Wonderless (Kellic VS. Fuenciado)

Wonderless - Chapter 14

[Mike’s P.O.V]

 

 A few days had passed since Vic’s… um… breakdown. He’d been really distant lately, but I had my suspicions as to why. Kellin certainly had something to do with it. I’d only seen Kellin come out of Vic’s room to get him food or whatever, but never Vic. I had the feeling Kellin was trying to keep Vic away from me. The reason, I have no idea. But I’ll do anything to find out.

 I hate the feeling of my own brother being pulled away from me. I mean, I know he loves Kellin, and I’m pretty sure Kellin loves him (for the better, I’m hoping), but I can’t help but feel Vic is going to forget about me.

 Exhaling a sigh as I sat up on my bed, I picked up my phone and dialed Jaime’s number. Despite him being super hyperactive and weird all the time, he usually knew what to do in serious situations. The line rang for a few minutes until I heard him say ‘Hello’.

 “Hey, Jaime, it’s Mike.”

 “Oh, hey, Mike. What’s up?” I quickly began to explain my situation to Jaime, excluding the part about Vic’s self-harming from the other night, and waited for a response. He seemed to mumble something to himself, something I couldn’t hear, and let out a sigh. I could practically hear him frowning through the phone.

 “Have you tried to talk to Kellin?” he asked.

 “No, but I’m afraid if I do he’ll just yell at me and then tell Vic I’d been mean to him or something. I’m kind of at a loss right now.”

 “Well, let me try to think of something. I’ll get back to you later, okay?”

 “Alright…”

 I hung up the phone and flopped back onto my bed. I was beginning to hate Kellin more and more as the days went on…

[Jaime’s P.O.V]

 

 I had just gotten off the phone with Mike, and I felt as if I could kick right through my wall right now. I knew Kellin wasn’t any good. He’s been trying to keep Vic away from Mike—his own brother! No doubt he’d be drilling lies about Tony and I into his head in no time, too. I couldn’t bear to imagine what would happen if Vic believed him…

 He’d never like me back…

 I sighed and threw a pillow across my room, causing it to thump against my door and slump to the floor. I can’t help but to think Kellin has something else planned to hurt Vic in some way or another. I know it sounds somewhat crazy, but it’s just one of those gut feelings, you know?

 I don’t know why he would want to hurt someone as perfect as Vic, though. Perhaps he was just jealous. I mean, just look at him. His beautiful brown eyes, his muscular arms and the way his hair curls—

 Wow, Jaime. Knock it off; you need to figure this out. Stop daydreaming about someone you’ll never have.

 Right. Never.

 Anyway, maybe I could talk to Kellin instead. As much as I hated the thought, it would be better for him to get mad at me instead of Mike, right? Kellin, Vic, Tony, Mike and I were planning to go for lunch sometime this week, so I suppose I could just pull him aside and ask him a few quick questions without causing a scene. However, knowing how Kellin has been acting, he’ll probably find some way to cause one.

 Despite the fact it was only twelve o’clock in the afternoon, I really only wanted to go to sleep right now. All of this Kellin nonsense was driving me crazy. And, on top of that, my demons were getting back to me. They kept screaming at me how much better Kellin was then me. I already knew he was a lot better looking and a lot skinnier than me, and I didn’t need to be reminded.

 I didn’t want to resort to my old habits of two years ago, so I decided it would be best if I were to just take a nap and wait for my thoughts to settle.

“Vic will never love you…”

“You’ll never amount to Kellin…”

“You’re worthless.”

Just sleep… They’ll go away soon, Jaime.

They never did.
