It had been four days since the world discovered Kellin and Melissa Brown were in an actual relationship with each other, and by the world I mean the whole school.

For some reason, it'd been the talk of my class for two days in a row and I hated every single second of it. Hearing everyone talk about them certainly stung more than seeing them holding hands. And I was thankful I didn't have to see that again in the hallways, I don't know what I would do. I don't know what I would do if I saw them doing something more. Truly, I didn't get it, but I was making myself believe I didn't care.

I hadn't spoken to Kellin at all since those texts I sent him the other day during lunch, but that didn't stop him from trying to contact me. He still had the nerve to ask us to meet even when he had a girlfriend now. Just who does he think he is? I didn't want to deal with his indecisive ass at all, so I kept ignoring his texts and avoided running into him at school. I know, I have a great coping mechanism.

And that had worked until the following Friday, where I had to see him at soccer practice whether I wanted to or not. He was not going to make me miss my favorite part of the week.

The practice itself was great, I avoided looking his way and if he looked for me I just didn't notice at all. I focused all my annoyance into the game and ended up scoring the most goals out of the match. It was a good practice. Then when the matches were over coach sent us to the showers and we all obliged.

I was putting on my clothes after a much needed shower while Tom and Jaime talked about the match we had next week. That chat turned short though, when Adam called them out because he was leaving and they both were catching a ride with him. I waved them goodbye when they splintered towards the door and chuckled to myself. Most of the team was now gone too, I think just one of the guys was there in the opposite side of the room.

I took my shoes out of my locker and placed them on the floor, I put on my shirt and sat on the stool to put on my socks.

"Bye Vic," I heard someone say and I realized it was Andy.

"See you man," I nodded his way while putting on my shoes. So now I was alone and I truly believed I was until I was tying up my shoelaces and I heard him. Fuck.

"How come you're not singing this time?"

My stomach dropped at the sound of his voice. It felt like forever since I've heard him and I rolled my eyes, mostly at him, but also at myself for letting him make me feel this way.

I looked up and saw Kellin walking towards me on the stool. His hair was wet from the showers, a towel wrapped around his neck and he had put on those black pants that hugged his legs in such an insane way. I can't believe I was actually checking him out. I made myself look around instead to see if he was the only one here and he laughed.

"Relax, everyone left already. I checked." He said and I stood up grabbing my bag.

"Well, I'm leaving too," I said and started to walk to the entrance door, but he blocked my way.

"What do you want Kellin?" I huffed in annoyance, which only seemed to amuse him for some reason. I wanted to smack him.

"So, I guess you heard," he walked closer to me, but I took a step back. He chuckled, again. "Yeah, it's clear you heard."

"What, you didn't expect me to hear? It's literally what everyone's talking about," I turned my back to him and closed my locker. Did I really forget to do that? "Congrats, I guess."

I kept my back to him and when he didn't reply I turned around. He was sitting on the bench, looking at me.

"Look," he started, but I cut him off.
