Was It Really Meant To Be?

18 Twenty Dollar Trust

~End of Valerie's nightmare~

"RRRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!"

I wake up from my horrible nightmare by the twins screaming in my ear.

"RRRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!!"

"Shut up, what do you want" I throw a pillow at them.

"We were given sleigh bells to play for the school play" Oliver said

"But we dropped the sleigh bell when daddy was driving us home on the motercycle" Olivia added

"So now we are the sleigh bells" Oliver again.

"RRRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!!"

"Shhhhhhhhhhh, I don't wanna hear you guys screaming I just woke up" I say sounding harsh. The twins instantly looked like they were about to cry.

"I mean I don't want to hear it because I'm sure Dustin would love to hear it first. You two know how much Dustin loves music" lies

"She's right" they say at the same time. Then they run off to go find Dusty, closing the door behind them.

I get off my bed and head to the bathroom, all the while hopping that my nightmare really was just a nightmare. But when I looked at myself in the mirror I knew that wasn't true. My eyes were swollen, and my face was still red and blotchy from crying. I can barely remember what happened after I threw the chair, I don't even know how I got home, I probably ran all the way here seein as my thighs were burning. But I remember storming out of the school and hearing someone call out my name over and over again. I sluggishly walk back to my room after washing my face, determined to take another depression nap.

I fall back on my bed staring blankly at the ceiling, wondering what the hell should I do wish my life. Right when I was about to give him a second chance, Cameron-who I thought I hated, then liked, then hated, then liked again-goes and kisses Vera-someone who I thought was my best friend, who I completely poured my heart out to and told all my deepest secrets (but not my darkest ones, I don't think she would be able to handle that).

The feeling of betrayal and heartbreak left my stomach in knots, my eyes swollen and my whole body drained of all life and energy. but most of all, I feel like a complete idiot. I should have known better than to trust Cameron, to think that he would just suddenly start liking me out of nowhere. Chris was right, he was just messing with me, I should have known better.

thinking back on what just happened made me want to cry again, but then I remembered something my dear mother told me when I was young, long before she passed away.

"Val sweetie, I need you to pay attention to what I'm about to say and don't ever forget it," she said "when you get older your going to start having feelings for guys and your going to date them and eventually your going to get you heart broken. and when that happens your going to feel really sad and shitty. But you just need to suck it up and get the fuck over it because at the end of the day boys aren't shit and you shouldn't waste your time on them. But that doesn't matter, what's important now is that if I ever die after giving birth, I am most likely faking my death and I need you to got to grandmas house to dig up some money out of the backyard for me. There should be about 50 million, then call this phone number so I can pick it up"

my mother was always so wise and always gave me the best advice. I still can't get over the fact that she is really dead, I miss her so much. Anyway I decided that I need to take my mothers advice and get over Cameron. I need to go to school with my head held high and not cry when I see him.

Cam's POV

Okay so before you all hate me just as much as Val dose let me explain myself so. Here's what happened

********************************** FLASHBACK TO YESTERDAY**********************************

"Vera wait I have to ask you something." I say as I chase her in the hall.

"What do you want Cameroon?" Vera said with an all to familiar sassy tone.

"I need help with Valerie"

"sorry chamomile but I wont help you because I don't like you"

"I understand why you don't like me Veve but why dose Valerie hate me" Vera then slapped me in the face. I was expecting this.

"Don't call me that!" she shouted in my face.

"What? 'Veve'? You used to let me call you that back when we dated." That's right. Last year me and Vera dated. This was long before I had any feelings for Valerie.

"Don't remind me of the dark ages. And Valerie doesn't hate you she is just confused by you. Believe it or not you are a very confusing person Camouflage. who knows what goes on in that stupid head of yours.?"

"really? 'The dark ages'" I say mimicking her voice. "Don't you miss all this" I say gesturing to myself in all my glory.

"No do you miss this" Vera then grabs my shirt and pulls me close and kisses me right on the lips. I was nice, but she wasn't Valerie. When I kissed her is was like sparks.When I kissed Val it was fireworks. It just wasn't the same. I was about to pull away when I hear a chair slam angst the lockers next to me.

******************************** FLASHBACK OVER **********************************

So you see. Its not my fault. But still I don't know what to do about this. I need to get Val to trust me again. I have no idea what to do.

Valerie's POV

I'm back at school. The day is almost over. I haven't seen Vera or Cameron All day. I only have one class left. French.

I walk in class. I take my seat. Vera sits in her regular seat on the opposite side of the class as me. Cameron sits right behind me.

"hey" He whispers. I obviously ignore him.

"hhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyyy" Ignored

"i'm pregnant"

"what!!!????"

" and so she speaks."

I cuss under my breath for falling for such a stupid trick.

"I'm sorry" he says and I ignore. "please talk to me" I ignore. he reaches into his pockets and takes out $5. "I'll pay you 5 dollers to talk to me."

I snatch the money out of his hands "I hate you" I say

"I know and i'm sorry, but you need to understand its not my fault. Valerie I like you. I like you a lot. Like a lot a lot, and I just want us to go back to the way things were. I want us to be partners again and I want to be able to trust you and I want you to trust me again."

"After what you and Vera did yesterday I don't think I can trust any one ever again." Cameron then reaches into his pocket and takes out a crumbled up twenty dollar bill.

"I'll pay you $20 to trust me" I take the money.

"fine" then some really fancy lady and the principal walk in.

"Everyone listen and listen good. Madem G is not your teacher anymore she is. Class i want you to meet Mrs Mangano. Your new teacher." The principle says then walks out.

"Any questions" Mrs Mangano asks kinda awkwardly.

Everyone raised their hands.

"Do you even know French?" Some girl askes

"No"

"What happened to madem G" some guy askes

"She got arrested for drug use"

"Do you do drugs" Vera asks

"No"

"Do you want to do drugs cause I'm selling" Vincent asked

"See me after class about that"

"If you dont speak French then what are we gonna do in this class?"

"Study hall"
