"The Hummel Clan"
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright
(Kurt POV)
"More broken bones Kurt. I'm supposed to take the cast off in two days, couldn't you at least wait for those to heal?" asks Anthony Sloan,- our personal doctor who we moved to Ohio so he could be at hand when needed- as he reads my file.
"Tony, look up" I say and raise my hand so he could see the damage
"What the hell happened?" he demands and takes my hand to take a closer look.
"Some assholes were waiting for Kurt when the competition was over" answers Gabe angrily
"Any casualties?" he asks as he injects the anesthesia.
"Not from us but five from them" I say and relax when the pain begins to fade. "So what's the diagnosis" I ask when he begins to numb the cuts on my face
"Well so far, three stitches for your cheek, a little special glue for your lip, at least seven stitches for your head but thankfully you show no signs of a concussion" he says "Ready for the stitches?" he holds up the needle
"You're going to do them right? I don't want scars" I say and look from the needle to him.
"Of course I will, your dad didn't demand I take lessons with the best plastic surgeon for nothing; don't worry no one will know of the attack when the stitches come out, you'll be as good as new" he says and begins to stitch me up
"What about his hand?" asks Blaine softly, as if he was scared to startle Tony and make him mess up.
"From the looks of it there is no huge muscle damage, the knife went through rather smoothly so it didn't snap bones and the tissue and muscle it hit will heal itself with time. I'll remove the knife and we'll see more then but some stitches will do the trick and it's a good thing you're starting physical therapy for your arm because I can tell the doctor to focus on the hand as well" he says. Blaine's about to ask something when my phone goes off.
"Hello?" I say
"Hey, kiddo. How are you?" my dad replies
"Can you guys give me a second" I ask them and they leave the room. "Physically I'll be fine but I have a really important question" I sigh and blink back my tears.
"What is it?" my dad asks worriedly
"Do they go away?" I ask sadly
"No, you can try and push them away or forget but those images will still be there, every time you close your eyes one of them will pop into your head and it's alright Kurt" he says softly
"How can it be alright?" I demand and brush away the tear that manages to fall.
"They keep you from losing your humanity; they keep you from becoming a heartless bastard"
"Then how do you deal with it, these are my first but there will be more how do you keep from falling apart?" I ask
"You accept it, you accept the fact that it's them or you, that this is your life, you stay strong and remember that none of the men you kill will ever be innocent bystanders, they will be men that have killed and tortured" he says and I hear voices in the background "Son I have to go but call me if you need anything"
"Alright dad" I sigh
"Kurt. I love you son, stay strong"
"Love you too" I say and hang up. "You can come in now" I yell. They enter and go back to whatever they were doing without asking questions.
"Does it hurt?" Blaine asks me after he sits back down beside me.
"No, I can feel him pull but other than that I really can't feel anything" I say and smile at him reassuringly "You look a little green" I tease
"Yeah well, my boyfriend is covered in blood and has a knife stuck through his hand so forgive me for feeling a little sick" he says and pouts.
"I'm fine and the knife won't be there for much longer"
"Will there be more blood?" he asks
"Yeah, but that's normal" answers Tony and grabs the gauze that will cover the stitches
"What's the matter Blaine, blood makes you queasy?" laughs Gabe
"Yeah but I'll get used to it" he says
"Alright boys, let's see how much damage the knife did shall we?" Tony says excitedly. We all lean a little forward so we can see as he pulls the knife out slowly. "Well, I'm not there is no resistance so that's a good sign" he points out and puts the knife aside when it's out completely. "I'll just put some gauze to stop the bleeding and…. Done" he says and moves my hand to be palm up "I need you to join each finger separately to your thumb" he instructs and we all watch as I do what he asks without any problem. "Now make a fist" again I do as he asks with no problem "Just move your fingers however you want" we watch a little bit more before he takes my hand starts to patch me up "Well it looks alright and like I said before the physical therapy you have this week will help"
"How long will I have to be in therapy for? I need to start practicing again if I'm going to be in the next cheerleading competition" I ask
"For about a week and a half" he says and inspects his work "Then Sue can torture you all she wants but tell her to take it easy for the first week"
"Yeah, she told me that as soon as I got back we would be working on getting my upper body strength back to what it used to be and cardio" I sigh
"Sucks to be you" sing songs Gabe
"Shut it or I'll tell her you want to join" I say and he instantly stops laughing
"You wouldn't dare" he says wide eyed
"Watch me" I glare at him
"Fine I won't tease you when you come back dead tired to the dorms" he pouts
"Alright boys you're all set, I'll send one of the guys to deliver your pain meds and I'll see you in two days to begin therapy" says Tony and leads us to our car.
"Kill me now" I groan at lunch after two weeks of training. The entire table starts laughing.
