*Kellin pov*

"is there anything else you've lied to me about?" Vic asks as he looks at his hands

"My parents havent been home in a while they are on a long vacation" I say and Vic looks over at me "have you lied about anything?" I add

"No" He says softly

"Come on Fuentes we all have some secrets"

theres a long pause of silence.

Vic sighs

"But Kellin, I never would've lied to you, from the first day you talked to me till the day I found out you lied, I've never lied to you..Now I'll see you Saturday night for your only chance at a date" Vic says as he gets up and walks away from me. Leaving me here in silence

*Vic pov*

I make my way home and I walk straight into my bathroom, I make sure the door is locked before turning on the light, I look at myself in the mirror and I take a deep breath before turining on the cold water and splashing it on my face, the cool water making the makeup come right off my face. I turn the water off and I take my shirt off, I look in the mirror and I see tons of purple fresh bruses on my side, I take in a sharp breath and as I let it out my side hurts even more. Well I might as well stop breathing so the pain will stop. I look down at my body and I feel a tear go down my face.

Well Vic this is your new life.

You've been lied to. Jesse is back, which means the abuse is back, but this is even worse. In the past Jesse would hurt me once a month meanwhile Jack would only make fun of me and rip my homework and throw my stuff away. Jesse never hurt me this bad but I guess somthing happened to him that makes him have more pain and he wants me to feel it.

And now well now the one person you wanted to talk to talked to you and now you are giving him a real chance even though you dont know if he actully wants one.

I start crying even harder and I find myself laying down topless on the cold tile floor.

*Kellin Pov*

I went to school this morning and Vic wouldn't look at me. I tried saying hi and he just looked up at me and noded slowly almost like he was in pain. I just went to my seat and sat down.

"Ignore Fuentes, hes not good enough for you" Oliver said and I told him to shut up which he did for the rest of the class. Jack didnt say anything during our classes together. I didn't see Vic in the hallway after my third class, not even a glimpse of his hair.

Lunch I looked over at VIc's table, he wasnt there, Jaime was sitting there alone, meanwhile Mike and Tony were talking. Oliver still wouldn't open his mouth and I think it was better that way. Justin did talk and break the silence, he asked where Jesse was and noone knew, Jack then said Jesse must've been getting work he missed, which made us all laugh. Then Justin said something about maybe Jesse is skipping school, but I for some reason don't buy it. During gym Vic sat out he hadn't changed for gym, I tried sitting next to him on the bleachers but he just said 'I wont talk to you until Saturday' and then I said 'but you're talking to me right now' and he didn't answer me, he sighed which I took as my que to stop being a smart ass and walk away. I actually did something in gym today, so I took a shower when I got home and noone has contacted me, Oliver hasnt, Jack never does, with me I have to call him or text him first, Justin hasnt been calling me lately and its Friday night and I'm still alone because Vic said the date will be on Saturday. I guess I cant really argue with him on that to change his mind.

---- *Saturday*---

I woke up at 12, I couldnt sleep until 1 in the morning, I wasnt even doing anything, wasnt wasting my time watching tv. I texted Vic as soon as the clock ticked 12AM and I told him I'd pick him up at 6. I spent my night twisting and turning. But now its 4PM, I've done nothing.

I pick myself off the couch and I walk my way to my bedroom and I pick out a pair of nice dress pants a grey cardigan and a black shirt. I change into them and I make my way down the stairs and I put my black toms on.

I make my way to my car.

*Vic pov*
I hear a knock at the door and I go up to it and open it, after my break down on thursday night I woke up in the bathroom, Mike knocking on the door because he had to 'take a piss'. He didnt even realize I was sleeping in there all night. At school I got beaten up by Jesse as soon as I steped onto school grounds he hit me which wasnt that bad, what was bad was after my third class when he took me into a closet and he kneed me on my side which made me limp for an hour. It pained me to walk and I didnt feel like talking to anyone.Kellin tried talking to me which I didnt want to take.

Kellin smiles at me as I walk out of my house.

"so our first real date" Kellin says as he opens my car door

"dont push it" I say with a slight smile as I get into his car

--

The car ride was silent but when we got to the restaurant Kellin puts his hand out and I slowly take it. We walk inside.

"Kellin!" The blonde haired girl says as she holds two menus "for once you arent alone" she adds happily as she looks over at me.

