Vacationing Can Be Deadly Chapter 4
AN: I know that I haven't updated in quite a while...Maybe that is a bit of an understatement and I'm so so sorry but this is one of those stories that you need lots and lots of inspiration for and the only inspiration for this story seems to be watching horror movies and getting terrified but I will be watching The Roommate in a few days so hopefully that will scare me and give me lots of inspiration. But anyway, I'll give you all a recap of what has already happened:
Bart had a country house in Vermont and so he decided to take Blair and Nate and Serena. But Lily wanted Serena to take Jenny and Eric so that Lily and Rufus could have some time to privately talk. Then, Jenny decided to invite Dan and Vanessa.
Blair and Chuck have a bedroom next to Serena and Nate and above Chuck and Blair's room is Vanessa and Dan's room. (So they hear everything that is going on)
On the first night, Jenny sees a figure in her bedroom, watching he sleep.
Chuck, Blair, Serena and Nate all go into the village the next day and visit a cafe, whilst Nate and Chuck are off playing pool, Serena and Blair become friends with the waitress, Cindy. Cindy tells the girls that her friend, Tina Hersam has gone missing, along with the local bad boy, Aaron Black. She then tells them the legend of White Eye, a killer from the 1960s.
Blair and Serena do some research and find out that White Eye killed 14 people and his real name is Lewis Cheatham and when he was younger he spilled boiling water down the left side of his face, this turned his left eye pure white and earning him the nick-name; White Eye.
The next day, Serena, Nate, Dan and Vanessa all head out to the cafe when Serena sees Cindy, who tells them that Tina's body was found in a river.
Blair and Chuck are in the outside pool when they decide to have sex. Whilst having sex, Blair notices a burned man watching them. She tells Chuck and the man makes a quick escape, back through the woods, at the back of the garden.
Whilst Chuck is upstairs attempting to soothe Blair, Jenny and Eric are downstairs in the wine cellar getting alcohol, when they return, they spot the man in the kitchen and hide.
When everyone returns, they all learn about White Eye.
And I think that's everything...
Enjoy!
XOXO
"We need to leave, now" Vanessa said standing up.
"I think we should contact the police first" Dan replied.
"Contact the fucking police? What help are they gonna be?" Jenny argued.
"I think we should contact the police. They might find out who killed Tina Hersam." Chuck piped up.
"I agree with Chuck" Blair said still holding onto him she looked out of the living room window. "And I think we should do it before the sun disappears"
"This is ridiculous, I mean it can't be White Eye can it? It'll just be some sick fuck" Nate said encouragingly to try and put a smile on Jenny's terrified face.
XOXO
"They've put me on hold. On fucking hold" Chuck said angrily. The sun had now gone down and it was pitch black outside. Blair stroked his arm and handed him a mug of coffee, with a little scotch in it.
"Here. Drink this" She said.
"Thanks. Is everyone packed up?" He asked. Blair nodded.
"Yep. Everyone's ready to go"
XOXO
"Eric" Jenny said as she zipped up her suitcase.
"Yeah" He replied.
"Do you think the person who killed Tina is the same one that was in my room the first night?" She asked.
"I don't know, maybe"
XOXO
"They're looking into our investigation, but they say that it's far too late to do anything now. So we just have to wait until the morning" Chuck said to Blair hanging up the phone. She was now out of her white fluffy dressing gown and in plain, white vest top and a pair of white Matt Bernson 'Monaco' gladiator sandals. She also wore a white headband.
"Wait until the morning? When there is a psychopathic killer just out there" She pointed towards the back glass doors leading out into the pool area and the woods just behind the house. "Its all right for everyone else! They're not right next to the woods like we are!" She shouted.
"I know, Babe. I know, but there's not much we can do about it" Chuck replied rubbing her shoulders.
"If I wasn't so fucking terrified, I'd run out there and go all crazy on that bastard! No one ruins my holiday with my boyfriend and friends!" She pouted. He smiled and kissed her.
