It had been 2 days since I last spoke to my mum. It was decided- She was coming down as soon as she could. Her estimate was within a week maximum. 5 more days.

The past days have been nothing special. We decided we should talk to each other more about ourselves, seeming as both of us had a fair share of secrets although he basically figured mine out.

“So, Why do you work for Mickey?” I asked. This wasn’t the first time I had asked him this yet as he agreed to ‘get to know each other more’ I felt this was an important decision in his life and I was dying to know about it.

“Roderick” He corrected mumbling.

I sighed and shook my head, “Just because you finally told me his name-Well you technically didn’t but yeah- Anyway just because I now know his name it does not change the fact that he will always be called Mickey by me. It just suits him” I blabbered. He gave me a odd look before shaking his head at me disapprovingly.

“Anyway, stop changing the subject” I argued.

His eyebrows rose up, causing crinkles to appear on his forehead his mouth hung low, “You’re the one who’s talking utter nonsense!” He said defensively.

“See! Changing the subject again!” I pouted which caused him to chuckle. “Why are you working for him?” I asked again.

Was it any of my business? Was I pressuring him into telling me too much? Maybe I should just let it slip-again. He can tell me in his own time as he clearly doesn’t seem to think its something worth telling me. No, I need to know!

I was having mixed thoughts about this when I was cut off by Cameron clearing his throat. I looked at him and gazed into his eyes looking for a hint of emotion- Nothing. Blank.

“I didn’t do it for myself. I thought I was doing it for a good reason but now im not so sure..” He began anxiously. I noticed he was fidgeting with the hem of his shirt. I nodded for him to continue, “Well, I did it for my sister”

I was confused. I frowned at him. “Did she make you do it? Like by force?” I said just as another thought crossed my mind, “Did Mickey do something to her?” I gasped.

He was vigorously shaking his head muttering, “No, no, no, no” He inhaled deeply as I waited for an explanation. “I needed the money” He began. I didn’t quite understand what this had to do with his sister. Was she doing drugs?

“She was in hospital after a severe car accident. I had to pay for her treatment otherwise the hospital would not continue to give her the treatment she needed to help her survive. I had no choice, I guess I just didn’t want  to lose my sister. She’s all I have left” He said quietly. He voice was getting croakier as he spoke.

“Aw, that’s so sweet of you! You really do love her” I gushed. I slowly wrapped my hands around him and hugged him. We stayed for a couple of seconds before I pulled away from him and gestured for him to continue.

“I went looking for any job that would give me the cash straight away so that I could pay the hospital and help my sister. I found Mickey and he gave me a deal to work as his agent. I was desperate for the money I even agreed before he even told me what I was agreeing to do. After he told me I didn’t want to, but for my sister I was willing to. That’s why I did it… Im sorry I got you into all this. Ugh” He muttered. He looked so ashamed of himself.

“No, Its fine. Besides he’s find me either way, im lucky I ended up with a hot hunky like you” I winked at him which caused him to grin but that grin on his face soon faded.

“Cameron look at me” I rested my palms on his cheeks and moved his head so our eyes were locked. I stared into those deep eyes of his. “What you did was cute, You did it for your sister. If I- or anyone else for that matter was in your position im sure they would’ve done the same thing. I trust you” I admitted.

I paused for a moment then I slowly leaned in. Cameron mirrored my actions as our lips met half-way.
