*Cameron's POV*

"LILLY!" I heard someone yell. I looked up.

Nash.

Fuck.

"Hey!" She said. She seemed nervous, though. I was too.

"Where were you?" He asked, seeming confused.

"Oh I was with Cam shopping and stuff."

"Why were you with Cam?"

"Oh," Jc said, "He was the distraction. I asked him about it this morning. I didn't tell anyone, though."

"Oh, okay. Thanks man."

"No problem."

"Come on Lilly, I want to catch up!"

"Oh, okay," she said, leaving her bags there.

Jc pulled me to the side.

"Dude. I had no idea. He showed up this morning and I was confused but Jack and Kian had planned for him to come and I just had to go with it,"

"I understand, don't worry about it."

"You okay?"

"Uhh... No, actually. She's with Nash. And I'll probably be taken out of the picture. This fucking blows. I had so much fun."

"Yeah I saw your pic. You guys looked happy."

I nodded. Was I going to be taken out of the picture?

Don't be stupid, of course you are.

Fuck my life.

*Lilly's POV*

I was happy to see Nash, I really was. But I didn't want to play Cameron, or Nash. And that's how it was going to end up. Shit.

"Okay so I want to know everything about you," Nash said, bringing me closer to him.

Forget Cam. Just worry about Nash.

"Alright, but not here, it's too crowded."

"I agree."

So we rode our Pennyboards to an ice cream shop.

"What do you want?"

"Vanilla."

He laughed, "That's boring, babe."

"Fine then I'll get what your having," I smirked.

Bad mistake. He ordered chocolate, with like, everything on it.

"Nash, this is diabetes in a cup,"

He laughed, "Maybe, but at least it'll be good at the moment," he smiled at me, "Alright so spill. I want to know anything and everything about you," he said, pulling me toward a booth, and then sitting across from me.

"Alright, so my names Lilly," I joked.

He laughed, "I mean things I don't know about you. Like: What are your mom and dad like? What are your siblings like? How's school? What are your best friends like? Stuff like that."

"Oh. Well... My mom is overprotective and thinks YouTube is a waste of time. Basically only worried about me getting in to college. Dad died when I was seven. Gilinsky's the only sibling I have and you know him. Annoying as fuck," he laughed, "but a really good friend, and an amazing brother," he nodded, "Uhh... I used to live in Florida. But I moved because I was bullied," he looked at me weird, "I was uh... Suicidal. Almost committed suicide once," he looked worried, scared even. I coughed, "My best friends are O2L, Luce, and Damon. And I'm close to Jack and Jack of course. And Jenn and Andrea." And I kept going. More secrets spilled out. Those big blue eyes staring at me from across the booth, holding my hands, making me feel okay.

"I never knew all of that."

"Yeah. I kept it hidden...."

There was an awkward silence.

I smirked, "Now you."

He smiled, "I have two brothers: Will and Hayes, and a half sister, Skylynn."

He also kept going. My blue green eyes staring into his. It's amazing how much I didn't know about him.

After he was done, a woman walked up to us.

"Awe, such a lovely couple!"

"Oh, we're not a couple," I blushed.

"Not yet, anyways," Nash winked.

He's such a flirt.

"Are you going to the carnival?" She asked.

"Wha-"

"Yes we are," Nash smiled.

I looked at him...

Carnival?

"Well I hope you two have much fun,"

"We will," Nash assured her.

She walked away.

"Okay now tell me: Do you ride carnival rides?"

I smirked, "Are your eyes blue?"

He smiled and pulled me from the table.

We walked, hand in hand, to the carnival. He pulled me in the entrance and we rode every ride.

Then he pulled me to the boardwalk, that was almost vacant.

"Okay that was insane!" He said sitting down on the edge.

"What?" I said sitting next to him.

"Any other girl would flip out on any of those rides. You were smiling the entire time."

I blushed and looked down at my hands.

He put a finger under my chin, "Don't be embarrassed. I loved it," I smiled.

Don't. Don't.

He leaned in and we kissed. And there were fireworks.

No literally. Actual fireworks went off. He smiled against my lips and pulled me in, his arms around my waist, pulling me onto his lap.

I put my legs around his waist, and kissed more passionatley. He moved, trying to adjust himself, and we both fell off of the boardwalk and into the water.

I hit the water and froze.

I can't swim. I can't swim.

Where's Nash?

Just hold your breathe, things will be okay.

Time was ticking by. I couldn't hold my breathe for long. It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.

My time was coming. I felt breathless.

Is this what you want? Are you ready to let go? Leave Cam and Nash? Leave Jack and Jack and Luce and Damon and O2L and Andrea and Jenn and everyone else? After all they've done for you?

I closed my eyes and let the water overcome me.
