Our Last Chance (Camren)

Chapter 23

The next morning Camila woke up to find the bed empty.

Where was Lauren?

Okay no need for panic Camila. She thought to herself. She went downstairs it was Friday. Ofcourse Lauren went to work. Carlos was brought to school.

This was her chance to call her father. Call him out on his bullshit.

Suddenly their was a knock on the door. Hmm.. Usually people rang the doorbell. Whatever.

She went to open the door and before her stood a sad looking Harry?

What?

"Can I come in..?" He asked hesitantly.

"Ofcourse." Camila said without hesitation and let him in. They went into the kitchen as he sat on a chair.

"What happened?" Camila asked concerned. His green eyes met with hers and they were red.

Had he been crying?

"Why would you assume something happened? Maybe I just wanted to visit my best friend." He fake laughed. Camila knew him too well.

"Oh please. You barely ever call." She joked and then looked serious again as she spoke, "and your eyes.. they're dull and red. Something obviously happened."

He took a deep breath. "Louis left me." And with that he clenched his jaw and shut his eyes tightly. Camila assumed he did this to stop the tears from falling. She placed her petite hands on his big ones.

"Harry.. It's okay. Tell me everything."

He swallowed and when he opened his eyes he looked up, not wanting to cry in front of Camila.

"He said.. he said we weren't made for eachother. That it was just a stupid teenage passion we had at the time. It was never serious for him." His voice cracked. Camila couldn't believe what she heard. Louis and Harry? You mean the perfect couple? Whom she knew from so many years ago? The power couple?

Broke up.. Louis left? No, this was bullshit. Louis loved Harry immensely. He was always so serious about their relationship.

"I don't understand.." She sighed. He shook his head as if to say, he didn't aswell.

"How did this happen? Out of nowhere? Or like.." She asked him.

"We were planning on adopting children. He was so happy a month ago and suddenly last week all the doubts started. At first I thought he was just nervous. But last night.. everything changed. He said that everything we had was fun untill it lasted. That we were never something serious. That marrying me was his biggest regret... I didn't understand. He said I didn't need to. All I needed to know was that he was unhappy being with me. All I could do was set him free.."

He wiped his eyes. He was so devastated. Camila sat closer to him and rubbed his back.

"I can't believe Louis such an ass.. He never was like this.."

"I couldn't believe it either. I let him go. Let him be with someone who does make him happy." He sobbed a little.

"You made him happy, Harry. There's no doubt about that. I saw it everytime you were together." He gave her a small smile.

"You problably have your own problems with Lauren but I just needed to tell someone.. I needed comfort."

Camila quickly shook her head. He didn't need to feel guilty for coming here. "It's okay. I'm glad you came to me. I'll always help you. Me and Lauren have been good now for a while." She said smiling.