"Is it really that bad?" asks Nick from beside me and nudges me to make me sit up and start eating
"Yeah, I mean how bad can it be, it's only cheerleading" says Andrew and the boys that had seen the competition snort "What?"
"Oh, Andy, Andy, what you have been missing, coach is the devil in disguise and her purpose is to get us to win every single competition we go to no matter what it takes, she once tried to use a rocket launcher when I quit to help the football team" I say happily
"What?" they all spit whatever they were drinking
"Ewww" I say and hand them napkins "Anyway, yeah she tried but I interfered and made her move the time of the competition so that I could go to the game and the competition on the same day"
"Ohhh now I want to see you compete, can we go?" asks Andrew humping in his seat
"No, it's the week of exams and it's on Thursday but since its nationals it'll be on TV so you can watch it here and then go back to studying" I say
"That'll do" he says excitedly.
"So, why do you want us to kill you?" asks Blaine "You've been training for two weeks now, what will be different today?" he points to my food so I take a bite before answering
"Today will be hell because we'll be doing the routine until perfection then run for forty five minutes with weights on our ankles and wrists then pushups, sit-ups and work on our abs" I sigh
"Damn, I'd be dead with only the last three things" says David
"Wait, that's today?" asks Jeff sadly
"Yeah, why?" I ask and look around to find several others pouting
"But today is guys night in" he whines
"Huh?" I ask even more confused
"Didn't Gabe tell you?" asks Nick and when I shake my head they all turn to glare at my twin "Gabe!" they all yell
"I forgot, I was going to tell him but then my girlfriend Emily called and I completely forgot" he says sheepishly and they all groan
"Fine but when you get back you better watch a movie with us" says Jeff and crosses his arms and pouts, some of the Warblers doing the same
"Okay but how come not all of you are acting like six year olds?" I ask and they either laugh or protest at being called a child.
"Some of us made plans to go home so we could avoid it" Andrew says happily
"And thank God for that" says Jason and before they could say anything else the bell rang
(Blaine POV)
"Hey Blaine, got any sharpie?" asks Jeff in the middle of our second movie.
"What for" I ask and look where Jeff is pointing to see Wes asleep. "Jeff no, he'll kick your ass when he wakes up"
"Pleaaaassseee, please, please, please" he begs
"Fine but don't come crying to me when he hurts you" I say and hand him the marker.
"Of course not" he says and starts making his way towards Wes "I'll go running to Nick" he laughs. We all watch as Jeff draws a mustache, glasses and "l love Rachel" on his forehead.
"Oh my God, he's going to kick your ass when he sees" David says through his laughter.
"Everyone, step away from Wes and Jeff if you value your life" I whisper and Flint, Thad, Trent, David, Gabe and even Nick move to where I am to avoid any harm.
"Nick" Jeff whines when he turns to see his boyfriend sitting next to us "You're supposed to always be with me, I'm your boyfriend" he pouts
"I like being alive and well Jeff and if you do to you'll put your i-phone away" he warns when Jeff takes out his phone to take a picture. And like always Jeff didn't listen and snapped the picture which made Wes wake up because he forgot to turn the flash off.
"Damn" he mutters and runs for the door
"What the hell did you do Jeffrey?" yells Wes and races to the bathroom. "Ahhhh" we hear him yell from the bathroom and move away from the door "Where is he?" he demands as soon as he cleaned his face
"We don't know he just took off" I say
"I hope you said goodbye Nick because your boyfriend is screwed when I get my hands on him" he says.
"Wes calm down, you know Jeff, he's a child and it's not like he put it on facebook" I point out. We all look to our phones when they vibrate and start laughing "Scratch that, he did put it on facebook "
"What?" he yells and checks his phone
"Hey, at least it's the warblers private page" offers Nick
"Yeah, Rachel will never see it and all of the guys are used to Jeff, remember when he did it to Thad?" I say and we all laugh, remembering when he drew a braw on his chest and put a blond wig.
"See? He means no harm" says Flint
"Fine but I at least get to smack him" he says and seats down next to us
"Deal" we all say
"Kurt you promise you won't let him hurt me?" we hear Jeff say when the door opens a little.
"Promise now get inside" comes Kurt's tired voice and we hear the door close behind them.
"Wes" Jeff yells from behind Kurt "I'm sorry, I'll take the picture down but please don't hurt me" he begs
"It's fine Jeff" he says calmly
"What the hell happened to you?" Jeff says as he comes out from behind Kurt
"I was reminded of the fact that you're a child" Wes says and we're surprised of his behavior until he smacks Jeff hard.
"Kuurt, you said you'd protect me" he whines as he rubs his head
Kurt drops his bag near his bed, takes off his jacket and sits down on his bed before answering "Yeah, well you should have stayed near me" he yawns and falls back onto the bed.
