I'll be your light

Bree's pov

When I walked through that door I wasn't prepared for what I saw. There was Cameron looking at himself shirtless in the mirror, but it wasn't a pleasant sight. He was covered in gashes and bruises. I quickly ran over to him and touched his chest. His heartbeat instantly quickened.

"Your cousin did this didn't he?" I said as he nodded.
"At first I thought maybe it was your dad but after what you told me I know now. Why did you go back?" I said looking up at him with tears beginning to cloud my blue eyes.
"I don't know"
"Cameron...." I started as he looked down.
"Please don't hide things from me, don't push me away"
"I'm sorry I can't help it" he said stepping back while putting his shirt back on, I sighed.
"Look I have to start getting ready for class. Do you have to use the bathroom?" I said looking at him, he looked so sad.
"No" he shortly replied as he laid down
"Okay" I frowned while grabbing a black tank top, black shorts, and my Bring Me The Horizon hoodie and headed to the bathroom to change. Once I was done I decided to just throw my hair up in a bun, change my nose ring to a purple hoop. Even though today was the start of classes I didn't think I need to impress anyone.

"I'll be back later I guess" I said grabbing my bookbag and phone
"Okay" He mumbled as I walked out the door an headed to my first class, English. Once I walked in I saw empty seat in the back and made my way through the desks.

"Hi" a purple haired girl said.
"Hey I'm bree" I smiled
"Chelsea" she replied while shaking my hand.
"You a freshman I'm guessing?" she laughed
"Yeah how'd you know?"
"Cuz this an honors sophomore class with a few freshmen and I've never seen you around"
"Oh well yeah"
"You like it here?" she smiled as the classroom began to fill with students.
"Yeah I guess"
"I love your hoodie" she complimented
"Oh thanks you like bring me the horizon?"
"Like them? oh girl that's an understatement I love them. I've met them 4 times" she smiled
"Lucky!" I laughed as class began.

An hour and a half later class ended
"
Hey your cool what's your number? we need to hang out more often maybe go to the party Friday?" She smiled while writing down her number.
"Yeah that would be fun would I be able to bring a friend?"
"Of course! I'm guessing your boyfriend?" she winked
"Oh he's not my boyfriend just my roommate" I blushed
"Ohhh who?"
"Cameron Pierce" I mumbled, and to my surprise. She didn't judge me like everyone else.
"Oh is he cool? he seems quiet and kinda cocky" she laughed, it was true but he has reasons.
"He has his moments" I laughed
"Oh well I'll see you around" she waved
"Okay" I smiled. Thank god I've finally made a girl friend that I can vent to instead of only my little brother.

"Hey" I smiled as I walked into the room to see Cameron shirtless again, even though his chest and back we're covered in cuts and bruises he was still attractive.
"Hi" he mumbled while typing on his laptop
"School work?" I said while setting down my bag.
"Yeah"
"Okay I'll leave you alone for a bit" i smiled as I climbed up onto the top bunk while putting my headphones in.
By the time the first song was over I began to feel really tired so I decided to take a mini power nap until Cameron was done with his essay.

This year might not be as bad as I thought it would be.
