New Classic One-shot
Couple: Kacy
"Nothing was true, until I met you, no one else I see, the one that sees me for what I can be, in everything you do"
He knew he wasn't the smartest of the Lucas boys, or the best looking, but he always knew he would be the oldest, yet his brothers always told him he shouldn't be. They always told him he didn't make sense or he was too naïve, and he usually brushed it off, but today he couldn't. He couldn't take being bullied by his younger brothers anymore, he couldn't take the comments they were making anymore, he just… couldn't do it. He was done. That's how Kevin Lucas the oldest of the 4 Lucas boys ended up on a park bench with a suitcase and guitar case next to him, sitting in the pouring rain. He knew he shouldn't have left his brothers the way he did, he shouldn't have packed up a bag and told them he was leaving, but he did. Kevin didn't expect anyone to go looking for him, his parents were out of town with Frankie visiting a casting agency, leaving only Joe, and Nick at home fuming over the argument they just had. Because of those facts he was surprised when he heard a voice behind him say, "Thank goodness I found you", what was more surprising was that it was a female voice. Kevin eventually saw the girls blue tennis shoes out of his blurry eyes standing in front of him. "Can I join you?" she asked, only getting a nod from the curly haired guitarist signaling she was welcome to sit. There was silence for a couple of minutes while the two just sat in the rain thinking.
"I stopped by the firehouse earlier" She whispered, receiving no response she continued "Joe and Nick said you guys got into an argument"
Still with no response she started talking again "They said it wasn't pretty and that you left with a suitcase and guitar. They…they said they didn't know if or when you going to go back to the firehouse." Silence still followed her statements. "Kevin…Kevin please talk to me" more silence continued "Damn it Kevin! Talk to me! Tell me what's happening!" she screamed.
Finally looking up to meet her eyes, he noticed that she too was crying.
"Kevin, I'm trying so hard to be there for you, but if you won't tell me what's wrong I can't help fix it or you" she pleaded
"There is so much wrong Mace, I wouldn't know where to begin" He finally spoke.
"Well the first thing that is wrong is that you are soaking wet. How long have you been sitting out here kev?" the brown haired girl asked
"I…I don't really know" Kevin realized aloud.
"Why don't you come back to my place to change and dry off. If you need to stay the night, you can use our guest room okay" She told him whilst standing up, and holding her hand out for him to take.
"Thanks Macy" He said grabbing her hand, but realizing he needed it to carry one of his belongings. Noticing the dilemma Macy picked up his guitar in her free hand and started to pull him along to her car.
Noticing Macy's brown hair facing him instead of her chocolate brown eyes Kevin decided to tread lightly behind her, then come up and put his arms around her waist.
"I warmed up some water for hot chocolate, would you like some?" She asked smiling.
"Sure. Thanks" He replied, not letting go of her waist
"Kev…Kevin. If you want me to make you hot chocolate you have to let me go" she sighed with a smile on her face.
"But you're warm" he pleaded
"Well you shouldn't have been out in the rain, for who knows how long. No go sit in the living room, and wait for me to come out with the hot chocolates" She said sternly.
"Fine" Kevin said defeated, but before he left for the living room, he placed a kiss on her cheek.
As Kevin sat on her couch he realized how homey it felt with all of the family pictures and hand made blankets, it reminded him slightly of what his home used to feel like, before everyone started blaming him for doing things wrong because he was so 'naïve'. His mind continued to revert back to the fight he had with his brothers, how they said so many hurtful things about him, and others. He was so caught up in remembering the fight he didn't notice Macy come in with not only hot chocolate, but cookies as well.
"Kevin" she said simply. The small act whipped Kevin out of his horrific day 'dream' and into the warm reality he was currently in.
"Thanks Mace" He replied as she sat down next to him.
"So…want to tell me what happened?" Macy asked
"We got into a fight. And that's pretty much it" he replied before taking a sip of his Macy made hot chocolate.
"No, that's not it Kev. I've only seen you that way once before, and that was when you were telling me about how you felt secluded from your brothers because of a sign some so called fan made. I know it's serious Kevin, and I know you like to write your emotions in songs, that are amazing, but you never show anyone. Which I don't understand, I mean…"Macy babbled
"Mace" Kevin said
"Oh sorry, Kevin please just tell me what's wrong this once. You're my best friend and want…no need to help you" Macy pleaded
"I'm your best friend? What about Stella?" Kevin asked, partially avoiding telling her his 'issues'.
"Stella already has Joe, he is her best friend, and I'm just the friend that listens to her complain about Joe. You are my best friend Kevin, you actually listen to what I have to say, and I may not be your best friend, but you definitely are mine" Macy informed
"You're my best friend too Macy, and I guess I should tell you what happened, I'm just slightly embarrassed and hurt and confused and mad and so many different things that I just don't know what to do." Kevin exasperated.
"Why don't you just start from the beginning and tell me the whole story, okay" Macy asked, trying to sooth Kevin by rubbing his back.
