Author's Notes: The two songs used were "I Wouldn't Mind It" by He Is We, blaines dream is exactly quoted from Second Chances. the second song is Cannonball by Damian Rice. he is going to be in this story a few more times. he writes wonderful music. No copyright infringement is intended!
Forever is a long, long time, But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side. Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile. I wouldn't mind it at all.
"It was the sweetest thing a person has ever done for me. It's just, the lyrics... Blaine I'm 100% sure my forever is a whole lot different then your forever."
"Yeah, I know and I've been thinking about it."
"You want to be a vampire?"
"Yes, I want to be a blood thirsty creature of the night."
"As you wish, my little monster."
I slammed awake in a cold shiver. I was hyperventilating and the room was spinning. I felt a pair of arms wrap around me protectively before I let out a screech. "Blaine, my love, relax it was just a dream. I'm right here." Kurt said soothing me and trying to calm me down.
I don't know what happened but I just lost it. Every tear I have been holding in since Quinn, just came out. I choked out a sob and Kurt just held me tight. I was losing control I've never had a panic attack this bad.
Kurt knew it to, that must have been why he started singing. "I watched you sleeping' quietly in my bed You don't know this now but There's something that need to be said And it's all that I can hear It's more than I can bare"
"Do you remember this song baby?" He asked as I began to quiet down. I nodded my head yes and he started stroking my hair back. "Will you sing the rest with me?"
"What if I fall and hurt myself, Would you know how to fix me? What if I went and lost myself, Would you know where to find me? If forgot who I am Would you please remind me? Oh, cause without you things go hazy."
I started crying again, but this time much softer and controlled. "Will you keep singing?"
"Of course." He said and sung the song again. I fell asleep to the peaceful tunes didn't dream.
When I awoke the next day Kurt was sleep and it was a little after one. With him back in my life I suddenly had urges I didn't have before. I nuzzled my nose in his neck and melted away in his scent. I kissed his jaw softly and felt the blood pumping though his veins, it made me hungry.
I kissed him more licking a bit at his ear. He smiled and woke, "what are you doing?" He asked groggily.
"Smelling you," I said innocently, "I almost never see you sleep."
"I sleep when I miss you, cause you're always in my dreams. And last night singing to you made me fall asleep." He brought his hand up and wiped the hair off my forehead.
"What did you dream about last night?"
I shrugged, I had no reason no to tell him, it was just strange to me. "You and I, on your birthday, you changed me then. But it wasn't a good dream."I said drifting away.
The subject needed to be changed before he remembered the song I sung him all those nights ago. "you know, I haven't sung in ages." I said, "its weird though because Marley and Ryder sing when they clean, Hunter sings and raps in the shower, Alexia doesn't sing, but she watches all those singing competition shows. Yet, none of them have heard me, nor do they know I'm musically talented."
"Why are you not singing?" He asked.
I thought for a moment, "I guess I loss my muse, Rachel loved my voice and made me sing with her all the time, being lead warbler gave me a reason to sing. Then there was you, I wrote for you, I haven't rhymed anything in months much less wrote it on paper."
"would you want to start writing again?" He asked me.
"I don't know yet." I mumbled after a moment. "I'm hungry."
He sat up, "do you want me to come with you?"
"No, its fine. I'll be back in an hour. Or you can go hunt too but no point in dragging you to the woods." I said kicking my feet over the edge of the bed.
"Okay, well I don't mind it if you ever want company. I'd find a way to entertain my self while you ate." He said watching me throw on my hunting jeans.
"I'll keep that in mind." I replied ready to leave. I felt suddenly compelled to kiss Kurt before I left; so I walked over to the bed and placed my lips over his. He kissed me gingerly, soft enough to keep me calm but with the passion proving he wont leave. I pulled away and muttered, "bye." under my breath.
All while hunting I though of Kurt and Rachel and how we would sing every song in every musical. I missed my piano, my guitar especially. They made up who I was. And without them I am nothing.
After sucking three rabbits and a fox down I returned to Alexia passing in the kitchen. "You're awake early." I commented seeing 3:21 on the clock behind her. The earliest anyone is awake in this house is 7 o'clock, and even that is pushing it.
