*says that she wants to make a one shot book*
*has begun writing three one shots ages ago and got a request from a friend but lost interest and didn't go on writing any of them*
Yea.... I think the one shot book will still take a bit longer until I publish it.
Anyways, I'm pretty proud of me that I finished that chapter today at 10pm instead of Saturday at 3am like usually since school started again.
Enjoy~
Kailey was fairly confused why I didn't have a problem with Vic being here anymore, and why we acted so couple-y again. So we explained it to her in the easiest way possible, saying that there was nothing to worry about.
She seemed to be happy about that because I knew for a fact that she really liked Vic.
"I still don't understand you guys", Kailey exclaimed while brushing her doll's hair, "First you don't like each other, then you become friends, then you become boyfriends, then you fight again and now you're boyfriends again. Where's the logic?"
"You know, feelings aren't that easy to understand, especially love is very difficult", Vic handed my sister a dress for her doll.
"Okay, then I won't ever fall in love, if it's that difficult", she shrugged, throwing the hairbrush aside and taking the dress from Vic's hands.
"It's not that simple", I helped Kailey to put the dress on the doll, "You can't just decide whether you'll ever fall in love with someone, neither who you'll fall in love with. I originally didn't plan on falling for Vic but now I'm glad I did."
My sister shrugged again while she examined the toy in her hand.
"She's not pretty enough for her date", she stated and I chuckled slightly, "She has to do something with her hair. But what?"
"Maybe she should braid it", Vic suggested and Kailey nodded excitedly before stopping and looking at Vic with wide eyes.
"I'm not good at braiding hair", she pouted, "Can you do it?"
Vic looked taken aback for a moment.
"I can try", he said, "I've never really done it, though since I've never played with dolls or had a sister or something."
I laughed and stood up.
"I'm gonna make dinner, have fun with getting the doll ready", I grinned at Vic who rolled his eyes at me but smiled back, nevertheless.
"Don't burn the kitchen down, honey", he said mockingly.
"For your information, I've never burnt anything down", I folded my arms defiantly.
"I'm just teasing you, babe", he chuckled, "I know that you're a good cook."
I snorted, smacking his arm but leaning down to kiss his cheek right after that and leaving the room.
I went downstairs into the kitchen, taking everything I needed and started cooking.
I just stood there, humming softly in the silence until a sudden pair of arms, snaking around my waist, startled me.
"Aww, did I startle little Kellin?", Vic laughed.
"Shut up, asshole, I'm taller than you", I countered and he immediately fell silent.
"Wow", he said after a while, "Just wow. That's all I have to say." Vic pulled his arms away from me and I turned around.
"Are you seriously pissed because of that?", I asked.
"No, I'm just fucking with you", he grinned, pecking my lips.
Vic helped me with making dinner, after telling me that Kailey was playing by herself now because she preferred to play alone for some reason.
When we were done, we told my sister to come downstairs to eat with us. After that, I went to put Kailey to bed while Vic had to feed Harper.
"Kelly?", Kailey asked as I covered her with her blanket and I hummed in response, signalling her that I was listening, "I like how you've been yourself again since you got together with Vic. That's one of the main reasons why I like him so much. He makes you happy. Those mean boys made you behave mean, too and I didn't like that. You should always be like you're with Vic. I like my brother, not that mean boy."
Hearing that shocked me. I thought I had been behaving normally at home but I apparently thought wrong.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't notice", I gave her a sad smile, "But I promise that I won't act like they want me to ever again. Because they even disrespected me, after I behaved like one of them for so long, and I'm not taking that."
"I never liked those boys", Kailey scrunched her face up.
"I know you didn't", I ruffled her hair and she giggled, "Let me give you some advice. Never change for anyone, whatever they say. Always be yourself and only trust people who like you for who you really are and who make you truly happy, okay? Promise me that you won't let anyone change you."
She nodded and leaned against me, wrapping her arms around me.
"I promise", she whispered.
I hugged her back and kissed the top of her head.
"I love you, little one", I smiled.
"Love you more", my sister sounded pretty sleepy, so I pulled away from her so that she could lay back down again.
"Good night, Kailey", I placed a small kiss on her forehead.
"Good night, Kelly", she mumbled, closing her eyes.
When I left my sister's room, I was surprised to hear Vic talk to my parents. It was only 7pm and they were already home?
I went downstairs to see them talk in the living room.
"What are you already doing here? Didn't you say you'll come back at eight pm?", I wanted to know.
"The meeting didn't take that long, so we were allowed to leave earlier", dad explained.
"Hey Kells, since your parents are already home, do you want to just go outside for a walk? Because I feel like doing that", Vic asked and I nodded.
"Sure, if my parents allow me to go", I looked at them with a questioning look.
"Of course you can, as long as you're back before ten pm", my mom said.
I reassured them I would be home in time, before leaving with Vic.
We were just walking around hand in hand, talking about random things while we walked to the small playground not far from my house because we wouldn't meet anyone we knew there, for sure.
The playground was deserted since most children were already sleeping at this time. We sat down on the bench on which usually the parents sat, to watch their kids while they were playing.
It was comfortably quiet until two figures approached the playground, talking and laughing loudly.
They stopped when they saw us, one of them coming closer slowly. The closer they came to us, the more features I could make out. They were definitely female, judging by their curves and absolutely not flat chest. She had long red hair and suddenly I recognized her.
"Danielle?", I raised my eyebrow.
"Kellin?", she said.
"Kellin?", the other person, also a girl, asked.
"Katelynne?", I was confused why they would walk around together.
"Katelynne?", Vic spoke up.
"Vic?", Katelynne exclaimed.
"Vic?!", Danielle seemed confused, too.
"What are you doing here together?", the four of us asked simultaneously. We all fell silent for a moment, before bursting out in laughter because this whole scene had been like in some bad movie.
"I thought you broke up?", Danielle said after we stopped laughing.
"We did but now we're back together", I answered, "You were actually right with what you've said about Vic. It wasn't him saying those things." Vic looked at me with his brow furrowed, so I told him what Danielle had said to me about him. He seemed at least as surprised as I had been. After that, Vic and I explained everything to them, also telling them about our "plan" to keep us a secret and they promised not to tell anyone.
"And what are you doing here together?", I wanted to know when we were finished with telling them everything, "I've never thought you'd be friends."
"Well, I told you that I was over Vic", Danielle smirked and my eyebrows shot up.
"Does that mean you two...?", Vic asked.
"Yeah, we coincidentally met at the mall something like two weeks ago and spent some time together from there on and after some time we realized that we both might be bi", Katelynne shrugged.
"That's great", I exclaimed, "I'm so happy for you."
"Who would have thought our exes would become a couple?" Vic grinned.
"We could say the same thing, you know?", Danielle shot back and we laughed again.
"It's a crazy world", I stated and the others nodded.
