Chapter 19

"Alex?" I heard someone say. I turned and saw Xander.

"What do you want?" I snapped.
He backed away and held his hands up.

"Are you okay Lex?" he asked.

"Do I look okay?" I asked.

"No. Let me take you home." He said.

"No, I can walk." I got up and pushed past him.

"Lex, please let me help you." He said and grabbed my hand. I ranked it away and turned to him.

"Don't call me 'Lex'." I sassed and walked down the road. I don't need or want help. I'm perfectly fine on my own. I can do this by myself.

I walked and walked until I saw Cameron outside hurting baseballs with Nash. Nash pitched and Cameron hit it over our neighbors house. Cameron smiled and Nash gave him a 'holy shit bro' look.

I kept on walking until Cameron called my name. I turned and saw him gesture me over. I just kept on walking. I reached my house and saw my dads car outside.

It felt like my heart stopped. Why is he home? He's suppose to be in jail.

I walked inside and saw my dad, mom, Justin, Sofia, and Willow eating dinner. What the hell is happening?

"Hey honey!" My dad said and hugged me.

"Come eat with the family." He said and dragged me into the kitchen. I looked at them and they all smiled.

"Sofia isn't family." I said.

"She's my girlfriend Lex." Justin said.

"Then why didn't you bring all your other fuck buddies to dinner?" I snapped. My slammed her fork down and glared at me.

"That's enough!" My dad yelled.

"What are you gonna do hit me? Do it." I crossed my arms.

"I'm not gonna hit your sweetheart." He said gently. I rolled my eyes and walked upstairs. I opened my door and stepped in. I shut it and walked to the bathroom. I lifted my sleeve up and put bandaids on my cuts. I put my sleeve down and walked to my closet.

I put on my black crop top, black high waisted shorts, and my white converse. I took off my jewelry and put on my silver moon thumb ring. I then put in my rose earrings.

I grabbed my phone and put it in my back pocket. I opened my door and headed downstairs. I snuck past my family and opened the front door. I stepped outside and headed down the driveway.

I walked down the street and saw Cameron sitting on his front steps looking at his phone. I walked over to his house and saw his step dad and mom fighting. I walked over to him and lifted his chin up.

"What's going on babe?" I asked. He looked at me then at the ground.

"Noting. They are just fighting, like always." He said and looked at me.

"I'm sorry Cam." I kissed his cheek and sat beside him. He looped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I smiled and laid my head on his shoulder. After about 3 minutes of sitting in silence he pulled me off him, gently, and looked at me.

"Why did you cut Alex?" He asked. I looked at him and took a deep breath.

"Anna committed suicide." I choked. out. I held in the tears as much as a could.

"She's gone." I cried. Cameron held me in his arms and kissed my head. His arms were around my lower waist and my arms were around his neck.

"Baby, shh, I'm here." He told me. I sat up and Cameron wiped my tears away with his thumb. I slightly smiled. Cameron rubbed my stomach and quietly talked to the baby. I giggled and ran my fingers through his hair. I kissed his head and laid my head on his shoulder.

"Wanna go on a walk?" He asked.

"Sure." I got up and grabbed Cameron's hand. I intertwined our fingers and leaned into him. He kissed my head as we walked down the street. We got past my house and I saw my mom and dad frowning.

"Wait one sec babe." I said. I walked up the front stairs and opened my door. I saw my parents talking.

"What's going on?" I asked. They turned to me and my mother frowned. My dad on the other hand was smiling.

"We are getting a divorce and you are going to live with your dad." My mother said and walked to the kitchen. I stood there looking at me dad.

"Dad I'm not moving with you." I said.

"Sweetie, it's at the end of the month." He said and walked into the kitchen. I stood there wondering what Cameron is going to say. I stepped outside and saw Cameron standing there. He looked at me and smiled, but that soon faded.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

"Cam I'm moving at the end of the month." I said and wiped tears away. He looked at me with anger in his eyes.

"What?" He raised his voice.

"Cameron it's not my-"

"Well you could beg to stay or at least try something Alex!" He yelled this time. This isn't happening. I looked at him with disbelief.

"I did a little." I said.

"A little! Where is that going to get you Alex!" He threw his hands in the air.

"Look Cameron I'm sorry." I said and walked towards him.

"Yeah me too." Cameron began to walk away. I grabbed his arm and pulled him back.

"Are you seriously mad at me?" I asked.

"Yes! You aren't even trying to stay!" He yelled in my face. I rolled my eyes.

"This in unfair Cam." I said and crossed my arms over my chest.

"What's unfair is having a girlfriend who doesn't want to stay in the same state with me." He said, but this time with sadness in his voice.

"All I want to do is be with you Cameron. But right now I have to deal and fix things with my dad." I said.

"Then do it fast." He snapped and walked to his house. I was left standing here wanting my boyfriend to tell me it's going to be okay.

But will it?