"I know" He took her chin in his fingers. "When we're back home, I'm gonna take you to Paris, okay? We'll go and see you Dad and Roman, sound good?"
She smiled. "Very"
Serena and Nate walked in.
"How'd it go?" Nate asked.
"Not good" Chuck replied.
XOXO
"So you're telling us that we just have to stay here, when there could be a murderer just around the corner?" Jenny almost screamed.
"There's nothing we can do. We'll just all lock the doors and be extra careful. No one will travel around in less than two. Just to be on the safe side" Chuck replied.
"How is locking the doors and travelling around in twos going to solve anything? The person already knows that were here!" Vanessa replied annoyed.
"Well, I don't see you coming up with any better ideas!" Blair defended.
"Hey!" Dan piped up protectively.
"It's true. Your plan of action is probably to film the entire thing on your video camera!" Blair replied loudly.
"Oh that is it!" Vanessa exclaimed standing up. Blair also stood up fiercely and walked over to her. Chuck looked at Dan and was about to stand up when Vanessa shoved Blair.
Blair, screamed and shoved Vanessa back, who then shoved Blair again. Blair, now really pissed off, grabbed Vanessa's hair and began to pull it, sending Vanessa's head back.
"Oww!" Vanessa screamed as she grasped at the air with her palm and attempted to slap Blair across the face. Chuck now stood up and so did Dan and both rushed over to their girlfriends attempting to pull the two apart.
"I hate you! You're not even supposed to be here! You hippy!" Blair screamed.
"I hate you more! You think I really wanted to come here and listen to you and Chuck fuck each other at all hours of the morning! I'd rather sleep on the streets than spend another night here with you!" Vanessa shot back. Blair pulled her hair harder, hoping for an extension to fall out. Chuck and Dan managed to grab both girls away from each other at that point and push them to other sides of the room.
"And one more thing you Bitch, Chuck was screaming so much louder when I had sex with him!" Vanessa shouted.
"Oh no" Serena and Nate both said at once.
"This is going to be fatal" Eric whispered to Jenny, who nodded in shock and horror.
Chuck tried to hold Blair back but she wasn't having any of it and broke free of his tight grasp around her waist and marched straight over to Vanessa.
"You did not just say that!" She shouted. Vanessa nodded.
"Oh yes I did. And I must have been good because he decided to do it again! His screams with me were more...How do you put it? Satisfying?" Vanessa replied. Blair felt anger bubble up inside of her and she slapped Vanessa across the face. Everyone gasped. Even Chuck who was now running over to Blair again.
Vanessa dived on Blair and pinned her to the floor and she began to pull at her hair, pulling her headband off.
"God! I hate your stupid headbands!" Vanessa yelled as she tossed the yellow band to the floor.
"Ow! My headband!" Blair cried as she pulled at Vanessa's hair. She pulled as hard as she could and an extension came out. "At least I can grow my own hair" Blair screamed. Nate and Eric tried not to laugh as Chuck and Dan went to intervene. Chuck was laughing though and so was Dan.
"Get off of me!" Blair screamed just as Vanessa was about to slap Blair, Dan caught her hand and pulled her up whilst Chuck helped Blair up and then held her by the waist. She tried to go for Vanessa but this time Chuck wasn't letting go of her and scooped her up in his arms bridal style and carried her over to where Serena and Nate were sat.
Dan led Vanessa over to the other side of the room and sat her down on a couch. Serena rubbed Blair's arm in a soothing motion as Blair glared at Vanessa from across the room. Chuck stroked her shoulder lovingly and held her on his knee like a little girl. After a few moments, Blair stood up.
"If you'll excuse me" She said walking off and up the stairs. Serena gave Chuck a look and he nodded and stood up.
"I'll go" Chuck announced as she stood up. Serena nodded and Chuck walked over to the stairs and then up them.
XOXO
Chuck knocked on the door and opened it gently. He silently prayed that she wasn't in the bathroom and popped his head around the door and noticed her sat on the bed with her head in her hands.
"Can I come in?" He asked in a soft tone, causing her head to snap up as she stared at him.
