i'm coming home to breathe again [tag Damon and Elijah]

"Did you message Elijah yet?"  Rebekah asked, looking to Damon as she exited the younger vampire's bedroom.  Her hair was still damp from an earlier shower, spilling down her back in soft curls as she walked around in nothing but a pair of panties and a shirt that she had borrowed from Damon.  He called it a wifebeater shirt which was a truly

Damon hadn't named the shirt, so he was pretty much going to ignore any offense at it--blame the humans, they were always giving things stupid, offensive names. But he definitely liked the look of it on her, and took advantage of the peek when she bent over, giving her an admiring once-over from where he was sprawled on the sofa

At least Damon was being a lot better about not distracting Elijah because Rebekah would have totally not cared. She had a tendency to demand attention when she wanted it but luckily she had been distracted by a shower and a naked, wet Damon.

Catching the look from Damon as she looked at the nail polish again, she nodded a bit. "Okay." She hadn't seen twilight and so she didn't know about sparkling vampires and whatnot but she had been leaning towards the plumberry color anyhow.

Putting the glittery nail polish away, she leaned back on the couch, shifting to make herself comfortable as she cracked open the bottle. The scent of nail polish filled the air, causing her to wrinkle her nose but clearly it didn't bother her enough to keep her from starting to do her nails.

Damon didn't have any concept of Twilight being a thing somewhere--but he'd met Edward, seen him around, and avidly disliked him. The fact that he sparkled just added insult to injury. He gave her an approving look for taking his suggestion and going with the non-sparkling nail polish.

He wrinkled his nose a little at the scent, as well, but she looked really cute sitting there in his shirt, so he wasn't going to protest too loudly. Instead, he pulled out his messenger and went ahead and sent Elijah a message.

"So...were you shopping for a special occasion, or just strappy heels for fun?" He didn't know of anything in particular coming up, but that didn't mean anything. To be fair, he didn't always pay the best attention to village events unless they were loudly announced.

She could her him using his messenger and she smirked faintly, knowingly, before glancing up. "Asking my brother to come save you?"

Focusing back on her nails, she shrugged a bit at the question. "I was bored." And she had just gotten paid, so why not?

"I'll probably wear them to work this weekend."

Truthfully, she had needed the distraction. Having Elijah back in the village was nice, it was exactly what she wanted, but he had come with news that just didn't sit well with her and there were times when it weighed on her. Times when nothing could distract her from the dark and dangerous thoughts that bothered her.
