IN BETWEEN.

Chapter 3

Aubrey's P.O.V

"Let's go inside. Shall we?" Cameron says smiling down at me.

That smile though...

"Sure." I say smiling back.

"You guys get going, I have to go for a bit." Ariana says heading to her car.

"Where are you going?" I say feeling scared to being left all by myself.

"Well my car is running out of gas, and I don't want us to get stranded while dropping you off."

"But is there any gas station around here?" Cameron says in a concerned tone.

"Well, according to Google maps, there is one around the corner." she says sharply.

"Bree why don't you go with Cameron. I'll catch up later." Ariana continues.

"Oh okay. Call me when you get back." I say as we head inside.

"Yeah yeah honey. Go have fun. Cameron makes sure she has fun."

"Yes ma'am. Now get going."

Wow, they must really know each other for Ariana to entrust me with him. The question though is how they know each other. Ariana always tells me about the friends she makes, what happened with this one. Although, she might have considering that he looks familiar as well as his name.

As we enter inside, I am welcomed with an unfamiliar strong smell which I'm guessing is what alcohol and dancing teenagers smells like.

Gross.

The party is not like all those disgusting club parties, its more of a celebration; a wild one actually.

"Hey sis." I turn to see my elder brother smirking.

I wonder what he's doing here.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" I ask really surprised.

"Are you forgetting that I'm in this school?"

"No, it's just that this party is for outgoing 8th graders and seniors."

"And who says they're the only ones that came for this party?."

I should have known.

"Wait, so there are people from other grades here as well?"

"Well just your class, freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors."

"And by juniors he means the future seniors a.k.a us." Cameron says pointing at him and Jack.

That's weird.

"Wait you guys know each other?" I ask confused.

"Bree don't you remember Cameron?" Jack asks as I shake my head.

Now this is getting twisted.

"Seriously, Ariana wasn't kidding when she says you have a memory the size of a bird's eye." Jack says chuckling.

I'll get him back for that, but first, I need to know what he's on about.

"You seriously don't remember my best friend Cameron that moved to another city when I was younger? The Cameron that I was sad about? The Cameron that was part of our squad? You don't remember?"

And that's when it dawned on me that the guy I was standing in front of was my long time crush Cameron. The one that I planned on confessing my feelings to but was too scared. I still remember that when he moved, I didn't step out from my room for two full days because I had a complete breakdown. I told my family that my goldfish died and apparently I had to kill Mr wiggles because of him.