"This is your house, I can't stop you" She replied. He smiled gently and walked in, closing the door behind himself with a click. There was a long pause before he finally spoke.
"Well, you know; I was only screaming with Vanessa because I closed my eyes and pretended that she was you" He told her. She scoffed.
"Well, I'm flattered" She replied, her tone sarcastic. He smirked.
"It didn't work though, she was nowhere near as good as you"
She smirked. "Glad to hear it"
"No one's as good as you. Not even the specially trained"
"Well, I don't think that I'm better than the world's best pole dancer, Bass" She said.
"You are. You're perfect to me. I know every inch of your body" He smiled as he walked over to her and sat next to her on the bed. He kissed her shoulder and then began kissing her neck, sending volts of electricity through her making her smile. "What turns you on" He replied as his hand travelled up her dress to her silk panties. She caught his lips and began to make out with him. He was just about to remove her panties when Serena walked in. Making the young couple jump.
"You really need to work on your timing" Chuck said to his step-sister whilst removing his hand from Blair's underwear.
"And you two really need to turn down the sex" Serena shot back.
"I wish we could just go home" Blair sighed.
"I know" Serena agreed.
XOXO
"I can't believe that just happened! It was so funny!" Jenny laughed.
"It wasn't funny, it was humiliating" Vanessa replied.
"It was hot though" Dan said. Nate chuckled.
"I suppose I did make her retreat" Vanessa said obviously happy with her achievements.
"You should stand up for yourself more often" Dan encouraged.
"Well, when I want to talk to my media professor next time I might just rugby tackle the other people that want to get to him first" Vanessa giggled.
Chuck appeared on the stairs clutching a small hand that belonged to Blair as he led her down the stairs and into the living room where everyone else had now stopped their conversation and stared at them as Serena followed them down. When all three were seated on a couch, Chuck spoke.
"Right, there is no way that we leave this house tonight, on any terms, we lock all the doors and windows and they stay locked-No matter what, we go around in twos and I think that we should all have a weapon, just in case" Chuck announced.
"Isn't that a little far-fetched?" Vanessa asked.
"Not when there's a potential killer on the loose" Chuck answered.
XOXO
Serena smiled at Nate as he climbed into bed next to her.
"All of the alarms are on in the house, all the doors and windows are locked. Were all safe" He told her.
"I'm still scared" Serena admitted. Nate nodded.
"I know you are, but this time tomorrow, everything will be okay. I promise, Chuck will have the police around here and we'll find out what happened"
Serena cuddled up close to him.
"I'm glad you're here" She smiled.
XOXO
Eric had just gotten into bed when there was a knock on his door.
"H-hello?" He asked. The door opened slightly to reveal a blonde skinny girl standing in the doorway clutching a pillow.
"Eric, can I stay with your tonight?" She asked. Eric nodded and pulled back the comforter for Jenny to walk over to and crawl into.
"Are you okay, Jenny? You seem really shaken up"
"I just can't help but thinking, if I'd stopped that person that was in my room on the first night, then Tina Hersam would still be alive"
XOXO
Blair sat on the bed, curled up with the comforter wrapped around her. Chuck, came out of the bathroom and noticed the look on her face. It was as though she was in a daze. He sat on the bed next to her.
"I want to go home" She murmured.
"I know" He replied. "I should never have brought you here; if anything happens to you...Or any of us, I'd never forgive myself" He told her. She looked at him and took his face in her hands.
"Hey, nothing will happen. And this is not your fault; You didn't know" She replied kissing him.
"I have to protect you, no matter what; You are my number one priority. I promised your Father I'd look after you" He replied. Blair smiled at him and they both lay down.
"You do look after me" She smiled as she rested her head on his chest. He kissed her head softly.
"Try and get some sleep" He advised her. She nodded and he reached over to turn the bedside lamp off.
"No" She said quickly, making him look at her. "The light stays on"
He nodded. "Okay" He agreed wrapping his arms around her waist, holding her close to him.
