Lexi's POV


we were laying in my bed watching netflix when Cameron paused the show. he sat up and looked at me. i turned toward with a confused face.


cam- " so you first met me you hated me, we became friends, we got really close, got into a fight, you hated me now we're are friends but i don't feel like it's the same as before and i will do anything to be your best friend again. i miss you and what we had!" he pleaded

me- " yeah, me too. it's just felt awkward. it's just hard to re adjust because of what happened. i promise eventually it'll feel normal, but right now i can tell you it won't be immediate. "


he smiled and pulled me into his side. we fell asleep watching netflix.


2 Weeks Later


it's Sunday and Cameron and i are sitting in the sand. we just finished dinner, and he said he wanted to talk to me.


mom went back to work Friday and it seems to be helping her a little getting out of the house, but i still haven't gone to volleyball. i just can't, that was the sport my dad taught me how to play, and built the volleyball court in my backyard and passed the ball till dark with me. i just can't build up the courage to go back. and i have a feeling that's what he wants to talk to me about.


cam- " so i'm guessing you already know what i want to talk about..?" he smiled at me.

me- " volleyball?" i said looking at the ocean.

cam- "Lexi, you need to go back eventually. it's your life. that's a piece of you that you're missing right now!"

me-" i-i just can't " i said still not making eye contact.

i could feel him just staring at me.

cam- " why?"

i took a deep breathe.

me- " because that was the one thing my dad and i shared, and now he's not here so i have no one to share it with and it just doesn't feel right to play again. "

cam- " Lexi, i bet you anything that your dad would want you to keep playing volleyball no matter what. He's still with you and watching over you. He'll will always be with you during all your games, and while you're practicing out here or at the gym. he will always be apart of you, and you playing will only make you feel closer to him! i'm telling you you need to go to the gym tomorrow and at least try. !!"


i just barely nodded my head.


cam- " atta girl. now lets get ready for bed it'll be an early morning"


we got back to the house and i got into the shower, and he showered in the the upstairs bathroom. he basically lives here. we should all just move into my house!! lol


i got out of the bathroom and he was already in my bed on his phone.


Since our fight, Cameron has been very hesitant about coming too close or how we lay in bed, which means we haven't cuddled in forever and i miss it sooo much!


I miss the warmth, his touch, his smell, his...am i falling for him? No, that would be crazy- but not at the same time. what if- No Lexi you can't! Think about your ex and what Cam did you can't- I ignored myself. i really think i am.


i was getting tired and turned off netflix. Cameron got under the blankets and started turning the other way, but i grabbed his arms- his very muscular arm and turned him back. He was confused but did what i ask. i opened his arms and joined him on his side. He immediately wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer. he kissed my forehead

cam- " goodnight beautiful, love you" i smiled

me- " love you too!"
