Faking it

Chp 2: First Dinner

Cameron's Perspective:

Haley put her phone to ear. We were on the couch watching tv when her phone began to vibrate. I looked down as her phone. A unknown number illuminating the screen. She looked up at me then back at the phone. I gulped wondering who was calling. "Hello?" She answered nervously. it hasn't been the same since it happened.

She gave me a thumbs up and smiled. I jumped up and got behind the couch jumping up and down. "Who? Who is calling? Who is it?" i screamed jumping up and down. Hitting her on the shoulders. She put a hand up and giving me a face.

"Ya we would love to meet you, why don't you come over for dinner tomorrow?" She asked the unknown person. I gave her a questionable look and she gave me a reassuring glare.

"Who is it?" I yelled loudly. She went into her room and shut the door. I banged on the door. Trying to get her to tell me. The neighbors hate us enough already, why can't they hate s a bit more. "Haley Avalon James if you don't open the door now... I.... I will eat your pickles." I screamed into the door. She opened the door her phone no longer in her hand.

"I hid them and you will never find them." I laughed at her statement.

"If you don't tell me who you were talking to now, I will eat your pickles!" I screamed. She didn't answer so, I ran to the kitchen. She immediately tackled me, taking me down.

"I hid them from you, you'll never find them!" Haley said back.

As i was about to respond, there was a tall broad shadow cast above us. We both looked up and saw Nathan. I looked back at wigged me eyebrows.

"Um, am i interrupting something?" Nathan asked. Haley quickly got up and flattened her clothes.

"She threatened my pickles." Haley said giving me a death glare, looking up at Nathan blushing.

"Not that I don't love your presence but why are you here?" I asked.

He shrugged. "I'm hungry and Haley makes really good food. Also campus food today isn't the best."

"Let me guess there is fish or salad. You can't stand fish and you despise vegetables." Haley said putting her hand on her hip.

He slumped his arm over her shoulder. "Awe you know so much about me." He ruffled her hair and she blushed more, but tried very hard not to show it.

She got out from his grip and retreated into the kitchen. Nathan smirked at her retreating figure. I slapped him on the arm. "Stop it, ya nasty."  i said leaving Nathan there.

"Goodnight Nathan." Haley said as she shut the apartment door. "Oh my gosh my face hurts." She explained rubbing her jaw. "Too much smiling for one day." She went straight into her bedroom probably getting ready to go to bed. Thats means i should probably go to bed too.

I went out to the balcony, the cold air washing over me. I did that every night. I leaned over the railing. Looking at the small peice of California. It was a very beautiful at night. I reached to my necklace and unclipped it. I kissed the dark gold locket and clipped it back on my neck. "I love you so much and I will never stop loving you."

"Cam we have to leave now or we are going to be late to class!" Haley yelled. I hoped out the room trying to get my converse on.

"I am sorry, i just didn't sleep at all last night." I explained.

She leaned against the door frame and sighed. "Was it...." I nodded, and she knew i didn't like to talk about it so she didn't push on. We walked out of the complex and to the college, The California Arts College, only a block away.
