Just Another Day...

Chapter 9

Once Pauline and I were done our speech I felt relieved. I felt good, proud, special!
Everyone applauded. I heard Cameron in the crowd screaming our names. It was nice.

When Pauline and I returned to our seats, Enzo's little cousin came up and guided us with the prayers. Once we sat back down Cameron told us what a great job we did.
Then the doors opened and waiters and waitresses came with stacks of plates. It was beautiful. We had pasta first. It was penne with tomato sauce and two meatballs. It looked lovely and tasted lovely too.

Even though I was having a blast at Ashley's wedding my mind was still on Kimberly. I couldn't get my mind off her so I went to the ladies room to call her.
"I'll be right back Cameron."
I left the table.
"Hello?"
She didn't sound so good.
"Hey Kimberly! It's me Amber."
"Oh hey. Sorry I couldn't come tonight!"
"It's okay. What are you doing."
I heard someone in the background saying hurry.
"Just hanging out with Elisabeth. Sorry but I have to go finish my meal!"
She hung up. I felt replaced. She didn't want me anymore! She had Elisabeth. She wasn't only her special someone but she was also her friend. They were very close. I just wish she told me sooner.

I left the ladies room and headed back to the table but on my way there I encountered my mother. She walked straight passed me and gave me a smirk. She disgusted me.
"Aren't you going to say good job honey¿"
She kept on walking and then stopped and turned around.
"Great job honey for ruining our reputation with Pauline!"
She walked away and so did I.
I heard the sound of her high heals walking away.

When I went back to the table, I finished my pasta.
"I am so happy we are here all together."
Cameron held my hand.
Pauline looked at me in a suspicious way.
"What's wrong Amber!?"
I told them about my mom. I didn't feel good, I felt sick.
"Don't worry about our parents. We have each other and that's all we need."

Once we finished eating the pasta our second course came. It was chicken, cooked carrots, broccoli and mashed potato. It was delicious. Cameron loved the chicken so u gave him my chicken leg.

Once we were done eating music came on. The first song was The Macarena. Cameron pulled me up and brought me to the dance floor. We started doing the Macarena and we were dying of laughter. It was hilarious. Cameron didn't know it all so he just moved his arms in the air and started singing. He was pretty confident in his singing, considering he didn't speak Spanish. Pauline was laughing from her table. When she song finished a slow song came up. He gently took my hand and put in front of his mouth.
"Will you, Amber Leaves dance with me?¿"
"Why Cameron! I would love to."
He kissed my hand. He got up and we were dancing to "Thinking Out Loud."
It felt amazing to be with him. He gently put his arms around my waist and I put my arms around his neck. There was very little space between us. It felt good. I felt him breathing on me. I am sure he smelled my perfume. It was Cherry Blossom. I certainly smelled his cologne.
I put my head on his chest and he put his head on mine. He then came closer to my ear which gave me chills.
"Do you still have the roses I gave you?"
"Yes I do! I still have them. They are on my cabinet."
He kissed my neck.
"Good."
I felt his heart beating. I loved being with Cameron. He looked at me and smiled.
"Do you want to get out of here?!"
I didn't know where this was going but I took his hand anyways.
We left the hall and we walked outside. There were lights all over the perimeter of the hall. There was a hammock. He laid down in the hammock and he put his arm around me.
I was amazed by all the stars.
"Look at all of the stars! They're beautiful."
He smiled and he wasn't looking at the stars he was looking at me.
"What Cameron?"
He starting playing with my hair.
"You're my star. You shine bright. You're beautiful inside and out."
I giggled.
"I love you Cameron."
He put his hand on my cheek bone. He leaned his head on my head. He kissed me. He probably tasted my pink lipstick. He then pulled away and put his arm around me.
"I love you too."
I put my head on his chest. I fell asleep on him. I didn't even remember anything.

I woke up in his hotel room. He was sleeping right beside me. I didn't want to wake him up so I put my arms around him. I knew he was sleeping so I spoke to him.
"Cameron. Now that the wedding is done, we both have to leave and go back home. I don't want to leave you. I don't know where I am going to go. I just know I want to be with you."
I then closed my eyes and went back to bed.

We both woke up and we were laying in bed. He didn't know I was awake and he spoke to me because he thought I didn't hear him.
"Amber. I heard you speak to me last night. I know you can't hear me but oh well."
He laughed to himself and he stroked my hair.
"I don't want to leave you either. I love you more than anything. I want you to stay with me forever. This has been the best trip of my life. You are the best thing of my life."
I laughed.
"You're awake?"
I turned around.
"I guess we both heard each other."
I laughed. He kissed my forehead and held my hand.

I could tell that today was going to be a good day.

We both got out of bed. He made us coffee. We both took showers. I changed into my spare clothes in my purse. I always come prepared. I was wearing a skater skirt and a red crop top. Cameron and I stayed in his hotel room all day. It was fun. We played so many stupid games. He braided my hair which was an epic fail. We did leave the hotel room once. We went to the grocery store to go but ingredients to make a cake. He pushed me in the grocery cart. We were screaming in the grocery store. It was hilarious.

When we went home to his hotel room we baked a cake. We wore aprons. He was behind me and I could feel him breathing on me. He was telling me what to do first.
"Now you put the eggs in."
He was stroking my hair while I put the eggs in.
He passed me the whisk. I put my hand on the whisk and he put his hand on my hand. We whisked together. Once the batter was ready. We put the cake in the oven.

While we waited we cuddled on the bed until we got interrupted by someone at the door. It was the cops. "I am sorry, Mr. Dallas. You're mother has passed away."
