Hello patient readers whom I love and am ever so grateful for :-). Man... I haven't updated since last year! (Corny joke.. ha ha...) But seriously, this chapter took me longer than I thought, even though its a bit of a shorter chapter. Anyways, it's up now, so enjoy! There is some smut at the end, but for those who don't want to read, I'll post warnings! Enjoy!

PS - I hope everyone had a good holiday, and Happy New Year!

PPS - omg so I totally messed up (again) and I used the same character twice... as one of the reviewers pointed out - I used Sam in chapter one as the person they went to for documents blah blah blah, so to avoid confusion, I changed the name of character in chapter one. Thank you for pointing that out, and if I screw anything else up please let me know! :-)\

... PPPS? For people wondering, I haven't added a new chapter, rather just added more to this chapter, because there was a specific spot I wanted to leave this at... So here, read on!

Chapter 14

Kurt looked around the house for what may have been the last time. He picked up the suitcases that he had placed at his feet and stepped outside, locking the door on the way out. He saw Blaine sitting on the lawn, staring intently at his hands. Confused, he walked over.

"Blaine?" Kurt asked. Blaine looked up, startled. He stood and dusted off his pants.

"What were you doing?" Kurt asked, confused. Blaine shrugged.

"Just trying to do the whole fire thing… So did you get everything?" Blaine finished. Kurt nodded and gestured to the suitcases.

"Are we driving?" Blaine asked, raising an eyebrow. Kurt looked over his shoulder at his car which stood gleaming in the driveway.

"Nah, I have a cabin that's just like a ten minute run from here. Come then, grab a bag," Kurt said, holding one out for Blaine. Blaine smiled and reached out and grabbed it. Blaine gestured for Kurt to lead, and together they ran towards the trees, hardly a blur.

Mercedes turned down the street and stopped just outside the house. Sam slowed beside her and offered her his arm. Mercedes smiled and took it and together they walked inside. Mercedes pushed open the front door and sighed. Even though not much had physically changed, the place just felt so much emptier. Sam set down his bags with a clunk.

"Where can I put these?" he asked. Mercedes gestured towards her room, and Sam nodded and disappeared through the door. Mercedes couldn't help it; she went over to Kurt's room and pushed in the door. The first thing she noticed was the emptiness of the room. The second thing she noticed was the huge scorch mark adorned on the wall beside the bed. Her mouth fell open and she walked over. She raised her hand and let her fingers trail over the charred wall. She saw a note taped to the dresser below it.

Turns out Blaine's a pyro. And apparently I'm a hydro now, because of that whole mate-balancing thing? Anyways. Gonna miss you, sorry about the wall!

Kurt xoxo

Mercedes tucked the note into her jeans pocket and surveyed the room. All of Kurt's personal possessions were gone except for a photo that was peeking out from under the bed. Mercedes bent and picked it up, then examined it. It was a picture of Kurt and Blaine grinning. Blaine had his arm thrown around Kurt's shoulders, and Mercedes couldn't help but smile. Kurt rarely smiled with any teeth, but in the picture all of his pearly whites were on display. Mercedes took the photo and went back out into the living room.

True to his word, Kurt and Blaine arrived at the modest cabin in ten minutes. They walked inside and flipped on the lights. Kurt started upstairs and motioned for Blaine to follow him. As they walked down the hallway and pushed open a door, Blaine turned to Kurt.

"Once we unpack… can we maybe work on trying to control our abilities?" Blaine asked hesitantly. Kurt smiled and ruffled Blaine's hair, to his chagrin.

"Of course, I want to try out my water thing," Kurt replied as he brought his bag over to the closet.

Once they had unpacked, and Blaine had changed (as he was still wearing the sweatpants he went to bed and got changed in), the two headed outside. The air was crisp and the temperature cool.

"This is so cool, I should be freezing right now," Blaine said excitedly, pointing at his capris and short sleeved shirt. Kurt laughed and looked around.

"We should go by the dock, that way, if you light me on fire, I can just jump in?" Kurt said, smirking. Blaine rolled his eyes and mumbled something like 'way to be optimistic.' Kurt, with his heightened senses easily heard and smiled, reaching out with his hand to grasp Blaine's own and led him down to the dock.

Kurt sat cross-legged on the dock, facing Blaine. Blaine had his palms outstretched and resting on his thighs.

