Hi guys! Sorry for the long update so I'll just get right on with it!
I looked at myself in full view in the mirror. I had decided to just look casual for the party since I was not going to be there long. Damon had filled me in on the plan before I left. I was to lure Matt to the front of the house where he and Stefan would jump him and….. Well you know. Personally I had no idea how I was supposed to do that but just in case anything went wrong they had given me a stake to put in my satchel which I picked up and went downstairs with.
"Finn's already left." My dad said.
"It's fine. Even when there isn't a party Finn is always ready before me." I reply and head for the door but he walks in front of me blocking my path. "Hold on kiddo, we need to talk."
I wince before sitting next to Carol who looked at me with concern. He sat down in front of me with a mood on his face that could only be described as worry.
"I got a call from Blaine earlier." I gasped clutching the table. I knew what was coming. Carol placed her hand on my shoulder.
"Sweetie what did that boy do to you?" she asked me.
"Nothing!" I said as I stood up and walked to the living room sofa.
"That's not what he said when he called me crying his eyes out about what happened between you and that Matt kid. He said for me to tell you that he is going to go to the party anyway and hopes you will come so he can sort it out between you two."
I shot my head to him. He was going to do what? If he confronted Matt about the issue then what would Matt do? I could feel my body temperature begin to rise with my panic and I headed for the door but again dad blocked my path.
"Oh no! you are not going anywhere until you tell us what happened. It this Matt the kid that you were with that night? Is he the one that kidnapped you? For god sakes Kurt tell us!"
I was up against an emotional wall. "Dad nothing happened now for god sakes will you just be quiet and let me leave!"
"Your father is only trying to help you Kurt! There is no need to yell at him like that!" Carol exclaimed.
"You bet the hell there isn't! You are not setting one foot out that door until you talk."
It was too late. My emotions had gotten the better of me and before I could even notice my face vamping out I exploded.
"I SAID BE QUIET!"
My parents stood there in shock. Carol was moving backwards slowly in complete shock and my dad starting making his way towards me.
"What the hell is wrong with your face?"
I tried to back away but he clasped his bear hands around my face taking a closer look. I panicked trying to move away from him.
"Dad plea.." that was the last thing I should have done because I had given him a full view of my teeth.
"HOLY SHIT!" he jumped backwards landing on the floor and I staggered back into the doorway, I could hear Carol screaming but all that I noticed was the door and without hesitation I opened it and ran out into the night.
The run over to the house wasn't enough time to calm myself down. He knew, he knew what I was. My own father was afraid of me and I couldn't blame him. I was a monster that should have died but was brought back to live a life of sin and misery. What was I going to do, I couldn't go back there after what happened. I wiped away my tears as I faced the house. It was grim and dark just like its owner. The entire house was bordered up apart from the open door with a painted sign above it.
Welcome New Directions
Cute. I thought to myself with disgust. I could see everyone's cars parked out the front including Blaine's. My thoughts drifted to him. I had to keep him safe, safe from him. I looked further down the street and just like they said it would be was Stefan and Damon's SUV with them in the front seats waiting and ready to move when the time came. I walked up to the door to be caught with an odd stench. I looked up at the sign more closely and the sight I saw made me vomit. The letters were painted with blood, the blood of his victims. He was trying to throw off my nerves before I even got into the house. I shook it off, I wasn't going to let him get to me and walked through the door.
Since no one living lived here I was able to get inside without an invitation. I entered the living room and was greeted to loud music and my friends' dancing there cares away. Mercedes was dancing with Sam and Mike was next to Tina at the DJ booth. Finn, Rachel and Quinn were all dancing together which I thought was going to be a disaster from the beginning. Lauren and Puck were dancing way to close together for it to be appropriate. And then I saw Matt. Santana and Brittney were talking to him and the way they were holding themselves I knew there was some flirting going on. I was about to march over there and get them away from him as fast as I could when I felt someone staring at me from behind.
"I didn't think you would come."
I looked at Blaine and if I wasn't emotionally depressed already this would have thrown me off the edge. He was dressed in tracksuit bottoms and a scruffy plain white shirt. His hair was a total wreck with no gel and instead of becoming those cute curls I loved it was scraggy and unorganised. On any other day I would have clipped him over the head for dressing so badly but tonight all I could feel for him was sympathy.
"I didn't want to miss the party." I said trying to act normal but he wasn't buying any of it.
