*25 days ago*

"I'm leaving, Kellin, see ya later." I heard Vic shout from the front door. I looked at him from the couch just to see the little smile he sent my way before he left the house.

He's been so moody lately. Just yesterday evening we had this huge argument which ended with both of us getting pissed off and now, the morning after, he's smiling like nothing had happened.

We were fighting because of the drugs, surprisingly. I was trying to take them from him but he got so angry I had thought he would hit me. I was scared out of my mind, the malignant look he had on his face was something I never wanted to see again.

Anyway, after the argument, he just walked away from me and sat on the right side of the couch, with his arms folded over his chest like the stubborn little shit that he was. I, however, did the same thing, only sitting on the left end of the couch. And so we sat there like that for maybe an hour before he fell asleep. Long story short, I ended up lying next to him and wrapping my arms around his frame until I drifted off to sleep as well. Our friendship really was an odd one.

Furthermore, the little I'm-not-talking-to-you moment gave me some time to think of a plan how to help Vic. Therefore, just as the door closed I waited ten minutes, just in case Vic came back for something, and then rushed to the bathroom where I knew he had his stuff. I opened the door and immediately went over to the cabinet that was above the sink. I opened it but it was completely empty.

"Damn it." I muttered to myself and closed it. I looked around the bathroom and my gaze fell upon the toilet. I stepped closer to it and looked down but it was nowhere on the floor. My last thought was to lift up the lid of the vat and sure as hell, there it was. A semi-full sack of white powder.

Without wasting any time, I opened the toilet lid and emptied the contents of the sack into the toilet. I picked up a half-full water bottle from the floor and poured it in as well, watching the drugs disappear. I let out a sigh of relief and walked back downstairs.

I grabbed Vic's laptop and turned it on. Vic would always take the laptop with him when he went over to his house and charge it so we could watch movies. I picked Addams Family Values and began watching it.

"What the fuck?!" I jumped awake at the sound of Vic's voice. I looked around but Vic was nowhere to be found. Just then I heard the footsteps on the stairs and realised that he had been upstairs. I closed the laptop and set it aside. I was about to stand up but Vic kind of did that for me. He grabbed me by my collar and lifted me up from the couch.

"Where the fuck are they, Kellin?" He spat at me, letting go of my crewneck.

"I-I threw them out." I nearly whispered. His eyes widened.

"You did what?" He asked, his face showing a confused look.

"Threw them out, they're gone." I said, pulling my sleeves over my hands and tugging on them shyly.

"You're kidding, right? You're just fucking with me, aren't you?" He asked, giving me one last chance to say 'haha, you actually bought it, they're in my pocket, let's do some together, shall we?'

"No." I sighed, looking at my feet. Vic was quiet for a while as if putting his thoughts together and then it began.

"Fucking hell!" He yelled, kicking into the couch and making me jump. "Why would you fucking do that? For fuck's sake." He kept yelling and I backed away from him but he noticed and walked over to me.

"Vic, I'm sorry, I did it to help you. I just wanted to help you."

And then he slapped me.

I gasped and took a few steps away from him. My back hit the wall and I slid down to the floor. I placed my hand over my cheek where he hit me and looked up at him in shock. It brought so many bad memories I'd wanted to forget. He had probably the same expression as me, his hands were covering his mouth and his eyes were wide.

"Kellin, I-oh my god." He kneeled beside me, cupping my face in his hands. I felt the tears coming and sniffed a little. "I'm so sorry, I-I don't know what came over me, fuck, I'm sorry." He kissed my cheek and then again and again and again.

"You're such a fucking asshole." I pushed him away from me a little and began punching his stomach as the tears ran down my cheeks. I would like to say that I hurt him, but I wasn't strong, not even in the slightest so he grabbed me by my wrists and pulled me into a hug. "I hate you so fucking mu-uch." I cried into his neck, gripping at his t-shirt.

"I know, Kells, I know." He choked out, rubbing my back. We stayed like that until I calmed down and then I pulled away and looked at his face, surprised to see that his cheeks were wet from tears as well. "I'm so sorry, I never wanted to hurt you, Kellin."

"Yeah, well, we both know it's not exactly your fault." I told him and he nodded.

"I know and I want you to help me." He said. I looked at him in disbelief.

"You do?" I asked with a small smile playing on my lips.

"Yes."

*Present day*

"I'd say it was a very emotional moment for you." Dr. Fish announced as he handed me a tissue.

"Yeah." I choked out, laughing a little. I wiped off the tears and smiled softly at Fish. "I was just so glad he wanted my help, y'know. He had helped me so many times before so I was glad to help him as well, he just means so much to me." I said, smiling at the thought of Vic.

"So you still love him then?" Doctor asked, sending me a small smile. My smile widened and I nodded.

"Yeah, I do."
