A/N: I originally wanted to do Rebekah/Bonnie friendship fic, because I love their characters. I thought it would be to one The Fray song and to fit it to the lyrics, their characters were supposed to meet when they were young. I soon dropped the idea of songfic, but I liked what I wrote too much to leave it unpublished.

Background: Esther returned to the living by the power of the dead witches. They realized it was for the best that Esther gets a new chance at raising her kids, so they put a spell on the Original vampires to all be children again. Rebekah and Kol, twins, were re-born the same year Bonnie, Caroline and Elena were born. They meet eleven years later, while escaping from Mikel who's eager to kill them, Esther and the kids come to lovely town of Mystic Falls.

They were eleven when they first met.

Bonnie walked into classroom with Elena. Two girls held hands because they felt scared and yet so grown up, they're starting middle school. They've only been in class for 10 minutes and Elena already whispeared how funny looking the teacher is looking into Bonnie's ear. Bonnie laughed louder than she planned. Everybody looked at her.

She hated that sort of situations, with everyone's eyes on her. Ever since she noticed she's reffured to as ''that girl who's mom left'' at age of seven, Bonnie hated attention. She figured if she makes herself invisible they will forget about her and her tragic family story. So she tried her best to be replaceable and unnoticed. It soon became very easy, Elena seamed to be likeable and talked about. This other girl Caroline Forbes too. They've been fighting for everyone's attention and a title of favorite girl in Mystic Falls kindergarten since the day they met. It was good for Bonnie, she could step aside and let them take the spotlight they love so much.

More than anyone else's Bonnie noticed a stare from a girl she did not know. The girl had shiny blonde hair and wonderful green eyes. She was really pretty, there was no doubt about it. Bonnie tried to remember, but she didn't remeber her from anywhere. This 11 year old must have been new in town. Bonnie smiled at the girl, she loved newcomers. It was a chance for some new friends. One who maybe doesn't have to know how her mom left and how she was a talk of the town for next two years.

Rebekah looked away from the girl who laughed so loudly at her friend's whispeard joke and looked up at her mother. "I don't like this town." Rebekah stated. When her mother offered her nothing better than a consoling smile she crossed her hands over her chest and pouted. Esther wanted to laugh, but controlled herself. Her daught was always so strong willed. She disliked not having her way.

"Bonnie Bennett."

"Here."

"You will be paired up with Rebekah Mikelson." The teacher said the information emotionless. However, that's not how Bonnie received the same information. She really wanted to be paired with Elena. The two hoped it would be that way. They were best friends for a while now and they got used to doing everything together. Bonnie frowned and when she turned to her right to look at Elena she noticed little girl had a frown on her face too. "You'll still be best friends." Mrs. Gilbert knelt and informed two said 11-year olds. They briefly hugged each other.

"It's just art." Elena said before her hands left Bonnie's back.

Bonnie scanned the group with eager eyes, waiting for her new project partner to emerge. She was said it wasn't Elena, but couldn't wait to get started. Art was one of her favourite subjects of all time, she was great at painting! There was that time when she was five, her and Matt painted Donovan family cat completely green. It was all very fun until Matt's parents came home and yelled. Bonnie bit her lower lip remebering.

The same blonde girl for earlier, who was obviously new approuched her. "Bonnie." The girl repeated her name in a serious, British accent.

Bonnie smiled, the girl was from UK. She has never met anyone outside of Virginia before. This was so exciting. "Hello." She beamed, holding her hand out happily. "You must be Rebekah."

It was a beautiful afternoon and after several hours of begging Bonnie managed to persuade her always so busy father to take her to the park. She would go to Elena's and ask Mrs. Gilbert or Elena's aunt Jenna to take her, but Gilbert's were in Florida, visiting relatives.

It was quite lonely without her friend, but to keep sad thoughts away, Bennett girl was determent to keep busy. She walked hand in hand with her father with smiled on her hand. Ignoring the fact he haven't looked away from the screen of his phone for one second.

In the park Bonnie saw a familiar face. Rebekah.

"Stop it!" The blonde girl yelled stubbornly at two boys who were wrestled on the ground. It was obvious Rebekah was not amused by their action, but it was also obvious two boys didn't care.

