"I can't," I tell Cameron after being silent for a few minutes. "I can't forgive you. I can't erase that memory of you fucking Aaron from my mind, I can't erase hearing him moan your name. It will always be there, reminding me of what you did, how you broke me. If you truly loved me like you said then there's no way in hell you would have ever ended up in the shower fucking him."

"So, no Cameron. I can't forgive, I can't get back with you. I don't even want to be friends, I want you out of my life. Just remember that you did this to us," I start getting choked up and I can't stop the tears from falling. "To think I dreamt of raising children with you, I wanted to marry you. Now that's all gone, you ruined it. You have no one to blame but yourself. Please just leave me alone, I need to heal, I need to pick up the broken pieces of my heart. I need to move on and you're stopping that from happening by coming by everyday. If there's any love left in your heart for me, you'll leave me alone."

Cameron stares at me with pain in his eyes as he realizes that I'm serious and nothing he does or says can change my mind. The tears start to fall down his cheeks too, I don't feel any triumph from making him cry, all I feel is pain. My heart clenches at the fact that this is probably the last time I will ever see him. I almost want to change my mind but I know I can't.

"Goodbye Cameron. A part of me will always love you." I sat and then I close the door. I can hear sobbing from the other side of the door and my heart clenches again, but I remain strong in my decision. I know it's what is best for me in the long run. It might hurt now but it's necessary to heal.

I go back to the desktop and check my email, my heart starts pounding as I received an email back from the internship I just applied for. That was really fast, but they probably have a recruiter who is constantly looking through applications and contacting applicants that qualify.

I quickly read through the email and smile widely as I learn that they want to set up an interview as soon as I'm available. I reply that I'm available at anytime. The message from them doesn't take long to arrive, they scheduled me for an interview tomorrow. I'm nervous already, I need this job so badly.

I pass by the door and the sobbing as stopped so I figure that Cameron left. I look through the peephole anyway to find Cameron sitting down and leaning against the wall across from the door with his face in his hands. I'm tempted, I'm so tempted to go out there and comfort him but I don't.

I need to prepare for my interview tomorrow, I can't show up looking like a hobo. I shave my face and look critically at my appearance, my hair desperately needs s cut but I don't have money for it. I'm definitely not asking Matt for money for a haircut, he already does so much for me.

When Matt arrives home I guess Cameron is gone because he doesn't say anything about him to me. I don't plan on telling him about Cameron's early visit. We have dinner, I cooked for him since he's basically supporting me right now, it's the least I can do.

"I have an interview tomorrow for a paid internship, it's a small business but their pay is good and they'll work around my class schedule in the fall," I tell him excited and he grins and stands up, hugging me tightly.

"I'm so happy for you, Nash. I know you'll do a,aging and they'll love you." He tells me and I hug him back, I feel happy for the first time since Cameron broke my heart.

I clean up table and then iron my clothes for the next day. Matt and I have been sleeping in the same bed, it's strictly platonic Matt is like a brother to me. I need to fall asleep but I have nervous butterflies in my stomach. I'm anxious to get the interview done and over with. I finally fall asleep a little after midnight. When I wake up I'm almost at the edge of the bed and Matt is wrapped around me. This is new.
