The Only Good Thing Left in Me [Kellic]

Chapter Nine

A/N: Hey guys what goes on?! This book is already at 500 reads and that makes me so happy ^-^ It's not the most original idea, but I do have some sort of idea for the plot as I said last chapter. ALSO, I'm gonna be working on a better cover for this fic because the current one is boring :p But that's all for now, enjoy!

*Vic's POV*

Mike and I made our way to the gates of school, me being nervous as living hell. I felt a little better with Mike by my side, and my definite friends that would support me. But that wasn't enough. This whole day made my stomach churn. I knew at some point I'd have to face Jenessa, Jaime, and Kellin. All three I was not looking forward to.

"You'll be okay Vic, I'll meet up with you later." Mike told me as he diverged his way to his group of friends, leaving me by myself.

It felt like freshman year all over again. being shy, not knowing who to speak to and who not to, being scared to stand out. All bullshit feelings that come along with society. I trudged down the hall to my locker. No surprise, it had a bunch of hate words and condoms taped to it. Hahaha, very funny. Not.

"I guess you'll be needing those" An all too familiar voice spoke. I turned around to face none-other-than Jenessa Mury. Here's the thing about me, I was scared, but I wasn't going to let it show. Instead I was going to be an asshole about it.

"Yes Jenessa, I am a gay male. Problem? Of course there is. I could give less of a shit though, so you're wasting your time." I said nonchalantly.

The crowd that took no time gathering, "ooh'd" and "damn'd" at my snarky remark.

She just gave me a death glare and walked off with her group of girls. I turned back my locker as the crowd dismissed, removing all the condoms and throwing them away. She was definitely a bitch, but I stood up to her and in the moment that was all that mattered.

I threw my backpack and other unnecessary items in my locker. I noticed a white note sticking through one of the air vent holes.

Meet me behind the cafeteria today. I just want to talk. - JP

I sighed, tossing the note in the trash as I made my way to first period.

Thankfully, seeing Kellin's captivating face made my anxiety dispel. He's just a captivating person in general. The way he's constantly moving or messing with his hair. Or how he's always making sure his clothes are intact. Mesmerizing. I was beginning to have it bad.

-

Lunch rolled around all too quickly and I mentally rolled my eyes at having to face Jaime. He first of all kind of had a secret thing for me, and he made Kellin think we were together. Of course, he didn't know that I knew, but still. Creepy.

I peaked my head around the cafeteria to find Jaime pacing back and forth. Probably practicing how he was going to address me. He stopped pacing when he noticed my presence. "Vic...I gotta tell you something."

I groaned. "Let me guess, you're gonna tell me that you told Kellin that we were together. Yeah, already know."

"He told you that?" He asked. His voice was laced with menace, and I found myself taking a step back at how prominent it was. Even though it was only present for a split second.

"Whatever...it doesn't matter. Anyway, no I need to tell you something else."

"You have 30 seconds Preciado." I said in annoyance as I crossed my arms and shifted my standing position.

"Vic...I wanna get back together."

My mouth flew open in bewilderment. "What?"

"I know, I know it's terrible. I'm terrible. But the only reason I've been hurting Kellin is because he's too close to you!"

Okay, now my fists clenched with ire.

"I'm sorry, come again? You've been doing what to Kellin?

"Vic I- I swear I didn't. I- I just mean the first day, when I pushed him! I swear!"

"You lying piece of shit! Fuck you Jaime! Don't you dare hurt him! Not like you did me!"

"Vic I promise I didn't do anything. I haven't even touched him since that day. I swear." The short little Mexican shit was lying right through his teeth.

"I don't believe you! Jaime, I refuse to let anyone else be hurt by you. I will not stand around anymore. Not after you did that bullshit to me."

"Vic..."

"Get the fuck out of my sight! And if you ever touch him again, you'll deal with me this time. I'm a different person now. A person that will not take your shit any longer. Promise you that."

He tried to embrace me, but I just threatened him again. He had a look of contrite on his face, but I didn't falter.

Jaime and I had a rough past. We got together in freshman year, but soon enough he began to get extremely violent. It'd be little things, like me not texting him back because I had a test that would make him livid. I remember the first time he ever hit me, it was also the day my self esteem dropped for the first time. But just around last year I finally got he courage to leave him. I started going to therapy,and I've been better and more confident about myself. I'm at least strong enough to walk away from any abusive situation.

A few minutes after he left I stomped my way back to my little group of friends. They all had looks of question on their face, and I didn't dare open my mouth when they questioned. If I were to do that, it wouldn't be good for anyone's ears.

Mike knows me because he's my brother. When he strolled around to check on me, all it took was one look and he told everyone to give me my space. I appreciated everyone trying to pacify me, but it wasn't exactly working. Instead, I told them to continue with whatever conversation they were having before I arrived. It took a second for the tensity to die off, but after that, the rest of lunch was a breeze.

-

I was grateful I had Kellin in my life. Even after lunch, he was texting me in sixth period trying to cheer me up. I had to admit, it was working. I had to keep covering my mouth and biting my tongue to not burst into a fit of laughter from the adorable things he sends. He makes my heart flutter.

-

The forty minute class zipped by and next thing I know, Mike, Kellin, Alysha and I are heading for my car.

Kellin and Mike got in first, leaving Alysha standing. Kellin punched my brother's arm in mock anger. "Mike! That's no way to treat your girlfriend!" He giggled.

Mike rubbed the back his neck while, this time, I punched him. Hard. "Why didn't you tell me?!"

Mike shot a glare at Kellin "Well I was GOING TO make it a surprise...but this dipshit ruined it." We all laughed as Alysha and Kellin switched places, leaving Kellin and I in the front and them in the back. I smiled at the thought. This turned out to be a good day after all.
