Skipping A Beat
Basically aspects of the Vampire Diaries mixed with Glee. You do not have to know the Vampire Diaries to understand this. It's basically just taking very few plot points from the show mixed with the supernatural aspects of it using Glee characters. This is a repost from 3 years ago, from an account I don't remember the email or password to. Figured I'd give a revival a shot. This is a quinntana story.
Chapter 1: Another Year
Quinn
Another year, another chance to prove my worth. Those were the words Quinn Fabray should have thought as she looked in the mirror, mere minutes away from leaving her grand house, headed straight toward her final year at William McKinley High School. As she stared at her reflection, she absorbed her appearance. High pony, hazel and unreadable eyes, perfectly glossed lips set in a scowl, and her red and white social status indicator Cheerios uniform. She should have felt happy, excited, even nervous for her last first day, but she didn't. She didn't feel anything but emptiness. The same emptiness that filled her since the night, not 5 months ago, that her parents died.
Quinn shook herself away from the dark road that her mind was attempting to take her to. It often succeeded, the masochist inside her couldn't stop from analyzing every last detail to oblivion.
8 hours, get through the next 8 hours, then you can succumb to it, she compromised.
On her way downstairs she poked her head into her younger sister's room, sighing with relief to see her awake and ready. Effy glanced at her, giving her the empty gaze that mirrored her own. It broke Quinn's heart just a little bit more with the knowledge that as bad off as she was, her sister was worse.
"Ready?" Quinn inquired gently.
She didn't receive an answer back. Not a nod, not a shake, not a word, but then she was used to not hearing a word. Effy had been silent since the day they got the horrific news. Quinn quickly learned that she was not going to get an answer anytime in the near future, so she turned on her heel and made the trek downstairs and into the kitchen.
Though she couldn't hear her, she knew Effy had followed. She grabbed each of them an apple-a deep, rich red for herself, and a soft green for her sister. Snatching the keys from the counter, they drove to their first day of the school year. The first time their mother hadn't been there to make them her very special "Big Day Breakfast".
Isabella
Another year, another generation, another personality, Isabella Lopez thought as she drove along the familiar road. The winding path took her home, or at least to the place she had lived before she died. Her keen eyesight allowed her to take in her surroundings, and she took note of how each recognizable tree had changed, and wow had they grown. But it had been 50 years, after all.
Isabella knew it wasn't a good idea to come back, not with all the history that had been experienced within the forsaken town's boundaries. It brought a heartache to her chest that she recognized all too well. It was where her family and her lover died. But the worst part of Lima, Ohio, was the memories of when her and her twin had died, too, the difference being that they woke up as something else.
With an exasperated sigh, she took a left onto a barely visible drive, and parked outside of a house that she had tried desperately to forget about for the past half century. She climbed out of the car, up the stairs to her magnificent abode, and into the house, hearing nothing but an aged creak as she stepped inside.
It was then, that Isabella finally continued where she left off all those years ago.
Santana
Another year, another party, Santana Lopez thought as she brushed back the hair of some scantily clad girl grinding against her. She smiled, taking in the wondrous scent and tuning in only the steady pulse of the neck of her latest. The black lights made it all so fun, what's a feed without a little flavor anyways? She flashed her teeth, knowing that they would shine oh so bright in the underground club she currently attended, but didn't mind because the bodies were all too close for anybody to get a glimpse of what she was doing. Not that she particularly cared.
Santana lowered her mouth, licking up the young girl's pulse point knowing that all girls love a little foreplay. Finally, she took a gentle nibble, just barely letting her teeth sink into the delicate flesh she craved. She was done in seconds, pulling away when she felt she had had enough. She carefully licked over the two puncture wounds she had created, watching them heal over so perfectly.
She forced the girls head up, so they were looking eye to eye.
"I want you to forget all about me, and go home. Now." She demanded, careful to keep her voice low, but loud enough so the girl could hear.
She nodded and immediately started toward the nearest exit.
Taking one last look around the mass of adrenaline filled bodies, Santana took her leave. Her time in New York was over, and she was ready to make her way down to Florida. She sighed deeply, knowing she would have to make a single stop before she could enter the sunshine state.
Quinn's younger sister Effy is in the image of Effy Stonem from Skins UK. Isabella looks exactly like Shay Mitchell, because her and Naya Rivera look very much alike, without it being exact.
