Vikk and I have returned back to the hotel and I fall back onto my bed, tears flowing down my face.
"S-sorry." I say, wiping the tears away. "I-I'm a mess."
Vikk falls next to me, on his stomach, and slowly wipes my tears away, wrapping his hands around my waist and pulling my close to him.
"It's okay... You can cry. I'm here." Vikk says, and I do. I wrap my arms around him and cry into his chest until I can't cry anymore. Eventually, darkness takes over and I fall asleep to the steady sound of Vikk's heartbeat.
----------------------------------------
A couple hours later, I wake up. I notice that Vikk is not next to me, but in his bed, on his phone. I smile at his kindness."What?" Vikk asks, and I snap out of my positive thoughts.
"Nothing. I just feel a lot better. Thanks, Vikk." I smile.
"That's great!" He smiles back. "Celebratory dinner?"
I laugh. "For being happy?"
"Of course! Why, is that wierd?" He asks, and my smile gets bigger, my eyes softening.
"No, it's not." I reply, standing up. "Be back in a few." I stand up, grabbing my makeup bag and walking into the bathroom.
I grab a washcloth and wipe the dried tears away, then brush through my unkempt long hair and put a little blush on, along with some eyeliner.
I emerge from the bathroom, the atmosphere so much better than before.
I'm so happy... I feel like a massive weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.
"You ready?" Vikk asks, and I nod. I grab my purse and we walk out the door to Five Guys.
----------------------------------------
We walk into Five Guys, order, and sit down with our food. I eagerly eye my burger, and Vikk laughs."You love your burgers, don't you?" He asks.
"Of course!" I reply. "But not as much as I love fries!" I giggle, grabbing two cups of fries.
"Daaaammnnn girl." He says, and we laugh.
"Race?" I ask him, picking up my burger.
"Alright." He agrees, picking up his own. "Three, two, one, go!" He says, and we both dig in, laughing and trying to finish before each other.
In the end, we both tied.
We walk out of Five Guys, full, and decide to take a walk through the park, the one that Preston and I used to always go to...
No, Caitlin. You're moving on. And the first step of moving on is to forget about him.
Some flowers catch my eyes, and I grab Vikk's arm. "Vikk!! Look how pretty these are!" I squeal, admiring the pretty flowers.
"They're cute." Vikk says from behind me, and we move on, looking around and having a good time.
----------------------------------------
I put on one of Vikk's hoodies, which isn't much bigger than what I normally wear, and compose myself for what I am about to do. I pick up the note that I have written, and put my hair back in a bun."I'm going!" I tell Vikk, who is sitting at the desk, recording.
Typical Vikk, always working so much.
He stops recording and turns to me. "Alright, be safe." He smiles at me, and I smile, nodding.
"See you in an hour or too!" I reply.
