Chapter 7
The vows of a vampire are forever and true. A vampire does not vow anything unless they mean it. When a vampire vows something, they are responsible for making sure that they do what they promise. Any vampire that does not keep their vow will be talked about from their clan and could be disowned from the vampire community...

~*Ten Days Later*~
Kurt walked nervously down the hall that lead to the kitchen, wondering what that wonderful smell was. He had awoken to the wonderful aroma of bacon, syrup, and the smell of freshly brewed coffee.
He rounded the corner and stepped into the kitchen, his glasz eyes widening at the sight.
Carole was at the stove finishing what looked to be breakfast. Nick and Jeff were beside her as they both sliced fresh pieces of fruit. Burt was pouring coffee into a couple of coffee cups, and Finn and Rachel were setting the kitchen table.
When they noticed Kurt enter the room, they all yelled "Happy Birthday!" excitedly, descending on him to envelop him in a multitude of hugs.
"Guys! What's going on?" he asked.
Nick smiled. "It's your birthday breakfast, silly head," he said with a laugh. "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and we have to make sure you have plenty to eat."
Jeff nodded. "Blaine said if we don't make sure that you eat plenty today, he would strangle us, so you must enjoy your breakfast. Once you are done eating and are presentable to the world, you are going out with Nick and I."
"Where are we going?"
Jeff smiled as he pulled out a gold credit card. "I have here in my hands Blaine's Visa credit card, which is loaded with money and has no limit. He said, and I quote, 'For his birthday, take Kurt on a shopping spree. Buy him whatever he wants, including what he looks at with want but puts back down, because I know he will do that. You and Nick are also free to buy what you want. Have fun, and tell Kurt I love him and I will see him later on tonight.' So, we are all going out once we are done. You are going to have the time of your life with Nick and I."
Kurt laughed, rolling his eyes. "Well, what more could a birthday boy want?"
Kurt, Nick, and Jeff walked around the clothing store, looking over the racks open racks of clothing. Kurt couldn't remember the last time he had gone out and spent time in one of these store and looked out at all the outfit possibilities that were spread upon him.
"Kurt, can I ask you a question?" Nick asked as he came up behind Kurt, a black leather jacket in his hand. Kurt nodded, giving Nick his full attention. "Do you think Jeff would look nice in this jacket? I've always thought he would like really hot in one of these, but I've always been embarrassed to ask him what type of clothing he does like. Do you think it would suit him, or is it just me?"
Kurt took the jacket into his hands and studied it. "I think so. I think to him anything that comes from you would be special...and I have to admit it would look hot on him," Kurt replied, handing the jacket back to Nick. "Nick, how long have you two been together? I've never gotten the chance to ask..."
Nick smiled. "Almost three years. He's made my existence worth living. I can't imagine my life without him."
Kurt nodded. "That's how I feel about Blaine. Was it...easy?"
"Was what easy?"
"The turning?" Kurt asked, playing with the sleeve on a shirt on the display model in front of him.
Nick chuckled. "Kurt, are you nervous about tonight?" Kurt nodded shyly. "From that shy nod, I have to ask this first: are you nervous about the turning...or are you nervous about what comes after you become a vampire?"
Kurt blushed. "Am I that obvious?"
Nick shrugged. "Not really, and to answer your question the turning was actually very easy. I thought it would be horrible, but with Jeff at my side it was totally different than what I was expecting. It's true what they say, your mates really do help with the transition. I barely felt a thing, and what I did feel was very quick and unnoticeable. Most of the time I just felt really numb. And, as for the part that came after I became a vampire, it was...well...um...amazing. I was afraid, I had never done anything like that before in my whole life, but Jeff was so wonderful. When you're a vampire, everything is heightened as far as your senses are concerned. I do need to warn you that it's going to be intense, you might not be able to think straight."
"Um, wow Nick. Was it really that good?"
"The best, hell it still is," Nick replied. "Trust me, you'll see what I mean. It's going to be the most wonderful experience you've ever had, even if you are new to the stuff."
Kurt blushed even redder. "My GaGa, does something about me just scream virgin?"
Nick laughed, holding up his thumb and index finger close together. "Maybe just a wee little," Nick replied.
Kurt rolled his eyes, slapping him lightly on the arm. "I-I'm not innocent. Blaine and I...have tried a couple of things..."
Nick grinned. "Oh yeah, Jeff and I know." Kurt raised a brow. "You're very vocal when you're excited. Even more so than Thad, and he's...ugh."
"Oh my...kill me now!" Kurt groaned.
"No thanks, Blaine is doing that tonight," Jeff said as he rejoined him. Jeff saw the jacket in Nick's hand and asked, "Wow babe, that jacket's sweet. Were you getting it for yourself?"
Nick shook his head. "N-No, for you actually."
Jeff's eyes lit up. "Aw, thanks Nicky," he said excitedly, taking it from his mate and admiring it. "This is going to be perfect we we hit the town. This is the best gift ever!"
Kurt smiled at the two mates as they kissed briefly. He knew he and Blaine would be like that in the future. He knew he was going to be happy for all of eternity if Blaine had anything to do with it.
He had been nervous about tonight, but after everything these past couple of days had really gave him a different perspective.
He couldn't wait until he saw Blaine tonight...
Kurt walked down the path that led to the garden outside the Night Class dormitories. He had been given instructions to follow the path, that he saw was lit by what must be over a thousand candles, until he found Blaine. The moon was high in the sky, and lit the garden up beautifully. The roses were in full bloom and their petals were spread out, letting Kurt admire the way they were shaped and the smell they permitted.
He looked down at himself, making sure he looked good; everyday was a day for fashion, and he wanted to look really nice for Blaine. He was wearing one of the outfits that he had bought at the store earlier that day: a silk white shirt with a silver vest, white skinny jeans, and a pair of knee high black boots.
