Not What I Thought You'd Be | Shawn Mendes ~ Camila Cabello (ON HOLD)

~ Chapter Nineteen ~

RECAP FROM CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

Luke's smile instantly drops, when I come into full view. He eyes me up and down and his mouth agapes a little as he takes in my appearance, "Liking the view?" I smirk. His face fell.

He looks away and scratches the back of his neck, "What! N-no-" he says as he fumbles with the door keys "-I was just admiring my reflection from your eyes."

...

I will not lose my mind.

He did not just say that, I dressed up in fifteen minutes. And got no compliments... even from Luke.

Cringe.

Breathing out slightly, controlling my lovely temper "Sure, keep saying that." I say while making my way towards the kitchen. Turning around, grinning victoriously when I see Luke's full body "Oh and take care of that" I say then point towards his bulge.

Awkward.

For him.

His face flushes completely, all the color draining out "Cami! You are so mean!" he huffs then opens the door.

Daniel comes in with boxes of margarita pizza and gives Luke a confused look. "Is everything alright?"

"Everything is absolutely perfect except for..." I say and point at Luke's still visible bulge, "...that beautiful thing."

"UGH! You are so mean!" Luke shouts, turning to Daniel, "I'll come down in a bit. I-uh- got some business to handle." He says with his voice filled with urgency as he runs off to the bathroom asDaniel and I burst out laughing.    

And now the new chapter:

~ Camila's POV ~

//PAST\\

December 24th, 2012 (Same Day: Christmas Eve, The day of the Party)

This house is completely crowded.

Every single space from the corners of this house are filled with drunk teenagers grinding on each other, without a care in the world. People started arriving around thirty minutes ago after nine and went straight to the kitchen where all the beer cans and cups were kept away from sight. I swivel through the crowd, bumping onto drink teenagers to find Sky.

"Camila!" Someone shouts my name, "Cami-" followed by a loud thump. I quickly turn around to find Cole sprawled across the floor, rubbing his head, "Ow, that hurt." He says when he catches me looking at him and pouts.

I rush to him while laughing, "Aww my little baby, are you okay?" I coo.

"Cole pouts even harder, "Shut up, Cami! I fell because of you"

I look at him and scoff, "So now you are blaming me for you being blind?" I say and he gives me a dumb look.

"Anyways, I wanted to ask if you wanted to dance since I remembered this was your favorite song from when we dated..."

I just realized, they are playing I like it like that by Hot Chelle Rae. It has been so long since I heard this song, I missed it. It lifted my mood instantly.

"Yeah, let's go dance," I smile fondly at him as he stands up, "I missed this song."

Cole has been a tremendous help recently. I know he made some mistakes but I overlooked them and we got very close. He really cares for me and has been trying to rectify his mistakes since we started talking again and I really appreciate it. Cole has been very forceful since the beginning, when we started dating and when he tried to kiss me in the beginning of the school year but he has changed. Forgiving him made me feel like a w eight has been lifted off my chest.

We both just smile as he takes my hand in his and leads me to the dance floor.

Cole lets go of my hand and starts doing the chicken dance and I cringe, "Come on, Cami, I know those funky moves are hiding there somewhere."

"Dude you are so cringy, I don't even know why I'm doing this!" I shout at Cole over the music so he can hear me.

Cole walks over to me, close. His feet right in front of mine, his body right in front of mine, his face right in front of mine as his pupils dilate, looking at me. His green eyes intensely stare at my brown, he bites his lip, "I don't why you agreed to dance but I know I asked you to dance because..." He breaks away from the trance and stops like he finally realized something, steps back, "...I'm sorry, I don't know what's gotten into me." and he runs off in the direction of the main doors.

Cole runs past the mains doors, leaving me completely baffled. What just happened? What did he want to say? I have so many questions in my mind right now but I do not have time to think about them before Cole runs away. I should find out. I bolt across the room, trying to reach the main doors as I bump into many drunk teenagers holding beer cups. Stepping outside, I instantly look around the front yard for Cole and I see him crouched down, his hands raking through his hair. I walk over to him, kneel and wrap my arms around him from behind as he freezes but instantly stands up. Pulls me up with him and wraps his arms around me and holds me tight, I stand still...

I have no clue whatsoever on what is going on at this moment but I know, I feel Cole needs me so I give in. I go on my tippy toes and wrap my arms around his neck as his grip tightens and he sighs.

He sighs like he is finally relaxed.

He sighs like there is no other place he would be.

I do not know how long we stood there, wrapped in each other's arms but it's been a very long time when he finally loosens his grip and looks at me with such intense need. What happened to him? I do not find it in me to ask him anything right now but I know I have to. The moonlight reflecting off on us, the dimnesss of this atmosphere changes the mood between us.

I stare back at him for a few seconds, "Cole, what's wro-" He puts his index finger on my lips to stop me from speaking. The moonlight shines against Cole's face, darkening his feature in the dimness of the light.

"Not now, Cami." He says as he removes his fingers and leans in, replacing it with his soft pink lips.

I don't know what to do... this is all such a shock to me. I do not know what is going on at this moment, but I let go. I let go and move my lips against his lips. His mouth was so warm, the caress of his lips softer than she could have imagined. He tasted tentatively with his tongue. Cole suddenly jumped away like he had been burned and started walking back and forth on the grass.

"I am so sorry, Cami, I got so lost in the moment," He babbles, looking genuinely worried, "I promise I will make it up to you, I am so sorry."

"It's okay, Cole" I say, not sure how to react. I look at the ground, avoiding meeting his eyes.

"I am so sorry." He says in a strangled voice.

I lift my head up to look at his eyes, "No, don't apolo-" I stop and look at the person behind Cole. Standing there, witnessing this.

Shawn.
