Chapter seven - Me no pedophelia

I can't believe I'm actually admitting this , but  being in this car ride with Vic is a little , or maybe even very awkward. Even more awkward then our very first car ride together.  It's not that I don't like being around him anymore but it's just that I'm not used to being around him anymore.

I felt like this whole situation is how one would encounter when they had already broken up with their boy or girl friend and after so many years of being seperated and never see-ing each other , they some how meet again through a mutual friend and got forced to communicate with each other . Of course in my case , I asked Vic to spend the night at my house, I don't want to punch him in the throat and I still love him very much. I guess I'm just a little too overwhelming with this whole situation and hopefully the stay over would change that. I just want to us go back to like we used to.

From the side of my eyes I could see Vic looking at me with his body leaned forward towards my direction and his mouth slightly parted , like he was about to ask me something but then he slumped back into the car seat. This was the third time he's done that . I just wish I knew what's going on in that pretty little head of his. I feel like there's so many things that I want to say to him but I'm afraid to . What if I start talking and then Vic decides that he doesn't like me anymore ? I've been told by Jaime , Tony and a couple of my old high school friends that I still keep in touch with , that I've changed. I've been told and I quote , 'I have mature into a young gentlement' . Technically , Vic's still 18 , turning 19 in 3 months-ish .  I was 18 when we fell in love with each other and I'm now 32 ,  turning 33 in a couple more months. What if Vic thinks that I'm too old and too boring ? Back then I was the wild , popular kid with an attitude. And now , well, I'm the doctor that spends his free time sleeping on the couch because I can't even make it up to my room.

" Kellin ! "

" Huh what ? " I asked , turning my head to the side to look at him. I was still a little out of it from getting too lost in thought.

" Waffle ! " Vic squeaked , pointing infront of him . I turned my head to look at where he was pointing and I realized that I'm driving on the curb , heading towards a guy wearing a waffle costume .

" Shit ! " I cursed and quickly turned the starring wheel , steering the car back to the right direction. The guy in the wafdle costume just stood where he was , not moving a single muscle. I would be in shock to if I were in his position. Damn, that nearly gave me a heart attack. I really hoped I didn't scare Vic .

When the car stopped at the red light , I turned to Vic to make sure he's alright. I know how his little heart can't take things like this.

" Vic , are you alright ? "

He was starring straight ahead , slightly shaking but slowly he nodded his head .

"Come here " I put my arm around his shoulder and pulled him close to me . Well, atlease as close as I'm allowed to considering we were in the car.

" I'm sorry kay? I'll drive more carefully " I said , rubbing up and down his shoulder . The light turned green and I pulled away from him , giving my full concentration on to the road.

" It's too soon " I heard Vic whisper to himself .

" What's too soon ? " I questioned . He look at me , startled that I heard his teeny tiny baby whisper.

" I-I just it's - " I knew he was trying to come up with a lie , so I turned to him and quickly shot him my ' the truth , Vic ' face before focusing back on to the road. Can't risk almost running into any guys in waffle costumes anymore.

He sighed in defeat , " It too soon to almost been seperated from you again. "

That really made my heart ache. I just got him back and after what he said , it got me thinking about what would have happened if I did run over that guy and possibly crashed into the brick wall behind him. I didn't want to think about me leaving him all alone or him leaving me again.

" I'm sorry baby " I grabbed a hold of his hand and squeezed it tightly , " I promise you, we'll never be seperated again. " I brought his hand to my lips and kissed the back of his hand.

" You promise ? " I could hear the hope and happiness in his voice.

" I promise " I reassured him.

" Good! " He leaned to my side and give me a quick peck on my cheek , making me all giddy and smiley inside.

" I was afraid that you didn't love me anymore. I thought back to when I told you to move on and then I thought , what if you already moved on and I'm standing in the way of your new relationship ? And oh , kells! I felt so evil ! I was thinking of ways to eliminate my competition ! "

" Silly, you could never be replaced ! I'll always love you no matter what. And I must admit, I was afraid that you wouldn't love an old man like me. "

Okay, I probably shouldn't have used the word old man. I'm pretty sure I made this age thing a lot creepier than it already is, to some people that don't know our story atlease. I'm really don't look my age , to be honest. I'm sure I can pass off as a 20 something year old . 26-28 maybe . He's just lucky he still looks 18.  Okay, even when he was 18 he looked like he was 16 . But whatever.  There's botox . I'm sure it wouldn't hurt getting my hands on a few when I start wrinkling.

" Just out of curiousity. How exactly would you get rid of my competition ? " I asked because I was genuinely curious and I was also making sure he doesn't get enough time to over think the age thing just like I did.

" Well, I will start by roaring at him or her. "

" Show me "

This is going to be good.

He put his his hands up , curling his fingers into a claw like shape.

" Rawr "

He moved one of his hands forward like he was going to scratch someone. His rawr sounded more like a baby kitten meowing. It was adorable. He was adorable.

"Very scary " I laughed

" I know " He smiled proudly , " But if that doesn't work , I will ask him to pack his bags and get out of the house "

He leaned in to my ear , like he was going to tell me a very important secret .

" I'm not even going to say please " He whispered.

Wow , no please ? He must really love me . And I'm not even trying to be sarcastic . He has got to be the most polite person ever in this world. So , him not saying please. That's really saying something.

" You're such a sweetheart " I smiled sweetly at him. He seemed really happy with my compliment because next thing I knew he was grinning at me and bouncing up and down the seat.

I shook my head at him playfully and turned in to my driveway . I took my keys out from the glove box and pressed the button that opens the auto gate to my house .

" We're home " I called out as I drove into my front porch.

Needless to say, the awkwardness has been broke  and I just know that tonight is going to be great.

Also, a shoutout to guys in waffle costumes.
