Chapter 5
Before I went over to Jeremy's that night Rebekah said she was gonna pop back to the Lockwood cellar to see how her hostage was doing and afterward agreed to meet me at the Gilbert's. I asked her if she was ok with me telling my friends about her being a vampire earlier and Rebekah said she was fine with it, as long as they could be trusted no blood would have to spill.
So here I am now currently at the Gilbert residence with Jeremy, Bonnie and Matt grabbing myself a drink from the kitchen whilst laughing along with my friends as we waited on our pizza.
"So let me get this straight you called on some chick and told her Damon had been hitting on you? And now the big bad Salvatore is currently at this moment of time having his ass handed to him?" Matt asked in awe.
"Yep, on a platter" I grinned.
"And now the poor guys been tied up in the old Lockwood cellar for safe keeping?" asked Jeremy.
"That's right" I said.
"Well...that's just...genius" Bonnie grinned.
"Genius? Its awesome" Matt chuckled as we both then high fived each other.
"Thanks, though I can't take all the credit my friend did after all play a bigger part in this" I proudly said.
"Well I'd like to propose a toast, to a Damon free evening. May it prove be our best one yet" Bonnie said raising her glass as we all tapped our glass's together.
"Amen to that" said Jeremy taking a sip of his drink.
"I have just one question though" Matt said.
"I'm all ears" I said.
"Is your friend single? And if so does she live in Mystic Fall's?" Matt asked surprising me.
"Err yes and yes again" I said.
"What's her name?" Bonnie asked as the four of us went sit in the living room.
"Rebekah. Rebekah Van Helsing" I said.
"Is she hot?" Matt asked yet again surprising the rest of us and just then at that moment I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. Whipping it out I saw a message from Rebekah herself, coincidence much.
'You had better say yes'
RH
'Huh?' I thought to myself as I text back.
'What do you mean?'
RC
"Who's that?" Jeremy asked me curiously.
"Errr it's just my Aunt" I lied still staring at the message.
"Everything okay?" Matt asked.
"Yeah she's just checking up on me" I lied again.
'Tell your handsome friend that I'm hot'
;)
RH
Hooooold up a minute, was she…?
'Where exactly are you right now Ms Van Helsing?'
RC
I waited for her to text back, which didn't take long because a few seconds later my phone vibrated again.
'Knock Knock'
RH
Before I could question what that meant there was a sudden knock on the door as Jeremy then went to answer it, and as he opened the door a big grin made its way to my face. There in all her proud glory was Rebekah.
The sneaky cow had been listening in the whole time.
"Can I help you?" Jeremy asked her.
"Yes actually you can. I'm looking for a friend of mine, Renesmee Cullen. I was told by her Aunt that she was here" Rebekah said lying her face off.
"Yeah sure err come in" Jeremy said stepping aside to let her pass over the threshold.
"Why thank you" Rebekah said in a flirtatious manner as she walked into the living room.
I then hopped up from the couch and walked up to my cocky vamp friend.
"You just love to make an entrance don't you?" I asked chuckling at her.
"Well what can I say? Its what I'm best at, you of all people should know" Rebekah said grinning at me. "But enough about that how about you introduce me to your charming friends" she said as her gaze fell on Matt.
This had me rolling my eyes, of course she would go for the first guy who called her hot. Even if it wasn't to her face.
"Beck's allow me to introduce you to my totally insane yet hip crew. Jeremy Gilbert, Bonnie Bennet, and…"
"Donovan, Matt Donovan" Matt said coming to a stand as he took stuck out his hand for Beck's to take, as Jeremy, Bonnie and I looked at him astounded by his sudden brave behaviour.
"Rebekah Van Helsing, a pleasure I'm sure" Rebekah said smiling as she shook hands with my best friend.
Just then though Bonnie began to choke on her drink as I rushed over to pat her on the back.
"You ok?" I asked as she could do nothing but nod whilst coughing.
"Wait…" Matt said.
"Your Rebekah?" Jeremy asked her sounding as if he'd just been told she was his mother or something.
"The last time I checked I was, why is there a problem?" Rebekah asked kind of defensively.
"Is it true? I mean from what Renesmee's told us, did you really..." Matt spoke but was suddenly cut off.
"Teach Damon Salvatore's sorry ass a lesson?" Rebekah asked moving toward Matt until they were in breathing distance of each other. "Why yes I did, and I have to be honest I enjoyed every minute of making the bastard writhe in my hands" she seductively spoke leaning into Matt making me think she was actually gonna kiss him, but had me fooled as I saw her head tilt toward his ear. "You'll find I'm quite good at making others writhe" she whispered.
Ooooook that's enough.
"Boy that pizzas taking a long time to get here" I said trying to change the subject.
Poor Matt he looked just about ready to faint.
From the corner of my eye I saw how Bonnie had suddenly tensed up looking about ready dive in and take a bullet. What the heck was up with her?
I also didn't fail to notice the unpleasant look that seemed to have been glued to her face since Rebekah arrived. What was her problem? I didn't get why she was staring daggers at my friend who'd done nothing wrong to her.
"You alright Ren?" I heard a voice say as I turned to see Rebekah looking at me in concern.
