Call Me Cam

Chapter One

Me and Brad are sitting on the couch eating popcorn as always and watching Tv. We had sex for the first time yesterday and i trust him so much, well of course i do. We have dated for over a year, i would trust him with my life.  I lay my head on his shoulder and he kisses my forehead "I love you Ava."

 I always love when he shows affection and tells me how he feels. "I love you too Brad" i reciprocate, smiling. Sometimes when we have these little moments i get upset and start thinking about Brad leaving me. I have no idea what i would do without him.

I feel his hand under my chin and he raises my head so i will look at him. "Im not leaving you, alright?" He always knows what im thinking. "You promise?" I ask sniffling from crying. "I promise" 

After we get done watching tv he decides to head home. After we say our goodbyes i decide to take a shower and go straight to bed, it may not be a school night because we are on summer break but i still go to bed at a decent time. 

I wake up the next morning and get ready to spend the day with Brad. I hear him knock on my door and run down to answer it since my dad is never home and doesn't care what i do. He is acting different, he is probably in just one of his moods so i don't think anything of it. "Are you ready to have a great day?" i jump around trying to lighten his mood. 

His phone starts ringing and he puts his hands in his front pocket fishing for his phone. He slides over and puts it to his ear going to the next room. "I have to call a rain check, my mom needs me. Love you." He tells me while coming back into the room and going for the door. "Uh okay, love you." I try to tell him but he shuts the door in the middle of my sentence so i highly doubt he heard me. 

Looks like im by myself today.. great. I make myself a turkey sandwich for lunch and almost swallow it whole. I go to my living room and look for my phone that i just had on the couch, but of course i misplaced it so i have to lift the cover off the couch and shake it out to see if its in there. Then i hear thud against the ground. Found it i say chuckling to myself. When i get my phone off the ground i see i have a text from brad.

B: Hey Ava, i dont think we should see each other anymore. We are just going in separate directions and i just think you should move on. I will always care abut you but i just dont love you anymore. Im so sorry. 

A: What are you talking about Brad? I just gave you my virginity two days ago and you were just telling me you loved me not even an hour ago?

B: Im sorry. 

Here it is, the day that i always thought would never happen and its finally happening after him promising it wouldnt over a hundred times. All i thought about doing is deleting everything that reminds me of him. Contacts, Social media, profile pictures, pictures in my gallery, everything. A couple minutes later it hit me, and it hit me hard. I am crying uncontrollably and i cant breathe, i cant breathe without Brad. Knowing that he has already moved on makes everything so much worse. 

I go into my room and try to forget about everything but instead i am just reminded of him everywhere i turn. There are pictures on my wall of us and just looking at my bed reminds me of him. I rip the pictures down from the wall and decide to do the only thing that i do best, sleep. 

When i wake up i feel completely empty and like a zombie. I feel completely emotionless, like bricks are weighing down on my chest. I just want to get out of the small town and away from Florida and thats what i decide to do, run away. I get my laptop and find myself looking at flights to California and hitting purchase.
