~ Dream ~

Kellin strolls into the house, looking sharp in a suit as he's just got back from court. You smile widely and hug him.
"How did it go!?!" You ask excitedly.
Kellin shrugs you off him "Fine." He snaps before walking straight past you, not even sparing you a glance.
"Are you ok Kels?" You ask nervously.
Kellin turns sharply to face you "Im perfectly fine, its YOU thats bothering me! You're so fucking clingy (Y/N)! Just give me some goddamn space! Im dealing with enough shit as it is without you pestering me all the time with your whining!" You notice his eyes arent the same, they're dark, empty, harsh.
Your own eyes fill with tears at his words. "I-Im sorry, I-I didnt mea-"
"Sorry!?! Oh that makes everything better! My life was fine until you showed up! I could've worked things out with Kate if it wasnt for you! You're such a fucking waste of space!" Kellin growls.
That. Stung. You fall to the floor, cold and shivering with tears rolling down your cheeks. Kellin grabs your shoulders and pulls you u-

~ End Of Dream ~

You sit bolt upright in bed. Holy shit. That was awful. Tears roll down your cheeks as you huddle yourself under the sheets, wanting to bury yourself and hide away forever, feeling like Kellin had really said those things, even though it was just a horrid nightmare. You'd been friends with Kellin since high school, you and him have always been close. When he got married, you didnt see him as often anymore, and that saddened you. They got divorced and Kellin was depressed about it for a few months, he moved in with you and you helped him through it. He went out today to fight for custody of his daughter in court. Since he's moved in you've been trying to comfort him as much as possible, hugging him, playing video games that he wants to play, watching movies that he wants to watch, anything to make him feel better about losing his wife. Maybe you've been too clingy...? You fall back in bed and cry yourself into a dreamless sleep, you didnt want to be awake when Kellin gets back, just incase he does say those awful things to you.

You've been keeping your distance since the nightmare. You havent been hugging him, or offering to play video games or watch movies with him. You've just stayed out of the way. You've still cooked him meals and washed his clothes etc, but you've barely spoken. You're terrified to talk to him after that nightmare. Its so stupid. That nightmare WASNT REAL! It didnt REALLY happen! Still, you dont want to risk anything, you love Kellin too much.
You're staring out of the window now. Arms wrap around your waist from behind and a head rests on your shoulder. You jump. "Its only me (Y/N). Are you ok?"
You nod "Fine." You reply, barely audibly, before releasing yourself from Kellins grasp and almost running to the kitchen, desperate not to talk to him.
You place your hands on either side of the sink and take some deep breaths. Arms wrap around your waist again. "(Y/N), whats wrong? You've been acting so distant lately...did I do something to make you act this way?"
You shake your head "I-Its fine, I-Im fine, honest." You lie, really badly.
Kellin sighs "(Y/N) please! I miss you! You're stuttering with nerves because you're talking to me, something is definitely up! Please, tell me what I've done wrong!?!" He begs.
You take a deep breath "Remember...remember a week ago when you went to court?" Kellin nods, egging you to go on. "That night...I had a terrifying nightmare. Y-You came home and wouldnt look at me, you were pissed off at me, you wouldnt let me hug you...I asked if you were ok, you said that you were and that I was the problem. Y-You said I was too clingy and I needed to give you some space. You said your life was fine b-before I showed up, and you blamed me for your divorce. Th-Then you called me a fucking waste of space. I-I woke up crying, I was t-terrified that you were gonna leave because of those reasons, so I've been giving you your space. I-Im sorry for annoying you all the time, I dont m-mean too!" And, with your explanation over, you burst into tears.
"(Y/N)..." Kellin says softly as he turns you around and pulls you into his chest. You cry into his shirt. "You need to listen to me, that nightmare wasnt real, ok? I would NEVER say those things to you, EVER! You've helped me so much lately, and Im so lucky to have a best friend like you! I needed your cuddles more than ever, and you gave me one whenever I felt even slightly down, you always cheered me up, you werent too clingy at all! The divorce was not at all your fault, and my life was shit before you showed up. You're not a waste of space at all (Y/N), you mean everything to me." He explains gently.
You snuggle into his shirt and sniffle. "I-Im sorry for abandoning you over a nightmare."
"And Im sorry for saying that shit to you in a nightmare, Im such a douchebag what the fuck!?!" Kellin jokes, causing you to laugh slightly. "I missed you so much (Y/N), please dont shut me out like that again. I still need your cuddles, and I think I always will. You're so beautiful, any guy would be lucky to have you, I know you're way out of my league and its stupid for me to even think I have a slight chance at being with you, but I was wondering...would you like to go out on a date with me sometime?" He asks nervously.
You gasp and nod frantically into his shirt "Hell yeah! Our first date can consist of me beating your ass on Mortal Kombat X!" You giggle.
Kellin laughs "Is that a challenge?"
"Maybe for you, but for me it'll be so easy I might fall asleep on my controller!" You pull away and stick your tongue out at him.
Kellin gasps "Oh it is ON!!!" You both run to the living room and start battling to the death. Actual first date goals.
