Wonderless (Kellic VS. Fuenciado)

Wonderless - Chapter 16

[Vic's P.O.V]

Spring break has ended.

  Today was the first day back to school and I could not wait to get it over with, and get the hell home. If there was one place I couldn't stand more than anything else, it was school. And the fact that everyone other than Kellin seemed to be mad at me didn't make anything any better. I hadn't seen or heard from Jaime since that day we had lunch with the guys, and Mike and Tony had seemed to be avoiding me as well.

  There was something telling me that  this had been the product of something Kellin had done. I didn't want to believe it, but I really had no other options. I figured since the others probably would be avoiding me for a while, I should ask Kellin about what really happened when he and Jaime had their "talk" at the restaurant.

  Mike had already left with Tony this morning, so I dressed and grabbed my things, leaving the house. I jumped in my car and made the dreadfully silent drive to school. Kellin had claimed he "wasn't feeling well enough" and stayed home. I couldn't care less right now, though. He was acting strange lately, and oddly possessive over me. Mike wouldn't even dare pass a glance to me walking from the kitchen to the living room.

  The day went by slow without anyone but myself to talk to. And, quite frankly, I wasn't too fond of my own company. I sat alone at lunch, only able to awkwardly glance at my two friends and brother, all of whom sat a few tables away from the one I had claimed.

  They didn't once lift their heads to face my direction.

  The day soon ended and I packed my things and drove home. It felt like I'd been there in that hell hole for days. There wasn't much to do, since today was the first day back. The teachers just lectured on and reenforced the same old rules we'd been hearing since freshman year.

  Mike had arrived home before me, but had already retreated to his room before I'd even had a chance to say hello. I decided now would be a decent time to talk to Kellin about the other day. Ascending up the stairs I headed to my room, only to find Kellin lounging around in his pajamas. I had at least expected him to be up and dressed by now.

  “Hey, cutie,” he called from the opposite side of the room. I wasn't in the mood for his clingy self right now, so I immediately sat myself at the end of the bed and gave him a serious look.

  “We need to talk.” Kellin didn't seem too pleased with my tone of voice and responded with a disappointed stare. Seeing as though he had nothing to say, I continued.

  "What the hell is going on lately? My brother won't talk to me, and Tony and Jaime act as if we'd never even met. And I can tell you said something to Jaime that day we went to lunch because ever time I try to even say hello, he bolts off in the other direction. Kellin, what did you say to him?”

“What does it matter to you? It's not you have feelings for him, right?” Kellin snapped.

“That's not the point. He's my friend, and the fact that you and I are dating doesn't give you the right to push my friends away.” Kellin seemed taken aback by this whole situation.
