Throwing Stones at Glass Houses

I headed back to Zack's house smiling along the way. It was even colder out now than before. I shivered a bit. I felt snowflakes begin to fall down and land on me. I stopped and looked up watching them fall down. I stuck out my tongue and caught a snowflake. I hurried the rest of the way to Zack's. I knocked on the door hard waiting for someone to answer. I saw a light turn on and someone come to the door. "Hey Stella," a half drunk Rian said opening the door. I laughed, "Rian, are you drunk?" "No," he said all happy and laughing. I pushed passed him closing and locking the front door behind me. "Stella," Kellin said running to me. He picked me up and spun me around. I smiled holding onto him tight. "Hello to you too Kellin," I said taking off my jacket. "We just started a movie," Jordan said from the den. "Come watch it with us," Cameron added. "Okay," I said hanging up my jacket on the coat rack. "What's that," Kellin whispered to me so only I would hear. "What's what," I said looking around. "That," he said pointing to my neck. He looked at it closely. He backed up looking at me. "Oh crap, Vic gave you a hickey," Kellin said turning me around. "A what," I said as he let my hair down. He fixed it so it looked normal and then looked at me again. "Whatever you do don't let Jack see that. He will go after Vic. You hear me," Kellin said looking at me. I shook my head still confused. Kellin touched my neck then grabbed my hand. He pulled me into the living room and pulled me on his lap. I closed my eyes and fell asleep in Kellin's arms.

I woke up in the morning pulled into Kellin's chest. I guess I fell asleep with him. Kellin shifted a bit and opened his eyes. I looked at him and couldn't help but smile. "Morning Stells," he said kissing my forehead. I stretched a bit. Kellin stood up. I stretched out my hands and Kellin pulled me up. "Stella Jade Barakat," Jack screamed from the other room. I looked at Kellin mortified. "It's okay. I'm here with you," Kellin said grabbing my hand. I held onto it tight walking into the kitchen. "Come here right now," Jack said standing there. Zack was sitting at the kitchen table just as confused as me. "Come here right now," Jack said again. I let go of Kellin's hand and walked up to Jack. He moved my hair and looked at me neck. I heard Kellin say shit under his breath. "What is this," he said poking a spot on my neck. "I don't know," I said pushing his hands away. "Stella, don't push me away from you. Tell me right now what is that," Jack said grabbing my wrists. "Kellin," I said turning to him with tears in my eyes. "Jack she really doesn't," Kellin said stepping forward. Jack pushed me into Kellin. Kellin caught me in his arms and I looked at Jack half scared to death. Kellin held on to my waist and looked at Jack. "Stella what did he do to you," Jack said his hands clenched in fists. "Nothing Jack," I said. He muttered some curses and walked out of the room. Kellin took me back into the den and sat me on the couch. "Kellin can you grab me my phone," I asked him drying my eyes. Kellin stood up and grabbed my phone from my jacket pocket. I unlocked my phone to see three new texts and a miss call, all from Vic. I opened the texts and read them. The first one said:
"I hope you had fun tonight. I know I did ;)"
The next one said:
"Goodnight, sleep tight."
And the last one said:
"Good morning. Text me when you're up mi amor."
I bit my lip and thought about it:
"Morning Vic."
He texted back about a minute later:
"How did you sleep Stells."
I answered back:
"Pretty good. I'd be careful if I was you. My brother wants to kill you."
I waited about five minutes until he answered back:
"Oh, I gave you a little love bite?"
I sat there still confused:
"Yeah."
He answer me back:
"I gotta go, maybe we can hang today if you'd like."
I couldn't help but smile:
"I'd like that."
He responded quickly this time:
"Okay, I'll talk to you later."
