"You really are a hopeless fool," Nik saya, taking a step closer to her as he dips a dagger into ash. "Did you really think I'd let you leave. You'll blab everything to the first boy who bats his eyes at you. It's pathetic. Did you really think this one would be any different just because he took you on some vacation?"
She tries to get out, but Stefan blocks her way. Stefan who's asked her why she stayed before, who knew she had been happy with Neal in Cape Verdi before he had talked into coming back. The Stefan she had once loved.
"I'm sorry, Rebekah."
It stings, that he had handed her back to her brother after convincing her to come back here in the first place, but fine. She probably shouldn't be surprised. And she's too tired to try much harder to get out, too emotionally drained. So she turns back towards Klaus.
"Go right ahead. Laugh at the girl who loved too easily. But I would rather have lived my life than yours, Nik. No one will ever sit around a table telling stories about a man who couldn’t love. Do it. Look me in the eye and do it, you coward!"
He doesn't. Look her in the eyes, that is. But the dagger slides into her all the same.
She's given to Stefan for save keeping, and currently her body is stashed somewhere within the Salvatore Boarding house. It's been weeks since she left Neal in Cape Verdi. Any phone calls, texts, or other forms of contact he's tried to made would be left unanswered.
There's a reason why she had informed him about the daggers before. In case she ever up and disappeared on him like this.
