The Bucket List (Kellic)

19. A Not So Happy Birthday

-A week after Prom-

I woke up to an empty bed and was really confused because I could've sworn Vic spent the night last night. I looked on my nightstand and checked my phone but there wasn't anything from him saying he left. Am I going crazy? I wouldn't doubt it. 

I was about to roll out of my bed when my door slowly crept open. 

"Oh good, you're awake." Vic's voice sounded through the room. I roll over to face the door to see him holding a tray of food and a small bag. What?

"Yeah," I say, yawing and rubbing the sleep from my eyes, "I just woke up." 

"Well," He says, placing the tray on my nightstand- which has two plates of eggs and bacon and two cups of coffee on it- then crawling beside me, "Good morning and Happy Birthday." He says, pecking my lips before handing me the bag then placing the tray between us. 

"It's my birthday?" I ask him in confusion. 

"Yep, April 24th." He states.

"Oh, shit. Well, thanks." I say, feeling embarrassed that I forgot my own birthday.

"You're welcome. Now, eat before you open that." He tells me, handing me a plate. I nod and start eating the food, which is really good, might I add.

"Thank you." I tell him after we finished eating. 

"You're welcome." He answers, leaning over and quickly pecking my lips. "Now, open your present." He says. 

I smile at him and take the paper out of the bag and pull out a small, black box. Confused, I look over at Vic and he gestures for me to continue. I slowly open the box to reveal a small, silver necklace.

"What-?" I ask, pulling it out of the box and dangling it in front of my face. There was a rectangular charm that says 'his only' and another one shaped as a heart with our initials.

"I know it's a little girly but," He starts, pulling the same thing from under his shirt. "I saw them while at the mall and thought they would be great." He finishes. 

I stare at the necklace for a few seconds before looking at Vic. 

"Thank you so much. These are so cute." I tell him honestly. 

"You're welcome. Want me to help you put it on?" He asks me and I nod. I hand him the necklace and turn so that he could clip it behind my neck. 

"Thank you." I say, turning around and hugging him close to my body and nuzzling my face into his neck.

"You're welcome." He says, kissing the top of my head.

I've come to notice that seen I gave Vic my virginity, he's been a lot more- I wouldn't say clingy but he's been with me almost everyday after school. Like, he even spent the night on Wednesday. Not that I'm complaining. I love it. It lets me know that he wasn't just using me. He actually loves me; not that I didn't know that part before.

I heard a knock at the door but I didn't bother moving from my position, knowing it was my mom.

"Good morning boys. Happy Birthday, Kellin." She says softly due to her just recently waking up. 

"Thank you, mom." I tell her, my voice muffled due to my face still being in Vic's neck.

"Okay, well, I'll be in the living room if you need anything." She says then closes my door.

"I still can't look at her without being embarrassed." Vic whispers causing me to giggle lightly.

See, my mom knows about what happened between Vic and I because the next morning, she came into my room to see Vic and I naked under my covers and our tuxedos sprawled over the floor.
