My Secret Love-bite

Chapter 4

Zach kissed my cheek and walked back towards his car. I smiled and waved as he pulled away from the kerb. I sighed, turned and walked into the house closing the door behind me. Blaine was stood where he had been this morning when I'd left. He still wasn't smiling but he wasn't ignoring me which I guess was something.

"You're still in one piece then. You know I didn't want you going out with him. Where did you go anyway? Did he hurt you? Did he threaten you? Did he-" It was like being interrogated by the police. All he needed was a flash light shining in my face and he may as well have been a police officer. I didn't want to listen to it especially not from my over protective brother.

"Don't be sarcastic with me Blaine. No he didn't threaten me, no he didn't hurt me. I wasn't going to let you stop me going out with my boyfriend anyway. Oh and we went to his house." I cut him off I didn't want his 'concern' for my well being with my boyfriend. You'd think they'd never have met. My last line had brought Blaine's jaw back to the floor exactly like this morning except this time it didn't stay there. Just as I turned my back on him to go back to my bedroom I heard something that made me stop in my tracks.

"You know then. Well you must do, Mitchell wouldn't let you step foot in his domain if you didn't." I couldn't tell whether he had lost his mind and was talking to himself or was talking to me but looking everywhere but at me. I'd never seen him so on edge yet completely calm. He was like a duck: on the surface gliding along calmly but underneath paddling away urgently. I pretended I had no idea what he was on about because I was sure he couldn't know the Belcourt's secret. It did make me stop one foot on the bottom step and my hand on the bannister. I didn't look at him. I didn't want to until I was sure he didn't know what I knew.

"I don't know what your on about." Okay so it made me sound really guilty but what was I supposed to say 'of course I know my boyfriend and his family are vampires' whilst beaming at someone who may not even be talking about the same thing as me. I tried to sound innocent but I had a suspicion Blaine knew, especially as he caught my attention.

"Cassia Sarah Sanchez, look at me!" Just the sheer anger and control in his tone made me spin around and walk towards him. I stopped short with my hand raised to slap him as hard as I could for having the audacity to try to act like my father. I almost fainted at the sight of my reflection in his white, pointed... fangs. I couldn't help but gasp as he simply smiled and said "Yea I know his family's dirty little secret." Then my brother and the world faded to black just like a film as my head hit the cold floor.
