KELLIN POV
I stood in the middle of the road for what seemed like hours even though it couldn't have been more than a couple minutes. A car came down the narrow lane, it's headlights jarring me out of my thoughts as I stepped back onto the sidewalk.
I have nowhere to go. The hope that Vic would change his mind and come back around disappeared after a little when it was pretty apparent that his mind was set. I let out a sigh and took a seat on the curb, not wanting to go back inside but not having the energy to walk home yet. If I just stayed at Vic's house none of this would have happened.

"Hey Kells, it's just me," Craig said as I walked into Vic's kitchen, getting away from the movie noise.
"Hey man what's up?" It's a little weird for him to be calling me all of a sudden seeing as we haven't talked since the party.
"I kinda need a friend right now. My mom and dad were fighting and my mom just walked out. I don't know man I just want someone to talk to I guess?" he questioned himself.
"It's totally fine. Where are you? I'm at Vic's house with the guys."
"I'm at my house so I could be there to pick you up in like 2 minutes if you're cool with that." I nodded even though he couldn't see me. I know how Craig gets when his parents have issues so of course I'm not going to let him go through this alone. The guys would understand.
"Hey guys, I've got to go," I spoke to the group in general, giving them a wave. I saw Vic giving me a confused look but I didn't meet his gaze. I know that if he knew that I was going to hang out with Craig he would be upset so why put him through that? I'm just going to talk; it's innocent.
I pulled my shoes on and ran out the door seeing Craig's car pull up. "Hey man," Craig sighed, turning the radio down.
"You okay?" He nodded as he pulled away from the curb.
"I'll explain at my house."
As soon as we got into his room Craig filled me in.
"So I don't know. It feels like it's my fault that they're fighting again because it's over the hospital bills and I mean they're mine but I of course have no money to pay for them," Craig rambled, a confused look on his face. "If I actually went through with killing myself and wasn't a pussy they wouldn't be fighting," he mumbled into his hands. I put my hand on his thigh to comfort him.
"Craig if you went through with it they would have even more bills to pay. Do you know how much a funeral costs? Thousands and thousands man." He looked up at me and nodded, giving me a weak smile.
"You're always right, you know that?" I smiled back at him happy that I at least comforted him a little. Without even thinking Craig leaned in, his lips pressed against mine and without even thinking I kissed back.
It took my brain a few seconds to catch up but it finally did when Craig went to deepen the kiss. I pulled back quickly, my hands lightly pushing on his chest.
"Oh shit I'm so sorry man I really didn't mean to it kinda just happened," Craig explained kind of frantically.
"No really it's cool it's just that I have Vic now." He nodded.
"I know," he mumbled, a hint of jealousy in his voice. "Let's just forget it man and listen to some music or something. I really am sorry."
"Sounds like a good idea, I'll be right back." I got up to head to the bathroom to recollect my thoughts and take a few deep breaths but on the way out of his room I bumped into his desk tearing the bottom of my shirt. "Shit," I mumbled, looking down at it.
