Chapter 11

Cameron's POV

I walked to the men clothing sections passing a couple aisles and there she was. Bailey.

The girl who always thought that we went out. She liked me for the longest time and I always turned her down. Why? Because she's really rude to be honest. She was always the snobbiest one at school and thought she could get whatever she wanted. I was one of the things she wanted.

She moved away last year but apparently she's back. Shit.

"Cameron?" she squealed appearing by my side.

I turned to face her. She hadn't changed a bit.

"Hey. I'm busy right now." I lied, attempting to walk away.

She grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

"I just want to talk." She scoffed and I rolled my eyes. "I'm staying here for the summer. Wanna hang out?" she asked me flipping her blonde hair out of her face.

"Uh no. Like I said, I'm busy" I said finally walking off.

"I'll get to you some how Cameron." I heard her say as I was walking.

I brushed it off and continued to where I was going.

**********

We later arrived back home. It turned out That Emma only bought three bathings suits when it took her forever.

We got inside and changed into our swim suits and got ourselves prepared for the beach.

Emma threw on shorts and a tanktop over her bathing suit and so did my aunt. I went out with only my swimming shorts.

We got in the car and drove down to the beach which wasn't too far away.

When we got out, we brought our stuff out along with us. Sunscreen, towels, and our beach bags.

We set them down in an area and I began to apply sunscreen to my body.

"Need help with your back?" Emma asked me, smiling.

"Yeah. Thanks." I smiled, handing her the bottle.

"You're welcome." She said as she began to apply it to my back.

Once she was done, I did the same for her. I have to admit, she looked really cute in her bathing suit and I couldn't keep my eyes off of her.

We later ran into the water together and began to swim around for a while.

When she wasn't looking, I ducked under water and held my breath. I went under her and picked her up, with her legs on my shoulder.

"Oh my gosh! Cameron you almost gave me a heart attack! Put me down!" She exclaimed.

The people around us began to look and laugh a bit.

"No." I said smiling up at her.

"If you don't put me down, I'll push both of us down." She threatened.

"I don't think that's going to happen." I said getting out of the water and walking to where our towel was, Emma was still on my shoulders.

I set her down on the towel and sat next to her.

"Really Cam." She crossed her arms, smiling.

"We were in there for a while and you don't wanna get all wrinkly do ya?"

"Yeah True. Thank you then!" she laughed.

"You're not welcome." I joked.

She glared at me as I laid down on the towel.
