Best Friend's Brother | Cameron Boyce |

Chapter 6

It's been a few days, and I'm officially in love with the Boyce family. They're all so different, with their outstanding personalities, but yet they're all the same. Their house is always warm and gives you this amazing vibe that makes you never want to leave, and you can always feel the love as it wanders through the air. It is amazing. 

Ellie, Maya and I have grown extremely close. We tell each other everything and lately Maya has been showing a lot of her clown side. The one thing I adore about the Boyce family is how much they treat Ellie like their own. Of course they have to, but I feel like Victor and Libby have another reason for it. I can almost feel it, but, it's just a feeling. 

Cameron and I have been getting close to. He's very witty and turns anything negative into something positive. He always find a way, and if there is no way at all, he'll make it. That's what I love about Cameron ( as a friend ), he's just a good person with a great heart, and has an amazing personality. 

Libby and Victor remind me a whole lot of my parents too. Libby is an easygoing mother, so laid back on things, and Victor is the strict type. He doesn't take strict to a whole new level, which is good, and sometimes shows his child-like side.

We had just finished having dinner and Libby and Victor had gone upstairs to get ready for some occasion. 

"Where's Cameron?" Ellie asks, putting already dry dishes into their cabinets. 

"He's asleep upstairs." I reply. 

"He normally eats dinner." Maya says, a worried look appearing on her face.

"Maybe he ate a big lunch?" Ellie suggests.

"Maybe." Maya shrugs. 

My phone begins to ring and I look at Maya. 

"It's alright." Maya smiles. 

I nod, quickly dry my hands and walk out of the kitchen with my phone in my hand. I answer it as I walk outside. 

"Hey, Amb." 

"Josh!" I smile. "It's been long."

"Yea, we've been waiting for your call." He sounds almost upset but quickly changes the tone of his voice. "So, how's America?"

"It's great!" I exclaim. "How're you and Si?"

"Well, Im doing well." Josh says and I chuckle. "Si's just stressed out."

"What? Why?"

"He keeps complaining about how John keeps giving him mixed signals and stuff," Josh says then sighs. "And I keep telling him I'm not you, so I'm not the person he should be talking about this to, but he insists he needs to vent, and I'm the only person who can handle him talk and talk."

"Well..can you handle him talk and talk?"

"I try to, Amber. I try being there for him, and I understand how much John means to him, but..I just can't." 

"You should talk to John." I say. "Ask him stuff about Si, what's working and what's not. Give Si some..points."

"You're right." Josh chuckles. "What would I do without you?"

"Nothing." I smile. "I'm amazing."

After about twenty minutes, I say goodbye and Josh wishes me well. I walk back inside and see Victor leading Cameron, looking very confused, down the stairs, step by step. Libby's behind Cameron, massaging his back, and I look at Ellie and Maya, who walk out of the kitchen. Libby gives me a small smile and after Victor leads Cameron into the living room, she walks up to me, looking nervous and worried.
