Elena POV

"Wow..." Kol spoke as his brothers came out of their stupor and nodded their agreement, their eyes remaining on my form as though they had never seen a woman before.

It was starting to make me feel uncomfortable as they scrutinised my body with their eyes, however I would not dare to voice my discomfort. I looked down at the floor hoping it would just open up and swallow me whole. I heard a throat clear from above me that gained my and the boys' attention.

There on the staircase stood Rebekah with an amused smile on her face, "Well are you four going to keep gawking at the poor girl or are you going to help her with her bags," she raised a perfectly plucked eyebrow questioningly a her brothers below her.

"Of course. Elena please allow me to take care of your bags," Elijah stepped forward, always the gentleman. He plucked the bags from my hands gently before he was pushed out of my line of sight.

"Move Elijah! Give us a chance to be the gentlemen for once!" Klaus smiled at me, doing his best to be charming.

Kol scoffed from his place behind us, "Nik you are anything but a gentleman!" He laughed.

"Shut it Kol!" Klaus shouted behind him, a grin still in place on his face, "So Love are there anymore bags in the car?"

I nodded, "Yes, there are a few in the trunk and on the backseat."

He nodded and made his way past me to get to the car in the drive as Elijah took the bags that he had previously taken from me up to my room. Kol glared in the direction Klaus had just went, clearly annoyed at his elder half-brother for being so rude to him. While Finn just remained silent.

Suddenly Kol flashed in front of me causing me to gasp and stumble backwards in surprise, however Kol's arm went around my waist, preventing me from falling or moving from my place in his arms against his chest.

"Fucking stupid shoes," He cursed under his breath looking at my shoes causing me to giggle, his head snapped up and a rare genuine smile grew on his face, "Careful Darling, Goddesses aren't meant to be on the floor," his eyes ran across my body, licking his lips as he gave a particularly hard squeeze to my captured waist. I blushed and looked down, concealing my red face with my hair.

"Kol let the girl go, I'm sure she wishes to change into something more…comfortable for tonights events," Finn finally spoke from his new place right behind his brother, his hand on Kol's shoulder which Kol quickly shrugged off before releasing me.

Rebekah scoffed from above us, "Stop being so barbaric. I swear every time you men see a pretty girl you can't keep your hands or eyes off her," She rolled her eyes. "Come on Elena let's go get changed." While she had been speaking she had been descending the stairs and now she was pulling me away from her brothers and back up the stairs. "Klaus put those bags in my room would you? Elena and I don't want to be disturbed!" Klaus growled in response causing us to giggle.

We passed Elijah in the hallway, he looked embarrassed and taken back. I offered him a smile which he returned as his eyes looked darker…lustful. I was puzzled, why would Elijah be embarrassed? Or even lustful only when his eyes met mine?

Realisation hit me as Rebekah pulled me into my room. There on my bed, splayed was the lingerie I had bought earlier today. It's not like I needed it, no one would see me in it, which disappointed me slightly, but Rebekah had made a pretty good case…

Rebekah dragged me into Victoria's Secret as I shook my head in disapproval.

"No Rebekah! I don't need lingerie! No one will even see it!" I protested.

"But Elena…" She whined. "I swear it'll make you feel a lot sexier and better about yourself. Besides…" She trailed off with a mischievous grin and I raised my eyebrow, "My brothers would absolutely die to see you in these!" She waggled her eyebrows suggestively as she held up a red lace thong and giggled.

I blushed heavily and shook my head with a roll of my eyes, "Rebekah! You know it's not like that between me and any of your brothers," I reminded her, however something deep down inside agreed with her. "Fine I'll get one thing."

I didn't stick with what I said of course, I got a lot more than just one thing. I had ended up getting: A red corset with matching stockings, underwear and garter belt,

A white lace baby doll with matching thong and stockings,

A black lace and mesh garter teddy with matching stockings,

And a baby pink lace bralet with matching stocking, underwear and garter belt also. With a few other random bits and pieces.

I had entertained Rebekah's teasing somewhat too much. I had thought about the guys as I had chosen my lingerie; the Red set for Kol (alluring and flirty)

The Black set for Klaus (dark and sinful)

The White set for Elijah (crisp and clean)

The Pink set for Finn (sweet and cute.) I shook my head, ridding myself of such sinful thoughts, my arm was linked with their sisters for God's sake.

Today had been a turning point for Rebekah and I, and I wouldn't let anything put us back in our old ways, especially not my attraction for her brothers. If I was going to be stuck here for the rest of my life I'll need a friend or two. I know she had been encouraging me to be with one or all of her brothers but I'm sure if I actually did give in to my imagination she would turn back into the raging bitch I'd known her as before.

Rebekah sat us both down on my bed, now rid of the bags that once resided there, "Do you believe me now?" She pressed.

"What do you mean Rebekah?" I groaned, I knew where this was leading.

She rolled her eyes, "You know exactly what I mean! My brothers are completely infatuated with you!" She exclaimed throwing her arms up in the air in frustration. "I mean when were Klaus and Kol ever gentlemen? Finn and Elijah? Yes. But not them!" She giggled, sounding just like a teenage girl, reminding me just how young she was when she was thrust into this life. "I mean, did you see the way they were looking at you? I have never seen any of them ever look at anyone like that! Not even at Tatia or Sage!"

I flinched at the mention of my eldest doppelganger, the one that started it all, it was still a sore spot for me, and it was after all her fault that I'm in this situation. If she had just kept her legs shut and chose a brother none of this ever would have happened. I don't know when I had become so hateful of her or Katherine but even their name would send me spiralling. "So should we change then?" I asked trying to change the subject and lighten the mood.

"We shall," Rebekah giggled and bounced off the bed before speeding off to her room and back, holding a pair of pink pyjamas. "I'll change in the bathroom then I hope you don't mind but I invited the boys to join us tonight to show you that we're not the monsters that we're perceived to be." She bounced off to the bathroom clearly excited to be spending time as a family. I noticed that both of my doors had been replaced most likely by Klaus's hybrid.

"No I don't!" I shouted through the door as I ruffled through the bag to find some pyjamas for myself. I picked out a ruby red pair to go with my hair and my new red slippers. I struggled to get out of the skin tight dress I had been wearing and pulled on the red tank and red shorts, that I only just noticed, as I looked in the full length mirror, showed a lot of cleavage and butt, with the slippers. Rebekah walked out of the bathroom with the pink identical pair of pyjamas and slippers on and her hair up in a messy bun. I copied her and put my hair up too.

"Thanks. We don't get to spend much time as a family," she looked down at the floor clearly upset and I pulled her into a hug. I don't know how or why we were so close now in such a short time span but I was enjoying it, she reminded me so much of Caroline. She looked up at me as she hugged me back, "You're like the sister I never had."

"We better get going downstairs now before the boys drag us down," I joked trying to lighten the mood.

"Yes we should. Come on then!" She pulled away and straightened herself before linking her arm with mine again, our skin in contrast to one another's, my skin golden, hers pale. Polar opposites yet here we are arm in arm like best buds. I sighed as she pulled me down the hallway and the stairway.

Time for family night…