"I just got a phone call from my ex, I can't sleep. What were you doing out side?"
"I also couldn't sleep and I was thinking about planting a garden, but enough about me, what happened with Connor?" I said taking off my jacket to sit at the table.
"He called me, did the whole baby I'm sorry please love me. Then told me he would be in town tonight. I don't want to see him Blaine. At all ever again." She said.
Connor was her maker, and after a few years he found another girl dumping Alexia on her ass. "Okay, so we wont see him. He doesn't know where you live. He released you so he can't hunt you through the bond. And you're not that popular, no offense, so he can't ask around." I said seeing Kurt walking towards us.
"True, these are valid points but in still scared. Its Connor, Blaine. You don't know him the way I do." She sighed.
"Lex, I'm going to protect you from him," I said putting my hand on her shoulder, "he hasn't seen you in 6 years. You're stronger now. We are a family and everyone will protect you from him. Even Kurt, and he's like almost 500."
She looked over at Kurt, "really? I mean, you don't know me from Eve."
"Well I trust Blaine, and he cares about you and anything he care about then so do I." Kurt said.
I looked at him and felt something stir in my chest. It was like he lit a candle in my dark tunnel leading the way towards him and hope for a bright future.
"Well thank you." Alexia said interrupting my thoughts.
"I think I'm gonna go back to sleep before the sun sets."
"Blaine, I have something for you." Kurt said with a soft smile. He led the way down stairs and turned on the light revealing an electric piano. "I was walking around way too anxious to stay in the house with a bunch of baby vamps; and there was this pawn shop. Needless to say this was in the window and I just knew you would love it." He explained as I stared in awe.
"I love you." I said turning and giving him a hug.
He hugged me back and kissed my forehead mumbling, "I love you." I let him go and walked over to the piano and turned it on looking over my shoulder at Kurt.
I didn't have anything to sing but I had this cord in my head. I played for a few minutes melting always to the delicate melody.
"That was beautiful." Kurt said. I suddenly felt as if hundred pounds were lifted from my shoulders. One of my many burdens was gone. I smiled truly happy about Kurt's gift to me and how music has the power to save my life.
"Lets see if we can find a guitar and a drum set. And we can go to the nice part of town and find a baby grand, and a violin."
Kurt laughed, "okay, any other instruments you want? You're not trained with any wind instruments, we can get you a trumpet or flute."
"I can play the flute but I really never liked cleaning it so after 6th grade I switched to the guitar." I explained standing up and wrapping my arms around his shoulders, his hands automatically wrapping around my waist. "I love that I'm still finding out things about you." He said before kissing me. He released me but held my hand and we walked upstairs and out the house to go pawn shopping.
We got home around 9, meaning everyone was awake and of course, Marley was worried about me.
"Blaine where have you been?"
"We were just out," I said nervously.
"Yeah, double feature at the movies. We couldn't sleep. Then one thing led to another and we were just together all day." Kurt recovered.
"Cute, but today's forecast was partly sunny with a high of 61. For late May that's pretty good." Hunter said, "I've never met a vampire that liked being out side as much as Blaine."
"Blaine isn't even a year old yet, of course he likes being out side." Kurt said, "now if you are all done being nosey little baby vamps, were going to go."
I laughed at Kurt's comment and lead the way to the bed room. "I'm afraid what they will do when they find out about this." I said holding up my hand looking at the ring.
"Nothing, I am stronger faster and wiser then all of them. I've fought werewolves, vampires, humans alike if they want a day in the sun, then their last day will be from burning to a crisp by the sun. I spent my life in the shadow and I never want that for you." Kurt said. I felt like I was seeing a different side of him, he was so openly protective of me. Being away must have hurt him more then I thought.
"Okay." I said lost in his brilliant blue eyes.
I sat at the end of my bed and looked under it pulling my red dream book. It wasn't the exact one from last summer but it was red and I wrote in it on the nights my nightmare kept me awake. I knew there had to be a song in there somewhere. Someone knocked on the door as I flipped through the book, "come in." I called out blindly.