"Okay, here is goes…"
Flashback:
Kevin was sitting in front of his bunks plucking chords and coming up with lyrics to a song he was writing. While looking for another guitar pick, Nick came up and took the music he was working on.
"So what's this you're working on Kev?" Nick asked
"A song" Kevin replied simply, still looking for another guitar pick
"You don't write songs Kev, you just wait for Nick to write one, and then play it" Joe said from his mini gym.
"Actually I write songs all the time Joe, I just don't ever show them to anyone" Kevin replied, taking his music out of Nicks hands and assuming his previous position.
"Probably because they are horrific, talking about otters with trumpets and bears in bikini's, am I right Kev" Joe asked, mocking his older brother's previous thoughts or comments.
"No, you aren't Joe. Now can we drop it please, I need to finish this as soon as possible" Kevin asked nicely.
"That song's for a girl isn't it?" Nick asked, speaking for the first time since picking up Kevin's music.
"Yes, what does it matter to you?" Kevin asked, getting slightly annoyed at his brothers for delaying his song writing.
"Who is it for?" Nick asked.
"A friend, now please drop it."
"I don't understand why you won't tell me who it is for Kevin, I'm not going to steal the song and your girl if you tell me, I just want to know who the poor soul is that caught your attention"
"What is that supposed to mean Nicholas?" Kevin asked aggravated
"It means that whoever caught your attention is going to have to deal with some serious problems when it comes to you" Nick replied coolly
"What problems do I have Nicholas?" Kevin asked as he sat his music and guitar in one of his cases.
"Lets see, your inability to act you age, your fascination with woodland creatures and musical instruments, your weird comments, your addiction to cookies…do I need to go on Kev. I don't understand how you got to be the oldest." Nick exclaimed
"Those are not problems with me, and if anything Macy likes those qualities about me because it makes me different, and fun, and exciting, because she doesn't know what is going to come out of my mouth. I don't understand why you constantly put me down Nick, I don't do that to you" Kevin said frustration evident in his tone.
"Wait, you like Macy? Crazy, number one fan, who likes to injure us Macy? The one who can't sing to save her life, and plays a bazillion sports? That is who you like?" Joe asked, then busted out laughing "She is a freak. You'll fit together well" he added on.
"STOP BEING SUCH JERKS! IT'S ONE THING FOR YOU TO INSULT ME, I'M YOUR BROTHER I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY, BUT MACY? SOMEONE WHO HAS JUST BEEN TRYING TO BE OUR FRIEND, AND SUPPORT US? YOU ARE GOING TO START BADMOUTHING HER? THAT IS FREAKING RIDICULOUS, AND JUVINILLE, AND I AM ASHAMED OF YOU BOTH." Kevin yelled, then started packing up a suitcase.
"You're ashamed of us Kevin? Have you seen yourself? We have to put up with your stupid comments and ridiculous ideas. You know what you and Macy do belong together" Nick told Kevin
"What are you doing Kevin?" Joe asked
"I'm packing" he responded stoutly
"What are you going to do Kevin, run away from your problems? Way to show us we are wrong by running away" Nick said sarcastically.
"I'm done. I'm leaving. You don't need you, heck you don't even want me, so goodbye" Kevin told them grabbing his guitar and suitcase, then leaving the firehouse
End Flashback
There was silence for a good five minutes as Kevin relived his misery, and Macy tried to comprehend what had happened.
"You got into a fight with your brothers over me?" she asked weakly.
"Not just you, but everything they've done to me, constantly bringing me down, not believing in what I can do. I just had enough" He replied while bringing Macy closer to him on the couch.
"Does that mean you still like-like me?" Macy asked shyly.
"More then you know Mace. You believe in what I can do, and what I want to do. I never really had that until you came into my life. I never really understood what everyone meant by they only say one person in a room full of people, until you came along. You've made me a better person Macy. And I would love it if you would be my girlfriend." Kevin said hopefully
"Of course I would love to be your girlfriend Kev" She said climbing onto his lap and pressing a soft kiss to his lips, causing both to smile. The new couple continued to talk about happier subjects until the doorbell was heard.
When Macy opened up the door she was shocked to see two swollen eyed guys with guilty looks on their faces.
"Hey Mace" Nick said
"Nick, Joe" She replied curtly
"Um, is Kevin here?" Joe asked
"Yeah, what do you want?" Kevin asked coming to the doorway "I'll take care of this Mace, why don't you go choose a movie to watch?" Kevin whispered into Macy's ear. She nodded in response, giving him a quick peck on the cheek before departing.
"What do you want?" Kevin repeated
"Our brother to come back" Nick said
"We're sorry Kevin" Joe told him
The eldest brother just nodded his head, then ushered his younger siblings in to talk about what happened earlier.
Sorry then ending just kind of stops at a random part. I felt like if i went into the aplogy it would be too long, and go away from the story I was wanting, so i left it open ended. Comments and advice are more then welcome, i don't know what flames are, but i heard they aren't good, so please don't leave those. thanks for reading!
