Dew was fresh on the grass as we walked out of the woods and into daylight. Most people were still in their houses, but a few cars were gone. Puck and Quinn stayed behind me as I guided them to Blaine's house. If I timed it right, he had already left for work and would be back at noon. We turned on his street and a few neighbors were outside tending their gardens or were watching their kids play. Since we looked normal on the outside, they greeted us with a good morning and a smile. A kid kicked the ball out of the yard and it hit Puck in his leg. I stopped walking and turn to watch him, praying he didn't lose control. He smiled at the kid before bending down and tossing the ball back. "Thank you mister!" The kid beamed before running back into his yard and playing with his dad. I smiled at Puck before turning back around to continue walking. A few houses down I noticed that Blaine's car was missing and I sighed a relief.
"His door is locked." I said, crossing my arms.
"Step aside." Puck walked to the door and took out some gadget out of his pocket and pressed it against the bolt lock. It beeped before there was a click and the door swung open.
"Is that how you escaped?" I asked, walking into the house. Blaine's scent hit me like a ton of bricks and memories flooded back into my mind.
"Maybe... Damn, he just left." Quinn breathed in and out with a sigh. "How long do we have to wait? I'm hungry."
"You might want to go feast on small animals. He won't be back until three."
"You're shitting me," she said with a roll of her eyes. "I can't keep living off animals. Humans last longer."
"He'll be back, okay? Just go get your bellies full until three."
"You gonna come?" Puck asked, stepping back out of the house. I shook my head no.
"Not hungry."
"I've never seen you feed on human before." Puck said.
"I have before, way before we got locked away."
"Whatever man. We'll be back at two." Puck grabbed Quinn by her arm and pulled her until they were both sprinting up the street and into the mountains. I closed the door behind them and locked it. I walked through the house and into the guest room. There were a few blood stains in the carpet from my shoulder. The bed was a mess, indicating the Blaine must have slept in here last night. His glasses were on the dresser and the note he left me was still there. I could feel his heart beat, which was strange because he wasn't near me. Just then the front door opened and I could hear it pounding. I could hear the flow of blood coursing through his body. His amazing scent of vanilla spread through the house and I smiled. I stepped out of the room and stood in the hallway. His shoes tapped on the wood floors as he got closer. His head was down, but once he turned the corner he looked up and saw me. He dropped his suitcase that was in his hands.
"Kurt.." He breathed. "Kurt, what are you doing here?" He wiped at his face and stepped closer.
"I came to warn you. What are you doing here so early?"
"They let us go until the Demon... Until you and your friends were captured...Warn me? Why?"
"My friends," I walked closer and past him, going to sit on the couch. "They want to kill you."
"Why?" He followed me and say right across from me.
"They are hungry." I sighed.
"And they want me?" He kept his voice calm.
"Yes, Blaine, you need to leave."
"I can't just leave! Kurt please explain what's going on."
"If you don't want to die in the most horrible way, then I advice you leave before they come back." I stood up. "I'll help you pack."
"I'm not fucking leaving. Kurt I just want you okay. I don't care if I die right now, as long as I got to see you before I die."
"Blaine, you aren't in love with me." I groaned.
"I am Kurt! I am." He fought back. I tensed and looked towards the front door. He looked at me, confused. "What's going on?"
"Blaine, you need to go now."
"What is it?"
"They are coming back now for some reason. Blaine go now." His heart rate was slow and normal. "Blaine! Go!"
"Kurt I told you. I'm not leaving." His voice cracked, but he kept a straight face. He wasn't even scared. He was brave. The front door burst open and Puck and Quinn came running down the hallway, blood staining their clothes.
"I knew he was back." Quinn said, licking her lips. Puck held her back and pointed to me.
"Okay. Time to stop acting friendly, you get the first blood."
"No Puck. You need to find someone else." I pulled Blaine behind me. Quinn busted out laughing, blood dripping from her mouth.
"Are you serious Kurt? I mean, yeah he's cute, but you have to be starving for blood." She was right. The last time I had human was before I got caught a few months ago. I bit my lip, feeling my blood rushing. Blaine rested his hand against my back and I had to pull away.
"Don't touch me Blaine. It will be bad if you do." He pulled his hands to himself. "You guys need to go."
"Oh don't tell me you are serious!" Quinn whined. "Kurt, you can't protect a human. Not now, not ever." She broke past Puck, but he grabbed her hand before she reached me. She screamed out and ravaged against him. I pushed Blaine back and into his room and stood in front of the door. He banged on the door but I squeezed on the handle and broke it off, trapping him inside.
"Kurt, what's going on. Really." Puck asked, pinning Quinn's arm behind her back. She calmed down, but her eyes still shone black.
"I... I can't let you kill him." I whispered. "I'm sorry but that's not happening."
"You can't protect him." Puck gave me a sad look.
"I know. I'll-"
"No!" Quinn screamed. "You aren't changing him!"
"I will." I bit my lip. Quinn ravaged in Pucks arms.
"Meet us in the mountains once the sun sets and bring the human." Puck dragged Quinn out of the living room. He slammed the door, cutting off her screams. I waited until I couldn't hear their pulses to open Blaine's door.
"That was better than I expected." I said once he crashed on the couch.
"Kurt, what's going to happen to me?"
"I don't know."
"Am I going to die?"
"No. I'm supposed to meet them at dusk. They want you to come."
"Why?"
"I don't know Blaine." I walked over to the couch, but fell to the ground. My head pounded, and I could barely see.
"Whats wrong?" Blaine asked, kneeling next to me. He laid his hands on my back and I threw my head back, screaming. "Kurt?"
