Seeking Him

Chapter Five

Gideon POV

Camille didn't stay long, but she sure did brighten my mood. This party really wasn't my thing. I spent most of the time talking to my cousin. Then Camille came. I relished my time with her. The sweet kisses we shared would carry me through the next day.

I didn't want to mess that up by delving deeper. She always seems kinda skittish, and I didn't want to send her running. I felt I could wait a long time for this one. Something about her just drew me in.

When I went back to the party, Gabriel was talking to someone I didn't know. She was pretty, if you like that sort of woman, she was a tall blonde with voluptuous curves. Gabe shocked me by kissing the woman. I went to join them in the kitchen but who wants to see that.

I made a quick left and went to the bar. I asked the bartender for an old fashioned. It wasn't my drink of choice, just what came out of my mouth. It tasted pretty good so I wasn't complaining.

My friend Chris came over to chat. "Who was that girl you were talking to?"

"Nancy. We met at school."

"What's her situation?" He asks.

"She's been seeing me," I say.

"What about that brunette you went outside with?" He asks.

"That's Nancy. The other girl was my cousin and also off limits," I say.

"Come on. You gotta let me press my luck with someone," he says.

"There's a firecracker in the kitchen," I say.

Alright. Thanks man," he says before heading to the kitchen.

"We need to get you drunk," says Fiona, my ex that I still have classes with. "Let's get some shots."

The next thing I know I'm waking up in bed with a naked Fiona lying across me. This is not good. I noticed that my shirt is off but my pants and boxers are still on. I move her off my chest and she wakes up

"Are we going to do it now," she says sleepily.

"No," I say a little harsher than a mean to.

"You're such a tease," she says, getting up.

"What happened last night?" I asked.

"A whole lot of nothing, not that I wasn't trying," she says.

"Seriously? I'm seeing someone and don't need a drunken indiscretion," I say.

"Oh my God, we know. All you kept talking about was her. You must have called me Camille about a hundred times last night," she says. "Your brother was taking pictures and video. Go ask him."

I made a note to ask Gabe about that later. I grabbed some clothes and jumped into the shower. I would miss my first class, but at least I can catch the rest. I peek into his room and see that he has three ladies in his bed including the strange one from last night. Chris was on the floor with a fourth woman.

I couldn't put my finger on why the woman seemed so strange but I didn't have time for that now. I grabbed my bag and Gabriel's keys and left. I just had to make it to lunch time.

Camille POV

I had way more details in my dream last night, but I was still unable to see his face. I got dressed in a rush then ran out of the apartment for class.

I was waiting for Gideon by the cafeteria. People kept looking at me differently. I couldn't figure out what the difference was until I smelled it. I forgot my scent concealer.
I was about to go home when I heard a familiar voice call, "hello mate." I turn around to see one of the two standing there grinning from ear to ear.
