Warning- MAJOR Drama ahead
--
Chapter Twenty Four-
It had been three weeks since that day when I first heard Vic's band, and since then a lot had happened. Jack F, Gabe, Jesse, Justin and I had finally started practicing with each other, mainly playing covers, until recently when we started working on our own songs. And recently, we had become more serious about the band, and had even talked about sending a demo to a record label. Justin had finally asked Sarah out after two weeks of knowing her. And despite the fact that Justin was still hurt by what happened with Lindsey, but I think you could say that he was slowly moving on from her, day by day with the help of Sarah.
Vic and I were still going strong, though both of us had yet to say I Love You to the other, but I knew for sure that I felt that way about him. Vic was still recovering, and every now and then, I'd get a call from him in the middle of the night, about how he was on the verge of breaking and needed me. Never once after that night did I not call Vic back if I missed his calls, which I never did. He had even met my mom, who was at first surprised to learn that I was gay, much less dating a boy. But in the end, things had smoothed over. But Vic's parents were different.
Vic was too fearfully to tell his parents about us dating, but he did tell them that he was gay, and of course, they went onto to say how it was just some phase that he'd grow out of, before returning back to their busy schedule of ignoring their kids.
And as for Oli, ever since that day in at the lunch table weeks ago, he hadn't approached any of us, though we sometimes saw him starring at us, a smirk on his face, before he'd quickly turn away. All of us thought that he had given up on making our lives hell and we had almost forgotten about him even, though we still saw him in the hallways. His friends even stopped picking on our friends, and so had he. While everyone thought he was done screwing around with us, I had a feeling that wasn't the case. I knew Oli for years, he doesn't just quit for no reason. If he hates you enough, he won't ever leave you alone, no matter what.
Vic was untouchable though. He's one of the most popular guys at our school, no one would ever mess with him, ever. Not even Oli. But me? I was less untouchable. I maybe friends, and more then friends, with some of the popular kids, but I was still that loser that Oli loved to torment. He wasn't just going to stop trying to get to me. Every day, I still replay that scene in the cafeteria. That glint in his eyes as he looked between me and Vic, it was almost as if he knew what was going on between me and Vic. "This'll be fun." Those words constantly replay in my head, every single day.
We were at the cafeteria again today, everyone just chatting with each other. I turned my attention away from what had happened over the past few weeks, and tried to focus on Vic and Barakat's conversation. "Your telling me, that your not going to study? At all for Mrs. Lovett's (A/N- MAJOR bonus points for those who can guess what movie that name is from.) history test?" Vic asked Barakat, starring at him in surprise.
Everyone, and I mean everyone thought that Mrs. Lovett was just a little bit crazy, and her test were ridiculously hard, hardly anyone ever got a hundred. If you were lucky, you'd get a B at best, and that's if you study. Barakat grinned proudly at Vic, shaking his head. "Nope, I got this in the bag!" He said, turning back to his food in front of him. I rolled my eyes. He's so going to fail, I thought to myself as I watched the two of them talk.
Alex chuckled shaking his head and whispering to me, "Jack told me he was going to secretly study, just wants to look cool in front everyone." Alex said, grinning and moving back to his original place, leaning his head against his hand on the table. I smiled, shaking my head at that, and turning to look around. Mike was engrossed in a conversation with Tony, Jeremy and Austin were chatting about something, Jaime was just joining Barakat and Vic's conversation, Jack, Gabe, Nick, and Jesse were all talking, and Justin and Sarah were flirting with one another, Typical day.
That was till I noticed Oli walking over to our table, Matt and Josh Franceschi by his side. Instantly, I felt Vic tense, and I turned to see that he was starring at Oli too. Oli grinned as he got closer to our table. "Well, hello Kellin, Vic. How are you mates doing this morning?" He asked, his British accent standing out above all the american accents around him. Vic clenched his jaw.
"What is it Oli?" Vic asked him, standing up from his place at the table. Oli simply smiled at him, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Oh, nothin' mate. Just wanna see how that ever so lovely couples doing." He said, his eyes glancing at me then back to Vic. I swear, my entire heart stopped. When I looked back at Vic, I saw that his face had gone pale, all the blood had drained from his face. Oli grinned deviously at us. "Oh yeah, I know about your guy's "secret relationship"." He said, smiling at us.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Vic had moved from his place behind the table now, and was walking over to stand in front of Oli. And even in this moment, I couldn't help but notice how small Vic looked in front of Oli, who looked extremely intimidating. Oli smiled, innocently almost.
"Oh? You don't think anyone's noticed how close you an' Kellin seem ta be? Or how protective you've been over the chap for the past few weeks? Or the secrets glances you two always share? Oh Vic, everyone's seen, and now, everyone knows." Oli told him, grinning as he watched Vic's reaction to everything he was saying.
I glanced at everyone at our table, who seemed just as shocked as Vic and I were. They were all starring at Oli wide eyed, and some of them were even looking around the cafeteria, as if looking for proof that people really knew. Vic stood his ground though. "Your lying. There's nothing going on between me and Kellin." He said, determinedly. I looked down at the table, hoping to block out everything that was going on around me.
"Ha, try all ya want mate. The look on Kellin's face is enough proof to say your lying!" Oli laughed, shaking his head. This couldn't be happening, everything was going so well, everything was perfect right now. Everyone was happy, everything was looking up finally! Vic was finally becoming happy! Vic shook his head, his arms crossed against his chest. "Oh, and, everyone's found out about your other dirty secret Vic, about mama and papa, and your.. What should we call it.. Addiction."
No, no, no! How could they even know about that! Only Mike and I know about that! And only our friends know about Vic's parents! There's no way they know about that. Someone banged their fist against the table, making all of us turn to look at them. It just so happened to be the younger Fuentes, Mike, who was staring at Oli is disgust and hatred. "You don't even know what your talking about!" Mike said to him, glaring at the older boy.
I looked at Vic, who looked as panicked as I felt, but worse. His eyes were darting around the room, as if he was looking for an answer. Then, his eyes landed on me. He stared at me for minutes, before ducked his head, muttering something, and then taking off the other way.
