If I Were You, I'd Put That Away.
Kids In Love
Vic's POV
“hello?” I hear my voice echo down the empty hallway.
I feel a warm breath against my neck and smile. I close my eyes and turn around, instantly wrapping my arms around his neck. I hear a deep chuckle escape his lips and quickly open my eyes.
“K-Kellin?” I ask, pushing myself away from him. I'm not sure if it's him or not. I mean, it looks like him, but his eyes are completely black and his teeth are sharpened to points
I don't wait for him to answer. I run down the hallway and frantically attempt to find a flight of stairs. I feel myself fall to the ground and I hear his loud footsteps behind me. I push myself up as fast as I can, but not fast enough. In a matter of seconds I am harshly pushed against the wall with his hand wrapped around my neck. His pitch black eyes stare right into me and he slowly opens his mouth, revealing his teeth again. He runs his free hand up my bare stomach and pushes down as hard as he can on the pit of my stomach. Even though he didn't hit me, that's exactly what it felt like. If it weren't for his hand around my neck, I would have doubled over. He runs his long tongue up my jaw and I cringe.
“S-stop. Please. STOP!” I scream, gasping for air.
Within an instant the pressure around my neck is gone and everything is white.

“Vic! Vic, baby it's just a dream. Wake up!” I feel my eyes flutter open as I hear Jaime yell into my ear. My breathing is hard, and tears are threatening to spill from my eyes. Jaime moves his hand up to my face a lightly brushes the hair that was stuck to my sweaty head. His fingers linger for a second before he rests his hand against my neck.
“Are you okay, baby?” I hear him question me, worry lacing his voice.
“I- uh. Y-yeah I'm f-fine. It was just a n-nightmare I guess.” I choke out as the tears begin to roll down my face. He quickly wipes them away and kisses my forehead.
“I love you, baby. I'll keep you safe no matter what.” He whispers against my forehead. I smile a little as he pulls away. I place my hand under his chin and pull him in for a kiss.
“I love you too, Jaime.” I say as he pulls his head back to look at me. I glance at the clock next to my bed and I bite my lip as I start to get off of the bed. “I'm going to go get ready for school, okay?” He quickly nods and I walk out of my room and into the shower.

“Victor Fuentes?” the sub in my 7th period teacher calls out for roll. I quickly raise my hand and get back to work on some lyrics I've been writing. I'm writing the song for Jaime, and since I've been in a writing mood all day, I've managed to get almost half of the song finished. I'm planning on singing it for him on our 6 month anniversary, which is fast approaching. I really feel like we will be together for a long time, and I really hope that we are. I love him with all of my heart, and I don't know where I would be without him.

The final bell rings and I begin to walk down the hall to meet Jaime, only to be stopped by a pair of arms wrapping around my waist. I turn around to see him standing there, smiling down at me.
“How was class, baby?” he asks before tilting my head up and kissing my lips. I feel the heat rush to my cheeks and look down, letting out a nervous laugh.
“It was fine... It would have been better with you, though” I mumble as I press my forehead against his chest. He laughs a little and grabs my hand in his.
“Everything is better with the one you love.” He says as we begin walking down the hall to the parking lot. I feel a smile escape my lips and I squeeze his hand.
“You seem to be in a pretty good mood today, huh?” I say, laughing. He smiles down at me and bites his bottom lip.
“You'll find out why soon enough.” Jaime states as he gets in the drivers side of the car, laughing. I get in and shoot him a confused look, only to have him laugh harder. “Oh come on, you really don't know?” I shake my head slightly and look down at my lap, thinking of what it could be. I know it's not our 6 month anniversary, and it's not any of my friend's birthdays, so I really just don't know.
We arrive at my house at about 3:30, and as soon as he parks in my driveway he tells me to go take a shower and get dressed in something casual. I roll my eyes and do as he says.

“Jaime, can you please tell me where we're going?” I ask as he drives down the highway. It's almost 5:30, and he has yet to give me any hints aside from the usual “You'll like it”. In all honesty, it's really pissing me off. He knows I don't like surprises, yet he does it anyways. I swear, he just loves torturing me.
“No, I can't tell you, Vic! We're almost there, though. Close your eyes and cover them with your hands.” He says smiling. I let out a groan and close my eyes. I hear him clear his throat, and I put my hands over my eyes.
I feel the car come to a halt and his door open and close. I let out a sigh and stay seated in the car. I hear my door open and he grabs one of the hands covering my eyes in his own.
“Keep your eyes closed, baby” I hear him whisper into my ear as he pulls me out of the car. I hear a bunch of voices mixed together in the distance, but I keep my eyes closed as tight as I can as he starts dragging me closer to the sound. We walk for a few minutes, the sounds of people talking getting louder and louder with each second. “Okay, you can open your eyes now, love.” he says as I quickly open my eyes. It takes a second for my eyes to adjust to the sudden light, and when they do I glance around. The area looks familiar, but I can't quite place where we are. I feel Jaime's eyes on me and I look up at him with a look of confusion covering my face. He smiles as he pulls two pieces of paper out of his pocket and hands them to me. I read over them, anxious to find out what we're doing, and look up at him with a huge smile spread across my face.
“You didn't! Y-You got us tickets to see Of Mice & Men?!” I shout before pulling him into a hug. He starts laughing as I grab his face and push my lips to his. He pulls away slightly and looks at me with a smile.
“I know it's not our six month yet, but they aren't playing in the area for a while after this show. I figured you would want to go since they are your favorite band.” He says as he looks down at his feet. I put my hand up to his face and push my lips to his again
“Jaime, I love it. I can't even explain how much this means to me. I love you more than I can put into words.” I say as I begin to pull away. He grabs my hand again and pulls us inside the venue.
“hello?” I hear my voice echo down the empty hallway.
I feel a warm breath against my neck and smile. I close my eyes and turn around, instantly wrapping my arms around his neck. I hear a deep chuckle escape his lips and quickly open my eyes.

You should make a sequel!
