Caroline found herself in rebekahs room packing up some clothes for her while a emotional wreck that was rebekah lay in tears on her bed she didnt say anything she just went straight to the closet grabbing the biggest bag she could find before going around the room picking up some clothes and putting them in it,
she had managed to get a few outfits in before rebekah realised what was happening "caroline, wh-what are you doing?" the blonde sat up using her hands to help prop herself up while looking at caroline who was going around her room ad putting things in her bag "your not staying here" "what are you talking about" "i cant believe what they just did to you so your not staying here in a house where your brothers are being they way they are" that caused her to get a surprised look on her face, "nik wont let me leave and its fine its not like its never happened before" she was even more surprised when caronline turned around sharply with the angriest expression on her face expecting the angry to be directed at her she schooled her features ready for the blow, that never came.
"no its not fine at all, you shouldnt of had to go through that at all and its even more not okay that your so used to it, you were so upset last night and before and they couldnt even realise it, im not saying that i know you or your antics but they should of known the difference between you faking it and actually being heart broken about something when me who barely knows you could see and whats worse is that now your expected to what get over it already after what spending a couple of hours in your room to cry alone and what be on your merry way and all that not a chance in hell, buddy, so your not going to be here in this house any longer you can leave your brothers to stew for a while" she had been awhile since any one had said anything like that to her in fact she doesn't even know if any one has ever said that and that gets her angry but also something about the way she was looking at her "i dont want your fucking pity caroline" she screeches at her storming off the bed.
"you think im pitying you" that makes her stop whats shes doing and face her "of course it is i break down in front of you and now you feel the need to pity me and i wont have pity im an original i dont need it" she shouts angryly "im not pitying you im trying to be there for you theres a difference" that sends her reeling back like a slap in the face would of "now pack some more shit of yours and ill meet you down stairs" "why are you being so nice to me you hate me" "well thats a conversation for another time so pack some things your not staying in this house any longer" as she reached the door she turns and says "by the way i never hated you" and with a small smile she left to go down stairs, ignoring the three originals that no doubt heard everything they where saying upstairs and just left heading straight to her car.
it had been hours since the girls had left, rebekah had come down not even 5 minutes after caroline and when Elijah tried to say something she shot him a look that made him sit back into his seat neither Elijah or Kol had been spoken to like that before not since they became vampires any one who tried where killed within seconds the sun was just heading down when Kol suddenly errupted out of his seat
"who does she think she is speaking to us like that, bekah is our sister, she has no right to dictate to me I'M KOL BLOODY MIKEALSON I should of ripped her heart" "you will do no such thing one hair of her head gets i'll" "oh right your still pining after her arent you brother its not like you havent already slept with her, whats it gonna take with this one for you to get it out of your system, jesus nik your so" with that klaus lunged at kol but stopped short when elijahs voice over threw them his very angry un controlled voice
"ENOUGH, the both of you, i fear that she was in fact 100 % right in her opinion of our family , what happened to us, we are not the same family that pledged our loyalty or love for one and other, you are not the same brothers i looked after, kol you used to be full of joy always running and getting in trouble but you were the same boy that picked rebekah up when those village boys pushed her in the mud and helped carry her home to be cleaned and helped her hide the ruined dress so that father wouldnt see it and then you helped her get back at each one of those boys but now you only find joy in killing, nikklaus is the same you where the one to always protect us from father, take our beatings for us even though you knew it would be worse for you , but you still did it any way you claim that miss forbes has a light about her to which i certainly agree but yours used to be just as bright but now your the brother who stabs us in the heart with a dagger if you feel the need to punish us or to use as a threat to keep us in line and you wonder why we dont trust you as much as we use to"
klaus and kol just look at elijah from the other side of the room dealing with another whiplashing truths being given "rebekah has become spoiled and ill tempered and you heard today is so un used to being actually cared for that she took it as some one pitying her" he said his a shake to the head before running a hand through his hair and messing with it "and what of you brother" klaus spits out "and me, im so delusional that it will stay the same that i continue to chase around after you cleaning your messes and rather then confront you all about them i just allow you to continue, we are not the brothers that we used to be, i took one look at rebekah yesterday as she was a crying mess and all i wanted to do was turn around and walk away, and when miss forbes told me to go i left with out a hesitation, I forgot how to comfort my own sister in her time of devastation, when was the last time we hugged each other or simply stopped and did something together with out voilence or threats of violence being around" he said before turning to look at them "answer that and if the answer to that question doesnt make you feel sick to your stomach then there is no hope for us any of us, and we should of allowed our brother to sacrafice himself and bring us all down with him" with that he picked up his suit jacket and turned to leave.
