ONE MORE LIGHT (Watty 2019)

COLD HEARTED

Mia
I opened my eyes quickly searching for Cameron in the room. What the fucking hell is wrong with me? Why am I dreaming about fucking making out with him? I just had a fight with Jake.

I was still sitting with my back resting against the bed. It was 3 am. And Jake wasn't here. I went to the bathroom and rinsed my face. Once done I walked downstairs to search for Jake.  I needed to talk to him.

While searching I bumped into something hard on the floor. "What the heck ouch?" I shouted not so loud to see Jake's bags. He was leaving. I then heard a noise near the pool. "Jake" I asked as I walked towards the pool. He looked up with his phone in his hand and his legs in the water. He was so sad and tired. I get it we didn't get any sleep since the fight.

I slowly sat next to him and put my legs in the cold water. He took a look at me and looked away again.
We sat there for like some minutes not talking to each other. He was looking at the wall in front of us and I kept staring at the water. I really need to talk to him. I need to tell him the truth about me and Cameron. I kept on thinking when he placed his hand on mine gently. We didn't made eye contact. "I'm really sorry Jake I didn't mean to hurt you" I said with tears running down my cheeks.

"I need you to realise that I'm here for you Mia. You can tell me anything you want." He cried. "I know I need to tell you something" I grabbed his hand. My hands were shaking and I couldn't control my emotion. "Cameron and I were together for years before Sam died. And he left me while I was falling apart. And I've moved on from these but at the party i was so angry. He doesn't have the right to get me back after what ever happen. So when Nash took you i couldn't control myself and I took it out on him" I said crying still not being able to look at him in the eyes.

"I just want you to be happy Mia. Please I beg you. I took you out of you pain and your suffering and you cannot bring those back." He tried to say with his cracked voice.

"I would do anything to protect you Mia I love you" He cupped my face as we both cried. "I love you too" I hugged him and felt his hand hugged me tighter. "I need to go back home for a few days you think you would be ok? " He asked after some minutes. "I'll be fine don't worry. Just be back as soon as you finish the work" I rested my head on his shoulder.

"I'll be leaving tomorrow at 12.00 so would you like to spend the morning with me love?" He asked as I smiled. "I would love to do that more than anything in the world." I said and gave him a kiss and we both entered the house when Jake head to the room and I went in the kitchen to find water.

I grabbed the bottle of water and closed the refrigerator when all of the sudden i saw my mom behind me. I swear the whole time I was so scared that I could have punch her. "Mom what the...?" I dropped the bottle and placed my hand on my mouth. "Did you want to kill him?" She asked and I took me some seconds to realise what she was asking me.

"What kind of question is that?" I tried to walk away but she asked again with a serious tone. "Nash kidnapped Jake and you shot Cameron. Did you wanted to shot him?" She waited for me to answer as I kept on looking eight in her eyes. "Yes I wanted to shot Cameron the heart." I said coldly and took the bottle and walked away.

Jake
I still couldn't believe they were together. This is why Cameron act so jealous and strange in front of us. I put my luggage in the car as Mia waited for me in the driver seat. I called a cab near the Bar. We planned for a brunch before I leave. Well let's hope Cameron don't disturb us. But I don't know why I have a feeling that he would mess around my girlfriend.

They were together and some days ago they met again after 4 years and now they will be living in the same town and they work together. Fuck Jake stop over thinking it. Things will be fine. "Jake.......Jake? " I heard Mia shout. "Yeah" I looked around. "We are here!" She smiled as we got out of the car.

We ordered some food. Mia went to the bathroom while I walked to the counted to picked the drinks. " Jake" I heard the only fucking voice I didn't want to hear. Fuck no!
"Cameron Dallas hello" I greeted him with a smile which I put on my face when I see the person I don't actually want to see. "Where is the Mia?" He looked around with a smirk on his face. My smile fade away.
"Ok cut the crap asshole. I wonder how is your hand man?" I asked touching his bandage hand as he stepped back in pain.
"Yeah she shot me pretty badly" He said rudely. "Well she should have shoot you in the heart" I snapped. I took the drinks and was about to return when he stopped me.

Cameron
I guess Mia told him the truth. I thought he would be angry. Fuck it.
"Well she shouted have shoot you in the heart." Jake snapped. Fucking shit.
He was about to go when I stopped him. "She is mine you know that" I said loudly for him to hear. "Excuse me" He gave me a confused look. "Mia was mine.. is mine and will always me mine no matter what" I said clearly as he approached near me. "Are you sure about that? Because the last time I checked... Mia has been sleeping in my house, in my room, in my bed for the last three years and 2 months. I go to sleep and wake us everyday with her by my side." He explained angrily.
I simply gave him as smile but I really wanted to punch him in the face. "She'll get back to me because she always does" I said coldly knowing that Mia hate me the most.

"I don't know about tomorrow. But all I know is that she was broken when you left her." He said angrily. I was so confused. "Let me tell you a story Cameron. 4 years ago a boy met a girl in an mental support house. The girl was so beautiful that the boy couldn't stop admiring her. But then he started to notice something about her. The girl was so broken that she was struggling to fight the darkness. She cried herself to sleep every night and didn't eat for days. She wouldn't talk to anyone. Since that time the boy decide to do anything he could to save her. And it took it 9 month to do it. You see the boy himself was the cure for the girl and the girl accept that because the boy was the only person who was by her side when she was falling apart." He explained sadly when we heard a familiar voice soft voice.

"Jake" Mia stood behind us.

Every single word Jake said meant something. Is he referring to Mia and him. Wait but I didn't left her. What is going on? What is he talking about? I feel really bad and I think the story  hurt me.

"Mia" I smiled at her as she took her cup of coffee from Jake. "Can I talk to you for a minute please" I put aside my arrogant and asked as gentle as possible. "I'm sorry Cameron but I don't like to talk about business when I'm with my family." She said coldly as they both turned and returned to their seats.

Did she refer me as her colleagues from office?
