The next morning, Marie awoke to multiple texts from the only brunette boy on her mind as of late. As she read them, she smiled as her cheeks flushed to a certain degree.

cameron 🐨
i know it's really
early in the morning
and if you're still
asleep, i'm sorry to
be texting you
at this hour.
i just thought i'd
text you before i
head to Epcot at Walt
Disney World for a
majority of my day.
even though i don't
know you all too well,
just like you said, you
mean a lot to me.
i don't say this lightly.
you do mean a lot to me.
i know i basically just
repeated myself more
than once, but i thought
i'd do that in case you
doubt me with that
particular statement.
anyways, i just arrived.
text me when you can.
i hope you have a good
day once you wake up.
sleep well, M

She couldn't believe how sweet he was being. Even just for him to leave her all those messages, it warmed her heart.

Once she was dressed, she went down to the kitchen, she served herself breakfast, sat beside Grace and ate. After she finished her breakfast, she stood.

To get the attention of her younger sister, Grace spoke up. "I'm sorry about being so out of focus in the middle of our talk last night after texting mom and dad. Do you still want to talk, with coffee this time, for a slight change?"

Marie nodded and said, "I'd like that." After leaving the kitchen, she walked into the family room and sat on one of the couches.

Grace stated, "Before you went to sleep, I told you what I said so that you could keep it between the two of us. Anything new you want to tell me?"

Marie said nothing as she unlocked her phone and showed Grace the texts that Cameron had sent her while she had still been asleep.

Grace looked up at Marie, her mouth open as she said, "These only further prove dad's statement after Priscilla's wedding."

Marie smiled softly as she remembered the conversation from only nights ago.

Grace said, "You don't have to believe me but it's true. He even clarified it, twice, so..."

Marie smirked. "I know he did. It just took me by surprise, I guess. I wasn't expecting him to say that I meant a lot to me. I mean, we barely know each other..."

Grace snickered, "That's true, but it was the same way for Giselle and Robert and yet...they fell for each other."

Marie rose an eyebrow as she spoke, "I can't believe you used an Enchanted reference for that."

"It helped, though, didn't it?" Grace asked.

Marie nodded as she smiled.

Hours later, Marie picked up her phone and went to her messages that had been looked at while she had talked to Grace.

Marie smiled at the conversation that she had just had. Grace was right; he really was treating her kindly even though he didn't know her as well as her family did and he truly did care for her, that much she had gathered or noticed. To know those things made her happy, but more happy to know that they came from Cameron.
