We rested while Chris was figuring out the code by... Staring at the wall. Yay, exciting. I sit and leans against the wall, scowling. I didn't realize it until Cam poked my shoulder and sat next to me.

"Why are you so angry?" She asks me.

"This room. My life. That stupid flirty kid," I mumble.

"That guy didn't even say anything to you so far-"

"But he-he winked at you," I say, discussed. Cameron smirks.

"Are you-Are you jealous?!" She asks me smiling. I blush and shake my head.

"N-No I-!"

"You're blushing! Oh my gosh, you are so jealous!" She squeals. She laughs as I cover my face blushing, embarrassed. Cam smiles softly and kisses my cheek sweetly. My eyes widen and I blush harder.

"Don't worry. I'm not a huge fan of him either," she tells me. A smirk spreads across my face as the kid with the glasses, Chris, stands up. We look at him.

"8367, 8367, 8367. That's it. 8367," he mumbles. "Aaron; put it 8367, now. We'll be ready." Aaron nods and smirks at Cam.

"How about a kiss for good luck?" He coos and he leans in, placing a hand far below her waist. Fury boils inside me and I clench my fists. Cam puts her fingers on his lips, pushing him away as she smacks his arm hard. He pulls his arm away wincing.

"How about no," she growls.

"Whatever," he snarls and walks through the wall. Cam groans and crosses her arms.

"That little bastard, I swear-" I start but she stops me.

"It's fine, calm down-" Cam says but I interrupt her.

"It is most definitely NOT fine! I saw the way he touched you he-!"

"Not all men are gentlemen like you, James," she says kindly, softly. It calms me down a little.

"Th-Thanks..." I mumble still angry.

I see the door open and Aaron walks in.

"There's a lot of guys out there. Be ready," he says. I want to punch him badly but instead I walk out, ready.
