What a Catch, Kellin.

"Vic! That's all the way in California, you're kidding - please tell me you're kidding." Kellin was beyond exasperated. I told Mike, I fucking told him long distance relationships would be difficult, we're not even away from each other and it's already gone to this. He starred at me expectantly.

We'd just gotten back from San Diego a few weeks ago, he met my parents and they loved him; which was great. The rest went by in a kind of blur and now we're up to this - our first argument...first real argument, involving a real situation.

He was all proud when he heard that I got accepted into my first choice college, but that all went to shreds when he heard where it was. I don't blame him, I'm not really liking the idea of being so far away from him at all. We'd grown to be so dependent on each other, and for us to be miles away from each other just wouldn't feel right.

I just starred back at him, shaking my head slowly. I wasn't kidding, in a few days I'll be out of Michigan and back in California, "I'm sorry babe, I just - I'm sorry." I reached over to place a hand on his shoulder, but he just shrugged me off.

He looked so upset, "What am I supposed to do?" he asked in a hushed tone.

"You'll be out of high school in a few months, I can come and visit you whenever I get a chance. Come on Kellin, we don't have to make this seem as bad as it is." I tried reassuring him, the thing about us is that we practically crave physical contact from one another. It's mandatory, we need the reassurance that the other isn't gone forever, and who knows maybe on one of my trips I wont come back. I gave him a weary look.

He took a seat, "When did you find out you got accepted?" he asked, putting his head in his hands.

"I found out about a week after we got back from San Diego..." I answered quietly, I know I'd kept it from him for a while; but I was afraid to tell him. Afraid this would happen.

He stared up at me, giving me that 'you are unbelievable' look, I just starred back, waiting for him to say something. He didn't speak, at all. It was really starting to worry me, all I'd like to do right now is figure out what's going on in that pretty little head of his. A few minutes passed and we were still just starring at each other, "Say something, please?" I whispered.

He got up, I was expecting a hug; but no, "I-I have to go." he stammered out, going over for his stuff. I wasn't going to let him just leave, so I grabbed a hold of his arm, "Don't. Touch. Me." he warned me, through gritted teeth, I let go immediately.

"Kellin please. We can work this out." I assured him, we could. It'll be easy, we could talk on the phone and FaceTime's great and stuff like that, he wouldn't be around physically, but I'll still have the pleasure of knowing that he's mine.

He shook his head, "I'll talk to you later." he muttered, I didn't even bother going after him. Instead I just settled for dropping myself back onto my bed, landing comfortably.

Why is he making such a big deal out of this? It's not like I could just refuse going to my first choice college - I worked hard to get there! Honestly, I think he should be happy for me. Shouldn't this be the better for out futures...If there is a future with us.

Mike ran into the room a few seconds later, his smile faltering after seeing my demeanor, "How'd it go?" he asked, approaching me quietly.

"He just said he had to go." I murmured, shutting my eyes slightly.

This isn't fair, he can't just fucking do this.

"Did he break up with you?" Mike asked, his voice still as far as the first time; letting me know he hadn't moved or anything.

I shook my head, the word break up making me feel uneasy, "I really hope he doesn't though."

Mike stayed quiet for a while, "Maybe he's just going to think things out; don't worry about it."

"Thanks." I mumbled.

I just heard footsteps and the familiar shutting of my door before falling asleep. Sleep was really needed right now.
