To New Beginning's

Chapter Two

Silas watches as Kol enters the school gates looking as guarded and alert as ever.

"Seriously what the hell is up with that new kid? He appears like he's always on edge" Damon states and just to prove his point; Kol looks over his shoulder eyes searching, proving Damon right.

Kol hurries through the gates of the school not feeling particularly safe outside them ever since Ethan had sent the message, and Kol couldn't shake the memory of last time he had tried to leave.

He trembles just thinking back to it. Kol feels the burning pain of the engraved scar on his right hip.

He unconsciously rubs his hip, as he walks through the crowded hall of people. Flinching when someone accidentally bumps into him.

His breathing becomes more laboured so he moves quickly towards his first class which happens to be physical education.

Coach Winters decides he's going to make them run track, which Kol was quite happy to hear. Kol changes into his Nike PT Gear, before heading out onto the field.

Kol sees Silas and his twin stretching over near the benches so he decides to head in the opposite direction of them before doing a quick warm up.

Kol pops his iPhone into the armband and pops in his earphones. Running was something Kol loves, and no one could take that away from him.

Coach Winters let the boy's go, watching them jog off and do whatever the hell they wanted. He watches as the twin Salvatore's joked about shoving each other over. His eyes then flick over to the new boy who seemed lost in his own, little world, jogging around and around the field.

Kol kept running laps of the large field lost in his thoughts. So when someone shoves into him making him collide with the ground, it catches him by surprise, Kol's eyes flick up to see who had pushed him over and met a pair of hazel eyes.

"Shit sorry man, you alright..." Stefan apologises before trailing off as he notices the boy's shirt had ridden up during the fall and Stefan sees the word 'Mine' engraved on his hip.

Kol sees where he is looking and quickly pulls his shirt down covering his hip back up "its fine" he mutters before hurrying away from the two pairs of curious eyes.

Silas and Stefan watch Kol move away from them like a deer in the headlights.

"Did you see..." Stefan mumbles to his brother "Yeah I saw, what the hell was that?" Silas replies curiosity is lacing his voice. Yep Kol was someone he wanted to figure out.

Kol pushes himself harder as he sprints. He needed to feel the burn in his lungs and calves so Kol kept running until he can't breathe properly through his mouth and nose, before bending down to catch his breath.

Kol took deep breaths sucking in the much-needed oxygen; his phone began ringing so he presses answer thinking it was one of his siblings, but oh how wrong was he.

"Enjoying your run? You look like you're a bit out of breath, babe" Ethan's cold voice travels through the earphones, making Kol's heart stop abruptly.

Kol glances in every direction looking for Ethan, but he can't see him, but he knew Ethan was watching, "H-How did you find me?" Kol's raspy voice shakes. Ethan's chilly chuckled caused Kol to get goose bumps.

"I will always know where MY property ends up, and you, darling are mine. Now listen to what I'm going to tell you and you will do as I say, or there will be consequences alright" Ethan orders.

Kol knew enough from his past that when Ethan wants something, there was no denying him because the consequences of doing so were always horrible "O-Okay" Kol agrees, clenching his eyes closed.
