Vikklan: Secrets

Chapter 1 Alone Together

{Lachlan's POV}

Have you ever had that feeling, that you love so much it hurts you. That's how I feel everyday. It hurts to love him. This would be way easier if he loved me back. I don't care if the whole school makes fun of us. It only matters if we get to be together.

"Lachlan, are you ok?" No I'm not Vikk, I love you and I want you to love me back.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Can't you tell I'm not.

"Don't lie to me. I can tell something's wrong." Your right, I love you, and I want to tell you, but I know you don't love me back.

"It's nothing.

"Lachlan, please tell me. I can help." This is the one thing you can't help. I know you don't like me.

"You can't help this time. And if you did, it would be impossible."

"Just tell me." I wish it could be that easy.

"I wish I could."

"Lachlan...."

"No Vikk, I can do this myself. It may take sometime, but I'll try." I would be so easy to give up right now.

"If you need help, just tell me. I care a lot about you Lachlan. Your my best friend. It means a lot that you actually care about me.

"Thanks Vikk, but I think I can do this."

"If you need any help, just text me."

"Will do."

"Goodnight Lachlan."

"Night Vikk."

The part that hurts me even more, is that his flight is in two days. I wish he could stay here longer, but he has to go back to England. I need someone to talk to. I know who, Preston

Please answer your Skype, that's all I ask. A face pops up onto the screen.

"Preston, I need your help."

"What's wrong."

"It's about Vikk. He leaves tomorrow, but I don't want him to go."

"Did you tell him yet."

"I was going to, but then I freaked out too much. My stupid anxiety."

"Lachlan, it's ok."

"No it's not, he's probably not even gonna like me."

"Lachlan don't say that. A lot of people like you. And I've seen the way Vikk looks at you. I'm pretty sure he likes you. This is why you always call Preston when you have a problem.

"Really?"

"Of course."

"Ok. I'll tell him then. But what happens if I get too scared."

"When does Vikk leave."

"Two days."

"How about I catch a plane tomorrow morning. And I can help you if you get too nervous." Gotta love Preston, he'll do anything for you.

"You'd really do that."

"Of course, your my friend. And friends help each other." He always says that.

"Thanks Preston."

"Anytime. See you soon."

"Later dude."

"Later."

So, I get to tell Vikk I like him. It's gonna be a hell of a day. I don't know if I'll be ready in time. Thank God Preston will be here. Better get some sleep, I have to be ready.
