Bad Boys & Bad Girl

Chapter Sixteen

Seven days, seven days from today I was going downtown to race. Seven days I was going to find out if I was going to win the money or not.

I sigh as I layed down in my bed. I wanted to go out, to the alley, Ronny's, where ever I just wanted to get out of here. Why couldn't I? I've been asking myself that question for quiete a while too. For some reason I couldn't go anywhere in fear that I will bump into someone. I guess talking to the Ranger sure got me paranoid. 

Cameron has been texting me and calling me but I haven't replied. John and I haven't talked either, but I knew I had to talk to him. I just wanted him to be my friend again. At least that. Aaron? Probably in some party or maybe hanging out with Cameron. My phone started ringing again and I decided to answer thinking it was Cameron again but imagine my surprise when I heard the voice I never wanted to hear again.

"Amanda? You actually answered," Adam said in the other line. I should have hung up but just like the feeling I felt of not going out of the house I felt of not hanging up with phone. Instead of hanging up I actually answered.

"Adam, I suggest you leave me alone, delete my number and just forget about me," I said simply. 

"Now you don't expect me to do that right? I mean after two years of not hearing a single thing about you I didn't give up and now that I do you expect me to? You're funny Amanda."

"Adam please, a lot is going on right now and I sure as hell don't need you to go on top of that."

"I miss you."

"Goodbye Adam." Finally after 2 years of not letting go, after two years of thinking about him and missing him. That phone call and the things that been happening for the past 2 months made me realize that I should have let go the minute I got on that plane to move to LA.

It's now been 5 minutes I've been knocking on John's door. But no answer. I knew he was here because his car was so unless he decided to get a dog and take him for a walk I had no idea why he wasn't answering. His mom was probably at work so maybe that's why she hasn't answered.

My phone started ringing again and this time I checked who it was before I answered. When I did I answered. 

"Amanda! God you dissaperead on me, you had me so worried. I will ask you to meet me in the alley but theres been shooting and I don't want to go tthere just yet. So do you want to go at Ronny's? Wait I forgot something. Do you want to hang out?" he asked. I smiled at how fast he was talking. 

"Sure, Ronny's it is." I said, We said our goodbyes and I hung up. Once I started walking away from John's door I looked back and took out my phone and texted him.

Please talk to me.

"I really think you shouldn't go on that race, or if you do make sure you lose." I told Cameron about my encountering with the Ranger with made him nervous about me being in the same place at him.

I rolled my eyes and told him I'm for sure winning that race. It's always been my dream and just because I got a warning, won't stop me. Me and Cameron ate and talked. When we finished we walked out the parking lot together. Cameron got on his bike first as we were still talking.

"Hey, come here I need to tell you something." Cam said as I walked closer to him. He suddenly leaned closer and whispered in my ear. "I really like you," after that he brought his lips with mine. He didn't give me a chance to reply as he pulled away and drove off leaving standing in the small parking lot like an idiot.

I got in my car and drove off to my house. Once I did get home I went back to my bed where I started that morning. I then hear two dings from my phone. One from Cameron another from John.

Cameron: I really do like you.

John: Can we meet up tomorrow?

And this is why I didn't want to go out in the first place.