"Is he okay?" I ask Gabe
"He's fine, just tired he'll join us in a few" he says and we shrug and turn back to the TV
When Thad stands up to change the DVD and Kurt hasn't joined us I stand up and find him completely asleep "Gabe, I think its best if we leave, he's asleep" I say and they all join me around the bed.
"Guys, it's fine. Kurt just needs a power nap and then he'll join us" Gabe says and starts to remove Kurt's shoes and socks "Can you pull the blankets down?" he asks Nick, who is on the top.
"Sure" Nick does as he's told and we watch as Gabe slowly moves Kurt to the top and tucks him in.
"Aww, he looks so cute" says Jeff "Can I take a picture?" he asks excitedly
"Sure, he won't be too pleased but it's his fault for falling asleep" says Gabe and moves away from the bed so Jeff can take the picture.
"Guys the movie's about to start" whisper-yells Trent and we all run to the TV.
We're all so engrossed by the movie that the rapid breathing and movement from behind us startles us all. "Shit" mutters Gabe as he bolts upright and turns to see the bed behind us. We turn to see what's going on and find Kurt sweating, breathing rapidly and moving around.
"What's wrong with him?" I ask worriedly and run after Gabe when he stands up and moves to the bed.
"You should get out of here" he says and sits down besides Kurt and starts to shake him awake.
"Yeah right, like that's going to happen" snorts Wes
"I ask again, what's wrong?" I demand when Kurt starts muttering.
"He's beginning to have a night terror" he says and jumps to straddle Kurt when he starts thrashing about and yelling
"Kurt! It's okay, you're alright" Gabe says between screams "Help me keep his arms down" he yells and I move to do so
"How the hell do we stop this?" I panic when Kurt begins to cry and say 'sorry' over and over
"We try and wake him up" Gabe says
"How about water?"offers Jeff and at Gabe's nod, he rushes to the bathroom. "Here" he says and hands a glass to Gabe.
As soon as the water hits Kurt he bolts upright and looks around in pure terror and panic "It's alright Kurt, you're alright" Gabe says and hugs him "Calm down, you need to calm down" he soothes and Kurt hangs to him like his life depended on it. "Can you give me his inhaler?" Gabe says and point to the night stand. I move to get it and try to give it to him but he shakes his head and motions for me to do it.
"Kurt, baby, I need you to calm down and breathe this in deeply before the attack gets worse" I say sweetly, wipe away his tears and place the inhaler on his lips. "There you go, breathe" I say and smile when his breathing begins to slow down.
"Come on" says Gabe and stands up carrying Kurt bridal style to the bathroom. We stay behind and hear some talking before the door closes and the shower is turned on. Gabe comes back into the room sits down and rubs his face tiredly; I turn to the clock and notice that half an hour has gone by since Kurt began having the night terror.
"Those this happen often?" asks Thad , breaking the silence.
"The night terrors don't usually happen but they're really bad and leave him tired and unable t sleep well for a couple of days but the nightmares happen regularly since he refuses to talk to the psychologist and any medication" he says exasperated.
"What now?" I ask sadly.
"Now, we pretend it didn't happen" he says and starts changing the sheets
"What? We can't just pretend it didn't happen, he needs help" I say angrily
"Obviously, but he refuses to talk about it, what the hell do you want me to do?" he snaps
"Nothing" says someone and we all turn to see Kurt standing there with his hair dripping, pj's and looking beat. "I expect you to do nothing"
"Kurt, you can't just let this slide" says David and makes him sit down next to me on Gabe's bed.
"You have to talk about this, let us help" I say and lay back with Kurt between my legs, resting on my chest.
"Can you help me forget the blood, because that's all I dream about. I dream about mom, men that have died protecting us and the ones I killed can you help me do something about that?" he asks with both anger and sadness.
"No but-"
"Stop" he cuts me off "Just stop, don't you get it Blaine, that's it, you can't help. Last time dad made me go to the psychologist she wanted me to remember, to open up all those wounds, to talk about it but I can't because it took me years to build those walls, it took me years to close those wounds and I can't open them up because the dam would break, I would break down and I can't have that" he whispers and we all look at him sadly. I open my mouth to ask but I can't seem to find my voice but thankfully Nick notices and asks for me.
"Why not?"
Kurt begins to laugh coldly at that "Because I'm Kurt Hummel, I'm the heir of the Hummel clan, I'm supposed to be in control"
"Kurt, you're sixteen. You don't have to be in control now, now is the time to deal with all of this because you don't have an entire clan relying on you, so please talk to the psychologist, please" I beg and make him look at me "Please"
"Fine" he whispers and we all smile.
"I'll make the appointment for Monday" Gabe says "But right now I want to see The Nightmare before Christmas so move your asses to the couch" he yells.
