Chapter 11 - old memories

I would like to thank ScotsJanoskianator for helping me write this chapter and OliviaARead for the inspiration its really appreciated :]] 

I wanted to tell him but I didn't at the same time. I had never told anyone about my past before. I had pushed all those horrible memories to the back of my mind hoping that they would just disappear. I decided to show him instead, I didn't want to speak of it but I knew I couldn't keep it bottled inside forever. I showed him the first time I witnessed him hit my mother when he came staggering to our 'home' drunk I needed some water to clear my throat. I went down the stairs to pour some when the front door slammed open causing me to jump "Pour me some whisky will ye" my mums boyfriend was home. His voice bellowed through the house, my mum scampered down from her bedroom. "I think you've had enough don't you?" He raised his hand and smacked her, hard, right across the cheek causing her to fall to the ground "You don't tell me when i've had enough" I gasped and ran to my bedroom. The shouting and banging continued most of the night. I pulled away stopping anymore memories to leave "I can't" I sobbed as Klaus held me close to his chest "How about you open up in a little bit yeah? when you're ready?" I nodded "Your shirts mascara stained" I told him and he just shrugged "what are dads for eh?" he laughed and I did too. 

I woke up the next morning and looked at myself in the mirror, my blonde curly hair was over the place. I had mascara all down my face. I looked like I had been dragged through a hedge backwards. I went into the bathroom and had a nice relaxing bubble bath. I got changed into a comfortable pair of skinnys and a baggy hoodie. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and left a few curls hanging out. I took some of my art supplies to the compounds balcony and looked over the beautiful skyline of New Orleans. It was still dark and the sky was a chalky dark blue/grey colour with hints of orange and pink threw it. I tried to clear my mind and think of something to paint but all the memories I had tried to forget came flooding back in. Mixed emotions ran threw me. I picked up my paint brush and started to paint the amazing view in-front of me. It was the only way for me to remain calm. 

Klaus "You definitely got your talent from me" 

"Do you like never sleep?" 

Klaus " One of the perks of being a vampire love and besides you have a story to finish." He said whilst walking over to me and placing his large hand on my shoulder his deep blue eyes staring into my identical ones. 

"Lets just say he didn't stop with my mum, when he was done with her he would move on to me. He was a monster and he made her what she is today." I watched threw the gap in my door. Countless different men entered my mums room and left a while later. I could hear her scream out in pain. I was only six years old and I knew perfectly well what was going on. He forced my mum into drugs and drink then made her sleep with with strange men for money. If she refused or put up any kind of fight it would fall back on me. I heard loud footsteps coming up the stairs and towards my bedroom. I knew what was coming.I took a step back, refusing to show him anymore. "He ruined our family and turned my mum into an alcoholic. He wasn't always like that.It all happened after the accident."

Klaus " What accident? " 

"My mum was five months pregnant with a baby girl. We were like any normal family. Excited for the baby to be born none more than him." We were in the car driving to school. He was driving and arguing with my mum. He wasn't paying attention to the road and we crashed into the side of a lorry. "We were lucky to survive but the baby wasn't so lucky. He blamed me for what happened, he told me that it was all my fault and I should of died instead of his baby. Ever since that day he changed. When I turned ten we finally ran away and went into hiding." 

Klaus "What happened to that little baby wasn't your fault." He said whilst pulling me into a hug.

"I know it wasn't...but" 

Klaus " No buts. It wasn't your fault you were just a little girl." 

"I hate him so much he ruined my life." The whole compound started to shake. I felt something inside of me that i've never felt before. The more upset I got the more the compound shook. 

Klaus " Kiera you need to calm down. Nothing like that is ever going to happen do you understand me?" 

I nodded my head and slowly the compound stopped shaking. I started to feel light headed and my vision begun to blur then all of a sudden everything went dark as I fell to the ground.