"where are you going brother" kol asks from his place next to klaus "to apoligise to our sister and miss forbes because she has been drawn into this shamble of what we call an actual family" with that he turns and leaves the others soon following.
at carolines-
they had been laughing and talking for hours after they got over her crying and telling caroline everything about her brother from his death and to last night with caroline crying to, to know eating junk food and trying on funny out fits and laughing and taking pictures on there phones.
"so when was the last time since suits were invented that you saw elijah wear something other then a suit" caroline asks "honestly i have no clue the last time i saw him in any thing other then a suit, suits werent around" "i cant imagine him with out one on" caroline says.
the silence grew for a while before caroline spoke "you know you said earlier that you thought i hated you" rebekah nods her head "i did, but that was just to hide the fact that i was extremely jealous of you but i could still see past that too which i tried my best to ignore, the same way i did with your brother" caroline said "were a pair then because i was jealous of everything that you had" that caused caroline to laugh "i cant believe that"
"why is it so hard for you to believe that some one could be jealous of you" "because your you, original vamp with all her (making hand gestures to show all of her) just, yeah and if my experience tells me anything i'll never be the one, theres always some one or thing that would and will come before that and i've excepted that, yeah it still hurts from time to time but im over it" rebekah looks at her really looks at her. "your wrong you know" "its true, my dad decided that he was gay and chose not to want me anymore then he came back and tried to cure me only to decide that he would rather die then to become a monster like me, my mom choose work over me, all the boys that ive ever been with wanted some one else" "that cant be true" "really, i lost my viginty to a boy who thought i was some one else and when he found out that it was me decided to ignore me, damon only used me to get closer to elena, stefan blew me off for her too , matt couldnt love me more then he did for her then could love me because i was a vampire its always the same no one ever chooses me" she says before taking a scoop of chocolate ice cream "what about tyler" causing her to snort "what time there was plenty, the time that he decide he would leave me to follow the wolf bitch that tortured me or the time he chose you to help with his transition in becoming a hybrid , or the time that he left and didnt want me to help with the sire bond or choosing to ignore me for the werewolf bitch that set up the sacrifice of the 12 hybrids and instead of blaming her for it he decides to blame me because i was the one to tell your brother about it when i found out after she snapped my neck of course then he left because of that and when klaus said he could come back i wasnt enough for him to stay because his angry towards your brother so which ever one of them seems appropriate for you so take your pick, im never the one even bonnie chose elena more to over me" she said looking down "i dont get why you havent killed her yet" "because im better then that and like i said i got over it or im still getting over it"
"i was so wrong about you, i was so jealous of you because i saw that you had everything that i wanted friends boyfriend you even have niks attention but your like me" "you know klaus said that to me once that if we met differently we'd get along i scoffed at it because i was already having trouble with trying to hate him and he had to go and through you into the mix so then i had to go and be double mean to you to get you to be bitchy back so that it was easier to hate you but even then i had trouble with it" she said with a shrug
"i had trouble hating you to at first i didnt but then i started to interact with you more and it grew diffulcult and i even had hope of being friends with you and the doppleganger whore before she went and shoved a dagger in my back" she said grabbing the ice cream of her and digging back into it "i honestly have no idea what stefan and matt and even damon god forbid sees in her, she stabbed me in the back, used and toyed with both salvatores killed finn, and orchestrated kol's death" "yeah im sorry about those things i didnt know any of those things where happen until they had already had happened"
"you know what we need not a fresh slate but a do over" caroline said perking up rebekah eyed him suspiciously "what are you getting at" "im saying that lets be friends, real friends, were we talk share secrets gossip over boys and give each other advice and all that" "really" she said hope leaking into her voice before she recovered quickly "really" "yeah but before you agree just know that once your in your in for life and im not exactly easy to deal with" "have you seen me" she said causing them to laugh "duh i can see your arse from a mile of" she said with a laugh that caused her to start falling of the bed rebekah grabbing her but ending up on the floor next to her as they both fell into laughter.
