Somebody punch me in the face!^
Avery
"Avery!" Cameron yell-whispered, grabbing my arm and yanking me back.
I was about to open my mouth and say something, when Cameron held his hand over my mouth and pushed me against the wall.
"Be quiet!" Cameron ordered, in a harsh, demanding tone.
His chest was pushed against mine, and his face was only inches away. The warmth of our bodies radiated off of each other, making me feel very clustered.
"Cameron? Where are you?" Alexis' voice asked. She sounded so thirsty at the moment, it made me want to puke.
With Cameron's hand still pressed to my mouth, I got a glimpse of movement from the corner of my eye. I turned my head, to see Alexis' shadow approaching from up the stairs.
I pushed Cameron's hand off of my mouth, but before I could say anything, she had already appeared from around the corner.
Her head snapped up, and she immediately caught us redhanded. Her eyes widened, and her mouth dropped open.
Cameron's body was still pressed against mine, and I could tell that things were not going to be pretty.
"What the hell?!" She shrieked, throwing her hands up in the air and glaring at the two of us.
Cameron quickly jumped off of me, and ran his fingers through his hair.
I swear, if he's going to defend her and not me, I'll be pissed.
"Why the fuck is she here?!" Alexis shouted.
"Calm down. She just came to get something". Cameron said.
The jealousy that was painted on her face was obvious that she was mad. She looked like a ticking time bomb.
"Why the hell were you leaning against her then?"
Cameron looked speechless. "She was about to leave, but then you came in, and I freaked out if you would've known she was here. So I covered her mouth, so she wouldn't say anything".
Alexis still wasn't buying it. Her evil, blue eyes switched back and forth between Cameron and I, searching for further information. All of the sudden, Alexis and Cameron began yelling and shouting at each other.
With Cameron on one side of me, and Alexis on the other, it was hard to focus when I had yelling going on in both ears.
"I wasn't cheating!" Cameron yelled.
"Yes you were!" Alexis fought back. "If you were trying to hide her from me, you obviously were!"
"Fine. I kissed her!" Cameron admitted, breaking the secret and spilling it on Alexis. My mouth dropped open, and I vulnerably looked at Alexis.
She looked shocked but more pissed. In a split second, she lifted her fist and collided it against my cheek. My face burned in pain, as her rough touch came in contact with my face. The pressure was too strong that it made me stumble back, and hit my head against the wall, and soon enough, falling to the floor.
A gasp escaped Cameron's mouth, and he immediately stepped forward, and nudged Alexis. I watched as his hands pushed her shoulders and she staggers backwards.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?!" Cameron boomed. Alexis' face was a mixture of rage and aggravation.
"What about you?!" Alexis yelled back. "You kissed her?!"
"Yeah well, I caught you cheating on me a few months ago! A little kiss is nothing compared to your make out session with that douchebag from your work!"
"I apologized to you! I told I was drunk and I didn't know what I was doing". She fired back.
Cameron nudged her again, causing her back to hit the railing.
I stood up, and rubbed my head. As they were continuing to yell, I decided just to leave.
I gathered my stuff, and ran down the twisty staircase, until reaching the bottom.
"Avery!" Cameron called back, as he realized that I was leaving.
I ignored his voice and continued to walk away.
I grabbed ahold of the metal handlebar, twisting it open and running outside.
I ran across their lawn, until I was finally at my car. Popping open the trunk, I threw my stuff in and slammed it shut. As I ran over towards the drivers seat, Cameron already beat me to it, and blocked the door.
"Avery, I'm so sorry!" Cameron cries. "She's being crazy, and I apologize for her actions".
My face continued to sting from the punch that Alexis had caused. I couldn't help but let a tear escape my eye, and let it roll down my cheek.
Cameron lifted his hand and for a second I flinched. His lips parted as he watched me react in a feared way.
"Avery, I'm not going to hurt you". He whispers, bringing his hand to my face and gently wiping away the loose tear. "I would never hurt you".
I closed my eyes as his hands glided across my face and then cupping my cheeks.
I slowly flickered my eyes open, wondering why his hands were still touching me. His sad gloomy eyes were staring into mine. He looked so worried and sad, that it frightened me.
Taking in the silence around us, I wanted to lean in and kiss him. Why was I so bipolar? One minute I want to kill him and yell at him, and then the next minute I wanted to kiss him and hug him. Out of seven billion people in this world, there's only one boy that can make me feel this way. Only one boy that can play with my feelings so hard that it would drive me crazy! And that happened to be Cameron.
