It's Complicated... (Sequel to HELP; Cameron Dallas and Dolan twins fanfic)

Chapter 13

Cameron's POV

"Want to come over to my place?" I ask Skylar gently. She nods her head yes, and we both stand up to exit the diner. As we walk out the building, I can sense all the eyes watching us. I hold the door open for Skylar, then I go out. Finally, we can have a real conversation with 20 people listening.

"So what happened before I got there? Like why were people staring at us?" I question with a slight laugh. I look over at her as she walks by my side. Even the way she walks is perfect.

Skylar giggles a little before speaking. "Um, so basically I dropped Grayson's milkshake on purpose and he was really mad about it. Then we got into a huge fight and everyone was staring at us. The end," she pauses to look at me. "It's okay, you can laugh."

I try my best not guffaw at the story because it lowkey sounds really funny.

"That's unfortunate," I blurt out absentmindedly. I don't what to say. It's like when you see your crush and your mind completely stops. I guess that's what just happened to me. "So what do you want to do when we get home?" I ask trying to make this moment less awkward.

"Sleep," she answers and I laugh a little. "Why do you always look at me?" Skylar asks me, making eye contact.

"Because you're really pretty," I reply shyly.   Why am I so awkward? I then look down in embarrassment.

"Thank you," I hear her say. I look up to see her flashing that beautiful smile of hers. It makes me smile.

When we finally get to my house, we walk in to find Ethan sleeping on the couch. I was originally planning for Skylar to sleep there, so I guess I have to wake him up now.

I pat his back multiple times, but he won't move. I kneel down to his ear. "Sorry that I'm about to scream in your ear but ETHAN WAKE UP!" Which that, he jumps up quickly.

"What happened?!" he asks, looking completely confused and tired. "Is there like a fire or something?"

"No. Skylar wants to sleep there so I woke you up," I say laughing. He groans and stumbles up the stairs to his room. Once he's gone, I motion to the couch, signaling that she can sit down.

Skylar's POV

I ended up falling asleep on Cameron's couch for about 2 hours. I woke up crying from the worst nightmare I've had in a long time. My dad had broken into the house again while I was sleeping, and kidnapped me. He drove me back to his creepy house and began playing with my hair and just touching me. I was terrified, and I don't feel comfortable anymore.

The first thing I think to do is text Cameron. I doubt he's still a wake, but you never know.

S: Cam?

S: Are you there?

C: For you, always

C: why are you awake

S: I had a really bad dream

S: can you come downstairs?

C: sure

I put my phone down and wait for Cameron to come downstairs. I really do like Cam, but just as a friend. The only person I love is Grayson. If there was something that I could tell him, it would be that I'm sorry for everything. And that I still over him no matter what happens. But does he even still like me? "I don't want anything to do with you" were the last words he said to me. What if he meant it?

Cameron careened down the stairs with his brown hair in a complete mess. He's not wearing a shirt, and it kind of makes me uncomfortable. I unmindfully stare at his bare chest as he sits in the nearby chair.
