Out of Everyone✯Vikklan

Chapter 19

~Magic time skip is magic~
(1 week latear)

I drag a slow walking Lachlan behind me as he pulls against it. He's whining about coming to my house just to do homework. What else are you supposed to do?

"Lachlan, come on. Just move those god damn feet and walk." People have calmed down on the judging us, but that doesn't mean there aren't girls who give me dirty looks as they walk by, guys who purposefully bump into me and make me drop my books.

"But Viiiiiiikk." I manage to pull him out of the school. He still grabs on to the handle of the door though.

"Come or I'm leaving your stubborn ass," I grumble, pretending to be frustrated. I am sort of, but I wouldn't leave him behind.

"Oh! Where is my stubborn ass? Can I ride it to your house? That'd make the trip so much funner!"

"1, you know what I meant. 2, funner isn't a word." Lachlan sighs and gives in, walking as slow as possible next to me. After what feels like an hour-although it probably wasn't-we arrive at my driveway.

"Hey, we're here. That wasn't so bad," Lachlan remarks. I just shake my head and open the door.

The first thing I notice is the amazing smell of pumpkin pie from the kitchen. I don't remember the last time I've had any. Lachlan smells it too.

"God, who's cooking that?" The second thing I notice is how remarkably clean everything is. And suddenly I'm running into the kitchen, dragging Lachlan by the hand behind me.

"Vikk! You're home! Took ya long enough," My mom says. She looks up from her pie and smiles; a smile that turns into a confused look when she sees Lachlan. "Who's this?"

"Umm this is, uhh, Lachlan?" I answer, dropping his hand. Lachlan glances at me with a frown and puts his arm around me.

"I'm his boyfriend," Lachlan adds. Mom squeals [Autocorrect corrected that to squawks the first time I wrote that. She squawked...] and claps her hands.

"Oh why didn't you call, Vikk? I want to hear all about you." Mom sits Lachlan down at a seat and sets a plate in front of him. I help myself to a slice.

"Where's dad?" I ask. Mom makes a sleeping motion and I nod in understanding.

"So Lachlan? Tell me about yourself," My mom says. She leans in eagerly with a bright smile. "How have you and Vikk been? Any fun lately?"

"Mom! You can't just ask that!"

"So that's a yes?" I feel my cheeks redden, and Lachlan shakes his head.

"Nah," He says. Then with a wink, he whispers, "Not yet at least."

"You seem like the complete opposite of Vikky here." I eat my pie in silence. "What made you two get together?"

I look at him and he looks at me. "I think Vikk would like to answer that."

"Yeah. See it all started 2 to 3 months ago. Brandon, and I were just sitting in the cafeteria and thinking it was just any other day, and Rob came to join us, as usual.

"Hey, Vikk. Hey, Brandon" Rob said, taking a seat across from me. Brandon waved with the sandwich in his hand, and I nodded at him.

"Did you guys hear about what happened with Preston, Rob?" Brandon asked.

"Ooh, what?" Rob exclaimed, but then blushed as he realized how excited he sounded.

"He broke up with Annie," Brandon informed..."

But to you, of course, the rest is history.
