Tainted Love {sequel to The Player}

7- Apologies

Avery

When we arrive back at the school, Cameron had parked in the same spot as he did the previous time.

I looked down at my watch, only to see that it was 1:00. I still had another two hours before I'd have to get Liv.

I walked across the parking lot, with my heels making tapping noises every step I took. As I was almost to my vehicle, I heard footsteps following me from behind.

I pivoted my body around, only to see Cameron following me, like a puppy on a leash. I let out a sigh of annoyance. Doesn't he know when enough is enough?

"Why are you still prowling after me?" I ask, folding my arms over my chest, and looking at him. "You had your time to talk, and now it's over. Thank you for buying me lunch, now as you can see, I have to go. Have a good day".

I pivoted back around, and continued to walk.

"Avery". Cameron's distant voice calls. His firm voice made me stop in my tracks.

"What Cameron?" I ask, clearly annoyed. I continued to stare directly forward, not bothering to look back at him.

"I just want you to know, that I still care about you".

His voice changed from firm and solid, into a sweet, sincere tone. I knew I couldn't see him, but I could tell that he was wearing a feign smile.

"I want you to know that I care for you. And Olivia. It might not seem like I do, but trust me, I do... I just want you to keep that in mind".

The tone in his voice saddened, and I could tell that he was getting more and more mournful.

The voice in my head was telling me to turn around and forgive him. But at the same time, I couldn't. I wasn't ready to forgive him yet.

"If you don't want me in your life anymore, I understand. I'll go now..."

I felt a hot tear escape from my eye. It slowly rolled down my cheek, until reaching my chin and falling into mid air.

I quickly wiped my face and turned back around. Cameron was slowly walking away with his back facing me. His shoulders slumped and he walked very bleary.

"Cameron wait". I call.

My desperate voice, immediately caught his attention, and in a split second, he turned around.

His eyes glistened with brewing tears, making his eyes appear glossy and larger.

"I-I'm sorry". I hesitate, unsure if my words were appropriate for this situation.

"For what?" He asks quietly.

"You're trying really hard to be nice to me, and I'm just treating you like shit".

I wiped away another loose tear, and wiped under my eye, making sure my eyeliner wasn't getting runny.

"It's okay". Cameron says, running his hand threw is messy brown hair. "I deserve it anyways".

He pulls his lip between his teeth and his fists curl as I look at him. I watch as a single tear escapes his eye, and drizzles its way down his face.

Cameron's eyebrows knit together, and since then, he looked like he was going to burst into tears.

I walk over towards him and wrap my arms around his body.

The sweet smell of spearmint fulfilled my nose, as I inhaled his cologne. I could never get over at how amazing he smelt.

His body reacted quickly, and I felt the presence of his arms wrap around me too.

The feeling of his touch was incredible! It made my stomach light up like fireworks. It made my body shiver, and the speed of my heartbeat increase.

"I'm sorry". Cameron apologizes for the millionth time. I felt his hot tears drip onto my shoulder, leaving my shirt damp and cold.

"Me too". I whisper back, trying hardly not to cry myself. "Me too...". I repeat.

I also finished watching The Chosen, staring Kian Lawley, and I'm positive that I lost some brain cells. I got so confused! Like at the beginning of the movie, he had a blonde gf, and they were like making out and shiz, and then at the end of the movie, he had a brunette gf which supposably was pregnant with his baby? Like wah?? Was he cheating on the both of them? Idek, somebody help me😂😭
