I had another nightmare last night. It was stupid, but Matt was in my dreams. Matt! I nearly cringe at his name. I woke up earlier this morning and couldn't even get him off my mind. I wanted the whole world to know about Cameron and I, but if they did, Matt would know too. I sigh and slam my head against the breakfast table when Cameron was about to put a mug of coffee in front of me, but then pulls it back. He gives me a concerned look. "Something wrong?" he asks. I shake my head as he puts the mug back down in front of me. "Many," I sigh. "Do you want to talk about it?" He asks. He takes a sip of his coffee and sets it back down. I shrug. "I honestly don't know." He looks down at the table. "Well," he starts. He puts his hand on top of mine and squeezes it. I squeeze back. "Who is this about?" I press my lips into a firm line. "Matt," His eyes widen a little. "Oh," he says quietly. He sits back and scowls. "Do you have feelings for him still?" My jaw drops. "What kind of question is that?" I demand, furiously. "You really think that I'll date a boy who I've liked for my entire life, and later just throw the relationship like its a piece of shit?" He shrugs and crosses his arms. "Answer it." I roll my eyes. "No, I don't like him. Not ever." He nods, his eyes thoughtful.

"Good."

Cam dropped me off at my house. He had to run some errands while I got ready. We were going to New York together that night, to have some time alone, and we both had interviews.

I packed my things into my suitcase and plugged my phone into the charging cord. I got into my pj's and went downstairs to get a snack. My mom was downstairs, talking to Frankie on FaceTime.

"Hey, Frankie!" I called, while opening the fridge. "Hi, Ari!" he said, waving. He was supposed to come back the other night, but his flight got delayed. So instead he was coming back tomorrow night. I wouldn't be here. "I'm coming back tomorrow, maybe we can do something!" I instantly felt horrible. "I'd hate to say this, but I won't be here. Sorry, Frankie." I sigh. "I'm going to be with Cam up in New York." He frowned. "Aw, man. I was looking forward to seeing you. When are you coming back?" "Um, several days from now." "Okay, I gotta go. Bye mom, bye Ari!" "Bye," I said. Mom waved and then hung up. She put her phone down and then looked at me. I shut the fridge door, getting some orange juice and crackers. "How many interviews you have there, Ari?" She asked. "I think about two." I said. She nodded. "Be safe there. Who is going to take you to the airport?" She asked again. "Cameron, he's going to leave his car there." I replied, pouring the orange juice into a cup. I put the carton back into the fridge and grabbed my food and ran upstairs. Cameron texted me. I put my food down. "Hey babe, pumped for New York? 😚" I smiled and replied. "Yeah. Love it there. Especially being with you. 💏 Which hotel we staying at?" "I actually got a good place for us. It's private too☺️ It's a surprise. You'll love it." I smiled. "Love as much as I love you? 😚❤️" "Haha no, maybe not that much😘" I set my phone down and ate a cracker. I turned on the tv in my room and got on my phone again. I got on twitter and replied to some fans. "Following and tweeting spree. Live chat in one hour. 😘💕" I tapped tweet and watched all the replies roll in. I followed and tweeted a lot of people. It was then almost time for the live chat. "Live chat coming up, use the hashtag #livechatari2014 😘 I'll answer your questions." I got my laptop out and got on twitter there, and I brushed my hair. I clicked record and a million people watched while I answered their questions. One of them were about Cam. I froze. What should I say? I had to be careful. "Well right now, I'm not going to say if we are dating or not. It's not a yes or a no, but we are in fact very close. He's my best friend, and I'm his best friend. But, we will both be in New York tomorrow afternoon. I'll be at the airport at six in the morning with him boarding the plane. I'll be seeing some of you guys, and I'd be gladly to take pictures with you or even sign some autographs. But right now, it's not confirmed yet. I appreciate your curiosity, though. This has been the most recent question I've been getting." I sigh and smile tiredly. "I'm pretty tired. Thank you all for this, my fan base, friends, and family. Love you all and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be here. Thank you." I blow a kiss to the camera and click off. Just then I get a call. It was Cameron. "Hello?" I say. "Hey Ari. I'm at home right now. Are you all packed?" "Yeah, what about you?" "Almost. Hey, I saw your live chat." I laugh nervously. "Stalker! Did you see everything?" "Yep. I just love how you said something about our relationship." I could tell that there was a hint of sarcasm in his voice. I roll my eyes. "Shut up!" I laugh. He laughs too. "But seriously though, that's why I love you, you respect me; us." I roll my eyes, my cheeks hot. "You gotta have self respect in order to pay respect to others." He laughs. "Yeah, but you looked beautiful in the live chat, just saying. Your hair down and you wearing my favorite sweatshirt? Damn, I was looking for that one everywhere!" I blushed. "Cam," "It's true. Sorry I sound weird, but I love, love, love, you a lot." I smile widely and blush. "I love you a lot more."
