Cammie's P.O.V.
Chapter 9
6/15/16


It has been almost two months and school just ended yesterday. I was very glad that I was finally out of school. Since I had started uploading covers on youtube I have been getting a lot of recognition from a lot of people around school. Even though I was glad 8th grade was finally over and I would be going into High School in a few months. I was still upset Paige wasn't here, and I wasn't experiencing all of this with Paige. After getting my music career somewhere it seems as if Paige didn't want to be around me or talk to me. When we did talk it wasn't for very long and she was very short. I had only gone back to Maryland once, and when I did I didn't even hangout with Paige. She was apparently too busy so I decided to hangout with Marie. Since Paige hasn't been talking to me I have started to talk to Marie more but she was no Paige. Sure we had fun but it wasn't the same. I decided it was a good time to actually talk to Paige since it was summer and if there was something wrong I wouldn't have to worry about my problems in Maryland and my problems in Virginia. It would be too much, so I decided to talk to her today since I was going back to Maryland. We had agreed to hangout today since she wasn't busy hopefully I won't regret coming back.


When I am finally in Maryland my parents drop me off at Paige's house so we can hangout. When I knock on the door I am immediately greeted by Paige's mom.


"Oh Cammie! It's been so long since you've come over. We've missed you so much." She gushes.


"Yeah it's been so long. How are you?" I ask.


"Oh I've been good. I don't want to keep you for long, Paige is in her room." She says


"Okay thanks." I say.


I go up the stairs into Paige's room. When I enter she's laying on her bed on her phone.


"Hey." I say smiling at her.


She turns around and says, "Oh hi."


"Um what's up?" I ask.


"Nothing." she replies, looking anywhere but me.


"Paige why are you acting like this?" I ask fed up with her attitude.


"Like what?" She says rolling her eyes.


"Like this!" I exclaim.


"I'm not ACTING like anything." She said.


"Okay but you're not how you usually are. What did I do?" I ask.


"Ever since you've made your new friends you don't talk to me, you don't visit me. You didn't keep your promises Cam." She says.


"I try to talk to you and when I do it seems like you don't want to talk to me and the only reason why I would even visit Maryland anymore is to see my best friend. Lately I don't know what happened to her." I say.


"I'm right here." She tells me.


"Are you sure? You're not the same anymore. You've changed. A lot." I say.


"It's not like you haven't." She says.


"Oh yeah?" I say raising an eyebrow. "How?"


"You're all popular now and you have all these friends and no time for the people who have always been there for you." She says.


"Oh so I am the one who doesn't have time, remember when I visited and you said you were busy? Yeah you totally have time for me. You know I barley get to go to Maryland and when I do I go to see you." I tell her increasingly getting mad by the minute.


"What, no um." She stutters.


"Forget it I'm out of here." I say and walk out of her room. I run down the stairs making sure her mom doesn't see me before I dash to the door and leave as quickly as possible. Once I am outside I spring to the nearest bus stop which was a block over an call my parents.


"Cammie?" I hear my moms reassuring voice through the phone.


"Hey mom can you please pick me up?" I ask.


"Yeah sure. Is everything okay?" She asks.


"I'm fine can you just pick me up?" I ask again beginning to become more impatient.


"Okay where do you want me to pick you up?" She asks.


"The bus stop near Paige's house." I tell her quickly.


"Okay I will be there soon honey." She says and hangs up the phone.


While I am waiting for the bus I go on every social media I have and unfollow, unfriend, unsubscribe, etc. to anything that was Paige's. This included; Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Youtube, Musical.ly, YouNow, etc. I wasn't going to be petty and delete everything because even thought we aren't on good terms at the moment she was still once apart of my life and it is stupid to delete her out of my memories. Knowing Paige once she found out I had unfollowed her she would try to 1 up me and delete everything we had together. If she wanted to be petty about the situation then she can but I won't stoop down to her level. 


A few minutes later I see my moms car pull up to the bus stop. I quickly go in it and she drives off. 


"Are we going to go back home?" I ask.


"Yeah sure but we have to get your father." She says.


"Okay." I say.


I stare out the window and get lost into thought. Even though Paige and I had an amazing friendship it was overruled by her jealousy. I was going to have to talk about this with Ariel and Loren when I get back since they knew so much about her. Well they knew everything I told them about her which was a lot. When we pick up my dad I decide to nap for the reminder of the car ride.


Two hours later I am finally back home and making plans with Loren and Ariel to hangout tomorrow. We would be going to Loren's house and having a sleepover. I get ready for the sleepless night I am going to have since I took a nap in the car. I get my laptop and charger and decide to binge watch New Girl.
