Skinny Latte|Kellic

Chapter 10

VICS POV
The sound of constant beeping was starting to get on my nerves.
But then I guess it was good, it meant Kellin was still alive.
I rest my head against the wall, my sleepy eyes daring to close, but I wouldn't let them.
I snapped them back open and slapped the sides of my face harshly, forcing myself to stay awake.

A nurse walked into the hospital room and gave me a sympathetic smile,
"Sleep, you don't want to be like a zombie when he wakes up." She spoke softly.
I gave her a small smile and nodded, "Yeah, I guess you're right.." I whispered.

She patted my hand lightly and left the room, closing the door gently behind her.
I squeezed my eyes shut before I opened them wide.
I couldn't fall asleep, I have to be awake when Kellin woke up.
I've been here for hours and hours but there's still no news on what happened to Gerard.
I hope he's dead.
I hate him.
I fucking hate him.

I heard Kellin groan slightly making me sit forward in my seat, reaching forward and grabbing his hand, squeezing it gently.

"Kells?" I whispered.
He mumbled quietly as his eyes slowly flickered open.
He coughed slightly and fiddled with the oxygen tubes in his nose.
"Viccy?" He croaked.
I let out a sigh of relief and kissed his forehead, "I'm here." I reassured him.
A weak smile formed on his lips as he slowly tried to sit up.
"D-do you want me to get someone?" I stuttered.
He shook his head, "No, it's fine."
I nodded and smiled at him slightly, not letting go of his hand.
He looked down at his lap as tears formed in his eyes.
"Hey, what's wrong darling?" I asked, wiping a tear away with my thumb.
"Everything hurts." He sobbed.
I looked at him sadly, "You're medication will kick in eventually." I told him.
He nodded and ran a few fingers through his hair.

"Where's Gerard?" He asked, making my stomach drop.
"Y-you want to see him?" I questioned, nervously.
He shook his head quickly, "Of course not, I'm just curious." He mumbled.
I let out a long breath I didn't realise I was holding, "He's at the police station, there's no news on wether he's been arrested or not."
Kellins eyes started to water again, "What if they don't think he's guilty, what if he comes back for me.. what if he's hurts you?"
I shook my head, "Kells, why would he hurt me?" I asked.
He shrugged, "He knows I like someone else."
My cheeks heated up, "Y-you like me?"
A small blush appeared on his face, "Y-yeah, I guess so."
The corner of my lips turned upwards into a smile.
He returned the smile and fiddled with his fingers.

We sat in a peaceful silence before he suddenly frowned, "What happened?"
"What do you mean?"
"How did I get here? Like, why am I not still lying on the floor at Gerard's apartment?" He asked.
"The neighbours heard screaming and crashes and called the police." I murmured, trying to hide my sadness.
"Oh.." He whispered.
I stroked through his hair, "I won't let anyone hurt you ever again, I'll make sure to keep you safe."
He smiled, "You don't have to do that."
"I know I don't, but I want to." I whispered.

I sighed and decided to bring up a different topic, "The nurse came in earlier..." I started.
He nodded, telling me to carry on.
"They told me that it's obvious you have an eating disorder Kells." I told him.
He immediately shuffled uncomfortably, "I d-"
"Kell, please don't deny it. You practically admitted it the other day." I said.
He sighed loudly and let his head drop backwards onto the wall, "Okay, Okay!"
"They think you have bulimia.." I whispered.
"What?"
I shrugged, "They say there's a lot of evidence for it."
"Like what?" He questioned.
"Well first off, you're dangerously thin," I started, ignoring kellins over dramatic eyeroll, "And they say you have no enamel on the bottom of your teeth, and they've found sores in your throat and gums." I explained.
Kellin raised an eyebrow.
"Kells.." I whispered.
"I've only done it a few times, it's not a regular thing okay?" He told me.
I looked at him, frowning.
"Are they gunna put me on a feeding tube or send me to some stupid hospital?" He asked, his eyes watering with tears.
I shook my head, "No, I told them you were recovering because I knew that sending you away wouldn't help."
He smiled at me and wrapped his arms around me, "Thankyou Viccy.."
"But please, promise me you'll try and get better." I told him.
He looked away, avoiding eye contact.
"Kells, please?"
He looked at me, his eyes looked sad and desperate, like this conversation pained him.
I sat there in thought for a moment.
"Do you think I'm fat?" I blurted out.
"W-what?" Kellin stuttered, looking confused.
"Do you think I'm fat?" I repeated.
He shook his head and frowned, "Of course I don't, why would you say that?"
"I'm 170 lbs Kellin.." I told him.
He looked shocked, "Y-you are?"
I nodded, "And you're 91lbs."
He smiled slightly.
"Kellin, this isn't good!" I yelled, annoyed that he smiled at that.
He rolled his eyes, "But I'm still fatter than you.."
I groaned and covered my face in my hands, "Kell, if I'm 170 and you're 91, I think you're going to be the thinner one here." I told him.
He looked frustrated with himself, "It doesn't make sense.." he grumbled.
I shook my head slowly, "It does, and one day you'll see that, Okay?"
He looked unsure but nodded nonetheless.

"I'll make sure of that." I promised.