He rounded the corner of the building...and came to a complete stop. He saw Blaine standing under the golden gazebo that sat in the middle of the garden, a banner with the words, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY/REBIRTH LOVE" above his head. Blaine was wearing a tight black dress shirt with the sleeves pushed up to the forearm over dark blue designer jeans and a pair of black dress shoes. He winked as he saw Kurt spot him and held up a hand for him to stay where he was before Blaine pushed what seemed to be a button on a radio before he heard music start playing and Blaine turned to him and began to sing.
So far away
This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait?
Just one chance, just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know
You know, you know
That I love you, I have loved you all along
And I miss you, been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
One my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you I'd withstand
All of it to hold your hand
I'd give it all, I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know
You know, you know
That I love you, I have loved you all along
And I miss you, been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
So far away, been far away for far too long
So far away, been far away for far too long
But you know
You know, you know
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
I love you, I have loved you all along
And I forgive you for being away for far too long
So keep breathing 'cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it, hold on to me, never let me go
Keep breathing 'cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it, hold on to me, never let me go
Hold on to me, never let me go
Hold on to me, never let me go
Blaine stopped as he made it all the way until he was standing right in front of Kurt. Kurt raised a brow, because he knew Blaine was about to do something. And Kurt was right, because before he knew it the Pureblood was down on one knee and looked up at Kurt with nothing but love filled in his hazel eyes. "Kurt, when we were younger, I never really asked you properly for your hand in marriage, it was all just a part of the pact. Kurt, you make me the happiest...vampire existing in this entire world. I want to love you for all of eternity, and I am hoping you will do the same." Kurt nodded. "I promise to protect you until the day I perish. Kurt Elizabeth Hummel, would you do me the honor of becoming not only my mate but as my husband as well some day in the near future?"
Kurt couldn't help the tears that rolled down his face as he nodded his head. "Of course, you dummy. I'm letting you turn me into a vampire. Being your husband one day is just an added bonus," he joked.
Blaine chuckled as he stood back up, wrapping his arms around Kurt's waist, leaning up a bit to kiss him chastely. "Are you ready, my love?"
Kurt nodded, wrapping his arms around his neck. "I haven't been more ready in my whole entire life."
Blaine picked Kurt up and ran from the garden, heading to their room...
Blaine kicked the bedroom door closed before walking to the bed and laying Kurt on it before climbing in himself, the Pureblood pressing him body between Kurt's. "Kurt...I love you so much."
"I love you, too."
Blaine smiled, leaning up to remove his shirt, Kurt following; Kurt knew Blaine didn't want the clothes ruined. Blaine bent back down, looking at Kurt. "Are you sure you're ready?"
Kurt nodded. "Yes, Blaine. Take my blood."
"...I'll be gentle..." Blaine said nervously as he lengthened his fangs. Kurt moved his head so he could bare his neck for Blaine. Blaine smiled at the gesture as he kissed the soft skin on Kurt's neck before he sank his fangs into the Dhampir's flesh.
Kurt moaned at the feeling. It didn't hurt, he was expecting I to, but the only thing he felt was a tiny pinch before nothing but warmth spread from his neck all the way through his whole body. "B-Blaine..."
"Mm," he heard Blaine mumble as Kurt felt himself getting weaker. He was expecting this, Blaine and Nick had told him this was a good thing. He felt like he was falling asleep, his limbs getting number and number with every second, making it harder and harder for him to move. The arms that had wrapped around Blaine's neck when the Pureblood bit him dropped onto the bed beside him.
Through his peripheral vision, he could see Blaine release his hold on Kurt's neck and hover above him. He barely heard Blaine as he asked, "Are you okay Kurt?'
Kurt tried to nod, but couldn't. So he simply said, "...yes..." He hopped Blaine had heard him, because if he was honest he didn't know if he could speak again.
"I have to give you my blood now, love," Blaine said as he bit into his wrist and filled his mouth with some of the liquid. He gently opened Kurt's mouth and kissed him, letting the blood leave his mouth and enter Kurt's.
Kurt felt the liquid travel down his throat and into his body. At first he didn't feel anything...then everything went cold. He felt his body begin to freeze as he tried to look at Blaine, who seemed to get father and farther away. Kurt knew he was losing consciousness, and he tried to say something, but darkness engulfed him.
Before it took him, though, he could swear he heard Blaine's voice say, "I love you," that put him at ease as he let the darkness take him.
Blaine watched for any signs of Kurt waking up. It had been two hours, and he knew the boy would wake up soon. Long ago he had heard Kurt's heart stop bleeding, so he knew anytime the boy would wake up. He watched as Kurt's skin had gone paler and how his hair color had become a shade brighter, his features becoming more defined. He was breathtaking, which Blaine knew was going to happen, but he didn't know the transformation would change his appearance that much. He was so alluring, and he knew he was going to have a hard time with the competition trying to woo Kurt.
He heard a groan emit from the boy, and from his position at the window quickly made his way to Kurt's side, jumping onto the bed and hovering over Kurt, watching intently.
He watched as Kurt's eyes seemed to move behind his closed lids and how Kurt had seemed to breath once, sharply, then nothing. He watched Kurt's mouth open slightly, and Blaine could see the signs of a fang poking out from inside.
"Kurt?" he said.
Kurt's head seemed to turn in his direction, to the sound of his voice. "Kurt, baby, it's me. Open your eyes. Show me you eyes, baby."
Kurt groaned again before his eyes scrunched before peeling open slowly. Blaine's breath hitched as he looked into the eyes of his lover's. Kurt looked up at him, his eyes adjusting to his new sight. They looked straight into Blaine's hazel eyes...
...Blaine's hazel eyes stared into Kurt's red ones...
