*THIS WHOLE CHAPTER WILL BE A SERIES OF FLASHBACKS* 

*8 years ago*

"Hey! Give that back!" I yell after my twin brother as he grabbed my journal from me. "What? This?" Grayson dropped it into the toilet, and I could feel my eyes starting to fill with tears. He walked away and pushed me down on the floor. I fish into the toilet to try to save the already soaking journal. "Hey, what is that?" I look up to my older sister Cameron, "It is nothing. Just please go away." She looked at me sympathetically and bent down. "Here." She reached out her hand and I reluctantly gave her my journal. She stood up and took my journal with her. I immediately followed her as she walked into her room. "Hey, what are you doing?" she turned around and faced me, "Just trust me." I nodded and followed her into her room. She went to her vanity and pulled out her hairdryer and plugged it in. She opened the journal carefully and started to dry off the pages individually.

After the journal has finally dried, I looked at her and smiled. "Thank you." She pulled me into a hug and said, "Anytime, bro. Just between you and me, you are my favorite. Grayson is a dick." I laugh and she soon starts laughing too. 

*3 YEARS AGO*

"Isn't it a little lame that I am your date to prom?" I look at her confused, and she started laughing. "Oh well." Cam had on a long dress that nearly took all of our rent money. She was beautiful. We walked to the middle of the dance floor and started dancing together. "Wow, Cam, this is the one you decided to go to prom with? Your fucking brother?!" Cam and I turned towards the voice and to see Dirk standing there. She gave him a look and responded, "Yes, and guess what? He is twice the man you will ever be." She flipped her hair and my eyes were wide. "Damn, my sister is bad ass." We both start laughing, but soon Cam started to cough. "Are you okay?" She nodded, and held her mouth while she cough. "I am fine." Her voice is hoarse as she dropped her hand. I look down at her hand and see it's covered in blood. "Cam?!" She looked down and smiled, "It's nothing--" Before finishing she dropped and fell to the ground. I caught her before she fully collapsed. "Cam? Cam! Cameron?!" I could feel my eyes start to fill with tears as I screamed, "Someone call the ambulance!" She opened her eyes slightly as I rocked her, "Nolan?" I jump and respond, "Yeah?" She smiled at me and said, "Please, stay with me." Her voice was barely comprehensible. "I am not going anywhere. I promise." 

*Two Years Ago*

NOLAN'S POV

I sit next to Cameron in the hospital bed. "Want to know a secret out parents never told you?" I jump when her soft voice filled the room. "What?" She smiled at me, "I wanted to name you Ethan, but Mom wouldn't let me. Mom said Nolan was unique." She started laughing causing her to cough and close her eyes from the pain. I look at Cameron, as she was hooked up to many machines. "Please, don't leave me." She opened her eyes and looked at me. Her hoarse voice filled the room, "I am not going anywhere. I promise." I grab her hand and squeeze it. "I love you, Cam." She smiled and whispered, "I love you, too, Ethan." Then her grasp of my hand started to loosen, and her machines started to give a still sound. "Goodbye, Cam."

A/N: I know there isn't smut, but there will be. I just needed you to know some Nolan background. I love you all! 73 reads! That is bananas!