"Nik!" Rebekah whined. To get thier attention she kicked her foot on the ground. "Kol, c'mon!"

"We told you we won't play tea party with you, Bekah." Kol stopped hitting his older brother to tell to his sister.

Klaus smiled. "This is much more fun." He said before he threw dust into Kol's eyes.

"But you promised!" Rebekah's eyes started to get watery and Bonnie disliked to see her almost-friend hurt. Truth was, Rebekah was behaving like a brat during art class, but Bonnie truly believed people are not bad. They just sometimes act that way. She ran up to Rebekah. "I'll play with you." She smiled widely at her art partner.

Kol and Klaus stopped fighting immediately. They both got up, not taking their eyes of their sister's friend for a second. Rebekah didn't commentend on Bonnie's generous offer to play with her, she simply watched her brothers change their behaviour completely. With her arms crossed over her chest she hated that her brothers would act so politely around a girl, but never around her. She wanted to be treated like a girl, not one of the boys, just once.

"Rebekah's friend." One of the boys said and Bonnie looked away from Rebekah and into them.

Bonnie unconsciously nodded her head, even though Rebekah and her never exactly called each other a friend. "I'm Niklaus." 13-year-old boy introduced herself.

Bonnie smiled and was about to comment on how unsual and unique his name is when other boy spoke. "And he's lame. I'm Kol." What Bonnie will later find out, Rebekah's twin said. Kol was looking her straight in the eyes, but she soon noticed Niklaus rolled his eyes when his brother called him lame. Bonnie assumed they fight all the time.

Rebekah had only just settled down at the table when a familiar voice sounded next to her.

"Can I eat lunch with you?"

She briefly glanced up and there, as usual, was Bonnie Bennett asking permission to sit. Rebekah knew whatever answer she gave, the girl was still going to join her.

"No." She said. ''Go sit with Elena.''

''You don't like Elena.'' Bonnie sat down anyway. It was the same every day. Ever since they were paired on the first day, Rebekah just couldn't get rid of her. She threw all the verbal abuse she could and the girl would just keep coming back, every Thursday when they had lunch after art class.

''No I don't.'' Rebekah said honestly. She never had a problem with stating her opinon, it was the only way to ever get noticed in her family anyway. ''She's very adored. I really don't see way.''

''She's kind and she's really funny.'' Bonnie replayed. It wasn't that she felt obligualted to defend Elena, she simply wished they could all be friends.

"Why don't you hate me?" Rebekah said tonelessly, tilting her head. Suddenly changing the topic.

Bonnie had to admit, this was a good query. Why shouldn't she hate Rebekah? Never once, had she complimented Bonnie or even tried to be friendly towards her. What's the point in making such an effort for someone who doesn't even care? She bit her lip and gazed at the girl opposite her. There was something about Rebekah that Bonnie felt drawn to. She was sure there was more to her than just anger and resentment. Same for her three brothers she met; Elijah, Kol and Niklaus.

"You don't deserve it." She answered firmly.

Her words felt like a slap to the face but for some odd reason, Rebekah found herself smiling. She couldn't stand the girl, but it felt nice to have someone on her side for once. Maybe company wasn't so bad after all.

Next Thursday, Bonnie happily walked into art classroom. She had new crayons her father bought while he was on a buisness trip and Bonnie couldn't wait until she shared them with her friend, Rebekah. Also, Niklaus and Elijah whom she always saw when they picked up Rebekah from school promised to show her cool tricks they can do on skateboard and Bonnie was very excited about that. She was never really good at sports, but she liked watching others. So all in all, this was supposed to be a good day.

But Rebekah wasn't there. When Bonnie asked the teacher where's Rebekah, all she got was a shrug.

Next Thursday, she hoped to see Rebekah again, but she didn't show.

She stopped coming to school.

Elena's aunt Jenna explained it to her with ''They left town, sweetie.'' and gently touch on the cheek.

It wasn't enough.

A/N: I have no idea if this is any good. I simply wanted to put it out there. I'm not sure about any of the pairings (however I'm leaning towards Kol/Bonnie/Klaus triangle and Elena/Elijah). Still, nothing is carved in stone. Tell me who would you like to see, maybe what age would you like for Bonnie and Originals to meet again.

Comment, it would be a nice thing to do.
