Chapter 3

Dinner couldn't have gone by so slow.

To make things a little worse Cameron sat right across from me. He wouldn't stop looking at me. Like take a picture it will last longer.

"So, Alex how long have you known Cameron?" Gina asked.

"Since 7th grade. Although he never talked to me so" I said and slammed my fork down on my plate.

"Alex!" My mom mumbled and slapped my arm. I glared at her.

"May I be excused" I asked. My mom nodded. I got up and put my plate in the sink. I walked upstairs and shut my door a little to loud.

I walked to my bed and jumped on my bed and slammed my head into the pillow. I have no idea why I'm acting like this. I'm so bitchy.

I heard a soft knock on my door.

"Come in" i yelled through my pillow.

"You okay?" I heard a familiar voice say. I looked up and saw Cameron standing with a concerned look.

"Why do you care?" I snapped.

"I'm your friend Alex" he said.

"My friend? Are you high? You've never talked to me before this year! Why can't you get that I have trust issues Cam? I remember 7th grade when we both went to Taylor Caniff's 13th birthday party and you told me we would be best friends forever" I said while a tear fell down my cheek.

"Alex. Why didn't you tell me this sooner?" He asked.

"You never talk to me" I said and buried my face in my pillow.

"I'm sorry I put you through this-" before he could continue I interrupted him.

"Please just hold me or something" I said and began sobbing. Cameron picked me up and put me in his lap. His arms wrapped around my waist and my and hands stayed in my lap.

I don't know why I am sobbing but I am. I can't believe I'm in Cameron's arms. Why did I tell him all of this shit in my life. I guess he's just easy to talk to.

"I'm sorry I'm a mess Cam" i said and attempted to wipe some tears away. Cameron wiped most of my tears away with his thumb.

"It's perfectly fine. I'm just glad I could be here for you" he said still holding me in his arms.

"I wish we were still friends Cameron" I said and buried my face and his chest.

"Why aren't we?" He asked.

"Your 'Mr. Popular' and I'm a loser" I said.

"What?" Cameron said and pulled me off his chest gently.

"You are definitely not a loser Alex. And I'm not 'Mr. Popular'." He said and looked into my eyes.

I threw my arms around his neck and buried my face into the crook of his neck. He pulled me into him and wrapped his arms around my waist. I never wanted to move from his position.

"Cameron!" I heard Gina yell. I sighed and detached myself from him. But he pulled me back into him.

"Cam you have to go" I said and tried to pull myself away. He laughed into my hair and got up causing me to fall. I glared at him. He starting laughing his ass off. I giggled a bit.

"Come here Alex" he said and picked me up and threw me on my bed. I was laughing uncontrollably. He got on top of me and started tickling my sides causing me wiggle beneath him.

"Cam-stop-please" I choked out from all my giggles. He stopped and kissed my cheek. Damn.

"Cameron Dallas!" Gina yelled again. He groaned and got up. I sighed. He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back. He pulled into a tight hug.

"I'll text you" he whispered into my ear then left my room. I smiled then walked to my closet and grabbed my spandex and a blue t-shirt that hangs off the shoulder a bit.

I walked into the bathroom and brushed my teeth and hair. I threw my hair into a messy bun and laid down on my bed and covered up.

My phone buzzed on my night stand and it read Cameron.

Cameron- hey
Me- hi
Cameron- what's up?
Me-siting here bored asf hbu?
Cameron- same
Me-yep
Cameron-I'll see you tomorrow Alex😏
Me-okay bye😊

I put my phone down and put it on my charger. I closed my eyes and soon drifted off to a deep sleep.

*next morning*

Thank god it's Sunday.

I looked at my phone and saw I had 3 messages from Cameron.

Cameron-hey☺️
Cameron-can I talk to you?
Cameron-can I come over?
Me- yeah of course

I walked to my closet and changed into black leggings, a mint green sweat shirt, and put on my black fuzzy socks.

"Alex!" I heard Cameron yell.

"In my room!" I yelled back. I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and my door open then close.

"Hey cam what's-" I said until I turned around and saw Cameron had a bloody lip, a black eye, and a bruise on his jawline.

"Cameron! Are you okay?" I asked and ran to him. He looked like he has been crying. I grabbed his hand and dragged him to my bathroom. I grabbed a rag and wet it then dabbed his bloody lip.

"Who did this to you?" I asked.

"My moms boyfriend" he said.

"I'm sorry Cam" I said and was about to kiss his cheek then he cupped my face and brought his lips to mine. Our lips moves in sync. I pulled away to catch my breath.

"Um Cameron. I thought you didn't like me" I said until he kissed me again. His lips are soft and plump and amazing.

(I'm to creepy to handle)

"I always have Alex" he said and pulled me into a hug and wrapped his arms around my waist. I put my arms around his neck and looked at myself in the mirror.

I hope he isn't playing me.
