Complications (Cashby & Kellic)

Chapter Six

Vic's POV

I pushed the couch back against the wall, Kellin and I had been rearranging the living room, well I was, Kellin was lying on the couch observing me.

"Baby, why are you moving everything around? It's fine!" He complained, "I thought we were going to go to the gym!"

I rolled my eyes, "I keep stubbing my damn toe on the corner of the couch, the only thing I want to bang on the couch is you." Kellin snorted and rolled off of the couch.

"I'm fucking done with you Vic."

I laughed, "Will you just get off of your fat ass and help me?" I pleaded, taking his hands and pulling him up.

"No, I'm irritated with you," Kellin stated, glaring at me as he sat back down on the couch.

I rolled my eyes, "Whatever, Kells I just asked Mr. Carter for more shifts!"

"Exactly Vic Fuentes! I told you to quit stressing about this, we're going to be fine. I would understand you worrying if it was more than just the two of us but it's not! It's just the two of us and we're doing pretty damn good together," Kellin said exasperated and grabbed my waist, pulling me onto his lap and kissed me sweetly. "Baby, quit stressing about this okay? We're happy with our jobs, we love what we're doing, we make just enough to have a little left to splurge."

"But we should save that splurging money for important things or if we come up short on something. We don't splurge and I am not stressing."

Kellin groaned and leaned his head on my shoulder, "Baby, you're stressing and you really need to stop. We're doing fine."

"But what if we stop doing just fine!"

"We won't, we're just taking care of us and we're doing just fine." He said quietly, rubbing my back slowly. "I don't get why you're so worried about this either."

"I just don't wanna get kicked out of here or something."

"We're not going to get kicked out of this apartment. We've been doing just fine."

"But you never know what is going to happen."

"Vic, sweetie why are you so scared about this?" He asked me softly.

I bit my lip and shook my head, "It's nothing."

"What is it?"

"I'm just being ridiculous."

"No what is it baby?"

"It's just something that I had to worry about when I was younger," I mumbled. "I can't help it."

"Which was?"

"Being poor."

"Well you don't have to worry about that anymore."

I shrugged, "I know but it's just something that I dunno, scares me. I didn't exactly grow up on the right side of the tracks when I was younger."

"So, that doesn't mean you should worry about whether we'll make rent or eat. We'll be fine. We make enough."

"It's not going to keep me from worrying babe," I stated wrapping my arms around his neck and gave him a kiss.

"I know." He said with a sigh.

"I love you."

"I love you too Vic," Kellin said, hugging me tight.

"I'll try to stop stressing so much."

"Thank you, now how about you and I go out to lunch and maybe go do something. If you want we can invite Alan even and see how he's doing with the baby."