"Bullshit Kurt. After this afternoon I'm actually shocked that you would be here. After what this guy did to you, you're actually being civil with him. You should be having the police on him!" he glared at me in confusion. My mind went back to the conversation with my dad and I got a little annoyed.
"What do you mean what he did to me? He didn't do anything Blaine!"
"You said that he did something to you this afternoon! Don't try lying to me again Kurt because it wont work!"
Then it was my turn to get pissed off.
"Oh yes! This afternoon which you told my dad about over the phone who I've just had a huge row with. Yes Blaine lets talk about that and how you lied when you saw Damon at the hospital!"
"My lie hasn't caused all this shit though has it!"
We were both getting angry and I swear that if I hadn't calmed myself down sooner I would have had a repeat of what happened an hour prior. Blaine grunted.
"Your dad deserved to know what happened Kurt. After everything that happened to you I couldn't lie to him again and if you can't even understand that then…" he stopped like he was trying to find the words.
"What Blaine! Then what?"
Blaine's body slacked. "Forget it" and he walked out of the living room around into some corridor. I took a quick glance to see everyone staring at me and I stormed off.
When I entered the hallway I had previously walked through I hit the closest thing (that being the coat cupboard) with my fist and smashed a great wide hole in the centre of it. I pulled my fist out and the cuts had already healed. Leaning against the wall I sobbed as I slid down to the floor bringing my knees to my face. Why was this happening to me? After everything that I went through why did this have to happen to me? I knew I was feeling sorry for myself but I felt that in that scenario I deserved to. I felt my phone go off and I pulled it out to read the caller id.
Blaine
What the fuck? What was he doing? We had just had a raging argument in front of everyone and now he was ringing my phone when he was only in the next room. Pissed off I answered.
"For god sake Blaine what the hell are you…"
"Sorry Blaine's not here at the moment."
My body stiffened. All other noise was blocked out by my loud breathing.
"I'm afraid he went out the backdoor in tears after your little row and me being the kind and loving person I am decided to put him out of his misery."
I dropped the phone to the floor and ran. Passing the party in a blur I came to a small garden. It had a small pond with a swing set that was sheltered by a few trees. There was a rustle from the bushes covering them and Matt appeared in the shade of the tree.
"Where is he?"
He snorted at me as he walked up to the swings resting his arm on the metal.
"God you are so easily manipulated. Don't worry Blaine's quietly resting off a pounding headache in the toilet." I glared at him.
"So what do you plan to do?" I asked
"Why Kurt! I would have thought you'd have figured it out by now!"
With that he ran at me at high speed and shoved something sharp into my stomach. I screamed in pain as I fell to the floor. I looked down to see a wooden stake lodged firmly in my stomach. I reached for it and in one swift movement pulled it out and dropped it on the grass. He walked up to me and kicked me in the chest.
"Look at you Kurt, your weak! This is why I thought you would be the perfect distraction." I looked up at him. His face had changed and was licking his fangs with his tongue.
"What do you mean distraction?" he sighed and bent down on his knees.
"Okay I'll spill. Let's go back a year or two to your friends Stefan and Damon. They had killed a vampire who Caleb, the guy who turned me was working for. He was very angry at this and has been planning on killing them ever since."
So that was why this guy who I then knew as Caleb was after them. But what I kept thinking was where I came into this and he continued.
"But he wasn't stupid. He knew that he would be no match against them alone so he found me while I was walking home from glee one week. He knew that they would be moving to Ohio soon so he thought it was best to have someone who knew the area well on his side. Unfortunately even with me he still wouldn't be prepared to fight them at full strength and that's when the idea came to me Kurtsie."
I blanked.
"If they were distracted by something like say another vampire causing chaos then killing them would have been a piece of cake. I needed someone emotional. Someone who would not be able to control his self and become a major pain in the neck for them and at that moment in time I thought you would have been the perfect option. But when I turn you who of all people finds you? Stefan! He takes you in and teaches you the ropes and completely ruins our plans and now we have three vampires to deal with!"
I rested my head against the blades of grass. That was why he turned me, just to be a distraction. My body grew warm with anger and sadness. He was hovering over me with another stake in his hand.
"Well, two vampires really and now it's time I ended this mistake." He raised his steak. I glared at him with my eyes putting all my emotion in to them. "Well that was where you made your mistake Matt." He looked at me in confusion and with all of my energy I reached out and grabbed the stake next to me and in one thrust pierced his heart with it. His eyes went wide with shock and a cold gasp was released from his mouth as his face phased back.
