Tampered Love

Chapter Three

"Uh hey Michael," I say quietly. I look at the ground and can feel my heart about to pound out of my chest. Michael says, "I haven't seen you in quite awhile." I just nodded. Ashton notices the awkwardness and starts walking to the house we are going to for the party. Ashton leaves us right away to find Hannah in the mob of people. Michael looked at me and asks, "Can we go somewhere more private I need to talk to you about something." I nod and he takes my hand and leads me upstairs into a bedroom. I sit down on the bed and wait for whatever he is going to say. "Cameron I really like you and i'm pretty sure you have figured that out already. I really want you to like me too.... and this sounds really middle schooly. But anyway I would like to take you out on a date." I responded, "I really like you too and I would love to go on a date but.." "But?" "But I don't want to be your girlfriend or anything till I know you better." He nodded and raised his eyebrows. I asked, "What?" "Lets go on it right now." "Right now? Why not?" He laced his fingers through mine and we ran down the stairs and out of the house.

The rush of cold night air hit us and we ran till we reached a forest. We were both gasping for air. He grabbed my hand one more and led me through the forest. We finally stopped at a tree with a ladder. He motioned me to climb up it, so I did. At the top was a beautiful tree house. It had those gold twinkle lights you put on your tree during Christmas. There was also a small make shift bed in the corner. When Michael got up I exclaimed, "This place is amazing!" He said back, "Yeah I made it when I was a kid one summer and I came up here all the time. Sometimes I had camp-outs up here so that's why the beds here so don't think it's there so i'll get with you cause i'm not like that." I laughed then said, "Yeah if you wanted to get with me you probably would have by now." His face turned stone cold for a second. "I told you princess i'm not like that okay." I stepped back for a second shocked. "Sorry you just look like.." "I look like a boy who would hookup with a lot of girls huh?" "I'm sorry." His frown turned to smile and he pulled me to him by my waist then wrapped his arms around me. He whispered in my ear, "I'm a virgin babe." That was something I never suspected.

"So what are we going to do?" "I dont know I didn't think I would get this far." I giggled and said, "Lets dance." He gave me a weird look then said, "Why not at least your here." He grabbed his phone and put his phone on shuffle. The first song that came on was 'Come Home' by One Republic. He put his hands around my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck and laid on his chest. We went through a lot of songs then got tired. Michael says, "Since we're here we can just sleep here but I can lay on the floor." I shooke my head no. "Okay princess if that's what you want. But your going to be uncomfortable in those clothes so you can sleep in my tee shirt if you want." I nod yes so he slips of his tee shirt. His body was flawless. I pulled my eyes away and took the tee shirt. "Look away I don't you to see me change." He walked to a corner and faced it. I giggled as I took off my jeans and my shirt and put on his shirt. I slipped into bed right when Michael turned around. "Is it okay if I just wear my boxers because I get really hot when I sleep. I nod and he slips off his pants and comes into the bed. He pulls the cord out for the twinkle lights out then I feel his arm around me. I lay on his chest and fall asleep. This is the best I have slept since the break up.