"Okay, so, focus. Think that you're in a really hot place, it's boiling hot. Visualize a fire, a huge fire. Got it? Now, reach into the fire, and grab it and pull it out," Kurt murmured, watching Blaine's scrunched up face. His eyes opened and he looked down at his hands and let out a shriek. Blaine's concentration wavered, and the small fireballs that had been floating in Blaine's hand vanished. Blaine frowned.

"The fact that you were able to even create them at all is good Blaine," Kurt said. Blaine shrugged.

"You try now," Blaine said. Kurt nodded. He closed his eyes and thought of himself underwater. His visualized-self broke the surface and reached forward. A huge wave crashed against his hand, and he brought his other hand up to trap the wave between his hands. Kurt opened his eyes and frowned when he saw that nothing was happening with his hands. Blaine looked shocked though, so Kurt followed his gaze to the lake behind him and let out a gasp. A small whirlpool with rough pounding waves was ripping through the water towards the dock, coming faster and faster. Kurt scooted back but the wave crashed over the small dock, soaking Kurt and Blaine. As the water receded back into the ocean, Blaine shook his head, water droplets spraying from his curls.

"Maybe you shouldn't be right beside the element you're trying to control…" Blaine said slowly. Kurt looked over at him, and Blaine couldn't help it. Kurt just looked absolutely soaked, his hair darkened and plastered against his forehead and his clothes sticking to him. His lips were set in a pout. Blaine burst out laughing, and Kurt reluctantly grinned. Blaine smiled and reached forward, bringing Kurt forward and connecting their lips in a wet kiss. He drew back but rested his forehead against Kurt's.

"Yeah, I guess," Kurt said exasperatedly. Blaine grinned and stood before offering Kurt a hand up. Kurt took it and stood.

"Want to take a break?" Kurt asked. Blaine nodded.

"I kind of want to hunt again," Blaine said, biting his lip.

"Do you want to try humans this time or stick with animals?" Kurt asked. A thoughtful expression came over Blaine's face before he met Kurt's gaze.

"I want to try humans."

The sky was dark as Blaine and Kurt stood on a rooftop above an alley. Kurt had been here with Mercedes many times before, so it was nothing new to him. Blaine looked over at Kurt.

"So, what do we do now?" Blaine asked.

"We wait," Kurt murmured as he lay down with his head peeking over the edge of the roof. Blaine followed suit, staring down into the path below.

They hadn't been waiting long when a young man walked into the alley, stopping and leaning against the wall directly underneath Blaine. Blaine's breathing stuttered as he took a deep breath, the human scent filling his nostrils and clouding his mind. The man below pulled out a phone and checked it before scanning both entrances of the alley. Then it hit Kurt; the man was waiting for someone. Kurt turned to warn Blaine and to tell him not to move but it was too late. The scent of the blood had already affected him, and he was already in a predatory crouch on the edge of the rooftop. His control was not as good, as he had just been turned earlier that day, and so his mind surrendered control to his instincts easier.

"Shit," Kurt muttered, as Blaine let out a low growl. He sprung forward and landed several stories down, right in front of the man. The man let out a frightened yelp and Blaine let out a feral snarl. He flung his hand out and in turn, a large fireball exploded right beside the man's face. The man dropped to the ground screaming as Blaine moved in. Kurt watched his mate with horror before a gasp had his head snapping to the entrance of the alleyway. Another man, seemingly younger, dressed in the same fashion as the other, stood about twenty feet away from Blaine and his meal. He stood there in shock, his mind trying to process what he had just witnessed.

Shit, he saw. I can't let him get away, shit, shit shit! Kurt thought frustrated. He jumped from the roof, landing easily a few feet in front of the man.

"What the fuck!" he yelled, the then turned and began sprinting out of the alley. Kurt looked back at Blaine before turning back to the man who was almost at the exit of the alley. Kurt knew he couldn't let the man out of his sight, but he knew he couldn't fully pursue him in public. With a final glance at Blaine, he turned and sprinted after the man. He had made it out into the street beyond, and Kurt skidded to a stop at the edge of the sidewalk as he looked around. The street was thankfully empty. In one single move, he launched himself halfway across the street to the man and roughly grabbed him. In another bound, he had the man pressed against a building.