"Blaine don't fucking touch me... Please." I fell on my side, pain shooting through my body. "I'm starving..."I groaned. Blaine jumped off the floor And ran into the kitchen. "That won't work. Human food does nothing to me." He grabbed a knife and slid next to me. He opened the palm of his hand and held the tip to his skin. I turned to watch him as he pressed it down but I kicked it out of his hand before it cut through. "Are you stupid... If you do that I wouldn't be able to help what I do."
"I'm sorry... I didn't know what to do!"
"I need to eat." I stood up off the floor and balanced my self from the wall. "I need to go feed."
"I'll come with you."
"No."
"Well what if that girl comes back and kills me?" He challenged.
"Fine, we don't have time." I walked slowly towards the door, keeping my hand on the wall.
"I'm driving you to the hunting grounds. It's deer season so the will be out." He grabbed his keys and ran outside to start the car. After a few seconds I made it to the car and he was standing behind his trunk.
"What are you doing?"
"You are too weak to kill an animal by yourself." He scrunched his face and I could tell he was weirded out by this. He held up a hunting bow in his hands. "I'm going to kill the first one for you." He closed the trunk and jogged around to open the door for me. I threw myself in the back seat, groaning and grabbing my head. He hopped in the drivers side and put the car in reverse, driving away from the mountains.
The drive was only ten minutes down the road on the outskirts of the city. Blaine helped out of the car and walked with me through the woods, his bow slung around his shoulders. He sat me by a tree. "Thanks." I whispered.
"Anything." He said and walked a few feet away from me before getting in position. A rabbit hopped into view, chewing on the grasses. I watched as Blaine grabbed an arrow from into slot on his back and pulled back, aiming at the rabbit. The animal perked it's ears up, but before it could react, the arrow shot through him, stuck right in its throat. Blaine see his bow down and ran to retrieve the rabbit. I say up straight as he came back and handed it to me. I brought it up slowly, drinking the blood that was coming out of its wound. I could feel myself regenerating, but I knew that it wouldn't get my full strength. Blaine kept his eyes on me, watching as I finished off the animal and threw it to the side. I sucked the blood off my fingers and his pulse quickened as he looked away. I smirked to myself and stood up.
"You aren't weirded out about this? You aren't scared of me?" I asked as he started to set up again.
"It's weird... But it's a beautiful thing. You are a beautiful thing, I'm not scared of you." He bit his cheek as he shot at a bird and hit it dead on. "If you want a deer, we are going to have to go deeper in the woods." He said, brining me back the bird. I quickly sucked the blood out of the small creature, my eyes turning black. I wiped my face, leaving a smear of blood on it. Blaine slung his bow over his shoulder and walked forward. I followed him, trying my best not to step on sticks. He held up his hand to stop me and bent down, looking through the bushes. "Six point." He whispered, pulling his arrow back. I watched him. He licked his lips and kept his gaze focused on the deer. He breathed in and out before letting the arrow go. It slices through the bushes and hit the deer right in its neck. The deer looked up and took a few steps forward before falling to the ground. I licked my own lips and hopped through the thickets and tore the arrow out of its neck. I brought it up to my lips as Blaine fought his way through.
"It's a sloppy mess," I told him, setting the deer down. "Thank you so much."
"Anything for you Kurt." He said and say on the ground. Like before, he watched me finished off the animal. I was covered in dirt and dried blood.
"You really like me.." I said, wiping my hands on my shirt.
"Kurt, I love you."
"You can't love me." I told him, flipping the deer upside down. I used the arrow head to tear open the it's stomach.
"Why not?" He questioned. I held the arrow in my hand and sighed.
"I'm a monster."
"You aren't to me." He whispered. I finally looked into his eyes. He meant what he was saying.
"Do you really think this okay? I kill animals to eat. I kill humans."
"Humans kill humans. Humans also kill animals." He replied. "It's your lifestyle, Kurt. I'm not judging you."
"You did before."
"I was just informing you of what I knew. But you guys, you aren't monsters."
"You told me to... Change you. Did you mean that?"
"Yes."
"Even after you have seen what I do?" I opened my arms to show him how bloody I was.
"Yes, Kurt." I stayed quiet and pulled my legs up to my chin. "Are you going to change me?"
"I don't know... I can't keep you safe forever. More of use will start escaping and they won't care about who you are to me."
"Who am I to you?"
"I don't know..." I whispered, looking away from in. He stayed quiet too. He was easily giving up his life, whereas I would have fought for mine.
"How did you... Become one?"
"My dad was born that way, there was a group of them a long time ago living in Canada. He met my mom and they had me... But it was a complicated birth. She was dying and the only thing he could do was try to change her, but it was too late. She died as soon as I was born. Then I was raised with a group of other kids, around fifty of us, who had parents who were Demon-Born. It wasn't until one of the leaders got out of hand and killed too many humans and the Feds got to killing. It was around my fifteenth birthday when it happened. The parents changed their kids before they all died. We had to live on our own, until we were eighteen then a few dispersed into America, like I did and Puck and Quinn, and a few others. We lived secretly until five of us went rouge and went out feeding and killed off half a town. They caught us and locked us up back up North. I used to live here in Ohio, until I was captured. But I escaped and came here. I'm not sure how Puck and Quinn found me or what's going to happen to the others. But... Yeah."
"How would you change me?"
"If it's family, you bite them... But if you are changing a lover... It's pretty messy."
"Lover," Blaine said with a smile. "I'm your lover."
"You are. We've bumped and grinded, so." I said, chuckling.
"Well, I guess I'll know how it happens when you change me." Blaine stood up and held his hand out for me to grab. He pulled me up and we walked back to the car, and he drove back to his house.
