Author's Note: Just a short insight on Rebekah's feelings towards Klaus's new demeanor. Let me know what you think!

Throughout everything they had been through she expected more from her brother. Not a betrayal as cruel as this-not poisonous words. They had hurt more than the ache on her neck. Rebekah sat up to massage the sore area, wincing when trying to piece together her feelings. It was all too much to handle at this point; Klaus had made it clear of what he thought.

Did she really mean nothing to him anymore? What ever happened to always and forever? She wanted to blame the situation on something-or someone. And when the image of her trunk buddy from earlier that day came to mind, she growled. It was Caroline's doing for the rift in the siblings' bond. No woman had ever caught his interest until now. Yes, it 'was' a betrayal-to Rebekah at least.

They'd been close for centuries, a bond that could never be broken. Klaus was everything and more to his little sister; she'd follow him everywhere. That was why it was so hard to come to grips with reality. Her brother was cruel, heartless, yet afraid. Afraid to be alone in this eternal existence. Maybe if he wasn't so oblivious he'd realize Rebekah was there for that reason only. She made it clear when the promise spilled from her lips. That the two would be together forever-family came first.

So what was she to do now? Her right hand was placed in a puddle of the blood she squeezed from its bag. Contemplating on whether to clean up, the miserable Original stood up to wash her hands. Revenge was an option but killing Caroline might lead to 'her' death. Rebekah sighed and dried her soaked fingers, plotting of ways to make her brother pay. He had to learn his lesson somehow-maybe ignoring him would be best. Then again if he didn't care about her any longer, why attempt to gain his attention? The hopeless cycle of pleasing her sibling was tiresome.

She decided on obeying Klaus's wishes-no matter how much it hurt. Hoping that eventually he'd come running to her for forgiveness. But Rebekah knew the chances of that ever happening were very unlikely.
