Unconditionally

18-Camille Jackson

Michael

My cousin. My fucking cousin was standing in the doorway. "How are you here Cami?" I ask loosening my grip on Nessas hand.

She smiles. "I heard you were In distress Mike." Her smiles softens when her eyes lay on Nessa. "And someone got hurt." She says walking over to us. I stand up not letting go of Nessas hand.

Camille stands in front of her. Examining her from head to toe. "Mind if I introduce myself?" She asks. I nod slightly as she takes Vanessa's other hand.

"Hello. I'm Camille. Mikes Cousin." She giggles. "I hope you wake up
Soon. I don't know what Michael will do without you in his life."  She says kissing her hand.

She lets Vanessa go as I take her hand again.

Janet just stands and glares at Camille, ushers her out of the room.

JANET

I push Camille into the hallway of the hospital as run my hands through my hair.

"Why are you here Camille?" She asks.
Camille leans against the wall and eyes me.

"Is it such a crime I want to visit my dear cousins, Jan?" She smiles.

"Yes actually. You always appear when Michael has a new female in his life." I say stating the obvious. For a 16 year old. And i hate to say this... but Camille has a crush on Michael.

And I know. He is her cousin. But only by marriage by our aunt and uncle. She Is not related to us by blood.

"How the hell did you find out about Vanessa?" I ask.

She shrugs. "You realize I'm working in forensics right now in a college level class Jan? I can find people with a simple touch of my finger." She smirks.

I roll my eyes. "I know you still have a crush on Michael Camille." I state the obvious. She guffaws."wow! Someone did her homework." She says clapping her hands together.

"Obviously I still like Michael, Janet That's why I'm here." She confesses.

"Why did Auntie Tia and Uncle Stephen let you come to Gary by yourself?" I ask.

"They are too busy cheating on eachother to worry about me anymore." She sighs with sarcasm.

Our aunt and uncle weren't in a healthy relationship. My uncle Stephen claimed once that Camille wasn't even his.

It's hard to understand why they were still married. They hate eachother.

Somehow I feel bad for Camille...

Yet again she has a crush on her cousin.

"Just keep your distance Cami. Michael is in his head right now."

"Why?" She asks. "His dear cousin has come back and he didn't even look at me." She whines.

"Camille. That girl in there is the one Michael loves." I start. "He isn't interested."

"Oh please." She starts "we aren't even related technically."

"Still. You're only family in his eyes." I get up in her space putting a finger in her face.

"If you even touch Michael in some sexual way, you're going to lose your hands." I threaten under my breath.

She puts her finger on my chest pushing me away from her. "Don't touch me. You will see soon. Michael will love me." She smiles. "And leave that little cunt, who can't even pleasure him." She giggles.

Oh god I wanted to slap the shit out of her and send her back to where she came from.

But Michael would just stress even more than he already is. His girlfriend is in a coma for Christ sake.

She walks her walk back into the hospital room putting on her fake ass worried look as I cross my arms and shake my head.

She pulls Michael a hug and looks at me through the window.

She smiles at me and bites her lip.

And then flips me off.
