Forbidden Love

Chapter 19

I wake up to the smell of bacon and some murmuring coming from the kitchen. I stretch a little and smile slightly, remembering last night.

It was nice to be reconnected with Cameron and Mya again. For once there was no drama and no worries. With them I could escape it all.

It isn't until I sit upright on my bed that the full memories of the night before swarm my head, along with a pounding head ache.

"I now remember why I don't like to drink with you often." I type into my phone and send to Cameron.

"Ah I see you've awoken from your hung-over slumber. Good morning Cupcake, you know you missed those drunken nights with me!"

"Yeah but I definitely didn't miss the head ache. And stop calling me cupcake!"

"I call you want I want, Cupcake ;)"

"Who are you over there texting?" My mom says standing in the doorway of my room with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Just Cameron" I say simply, looking back down at my phone.

"That's great honey! I haven't seen him in a while. You should invite him to dinner." I nod my head as she turns and walks back down the stairs.

"Be down in a minute!" I call behind her and finally slip out of bed. Grabbing my phone I send Cam another quick text.

"You should come over later, dinner maybe? It appears my mom missed you too"

I walk over to my bathroom and close the door, starting the shower. Having a en suite bathroom is no doubt my favorite part of my room. Its so much closer and makes my life so much easier.

I turn on Pandora and slip out of my clothes, stepping under the hot water. I close my eyes and hum to the music and I wash my body.

Soon enough I'm out and searching my dresser for some undergarments. I dry off and slip them on, walking over to my closet to find something to wear. I grab some plain skinny jeans and a floral top and throw it on. I put my still semi-wet hair in a side braid and head downstairs after brushing my teeth.

To my surprise Cameron is standing over the island in my kitchen stuffing his face with bacon and French toast.

MY bacon.

"Is that my bacon?" I almost yell as I make my way over to Cam. Everyone knows I love bacon and he has the audacity to eat MY bacon.

"Good morning Cupcake" he smiles up at me with a mouth full of chewed up food. "Calm down Miss Grumpy pants I saved you two slices and there's more French toast on a plate in the microwave for you,

"Two pieces is not enough I need at least three to satisfy my addiction" I steal a piece off his plate and make my way over to the microwave, grabbing my plate out of it.

"It's not nice to snatch food off of other people's plate" he sticks his tongue out at me and laughs.

"It's not nice to pop up at someone's house unannounced and it's also very not nice to eat someone else's food without asking first" I stick my tongue out back at him and grabbing the orange juice out the fridge. I grab two cups and pull up one of the bar stools next to Cameron.

"Very not nice does not sound like proper grammar. And in my defense your mom let me in and told me to help myself. I also responded to your text about dinner saying I would be here in ten minutes so it's not my fault you didn't check your phone" I open my mouth to reply but am rudely interrupted by snatched the orange juice from me and pouring himself a glass before pouring one for me.
