"No, but listen to me, why did the chicken cross the road?" Vic announced to his best friend, Jaime Preciado.

"Because he didn't want to be a cockblock." Jaime answered in monotone, rolling his eyes. Vic rolled his eyes and sat back in his seat, folding his arms.

"Why don't you love my jokes?" Vic whined.

"Because they're lame and dumb." Jaime said, finishing his salad. Vic mumbled under his breath and rolled his eyes, taking out his phone.

"So are you but you don't see me complaining" Vic replied.

Vic and Jaime were in the cafeteria at their school. Vic wasn't in the mood of eating today because well, he describes the food choices (as of today) as 'Utterly shit'.

Jaime grinned widely as he shoved Vic a little bit to grab his attention. Vic looked up from his phone just in time to catch his long time crush; Kellin Quinn.

"Now, why the fuck would you do this to me?" Vic groaned laying his head on the cafeteria table. Jaime shrugged.

"Why is he so beautiful? I'm lowkey sobbing." Vic mumbled.

"But you're highkey not. Get up, you're fine." Jaime rolled his eyes. Vic sighed lifting his head up, watching as Kellin sat down at a table by himself.

"I'm guess The King of the Hills isn't here today." Vic said.

"Who?" Jaime asked in confusion, throwing his food away as someone came around this the garbage bin.

"You know The Hills?" Vic motioned his arms as if Jaime should know what he's talking about.

Jaime thought hard then replied, "The song by the Weeknd?"

Vic showed no emotion to his face. He could be mistaken for a reaction picture with the caption of "are you serious?"

"If you're that scared to talk to Kellin why don't you just text him and not say it was you?"

Vic blushed, "What? I don't even have his number?"

Jaime rolled his eyes, "Please! Even God knows you secretly have his number." He said with a duh tone. Vic rolled his eyes and say back in his seat.

Jaime got up from his seat and sat beside Vic. "Come on now! Do it, he won't know it's you!"

Vic looked at him for a solid minute before taking his phone out of his pocket, punching in his password and going to his contacts.

"How'd you even get his number?"

"I have my ways" Vic shrugged, "Now, what should I say?"

"Um, hi?" Jaime answered like it was obvious. Vic rolled his eyes but typed in hi anyways.

Hi (:

"A smiley face? Really?" Jaime questioned looking at Vic's phone.

"Stop judging me you fucking pointy zucchini ass" Vic pressed the screen of his phone on his chest to prevent Jaime from seeing his phone.

Vic visibly frowned as the bell rang for their last class. Vic packed up his things and swung the bag over his right shoulder.

"Did he text you back?" Jaime asked. Vic shook his eyes.

"Nein" Vic signed.

"Maybe he doesn't have his phone with him, but I have to go to class so I'll see you later"

"Okay, see ya" Vic said walking off to his destination. Vic watched as Jaime got out of his seat and walk away probably to go talk to his friend Treyvon or whatever his name was. Vic could care less.

He then saw Kellin still sitting at the table alone since Justin Hills— the Hills that Vic was referring to earlier— wasn't there.

Vic wanted to go sit and chat—and probably go say hi but he was too much of a whimp to do so. He wanted Kellin to look up so he can see his eyes but his hopes were crushed and he immediately rushed to class before he was late.

As soon as Vic walked home, the house was quiet so he assumed he was alone. He ran upstairs to his room, throwing his backpack near his computer desk, and flopped on his bed.

He reached for his phone that was in his back pocket and looked to see any messages.

Oh. So you know who I am? Is this a prank?

[Unknown 3:06 pm]
Of course not! I was taught into doing this because I'm scared to talk to you in person

[Kellin 3:10 pm]

[Unknown 3:11 pm]
Not like that! It's like you know, having a crush on someone makes it harder to talk to them /:

[Kellin 3:12 pm]
Crush? On me? Is this a prank? Are you Justin?

[Unknown 3:13 pm]
