Chapter 8: Stop It!

                                                    *KAYLEE'S POV*

     I couldn't stand it. Seeing her in that hospital bed and I couldn't help but feel hatred towards all of the boys, but mainly Cameron. When she woke up, I sighed in relief, but I remembered Matthew was right there. I felt like we were being mocked or something. When he asked if he could stay in there alone with her, I got scared. I couldn't just leave her, so I left the room, but stood behind the closed door. I knew what they both said, and I was the one acting.

     A little later in the day, I left to go meet with Matt. I headed down the street, as the warm sunshine hit my body. He's usually at the park this time of day, so that's where I went. It shouldn't be this sunny. It should be grey and rainy. I searched the park, and there he was.

     "Matthew!" I yelled, making him jump. I approached him slowly as he sat on the swings. 

     "What?" He said calmly, looking a little happy to see me. 

     "Is what you told Lindsi true? About you being different from the other boys?" I asked. He looked at me like a deer in the headlights.

     "You honestly think I would leave her alone with you? I heard everything you told her in that hospital." I said, as he just sat there in silence.

     "You must not know what you're talking about." I said, crossing my arms over my chest. I KNEW he was lying. 

     "So. Were you lying to her face? Right after she almost died! How could you?! You assho--" I continued confronting him before he grabbed my shoulders. I froze instantly.

     "Listen... I WASN'T lying." He said as he started to tear up. 

     "I really do like her, but this isn't the time for me to tell her. You need to promise me that you won't tell her. Please?" He begged. Wow. Lindsi was right. He wasn't acting. We were staring at each other, and that's when I realized how beautiful his brown eyes were. No! I was NOT going to fall for him!

     "Fine. You have my word." I smiled shyly before he walked away. I immediately texted Lindsi.

     K: Hey, gurl hey! :3

     L: Hey! Whats up? :)

     K: Not much. How ya feelin?

     L: Eh, I'm alive. So I can't complain. xD

     K: Lolz... sooo...

     L: Sooo..did you talk to Matthew yet? #curious :P

     I didn't know how to reply. Should I keep the secret? Or should I tell her?

     K: Ehh, yes... I did.

     L: Really?! :D Annnnddd?! 

     K: I still don't know. I've g2g.

     L: :/ okay. cya.

     Wow. I lied. Straight to her face. What kind of friend does that? I start to tear up as I get tapped on the shoulder. I turn around to face all 5 of them. They could tell that I had been crying. Cameron was the first to step up, coming close to me.

     "Awe. Is the little girl upset that her friend got a boo-boo?" Cameron teases. I wiped the tears from my face as I started to get pissed. 

     "You know what? I am upset! Because I care, unlike you! You're a fucking bastard." I yell in his face, making him laugh.

     "You're a bitch. You know that?" He snaps at me. All I do is give a little smirk, thinking of a great comeback.

     "Let's be real, sweetie. I've been called much worse!" I say, smiling confidently.

     "Oh yeah? And what would that be?" He says, frowning. I guess he was a little disappointed that nothing that he said could phase me.

     "...Your girlfriend." I say, as all 5 of them freeze. Cameron comes closer to me and smacks me hard across the face. I'm pretty sure that the neighbors heard the echo of the smack.

     "W-Why? Why are you so mean? I practically gave you everything! And you stomped on it! You never cared, no matter how many times you said you did!" I said. No, yelled. I was on the verge of tears.

     "And... you almost killed my best friend!" I stormed off with tears rushing down my face. I will never love any of them again. I went to my house and sat on the porch swing. I couldn't stop crying. After about 5 minutes, I looked up and saw Cameron standing there... alone.

     "What do you want?" I snap as he sits down and attempts to put his arm around me. I pushed it away quickly.

     "Look, I'm sorry!" He said. I just looked at him in disbelief.

     "No you're n--" Was all I managed to get out before he kissed me. Lip to lip. I quickly pulled away.

     "WHAT THE HELL?!" I yelled at him as he kept me secure in his arms. 

     "Let me go!" I yelled as I struggled in his arms. 

     "No! Not until you listen to me!" He said in almost an angry tone. I stopped struggling. 

     "I-I miss you. Come back. Please?" He begged. I stood up from the swing and ran to the door. 

     "Go away!" I yelled, as I closed and locked the door. I'm so confused. What do I do? I hate him! Or... was there a possibility that I missed him? Wait til Lindsi finds out. I HAVE to tell her. I'm really not sure how I felt about Cameron. I just fell to the floor.
