Summer love

Chapter 1

Cameron. My best friend as of 11 years. We just got on our summer break yesterday. I've been sitting in bed the whole day watching Netflix, and eating ice cream. Shit. I need to get my summer body in place. I guess I can go to the gym to work out tonight... I locked my eyes on the tv. It was a show about how to handle a proper/healthy relationship. Of course, there were the what not to do parts,  which were absolutely hilarious. All of my friends can relate to that, but not me. You see, I never had time for boys! I was always so focused on my studies. I really need to get into Harvard. It's my dream. Cameron's going to Yale. He got his letter this morning. I'm so happy for him! But, we won't get to see each other often... I mean usually I would just accept the fact that I'm gonna make new best friends in university anyways, but... Cameron's different. He's like my brother. If we don't talk at all for like, a day... he gets so jealous. We basically need each other. I love him. I mean--not like that! I love him like a brother. Nothing more. If I did, it would ruin our friendship. I don't want that to happen. I'm sure he thinks of it like that too. I got up off of my bed, and got dressed. It's 2:00 pm, and I'm still in my pyjamas. That's teenagers for you. I still can't believe we graduated grade 12! For the yearbook picture, I did half a heart, and Cameron did the other half. People thought we were dating, and it made me feel really in-comfortable. They know we don't think of each other like that. My good friend Chelsea thinks we'd be a cute couple, but I think wrong. I applied my makeup. Mascara, foundation, condenser, concealer, hair straighter, lipstick, and blush. Perfect! Now I'm ready to go public. I walked to the "23rd street café". My favourite café. That's where me and Cameron used to go for lunch during high school. Shit! I forgot to call Cameron this morning! I threw out my phone, and almost dropped it. I called Cameron right away, not seeing his text. It went straight to voicemail. That's strange... Cameron's phone is never dead, or fully turned off. Maybe he's somewhere with no reception. I looked at the text he sent me. "Hey Jules... just got out of work. I need to tell you something... café 2:30." It said. I always found it sweet that he called me Jules. I got that name from him when we were 12. We were laying down on the grass gazing up at the sky, and he saw a cloud that looked like a Jewel. He said it reminded it of me, because I was so precious, and he will cherish me forever, and ever since, he's called me that. I remember that day perfectly... Shit! I have to be at the café in 5 minutes! I ran to the café, like my life depended on it. The café was empty, except for a man sitting at a table in the back. I couldn't see Cameron anywhere. I checked my watch. "2.32". It read. I was confused. I was only 2 minutes late... Cameron always waits for me. He couldn't have changed in a day... could he? I sat down at a high table overlooking the street. No sign of his car anywhere. I waited half and hour, and then I gave up. "Jane... did Cameron come in here?" I asked the cashier. She was a good friend of mine, since I'd come to the café like... everyday. Jane absolutely adored us. She shrugged. I tried calling Cameron again. No answer. Just then, a baby pink stretch limo pulled up in front of the café. I was in awe. Just then, Cameron got out of the limo. He smiled at me, holding a sign. "Ride with me?" It read, with a big red heart. I was crying of happiness and joy. It was the cutest and most thoughtful thing ever. I ran out of the café, my legs feeling limp. I leaped into his arms. He hugged me so tight. I always felt safe around him. He took me by the hand and pulled me into the limo. It was so romantic! He put on my favourite song, poured me a Piña Colada, and we were off. It was everything a girl could dream of. I couldn't wish for anything else. Just being with him was all I needed. His smile was priceless. He gave me a cute, warm smile, and I giggled. He then put his arm around me. I couldn't stop blushing! He was my bestest friend.
