"I guess I deserved that."

I snapped out of subconsciousness, only realizing that Cameron was standing almost an inch away from me. His palm was cupped on his left blushing cheek.

I exchanged stares with Liz and Wes who were standing at each of my sides. Their eyes were wide open, in somewhat shock.

Majority of those near us stopped their businesses and glanced at us too which made me feel uncomfortable.

I can't believe I slapped Cameron. I mean I should be glad. This is what I've always wanted to do. Maybe it was the locked up rage inside my chest that urged me to actually do it.

But there was no slice of gladness. Not even a tiny slice. As I watched him rub his cheek while smiling, it stabbed right through me, like a metal  arrow was digging deeper.

I heaved and stored the air in my lungs for a millisecond before letting it all gushed out. There was a hand placed on my chest.

I looked to the side and it was Liz, gesturing something that I did not really comprehend.

Everyone was staring at us.

Before I could say anything, Jennifer appeared.

"Well that was awkward," she giggled fakely. I rolled my eyes at her and did my very best to restrain myself from pulling her hair off her idiotic small head. I clutched my fists from the back of my hips instead.

Good thing the DJ began to play his next track. It was a mashup tune of an 80's music and a 20's music. The people at the party started dancing again as if nothing happened.

I saw Cameron glanced at the DJ and gave a low thumbs up. The DJ nodded in return.

Cameron then hauled Jennifer further from us. She was trying to budge but couldn't let go.

I phewed. I thought it was over and I could go ahead have fun with my two best friends but nope... I was wrong.

Cameron came back to where we were. Jennifer looked really pissed and stomped with her heels away to somewhere I don't care.

He was rubbing his nape as he walked towards us. He's showing his 'Im feeling nervous' gesture.

"Ah yeah. I think I saw Daniella over there," Wes stated pointing somewhere to the right. "I'm gonna go talk to her." He continued, patting me on the shoulders before officially leaving.

"Oh Gustin's calling," Liz uttered. That one surprised me.

"Wait a minute. Gustin? My brother Gustin?" I confirmed.

"N-no," Liz rolled her eyes in denial. I could tell.

"Why is my brother calling you?"

"This isn't your brother. There are a lot of Gustins in the world okay!!" She yelled in response.

I blinked in astonishment. It was pretty obvious she was being defensive. I let it slide anyways. I was more worried of Cameron swiftly approaching.

Liz phone continued ringing. "I really  need to get this. Sorry."

Her very last words  before leaving was, "Good luck."

That wasn't helping at all.

Cameron cleared his throat, catching my attention . I gave him my 'get-away-leave-me-alone' stare. He didn't seem to understand.

Ugh.

"Let me start over," he said. He extended his hand forward to me and spoke again.

"Hi Gabby," he added. I obligedly accepted his hand for a handshake. His hands were soft as always, despite being used all the time whenever he plays his guitar and or drums. Also that other stuff men's hand becomes useful.

"I'm so glad you could make it," he added. The music was a big loud so we had a hard time hearing each other, causing us to lean over and having our heads close.

As much as I don't want to, but the space between our faces is making me blush af.

"Why are you talking to me?" I shouted.

He just smiled. So annoyingly adorable!

"Jennifer's going to kill me."

He cackled. "She's not going to kill you.

Oh yeah? How do you know that you two-timing seductive retard?!

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her around ever since earlier. I wonder where she's hiding right now. She's probably in her evil layer plotting up another scheme to make her an even more garbage than she already is.

"I want to talk... in private," Cameron shouted in a whisper. My jaw dropped. So did my heart.

He dragged me to his bedroom to have a quiet conversation, away from everybody. I could still hear the loud music from below but it was better here now.

Cameron removed his guitar and firmly laid it on the middle of his bed. I remained standing by the closed door.

Why did he bring me here? I mean yeah he wants to talk somewhere more quiet but why of all places did he bring me here?

Is he densed?! This was where I gave him the rest of myself. This is where we made... I caressed my tummy at the thought.

He walked closer to me. I stepped back, he moved closer and I stepped back again. He seemed to be ignoring the message that I don't want him near me.

"W-what do you want us to talk about Cam?" I was left staring at his eyes. His beautiful golden eyes. My knees felt weak but I must not let him notice. I tried to step back one more time however there was no more space for me.  My back leaned on the door.

Cameron leaned his upper torso forward, his arm stretched to my side, his palm placed beside my head that was leaning on the door.

Is it just me or it just got extremely hot all of a sudden.

Cameron's free hand went up to grab hold of my chin. As much as possible, I did all I could just so my eyes won't meet his. But I was weak. My emotions  betrayed me.

I tried to push him further but my hands were weak too.

"Gabby," he exhaled. Feeling his warm breath on my face sent my supposed-to-be-stiff-with-anger-body shivering.

"I.. I'm sorry," he whispered softly.

And then, his lips touched mine.

A/N

Commercial agaaaain!! :D Darn it. My goal was to write 15 chapters for three days but anime just keeps distracting me.

Anyways, I've always thought of putting a bit of smut here but how can I? Our heroine's pregnant for crying out loud.

Oh and I can't believe I just wrote this with Cameron doing 'that'. Preposterous.

Lastly, sorry about the technicalities and imagery. This is subject to a finalized edit once all of the chapters are done.

There are more stuff to happen in the next chapters. Hope I don't get writer's block.
