True Blue (Canterwood Crest)

Chapter 13 - Wait what? Shock x2

I'm dreaming, luminous emerald green grass sways, while a yummy colour of chocolate branches gently touch the ground. I hear my voice, someone calling me far in the distance.

"Camber...." It says softly, so softly I can hardly hear it. It gets louder and louder until...I realize I'm being shaken by something. And looking closely, that something is Beau Hart.

"Camber are you ok?" He asks. I nod slowly,

"I just fell asleep in Chance's pen." Suddenly I notice how close we are, "I'm fine." I say, pulling back away from Beau, he looks amused by my awkwardness. I glare at him and stand up. Chance stares and makes his way over slowly. Beau reaches his hand out and Chance sniffs it. Suddenly Beau lifts his other arm up fast as lightning getting ready to pat him. Chance surprised and startled, pins his ears and snaps.
"Stupid horse!" Beau yells, Chance gallops into a corner and Beau raises his arm threateningly and starting to walk towards Chance.

"Get away from my horse!" I hiss, seething. Beau looks back, glances at Chance then walks out of the ring, not saying goodbye. I slowly walk about two meters towards Chance then sit down and fiddle with the grass. Eventually he comes to investigate me and then calms down at my slow touch on his neck, I stroke him gently. "I'll never hurt you boy, I promise." I whisper over and over into his fluffy ear.

_/ \_ Clarke

I'm sitting in a booth at The Cafe. Tom has gone to buy us drinks. Ever since Cami set us up we've been getting closer and closer. When we first talked, we went to The Cafe. He was sweet and kind and smart. He told me he'd liked me for a long time. That I was pretty, then when I'd blushed and told him I liked him too, he asked me out. I'd accepted, and since we've been getting closer. His thick brown hair he was a swimmer, so the tips of his hair were lighter from all the chlorine.  Few freckles and large hazel eyes made you want to know him better. He had a cute slanting grin that showed dimples in cheeks. He was a player. I could tell. I didn't want to let him in too close. Because he'd hurt me, but I was getting closer to him. He sat down in the seat and handed me my cup. Suddenly his phone buzzed and he glanced at it.

"I'm sorry Cla...I've gotta go." He'd been doing this all week. We'd get together then disappear. But he'd invited Cami and I to the party tonight. It was in his and his friends' room.

xXx

We walked into the party, it was wild. Camber told me she was going to grab us a drink, I asked for a Diet Coke and then told her I was going to go to the toilet. I knocked on the door. No reply...but I heard something in there, so I knocked again. Still no answer. Curious I opened the door. Shock overcame me, I was humiliated. Sabrina was kissing him, Sabrina was kissing Tom. They broke apart, Tom glanced over his shoulder.

"Oh, it's just Clarke." He smirked nastily and they both laughed evilly.

"Oh Clarke, I'm sorry, you actually thought a guy like Tom would be interested in you!" She laughed again, I felt tears prick. No. No, I would not cry in front of them.

I put on my signature smirk. "You thought I liked you?" I calmed myself, "bonk...wrong! It's called acting. You are a bloody idiot." Suddenly warm arms wrapped around me.

A voice that could melt marshmallows said, "my girlfriend is a better actor than you are you stupid moron." He leant down and whispered in my ear, "go along with it..."

"You see, never play a game that you can be beaten in, otherwise it's no fun." I said, giving an evil laugh. Take that you stupid populars.

They both looked shocked. Suddenly Sabrina stormed out of the bathroom and Tom followed. Saying threateningly to the strange guy.

"Watch your back." Then walking ahead. I gave a celebratory squeal and danced my happy dance.

Suddenly remembering the guy I turned around. A cute guy smiled at me.

"I'm Clarke, thanks for helping me..."

"Don't worry, I heard the whole thing...I'm Jason." He chuckled, "I'm new so I knew they couldn't argue.

Clarke smiled to herself..."I want you to meet my friend."

_/ \_ Camber

Camber smiled at everyone as she went into the cooler box and grabbed two drinks, Diet Coke for Clara and water for her. Fr mince now at Canterwood she was happy. An arm pulled her then spun her.
"Tanner! I'm carrying a coke, and if you are not careful this coke will be over your head!" I scowl playfully.

He laughs and then grabs the drinks plops them on a table and drags me to the floor.
"No, noway! Not gonna happen." I start.

"Oh save it, we're going to dance whether you like it or not!" I scowled again.

We danced around. Our hands clapping, laughing our heads off. We stopped for a while and grabbed something to drink, then a quick snack. Suddenly a song came on. 'How deep is your love.' I screamed and dragged Tanner onto the floor as the chorus started. "A-a-a ooooo! A-a-a oooo! A-a-a oo-ooo How deep is your love?!"

I slumped down on a couch, thinking we should really ask our matron if we could do this in our common room!

I pulled my knees up and hugged them, leaning my head on them. Exhausted. Suddenly I remembered Clarke, she had gone to the toilet at least ten to fifteen minutes ago...standing up in panic I see Tom and Sabrina on a couch, holding hands. Oh flip...if she saw them?

Suddenly a crash into a...wall? Looking up I see a face, a face I thought I'd never see again.

"I'm sorry for eating your brownies Cami..." I stare at him my mouth gap in, Clarke asks him how I know him...

All I can say is, "Jase?"

***Cliffhanger!!! I'm nasty, what do you think. Beau being horrid? Tom and Sabrina? Jase is back? Weren't expecting that were you?

Let me know what you thought!

Byeeee!
