NASH'S POV

Our first stop was a little shop that had cool hats, sunglasses, shirts, jackets, coats and all that. Probably like a thrift shop.

"How do I look?" Cam asked, wearing a hat which had a massive butterfly on it.

"You look like you could pull of Mean Girls 3." I answered, he chuckled and took the hat off.

We all roamed around and spent about twenty minutes in there, there were a lot of things to play with and try on.

Our next destination was a nearby park which had the best slushies.

"Oh my god, Cash is real!!!!!" I heard a girl say, I turned my head to look at them and saw that there were girls squealing at us. I look down and saw that Cam was holding my hand.

"Can we take a picture with both of you guys?" They asked. We agreed and took a quick selfie, then they took off.

" 'oh my god, cash is real!!' " Cam mocked, I smiled and smacked his arm playfully. "Well no shit girl haven't you seen the news." He continued.

"Cam, that's mean." I cooed.

"I'm sorry." He apologized, I give him a quick peck then continue walking. After a while, we got to the park, it was beautiful. Probably the best park I've seen in my life. It had a lot of trees, and it was beside the sea which gave us delightful breezes. The benches weren't made of wood, like ordinary ones, but they were made of marble, which added a sophisticated vibe to the park. There were a lot of people, couples, and groups that hung out under the trees, getting some shade. Cam gripped on my hand, then relaxed.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Nothing..."

"Cam."

"It was nothing, Nash."

"Cameron."

"Nash."

"Cameron Alexander Dallas." I snapped. "What. Is. It." I said in a stern voice.

"It's Jen. Jennifer." He said, looking down.

"Oh my god, really? Where is she?" I asked, excited. I looked around and finally found her, she was with another man, probably her boyfriend. She looks different though...oh...my...god...

She was pregnant.

"Is she pregnant or is that a food baby?" I asked, confused.

"She's pregnant." Cam answered.

"Why are you mad seeing her? Isn't she a good friend?"

"She is...but she asked me to attend her wedding...and I didn't want to go."

"Why not?"

"Because they won't let me bring you to the wedding."

Something pierced my heart.

"Why?" I asked.

"She doesn't like you, Nash. She's jealous that you're treating me better than how she did. She's mad that you changed me. She's mad at how much you've affected me." Cam explained.

"What? I changed you? What?" I asked once again.

"When I was dating her, I was a complete asshole. I wouldn't reply to any of her texts, I would flirt with other girls even though we were dating. I was just...a horrible person back then."

"Why?"

"Because I didn't want to date her in the first place."

What. What. What. I said in my head, and realized I actually had to say them physically.

"What" I said, dropping my jaw.

"I used Jen...I used Jen to prove my masculinity."

"Why Cam? You're so masculine."

"Not back then...Before I dated Jen, there were rumors about me and a guy named Christopher. They suspected us being in a gay relationship."

"And is that true?"

"Hell no!" He snapped. "Christopher was my best friend, and because of those rumors, he thought that I liked him. He was homophobic. And because of those rumors, our friendship was destroyed. He didn't want to talk to me, he didn't want me anywhere near him. So I had to...I had to date a girl to prove him wrong, to prove everyone wrong. Jen was the first girl that came across my mind, because she told me she liked me a few months before that. So I asked her out and forced myself to be in a relationship with her."

"Aww. I'm so sorry, Cam. But you don't have to hide. You really don't. Just remember that love will always overpower hate. Even the worst person has fans, family, and friends that love them."

"We should walk away." He said, and pulled me to him. We start walking to where Taylor and Shawn were, they were sitting on the marble bench, watching the waves hit the seashore.

"Oh, Nash. Can I talk to you for a moment?" Shawn said as soon as we got near them. I nodded and pecked Cam before walking with Shawn.

"What is it, Shawn?" I asked.

"I missed you."

"What are you talking about? We've been seeing each other every day for the past four days." I chuckled.

"Not in that way..."

"What do you mean?" I said, confused. We turned to a corner where Taylor and Shawn couldn't see us.

"I miss your lips..." He whispered, rubbing his thumb across my cheek. My heartbeat raced.

He leaned closer, and closer.

But I can't.

I honestly can't do this anymore.

"Shawn..." I said, pulling away. "Do you ever think how this makes us bad people? I mean, we both have separate boyfriends yet here we are."

"But...You said you can kiss me..." He said sadly.

"I know Shawn, and I'm so sorry for getting your hopes up. The thought of me cheating on Cam...again, makes me feel horrible. I'm sorry Shawn, I love you, but only as my best friend and brother. My brotha from anotha motha." I smiled "Nothing more and nothing less." I continued.

"O-okay." He stuttered.

"I'm really sorry." I said, pulling him in for a hug.

"It's okay..." He looked down. Ughhh, I really hate making people sad.

"Hey, please don't be sad."

"I can't."

"What will help?"

Shawn stood there, silent.

"A slushie." He smiled.

"Slushie it is." I chuckled and placed an arm around him. We started heading back towards Taylor and Cameron.

A/N: SURPRISE I UPDATED. LOL XD

So from Iloilo, which is where I stay and go to school and all that, we rode an airplane to Cebu, and from Cebu we have a connecting flight to Tacloban City, which is my hometown. Some of you may be familiar with this city because of the devastation Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda brought to it. Yes, I am from there and I am honestly a little scared to go back because some of my friends told me they keep seeing ghosts and spirits and all that XD

But what happened is, right when we got to Cebu, it started raining pretty bad and our connecting flight to Tacloban got moved to tomorrow, May 25th in my timezone. The airline booked all of us a hotel to stay in overnight and yey they have wifi. So I'm updating from my iPad :)

This is probably my last update before my hiatus sooo yeah XD But I will still be writing while I'm on vacation, just not being able to publish it...or maybe I will. Maybe I can publish the stories if we find a restaurant or cafe with wifi :) Sooo, hope for the best!

My flight isn't until 10PM, May 25th in my timezone, so you guys can still Kik me because I'll probably be staying in the hotel and drooling over the wifi tomorrow XD And if we do decide to go out and explore, my 3G signal here in Cebu city is really good, so I will be able to reply :D

Love y'all and Stay Nashty :*
