"So let's see if I have this straight,"
"Freya is the oldest? The long lost sister. The one who had to live with your aunt when you were growing up?"
"Mhmm," Rebekah nodded as she sat at her vanity, preening.
"Finn is the boring one…?"

Rebekah nodded rolling her eyes at the very thought of him.
"He's married to the redhead one. Has about a million kids and… what exactly does he do again?" Enzo asked, absentmindedly tapping away on his phone.
"It hardly matters," she scoffed. "Just pray you're never left alone in a room with him."
"Next, Elijah; lawyer, slightly self-righteous, wears a lot of suits," he continued "-and married… to Katherine, if I'm not mistaken?" Enzo questioned, looking up for confirmation.
"Yes, unfortunately, that money-grabbing, she-devil, is my brother's wife, " Rebekah sneered in contempt.
"Then of course then there's your dear brother Klaus. Who is, of course, my biggest fan," Enzo said dryly.
Rebekah sighed.
"Try to pay my darling brother no mind. I love you and that's the only thing that's important. Besides-" she said leaning closer to the mirror to apply her lipstick. "-I wouldn't worry too much about Niklaus this year. I'm quite certain Caroline's got him tied up by his balls on a very, very short leash," she added, tittering quietly to herself.
Enzo gave a hint of a smile.
"Well I suppose it will be nice to have Caroline around for a little moral support when I meet the rest of your family," Enzo hummed thoughtfully. "Speaking of, your brother says he can make it to dinner after all,"
Rebekah whipped around and gave him an incredulous look.
"Kol!?"
Enzo nodded.
"When?!"
Enzo held up his phone.
"Just now,"
When Rebekah still looked confused he continued.
"Who did you think I'd been texting all this time?" he asked.
Rebekah's mouth tightened until it was the same size as a small penny.
"I've been calling my brother non-stop for the better part of 3 weeks and the only way I get a response from him is via a text message - addressed to you!?"
Enzo gave her a wide-eyed looked and shrugged.
She let out an irritated huff and turned back to her mirror.
"You and my brother are far too close." she remarked, picking up her mascara.
Enzo let out a disbelieving laugh.
"Anyone else would be happy? You know that I'm at least I'm bonding with one of your siblings, now," he pointed out.
"Yes, and out of the five of them you just had to pick Kol," she griped.
"Come now love," he smirked, wandering over to her. "If I didn't know better I'd say you were jealous,"
Rebekah snorted in a very unladylike fashion.
"I'm not jealous of that half-brained prick,"
"Now that's not very nice is it?" he mock-scolded her, moving to drop a kiss on her bare shoulder.
She scowled at him in the mirror and shrugged him off.
"If you love my brother so much, perhaps you should be dating him instead of me," she hissed getting up and stalking toward the bathroom.
"It's not a half bad idea," he murmured. "He's a lot nicer to me,"
"I heard that!" she called out.
Enzo chuckled and bent down to plug his phone into the socket.
"Put your shirt on, we're leaving soon. Elijah's expecting us at eight," Rebekah said through the door.
"I suppose we mustn't be late. What with this being the day I'm meeting your mother and all," Enzo added.
"Oh mother's not coming," she replied, poking her head around the door.
He frowned.
"But she said-"
"-My mother says a lot of things. For example a year ago she said, that our father's death was an accident but who really believes that?" she exclaimed.
With that, Rebekah casually strolled out of the bathroom and leant in to place a chaste kiss on Enzo's cheek.
"Come on darling, let's try to get there before all the good booze is gone,"
She left Enzo alone in the room with a bewildered expression.
He shook his head, wondering exactly what he'd gotten himself into.