"freinds ive never had that well a real one before" they shared an honest smile before caroline groaned "what what is it" she asked getting panicky "pregnant women get fat" "so" "im pregnant bekah im gonna get fat!" she said standing up and begining to regret ordering pizza "you just called me bekah" "thats not the point im gonna get fat!, FAT" she screeched.
outside the brothers were just about to knock when they heard her screech the word fat causing them all to look at each other confused before knocking.
"i'll get it" rebekah said going towards the door before stopping short "what is it" "my brothers are here i-i cant" caroline smiled before moving past her "i got it" before heading to the front door with a gratefull smile from the other blonde.
"well wheres the pepperoni" she asked opening the door to there confused faces "miss forbes we're here to see rebekah" "i know but right now she doesnt want to see you" "come on love, just get her for us" "you know that she can hear you but right now she doesnt want to see you not if your going to berate her" "miss forbes-" "caroline" "caroline we have just come to apologise" "look, right now shes having fun, were having fun and she doesnt want to deal with you so for once just leave her to have some good old fashioned girl bonding and let her be, i know you want to apologise but right now respect her wishes and leave it for tomorrow i'll drop her off at noon and you can talk then but for now just let her be okay be her big brothers for the night and let bekah have this, she needs this" caroline says with a stern look "of course till tomorrow" Elijah says before turning and walking away half dragging kol with him leaving Klaus standing there.
"your not mad at me love are you" he ask vunrebility seeping into his voice causing her to quickly kiss him to which he responds before she pulls back "yes and no" he quirks his eyebrow at her in confusion "no for us but as bekahs friend yes, you need to remember that despite her age she still that little girl that looks up to you all of you and needs you to treat her like a real person or like you used to i'm not saying i know of your relationship when you were human or through out the years but if you have any chance of fixing your relationship you need to seriously think about whats gone wrong over the years and then in that you'll find the solution to fix things but be warned it wont be easy" before either can speak any more the pizza guy walks up "3 large" "yep thats me, how much" she asks the pimpled teen "the man at the end of the drive paid" "oh well thanks" "have a good night" then he turned and left.
"so were ok then" "yep" he goes into for a kiss but she steps back "i thought you just said were okay" he asks confused "we are but as bekahs friend i have to remain strong and until she forgives you there will be no kissing, the other one was the only one you get" "and pray tell why this has any thing to do concerning my sister" she rolled her eyes and let out a sigh "uh, because your her brother and my iuh i dont know what to call you and me boyfriend seems to tame and childish considering it involves you and your not a boy your , your well you and as her friend it puts me in a difficult situation so when you've done something wrong that hurts her or makes her angry i have to side with her on it and if its the other way around i side with you, that way every one wins" she says with a smile "im not sure how i win in this situation" "you dont because your the one in the wrong in this circumstance, and im not technically wining in this either because your stubborn so just make sure your apology knocks her socks off so that i can kiss you agian with out feeling like im letting her down" he still looked confused "im still not quite following" she sighed heavily this time "if i was just rebekahs friend and not involved with you personally and she came to me hurt because of her brother then as her friend i would side with her and be angry with her about it until its been dealt with, so thats what im doing im ignoring the fact that we are involved so i can do my friendly duties, now go away my pizzas getting cold and your taking up to much of our girl time" finally getting a hang of it he smirked before giving her a departing kiss on her cheek to join his brothers at the end of the path.
as caroline walked back to her room she was met with such a forceful hug that it squashed the pizza's between them "bekah, the pizza" she said while being hugged causing rebekah to pull back and say a small "oh sorry" "thats alright i like squashed pizza any way, what was that for" she asked refering to the hug "that was a thank you for standing up to my brothers no one has done that for me in a really long long time, it was nice" she said "well thats whats friends are for, now movie time" caroline said picking up her remote to begin watching a walk to remember.
