Dead Wishes

Art

After getting home last night I waved bye to Mags, Jasper, and Sean. When I walked back inside I saw Clarity, Everdean,and Kyle sleeping on the couch. They all had their phones in hand. I closed the door quietly walking past them. Walking up stairs I closed my door and dropped my bags on the floor. I turned on my speaker and connected my phone to it and plugged it in to charge. I picked a song then walked to my bed jumping on it and curling under the blankets.

The music continued to play as I drifted off to sleep.

I woke up and it seemed like I just closed my eyes. The music stopped and when I got up the music played. I twitched at the loud sound and the music played again. It was 6:12am in the morning. About a few minutes pass until my door swings open and I'm tackled to the floor. " What the hell Cameron. Where have you been all week?" Clarity asked giving me a glare.

"I was you know out.."

"For a whole week. Kyle, Everdean and I have been looking for you hoping you'd call."

"Sorry Clarity I just got held back. At least I came home." I said getting up and finished tying my hair.

I just shrugged her off and continued to get ready. Soon Everdean and Kyle finally came up the stairs. I was grabbing my bag and phone. Clarity tried talking but I just ignored her especially Everdean and Kyle. Finally Clarity grabbed my wrist before heading down stairs.

"Cameron what is wrong. You have to tell me please I was worried and I thought you died. "

"if you thought I died why did you even bother? Also why would you even think like that?"

" You were gone for a whole week what else was I suppose to think? "

Smiling I sighed than gave in a bit.
"I'm so sorry Clarity it's just I needed a brake from home. Now may we all please just head to school now?"

Clarity looked like she wanted to talk more but just stayed quiet. We all slowly walked down the stairs and headed to school. I love walking around especially in the morning or evenings. Kyle looked at Everdean who looked at Clarity, "Let's race! On your mark get set GO!" Clarity yelled.

I ran with them and surprisingly I was the first to the school. I was so happy to be back home again and back to school.
"It's nice to have you back Cam." Everdean said giving me a hug which turned into a group hug. Everyone let go and we started to head to class.
Math was first and I took notes on simplest radical forms and got the homework. Next was computers and this was the most bestest part of the day that made it better. There was no computers and we had to go to the art class room. It was always fun when there was no computers because we went to art where we could also do paintings, drawing and sculptures in there. I always loved to do paintings and drawings.

When the class got in I sat way in the back near the windows. I took out my own pencils and sketch pad and started drawing the view outside. The minute bell rang and someone put there elbow on my shoulder and tossed a book pressed flower on my paper. I looked at the rose before looking at that person and turned around to see Jasper.
"Nice sketch by the way. I saw your little note about the book pressed rose and well, I give you your book pressed rose." He said laughing a bit and sitting beside me.

I gave Jasper and big hug and saw Everdean looking at me but I just looked past him. I buried my face into Jasper's jacket and felt like crying. Jasper doesn't know that I'm going to die soon. No one knows and I want to tell him. All these thoughts went through my head and I started to cry. Crying quietly I looked up at Jasper who wiped my tears away,"You'll be okay Cameron. I'm always here for you."

I wiped my eyes and took the rose putting it in my book. Jasper and I talked but I believe I talked the most out of him. We had a contest on the best drawing of the view outside. He kept saying he won when we finished and I think he did. He just wanted me to say that he won so I did. After class was over we walked out of the class and he grabbed my hand. I got scared at first and just let it be. He walked me to my next class and said goodbye.

~Time skip to P.E~

Mrs. Paige had us all run for 7 minutes on the track before class. I wasn't very athletic but I did a good job on running. After the running I chose Mara as my partner because I haven't talked to her in a while. Today for P.E it was volleyball.  The partners we picked would be our team mates in the games we played this week and next week. When class was over I was walking with Mara to the swimming pool.

My swimming improved so much and I was glad it did.
"Thank you Mara." I said and she turned around.

"For what?" She asked laughing.

"Teaching me to swim even if I was awful at times."

"No problem Cameron.  I'm just glad you learned it." Mara laughed and went under the water resurfacing.

After 20 minutes of swimming I had to leave and Mara followed along.
"Hey Mara?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you wanna hang out tomorrow. Only if you want."

Mara nodded her head and we both walked home.
