Look After You {Sequel To Lost In Stereo}

Chapter Three-Girlfriend

"The world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are." -Sirius Black, Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix

The last time I snuck out I did it by jumping out my bedroom window. This time I went downstairs as quietly as I could, my phone and house keys in my pocket.

I somehow remembered exactly where Cam's house was, but once you were on the street it was hard to miss.

The familiar smell of smoke and alcohol filled my nose as I stepped up the concrete stairs, walking into the house. It's not like be around people who were smoking was weird, dad had smoked like twice when I was younger, and Zayn did occasionally. But at least that wasn't illegal...

"Tommo."

I snapped my head around, watching as Cam walked towards me slightly smirking.

"Roth." I replied. "I thought we were on first name basest now?"

"Well..." Cam trailed off. "That was when you were Zach's girl."

"Zach's girl?"

"You guys were dating or whatever... Now you guys aren't even communicating."

"Well apparently he's already over me."

"He's not. I know Zach, he's a lot of things but over you isn't one of them."

I bit my lip as Cam looked away from me. I knew Cam had turned sixteen the other day, which somehow made this awkward. I was turning fourteen in three months, but right now I was thirteen standing with a sixteen year old boy.

God dad would skits about that. Even without knowing people were passing around bottles of vodka.

"You ever drank before?" Cam asked. The question took me by surprise, so I just stared at him in confusion. Of course I'd never had any sort of alcohol before. Maybe once dad had let me taste his beer but other than that never.

"Never." I admitted.

"Oh thank god. I was feeling really awkward 'cause people are drinking here and I don't drink, never have and I felt like I'd be the only sober person here."

"I'm thirteen. Of course I'd never drink."

"You snuck out of your house to come here what was I meant to think?"

"That even though I lack common sense I'm not stupid." I said curtly. "Besides, if I went home smelling like alcohol my dad would know I snuck out at eleven o'clock at night. And then I'd be in more shit than I already am."

"Have you ever though of actually not getting in shit with your parents?" Can replied leaning against the wall as I frowned.

"No. Me and my dad have never really gotten along that well so..." I trailed off, biting my lip before pulling my phone from my pocket.

"What about your mum?"

"Dead."

"Oh... Sorry... I forgot..."

"Sometimes I do too."

"Corey's in the living room if you want to see him..."

"Is Zach here...?"

Cam smirked. "Course he is. The point of the party was we're going on X factor babe."

"Yeah don't call me babe..." I replied slightly laughing.

"Zach did."

"Zach was my boyfriend. You're my... You're Cam."

Cam just continued smirking. "And what a very good Cam I am."
