I sat up stared at my parents in disbelief. What could possibly make them think I would leave San Diego? They honestly thought I would even consider leaving Vic? Vic is my only true source of happiness, I would never leave him.

"Uh, what?"

"Look, I know we haven't really been in your life, but think about it. We could start a whole new life together as a family. A fresh start, out of California." my mom smiled. I felt Vic tense up beside me.

"Guys.. you know, I would love to, but I haven't even finished school yet, and-"

"You can finish school when we move! A whole new school, away from that Aubrey girl."

"Mom, I'm sorry, but I'm staying. I'm not leaving Vic." I sighed. I felt weird telling them no.

"Vic can come with us!" my dad smiled. He tensed up again.

"Dad, he can't come with. He needs to say here and work on his music."

"Well, I'm sorry sweetie, but your dad and I are moving no matter what. I'm tired of living here. And if we leave, we're going to have to sell your house." my mom frowned.

"I'm not leaving." I repeated.

"Well then, be homeless!" she snapped, walking out of the room.

Well, that hurt. My dad opened his mouth to say something, but then he just shrugged and left the room behind my mom. I shook my head and buried my face in my hands, slowly rubbing my temples.

"Hey," Vic frowned. "You know she didn't mean that. I don't think she'd do that to you." he said, rubbing my back.

"I don't want to leave." I groaned.

Vic looked at the floor and began to stare off into space, obviously deep in thought. He sat there for a minute before turning his gaze back to me.

"Move in with me."

"What?" I said, my eyes going wide.

"Move in with me, come on. It'll be fun." he smiled.

"Vic.. I don't know, I don't want to be a-"

"Don't even finish that sentence. Carlee you aren't a burden, okay? Plus, you practically live at my house anyways. Come on." he said, rubbing my arms. I sighed.

"But you live with Mike.. and I'm pretty sure he's tired of me being around all time, and I'm sure he's tired of all of my freak outs. And the other night definitely didn't help me with that problem."

"Who gives a shit what Mike thinks? I want you there. Plus, he loves being around you." he smiled.

I stared down at my feet for awhile, thinking about his offer. It would be fun. It would be amazing. But then again, am I really ready to move in with him? My heart says yes, but my brain is screaming no. I'm so emotionally unstable, and being around Vic all the time could really ruin what we have.. I absolutely love Vic, and I love being around him, but I know he'll get tired of me eventually..

"Carlee, I'm not going to get tired of you. I LOVE YOU, okay? I love you. I'm in love with you, I love being around you, I love you even at your lowest points. If I couldn't handle that, don't you think I'd be gone by now? I love you, even if you are 'emotionally unstable.' Okay? Please."

My smile was back. What this boy does to me..

"Okay." I smiled.

"So you will?" he said, bouncing up and down like a child.

"Yes. I will." I laughed. "As long as you never do that again." I smirked.

"Maybe." he smirked. He leaned over on top of me, pushing my body down with his and gave me a long, gentle kiss.

I don't know what I'm getting myself into, but maybe things will be okay.

Maybe.
