The Dark and The Light (Kellic)

* Thirteen *

The rest of the weekend went a lot better than Friday night. As soon as Vic and I woke up, we left and went to my house for the rest of the weekend. Lynn came over on Saturday to tell me she got a job. I decided I was going to wait a little bit longer to get a job.

Getting up this morning was really hard. I didn't get much sleep last night because I was alone. I kept thinking about what would've happened if I didn't kick him when I did.

I got physically sick at the thought of Ty. Why would he even want to do something like that to someone?

I was sitting in the library when Vic walked in. Well, Vic and friends. Sometimes they come, sometimes they don't.

"Hey guys." I said to them. Vic sat down next to me and kissed my cheek. Jaime gave me an uncomfortable glance. He actually gave me weird glances a lot. Mike ruffled my hair and Tony gave a small wave. I'll have to talk to Vic about Jaime later.

"Kellin, you look exhausted. Are you alright?" Mike asked, looking concerned.

"Yeah, I'm alright. Rough night I guess." I sighed. Vic grabbed my hand that was sitting on the table, entwining our fingers. I looked over at him and gave him a small smile. He knew exactly what was going through my head.

School took a long time to end after lunch. Last period seemed to take hours instead of minutes. I was just relieved that Vic doesn't have too work today.

When I walked out to the parking lot, his car was gone, but he was standing in the spot where the car usually is parked. What in the hell, Vic? It is February. Not to mention that there is snow on the ground.

"Vic? Where is your car? It's too cold to walk." I said to him.

"I need to have a talk with you. I know if I drove to your place, Lynn would come with us, so I decided we are going to walk." He said, starting to walk towards the sidewalk. My stomach dropped at those words.

"Victor! You had to do this on a day I wore a skirt?" I asked him, slightly annoyed. He turned around to look at me.

"Oh, shit. I didn't even notice the skirt." He said. I just rolled my eyes and walked beside him. I was really cold to say at the least. Vic must have noticed because he wrapped his arm around me and pulled my body closer to his.

"Well, are you going to talk or what?" I asked him.

"Oh, right. Well, today, while we were in the library, I saw the look Jaime was giving you. I probably should've told you this before, but the reason I didn't talk to you sooner than I did was because Jaime and I were a little bit of a thing." He said, sounding very uncomfortable. I stopped dead in my tracks. I quickly regained myself and started walking again.

"So. I'm guessing he still has a bit of feelings for you?" I asked, slightly worried.

"I guess so, but.." He trailed off.

"Bu what?" I asked him. I was actually scared at this point.

"It's not important." Vic said, scratching the back of his neck.

"Vic. What were you going to say? You got me all confused now." I said, stopping our movements so I could look at him properly.

"Fine. Kells, I have more feelings for you than I ever did him. Kellin, I think I might love you." He said, looking down at the ground. My response probably wasn't the right thing to do.

I detached myself from his grip and ran down the sidewalk. I don't know why I was running, but I was. I ran the whole ten minutes to my house. Once I got inside, I sunk to the ground. Vic might love me? Do I even feel the same way? What even is love? 

I sat on the floor for about two hours. My phone went off numerous amount of times. I didn't bother to reach into my bag to answer it. I only got up when someone started knocking on my door.

Vic's POV

"Kellin, I think I might love you."

I should not have said that. She probably thinks I'm an idiot or something. When she started running away, I knew I did something I shouldn't have done.

I stood there in shock, watching Kellin's figure disappear. I honestly felt like crying right now. That hurt a lot more than it should have. I sighed, shoved my hands in my pockets, and started walking to my house. All the 'what if's' were flowing through my mind right now. What if she doesn't want to talk to me again? What if she feels the exact opposite way? What id she breaks up with me?

I vigorously shook my head. Kellin would never break up with me, right? I really hope not. I don't know if I actually love her or not. I don't think it's very strong if I do.

When I got home, I almost ran up to my room. All I wanted to do was be alone for a few hours. I guess Mike heard me because his door opened slightly.

"Vic? Why aren't you with Kellin?" He asked, stepping into the hallway.

"We kind of had a disagreement." I said, shrugging him off. I walked into my room with him following me.

"Dude, about what? Are you alright?" He asked, sitting on the bed next to me.

"I told her about Jaime. Then she got upset because I didn't tell her sooner. I accidentally told her I loved him. I don't know whether I actually love her or not, though. I don't really know if I'm okay. I think I actually might call her or something." I said, falling back onto my bed, pulling out my phone. I scrolled down her contact and pressed call. It rang for about three minutes until it went to voicemail. I sighed and tried again, but still no answer.

"Mike, she won't answer me. Will you call her?" I asked him. Mike sighed but pulled out his phone. Again, she didn't answer. "That's it. She's mad. Hurt? Confused? Ugh!" I shouted, throwing my hands in the air.

"I'm sure she's just confused. I mean, you did just accidentally told her you love her. Give her about an hour or so to call you back." Mike said, patting my back. I nodded and then went upstairs.

-

An hour later, my phone didn't go off. I got up and walked to Mike's room. "Mikey, she didn't call or text me back yet. I know I'm being paranoid, but I'm worried." I said.

"Get in the car. We're going to Kellin's before you explode or something." Mike said, getting up from his desk. I groaned, but stood up. Don't get me wrong, I want to go see Kells, but what if she's mad?

Mike practically sped to Kellin's house. "Mike, can you slow down?" I asked him, gripping the seat. He took a deep breath then slowed down a bit.

"I'm sorry. I'm just as worried for Kellin as you are." He sighed.

"It's fine, but I would like to get there in one piece." I chuckled lightly. Mike looked over to me and smiled. I smiled back at him.

When we got to Kells' house, we both practically jumped out of the car. Mike walked up to the door and knocked loudly. I shot him a warning glance before the door opened.

When the door eventually opened, Kellin was standing there, looking like a mess. I could tell she was surprised to see me. Her hair was pulled up in a bun and looked like she hadn't moved in hours. What have I done to my girlfriend?
