After freshening up in the school showers, I put my Nike sneakers on and zip up my NorthFace, hoisting my gym bag over my shoulder. Some girls high five me on my way out and I smile at them, happy to oblige.

Happy.

You belong here.

A little smile forms on my lips and I shake my head a bit, exiting the locker rooms. It's already six o'clock, and I have my first class tomorrow. I'm excited, but nervous to be in such a different environment that I've been in.

I take my phone from my pocket and begin to walk, eyes gazed on the alarm app. I set one for 7:00 am, since my first class is at 8:30.

My shoulder collides harshly with someone else's and my phone flies out of my hands, across the floor. My bum hits the ground and I groan in annoyance, my eyes gazing up to the asshole himself.

"Can you not make those sounds... you know what those do to me." He smirks, holding out a hand.

"I'm good, thanks." I ignore his snide remark, not in the mood for any of his banter. I stand up on my own, dusting off my black leggings and reach down for my phone, a sigh of relief leaving my lips at the sign of no scratches.

"Just trying to help. I was just about to head out. Wanna walk together?" He offers but I roll my eyes.

"With you? No thanks." I huff and grab my gym bag again, walking away from him.

"Can I ask you something? Please don't walk away from me." His tone is a bit raspier and he sounds defeated. I turn on my heel, and he drops his bag onto the shiny floor.

"Ask away." I sickly smile.

"I've been trying so hard, you don't even get it Cam. I came after you, yes I admit it. But I let you go once and I'm not going to do it again. I may look like the stupidest bloke going after a girl who hates my guts and will never like me, but that doesn't change any of the love that I feel for you. When we slept together last night? I tried to stop it. I tried so hard but you wrapped me around your finger again. I tried to take you home, I-I didn't want to take advantage of you." He speaks with exasperation, and he steps closer to me with every sentence. There are tears building up in his eyes and suddenly, I feel like the worst person in the world.

He tried.

You took advantage of him.

I flinch at the voice in the back of my head, and I'm cringing at its return. My fingers grip my hair a bit, and he continues to talk.

And I feel like shit.

"I tried to get the point across that you can pick Luke or I. Do-Do you understand how hard it is to let the one you love the most in the world, kiss another guy? Love another guy, be with another guy, and not be able to do anything about it?" His voice is continuing to crack and my knees are starting to feel weak again. The guilt is beginning to build up in my chest and I feel like vomiting.

"Lou, it's not like that-"

"I don't think you realize the hold you have on my life. You are everything to me Cam, and once you take that away, I'm empty. I can't be empty again. I pushed you away for so long by hurting you and calling you all those rude names, and you took it like a champ. But you were afraid, you were afraid of me. And I don't know how many times I can say I'm sorry, before you fucking understand it. When will you stop holding such a huge grudge over me?" He is angry now and speaking quickly and I'm the one with tears in my eyes.
