Was It Really Meant To Be?

16 I think I hate you

After the sun went down me and cam walked up the hill and back to the road. We started walking on the side of the road until a car pulled up next to us. The man lowered his window to speak to us.

"Hello" he said he was wearing a navy blue janitors uniform.

"Hi" Cameron said

"My name is Jeff"

"I"m Cam"

"Do you two need a ride?" Jeff asked.

I looked at cam and he looked at me. We were both thinking the same think. We didn't know this guy and it would be irresponsible and dangerous to get in the car with a total stranger who could kidnap us or rape us or kill us.

"Sure" I say as I open the back door to Jeff's car and get in and cam gets in next to me. After we were safely buckled in Jeff started to drive off. The car smelled like a bar.

"So what were you two love birds doing walking on the side of the road anyways? Why you all bleeding and wet?" Jeff asks

"Love birds????" Me and cam exclam in shock

" oh no we're not-"

"No its not like that we-"

"Ya we're not like-"

"We're just.."

"Just....."

"What are we?" I turn and ask Cam. This was the first time I really thought about this. Just a month ago I hated his guts. I still hate his guts. But I think I like his guts too. We can't be friends because we are enemies. I liked him but I wasn't gonna do anything about it. Its not like I actually wanted to date my life long rival. Did I?

"We're...partners" Cameron finally said. I look at him and smiled.

"Good to know, but that doesn't answer my question." Jeff said. "Anyways where am supposed to be taking you guys" Jeff asked. I told him my address and he slammed the braked on the car.

"That's way too far kid, is there possibly anywhere closer I can take you?" Jeff asked.

"No"

"Well sorry I don't think i can drive that far" Jeff says

"Well can I use your phone to call my brother to come get us, I would call him myself but I lost my phone at a bar." I say

"Was it by any chance the el Diablo bar that was having fight club today?" Jeff asks with hope in his voice.

"Yes yes it was" I say returning the hope in my voice

"I'm a janitor at that bar" Jeff says

"By any chance did you see a little pink phone anywhere?" I ask

"Nope" Jeff says with a smile. Popping the 'p'

"Oh, well can I use your phone" I ask Jeff says yes and hands me a strange looking brick. I just stair at it in confusion.

"Its a flip phone its what they used when the world was in black and white" cam whispers to me.

I pick up this 'flip brick' and flip it open reveling a bunch of numbers. I then called Chris.

"Who is this?" Chris asks

"This is your sister, I need a ride" I demanded

"First of all I am not your personal taxi so you can't keep using me for my car and second I thought you were with Cameron why can't he give you a ride since you and him are such great friends as of late" Chris snaps at me.
