-Cammie POV-
It's 3 AM and I haven't gotten any sleep. My eyes feel extremely heavy but I can't go to bed knowing that Shannon might hate me. I just remembered I got her number! I should text her. Or will it seem too desperate? I don't know what to do. I text Shannon anyway.
3:49 AM
Cam- Hey, are you up?No response...
She must be asleep. I'm going to get some sleep because if I don't I know I won't wake up in the morning. I wake up to my brother singing in the shower at 6 AM. My eyes are giving up. I check my phone to see if Shannon texted back, nope. Nothing. She's probably not awake yet. I feel horrible. I'm going to text Ashley to see if she wants to get breakfast before school. Let me tell you about Ashley. Ashley is the most hipster girl I've met. She has similar likes to mine and she's a sweetheart. She's short, with braces, has a great personality and never fails to make me laugh. This girl is best friend material! She's so laid back and could care less about what people have to say about her.
Cammie-Hey Ash, let's go get some breakfast before school?
Ashley-Yeah of course! I'll be outside of your house in 15 minutes.
Cammie-Cool. I'll be waiting!
I feel my phone vibrate and I feel my heart skip a beat thinking it's Shannon. But it's Ashley saying she's outside. The car ride to Starbucks was silent. I can't help but stop thinking about Shannon. She's beautiful. She's one of the nicest people I've ever met. What if she didn't like me and felt awkward about by the rose? What if I just assumed she was gay? I mean I heard her talking to Ally about something similar. Something about Kristen Stewart or something and her saying she was a lesbian. I might've heard wrong though. I'm overthinking this. Now that I remember, I have first period with her and I have the chance to talk to her. I walk in and see her sitting alone with her earbuds in. I choose not to bother her and I sit somewhere else. If she's on her phone she probably saw my message. I text her again.
Cammie-Hey, are you okay?No response.
I noticed from the corner of my eye that she looked at me and just rolled her eyes. What did I do? I messed up so bad. We got dismissed and I couldn't hear a word the teacher said. I was too focused on Shannon. Shannon left as soon as the bell rung and I didn't get a chance to talk to her. I walked to class and I couldn't get my mind off Shannon. I lost her between all of the people walking through the hall. When I reach the English hallway, I see Shannon talking with another girl and she looks extremely happy. Suddenly, I feel my heart drop to my stomach and I feel an arm around my shoulder. It's Ashley. "You okay?" she asks. "Umm, yeah I'm fine." I respond. "Alright, let's head to class." She says. I get a text during class and it's Ashley.
Ashley-You really don't look okay. Let's go to lunch after class. My boyfriend wants to go to In-n-out. He'll pay.
Cammie-Sure, let's go.I wait for Ashley at the entrance of the classroom while she gets her stuff. As we're walking out, I see Shannon and Ally walking not even acknowledging my existence. I'm pretty sure she saw me. I walk with Ashley to the entrance of the school and we wait for her boyfriend.
-Shannon POV-
Cammie keeps texting me and it's honestly pissing me off. If I ignore her, I'm pretty sure it means I really don't want to talk to her but she continues to insist. I finally text her back.
Shannon-You need something? I'm pretty busy.
Cammie-I was just wondering if you're okay.
Shannon-Never better. Gotta go.She should know that I don't want to talk to her. Why does she keep bothering me? I don't know why I'm acting like this. She just makes things complicated. I barely know the girl and she's driving me insane. I walk towards the table with Ally and we find Jay making out with some girl. We notice it's Natasha, the cheer teams captain. Everyone hates her. "We're going to McDonalds, if you'd rather eat that than a burger then suit yourself." Ally says a little mad. He gestures a thumbs up and we walk away. As we're walking out, Ally and I are talking about whether or not Bush did 9/11. Ally is the weirdest person I know but I love her. I wouldn't want anyone else as a best friend. I see Cammie with that girl again and I feel my blood boil. Why am I so jealous? I shouldn't even care. I walk away with Ally and I begin to play Idfc by Blackbear. "Someone's heartbroken, eh?" I hear Ally say trying to sound Canadian. "Nah haha, I just pressed shuffle on my Spotify." I laugh. I don't remember shuffling my music. It must've been subconsciously. We head back to school and as I walk in to the locker room, Cammie is there talking to a cheerleader asking when tryouts are. I put on my softball gear and head out. I hear footsteps behind me. "Shannon, wait!" I hear someone yell. It's Cammie. "What?" I turn around. Cammie suddenly grabs my face and kisses me. I can't help but kiss back. There's no way to explain the kiss. It was just so passionate. Her lips are perfect.
-Cammie POV-
So I just did something crazy. I kissed the one and only Shannon Beveridge. The school's math geek and softball all-star. Her lips were so soft. She still seemed pretty mad but she kissed back which might be a good sign. I'm not currently looking for a relationship though. Back in Pittsburgh, I had a girlfriend that I had to break up with when I moved here. So relationships are a huge no no for me now. My day was pretty shitty today. I didn't get to talk to Shannon because she was upset. Ashley's boyfriend, Sergio, was really nice though. He's the biggest nerd I've met aside from Shannon. I love his style too. It's like him and Ashley were meant for each other. I also met another girl, Stevie. She is so cool and gay too! I think I'm really going to like LA, people are so accepting and know how to mind their own business. I get a text from Shannon and my phone suddenly turns off. Fuck! I left my phone charger in my mom's car and she won't be coming home tonight!!