Alexia came down with a half smile, "hiya, whatcha you doin? When did you get a piano," she asked shocked, "are you singing?"
"I am, a song for Kurt." I looked up for the first time to him, "I wrote this about a week after I moved in. I forgot about it because I had no one to share it with. I mean one that would see it for more then just cords and words."
"You want some one to feel what you sing no just hear it." Kurt said, "you've always been like that."
I nodded my head and started to sing, "Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth, Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt. Still a little hard to say what's going on. Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness, Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed. You step a little closer each day, That I can't say what's going on." I sung out getting chills from my own voice. I closed my eyes and for a small moment I actually thought I was back in Dalton's senior Commons, singing my songs to the guys, hearing the praises and the possibilities of becoming a famous producer. It hurt to think that way, because I knew I would never have that again. "Stones taught me to fly. Love it taught me to lie. Life it taught me to die. So it's not hard to fall, When you float like a cannonball." My hands moved like the ocean to the beach against the piano. "Still a little bit of your song in my ear. Still a little bit of your words I long to hear. You step a little closer to me, So close that I can't see what's going on." I remembered how much I missed Kurt when I was writing, how everything reminded me of him and how I hated it because I didn't have him. "Stones taught me to fly. Love taught me to cry, So come on, courage, teach me to be shy. 'Cause it's not hard to fall." Someone sniffle as I slowed everything down even more to sing the chores once more. "Stones taught me to fly Love r10; it taught me to lie. Life taught me to die So it's not hard to fall When you float like a cannonball..."
"Wow," Alexia said, "that was, just amazing."
"It was..." Kurt said staring at the floor. I knew he wanted to say more, it was the sad glow in his eyes that showed me he wasn't okay.
"You weren't hiding were you? your voice Blaine, was sent from the gods! You're amazing. Best in the house if you ask me." she said but I was only half listening.
"I'm not hiding anything Lex, I'm just waiting for the right time to say things." I said standing, taking two strides to Kurt. I put my hand on his cheek making him look up at me, "what is it?"
"Nothing." Kurt sighed keeping his eyes casted. It took him a moment but he finally looked up at me and took my hand. "Its nothing Blaine." He kissed my knuckles. I let it go for now, but when we were alone I needed to know.
Alexia waas watching our interaction silently, she could see what Kurt and I had, that was the only reason she would say, "Blaine can we talk, well go for one of our walks moreover..." when she thought Kurt and I were done with our silent conversation.
Every night, either right when the sun sets or just before it rises she and I would walk and talk. It was how we first go to know each other and after a while it was how we talked about our day, or night. Since Kurt had come back I put everyone a side. Including our walks/talks.
I looked over my shoulder at her and smiled. "I've been preoccupied, we can go now though if you'd like."
"Sure, I'm going to throw on some shoes." She walk out the room.
I looked at Kurt. "I'll be back soon." I said. He pulled me close until I was sitting in his lap.
"Are you going to talk about me?" He asked in a teasing tone.
I smiled and kissed him slowly. "Maybe." I said before kissing him once more pulling my whole body into it.
His tongue kissed vigorously while his arms held me tight. His hand traveled up my back into my hair. I let out a moan as he pulled me closer to him, then with his vampire speed he changed our positions.
I was on my back laying in bed with him lying on top of me between my legs. I stuttered and pulled away. "I sorry." He panted rushing to get off of me. "Its fine." I said still laying back, I sat up on my elbows, "its really fine. But I'm going to go now." I stood up and walked out without another word.
I couldn't help but smile as i walked out, i shook the memories of sex out of my head and looked up to see everyone was looking at me. "What?" I asked innocently.
"Alexia is outside waiting for you." Marley said, "fix you're pants before you go outside." I looked down and Kurt managed to unzip my pants without me noticing but he forgot to undo my belt. I also slightly hard but that was my own problem.
I fixed my pants on the way out and saw Alexia in my jacket at the stair case to our house. "We have a lot to talk about...." she started. I nodded my head in agreement and started walking.
