Her brothers all frowned at her and she struggled to sit up with Kol quickly helping her.

"Are you okay?" Klaus asked. Rebekah seemed to assess the situation.

"Yeah I'm…I'm fine," Rebekah frowned. Then she began to laugh.

"I think something's wrong," Kol worried.

"No I promise you'll understand when yours comes back," Rebekah said. Once she had reassured them they allowed her to finally get to sleep. She had words for a doppelganger, witch and baby vamp tomorrow.

"Hello Petrova, Baby-vamp and witchy," Rebekah smiled as she entered the kitchen the next morning. For a moment the three girls just stared at her. Then the looks on their faces disappointed Rebekah although she should have expected it. They were suddenly afraid of her.

"You got your memories back," Elena gasped.

"Yes, I did and speaking of that…I want to thank you for everything that you've done for my family and I these past couple of days. You had every advantage and possibly your only shot to have a go at my family but you didn't," Rebekah said.

"So what do you remember?" Bonnie asked.

"I remember everything from before plus everything while I didn't have my memories," Rebekah said. Bonnie, Elena and Caroline all looked nervous.

"Oh yes when my brothers get their memories back they'll all know what good care you took of them," Rebekah grinned.

Later she caught Elena alone in the garden.

"It's nice to really know myself again."

"I'm sure," Elena smiled.

"Did you really mean what you said about we all deserved a fresh start?" Rebekah asked.

"Yes and these past couple of days just confirmed that for me," Elena said. "When you want to you can all be very nice. It's hard not to be jaded by a thousand years of heartbreak and injustice. By the way I'd also like to apologize for daggering you in the back. You actually put your trust in me and I betrayed you. It was very wrong of me and I want you to know that I'm sorry."

"Thank you Elena," Rebekah smiled gently, "and thank you for helping my brother." Rebekah smiled as she saw the tell-tale signs. "You fancy him."

"I…"

"Elijah isn't the only one that can use that heartbeat trick," Rebekah grinned.

"I'm just here to help him until he gets his memories back. Though I suppose now that you're better you can look after your brothers."

"No stay," Rebekah insisted, "you'll do them more good than I ever could."
