"WHERE WHAT?!" Caroline shrieked furiously, fists clenched at her side as her blue eyes glared at the bikini clad Original lounging on the deck, sipping a margarita lazily.
"For the thousandth time, where in Jamaica. Now, will you shut up with all the shrieking? I am trying to relax here and your annoyingly pitchy voice is making it very hard." Rebekah drawled, rolling her eyes at the baby vampire as she gathered her long blonde hair up into a ponytail, adjusting her green bikini strap, she turned away from the other blonde dismissively, making her tighten her jaw angrily.
"Oh, I'm sorry, sometimes I get like that when people KIDNAP ME!" Caroline said in a deceptively sweet voice, shouting the last part at Rebekah's turned back, looking back at her defiantly when she spun around and glared at her furiously.
"What's going on here? What's with all the yelling?" Ilia asked, walking out onto the deck in her cherry red bikini, looking at them with raised eyebrows as she finished braiding her hair off to the side.
"Caroline here," Rebekah started, glaring daggers at Caroline as she sneered her name, "Seems to think we kidnapped her. Hence all the shrieking."
"What? Care, you think we kidnapped you?" Ilia asked quietly, gazing at her with wide, sad green eyes, making the other blonde deflate and feel incredibly guilty.
"No, I just… I can't stay here, Lia. My friends are in danger back in Mystic Falls and here I am vacationing in Jamaica on a private island with Rebekah." Caroline explained, sneering the Original's name in return, looking imploringly at the blonde Petrova and hoping that she'll understand.
"You say that like I'm just jumping with joy that you're here, ruining my vacation, might I add." Rebekah said, smiling bitterly before turning to a slightly exasperated Ilia, "Why don't you just let her go? She's obviously in a rush to get herself killed."
Ilia rolled her cat green eyes, shooting Rebekah a stern look, before turning to Caroline, "Look Care, I understand, I really do, you feel guilty and useless just sitting here while your friends are in danger and you want to go and help them but you have to understand that there's nothing you can do. I know that sounds harsh but it's the truth. Alaric is an Original Hunter, Care, you can't fight him, especially not in the weak state your still in. There's nothing you can do, Care, the best thing for you to do is stay here, let us protect you, and heal up. And it's not like you're a prisoner, you can call your friends to make sure they're okay."
Caroline stared at her powerful friend, biting her lip as she took in her words, she didn't want to believe that there was nothing she could do but at the same time she knew it was the truth. And isn't this what she's wanted the whole time? Someone to take care of her, to put her first. Hadn't she wanted to get away from Mystic Falls? To see the world? She was finally getting what she wanted, was she really going to throw it, and her friends kindness, away?
"I can call them? Now?" The baby vampire inquired, picking at her yellow sundress
"Yeah, of course. Just… stay? Please? I don't want you to get hurt again." Ilia told her quietly, looking at her worried and concerned for her safety.
"… Okay, I'll stay." Caroline conceded, making Ilia beam happily and lunge forward to hug her fiercely, knocking the wind out of her.
"Great." Rebekah sighed unhappily, crossing her arms huffily, pouting, making Ilia roll her eyes at her best friend
"Oh, come on, Bekah, aren't you happy you get me all to yourself?" Caroline asked mockingly, smirking smugly at the huffy Original
"Oh, of course, this is exactly how I imagined my first vacation since I've been un-daggered would go." Rebekah drawled sarcastically, knocking back her margarita
"So, just out of curiosity, where exactly are we? I mean, I know we're in Jamaica but what island are we on?" Caroline questioned wonderingly, looking out at the beautiful blue ocean as she tugged off her sundress to reveal her white bikini.
"Well, I wanted to call it Isle De Psychotic, thought it'd be real suiting considering who owns it, but they all just growled at me and threatened to throw me in the ocean." Ilia remarked, smiling wryly at Caroline, "Ironic, huh?" Caroline chuckled and Rebekah rolled her eyes, although her lips did quirk up as she could appreciate the humorous irony and truth in the statement.
"Kol wanted to name it Isle De Hot Stuff and then told us that, besides Ilia, we would all have to leave as we weren't 'suiting to the name'. Nik threw him about seven hundred feet into the ocean, by the time he got back to the beach, he looked like a drowned irritated puppy. It admittedly was very funny, although he didn't seem to appreciate our laughter." Rebekah recounted, smiling warmly as she looked back fondly to the day when they acted like an actual family, making Caroline gape at her as she had never seen the usually cold Original ever smile like that.
"Elijah just wanted to simply call it Isle De Originals." Ilia said, smirking at the blandness of the title
"Original." Caroline joked dryly as she piled her hair onto of her head, tying it up
"That's what we said." They told her in unison, grinning at each other as they thought back to how much fun they had that day, goofing around and laughing, "Kol too, but we got away with it, he just got thrown in the ocean again."
"To be honest, I think he was exasperated and just wanted to get away from us by then. I mean, we had been arguing over that damn name all day, sitting on this very deck actually. We had started at sunrise and by the time we finally settled on a name the sun was setting." Ilia said, looking out at the sky nostalgically, a sweet smile gracing her lips
"Well, don't leave me hanging here, what's the name?" Caroline asked impatiently, dancing in her seat in anticipation
"Caroline," Ilia started, getting up and walking to the edge of the deck, turning to face them, she held her arms out, showcasing the beautiful beach, ocean and sky behind her, "Welcome to Isle De Loved Ones."
I do not own Twilight or TVD. I'm thinking about introducing Alice and Jasper in the next chapter. And for the ones who want Klaus and Kol back, don't worry, they'll be back in the next chapter. In shorts and nothing else. Would you like to see a flashback chapter of the day that's mentioned in this one? If you would tell me and I'll start working on it!
