"i hate when dudes try to chase me,
but i love it when you try to save me."

two years later

i lay on the couch waiting for cameron to come home from work. recently he'd been working on his new movie, descendants 2. he'd been really busy, but it was okay. i was able to go to set almost every week at least once.
we're two years strong, everything changed that day when he kissed me. of course, jack found out, and lucky me, he's not at those stupid picnics anymore. cam still gets a little jealous of him, but he knows that he has what not only jack wants, but what he wants.
on our one year anniversary, cameron have me a promise ring. he promised that he would marry me one day, but that we were still to young. that he'd give me the four kids i want, and that we'd stay together forever. all while we were in hawaii, just us. i can't tell you how much i cried that night, out of pure joy.
cam <3 : i'm omw, what do you want for dinner?
me: i made us pizza hut that's gonna be done soon and some popcorn
me: there's a new horror movie that i rented too :)
cam<3: okay babes, i'll see you at home❤️


about a half hour later, i hear cameron's car pull into a parking spot, and the door slam shut.
he opens the door and kicks his shoes off, then slams the door.
"cam?" i say, peeping up from the couch.
"babes." he says, his eyes full of tears.
"mica, what's wrong?" i say, getting off the couch and walking over to where my saddened boyfriend stands.
"i'm so stressed out over this movie, making sure you're taken care of and that you're happy. i'm worries about skai because she has problems going on at school."
"cameron, listen to me." i say, intertwining our fingers.
"you're an amazing boyfriend, you don't have to worry about me. our relationship is rock solid, there's no reason for you to stress, okay babes?"
"the movie is going to be what it's going to be. you're an amazing actor. you're loved and cared for by more than just me. okay? the movies going to be wonderful."
"well both talk to skai, her problems aren't your problems. that sounds harsh, but it's the only way i can think to put it. we will help her solve them, but we ourselves can't do anything more than that. okay?"
"okay." he said, as the tears fell. he pulled me into him and backed us up against the wall.
"i love you." he said, looking down at me.
"i love you." i say back, kissing his shoulder and putting my head up by his neck.
"i don't know what i would do without you," he says, squeezing me tighter.
"because, y/n, i'm struggling. i really am."
"mica, what do you mean?" i say, looking up at him.
"i'm starting to feel like i don't deserve you. that i'm not good enough, and that you can do so so much better. i go to sleep at night worried that things are going to change. worrying that when we wake up, you won't love me anymore. i don't like myself, and i worry that you won't either." the tears keep rolling down his face.
"sweets, you're the best thing that could've happened to me. i love you more than anything else on this world. you're never going to wake up and not have me by your side. i love you, and i love all of you. your doubts, worries and your triumphs, i'm here for all of it. i care so much, mica. it hurts me to think that you don't love yourself as much as i do."
"but," i continued, "well work through this. i'll fix this, i promise."
he leaned down and kissed me, hard. the way we moved in sync made my heart flutter, and my mind sure that this was right. we were right.
"you wanna watch this movie?" he said, after we separated.
"let me pee before we do, i'm not in the mood to piss myself."
