"My Only Regret Right Now Is Even Coming Here!"
--------
I Tried To Run Past Kameron, But As Soon As I Got To My Car Door He Grabbed My Arm.

"Please Bonnie," He Begged, "Let Me Explain Everything."

"Why?" I Questioned, "So You Can Fake Another Death?"

He Sighed Loudly, "Bonnie Damn I Had A Legitimate Reason. If You Don't Let Me Explain Myself You Gonna Regret It."

I Opened My Car Door, Getting Inside. "My Only Regret Right Now Is Even Coming Here!"

"Bonnie..." Kameron Spoke Really Agitated, "Get The Fuck Out Of The Car And Listen To What I Gotta Say."

His Tone Scared Me, But Something About It Told Me He Wasn't About To Let Me Leave.

I Got Back Out My Car, Then Walked With Him Before Taking A Seat On The Porch Steps.

"I Didn't Wanna Leave You Behind Like I Did, But I Had No Choice. When You Turned 16, I Started Dealing Drugs, And Soon I Was Rising To The Top. I Went To This Deal, And Turns Out It They Was Working With The Feds. I Managed To Get Out, But They Was Looking For Me So I Had To Do Something, So I Faked A Death. Told My Parents To Tell Yours I Was In A Accident."

All Of That Had To Process Through My Mind Before I Finally Spoke.

"You Could Have Told Me That Kameron. You Could Have Came And Told Me You Weren't Really Dead. I Wouldn't Have Said A Thing. I Was Your Bestfriend! But Instead You Lead Me To Believe You Were Dead."

He Looked At Me With Apologetic Eyes, "You Right Bonnie And Im Sorry, But I Can't Change It Now. You Don't Know How Much I Missed You Girl."

I Watched As He Stood Up And Put His Hand Out For Me To Grab, "I Need A Pleasant Greeting. It's My Damn Birthday."

I Smiled, Grabbing His Hand As He Pulled Me Up Before We Embraced Each Other In A Long Hug.

He Smelled So Good! All The Memories From Years Ago Came Flowing Back To My Mind.

When We Stopped Hugging We Kinda Just Starred At Each Other For A While. Kinda Just Taking Everything In.

"You Then Got So Much Damn Thicker," Kameron Smirked, Spinning Me Around. "Especially In This Lil Outfit."

"Yeah. I Got It Made For Your Birthday Of Course. We Gotta Catch Up." I Told Him.

I Can't Believe It, My Supposedly Dead Bestfriend Was Actually Alive And Standing Infront Of Me.

Kameron Smiled Down At Me, As If I Was Just Perfect For Him. "They Have Our Favorite Restaurant Here, We Could Go Eat There And Catch Up."

I Looked Down At My Fingers Shyly, "Sounds Great."

Kameron Sat In The Bed With Me On His Phone As My Head Laid Across His Chest.

These Were The Greatest Moments We Had, The Ones Where We Were Alone.

I Heard His Phone Vibrate And Looked Up At Him, "It's Late, Who Could Possibly Be Texting You."

"Nosey People," He Scoffed Playfully, Kissing My Forehead, Which Sent Butterflies All Through My Body.

I Looked Back At The TV Without Replying To His Remark. I Saw Him Hold His Phone In Front Of My Face.

"Say Hey For The Gram." Kameron Said, Recording Us. "Y'all This Girl Right Here Mane."

He Kissed Me On The Cheek As The Video Ended, "You Actually About To Post That?"

He Nodded Typing A Caption, Me And Bonnie Every Night, "Yeah, Why Wouldn't I?"

I Shrugged, "I Don't Know Because We Both Look Bad."

He Laughed, "No, I Look Good As Hell, You On The Other Hand."

My Mouth Flew Open As I Slapped His Chest. "Not Funny."

He Rubbed His Chest As It Turned Red, "Ouch Girl, Sorry Dang."

I Sat In Kamerons Car As We Headed To Our Favorite Restaurant.

"You Still As Beautiful As You Was When We Were A Little Younger." Kameron Said As We Stopped At A Red Light.

I Blushed A Little, "Thanks. And Your Still As Handsome."

He Popped His Imaginary Collar, "Girl I Know. So Why Were You At My Parents House, And How Did You Find It?"

"Well.." I Spoke, "I Wanted To Sit And Talk With Them Like Adults So They Could Tell Me Where Your Grave Was So I Could Give You The Flowers I Threw At Your Face."

I Felt A Little Bad About Throwing The Flowers In His Face But He Did Deserve It A Little.

"How'd You Know Where They Moved To?" He Questioned, Not Even Glancing At Me.

"I Researched Some Things And I Found Their Address." I Told Him, Just As We Pulled Into The Parking Lot.

He Didn't Say Anything Back As He Cut His Engine And Got Out The Car, Running Around To My Side To Open The Door.

"Thank You Gentlemen." I Said, Stepping Out Of The Car Before He Slammed The Door Shut.

The Inside Of This Tokyo Looked Way Different From The Inside Of The Others.

Kameron And I Took A Seat At A Grill Near The Back By Ourselves And Waited Patiently.

"I See You Rocking This High Jewelry And Driving That Nice Ass Car, I Imagine You In College By Now." Kameron Spoke, Breaking The Silence.

That's Where I Was Supposed To Be By Now, But I Had To Push All That Dream Shit To The Side And Handle Business First.

I Shook My Head, "No, Not Even Close To College Right Now."

He Could Tell I Didn't Wanna Talk About That Subject Anymore So He Changed It.

"How's Your Parents? I Know Dana Still Looking As Good As She Looked When We Were Kids." He Said Laughing.

It Was Nice That He Thought My Parents Were Still Together But Sadly, They Weren't.

"My Parents Divorced About A Month After You Disappeared." I Told Kameron, Watching His Face Expression. "And A Year Ago My Mom Was Diagnosed With Cancer."

He Grabbed My Hand From Under The Table, "I'm Sorry To Hear That."

"Everything Happens For A Reason Right." I Said, Trying To Convince Myself.

Yeah, That's Right. Everything Happens For A Reason.
