"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies."~Aristotle

The next morning my mom wakes me up for Easter.

"Jess wake up we're running late!" My mom yells at me.

"Hurry up and take a shower you smell like beer!" She says, my face turning bright red.

When I get out of the shower I put on my dress, it's one of the prettiest ones I own. When my family arrives another family comes to welcome us. A hand reaches out, it's Cameron's.

"Good afternoon. Jess is it?" He says with the biggest smile.

"Yes it is. Cameron right?" I say with just as much enthusiasm.

"Correct and Happy Easter." He says while still holding my hand.

"And to you too." I say releasing the grip.

His dad looks at me.

"You look beautiful Jess. You might not remember me but I've known you since you were born." He says with his face bright.

"I'm so flattered" I say blushing a tad.

"Doesn't she look beautiful Cameron?" Asks his dad.

"Gorgeous." Cameron winks at me.

We enter the church and our families are sitting next to each other. Cam is on one end and I'm on the other. During the service, my phone goes off. It's a text from Cam.

"Hey :)" He texted.

"Hi" I text in response.

"You look ravishing<3" He texts.

"Looking pretty sharp yourself;)" I text back smirking.

My mom takes my phone and gives me "the look". Throughout the service me and Cameron exchange smiles. Once service is over we all go over to my house for lunch.

"I'll go grab the peas dad" Cameron says.

"Jess care to join me?" Cam asks.

"Sure. Mom?" I look over at her.

"Yea go ahead." She gives me her permission.

When we get into his car it smells like weed.

"Don't worry about the smell. The last time I had a party, Leo smoked weed back here,but I didn't." Cam said

"Ok." I said and felt so stupid.

For some reason I believed him. I trust him. I'm not easy about that, it took me a whole year to see Jenna as my kind. Now look at us. We do everything together. It was kinda awkward the whole car ride. Then a song came on.

"Hey what's this song?" I asked attempting to make small talk

"The neighborhood- Afraid. It's a badass song. One of my favorites" He said with enthusiasm.

"I like it" I said with a smile

I did genuinely like it. I kinda loved it. Is this what love feels like? It kinda feels nice...kinda.

"What kind of music do you like?" He said trying to make small talk.

"The good kind." I say kind of sarcastically but with a smile.

"Stop being a smart-ass" He says nudging me with his shoulder. A smirk plastered on his lips.

"But seriously what kind of music do you like?" He says with a serious voice.

"I like all kinds of music: rock,indie, and all the other genres. Just the good kinds. I say looking at him.

"Nice." He says rocking his head back and forth.

"What? What kind of music do you like?" I say kinda laughing.

He smirks.

"The good kind" He says mockingly.

"Stop being a smart-ass" I say just as mockingly as he did.

We both smile at each other.
