As they entered the speakeasy, Rebekah saw the band front and center with the spot light on them. They were playing a fast pace jazz tune. Couples were out on the floor dancing.
"I need a drink," Nik said.
Sometimes Rebekah felt that his old age was getting to him; loud noises were starting to hurt his head.
"Let's get one of those private tables over there," She said over the noise of the band.
They walked closer to the wall where the private tables and booths were. The tables were all occupied, so they sat down with a man and a woman who were alone.
"Hey, this is our table! We paid good money for it," the man said.
"You will let us join you at this table," Nik said as the man's eyes dilated.
"Please, join us," the man responded.
"What is this?" Rebekah asked as she grabbed the woman's drink. She begins to protest but Nik told her to stop whimpering and answer the question. Rebekah took a sip before the woman had a chance to answer. "No thank you," Rebekah said as she put the glass back on the table and pushed it away from her. She called over a waiter and asked for something else.
"Should you be drinking alcohol? I am a doctor and I believe that it is not healthy for people of a young age," The man next to Rebekah said.
"Should any of us really be drinking?"
The man tried to tell her how drinking was bad for health and that's why he believes that alcohol is illegal. But according to him, he has already had too much in his life so why should he stop drinking it now?
"Shut up!" Rebekah said. "First off it is rude that you think I am so young. And second I don't care that you are a doctor."
Klaus laughed from the other side of the booth. "Dear sister, if only they knew your real age."
"Be quiet Nik."
She looked out on the dance floor and saw all the young people. This was only a night for them. Not for her. They would move on and start a family. Not her. They are normal. They are human.
Two couples from the booth next to them got up to dance. They looked happy.
The man next to Rebekah tried to talk to her again. Rebekah thought she compelled him to stop. She ignored him; her eyes were on the entrance.
A man with light brown hair and crisp green eyes walked in. He walked as if he owned the place. He grabbed a drink from a passing waiter.
It better not have been my drink, Rebekah thought.
He winked at some girls as they passed by.
Rebekah imagined his eyes winking at her. His eyes-.
"Rebekah," Nik said snapping her out of a trance.
"What Nik?"
"I'm going to get a drink. Do you want to come?"
"No. I'm fine."
"Alright, stay here. Do not leave without me." He stood and walked towards the girls that the handsome man winked at. Rebekah wished that men looked at her like that.
Rebekah's eyes went back towards that man. He was at the bar watching the band.
The lady at the table asked Rebekah if she would like another drink. Apparently her drink arrived and was consumed all without her knowledge.
Rebekah thought about drinking her, but decided against it. This couple is annoyed her. She wanted them away from her. All they seemed to do was chatter.
"Leave this place. Take your wife somewhere else," Rebekah said to the man. They left, So Rebekah sat alone. She leaned back and drank the almost empty remains of the table.
Rebekah got up and went to the bar for another drink. Maybe I will meet the handsome man, Rebekah thought. He was nowhere in sight when she reached the bar. She leaned against the high counter and watched the dance floor. There he was. His arms were around some skinny brunette. The band finished there song and Rebekah politely applauded like everyone else.
She saw the lead singer get off the stage. The singer walked over to the man Rebekah watched all night. The singer politely pushed the brunette out of her way. He grabbed the singer's hand and kissed it. He put the other hand on his shoulder and they began to gently sway to the music.
The bartender handed Rebekah a drink. She downed it as she saw her make him laugh. They are only friends, Rebekah thought. She was not sure, but to her that is all they can be. Klaus would say that Rebekah was jealous, and Rebekah knew she was since she never even spoke to the man.
He laughed again. I should remove myself from the situation before it gets worse, Rebekah thought. She knew Nik would not like it if there was a dead body.
Rebekah could see her brother from the corner of her eye. He came out of the shadows with a red headed girl.
Rebekah grabbed Klaus's arm and told him that they were leaving.
I know I know. Rebekah and Stefan will meet soon. Be patient! This will be a longer story, I'm just not sure how long yet.
And I know this chapter was kind of short and it mainly was a filler but it will be getting better!