"P-please, just let me go," he whimpered. The boy seemed young. Kurt bit his lip as he took in the young teen's face but shook his head. His mind unfortunately stayed clear as Kurt surged forward, the teen's anguished yells filling the night until they were silenced abruptly.

Blaine straightened, confused. Where is he? Blaine thought as he scanned for Kurt. He stared down at the man with the burned face below him. He was surprised to realize that he felt no regret or sadness for killing him. Then, the wind changed, and Blaine sniffed the air. Kurt's scent wafted towards him, and Blaine followed it until he reached the street. He cocked his head when he saw Kurt bent over something against a wall across the street. He slowly crossed the empty street and stopped behind him.

"Kurt?" Blaine asked. Kurt spun around, his face strangely neutral.

"Oh, Blaine. Hi," Kurt said, his voice seeming distant.

"What are you doing all the way over here?" Blaine asked. Kurt looked down at the body below him.

"Oh, right. I was about to tell you but it was too late. Your guy was waiting for someone, and he showed up in time to catch your fire show, so I had to take him down."

"Shit! How could you tell?" Blaine said, his brow furrowed.

"Just his general body language. Over time you'll be more in tune with body language, it helps you hunt better I guess," Kurt finished with a chuckle. Kurt took in Blaine's bloody appearance.

"I think you need to get changed?" Kurt teased, his earlier mood gone. Blaine looked down at himself and groaned. Blood spattered his t-shirt and there was a particularly big stain on his capris.

"Does blood come out?" Blaine asked. Kurt laughed and reached for Blaine's hand.

"Yeah, don't worry. Let's go home," Kurt said as he walked with Blaine towards the cabin. Blaine smiled, he liked the sound of going home with Kurt. Their home.

*beginning of smut - don't worry, you aren't missing any big plot things if you don't read!*

Kurt stood in the bedroom facing Blaine.

"Okay, strip. Give me your clothes," Kurt instructed, and Blaine removed his shirt. He got a wicked grin and he slowly pulled down his pants, staring at Kurt as he did so. Kurt became flustered, and if it were possible, he would be blushing right down to the roots of his hair.

"B-blaine," Kurt stuttered. Blaine walked over slowly and removed the clothes from Kurt's hand, before leading him towards the bed. He gently pushed him down and settled over top of him. He placed one hand beside Kurt's head and the other caressed down his jawbone as Blaine leaned forward and placed a light kiss on the corner of his mouth. Kurt's breathing hitched when Blaine sat up, straddling Kurt's hips. Blaine reached forward and undid one of the buttons slowly, looking at Kurt while he did so. At Kurt's quick nod, he made quick work of the rest of the buttons and pushed the shirt open as he took in his mate's bare torso. A primal sound rumbled in Blaine's throat as he leaned down and licked a hot, wet trail from just above Kurt's nipple to his collarbone. Kurt let out a whimper, and Blaine leaned down again, and took his nipple into his mouth. He sucked and bit down on it lightly, as Kurt arched his back, needy for more. Blaine teased it some more, before kissing across to its twin and teasing it the same.

"Blaine," Kurt moaned, and Blaine lifted his head and kissed Kurt, his tongue swiping along Kurt's bottom lip until Kurt opened his lips and Blaine met Kurt's tongue with a wonton moan. Blaine's hands drifted down until they settled on Kurt's hip bones, before deftly un-doing his fly and tugging down Kurt's pants. Blaine moved his lips to just under Kurt's ear where he sucked a dark purplish bruise. Kurt keened and Blaine slipped his hand underneath the waistband of Kurt's briefs. Blaine lifted his hips and slipped off his own boxers, letting his fully hard member spring free. Seconds later, Kurt's briefs joined his on the floor, and Blaine slowly lowered himself down, his cock touching Kurt's own.

"Fuck," Kurt hissed, as their cock heads touched. Blaine reached down and took both of them in his hands and started circling and rubbing them. Kurt threw his head back and let soft sounds of pleasure pour out. Blaine removed his hand, and ground his hips down against Kurt.

