Which One Is Better
Drabble based on a post I made on tumblr about Vaughn and Klaus.
The angry fights between the men were getting out of hand and becoming a huge nuisance in the girl's lives. They each just wanted to get through one visit without someone throwing angry slurs at the other.
It was understandable really, though. Klaus didn't trust anyone, much less amember of the five, especially after the whole Alexander debacle, and Vaughn, as a member of the five didn't trust Klaus—- or Caroline for that matter, but he seemed to at least trust her more.
Still, it was annoying for both Rebekah and Caroline that their boyfriends couldn't get along. They had seen past their differences, why couldn't the men? Caroline realized it was probably much harder for Rebekah than herself; she had no emotional attachment to Vaughn, but Klaus was Rebekah's brother. She longed for her brother's approval, and it hurt her that he wasn't happy with her decision.
So Caroline and Rebekah came up with a plan. They confronted their respective boyfriends with the threat of no sex for at least a week if they didn't try to get along. Rebekah forced Vaughn into the house, and the girls fixed their boyfriends with what they hoped was a threatening look. And then they promptly left them alone.
In retrospect, they probably should have stayed as some sort of mediary force to keep the violence to a minimum.
The girls returned from their shopping trip, each laden with bags, to find the door on Klaus and Caroline's house hanging by it's hinges. And that was just the start of the destruction. Glass littered the foyer, paintings hung haphazardly on the wall, furniture was broken everywhere, the walls sported holes, and the faint smell of blood coated the air. Rebekah and Caroline shared a worried look before speeding off to find the men.
The angry voices of the objects of their affection were soon heard coming from the backyard, and the girls burst through the door, but they went unnoticed by the two fighting men.
"Well my accents better than yours!" Vaughn shouted angrily, and the both Rebekah and Caroline fought to hold back a giggle.
"Really mate? That's what you're going with? Because my accent is obviously better."
This went on for the next several minutes, Klaus and Vaughn going back and forth on who they thought had the better accent, Caroline and Rebekah eventually having to sit down on the grass as they tried their hardest not to laugh at the absurdity of the fight. Accents? Seriously?
Klaus happened to glance over, and at seeing them, a wicked gleam filled his eyes. "Caroline, love, which of our accents do you think is the best?"
It really wasn't fair of him to ask her, because, as their nights filled with passion flooded her mind, she immediately burst out, "Yours." To his self-satisfied smirk.
"Bex, how about you, whose accent do you think is better?" Vaughn asked in return.
Rebekah chewed her lip nervously, knowing that whatever she answered would get her in trouble with one of them. "Well, I suppose, I prefer Vaughn's accent."
The Great Accent Debate, as it came to be called, went on for centuries, Vaughn and Klaus asking every person they came upon whose accent they thought was better. But that was the thing, their fight actually brought them together.
