For Diamonds And Gold (kellic)

chapter 5

We arrived at Vic's place around 11am. The ride there was long and awkward, I didn't want to talk to anyone and nobody tried to talk to me. We'd left Kaylie at home by herself, I didn't want her to come, I didn't want her anywhere near Vic because the thought just sent my blood boiling and my heart dropping. When we finally arrived, I sat in the car for a long time just looking at the house and trying to compose myself. I wanted to be able to control my emotions for when I saw him but luckily for me he wasn't home.

"Are you coming honey?" my mom was holding my suitcase in her hand waiting outside for me after going to check if anyone was home. I nodded my head and opened the door to get out the car, it felt like I hadn't been here for ages.

"Vic gave me the keys, here" she handed me the spare keys to the house and I looked down at them before stuffing them into my pocket and going inside.

"I won't be staying long" she said looking down at her feet and standing in the doorway "I have to get going soon, they're expecting me at 4 and it's a long drive" she said.

I was sad that she was going, I may be upset with her right now but she was still my mom and I loved her. I moved towards her and wrapped my arms around her, she seemed surprised at first but then she hugged me back tightly.

"I love you" I told her and she told me she loved me back before giving me one last smile and closing the door behind her.

I was alone and I was starting to have second doubts about staying here. I walked into the living room and looked around, it was clean and looked new, Vic must have cleaned it. I walked through the living room and went into the kitchen, everything looked spotless and bright with the sun coming in from the windows. This place had definitely been cleaned, I walked back into the living room and sighed. I wanted to take my suitcase upstairs but I didn't want to go up there, sucking it up I grabbed my case and climbed the long stair case to the first floor.

I stopped at the top of the stairs and looked at the room where me and Vic shared before turning the other way to go to my old room the I had stayed by myself the first few days I was here. There was no way in heaven or hell I was ever going back into that room again. I placed my case by the door and looked around the room, it felt weird being in here, almost foreign. I spotted a vase by the window filled with pink and white cherry blossoms. A small smile graced my lips as I walked towards them, I loved cherry blossom flowers, they were my favourite by far. I picked up the pretty clear vase and smelt some of the flowers, their sweet fresh smell filling my insides happily. He'd gotten these for me hadn't he? The smile that was once on my lips dropped and I opened the window before dropping the vase to the ground. I hadn't realised I'd done it before it was too late, that was a little harsh I guess and I didn't actually want to get rid of the flowers but I couldn't help myself.

I sighed closed the window then opened the empty wardrobe and drawers and began unpacking my things, I would probably stay here for a few weeks or months before I figure out what I'm going to do. I was almost finished with hanging up the last few clothes when I heard the front door close. I froze where I was and listened for any signs of movement, my heart was beating in my chest and the sound was amplified by the stillness of the whole house.

I closed the wardrobe slowly and that's when I heard the sound of soft footsteps coming up the stairs, I held my breath as the sounds got nearer and nearer until the finally stopped outside my door. Vic was standing just a few feet away behind that door and I had to stop myself from flinging it open and wrapping my arms around him.

A knock came on the door and then it opened slowly to reveal Vic. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of him, muscles toned and perfectly tanned; hair softly resting on his shoulders; lips plump and slightly parted and eyes swimming in a chocolate sea as they stared at me, he was gorgeous but all I could feel was anger and betrayal towards him.

"Kellin" I heard him whisper and then he rushed towards me and pulled me into a tight hug. I wanted to push him away, trust me I did but I couldn't, I couldn't stop the feelings I still had for him so I just stood there like a potato and let him hug me.

"I'm so glad your okay" he whispered in my neck, his breath tickling my skin. "I missed you so much" he said and that's when I decided that our little hug session was over. He stood in front of me and I didn't know what to say, I wanted to hit him and kiss him at the same time.

"Kellin, there's something you should know" he said after a few moments of awkward silence, I stayed quiet and he sighed and carried on.

"I didn't mean to cheat one you" he said and I closed my eyes, he wants to talk about it, oh my god why didn't I think that he'd not want to?

"It was kaylie, she-"

"No!" I interrupted him, snapping my eyes open to glare at him.

"Don't try to blame everything on her, it takes two to fucking tango Vic!" I shouted at him and I noticed how he flinched at the way I said his name.

"No, Kellin it's not what it seems, she-"

"Get out" I interrupted him again, I couldn't even look at him, at least kaylie had the decency to admit what she's done but Vic is trying to blame her for what he was partly responsible for. How could he be so insensitive to my feelings and so irresponsible for not owning up to what he did? It hurt me to see that he was acting this way.

Vic looked hurt but he nodded his head and slowly turned to leave, I couldn't stand to be in the same room as him but I also just wanted him to be close to me as I still loved him. I fell back on my bed and looked up at the white ceiling, silent tears falling down my cheeks. Why did this have to happen to me?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After an hour or so of being by myself in my room I finally decided to go downstairs and get something to eat. It was just past 2pm now and I was starving from not eating anything all day. I got to the bottom of the stairs and stopped when Vic came around the corner, he was holding a silver tray with a glass of something yellow and a plate with a sand which on it. I looked at him and then at the tray in his hands.

"I made you something to eat" he said looking down at the food and then back at me. "I thought you'd be hungry" he said holding it out to me, I took the tray from his hands and gave him a little nod.

"Thanks" I said before walking past him to go and sit in the kitchen. He'd made me food, how sweet. Vic was right behind me as I sat down at the island counter and he stood opposite me. It was really awkward as I picked up the glass and drank it, neither if us were saying anything but I could tell Vic wanted to say something.

"What?" I said taking a bite out of the sandwich he'd made, he sighed and rested his head in his hands.

"You might not want to but we really need totalk about what happened" he mumbled

"There's nothing to talk about, you cheated on me with my sister full stop" I shrugged, I hated those words in my tongue. Just thinking about it made me want to throw up never mind saying it.

"No, but I didn't" he said desperately, I narrowed my eyes at him, what does he mean he didn't? I fucking caught him in act!

"Kellin she- where are you going?" Vic said but I wasn't going to stick around to hear what happened. It's pretty obvious what happened, he cheated and now he doesn't want to own up to it. I took my plate and drink and headed outside to sit by the pool and eat and of course Vic followed me.

"Go away!" I told him, he was really starting to annoy me now but he didn't leave, he sat down next to me instead.

"No, not until you hear what I have to say" he said and I rolled my eyes at him. "Yes, I did cheat on you Kellin, but it's not exactly what it seems"

"Well then tell me Vic, how does it seem? Because to me it seems more like you can't own up to what you've done" I frowned at him.

"She drugged me Kellin"