"I love you, Chuck"
He smiled and kissed her lips. "I love you, too"
XOXO
Vanessa opened her eyes gently and looked at the clock on the nightstand. It was 2:15am. She thought that she heard something outside, but she couldn't be too sure. Then she heard it again, it sounded like a scream in the distance. She shook Dan, but he just rolled over onto his side and continued to snore. Vanessa got out of the bed and grabbed her video camera, turning it on; she then went into the en-suite bathroom and sat on the toilet and hit the play button. An image of Vanessa popped up on the camera screen.
"Okay, so I've been here now for four days and we are already set to leave. Someones body has been found and Blair, Chuck, Jenny and Eric are all adamant that they saw this guy in the kitchen and near the woods and apparently it looks just like the infamous serial killer, White Eye from the early 60's. Could this be a copy-cat killer or has the real murderer just come back from the dead for revenge?" Vanessa watched herself on the camera talking. The video was from earlier that night. She then hit the record button again and placed the video camera of the sink's counter so that it was facing her.
"It's still the fourth night now and it's exactly 2:18 am and I've just been awoken by a loud noise coming from the woods. It sounded an awful lot like a scream, a lady's scream" Vanessa paused as she heard something else.
"Help! Help me!" A voice screamed in the distance. Vanessa stood up, took the camera and ran to the window and opened the blinds and looked out. She saw a figure stumbling out from the trees and onto the grassy area. Vanessa ran back into the bedroom and shook Dan. He murmured something and turned over.
"Dan! Dan wake up!" Vanessa shouted. Dan began snoring again and Vanessa decided to leave him. She ran down the hallway and down all of the stairs until she reached the alarm, quickly pressing a button before it went off and woe the entire house up. She then ran into the kitchen, placed the video camera on the side, facing the patio doors, grabbed the keys for the patio door and opened it.
"Hello, are you okay?" Vanessa called as she walked out and gently closed the door behind her.
The figure stumbled walked towards her; she had long vibrant red hair that had obviously been dyed that colour. She looked up and Vanessa could see that she had a slash down the left side of her face along with a bruised cheek and a busted up lip and two stab wounds to her left arm. Her white vest top that she wore was ripped and looked as though it has been slashed with a knife and Vanessa noticed that at the top of her right breast was a deep cut that was pouring with blood. She wore ripped jeans that were covered in grass stains, mud and what looked like a piece of barbed wire. The girl stumbled as she approached Vanessa and almost fell, but Vanessa caught her. The girl looked up into Vanessa's eyes.
"He's coming" The girl screamed hysterically.
"Who's coming?" Vanessa asked.
"H-H-Him...White...White...Eye" The girl stuttered.
"It's okay; your safe now" Vanessa attempted to reassure the girl as she reached for the door handle. Vanessa looked up to escort the girl into the house when she saw something emerge from behind the girl. A body. A male body.
Vanessa opened her mouth to scream but nothing came out as she saw the face of the man who was standing behind the girl who had now become awfully quiet, it was as though she had frozen with fear. Desperate tears poured down her cheeks before her face scrunched up in pain and her mouth opened into a silent scream. Vanessa looked down and noticed a long spike now sticking out from the girls white shirt, just inches away from Vanessa's stomach. The girl's body slumped forward and onto Vanessa. Vanessa looked up at the person that had just murdered the young woman in total shock. The man smiled at Vanessa and that's when Vanessa saw it.
It's murky black hair that looked as though no brush had ever touched it. It was short and choppy. The left side of his face looked as though it was severely burned. His clothes were tatty and looked as though he had worn them for years with a blue t-shirt that had mud stains and tear marks and a brown jacket that had rips and holes and was also smeared with mud.
"Hello" The man said with an evil smile.
XOXO
AN: Well...There will be a whole lot more gore in the next chapters, and I mean real gore. I watched hostel the other night and to say that it traumatised me would be an understatement but it did give me some good ideas. And I realised how soft Chuck is in this story but I wanted to portray him as really protective of Blair...
Please review and let me know what you thought of it.
Xoxo-Beth.
