misery | g.d.

Chapter 12

Cameron opens the door to his room, I see a balcony when I walked in. His room is spotless and fresh.

I hear the door close from behind me and he sighs, Cameron walks passed me and he leans forward. He looks down at all the people dancing.

I close my eyes and open them up again, they were burning. Not because of Cameron but because it's late I'm guessing and I need my sleep.

I walk towards him and lean as well, I'm next to him and he plays with his fingers.

"What do you want?" I ask annoyed.

"I just wanted to talk-"

"Cameron, stop, I don't know what you want to talk to me specifically when there is so many girls here at your party, and what happened in Sophomore year was shit"

"Gracie I'm sorry" he closes his eyes tight.

"Knock it off and-" before I can even finish speaking Cameron smashes his lips onto mine. He cups my jaw with his hand, while my other hand is on his shoulder.

I don't know this feeling, there are so many. I don't know if it's anger, sadness, happiness but I feel really messed up.

I don't know if I should even pull away or just stay. I'm starting to dislike this, so I pull away.

"Cameron" I take a deep breath. "I can't- do this right now, and I think it's not the right time to uh- yeah" I look down and step back.

"I'm sorry...again, is there any way I can make this up to you" he approaches me.

"You can figure it out yourself"

"Please give me a chance Gracie" he pleaded.

"We'll see" I mumbled.

It was silent, but I break it.

"I-" the door makes a creaking noise and I turn myself around to check who it is. No one, so I turn back facing Cameron.

"I can't Cameron, there are so many things occurring to me right now and I can't do this I'm sorry but...but I think you're not worth my time and I guess I'll just be broken into pieces again" I walk away.

"I love you Gracie, and I won't stop myself from winning you back"

"You never loved me Cameron, never, don't you remember sophomore year?! Because I did, I remembered perfectly fine, and so did you. I'll remind myself to never fucking see your face again, you had no idea how down I was."

"Gracie listen I-!"

"Don't say a fucking word"

"Yeah fine, go with Thompson for all I know! What if he uses you! You just fucking met the guy! oh! And what about Grayson?! I've heard tons of rumors about you too! And you think I wasn't shattered huh? I have feelings for you! And it's not my fault that you were broken as well!" He takes a deep breath. "You can consider me as a jerk, go ahead" He sighs.

I turn around and notice how hurt he was by the look on his face. I don't know if I was a bitch or I was telling the truth or speaking up. I know I only met Tom but I feel like I knew him for a good amount of time.

I'm leaning forward to Tom more than Cameron right now. Yet most girls that go through this situation, chooses the ones that hurt them most. For me that's opposite, because in the end of every book, it starts all over again.

Being shattered into complete pieces.

It just keeps repeating. At that moment I realized that if I'm going to love someone, I have to stay away from trouble.

I walk slowly towards Cameron as he stands there looking away into the distance. I give him a kiss on the cheek and he senses my presence.

"I'm- sorry Cameron" My voice was soft  and I leave the room.

It was a good decision. I think.

I walk back down the stairs and try to push the people that are in the way. I get out of the house leading me to the backyard where there is still more people.

I'm hoping Thompson hasn't left the bar, I can spend my last few hours with him tonight.

Well what a surprise, he's still here.

"Hey Thompson" I take a seat.

"Well hey baby cakes, Cameron didn't do shit to you right?" He asks me, his voice sounds concerned.

"No he didn't, it's nice that you care, so what have you been up too? While I was with Cameron?"

"Being a bar tender" he chuckles.

"Yeah besides that silly"

"Just wiping up these wet cups, I finished my job here and yeah it's late I should be leaving...but I can't leave until I get a little gift" he looks at me with a smirk.

"Mhm, I wonder whats that gift" I look at my nails then at him. He opens the gate and shakes his head with a smile across his face. He approaches me and gets a little closer for my comfort- but I like it.

"Baby cakes, I've been feeling down, I was wondering if you can make daddy happier again in bed this time" he whispers in my ear.

I place my finger on his lips. "Woah woah, slow down Tom, I need my rest, but I'll keep in touch with you" I wink and he smiles.

"Have a good night Gracie" he steps back and allows me to leave. I walk away and notice Cameron was staring at Thompson and I the whole time. He was jealous, such a pity.

I open the gate to exit Cameron's backyard, I walk down the driveway. I check on my phone as I walk home.

Three messages and five missed calls from Mell. I hope nothing happened to her, and I hope Ethan didn't do anything to her neither.

I sigh and put my phone away. I just kept walking.

What did you think? I know it's short  but aye, glad u enjoyed it. Cya :)