"Mary, this is Vic, Vic this is Mary" Kellin says introducing us and we exchange hellos before she walks us over to our table and takes our drink orders.

"wow Kellin, you go fancy" I say as I look around the slightly dark room, the romantic feeling in the air.

"I can, but in realty, the best thing in this resturant for me is cheeseburgers"

"So we are going to eat cheeseburgers in a fancy restaurant, Quinn you are crazy" I say with a real smile.

"do you not know me as much as you thought"

"I guess not, but thats obvious" I say softly

Mary comes back with our drinks and Kellin orders for us.

"whats next, food fights at a wedding?" I ask jokingly and Kellin laughs

"if thats what you want to do" Kellin says with a smile

"lets plan a second date and find a wedding to crash" I joke

"I'm all for it" Kellin says jokingly "so like any dating website get together, I guess we should get to know each other.... Hi I'm Kellin Quinn, I'm a high school student, I have really good music taste, I have some money, I must admit. My parents can forget about me but thats okay" Kellin adds

"Hi I'm Victor Fuentes, but you can call me Vic, I also go to high school, I have okay music taste, can play guitar, and I can be the opposite of you when it comes to family and wealth, and I've wasted my life having a crush on some guy but thats okay"

*Kellin pov*

"So this guy do you still think hes a dick?" I ask

"hes a romantic one"

"Thats good right?" I ask and he smiles at me

"It is a good thing"

---

after we eat and stop laughing over some joke Mary made. We start talking about Green day and how he can help me with studying. Things are going really well.

I look at Vic and I notce a weird color on his skin from under the light, I reach my hand over the table and lightly touch his face which makes him tense up. He tries moving my hand away but its too late, I rub my thumb against his cheek which reveals a dark purple tint on his face.

"Vic who did this to you?" I ask as I move my hand away

"no one"

"Bullshit, do you really want me to believe you did this to yourself" I say trying not to talk too loudly "Vic you dont have to believe me but I really do care about you, who did this to you?" I ask

"I did it to myself, I was playing soccer with Mike and I hurt myself, its pretty stupid" Vic says dissmissing the subject. But I'm going to find out the truth. I dont think this happened over soccer, in gym it seems like Vic is too good to get hurt playing the sport, he would be too fast and no one is able to trip him.

--

When I drop Vic off at his house and we say our goodbyes and he walks inside, I wait in my car. I wait untill all the lights are off and I get out of my car, closing the door behind me. I walk around the house until I get to Vic's window. I look inside but its empty. Vic hasnt left the house, I would've known. I try pulling the window up but its locked. I run back to the front and with my first try I open the door, I close it behind me and I hear nothing. No movement, No sounds. Its a small house those things wouldnt be hard to miss. I walk down the halway and I put my ear to a random door. I hear snores, I open it and peak inside. Its only Mike. I close the door and I walk down the hallway and soft sounds of crying catches my attention, I follow the sounds and I try turning the door knob but it wont budge.

"Vic?" I ask and the crying stops "Vic open this door" I add and nothing happens, no footsteps no nothing. "Vic open this door" I say louder, I pound on the door "let me in" I plead but theres still no movement. Fuck it Vic. I back away from the door and I slam my shoulder into the door making it go wide open. I put my hand on the wall and I flick the light switch on and the light comes on. I look around and I move the curtain of the shower to find Vic sitting it in, only in boxers crying.

"Vic what is going on?" I ask as I walk closer. I look at his arm and I realize that there's a bruse on his left shoulder blade, one on his right side, A cut on his right leg. A cut under his right eye and like I saw before a bruise under his eye.

"Who did this?" I ask

"I cant say" Vic says softly and he tries covering his body with his two arms.

"I'm not leaving you alone until you tell me who did this" I state and I sit on the floor of the shower next to the curled up Vic. I gentaly put my arms around him trying not to hurt him, and I kiss his forehead softly. He puts his head into my chest and starts crying.

I rub my hand against his bare back. Making him shiver slightly.

"Talk about an eventful first date" I say softly "so can you tell me who did this?" I ask "I really do care Vic, I want to help you and make sure you are safe" I add

"H-h-he'll hurt me. I'll d-die" Vic stutters

"I'll make sure he doesnt touch you again, please tell me his name" I beg as I hold Vic's cold body in my arms he wont stop shaking. "Please" I beg again

"Its..its Jesse"
