Love's Never Lost 3 // With Cameron

...

Saturday 6th July 2019

Libby calls me.

Laura - Hey how are the kids?

Libby's crying.

Laura - What?

Libby - Cameron...

Laura - What happened?

Libby - He had a seizure last night and...

Laura - No...

Libby - I'm sorry hun.

I burst out crying. Sofia then runs to me hugging me. Dove takes the phone and talks to Libby.

Laura - He can't be gone. I spoke to him yesterday before he went to sleep.

Flashback

Cameron - I can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Laura - Me too. I love you.

Cameron - I love you more.

Laura - Give the kids a kiss for me.

He kisses their foreheads and tucks them in.

Cameron - Goodnight my little Raviolis

Laura - Fine, that's their nickname.

Cameron - Yes!

Laura - You did it.

Cameron - Only took over a year

Laura - I love you. See you tomorrow.

Cameron - I love you more.

Laura - No I love you more.

Cameron - Get some sleep love. I'll be here waiting for a big hug.

End of Flashback

Laura - We were going to get married.

Sofia - I know hun. I know.

Dove hangs up and hugs me.

Dove - I'll take you over to Libby and Victor's house.

We arrive at the house and I run inside. Libby, Victor and Maya are all sitting at the table.

Laura - Please tell me it was a joke...

Libby starts crying, I walk to her and hug her.

Victor - It was sudden and nothing we could do.

Laura - Where are the kids?

Maya takes me to them. They are taking a nap.

Laura - Oh my babies. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Maya - If it helps he played with them before calling you. He was playing hide and seek, pretending to cook.

She shows me the videos. I can't help but burst into tears.

I walk back to Libby and Victor.

Laura - I think I'm going to take the kids home.

Victor - Ok, call us if you need anything.

I put the kids in the car and we went home.

I text Booboo to come over. I don't want the girls over right now, they'll just cry. I know Booboo will try to make me smile.

Booboo - Hey. I brought ice-cream and chocolate. And for the kids I got them these chocolate pudding things.

I just hug him and cry.

Booboo - It's ok. I'm here now.

Laura - How am I gonna do this alone?

Booboo - You're not alone. You have all of us.

Laura - He proposed not long ago and we were going to start planning today. But then Libby told me this morning.

Booboo - It's ok. I'm here now.

Booboo has always had a crush on me. But he's been super supportive about Cameron and I.

Laura - I'm going to the studio. Can you watch the kids for me?

Booboo - Yeah. Sure.

I walk to the studio room and start writing.

I finish and see Booboo just being goofy with Ella and Vincent. I smile and join them.

Ella - Wher Dada?

Laura - Uhhh...

Booboo - He's out, but... the tickle monster is coming!

They scream and start running.

Laura - Thank you.

Booboo - Always. Cameron was my best friend. I'm not going to leave you alone with these two. That will drive you mental.

I smile and start making dinner.
