New York.

We're still in New York, all living in my dad's old house. Me, Romeo and Francesca because I convinced her to stay. Katlin went to Dublin to visit her family.

After my dad's death, Jake went to my house in LA with my mom. I miss them.

I left my room and walked down the stairs and sat on the couch next to Francesca.

"What are you doing ?" I asked placing my arm over her shoulders.

"Just watching TV." She replied looking at me smiling.

I started paying attention to the show and tried to reach to the remote to change the channel.

"Don't change the channel." She said slapping my hand.

"I don't want to see this show."

"But I was watching TV first, remember the rules. And besides that I wanna see you."

The show was about the event in LA and I don't feel comfortable. I don't like to see me on TV, it's just awkward.

And besides that, I don't want to see her.

"What are you watching ?" Romeo asked as he walked next to us. "Oh, isn't that your ex-girlfriend ?"

He pointed to the television and I immediately looked.

Mixed emotions. Her cute laugh and smile, I miss it but I don't want to. I don't hate her, I don't hate her at all but I feel like she's part of the past and I want to leave the past.

"What ?" Francesca asked confused. "No, that's Breanna Jordan, owner of a fashion magazine."

"Exactly." He said sitting down. "I remember her name was Breanna. Damn, she looks even hotter now."

I glared at him and he gave me an apologetic smile.

"Sorry..." He mouthed.

"Cameron...is he serious ?" She asked trying to look me in the eyes but I looked away.

"Yes...we dated two years and half ago or so."

"Wow...but...wow...I'm going upstairs if you don't mind." She said getting up and started walking.

"Wait." I said following her upstairs. "Can you just wait ?"

"I'm so sorry Cameron...I'm just stupid."

"No you're not." I said grabbing her wrist to stop her.

"Cameron, I thought you liked me. I thought I had a chance. All those paintings...You kept painting her, during these last two years. You're not over her."

"I am!"

"Oh come on Cam. Don't lie to yourself."

"Seriously Francesca, I am...She's part of the past and you're possibly part of the future."

"I don't believe you." She replied shaking her head.

"You have to."

"How?" She asked looking me in the eyes.

I released her wrist and placed my hand on her check. I leaned in and slowly kissed her. I felt her tense but she immediately kissed back.

I felt my phone vibrating inside my pocket and had to pull away. I took it off my pocket and opened the text. I rolled my eyes and placed it inside again.

"I have to go somewhere." I said and she nodded bitting her lip.

I walked downstairs and picked my car keys from the coffee table.

"Cameron, I'm sorry for..."

"It's okay Romeo... I have to go..." I quickly said before walking outside.

I got inside my car and started driving. After a while, I parked my car and waited for him, basically in the middle of nowhere.

I saw his car by far and he parked next to mine. He opened the car's door already smirking.

"Cameron, Cameron, Cameron." He said approaching to me. "Long time no see, right ?"

"And I didn't miss you at all Kian."

"Oh too bad...I'm sorry I didn't reply to your text yesterday, I was busy as you can imagine."

"Do you really like her Kian ?"

"She's hot and nice."

"I asked you if you like her Kian." I said slowly trying to stay calm.

"Well...she's okay..."

I grabbed the collar of his shirt and pushed him against his car.

"What are you doing to her?" I asked, feeling my blood boiling.

"Chill dude. I'm just having fun." He said smirking.

"You can't just have fun with her, don't hurt her."

"Oh stop being an idiot." He said grabbing my wrists, making me release his shirt. "You were the one who hurt her the most. Don't act like an angel now. Remember what you did to me?"

"I had no idea Kian."

"You knew I liked her!"

"I didn't know, how many times do I need to tell you this. It wasn't my fault and that was ages ago, get over it."

"I don't fucking care Cameron! You knew I liked her but she wanted you, now I know you like Breanna but she wants me. Karma is a bitch, deal with it."

"I can't believe this...we were like best friends..."

"But now I have your girl and there's nothing you can do about it."

"She's not my girl anymore."

"I know and let me tell you, you were a lucky guy because she's bomb as fuck...especially during sex."

I just couldn't take it anymore and had to punch him.

"Don't talk about her like that."

"You can punch me, that's not gonna make her go back to you." He said placing his hand over his jawline.

"Fuck you Kian." I said and then turned away. I got inside my car and drove back home.
