Kirsten's POV
-------------------------------
I was relaxing in my bed, humming. It was probably the most peaceful time of the day. Nighttime which means bedtime. I was just getting ready to doze off, even though it was 2:03am. I was working on my computer all night, and it crashed for an hour. Finally the computer started working, but everything was erased, so I had to start over. So I was snuggling into my warm bed in my cozy socks. Then my eyes popped open with an annoying twitch. I've been disturbed, I thought. I looked towards my dresser and my phone was ringing. Really? Who else would it be other than Cameron. I picked up the phone and heard him panting.

"Cameron? You okay!", I asked.

"Yeah--I'm--I'm fine--uh-can you--like maybe--like you know--come over?"

"Um, you do realize that it's 2:06, right? I mean who calls someone and who answers that late?"

"Umm, us. I called, you picked up. And it 2:06. So yeah..", he said.

"Cameron it's just too late."

"Please!!! It's important."

"Mmmmm? Agh, fine! But could you at least give me a 5 hour warning?!"

He hung up and I rolled my eyes. I grabbed a overly sized sweatshirt, because it was as cold as hell out there. I grabbed my keys and ran out. I drove up to the complex and ran up to his apartment. He opened the door. All I could think of was how much he smelled. He was covered in sweat and his pits were stained.

"Right, I probably should have taken a shower", he said, realizing I noticed the smell.

He ran to the shower as I plopped on the couch. Why did he smell that bad? I mean is he an active sleeper or something? I knew something was wrong or something was really exiting for him. I didn't realize that I've been thinking for 20 minutes. Cameron walked in with wet, stringy hair, and had on a long sleeve shirt.

"Okay, I have news.", he said.

"Good or bad?"

"Good."

"Okay, what is it then."

"I had a dream."

"Wow, that's really fascinating Dr. Goodkin, except for one thing, that's not fascinating. Everybody has dreams, moron.", I said, feeling like I was wasting my time here.

"No, it a dream about our future.", he said.

"Um, our future. You mean we have a future together in your dream?"

"Yeah, you were a science teacher and I was working at a car dealership. And we were married and---"

"Wait, what!! We were married!!!", I exclaimed.

"Yeah. This took place a few years from now. Oh, and we had a child.", he said.

My heart stopped beating. I always wanted a child, I just never told anyone.

"A child? Was it a boy or girl?", I asked quietly.

"Girl, her name was---"

"Rosemary...", I said blindly.

"What?", he said leaning in closer to me.

"Ever since I was 12, I used to think about having a husband and kids. A whole family. I said if I ever had a boy, I would name him Maximus, or Max for short. If it was a girl, I said I would name her Rosemary, or Rose or Mary for short. How did you know it was Rosemary?", I asked very curiously.

"Well I didn't, she was just...there."

"What was she like?", I asked.

"Wow, she was just beautiful. She looked just like you and she wanted to be just liked you. She adored you. Are you blushing?"

"Honestly, yes. I mean I've never heard of anyone caring that much for me."

I knew it was wrong right when said it. I shouldn't have said that. Now Cameron is going to think that I don't know how much he cares about me. Ugh really, smart one! I looked over to him and as I predicted he was hurt. He didn't say anything, he just had that face where he felt like he was going to cry. I didn't want him to cry. It made me sting in the bottom of my stomach every time I looked at him. I know Cameron cares about me a lot. But I cared about him more, just never admitted to myself. I turned and leaped into his lap. I crossed my legs over his waist.

"What are you doing?", he said quietly.

"I do know you care about me, Cameron."

Before he could say anything I grabbed his hair and pulled him to my lips. I felt him shivering; and it wasn't because he wasn't because he was cold either. We started sinking into the couch. Deeper and deeper with passion. I broke away from him and I saw his face still puckered up.

"No, I want more.", he said as he made kissy gestures.

I laughed. I felt so lucky.

"Hmmm."

"What?",he said.

"I think I'm going to have to change your name."

He laughed. He knew.

"Well, I guess you're the girlfriend now aren't you?", he said with a smile.

"Yep. And I guess you're the boyfriend now."

He purred under my neck. Now that gave me some chills. It must've been obvious because he softly kissed my on my neck, up to my cheek, and his lips met mine.

"Cameron?", I said.

"Yeah?", he said nervously.

"I do think that we could have a family. I mean not now, but when the time is right."

"Really?", he said with a childlike grin.

"Yeah. Of course. Now less talky more kissy!", I said as leaned over to his face. He stopped me and put his fingers on my lips.

"Kirsten; I love you.", he said quietly. As he said it I smiled.

"I love you too, Cameron."

"I love you more.", he said starting a war.

"Guess what?", I asked.

"What?"

"I love you most!!", I said as I tackled him on the floor. We ended up rolling on the floor laughing so hard, we got abs.

"Kirsten?", Cameron said.

"Yes?"

"I missed you.", he said.

I had nothing to say after that. Those words are probably more heartwarming than 'I love you'.
