Kellin's POV

"Wake up sleepy head." I hear Vic chuckling in my ear. "Just because you don't have anything to do doesn't mean I don't."

I groan as I pull the pillow over my head.

"Come on Darling, please." Vic whines and I smile at his pleading voice.

"Fine, only because you asked nicely." I murmur sitting up and yawning.

I rub my temple as I feel a headache come on. I let out a little whimper of pain and Vic chuckles so I shoot him a glare.

"This is why you don't stay out late drinking." Vic says matter-of-factly.

"I had to celebrate." I giggle before kissing Vic's cheek.

Yesterday, had been a very big day. My band, Sleeping with Sirens, got signed to a major record label. We had put out our first album a few weeks ago which for some reason blew up like crazy. We had been doing local gigs like crazy and there were fans coming to our shows, some to more than one even though it was the same set. They were singing my lyrics back to me and it was the best feeling in the world. People want my autograph; it was so weird. The band got so big so quickly that I had to drop out of school. Vic wasn't happy about it at first but I explained to him that the band was my dream and that it made me happy. He still wasn't convinced until I brought him out on stage to play guitar for our song 'All My Heart'. The crowd went crazy and he finally realized how much this means to me. Now he comes out to every show and watches from backstage.

I tackle my boyfriend to the bed and smash my lips to his.

"Happy graduation day Baby." I murmur pulling away.

"Thanks." He smiles. "But we have a lot to do so get ready."

I chuckle and climb off of him. I go over to Vic's wardrobe to get clothes but my eyes land on a box. Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I pick it up and go back to Vic.

"I got you a present." I grin and he looks at me surprised, taking it from me.

He opens the box and a small smile falls onto his face as he pulls out the necklace that I had made for him. It's a silver heart engraved with the words 'You still have all of my heart'.

"Kells, its beautiful. You didn't have to get me this." He gushes.

"I did. You can wear it when you miss me and you can remember how much I love you." I explain a sad feeling entering my stomach.

"Why would I need to miss you? I'm basically with you every second of the day." He chuckles and I give him a forced smile.

"Yeah, you're right." I say with a fake laugh.

He puts it around his neck and I push the negative thoughts from my head.

"I love it. I love you. Thank you." He murmurs.

"I love you too." I whisper before kissing his cheek and going back over to the wardrobe to get ready for the day.

-------

"You excited?" Vic asks me as he drives.

"Nervous actually." I mumble shifting in my seat.

Right now we're on our way to pick Mom up. She's getting out of rehab today. I'm a little nervous.

"Nervous? Why?" Vic asks confused.

"What if she's mad at me? She's been locked up for three months because of me. And what if she's not any better? What if things just go back to normal?" I sigh.

Vic lets go of the steering wheel with one hand and links his fingers with mine.

"First of all, she's not going to be mad at you. You suggested that she go and she was all for it. She knew how much you were hurting. She needed to go and she knew that. And I promise you that she is better. They wouldn't have let her out if she wasn't. You've got nothing to be nervous about. I bet she's dying to see you." Vic explains with a small smile on his face.

I nod and let out a shaky breath as we put up into the parking lot of the rehab center. Vic parks right out the front and not a second later I watch Mom walk out of the door. I get out of the car and Mom's eyes light up when she sees me.

"Kellybear!" She squeals and I rush over to her, jumping into her open arms. "I missed you so much Honey."

"I missed you too Mom." I sigh contently.

"I heard about your band Kell. My son's a rock star." She gushes.

"I wouldn't say that." I laugh.

"Are you kidding me? You've been on the radio all week. You're a rock star." She says proudly.

"Whatever Mom. So how are you? How is everything?" I ask trying to avoid the question I really want to ask but somehow she gets what I'm trying to say.

"I'm better now Kell. I'm so sorry I put you through all of that. The stuff I said to you was unfair. Not a day goes by that don't I wish I could take it all back. I don't wish that I never had you; you're the best thing that's ever happened to me. It wasn't your fault that your father left. He doesn't deserve to be our lives anyway. We have each other and that's all we need. And Vic of course. But I'm going to start being a Mom now, okay?"

I smile and nod. We then go to the car which Vic is leaning up against. He pulls Mom into a hug and they have a small conversation before we get in the car and drive off.

"So my son's a rock star. What else is new?" Mom asks interested, with a grin on her face.

"Kellin dropped out of school." Vic blurts out before giving me an apologetic look.

I just roll my eyes.

"What? Kellin Quinn Bostwick, you dropped out of school!" Mom screeches.

"Yeah but I couldn't make music and go to school. It was too much." I explain and she sighs.

"Kell, you don't make rash decisions like that without me. What if the band doesn't work out?" She rambles.

"Mom, you've got to trust me on this. This is what I want to do with my life. This is my dream and nothing's going to stop me from reaching it." I say.

She sighs and nods.

"Alright, alright." She nods. "If this is what you want."

I smile at her through the rearview mirror before looking at Vic. He glances at me and smiles before taking my hand in his.

"I love you." He whispers.

"I love you too." I reply and Mom squeals making my ears ache.

"Aww you two are so cute." She gushes and I chuckle.

"Yeah. I know." Vic smirks and I shake my head.

He's such a duface but I love him.

-----

After the two-hour long service, I weave through the crowd of people, trying to find my boyfriend who had just graduated. I'm so proud of him. It's not easy getting through high school but he did it.

"Kell." I hear him call and I turn to the left to see him pushing past people until he's finally in front of me.

I throw my arms around him grinning.

"Congratulations Baby." I grin and he kisses my temple. "I'm so proud of you."

"Thank you. Now let's get out of here before we get trampled by people and insane parents." Vic chuckles and I nod taking his hand.

We then make our way through the crowd and out into an open space. Vic connects his lips to mine and I kiss back, wrapping my arms around his neck and tangling my fingers through his hair. Suddenly, Vic's phone starts ringing, interrupting our kiss. I pull away, letting out an annoyed huff and Vic chuckles pulling his phone out then answering it.

"Hello? Yes, this is him." He says into the phone. "Oh, okay. Yep."

His face falls and I give him a curious look.

"Yeah that's fine. Okay. Yep. Thank you. Bye." He frowns before hanging up.

"What's wrong?" I ask worriedly.

"Nothing, they just called to tell me that the trial for my father's case is next month." I nod and pull him into a hug. He shouldn't have to think about this stuff on his graduation day.

"You'll be there right?" He asks and I nod letting out a little hum. "Promise?"

"Promise." I smile.

------
