|| Cameron's P.O.V ||

     "Hey ummm... can you come over please?" Victoria whispered through the phone. She sounded like she was on the verge of tears.

     "Uhh yeah I'll be over in a moment. Text me your address." I say quickly gathering my things. Nash looks at me with a concerned expression.

      "What's going on man? " He asks.  "I don't know, Victoria just called me and she sounded really bad. I'm going to go check on her and make sure she's okay." I say grabbing my keys off the coffee table.

      "Alright Cam, be careful bye." Nash says. "I will bye." I say heading out.
I arrive at her house, and I knock on the front door. She opens up, and immediately I can tell she's been crying.

      My expression softens, and I can't decide whether to play it off cool or be the nice guy. I look at her, and god even when she's been crying she still looks stunning.

     I snap out of my thoughts, when she grabs my hand and leads me to her bedroom upstairs. I have no clue what's going on. Maybe she's on her period?

      We enter her bedroom, and she motions me to sit next to her on the floor. "I'm sorry I called you at one o'clock in the morning. You probably think I'm crazy, but I just really need someone right now. I didn't want to do anything stupid, so I called you because I thought you would help." She said.

     "Vic what's going on? Are you okay?" I ask concerned. "No, I'm not okay. Cameron my dad walked out on me when I was fourteen. My life has been really tough ever since.

     I stopped cutting for a while, but now those feelings are coming back." She says. Well shit, this girl has quite the past. "Victoria let me see your scars." I say grabbing her wrists.

     She takes off all of her bracelets, and I'm completely taken back at the view. There is a variety of scars some small some big, but all representing a low point in her life.
    
     "Cameron you don't have to see them, I know this isn't pretty." She says beginning to put her bracelets back on, but I gently stop her.

       "Victoria I know you think this is going to scare me away, but it's not. I'm going to stay by your side through every step of the way. I know you don't think you're beautiful now, but I really wish you would see what I do. You are honestly one of the strongest persons I've ever met. " I say to her.

       She looks at me, walks over to where I'm sitting, and falls into my arms. I place a kiss on her wrist, and she smiles.

      "Okay enough of my sad shitty problems. I need a drink." She says walking towards her closet. She looks through a couple of her drawers and pulls out a flask.

      "Aha! Here it is, I've been saving this for when I really needed it and this seems about right." She says taking a big gulp. She hands the flask to me, and I also gulp down some whisky.

****

      "Cameron you're hot as fuckkk." She slurs. I chuckle and guide her to her bed. "Okay it's time for bed, as fun as it is watching you this drunk you should get some rest." I say.

      I tuck her in and place a kiss on her forehead. I then grab a pillow and a blanket and set them on the floor. I decide I might as well spend the night to make sure she's okay until tomorrow.

     As I lay there, I realize I may be catching feelings for this girl. I'm going to regret not kissing her tonight. I walk over to her bed where I can hear her quiet snores and I gently kiss her lips.

       "I really hope you don't remember this tomorrow." I whisper to her. That's the last thing I remember before drifting off.

~~~~~~~ Next Morning~~~~~~~

|| Victoria's P.O.V||

     I open my eyes, and immediately my head starts pounding. Crap, what happened last night? I stand up, see Cameron asleep on my floor, and I almost scream. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Every memory from last night comes flooding back.

     I remember texting Cameron, him coming over, us talking for a while, but that's it. Fuck, did we hook up last night? You would know if you had sex with someone right? I don't really feel any different, but I decide to play it safe and take a pregnancy test.

     I sprint to my bathroom, pee on the stupid stick, and wash my hands. To pass the time I wash my face. Well damn, three minutes have never felt like longer. I finally take a look at the stick, and it shows a negative sign. Oh thank goodness I feel so much better now.

      I open my bathroom door, and I see Cameron is awake. He smiles at me, and I sit next to him. "Good morning beautiful." He says.

       "Hey Cam thanks for being here for me. Do you want to hang out today?" I ask. "Yeah sure, let's go to the zoo." He says. "Okay let me get ready. " I say walking towards my closet. I have a feeling today is going to be a good day.