"Oh yeah I'm fine, just spaced out for a minute" I said as she tilted her head a bit to the side, which was basically code for 'I know your lying'. "Back to more important matters though Jer is it cool that Rebekah hangs here for a while? Its just that she's sleeping over at mine tonight and my Aunt Rosalie's out at the minute" I politely asked.
"Err yeah sure, I mean if its ok with you guys" Jeremy said glancing between Matt and Bonnie.
"Erm..." Bonnie started.
"Nah that's cool I don't have a problem with it" Matt piped up.
"Why thank you, its lovely to find that chivalry hasn't died. I promise I won't bite, unless you ask me too" Rebekah said seductively biting her lip at Matt whom didn't seem to mind though. Oh no. Not. At. All.
'Hey Matt is that Banana in your pocket or is your ego pumping steroids?' I thought to myself humorously.
"Well I'm feeling pretty awkward right about now, Beck's why don't you and I have a talk outside because I suddenly feel as though the heat just rose up in here and I badly need some fresh air" I said grabbing her hand tugging her behind me as the two of us walked out to the porch.
"Rebekah Van Helsing you are the devil" I chuckled at her.
"The devil's daughter perhaps, but much prettier" Rebekah smiled.
"And how, I'm pretty sure if you'd managed to thrill him anymore than you had done you'd have caused poor Matt to faint" I told her.
"Oh I've only just started, if I could do that to him within five minutes imagine what I could do in an hour or two" Rebekah said wiggling her eyebrows.
Wrong, just wrong.
"If its all the same to you I'd rather not" I told her shuddering at the mere image as she just shrugged. "Moving off that subject though what happened with Salvatore? I thought you'd be gone alot longer than that, or is this just you taking a break?" I asked her in amusement.
"No this is me sulking because a certain brother of mine found it necessary to cut my fun short" Rebekah sighed.
"Your brother?" I questioned.
"Yes, my brother. The bore" Rebekah mocked.
"So what happened?" I asked curiously.
"Well I was in the middle of slicing Salvatore's wrists open after pumping him with a heavy dose of vervain when my brother decided to grant me with his unwanted presence" Rebekah said.
"I thought you wanted to see him?" I asked her.
"Well there's wanting to see someone and then there's my brother's irritating way of having poor timing" Rebekah said.
"I'm guessing you're reunion wasn't all hugs and smiles then?" I teasingly asked.
"Nope, especially not after he released Salvatore" Rebekah sighed in annoyance.
"He let Damon go?" I asked as Rebekah nodded, "why would he do that? Does he know Damon or something?" I asked feeling confused.
"He just said he was doing it as a token of good will for someone, but assured me that Salvatore meant nothing to him and if he had his way he would and I quote 'rip his insides out before separating his head from his neck'" Rebekah smugly spoke.
"Wow, I think its safe to say that by this point Damon can officially consider himself fair game to his on going line of future suspects. Though I do have to question who in their right mind would want to save his infuriating ass, besides your brother that is" I said.
"Believe me I would love nothing more than to know the answer to that question myself" Rebekah said leaning her back against the pillar.
"Well anyways where's this brother of yours at now?" I asked her.
"At this moment in time I'm not the slightest bit bothered, but knowing my brother he'll be floating about somewhere" Rebekah shrugged.
That was one thing that always got me about Rebekah, she mentioned any of her family members names. She always seemed to just refer to them as brother, mother, father, and you know stuff like that. Which was completely fine but I just failed to understand why she always stuck with the kinship instead of saying a name. It didn't make sense.
"I hope to meet him soon, I'd love to have another Damon hater on my team" I smirked.
"I'm faintly sure you already know him, in fact I take that back I'm entirely sure you know him" Rebekah smugly said.
"How could I already know him? I've never met anyone else with the last name Helsing" I told her feeling my eyebrows knit together.
I mentally began going through the list of people I'd met since arriving in Mystic Fall's, but none of them seemed to stand out to me as member of Rebekah's family.
"What's in a name? Think more along the lines of the accent" Rebekah smirked before heading back inside leaving me to my thoughts.
The accent?
Well Rebekah had an elegant like British accent but I didn't see what that had to do with…and that's when it suddenly dawned on me.
Nooooo. No way. Could it be?
Thinking back to when I'd first met Elijah he'd told me the names of his siblings. There was Klaus…err…oh god errr F-F-Finn! That's it! Erm Kyle? No Kol! Henrik and…
"SHUT UP!" I yelled out in shock.
"Hey who you telling to shut up!" I heard Jeremy shout from inside.
Oops.
"Sorry, not you!" I shouted back.
I couldn't believe it, there was no way. There was no freaking way Elijah was Rebekah's brother it just wasn't possible, I mean they both have different last names for gosh sake. If they were related why wouldn't either of them have told me?
But then again I already knew the answer.
Rebekah
She'd already provided me with the clues and all I had to do was follow the breadcrumbs. Her name, her accent, the way she spoke of her family but never mentioned names, she was stronger and much faster than Damon and also vervain hardly ever bothered her.
How the hell could I have not have figured this out before? It was as clear as day.
Rebekah wasn't just any kind of vampire. She was an original vampire, Elijah's sister.
Author's note: Well it took abit but she got there in the end lol.
In the next chapter we see Renesmee dealing with the new revelation and Damon will be out for revenge (oh dear).
