Thief (n.g.)

Chapter 33

Cameron's POV

I went to the bar instead of getting cigarettes. Great idea right? It was  the only place I could think to go. I don't think I was in love with Babe, it's just I had so much planned in my head of being with her, I guess it just really sucked she turned me down.

When I enter, a ball of smoke slaps me in the face. This isn't really a legal place, you can basically do whatever you want, but it's small so not many people know about it, so not much happens.

“Cameron! How are you Hon' I haven't seen you in such a long time!" Judy says. She's worked here a while, she's an older women, but she's cool.

“Hey Judy." I force a smile.

“Well, this time your not with your animal crew and your bickering wife," She was talking about Nash. “So I assume something's going down. Fill me in." Her raspy voice from smoking so much says. She's warned me so many times about smoking and how I'll end up just like her.

“I think I'm just a little confused about stuff goin on at home." I shrug sitting in the round seat.

“What your brothers do now? Or was it Tasia this time? Or could it have been the perfect Brenna gone bad?" She teases lightning the mood.

“No," I chuckle lightly. “I'm still waiting for that day to come myself. It's not any of my siblings actually, well kind of Nash."

She nods as she starts to clean a glass cup.

I explain to her the situation.

“Well what she look like?"

“Gorgeous. She has this thick brown curly hair. Brown eyes, and I love her  freckles."

“Well honey, I don't want to tell you to go against your brother, but, does he  really deserve her more than you? I mean come on, after Beth, I can understand he was broken, but after that all happen, he became an ass. Sleeping with any girl, not caring about anyone."

“He's gotten better though. That's the thing. Ever since Babe's been around, he's talking to everyone in the house more. He's actually always cared about everyone in the house, he's just had an odd way of showing it. He's at home more."

“Oh, by the way, did you ever find out where he was sneaking off to at night?" She leans over the counter.

“Well, no."

“Is he still going?"

“I think, I'm not sure, but not nearly as often."

“Hmm." She says as if she were thinking. “I can't figure him out."

“I'm with him more than any other person, and I can't figure him out my God damn self!" I say throwing my hands in the air.

Our convention goes on for about an hour. And I leave.

When I go home Matt is up with Hayes and Shawn watching TV. Carter is asleep on the couch.

  “Don't stay up to late you guys." I tell them.

I go upstairs and see the light from the girls room glow.

I tap on the door.

I was surprised to hear Brenna's voice inviting me in. Brenna is always asleep and Tasia's up. But when I open to door I see their roles have switched.

“You alright?" I ask.

“I think I should be asking you that question." She says holding a nail paint cap in her hand.
