Eira had fallen asleep again talking to Klaus. It was now morning and she was eating breakfast before going to school. Her phone was on the counter and she watched it like it was a temptation. It was.
Klaus was in her mind now and he wasn't leaving anytime soon. She didn't really want him to. She yearned to talk to him again even though they only spoke hours ago.
Eira grabbed the phone and held it. She thought for a moment before she let her impulse take over. She called Klaus.
"I'm starting to think you're obsessed with me, love," Klaus answered on the first ring. Just the sound of his voice made her heart jump.
"I just wanted someone to talk to," she lied. She only wanted to talk to him.
"And what did you want to talk about?" Klaus asked.
"Anything," Eira answered, dreamily, and Klaus chuckled.
"Then talk about anything," Klaus stated, just wanting to listen to her voice.
"You make me smile a lot," Eira blurted out the first thing that came to her mind.
Klaus smirked and then thought,"I wish I could see you smile."
Eira blushed and bit her lip,"When you come back here, I promise you'll see me smile."
Rebekah came into the kitchen and signaled for Eira to follow her as they were leaving for a school. Rebekah gave her an odd look, wondering why she was talking to her brother. Eira followed Rebekah to the door while talking to him.
"I have to go," Eira sighed but then she smiled. "I'll call you later."
"I'll be waiting for when you do," Klaus smiled and she hung up.
She got in the passenger seat of the car outside with a huge smile on her face and Rebekah looked at her.
"Since when do you talk to my brother?" she questioned.
"Since two nights ago," Eira answered, still in a daze.
Rebekah shook her head,"You're so taken with him."

Elena, Damon, and Alaric were looking at the drawings on the wall of the cave that Mason showed Damon. Elena wondered why Eira wasn't with Damon since she usually was always with one of her brothers.
"Where's Eira?" Elena questioned, looking at Damon.
"I didn't want to bring her here. I've been hearing little snippets of phone calls between her and Klaus."
"She's talking to Klaus?" Elena gasped, shocked.
Damon nodded,"Yep, she's in cahoots with the enemy."
"I hate it," Damon groaned.

It was after school and Rebekah had cheerleading practice. Eira waited for her and Elena stopped by and wanted to know more about the history of the Originals. Elena threatened Rebekah with the knowledge that they were going to wake Mikael.
After cheerleading practice, Rebekah took the both of them back to the Salvatore boarding house. She called Elena, inviting her to come over so she could tell Elena what she wanted to know. Rebekah didn't want Mikael to be woken up.
Then Rebekah organized a runway show in the house by compelling girls to wear one of the many homecoming dresses that Rebekah picked out. Rebekah insisted that Eira go to the dance and she already had her dress picked.
"I like the blue and the red," Eira said as she looked at the dresses the girls were wearing. "But leaning towards the red."
"Hey! What's up?" Rebekah greeted Elena cheerfully as she walked in.
"You invited me over? To talk?" Elena reminded.
"Okay, now twirl please," Rebekah ordered the girls and they twirled.
"You compelled your own private runway show?" Elena questioned.
"I need a Homecoming dress. So, what do you think? Pick one," Rebekah stated.
"I'm not here to help you shop. I'm here to talk about why you don't want me to wake up Mikael," Elena explained.
Rebekah vamp sped to one of the girls and was about to bite into her neck,"I said 'pick one', Elena."
Elena became scared,"The... red one."
"There. Wasn't so hard, was it?" Rebekah said to Elena before ordering the girls. "Go away. Remember nothing."
The girls left the room and Rebekah walked up to Elena,"You do not threaten me. You'll learn what I allow you to learn. Is that clear?"
Elena nodded her head and Rebekah walked away from Elena. Elena and Eira followed her. Rebekah wanted to snoop through Stefan's room.
Eira and Rebekah went right into the room. Eira sat in a chair that was in the room. Rebekah snooped through his drawers and Elena stood at the door.
"We shouldn't be here," Elena said not wanting to invade Stefan's privacy.
"'Course we should! Come on, like you've never wanted to snoop," Rebekah said and then she held up boxer briefs before putting them back. "Boxer briefs. A lot has changed since the twenties."
"Are you gonna root through his stuff all night or are you gonna start to tell me your story?" Elena questioned.
"Ah...you really are no fun. What do you want to know?" Rebekah stated.
Eira listened to Elena and Rebekah talk about how Rebekah's family became Originals. Elena was impatient as Rebekah told the story. They moved throughout the house as they talked. Eira found some parts interesting but Klaus had already told her what she needed to know so her curiosity wasn't as peaked as before.
Eira was shocked that Rebekah didn't know that Klaus killed their mother. Rebekah thought Mikael did. She didn't know how to tell Rebekah and wasn't even sure if she should. But she didn't have to decide at all because Elena took matters into her own hands.
Elena walked back into the house after awhile of being gone and Rebekah spoke,"I thought I told you to leave. Twice."
"How do you know that Mikael killed your mother?" Elena questioned.
"Nik was there. He told me," Rebekah replied.
"He lied to you," Elena revealed.
"And how do you know that?" Rebekah questioned.
"The cave where you carved your family's names is covered in symbols," Elena laid down the photos of the symbols and pointed them out. "The story of your family: how your parents arrived, how they made peace, the spell that turned them into vampires, and this. This is the symbol for hybrid. It's a combination of the werewolf and the vampire symbol. And this is the one for your mother."
"The necklace," Rebekah stated.
"And this is the story of her death. The hybrid killed the Original Witch. Not Mikael. Klaus," Elena revealed another photo.
"No! No, he wouldn't," Rebekah shook her head in disbelief and Eira's heart went out to her.
"She put the curse on him, made it so that he would be the only one of his kind, and then she rejected him. With the werewolf gene comes aggression and violence...when he turned, all of that was heightened. He killed her, Rebekah. And then he made up this entire lie about your father, so that he wouldn't lose you," Elena explained.
Rebekah became angry and threw the photos in the fireplace to burn,"These mean nothing! They're just stupid drawings, done by stupid people who had no idea who my family was!"
"Then why are you so upset?" Elena questioned.
"Why are you doing this to me? I've done nothing to you!" Rebekah shouted.
"Klaus killed your mother. He has a hold on you, on me, on everyone. He has for a thousand years. We have to make it stop!" Elena demanded.
Rebekah's vampire face came out as she reeled from her emotions and she grabbed Elena by the throat, "Shut up! Shut up! Don't talk anymore! Nothing!"
Rebekah calmed down slightly and her vampire face went away. She let go of Elena and backed away. Rebekah gasped as she realized she was lied to.
Rebekah fell to her knees and she started to sob. Elena looked at her sadly and guiltily. Eira knelt down next to Rebekah and put her arms around her in a comforting gesture and Rebekah sobbed into her shoulder.
Eira looked at Elena,"Go away, Elena."
Elena nodded and left. Eira just kept holding Rebekah as she sobbed. Eira's heart broke for Rebekah as she thought of Rebekah as her friend.

It was late in the night and Rebekah's tears had dried up and she went to bed. Eira walked into her room and her phone rang.
She walked over to it and answered the phone,"I'm tired, Klaus."
"What's wrong?" Klaus picked up on the sad tone of her voice.
"Why were you honest with me?" Eira asked. "About the story of your family?"
"I feel like I can tell you anything," Klaus revealed.
Eira smiled through teary eyes,"I'll talk to you tomorrow, Klaus."
Author's Note: Okay, I kind of just blew through this episode. I just want to get to the next one when Klaus comes back.
Their ship name is officially Klaira!
