After I walked Cameron to Math I had History. History went by fast and before I knew it, it was time to go home. I lived about 20 minutes away from school.
I was going to Starbucks to get some coffee. I walked in expecting the place to be packed. I mean people go in there all the time just for wifi! I walked in and the place was so quiet, I expected a tumbleweed to roll by. I ordered my coffee and sat down to do some homework before I go home. Then I heard the bell ring on the door which indicated someone was walking in, definitely not walking out! It was Cameron.
"Hey, how did you like your first day of school here?" I said looking at him. he turned around like he had seen a ghost.
"Oh it was okay, It's not like any of my other schools." He looked like he was having a flash back or something.
"Oh well what do you mean by that?"
"Oh nothing, just forget I said anything." He looked serious like he was hiding something. "Oh crap I'm late! He's going to kill me!"
"Who's going to kill you where are you late to?"
"No where just please stop asking questions! Do you have a car!?"
"I do have a car but it's at my house because my dad drove me."
"Well do you have a bike!? I'm already late he will kill me if I'm any later!!!?"
"Yea I have a bike let's go."
"Okay thank you so much! Your a life saver!"
"No problem." We got on the bike he was on the Pegs. I was peddling like there was no tomorrow! After a bunch of lefts and rights we made it!
"Hey, uh I hate to ask you this but can you stay at my house for awhile? He won't do anything if your here?"
"Uh, I really should go home. But if it means this much to you then I guess I could."
"Oh thank you again!"
"Anytime." He was definitely a closed book. He didn't tell me anything! I was hoping he will tell me while I'm here today.
We walked in the house and his dad looked like he was about to blow a top. When I walked in it's like he had just put it aside.
"Hey dad sorry I'm late my car broke down."
That's alright Cameron everyone makes mistakes. Who's your friend?" He said through his teeth.
"I'm Jessica. I was showing Cameron around school, Uh it is my fault he's late. You don't have to blame him. Come on Cameron we should get going and start on our homework."
"Yea I'll see you later dad."
"Later son" We walked up the stairs to his room and I absolutely loved his room! He had posters of My chemical Romance, Panic at the Disco, Marylin Manson, Five Finger Death Punch! You name it he probably had it!
"Oh my god! I love your room!"
"Oh yea"
"Yea it's awesome!"
"Thanks, why did you cover for me?"
"Cause your my friend and you look scared half to death of your dad."
"Well not really I just uh.......Didn't want to be late.... For uh.... Family dinner."
"Okay whatever you say." The hesitation in his voice gave away he was lying. "So we should uh study Cause I have to be home in 30 minutes."
"You can go if you like?"
"Are you sure I mean like you obviously you don't want to be here."
"No I guess I'll be fine."
