Campbell's POV

I sit in the living room as I listen to Rue absolutely lose her shit with her mom and Gia, her mother told me to let her handle it if Rue gets violent and I promised her I would stay in the living room with Jules and Elliot

My leg shakes as I listen to her emotions go from sad to angry to remorseful to dreading all in a matter of minutes, I look to Jules and Elliot in disgust

They came together and I've seen some touches and closeness that makes me uneasy, I'm already ready to pounce on Rue if she even lays a finger on Gia let alone her mother

I hear a chuckle causing me to look over and see Rue coming towards us, I straighten up and get up off the couch next to Elliot as Rue looks at all three of us

"Oh..ok....I see what the fuck is goin on here....well first things first...Elliot is a fucking addict so if he tells you anything fucking differently, he's a liar and a fucking snake...fuck you" Rue says as she passes me and goes over to Elliot who she smacks in the head

"Rue....we ain't here to hurt you..but shits gotten out of control" I say and she laughs at me

"Really because tell me why I had to hear that you went to a fucking asylum from Lexi and not from you...I had to hear all this shit about my best friend nearly killing Cal Jacobs from someone else...I grew up with you and you keep that from!" Rue rants and I look down as I stay silent and she chuckles at me

"That's what I thought....you couldn't even tell me who your real dad was...or that you lost your mom you fucking crazy bitch" She yells in my face

"We cares about you, Campbell cares about you" Jules says and I roll my eyes

"Jules shut the fuck up" I say causing her to look at me

"Yea Jules shut the fuck up, this doesn't concern you" Rue fires back and Jules disagrees

"No it fucking doesn't" Rue yells

"Yes it does" Jules says sadly

"How" Rue argues

"Because I don't want you to kill yourself" Jules says and I fold my arms as I listen to them argue

I look back to Gia who looks scared and I immediately to over to her, I pull her into a hug and she hugs me back immediately

I look over and see rue looking between Jules and Elliot who can't meet her eyes, fuck

They were fucking each other weren't they

"Shit" I say to myself as I comfort Gia and Rue's mom runs my back

"Your fucking dead to me" Rue says through gritted teeth

"You don't mean that" Jules says and I scoff

"I fucking mean every fucking word...your dead to me Jules" Rue says and Jules continues to argue with her

"You and me..are done...there's nothing fucking there anymore....nothing...fucking...there, you know I have a lot of regrets in my life...but I gotta tell you Jules...meeting you...has got to be at the top of my fucking list...oh now you wanna fucking cry...Now you wanna fucking cry.....yeah your a fucking vampire....you just go around fuckin sucking the fucking spirt out of everyone...you like that shit..makes you feel good" Rue rants

"You know that's not true" Jules say and I immediately moves to Rue's side as she keeps getting close to Jules

I may not like her but I don't want Rue to kill her

"It is fucking true..it's all about fuckin Jules right...you don't know what the fuck your doing...you act all fucking innocent...like your just some sweet little Angel...who doesn't know what the fuck their doing...you know what the fuck your doing!" Rue yells

"I love you" Jules says

"No the fuck you don't..you love being loved" Rue says and before Jules can say anything I step in

"Jules just shut the fuck up, what your saying is g helping clearly" I yell and Rue looks to me with a laugh

"You....can get the fuck out of my face with that supportive friend bullshit...you left me too....you abandoned me so quickly for your new friends and when I called.....reaching for help...you left me in the dust....for your faggot father and your crazy girlfriend....bet your mother is so fucking proud of you...you fucking psychopath" Rue spits as she gets in my face

I feel my heart crack at her words and I immediately back up as her attention goes back to Jules, I move back as I feel hands grab my mine but I grab Gia's hand and kiss it before walking out

I get in my car and drive off to my house as I feel the tears coming out of my eyes, I hit the steering wheel angrily as I feel guilt and shame pouring over me

I was a horrible friend? Wasn't I?.......she came to me when she needed help and I let her down now I'm telling her she needs to get help....but I was looking out for myself wasn't I

Did I actually abandon her?

I pull up to my house and just sigh as I turn the car off and sit there for a minute feeling like utter shit

I walk in to see Marsha sitting on the couch with a glass of wine and music playing, I smile towards her as she waves to me

"Hey sweetheart....gosh I feel...interesting" She says and I laugh little as I go into the kitchen and get a water bottle

"Same here....it's weird not having...my father around" I say and Marsha sighs as she comes towards me

"Campbell....you are one strong girl and I am so proud....my ex husband....your father....he is a man I left in my past and your....well....Andrew was a very troubled man and still is...but I never thought he'd be abusive and I'm so sorry for not noticing sooner" She says and I shake my head a laugh lightly

"He hid it well and it's not like I didn't fight back...Marsha you've been great and I appreciate you taking me in" I say and Marsha smiles and pinches my cheek

"That a girl....always defend yourself when needed...also..you did great work on my son" She says before walking back to the living room, I chuckle to myself before walking up the stairs

I stares at the empty place in the wall where the picture of the family and I stood, crazy how he snuck me into that picture without any suspicion then had the nerve to put it up in the house

Men I swear, but I miss Cal...a lot for some reason

I walk to my room and flop on my bed still riling from the confrontation with Rue earlier and yesterday

I wish I could have done more but.....what could I really have done that everyone hasn't already done

A/n well damn, Rue really said that shit and tbh she's right but also Campbell can't save her every time unfortunately, idk how I feel
