Growing Up- The Collective fanfic

The First Kiss

[Jayden’s POV]

This was it, we got through to the LIVE shows and we were heading home back in Australia. I tried to skype Cammy again but she didn’t answer. It got me really worrying.

“Jayden! Jayden!” Will said, waving his hands in front of my face.

“Y-yeah?” he asked.

“Your phone is ringing,” he said, holding up my phone. Oh right. Awkward. I took it off him and saw that it was Ariana calling.

“Ariana?”

“Yes, it’s me dimwit. You don’t sound like you’re sick,” she accused. I walked outside of our hotel onto the balcony, seeing the magnificent view of London.

“W-what?”

“Cammy said you were sick so I wanted to make sure you were okay,” she said quickly.

“Oh tha-”

“But that wasn’t the main reason why I was calling. You have to get back here wherever you are as soon as possible! We have a huge crisis on our hands so you HAVE to come back,” she said.

“Why? W-what’s wrong?” I asked, starting to panic.

“Cammy came to school today with a red cheek and it looked like someone slapped her and she’s been very… well, distant lately. Did I mention she looked like she was crying? I’m so worried but every time I ask what’s wrong, she would just say it’s fine and to leave it,” she practically screeched. She was panicking and I was panicking and yeah, we’re panicking.

“Okay, stay calm Ariana. Where is she now?”

“She’s talking to Laura right now. We sort of forced her to come to Max Brenner with us just to cheer her up but you need to be here for her Jayden! You’re the only one who can comfort her and I know you like her. Don’t even bother trying to deny it like Cammy did. You know what she said to me the other day? She said she doesn’t deserve you and I told her that you two are perfect for each other and oo, here comes Cammy so I have to go but please come back,” she said all too fast before hanging up. I pretty much heard Max Brenner, Cammy said she wasn’t good enough for me, and that we’re perfect for each other.

I put my phone away slowly and confused.

“What’s up mate?” Will asked. He was standing there the whole time.

“I think there’s something wrong with Cammy. Will, I need to get back to Sydney now!”

“Woah- wha? Jayden our flight isn’t until one and it’s only seven in the morning,” Will replied.

“No, I have to get to Sydney earlier. Do you think I can ask Ronan if I could go back early?” I asked and started to pace around.

“Um, I don’t know. We’ll ask, come on bro,” Will said. Will was good at these things whereas I’m really quiet and keep to myself. We walked up to Ronan’s room and knocked on the door.

“Come in,” Ronan said in his Irish accent. When he saw us, he gestured for us to sit. “What can I do for you boys?”

“Well, I was wondering if I could have an earlier flight back to Sydney because there’s a problem, like a HUGE problem back at home and I really need to be there,” I explained.

“And how important is it for you to be there?” Ronan asked. I thought about it.

“I-it’s very important like I would leave X Factor just to be there right now,” I said, looking down. Ronan sighed.

“I guess I could but you need to take one of the boys with you,” Ronan replied. I jumped and hugged him.

“Thanks Ronan,” I said happily and ran out, wanting to pack. I hope Cammy’s alright.

[Cammy’s POV]

Ugh, I absolutely hate my so called stepfather which I will now refer to as big headed twit. I called my mum, well I tried to but only to be told to fuck off by Colin. GRRRR, just thinking about his name makes me want to vomit. I feel like tearing the house down but I know I can’t because well, I’m not really that kind of person.

I turned my phone on and realised that I had twenty missed calls and twelve text messages… majority of them from Jayden. I dialled him back and I heard him pick up.

“Jayden?”

“Cammy? Are you okay? I tried calling you heaps of times but you didn’t pick up and I was starting to get really worried about you and I’m still worried about you,” he said.

“… yeah, about that, my phone was off. Sorry,” I replied softly.

“Cammy, tell me, who hurt you?” he asked.

“What do you mean?” I lied. I knew what he meant but how did he know?

“You know exactly what I mean. Ariana called because she was worried about you and she told me that it looked like someone slapped you. So tell me Cammy, who did it?” Jayden asked, raising his voice. I flinched.

“N-no one. Jayden, I’m fine, really,” I replied.

“No, it’s not fine Cammy. Someone hurt you and I’m going to find out who it is whether you want me to or not,” he was starting to get annoyed.

“Why do you even care Jayden? I get hurt all the time, why is this any different?” I practically screamed. He was silent. I guessed I scared him.

“B-because, I- hold on for one second,” he said, I heard some movement in the background. What the hell? The doorbell rung and I made my way slowly to the door. Scared that Colin was going to stand there and hit me again. I opened it slowly, holding a baseball bat but only to see Jayden?

I dropped the bat and ran to him, crying my eyes out. Oh wow, I’m so emotional. He held me tightly and moved his hand up and down my back, comforting me.

“I’m sorry for shouting at you. I’m so sorry,” I sobbed.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry too,” Jayden whispered in my ear.

“But you didn’t do anything wrong. I did.”

“I did a lot of things wrong Cammy. I wasn’t there for you when you needed me and that’s what I regret the most,” I pulled back and gave him an ‘are you serious?’ face.

“You’re kidding, right? Jayden, I’m perfectly fine,” I said flatly.

“Sure you are. So tell me, who hit you?” Jayden asked sternly. I groaned and walked inside, Jayden following me.

“Can we not talk about this?” I asked, giving him my pleading look but was I going to get my way? No.

“We are going to talk about this because I want to know and I’m not leaving until you tell me,” he said, moving closer to me.

“Fine, if you really want to know, my stepdad slapped me because apparently I don’t love my mum!”

“WHAT THE FUCK? I’M GOING TO KILL HIM,” Jayden’s anger started to build as he started to walk away.

“YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHERE HE IS!” I stated the obvious.

“I CAN FIND HIM!” he yelled, I quickly grabbed his hand and turned him around and... and kissed him.
