18.

pov. y/n.

This past week had been a bit rough on me. I was still in the process of healing and my emotions were all over the place. I felt a bit bad, because I had begun arguing with Cam over the most stupid shit. It was all on my part and I stressed him out.

I slept in my own bed for most of the week and it was hard because I was so used to sleeping next to Cam that the lack of body warmth next to me kept me awake.

I lie in my bed, eyes still opem, staring at the ceiling. I slowly sit up and drag myself out of bed, my feet hitting the cold wood flooring. Making my way to the bathroom I turn on the lamp in the room and turn the bathroom light on. Squinting, I attempt to look at myself in the mirror. I'm greeted with dark circles and extremely noticeable bags under my eyes.

"Jesus christ..." I mutter, before turning on the shower and walking back into my room to grab a fresh pair of clothes. I lay them out on my bed and walk back into the bathroom, shutting the door and getting ready to shower.

-

I turn the handle and sigh as the water cuts off. Grabbing the towel that was draped over the shower door and wiped my face, and began to dry off my body.

Stepping out, I wrap the towel around my body. I open the door and walk into the room, taking the towel off mt body and changing into the clean clothes I had. I hear a knock on the door and I throw my dirty clothes into a basket and open the door.

I'm greeted with Cam's sweet face.

"Hey, goodmorning. You showered this early?" He asks as I let him in the room, shutting the door behind me after he's inside.

"Yeah.. I couldn't sleep so I thought showering might help me relax a little bit." I told him, earning a nod.

There's a moment of awkward silence between us, before I cut it off.

"I want to apologize for my hectic behavior this week... I feel really bad.. I'm sorry." I spoke softly, looking down.

Cam jolts around and comes over to me and wraps his arms around me.

"Hey, its okay, baby." He whispers softly.

"This week's been a little rough and I think I'm getting my period soon because my emotions are all over the place. I've also barely slept all week because I've been sleeping alone and I'm so exhausted..." I told him, watching him listen intently and nodding.

"I understand, you're still trying to get used to being back and yeah, your hormones are gonna fuck with you a lot. Do you want to take a nap now? I'll cuddle with you and take a nap with you even though the mornings just started." Cam asked me and I nodded, hugging him gently.

"That sounds really nice right now. I don't need a whole lot of sleep, just a few hours should be okay." I told him and he nodded, letting go of me and crawling onto my bed, motioning me to come join him.

I oblige and crawl into bed next to him, cuddling with him and pulling the blanket up. He played with my hair and planted a gentle kiss on my forehead.

"I love you, y/n." He spoke softly.

A cheesey smile overcame my face.

"I love you too, Cam." I said and closed my eyes, letting the rhythm of his chest rising and falling put me to sleep.

-

After a few hours, I felt Cam carefully maneuvering his way out of bed, trying not to wake me up, but failing.

He made it out of the bed and I rolled over, my eyes fluttering and looking over at him. Cam paused in his tracks and looked at me.

"Shit, I didn't want to wake you..." He said and walked back over to the bed as I sat up.

"It's okay, I needed to wake up anyways." I spoke softly, yawning and stretching. I got up out of bed and shivered lightly as the cold air hit my body.

I walked over to my chair and grabbed the sweatshirt that hung off the side and pulled it onto my body. "Much better.."

Cam looked at me and smiled. "I need to use the bathroom, so I'll be out in a minute." He said before walking into the bathroom and shutting the door.

I nod and open up the door and walk out to the main living room. Mason was passed out on the couch with Jay. I giggled and made my way through and into the kitchen, grabbing myself some breakfast.

I sat and ate for a minute, scrolling through my phone, looking at the news.

I heard Cam stumbled out into the living room and he stopped when he saw Jay and Mason. He looked up at me and smiled before taking a picture of them. He hopped over to the kitchen and sat beside me.

"What'd you make?" He asked

"Cereal." I said. "Lucky charms specifically..."

"Sounds good." Cam stated before getting up and making himself some.

I continued scrolling through the news feeds and sighed as the typical dumb shit was always in the feed. Gang fights, territory lines, the economy, etc etc...

It still felt odd to be back home. I wasn't used to seeing everyone after being away for four fucking years. Hell, I wasn't even used to seeing Cameron. I know this would take some time... I just hope I could get through it faster.

As long as I have them, I'll be okay.
