"What are you doing?" I asked leaning against the door frame that lead to outside. It was a nice day and Vic was outside sitting cross legged by the pool and writing something down in a book.

"Getting a few song ideas down" he replied without looking up "wanna hear some?" he asked

"Nah, I'm sure it's rubbish anyway" I smiled and turned to go back into the house. I heard Vic calling me a bitch from outside and I laughed, things have been a lot better since I found out what really happened. I wanted to call mom and Kaylie and confront them about it but Vic had begged me not to. Every time I went near the phone he'd ask me what I'm doing or who I'm calling, he's changed a bit. He's a bit clingy now than he was before, he told me it was because he didn't want to lose me again but it does get annoying sometimes.

The sound of the phone ringing snapped me out of my thoughts and I sighed and went quickly to answer it. We don't get many calls due to what happened so it was a bit strange that someone would be calling us.

"Hello?" I answered but there was no reply, strange. "Helloo?" I sang out

"I've been watching you Kellin" a deep gruff voice said from the other side of the line. I frowned, is this a prank?

"What?" I asked confused yet a little freaked out the same.

"You took everything from me, you ruined my life and I intend to get it back" the voice said, my heart raced in my chest, what is going on? If this is some sick joke then it's not funny.

"I-I don't know what your talking about" my voice shook slightly as I spoke.

"I'm going to ruin your life and take back what's mine, starting with that little slut you call your sister"

A chill ran down my spine as the ringing tone of the phone rang in my ear. I couldn't breath properly, placing the phone back on its holder and a hand over my chest I slid down against the wall and took a deep shaky breath. Fear was running through me as I closed my eyes and tried to think of other possibilities of who it could be but I couldn't. My mind just kept coming up empty and I knew that it had to be true, who else could it be other than him? He's out of prison, he's angrier than ever and he's coming after me.

"Kellin, listen to this" Vic came into hall and stopped when he saw me, I'm sure I looked like I'd seen a ghost or something.

"What's wrong? What happened?" he asked frantically kneeling down beside me. Should I tell him? I couldn't answer him anyway, I was way too terrified of that phone call and I didn't want Vic to worry.

I looked at him for a moment, he looked scared and concerned and underneath all of that I could see love, love for me. I didn't want him to worry, I don't want him to be constantly concerned about me.

"Got you! You idiot!" I laughed and pushed him away. Vic looked confused and I thought he wouldn't buy it for a second but luckily he did.

"That was not funny Kellin" he nudged me with his shoe and started walking away. I laugh a little before letting my face drop, what the hell am I going to do? I can't tell Vic, not when were making so much progress so quickly. To bring this up now I it would just ruin things right? Right, I'll wait till the right the moment, I mean it might have just been a prank or something.

"Go to sleep" Vic mumbled from beside me, I'd been lying here awake for the last hour and half now. I just can't seem to fall asleep know that that man was out there somewhere and possibly going after Kailey.

Vic's arm tightened around my waist and I kissed his forehead before turning my back on him to get more comfortable. He was right, I should really sleep but I couldn't, so many questions were going through my head right now. Like should I have called Kailey? And warned her? Or should I have rang the police and told them instead? What he tried to kill me? or Kailey or mom? or Vic?

I snapped my eyes shut as a wave of wave pain and fear ran through me, the thought of someone hurting Vic was too much for me bear. It physically hurt to to think of anybody hurting him especially him.

"What's the matter Kells?" Vic sighed sleepily

"Nothing" I replied "nothing, just go to bed, I'm tryna sleep" I whispered and after a few hours of worrying I eventually did fall asleep. At four in the morning.
