Not Gonna Fall In Love With You

Chapter TwentyOne-Part I

Chapter TwentyOne -Part I

Throughout these last six days, everyone in our highschool, have been in full swing preparations for the elections, even the ones who aren't standing. Well, everyone except of me.

I was sticking up to my promise to Nate about not campaigning. I knew how much it meant to him, so decided to prepare for his campaign except of mine, hoping to get his trust back. I wanted to prove to him that I did care about him and not about this elections, but somehow some part of me, didn't feel so good about it. Some part of me wanted to do something else, which I want to know.

Maybe, I was scared about what Mindy would do. But to be honest, I didn't care about Mindy, and knew that it wasn't the cause disturbing me.

I wanted to think about this more, but couldn't, because I didn't have time. I was supposed to meet Nate at his house in exactly half an hour. Although, I still had a good whole twenty minutes left to spare, since Nate's house is only a five minute drive. I knew if I got deeper into this topic, the more lost I will get in my thoughts.

My phone vibrated in my pocket, and I removed it only to see it was a text from Brie.

Brianna 3:30pm

Hey! Wanna hangout today?

I wish...But, I couldn't, after all I promised him. I don't really know why but now days, I have this instinct to try to avoid Nate. I have no clue why. Like I think I am scared I will hurt him. Which I won't, I guess.

Me 3:34pm

Cant go...Gotta help Nate for the elections...

I pressed sent and tucked the phone back in my pocket. I took the keys of my car, and my red leather jacket.

Badass, right?

I walked downstairs, and picked up a few stuff that Nate asked me to get from the living room.

I opened the main door and stepped out when my pocket buzzed once again.

Brianna 3:38pm

Cameron...

Me 3:38pm

What?

Brianna 3:39pm

Why are you doing this?

What does Brie mean by this? I was doing this because.. I needed to do this, to earn Nate's trust. I wanted to show him that I am bigger than this elections. But why do I feel so weird right now? I want something else. I don't know, I am not sure. I am not the same person, I used to be. I am not the same girl, who would cheer up seeing Nate's messages, I have changed. How? I don't know. I started to type my reply, but then the phone started ringing.

Nate was calling.

"Hey, where are you?" I heard Nate's voice through my phone.

" I am outside my house...just leaving. Why did you call, did you need something?"

" No..just checking whether, you were coming or not. See ya."

He said as he hung up the phone. Hmm...weird. Nate had never checked up on me like that before, like only throughout this past week. Was he still uncertain of me not campaigning? But why? I have been with him throughout this whole past one week, making posters with his name on the top, not mine. I have stayed up all night editing his speech, not mine.

I have been nothing but loyal to him. Then why the sudden insecurity? You know what, I think I am making a big fuss out of nothing. I entered my car, put all the stuff in the back seat, and started to drive off to Nate's. We had alot to do since tommorrow was campaigning day.
