"You know him?! How??" Cam yelled.
"We went to high-school together. One of best buddies" Her father was saying all of this so calmly that it was making her even more mad.
"So you just let him take me??"
"You're a reckless kid, you needed to be taught a lesson. Getting kidnapped is a great lesson right?'
"What the hell is wrong wi-" Cam was cut off by her mother.
"Language, Cameron!"
"Obviously I wouldn't let you actually get kidnapped, I'm not that stupid. But you had to learn and Shawn needed help with his acting. Plus I thought it was a go way for you to get over this 'gay' phase of yours and bond with Daniel" He smiled, stupidly.
"A few things. Are we just gonna go over the fact that mom just said 'language'? Also you made a whole scene about this! I was on the news in an Amber Alert! Multiple times! And by the way, it's not a phase and doing this, only made me hate Daniel more! Not only him but you, too! Why would you do that to me?!"
He shrugged and walked upstairs. Cams mother called for her sister in the backyard like nothing even happened. In less than a minute Cam was alone in the living room like she wasn't just kidnapped. She couldn't stand her family right now. Faking a kidnapping for some acting practice? What the hell?!
She sat down on the couch, trying to process what just happened. She gave up and turned on the TV. A few minutes later, Vivian showed up at her house.
"Oh my god, Cam!" She hugged her. "I'm so glad you're ok! I was so worried about you. Who took you?"
"Daniel and his dad"
"What?! Why?!"
"Because my dad is an asshole" Cam turned around and sat on the couch again.
"I'm confused" Vivian said, following her.
"My dad arranged the whole thing. Apparently I was never in danger. He's friends with Shawn, Daniels dad. And apparently he needs acting lessons so my dad got them to pretend to kidnap me"
"Wow. Thats fucked up. But didn't they get arrested?"
"I'm pretty sure he's gonna bail them out or something. I don't know and honestly I don't really care"
"There's something wrong with your dad"
"No shit. You should probably go though, in case cops show up again"
"Okay well i'm glad that you're ok. It's nice to see you again" Vivian smiled at her.
"I can't force myself to smile right now. Sorry"
"It's ok. I get it. See you later"
"Bye" She slumped into the couch more when the door shut. She was really over the day.
