Breathless (Asking Alexandria, Cameron Liddell)

3. Starving

Parker-

"Parker, Dinner!" James yelled up the stairs.

I groaned, walking down the stairs and plopping down in one of the dining room chairs, grabbing a glass of water, sipping from it.

They passed food around the table as I sat there, politely declining.

"Parker you haven't eaten in three days." Ben sighed.

"So?" I raised my eyebrow.

It was true. I had refused to eat since I had gotten here.

"What are we cooking wrong? Can we make you anything special?" Denis asked.

These men were very kind but I was still so uncomfortable.

I was almost eight years younger than all of them.

Denis was the closest to my age, and we still had a five year age gap.

"No I'm fine."

"You need to eat Parker." Cam said.

"I said I'm fine." I glared.

Cam and I had gotten off to the worst start. He was easily my least favorite of the bunch, considering the fact that he smashed my phone and carried me away from home I think it was merited.

Besides his lifestyle bothered me.

The rest of the bunch all had girlfriends, while Cam just fucked various girls every night.

I had learned all this by researching them online, and frankly I felt even more intimidated by the group now.

"Park?" Sam said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"What?" I jumped at the sudden mention of my name.

"We were talking about high school graduation. Yours was last week right?" He asked.

"It was three days ago. I was kidnapped that day." I glared.

"It wasn't a kidnapping." Cameron groaned.

"Shut the fuck up Liddell." I glared at him.

"You know my last name." He smirked.

"So?" I glared.

"You searched us." He smirked.

"Well since you know about us, tell us about you." Denis smiled.

"I'll pass on that."

"Then you need to eat." Cam said. "It's one or the other.

"Or I could exercise free will and get up and leave." I said, getting up from the table and walking away.

"Where are you going?" Cam yelled as I left.

"Away from you all." I stormed up the stairs.

I heard chatter downstairs and then the click of boots following me.

Cameron.

I walked into my room, crossing my arms as I stared at a picture on the wall, waiting for him to come in and snap at me.

"Who is that?" He asked, closing the door behind him.

"Teddy." I smiled as I turned to look at Cameron.

"He must mean a lot to you. It's the first time that I've seen you smile." He smiled back at me.

His smile was adorable.

What was I saying it was Cameron. I hated Cameron.

"Yeah he was my best friend." I bit my lip.

"I want you to feel at home here." He sighed.
