~Cam's POV~

"It's only the second week of summer and you're asking me if I would follow you for a vacation to where? Florida? Wow! No I won't go without my friends," I said to Joe.

"We'll bring them to," Joe said.

"Really?"

"Yeah,"

"Okay. When's the flight?"

"I booked the ticket. It's tomorrow, morning. The same time we go to school,"

"What the fuck?!" I exclaimed. "Why so early? I don't even have enough time to pack!"

Mom came in between our conversation.

"Don't worry, Cam. We'll go shopping this evening and pack together tonight for tomorrow. How is it?"

"Whatever."

I rolled my eyes to Joe and climbed up the stairs to my room. I lay down on my bed and shut my eyes tight. I heard footsteps outside and my first thought said it was mom. The door opens and I pretended I was sleeping.

But turned out, it was someone else. It was Joe. "Hey, sorry I followed you." I didn't respond.

I ignored him. He sat on my bed, next to me. After what felt like a minute or two, I can feel someone was on top of me. He was on top of me. I don't know what was he trying to do. I opened my eyes immediately and saw his face getting closer to mine.

He inch closer and closer, until our nose touches. I was getting nervous. The closer he gets, the more nervous I was.

I thought for awhile. All of a sudden, my brain was usefully working for the first time since the last day of school. I was happy. I counted from one to three quietly. "One................two...............................three!" And 'boom'. I slapped his face.

"Ouch, Cam. What the fuck?!" he screamed. And slowly get off me.

"Sorry. I saw an ant crawling on your face," I lied. "Big ant,"

"Seriously? I don't feel anything crawling on my face," he stroked his cheek. It reddened right after I slap him.

I shrugged, trying to look innocent. "I'm sorry,"

He ignored. "Fuck, I'm bleeding," he said.

"Liar," I said.

"No I'm not. Look," he lift up a finger smeared with blood.

I was shocked. I didn't know I slapped him that hard. Now I felt guilty.

"What's going on here?" Mom came.

"He's bleeding, mom. Oh god, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to do it," I said.

"What in the hell did you do?" Mom asked.

"I slapped him,"

"Why? What did he do to you?"

"I.... I don't know. He's trying to do something bad to me so........ I don't know. Oh god, I'm so sorry," tears started to welled up in my eyes.

"I was just gonna kiss you. Is it wrong? I thought it would be fine," Joe said.

"He was just trying to kiss you. Just a kiss, Cam. Be open-minded," mom said.

"Sorry, I'm not used to it. I'm not used to all these kind of things. All these romantic stuff. I'm not used to it. So I felt awkward," I blurted out. I wasn't lying, everything that involve the word 'love' is really not in my memory.

"I gotta go," Joe said. He stomped out of my room.

"Cam, go after him. Tell him you're sorry," mom said.
