Author's Note: Thanks again for all the praise. Bummed by tonight's episode (slightly because of no Bonnie when this episode should have focused a lot on her, but I was hoping to see if I could try to keep this as Canon as possible but not much went on that could pertain to this story...)...eh well

Enjoy

Why did she not get a table? No the baby vamp had to get a booth. She hated booths. Booths were small and downright uncomfortable to her. Why was she even here? It was not that she and the baby vamp did not get alone, on the most basic level. However Bonnie was not here. That was because she was mad at the witch. Just thinking about their last outing togethe hurt her. She shifted a little in the booth as Caroline sat down, with relative ease. How does she do that?

"Hello Rebekah" Caroline greeted in such a chipper voice. Rebekah continue to shift, slightly messing up her clothes. She finally gave up , pulled out her phone and checked the time. Once she completed that she looked at Caroline and gave her a tight smile.

"Hello Caroline. May I ask why we are in a booth and not a table?"

Caroline was looking at a menu, pretending to gaze down it. Rebekah wondered why she did that. The original knew that she never ate anything now that she was a vampire. Food was more like a luxury to them. They could eat and even taste it, but it was not a necessity. The little packets of blood she had stored in Klaus' fridge were though. She then thought about Caroline. Did she eat furry little creatures like Stefan did, or did she go down the sensible and much more tastier route and nibble on blood bags like they were Capri Sun juice packs? She did not have time to think about that as she sensed Matt coming toward them.

"Hello ladies, now what can I pretend to get for you two?" both girls smiled at the teen boy. If anyone knew the backstory to this, they would have thought there would be a mass amount of tension. But somehow, Mr. Donnovan never has tension among his personal life. Caroline ordered a chocolate milkshake, and Rebekah ordered the grilled chicken salad with the homemade dressing.

"Well someone's hungry."

"I eat my emotions, and unfortunately eating people right now is a no no."

Caroline nodded in agreement. Rebekah saw this as the time to ask why she was here. But she did not need to. Instead she picked up the scent of Bonnie, getting stronger as she got closer. Of course. This was nothing but a set up.

"You tricked me."

"I only asked if you would like to hang out at the grill while Matt was on his shift."

"No you told me. Also you said nothing about Bonnie."

"Well oops what an unfortunate coincidence" Caroline played it off as sweetly as she could, but Rebekah could recognize the level of actual condescending that was taking place. She was tricked by a baby vamp. Maybe that white oak was not a bad idea.

"Hey guys. Caroline." Bonnie looked at Caroline, slightly nervous. She then turned to Rebekah, who looked as if she was sucking her teeth.

"Rebekah."

"Bonnie."

Needless to say this started out awkward. Bonnie sat beside Caroline, and once Matt saw her he got her her usual. Of course it took a little longer for her food, but the girls decided to wait it out a bit. Once everything was in order, they got to eating. During this time Caroline was the center of the conversation. Both Rebekah and Bonnie were ignoring each other. Rebekah because she was angry, Bonnie because she did not know what to do. Caroline found it annoying to be the one at the center when it was not her intention. So after twenty minutes of awkward conversation, she decided it was tie to repair this thing they called a friendship.

"Okay, so you both know you guys are here to talk it out right?"

Despite Bonnie and Rebekah looked at Caroline, the baby vamp was well aware that their attention was on each other.

"So I suggest someone says something."

"How do you know one of us just doesn't leave Caro?"

"Good faith Bon."

At first no one said anything. Rebekah focused on twirling a wilted green around the remaining dressing, and Bonnie nibled on a chip. Caroline just sat there staring at both of them. Were they both this stubborn? It was then Rebekah who got things going.

"So Caroline, what is Bonnie's house like? I would imagine it is so cold and lonely seeing how her father basically ignores her existence."

Bonnie stopped nibbling on her chip. Even Caroline winced at that statement. This was about to get ugly.

"Why would you evn bring that up, Rebekah?"

The Original sat back nonchalant, she looked down at her phone as added emphasis that this conversation was not of any interest or investment to her. Caroline could see right through that. Bonnie could too, but she saw this as a petty attack.

"Look who is talking about one's family. At least my my did not try to kill me, and thinks I am an abomonation."

"No she just abandon you for a good portion of your life."

"Nice, and that may very well be true, but she tried. She did not go and smile to my face only to try and stab me in the back, pun very much intended."

"Ooh we are playing that game?"

Rebekah's flashed something deadly, only to be matched by Bonnie's. Caroline decided to intervene quickly.

"Rebekah's hurt because you did not let her in when she was at your house!"

Both Bonnie and Rebekah were about to say something, most likely something they would both regret, but stopped. They turned to Caroline, who looked worried, but ready to physically get involved. They then turned to each other. at that moment both girls calmed down, but neither speaking up. It was Bonnie who decided to break the silence this time.

"Rebekah, is this what this has been about?"

The Original leaned back into the uncomfortable seat. She simply nodded.

"I...I don't know what to say."

"You couldn't even let me in. I was hanging onto your window like a mad woman, and we were ahving a friend moment, and you could not even let me in. I mean I know we just became friends, but I thought you could trust me; I have invested a lot in this. I gave up things I like for you, I even put my feelings for Elena away (well just settled for passive bitchiness), I don't even attack humans anymore. I have gone from an actual threat to Damon. Over you. And for you to stop yourself from inviting me in, as if thinking against it shows that you don't trust me. I thought we were at that place where there was actual trust and what not."

"Rebekah."

Bonnie could not even begin her next thought. Rebekah had gotten up, making sure to leave enough money for her meal, and left. Bonnie felt herself sink into the seat. She was not in the best of moods today, but this had just put her in a further worse place. After a few more seconds of sulking, thinking she could not screw this up any further.

A/N: Another not great chapter but I couldn't just resolve this right now...that wouldn't be fun. Next chapter was going to include tidbits (you know despite4 being a month later and all that) of tonight's episode, but not much was given. So now I have to rethink the next few chapters. Eh. Anyway thank you for reading. If I am lucky to chapters will be up by tomorrow afternoon and what not.

Read. Review. Critique. Enjoy.
