Protect Me || Cameron Dallas

Chapter Eight

*Cameron's POV*

I got into the bed with Amanda and then realized what I was doing. I can't do this to Sammy. But then again, Amanda has been my YouTube crush since I had first found out about her. Damn it!

"Cameron." Amanda said my name in a sleepy voice.

"Yeah?"

"Will you sleep next to me? It makes me feel safe."

"Sure." I said and climbed into bed next to her.

"Thank you." Amanda thanked me. She thanks me a lot.

"You're welcome."

Amanda pushed her body to mine and put her arm over me. Sammy never let me lay like this with her. She would sleep at the other end of the bed when she stayed over. I pushed my comparing of them aside and closed my eyes to get some sleep.

"NO! STOP IT! I WON'T LEAVE. CAMERON, AREN'T YOU GOING TO DO ANYTHING?!" I woke up as fast as I could when I heard Amanda screaming.

"Hey, hey, hey." I shook her and woke her up.

"What?" She asked.

Her forehead was all sweaty and she was crying.

"You were screaming." I told her and brushed her hair out of her face.

"Sorry." She mumbled and turned over.

"It's fine. Stop apologizing and thanking me for every little thing that I do for you. I know that you are grateful and sorry. It's okay." I told her.

"I guess it's just a habit, sor-"

"Shh." I put my finger to her lips and smiled.

"I'm hungry."

"Same. Where do you want to go?"

"Dairy Queen sounds good." Amanda smiled.

"Let's go."

"We're going inside?" Amanda asked me with a weird look.

"That's why I parked here." I laughed.

"I thought that we would just go through the drive thru, because it's really late or early in the morning." Amanda just stared.

"It's only three."

"I look like crap." She laughed.

"You look perfectly fine. I can't seem to keep my eyes off of you even if you're in sweats." I covered my mouth as the words spilled out. I didn't mean to say that out loud.

I saw Amanda's cheeks flare. She smiled and looked away from me.

She got out of the car and and I followed right behind her. When we got into the restaurant, I felt some eyes land on Amanda and I.

We quickly ordered our food and we found booth. All we got were some fries and chicken strips. Amanda got a cookie dough blizzard while I didn't get one. I quickly regretted it.

"Are you Amanda Greene?" A girl and guy came up to Amanda and I.

"Yeah." Amanda smiled.

"I watch your YouTube videos and I'm just truly inspired by you. You're so perfect. You always have a positive mindset and I just look up to you." The girl smiled at Amanda.

Amanda let out a little laugh, but hid it with a fake cough.

"Thank you." Amanda gave the girl a big grin.

"Can I get a picture with you and will you sign my phone?" The girl asked.

"Yeah. Hey Cam will you take a picture of her and I?" I asked Cameron and handed him my phone.

"Yep."

"My name is Carmen."

"That's a pretty name." Amanda smiled and got up.

Her hair was in a messy bun and she was in my sweats and her Colorado University sweatshirt.

I smiled and took a few pictures of her and Carmen on Amanda's phone and then some on Carmen's.

Amanda signed Carmen's phone and handed it back to her.

"Thank you so much Amanda. I love you." Carmen smiled and gave Amanda a hug.

"You're welcome. I love you too Carmen." Amanda smiled and hugged Carmen back.

"I'm sorry to bother you while you guys are eating. Could I have a picture with you too, Cameron?" Carmen asked me.

I smiled and nodded. The guy that was with her gave me a dirty look. I assumed it was her boyfriend.

"Smile." Amanda said and took the picture.

I gave Carmen a hug and then she and her boyfriend left.

"Amanda?"

"Yeah?"

"Why did you laugh when Carmen told you that you were perfect?"

"I didn't." She lied.

"Yes you did, but you covered it with a fake cough." I urged.

"Because I'm not perfect. I am worthless and a druggie." Amanda got irritated.

"No you aren't!"

"YES I AM! AND IF YOU CAN'T SEE IT YOU'RE SO FUCKING STUPID!" Amanda yelled at me and ran away from the table.

I quickly cleaned up the mess and grabbed her blizzard.

*Amanda's POV*

"Because I'm not perfect. I am worthless and a druggie." I got irritated and felt the tears forming.

"No you aren't!" Cameron rose his voice.

"YES I AM! AND IF YOU CAN'T SEE IT YOU'RE FUCKING STUPID!" I shouted back at Cameron.

I hate arguing, with anyone.

I ran from the table and went outside. I ran all the way to the other side of the parking lot and sat on the curb. I started to cry, which I didn't want to do.

"Why are you crying?" Cameron asked as he sat by me.

"Because a jerk made me cry." I mumbled.

"Am I the jerk?"

"Yes."

"How did I make you cry?"

"I hate arguing." I looked down at put my head against my knees.

"Sorry." Cameron put his hand on my back, but I shrugged it off.

"Hey, look at me." Cameron put his finger under my chin and lifted my head.

"I am." I laughed a little and looked into his pretty brown eyes.

"Now you are." Cameron whispered. We were so close that I could feel his hot breath on my lips.

Cameron leaned in closer and placed a soft kiss on my lips.
