My Only Hope

Chapter 38

Nash and Bella showed up. I let them in and put carson in her play pen.
"hey!" I say happily but nash looked highly irritated.
"Nash can you help me get something?" I ask
"I can help you" cam says.
"No you can't it's something for you" I lie.
"Oh okay" nash says following me upstairs.
"What's wrong, is everything okay with you and Bella?" I ask
"Yeah it's just someone I saw today.." He says
"Mandy?" I ask
"How'd you?"
"Cameron told me everything" I say
"Oh well I hate to say it but mandy is Bella's room mate, their friends" he says and my mouth drops.
"Seriously?" I say.
"Yeah.." He says.
"Does Bella know anything?" I ask
"No"
"Should we tell her?" I ask
"That's up to you, I'm not going to tell her something that I don't know every detail on" he Says
"Maybe it doesn't really matter right now" I say and we agree not to say anything until it was necessary.
We go back down and saw an awkward cameron sitting with a very talkative Bella.
C- she's interesting...
L- you'll get used to her😂
C- where's my present?!!?!
L- there's no present Doofus
C- seriously!?!!?:( you owe me.
L- I'll watch any movie you want tonight deal?
C-WOO SCARY MOVIE
L- ugh...
"Why are you guys texting eachother?" Bella laughs.
"We just do that sometimes" I say.
We continued our conversation until Bella brings up a name I didn't want to hear.
"My room mate is out on a date with some guy named jayden, do you guys know him? Is he cool?" She asks and I feel a lump in my throat.
"Jayden? Really?" Nash says.
"You know him?" She asks us.
"Yeah we know him" cameron says.
"Oh well is he nice? Mandy won't let me meet him for some reason" she says.
"I- I should probably go put carson in her c-rib I'll be back" I say grabbing carson out of her play pen and going upstairs. I put her in her crib and make sure the baby monitors are on. By now they had to be off the subject right?
I heard someone walk in and turned around.
"Nash made up an excuse, they left" he says sitting by me, beside carsons crib.
"My head is just spinning. I can't take my mind off the fact that the two people that hate me are like, teaming up on me" I say
"What's your favorite dog breed?" Cam asks
"What?"
"What's your favorite dog breed?" He repeats
"I don't know a husky I guess what does tha-"
"What do you want your first baby to be, a boy or girl?" He asks
I knew what he was doing now. And this is why I loved him. He wanted to keep me distracted from my thoughts.
"A girl" I say
"What would you name her?" He asks
"Charmendy" (pronounced car-men-dee)
"That's cute, what if it was a boy?" He asks
"I would name him caelyn (pronounced Kay-Lynn)
"Great. Now about that horror movie, I'll settle for some stupid romance movie you want" he laughs.
"Paper towns!" I yell. (I know it's not out yet but omg)
"Sounds good to me" he smiles.
~~~
*2:30 am*
I heard crying and walked sleepily over to carsons crib. Sadie said she only woke up once a night now, which I was happy about.
I pick her up and carry her down stairs so I wouldn't wake cameron. It was almost as if we were 6 year olds playing house, but much more difficult.
I set her in her play pen while I made a bottle.
I pick her up and feed her, her bottle.
No matter how tired I was, it always just made me happy to watch carson fall asleep in my arms.
Once she was done with her bottle and I put her back in her crib and slowly climbed into bed with cameron trying not to wake him up. He rolled over and wrapped his arms around me pulling me closer to him. (Do you ever Just cry at parts like this omg)
~~~~
I woke up and cam wasn't in bed.
I grabbed my phone and got out of bed. As I walked down the stairs I checked my notifs.
Cameron Tagged me in an Instagram. (Picture above)
'Sleepy lillian is the cutest lillian'
I liked the photo and locked my phone.
"Chocolate pancakes?!" I say excitedly walking into the kitchen.
"Yep" he smiles.
"Best boyfriend ever" I say kissing his cheek.
"So I was thinking we could take carson to the zoo today" he says
"Sounds great" I smile. Carson was crawling around playing with her toys.
"chocolate pancakes are ready my dear" he says
I get a plate and sit on the couch along with him.
"Carson is already fed and I changed her diaper which was probably the worst thing I've ever done" cam laughs.
"So proud" I laugh.
~
I was getting carson ready for the zoo. I put her in a little yellow and white polkadot dress and little white shoes.
"I never knew getting a baby dressed would be so much fun!" I say and cam laughs at me.
"Can I pick out your outfit too?!" I say
"No"
"Why not?"
"Because I don't trust you" he says. I put a little white floppy hat on carson and we were ready to go.
We got in the car and I was getting a call from sadie.
L- hey sadie!
S- hey! We finally are settled in. How's carson?
L- she's doing fine actually, we're taking her to the zoo now.
S- oh fun! She's going to love that. How's it staying with cameron?
L- fun, I woke up to chocolate pancakes.
C- they were good too!
S- well great for you haha, me and Jack are about to head down to the beach it's so hot here!
L- wish it was warmer here
S- well I just wanted to check in, I'll call you later
L- okay bye!
I hang up and we arrive at the zoo.
"You ready to see animals carson?" I say and she does an excited laugh.
We get out and cam gets her stroller out. I put her in and we go to the entrance. Cam pays and we go inside.
We went to see the monkeys first. Carson LOVES monkeys. That's explains why her favorite cartoon is curious George.
I pick her up out of her stroller so she can see the monkeys better.
"George!" She yells pointing at the monkey. Pronouncing George in a funny way.
"Yes it's George!" I laughs.
Cam decides to carry her so she can see all the animals but she would no doubt pass out once we were done so we kept the stroller with us.
We went by the rhinos, flamingos, bird sanctuary, and a lot more. We got to the petting zoo and we took carson in to pet the goats, lambs, donkeys, and ponies.
"Your daughter is so adorable! Where did you get that cute little hat?" A lady who looks to be in her 70's says to me and cam.
"Oh she's not ours" I say.
"Oh I apologize I just assumed" she smiles so sweetly.
"It's fine" cameron says.
"Well have a nice day" she says and walks away.
"We're way hotter than Jack and sadie our kid will be way more cute" cam says
"Cameron you're awful!" I laugh.
After sadie was done, I called it, she fell asleep. We put her in her stroller and walked back to the car and I strap carson in.
We start to drive and I get a text.
Samuel😎: need you asap. Johnson got messed up.
L- what?!! What do you mean?!
Samuel😎: just come asap.
"Cam something happens to johnson. Do you think you can take care of her for a little?" I ask
"Yeah for sure is he alright?" He asks
"I have no idea" I say.
He drops me off at sams and I rush inside.
"What happend?" I ask seeing sam, nate, and johnson who had a messed up face.
"I was hangin with nash and he left with that Bella girl and all of the sudden jayden shows up." He explains.
"And some girl... I saw a girl out the window after he left. She was waiting for him" he says
"What'd she look like?!" I ask instantly
"Long blonde hair, tall?" He says
"Mandy."
"Mandy?" Sam asks.
"Guess I have something to explain to you.."
