I'll be your light

chapter 43

Bree's pov
I woke up around 4:30 in the morning to Cameron walking through the door. Where was he? Was he cheating on me? Why should I care? Are we still together?
"Where were you?"
"At a coffee shop" he shortly replied
"By yourself?"
"Nope"
"Oh"
"Yeah"
"What's wrong?" I questioned, something was definitely up.
"Tristan isn't perfect, Bree. He's a huge reason why I'm as fucked up as I am"
"Why do you say that? He seems cocky but decent" i said sitting up throwing my still wet hair into a bun as Cameron looked at me and laughed.
"What's so funny?"
"He's a monster .. he helped beat me with my dad growing up" he frowned. Okay I was completely taken back an confused.
"I thought your cousin would beat you, you never said anything about your father .. only that he died along with your mother" as soon as I mentioned his mom his whole expression changed and he looked like he was going to cry.
"Well .. My mom and dad fought quite often and my dad I guess didn't take his anger out on her, instead he did with me along with the help of Tristan."
"Oh .. I'm sorry Cameron"
He continued, "after my parents died our grandparents took Tristan and I until I started to act up and get angry and sad, then they refused to let me stay too saying I was 'too damaged' so I was sent to live with my older cousin who started abusing me, when Tristan turned 13 and started to visit me, he started abusing me too, they did some horrible stuff to me. I Would love to forget all of it. " he finished as he let out a long sigh.
"I'm so-"
"I don't need your sympathy bree" he snapped, I thought we were over the asshole moody Cameron. Guess not
"I'm not trying to sympathize you, dumbass" I laughed
"I love you bree"
"I love you Cameron"
"Are we even together?" He laughed lightly
"Well. I was taking our shower sex last night as a yes" I blushed, thankfully he didn't see due to the dark room.
"It was amazing he said leaning into my ear and lightly kissing my neck.
"I swear you're always horny" I laughed as I pushed him back. Too tired to mess around.
"Well now that you're pregnant aren't your hormones gonna be on overdrive?" He winked
"Cameron don't start"
"Oh come on" he laughed
"Cameron I need to tell you something .."
"What?" He said, I swear if I could see his face clearly now he'd probably be deathly pale. Every time he hears news .. he always expects the complete worse. well this news is bad.
"My mom isn't gonna like when she finds out I'm pregnant. She might make me get an abortion"i said tearing up.
"No! She's not going to take my child from me" he said while putting his hand over my stomach. I wasn't even far along at all. My belly wasn't poking out, you couldn't feel kicking. Yet him protectively covering my stomach made my heart melt.
"I'll be the dad I wish I had" he said kissing me lightly as we laid back down and soon fell into a peaceful sleep, only to be woken up hours later to Tristan banging on our door...
