"Good news Kellin" The doctor smiled "Your free to go home today, everything seems to be fine so we have no reason to keep you here any longer"

I stared up at him and smiled, go home? I’ve been in hospital for three days now and the doctors have been running all sorts of tests on me to check if I’m okay, I knew I was fine but I didn’t expect to go home so early.

"How are you feeling today?" he smiled and nodded my head.

”Better than yesterday” I muttered quietly, looking down at my fingers. I had spent most of yesterday crying and wallowing in self pity, hardly anybody had tried to talk to me because the simplest things would set me off.

"Good, I’ve called your mother and she said she’ll be here in an hour to get you"

"Thank you" I replied quietly and looked out the window, I’m hoping he’ll get the message and leave me alone and thankfully he did as I heard the door close quietly behind him.

I sighed and dropped my head back on my cool pillow, I’d cried a lot yesterday, so much that I didn’t think it possible for me to be able to cry ever again. I couldn’t even if I tried too anyway, it felt like my heart was numb. Like my whole body was just too numb for me to feel anything anymore. I had pushed back all of my feelings and decided that I didn’t need them, they hurt too much and I’d rather not have them.

I pulled the thin blankets over my head and closed my eyes as I thought of what Vic was doing right now. Does he miss me? Does he still love me? or is he with kaylie? The thought of her name made me want to throw up, my own sister! I though our relationship was special, I loved her and I still do but it’s obvious that she feels nothing for me. I let out a deep breath as I tried not to focus too much on it, it’s been a month Kellin, learn to move on I told myself but of course I couldn’t. It feels like it only happened yesterday which in my kind it did since I was in a coma.

Did Vic come and visit me? I wonder if he he stayed by my side while I lay here, whether he cried when he saw me or if he even cared at all.

“Kellin?” I heard a voice call my name, I slowly opened my eyes and blinked at how bright the room was. I guess I’d fallen asleep.

"Come on honey, get dressed and then we’ll talk" my mom said before kissing my forehead and leaving the room.

I looked at the door for a few seconds and then got up and slowly got dressed. I felt like a zombie, just moving and being active but I wasn’t feeling anything. After I finished getting dressed and packing away my things I went and opened the door to let my mom in who was waiting outside for me.

"Ready?" she asked and I nodded my head then turned to get suitcase but she stopped me.

“Kellin… erm, we need to talk about where you’ll be staying” she said nervously and I frowned

"What do you mean?" I asked her, I’m staying with her aren’t I? Right?

"Well, when you were in the hospital, aunt Megan gave birth" she said, Aunt Megan was moms sister and we hardly saw her because she lived so far away but I knew they were close.

"That’s great" I smiled "but what does that have to do with me?" I asked

"I’m going to see her tomorrow because the baby died at birth… I feel really bad for you leaving you but she’s been alone for two weeks now and she really needs me" she added quickly, she was close to tears and I hated to see her cry.

"It’s okay mom" I gave her a hug and rubbed her back soothingly. "Go to her I’ll be fine on my own" I told her and picked up my suitcase ready to leave but she stopped me again.

"No Kellin, I can’t leave you on your own, Dr.Worsnop says you need to rest and be watched over to make sure your okay” she said taking my case out of my hand and walking down the hospital hall, I frowned and followed after her.

"So what are you saying?" I was still confused, I’m fine, I don’t need anyone to watch me.

“Kailey is staying at home but I doubt you’d want to be there with her after what she did” she said and I looked down at the floor. “But Vic’s parents are more than happy to take you in while I’m away”

We exited the hospital and I closed my eyes at the breeze that met my face, it felt so refreshing after being inside for so long. The sun was just setting and it looked beautiful, so beautiful that I had to stop for a moment to take it all in.

“Kellin" my mom tugged on my arm and I followed her to the car.

"Isn’t there anywhere else I can stay?" I asked, I didn’t really want to stay with Vic’s parents. It would be so awkward and I can’t be dealing with that right now.

"Well…" she stopped at her car and turned to me "Vic …really wants you to go stay with him"

Mike frowned and closed my eyes, Vic wants me to stay with him? Does he really think I want to be around him?

"It’s your choice, you don’t have to stay with him if you don’t wan-"

"No, it’s okay, I-I’ll stay with … Vic" I said quietly. my mom looked at me for a moment before nodding her head and putting my case in the car. I slowly made my way to the other side, what am I doing? I know that if I avoid him for longer it will be harder for me to move on and it doesn’t exactly sound like the best idea to stay with parents.

"I’ll drop you off tomorrow if you want, you can stay with me and Kailey" she said as I got in the car, I nodded my head and smiled but it didn’t even reach my cheeks. I don’t plan on forgiving them, I’m just going to try and get through it, I mean it’s not Vic’s fault if he doesn’t love me anymore but that doesn’t make what he did okay.

"Mom?" I turned to look at my mom who was biting her lip, a sign that she was thinking hard bout something.

"Hmm?"

"Do you forgive Kailey?” I asked her

She glanced at me sideways before focusing on the road again, I waited for her to answer but she never said anything. A dead give away that she had.