"Blaine!" Kurt yelled as he eagerly thrust his hips up to meet Blaine's. Blaine's fingers curled at the friction as he roughly ground his hips again. Blaine met Kurt in sloppy kiss and sucked harshly at his bottom lip before moving his mouth to Kurt's long neck. Acting on instinct, Blaine's fangs lengthened and he darted forward, piercing Kurt's porcelain skin. Kurt let out a moan, and his fingers tangled in Blaine's hair to hold him to his own neck. Blaine sucked hard and his hips jerked when the first drop of Kurt's blood hit his tongue. It was like liquid fire, and Blaine eagerly gulped it down. Kurt's cock was absolutely aching, and continuous moans and whimpers fell through his parted lips.

Blaine raised his head and met Kurt's gaze and kissed his swollen lips. Kurt could taste his own blood in Blaine's mouth and he clutched his head closer as his fingers tightened in Blaine's curls. Kurt flipped Blaine over with inhuman strength before dipping his head to bite Blaine as well. Kurt sucked greedily; the taste of Blaine's blood appeared irresistible. Kurt drew back and licked over the bite marks and darted upwards to give Blaine a quick peck before sliding down Blaine's body until his mouth was hovering over Blaine's cock.

"Tell me what you want," Kurt demanded, looking up from under his lashes. Blaine nearly came right then.

"Suck me, please, Kurt, pl-" Blaine was cut off as Kurt did exactly that. Kurt parted his lips and took Blaine until the head of his cock hit the back of his throat.

"Fuck!" Blaine yelled as his hands reached down to tangle in Kurt's perfectly-styled hair. Kurt backed off and licked up the underside of his cock, the tip of his tongue tracing a prominent vein. Kurt sucked the head into his mouth, hollowing out his cheeks.

Blaine had one hand tangled in Kurt's hair, the other was roughly gripping the sheets beside him as he willed himself not to thrust into his mate's mouth. Suddenly, Kurt pulled up, and Blaine met Kurt's lust-filled gaze, confused. Kurt leaned forward and held out his hand.

"Suck," he ordered. Blaine took Kurt's index finger into his mouth, coating it in saliva. Kurt pulled it out, and in one motion he took Blaine's cock into his mouth all the way, and pushed his index finger inside Blaine. Blaine screamed, and tumbled over the edge as Kurt started humming. Everything went white.

*end of smut*

Blaine slowly opened his eyes to Kurt looming above him.

"I don't mean to brag but… I totally just made you come so hard you passed out," Kurt finished, smirking. Blaine groaned but wound his arms around Kurt's torso and pulled him flush against him.

"Your turn," he whispered huskily into Kurt's ear, but Kurt laughed.

"I already took care of that… you're so fucking hot when you come," Kurt explained, as he moved to give Blaine a quick kiss. Blaine grinned.

"Do you want to go practice our abilities?" Kurt asked. Blaine pursed his lips.

"Later, now we need to cuddle," Blaine said, as he adjusted their position until Blaine was spooning Kurt. Kurt smiled and turned his head back to Blaine.

"Look," he murmured as he held up his left wrist, which now had a sapphire mate-mark circling around it. Blaine reached and captured Kurt's wrist, and gave it a gentle kiss.

Kurt and Blaine enjoyed the next relatively calm few weeks. Aside from a few accidents which had left Kurt several items of clothing short and Blaine with some wet clothing, the pair of them had more or less mastered their elements. Blaine was able to create fire at will, and able to throw fireballs, as well as simply focus on a certain thing and light it on fire. Kurt was able to produce water balls that had been seemingly taken from the heart of the roughest seas, and he was also happy to find he could control water in its solid and gas form. Blaine had been settling into vampirism very well; he was already an adept hunter and his self-control was improving by the day.

They had gotten so used to being separated from civilization and having only each other's company, that they were shocked when that changed. That change came in the form of someone knocking at the door.

"I'll get it…" Kurt said softly with a slight tone of bewilderment. Who could it possibly be? Kurt thought. He walked to the door and hesitated before pulling open the door. As his mind registered the face that was staring before him, he was immediately assaulted with memories from Dalton.

"C-Cameron?" Kurt spluttered.

Eheh, cliffhanger... :-) How was that? Please review! I can't believe the response that this story has gotten. This one is about 3/4 of the way finished I'd guess, but once it's done I have several other ideas I'd like to start as well as continuing my Western!Warblers one and also one I have about a painting coming to life... Anyways. Hope you enjoyed, and I'll post the next chapter soon as I can!
