Song: Memories- Shawn Mendes
Camila's POV
All the pictures, moments, memories however you wanted to call them were right in front of me. Everything I wanted to forget stood in front of me.
I placed all the photos back into the photo album, I grabbed on to it and held it against my chest. I remembered hiding the stupid thing when I was seventeen. It was a few months after I last heard from him. Last time I saw him was my seventeenth birthday, he had a concert in New York that day. I was beyond help to see him that day.
After the show he sung happy birthday to me and we hung out in his hotel for the rest of the night. I hid the photo album in a place I thought no one would find, I guess I thought wrong. I thought hiding it among the rest of the albums nobody would question it or even find it.
I could never forget about, even though I tried and pretended to the memories were always in the back of my head. He was always on the back of my mind, I could never forget him. But did he forget me? I haven't heard from him in a few years, I mean he was doing his own thing. He didn't have time for this New York girl.
He was living his life and I was living mine. Although I wish I could travel the world like him, I laughed remembering how we wanted to travel the world together. It would never happen, another promise broken. What did I expect?
Everyone swore that after I graduated high school I would get up and leave my state, but I didn't. Why didn't I just get up and leave? I always had this stupid thought that he would come back here and we would meet up again. What a stupid idea.
I felt the need to just get up and leave my apartment, what is the thing I do best? As Isabella said get up and run away from my problems. I didn't think I had any problems, even if I did they're unfixable.
Deciding to walk around the town for bit to try and clear my mind. It had gotten colder all I had on was a thin sweater, again how stupid was I? I guess the walk cleared my mind because all I was thinking about now is how cold I was. It was spring, but it still had snowed earlier this week.
I continued my walk downtown, still thinking about how cold it gotten. I suddenly headed a scream forcing me out of my thoughts, and there it was again. It sounded like a teenage girl, hopefully not someone my age. Curiosity got the best of me as I decided to walk closer to all the noise.
Across the street there was a bunch of girls a few boys and some very upset looking parents. They all seemed to be surrounding one person. I was so confused about what was going on until it finally hit me, a bunch of teenage girls screaming and are surrounding one person. They must of found someone they idolized.
I decided I wanted to get a closer look, I mean I kind of wanted to know who this mystery celebrity was. The group of girls had finally calmed down as they got pictures, I still couldn't see who it was as he was facing the other way. What did my life come to? I was standing outside in the cold, trying to figure out who is random person was.
Soon everyone was starting to leave, I guess it was my chance to chance a glimpse of the person. As he turned around ready to cross the street to where I was, we made eye contact. My eyes widen as I realized it just wasn't any celebrity. He looked so familiar, but different at the same time.
I quickly broke the eye contact as I realized he was walking over to me. Maybe he remember, maybe he didn't. All I knew was that I had to get out of here. I started running into the opposite direction of my apartment, I knew Isabella lived over here. She still lived with here parents, I wanted her to live with me, but she refused after I told her, she didn't have to help me pay rent.
I turned around to see if he was still in sight, I let out a breathe as I realized he wasn't anywhere to be seen. Maybe he didn't remember me, and I just looked like some freak running away from someone she didn't even know. I now realized what Isabella meant she she said I run away from my problems. I just physically ran away from my problem.
As I was already near her home I just kept walking, I was just thinking about how I was actually upset about seeing him again. He was in New York and didn't even tell me, we haven't spoken in a while. But still, it hurt to know we probably aren't friends anymore.
Was it stupid to be thinking this, probably was it's not like it's his fault we haven't spoken in a while. I didn't try to contact him and he didn't try to contact me. It was both of our faults, but it was so much easier to just blame him. I just wanted to be upset, scream and cry at him and ask why? I could have honestly, but I didn't want to cause a scene in public especially if he didn't remember me.
I finally made it to Isabella's house I knocked on the door waiting for someone to answer. "Oh Camila! So nice to see you!" Her mother says to once she opens the door "nice to see you too, is Bella home?" I asked stepping inside "yes, she's up in her room" she tells me I thank her and make my way to Isabella's bedroom.
I didn't bother knocking on the door I was walked in, she was just sitting on her bed scrolling through her phone. "Camila? Oh, you here to tell me it was a great idea to look back at all of your old memories?" She asked "you're welcome" she answered smiling "I saw him" is all I say to her "who?" She asked confused.
"I saw Shawn" I answered.
This is the last chapter! Hope you enjoyed my little book. I might make a second but I don't know because no one really read the book. Soo bye for now!
