Nothing lasts forever

Re-appearing act

I woke up to a tingling sensation on my neck. "What are you doing Cameron?", I yawned. "Well I was watching you sleep for a while and you looked so peaceful so I -", I cut him off, "had to disturb the peace didn't you". He grinned, "yep". "You absolute dickhead. It's 5 o clock in the morning, why you up?", I asked stroking his waves. "I had a nightmare and I need reassurance please", he said laying on my chest. "What was it about?". "In the dream you left me. We were getting married and as you were walking down the aisle you spotted Isiah and you both seemed lost in your own world and next thing you know you guys have run off with each other leaving me alone, please don't leave me alone, I want you, I need you", he wouldn't let go me and was slightly shaking. "You're really scared aren't you?", I asked him but he stayed silent nodded his head. "I'm not going anywhere Cameron, okay. Whether what we have works or not I'll be around.", I stroked his hands, letting him know I meant it. "Promise?" "I don't want to make a promise I can't keep". He sighed, "why can't you promise?". "Because nothing lasts forever. Eventually you're going to move on, you won't need me around forever", I held onto his face looking him in the eyes, "you need to understand that". He held onto my hands, "just promise to be there when I need you then", "I promise as long as you promise the same", I smiled. "I promise", he kissed me slowly and passionately. "You're so beautiful", he randomly said, "am I?", he sat up, "you honestly are. Inside and out and nowadays that's hard to find", "I love you Cameron, I honestly truly mean it". His face lit up like a kid who had been told they're going to Disney Land. "I love you too". It was like at that moment everything was perfect, the traffic outside was calm, the wind wasn't so harsh, our breathing was synced and his heart beat raced just like mine. "You gonna go to sleep now?", he stared at me like I was crazy, "hell no, you just told me you loved me, I'm too excited", he would not stop smiling. "You're so silly", his smile was genuinely contagious. "Look man you're turning me into a softie and shit I ain't never fell this hard for a girl", he rubbed his head looking at me.

It was coming up to around 1pm when I woke up in Cameron's arms. I attempted to slyly slide out of bed without waking him. I went downstairs to see freshly made waffles and various fruits laid out. Jermaine and I will be back soon see ya xxx Alyssia. The note read. "Baby how long you been up?", Cameron said in his husky morning voice, "not that long, you want waffles and fruit, there should be whip cream in the fridge", I said fixing myself a plate. "You know I'm still gassed that you love me", he grinned hugging me from behind, "can we just stay in today please", I pouted. "Your house or mine?", he asked, "yours please".

"I haven't been to your house in ages", I said looking at the skyline view from his balcony. "The last time you came here you were with Isiah".

"Ow Isiah, stop biting me", I laughed. "No I'm leaving my mark to let all these niggas know you're mine", he said still leaving hickey's on my neck. "But we're not even dating yet", I frowned pushing him away, "we will though, eventually". "Whatever", I got up from Cameron's couch. "I like you though, a lot", he held my hand, "but not enough to commit?". Cameron entered the room, "you guys okay? You look stressed", he said sitting in-between us. "Everything's good", I sighed.

"Tiana you okay? You kinda just zoned out for a minute". "I'm good baby, all good". We were huddled up on the couch until Cameron's doorbell rang. He got up to go answer it and I heard hushed voices; he seemed to be there for a while so I decided to see if he was okay. "Cameron baby who's at the door?", I said hugging him from behind. "Oh shit, so your snapchat wasn't lying you are dating her", Isiah shouted. "Oh for fuck sake Isiah, why you here?", I sighed. "The real question is why you dating my homie?", he said coming up in my face. "Homie? Me and you ain't homies no more infact we barely were. You were always fake to me, I date who the fuck I want!", Cameron said pushing him away. "So this is how it's gonna be huh? Tiana I actually missed you I was gonna try put things right", Isiah said rubbing his neck. "So you're hurt?", I asked he looked down and nodded, "good I'm glad you're hurt, you've hurt me numerous times. Go to your hoes and stop worrying bout who I'm dating, goodbye", I said walking into the living room. "Yeah bye Isiah", Cameron laughed shutting the door. "You know I love you right", he scooped me up in his arms. "Nah I didn't know", "well let me show you", he smirked. I straddled him on the couch and I took off his wife beater leaving him shirtless. I raised my arms allowing him to take off top leaving me in my bra but just as I was about to kiss him the door bell rang again. "I'll get it this time", I sighed throwing throwing on one of Cameron's hoodies. "Tiana, I want you to choose who do you like best overall", Isiah asked, "be truthful". "I choose Cameron, now please go away you're interrupting something", I was about to close the door but he put his foot in the way. "I miss you though, TT please", he reached out for my hand but I stepped back, "don't call me that now goodbye".
I walked back to Cameron who was still on the couch absorbed to the television. "Sorry, it was just Isiah, now where were we", he smirked grabbing my waist.

"Did you use a condom?", I asked, he completely ignored me and started whistling, "You didn't use a condom!", my knees felt weak and I had to sit down, "I'm sorry baby, I'm kidding I did", he laughed. "You're not funny, why would joke about something like that", I punched his arm. "Just to see your reaction and by the looks of it you don't want to have my kids", it went silent for a while, "it's not that it's just I would like to have your kids just not right now", I stroked his face, "You gon be more than a girlfriend more than a baby mama, more than a wife, you're my soul mate", he kissed my forehead. "But nothing lasts forever", I said barely above a whisper, "But we're not nothing. We'll work against the odds and make it work".
