Thomas

I love Cameron. I really do, but sometimes he could say some stupid shit. We were just outside on the balcony, sharing a drink, telling each other stupid jokes. This was the Cameron we all knew though. Silly Cameron. When he got the way he did with Dove, it was like he was a whole different person. The night was calm, the music was chill.

"And so I grabbed the bitch." Cameron was saying. "I was like what the fuck you mean you're gonna tell? You just asked me, to suck my dick. I had interest no interest in you."

"Oh really?" I asked, taking a sip of my drink and laughing. "Sounds like you had at least some interest if you were down with it."

"Yeah." he said. "Maybe I was a little." He chuckled.

"Cam." I heard Dove say behind us. He turned around to look at her.

"What's up?" he asked, stepping away from the rail we were leaning over.

"I got you this." she said, so I turned around to see what it was. Out of the bag came a beautiful watch.

"Aww, thanks baby." he said, giving her a kiss on her forehead before kissing her on her lips. She does all of this, just for Cameron to treat her like she's garbage. That was my brother though and not an argument I was trying to pick up. The most all of the boys could do was trying to keep small talking him into being honest with Dove, hoping she would decide to stay with him, and just stop acting like how he is. "I'll be inside a little later or you could just come hangout here when you're ready. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get in the hot tub."

"Don't look so sad, Thomas." she said to me, giggling. "Sophie got all the boys something, so you're gift is inside."

"Oh." I said. "I'm not phased." I smiled at her, but if I was Cameron, I would of went out and bought he something nice in return. He wasn't going to do that though. I heard them kiss again before Cameron returned back to where he was standing.

"I have such a bomb ass girl." he said, smiling down at the watch she bought him.

"Are you ready to give up all the naughty shit you've been doing to keep her though?" I ask, smirking. He looked back at me before sipping on his drink.

"Do you even know me?" he asked. I was about to respond, when Booboo walked out.

"I heard it's hot tub night!!" he shouted, a random girl walking beside him.

"It sure is!" Cameron shouted back. "Have you spoken to August recently?"

"Yeah." I say. "We text often."

"You like her?" he asked me.

"She's a decent girl." I say. He shrugs, taking another sip of his drink. A few minutes later, Taj and China were walking out, already dressed in their swimwear.

"I won't even try to touch you." I heard Taj say.

"You better not because I'll rip your dick off." she said back.

"So does that mean you wanna touch it?" he asked.

"Bye Taj." she said, playfully pushing him in his chest. When were those two going to get together? I ran my hands through my hair, pulling my pants down because I already had my swimwear on and then Dove walked out, looking beautiful as ever.

"There's my girl." Cameron said, setting his gift down on one of the tables and walking over to her. I couldn't help but get mad, knowing that I could treat her better. Cameron and I went way back though, so I wouldn't dare jeopardized our friendship. I watched as the both of them joined the others in the hot tub. I sighed, turning my attention to looking back over the railing.

"You getting in bro?" Taj asked me.

"In a minute." I respond, downing the rest of my drink.

"Alright drunky." he said, taking a seat next to China, drink in his hand. I was zoned out in my own thoughts when I heard a voice talking to me.

"What's a handsome man like you doing, standing up there all alone?" the voice said. I peered down, looking to see who was talking to me. It was August. I smiled down at her, biting my lip.

"Well I'm not exactly alone, but you can come on up. The door's open." I say to her. She smiled, before making her way up the front entrance stairs.

"Ooo. Thomas's girlfriend is here." I heard Booboo say. I ran inside to make me another drink, meeting up with August. She wrapped her arms around me, pulling me into a hug and of course I hugged her back.

"I missed you." she said to me.

"I missed you too." I said back, planting a kiss on her lips before walking her outside and into the hot tub with the rest of the crew.

"Taj." China said. "On God bro if your leg touches me one more time."

"Don't act like you don't like it." he said to her, chuckling. Sitting down, I looked over at Dove and Cameron who were already making out. I wrapped my arms around August's waist, pulling her in closer to me. Grabbing for the stereo remote on the side of the hot tub, I turned up the volume to the playlist I had going while Cameron and I were talking.

I hated watching the two. Dove should be happy with me, not him. He didn't deserve her. He deserved no parts of her. How could he just lie to her face like that and act like he wasn't cheating. I don't care if he hasn't fucked anyone. He's been talking to other girls, making out with other girls, and dancing on them. In my book, that is 100% cheating.

"I'll be right back." Dove said to Cameron, who bit his lip as he watched her walk out the hot tub.

"No boners in the pool please." Booboo said.

"Don't make me come over there and slap you." Cameron replied. If anything, I should be coming over there and slapping you, I thought to myself. My thoughts were interrupted by August, who started kissing on the side of my face. That relaxed me a little bit because I truly did like her. We weren't an item or anything, but I didn't mind seeing her a couple of times. With August kissing on me, I couldn't help but divert my eyes away from Cameron, who was smiling down into his phone, probably texting one of the girls we met on our way back from the park.

My lips met August's, our tongue's colliding in swirls of passion. For the first time since I've been outside talking to Cam, my thoughts weren't on him and Dove, but instead on having another romantic night with August.