"I am stronger than I look."
In that moment I shoved it further in to his heart. Matt's body started to turn pale and veins were starting to appear all over his body. His face became expressionless and his body stilled. It was over, for now.
It didn't take long for Damon and Stefan to sort everything out. Everyone was compelled to go home and think that Matt had to leave early. I made sure that Blaine wasn't too badly injured before Stefan took him back to his house. After that came the hard part.
I was in my room with Elena while downstairs Stefan was talking to my very hysterical parents. I could hear my dad's cries as Stefan told him what had happened to me. Eager not to listen I tried to focus on Elena who was going through my wardrobe.
"Wow! Your wardrobe looks like it was featured in a vogue magazine!" I smiled at her compliment.
"Thanks. My motto is be fabulous or be a fraud because when you don't look your best your not showing the real you." She let out a small giggle and sat next to me on my bed.
"You should meet my friend Caroline. I have a feeling you two would be best friends!" I let out a small laugh. Elena had been so nice to me since we met and I was starting to become really close with her. I remembered when we would sit and chat around the house about our favourite films and books and watch Project runway. I thought that she wouldn't mind if I asked her this.
"What's going to happen between you and Stefan?"
There was a short silence. Elena turned to me. "What do you mean?"
I was at a stutter for words. "You know the whole mortal dating immortal scenario."
She took in a sharp breath and put her hands on my knee.
"We have talked about it. A while ago I was in a situation where becoming a vampire seemed inevitable and it made me think about my future. Kids, marriage and I realised then that I didn't want to be a vampire but then thinking about it again I realised that Stefan is the only one for me and I couldn't have that if I was with him so I decided that if I wanted to be with him I would have to be with him forever. We have decided that in a year's time on my birthday when I turn twenty that he will turn me."
I looked at her mouth gaped. I didn't truly realise how close they were to another. That only left two more questions.
"So you becoming a vampire is the only way your relationship will survive?"
She moved her hand to my shoulder taking in my tone of voice and expression.
"You're not talking about me and Stefan are you?"
I gave in to her.
"I just don't know what to do! Becoming a vampire has done nothing but make us argue and I am constantly hiding the truth from him. I don't even know if I could tell him, he might run away from me or call me a freak! Would he even want to be like me?"
"Kurt from what I can get from this Blaine guy I don't think he would ever say that you're a freak. He'd be quite stunned yes I mean I remember when I found out. I was petrified of him but it never stopped me loving him and in time I learned to accept it."
She wiped away the tears falling down my face with her hand.
"And maybe one day you will be surprised to find out that Blaine would love you alive or dead."
Before I could answer Stefan entered the room with my dad and Carol behind him. Elena got off the bed and headed over to Stefan's side. I couldn't even look at them. I was probably a monster to them. Dad was probably so ashamed of me that he couldn't even stand the sight of me. After all that has happened to him because of me I wouldn't blame him but instead I felt a pair of arms wrap around me and hold me.
"I am so sorry this happened Kurt. I am a terrible father. I'm supposed to protect you from stuff like this and I have failed every time."
"It's not your fault! Please don't think that dad I love you! You helped me through everything and I don't know what I'd do without you!" I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tight.
"I love you too son. Forever and always."
We stayed like that for a long time.
It was after Stefan and Elena had gone home. Dad and Carol were sound asleep while Finn had come home from the party a few hours after and was snoring his head off in his room. I was wide awake sat on my bed thinking about what would happen next. I hadn't heard the last of that vampire. He would know by now that Matt was dead and would be plotting against us right now.
Deciding to calm down I started clearing my desk for something to do when a white fabric fell down the side of it. I picked it up to find that it was a plain white t shirt. Shit! I had totally forgotten about the glee assignment! I sat back down on my bed, we were supposed to think of a word and a song to describe a secret that no one else knew, one that we kept hidden and print it onto the shirts.
It was then that the revelation hit me. It was crazy and selfish and down right dangerous but I knew that I couldn't go on like this. I grabbed my I pod and started finding the song that was going to change everything.
Next chapter: Kurt makes a life changing decision but how will this effect everyone else around him and little did he know that his secret was about to make a shocking entrance.
I am soooo sorry for the late update but you will have to get used to it since I am finding time to write this fic scarce.
