Chapter 43: Part 1

2 Days Later

Meredith's POV

It was time. I loved Cameron and all, but I think it was time that we should spend some time apart. He was my whole heart and soul, but he seemed to get a bit attatched. We haven't spend a second apart for the past two days, and I didn't know what to do. I mean this has happened before, when he refused to leave my side, so he could be with me and tell me how much he loved me to death.

I didn't want to take a break because of him, not just because of him I should say, but because I keep getting threats from Stephanie. She really had a thing for Cam. And maybe, just maybe, they should get back together. I mean she did know him longer than I did, and she did seem to care for him and show more affection to him than I ever did, maybe they should be together.

Cameron and me just finished a small date, and we were walking back to the hotel. I had a good feeling I should tell him here and now. I had to tell him. 

I also got a call from the music school in Ireland which came to see my performance the day my life changed. They really liked my performance and the solo in it, and they wanted me to attend the school as soon as possible. I was going to miss my summer vacation, but it was going to be worth it. I was going to be going to my dream performing arts school, and I would be in my favorite country. What more could I ask for?

I got the call when Cameron and I were having lunch, and once I told him the news, he seemed happy for me, but he didn't seem to excited himself. Then again, how could I feel that way? I was going to be leaving him, and moving thousands of miles away from him. I didn't know why, but it seemed to me that I had many good reasons to take a hiatus with him, there weren't too many that said that I should stay with him.

"Babe?" I asked as were a couple of blocks away from the hotel. It was time.

"Yes Princess?" he said with his sweet voice. Ugh, why did he have to do this to me? He is making this so hard of me, just by the way he responds to me. 

"I have to tell you something, " I said letting go of his hand. He tries to hold imine again, but i just stuuf my hand into my pocket. 

"What's wrong?" he asks with a worried face.

"I- I think we should spend some time apart." His face just broke my heart. The color of his face seemed to just vanish, looking at me with his eyes pleading to never say those words ever again.

"What- what do you mean, I - I don't know what I did wrong," he seemed to stutter out of disbelief of what I just said. "I thought we were going so well, I dont understand. Why do you want to break up?" he continues on but I stop him with my hand on his chest.

"Look, I don't want to say that stupid 'It's not, you it's me' thing, but it's not something you did yourself. Everything is changing for me right now. And there are certain people who seemed to care for you more than I could ever possibly do. I am not good enough for you, you can do so much better. And I can't do long distance, you know that, I told you that so many times. Ireland is seriously far away, and I love you to death, but maybe its best for us to just spend some time apart. We could stil be friends-" he seemed to be completely blanked out and just staring into space until I said friends.

"You think we can be friends?" he seemed to say with complete disbelief and disgust at the thought. "Meredith Brooks, I can't be friends with you, not after all that you and I went through. I thought about us having a future, getting married, having children with you. I can't be friends with someone who I love so much that I can't think about having a future with anyone else." he says staring into my eyes.

"Cameron, Steph could love you so much more than I could." I say breaking away from his eyes and shaking my head. " I can't do this Cam. I love you, but I don't know. Forgive me, please, for making you go through so much pain, but, I'm sorry." I say breaking a tear. I didn't want to do this, but I knew it was best for us.

He seemed to not be able to take any of this in, he seemed to break at any second, but I had to get over with this. It was best for us.

Cameron's POV

She couldn't be doing this to me. I had so much planned for us, and I didn't know what to do. I was trying to give her everything I possibly could, but yet I didn't know what to say. 

Then all of a sudden I blurt out. "Meredith Brooks, if Ireland is a problem, then I'll move there for you." 

What did I just say?
