Victuri: Walls ✔️

Chapter 29

When I wake up Lucas' arms are still snaked around me and light is just starting to pour through the window.

"Mmm morning," I hear a grumble from beside me. And turn so I'm facing the older.

"What time do you have to be at school by?" I question.

"Like eight at the latest," he says whilst brushing the silver hair from my eyes then places a gentle kiss on my lips.

I pull away after a second and climb out of bed heading to the bathroom to get changed, calling behind me "You know it's already seven right?"

"What! Crap!" He says, scrambling out of bed and past me to get to the bathroom. But I race him and get there first slamming the door in his face. "Noooo! Victor, I'm gunna be late!"

"Well, you should have thought about that before you invited me to stay the night shouldn't you?" I say giggling to myself, before feeling a little guilty and unlocking the door to see a fuming Lucas standing on the other side.

He then rushes towards me, protecting my head with his hand before slamming me into the bathroom wall and kissing my neck. "Why do you have to be so hot?" 

At this comment, my cheeks turn bright pink and stand there frozen as he continues to paint a picture on my skin.

However, my mind trails back to the boy I left sobbing in the car park and I slowly push Lucas away, avoiding his eyes by staring into the floor.

"Are you ok?" He says, a look of worry spread across his face, and clouding his gorgeous emerald eyes.

"Yeah," I reply turning my lips up into an unconvincing grin, "we should probably get ready."

"Yeah, you're right as always," he replies kissing the tip of my nose then tuning, stripping and jumping into the shower. All the while I'm standing awkwardly at the side of the room, my face now painted crimson and trying my best not to look at him through the glass. Then his voice interrupts "You can join me if you like?"

Oh my god why is this guy making me so flustered?! I don't even know how I feel about him...only that he's not my Yuri. Well, Yuri isn't mine so I might as well make the most of what I do have.

Before I can think it through I hop in with him, wrap my arms around his waist and kiss the back of his neck. He then swivels, presses his hand to my face and I lose myself in the touch. "Wh-what happened?"

When I hear his voice I snap back to reality and feel his fingers trailing lines on my torso. I realise he's referring to the scars left by my mother but don't reply. I step out of the shower and wrap a towel around me. 

A few minutes later Lucas finds me on the edge of his bed crying, the towel swung lazily across my shoulders. "Did I do something wrong?" He asks, sadness radiating from his voice.

"No, it wasn't you," I reply sniffing and sitting up tall. It's Yuri, I miss Yuri!

"Victor, hey," he whispers wiping a tear from my cheek, "what can I do?"

"I-I'm a horrible person," I start, "I know you like me and want something real but I can't give you that."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm using you! I broke up with my boyfriend and I was using you as a rebound to take my mind off it." I half yell at him and bury my tear stained face back in my hands so I don't have to see yet another heart break.

"So what you're saying is that you don't like me...at all?" The sad tone comes from beside me. 

"No of course I like you," I sigh looking back up into his sad eyes, "otherwise I wouldn't be here. But that's why I can't fucking do this to you...I don't know how I feel..."

"Then how about we slow down a little, take a moment to breathe and figure things out. I'll be here when you do." I nod a little and he pulls me into an embrace.

A.N. Ok if someone reads this I need some help with the plot, of course I want Victor and Yuri to end together. But what should I do between Victor and Lucas? Help plz 🙏😊
