Ashley's POV

The next morning Ari and I get up early and make breakfast for everyone . Matt comes in his wheelchair and looks at us suspiciously .

" Where are you guys going ? "

I bit my lip nervously . I glance at Ari and she nods .

" To see Mitchy . "

My voice cold and rough as her dirty name comes out of my mouth .

Cameron stands next to the doorway , tears in his eyes , threatening to come out at any second .

" She committed suicide last night .. "

Ari looks at me confused and I back .

" What do you mean she committed suicide ? We called the station and they said she was fine ," Ari asked .

Cam shakes his head and runs to his bedroom .

Ari and Matt look at me . I sigh .

" I'll be right back guys . "

Cameron's POV

Why am I crying over a bitch that hurt Ashley when I was in love with her ? No , I am still in love with her . I can't think clearly right now .

A knock on the door gathers my attention .

Ashley's head pops in .

" Can we talk Cam ? "

I nod slightly , wiping my tears away .

She grabs my hand .

" Cam . I am so sorry she committed suicide . If I had knew I would have been by your side holding you and helping you through this . I would . I love you Cameron . You're the brother I wish I had . "

Great . I'm a brother to her .

" It's okay . Oh , babe don't cry over me please . I'm not worth crying for . "

She laughs , but a bitter laugh .

" After all this shit we have gone through . You are worth crying for Cam . You were there for me with the Hayes and Ari drama . When I woke up in the hospital you were there for me . Holding my hand , eyes closed , repeatedly saying , " I love you Ashley . Please wake up . " When Mitchy hit me , you were there . When Hayes and Mahogany happened . You were there . Not once was I there and I feel bad now . Thank you so much . "

She cries harder than ever . More than anything . I pull her into a hug and we sit there hugging each other until , surprisingly, she falls asleep in my arms . She has me in a grasp so I can't get out . I decided to stay like that for the moment being . Holding her felt right .

" I love you Ashley . Not like a sister . More than that . I love you so much . "

I'm shocked when I hear her say faintly .

" I love you more Cameron . "

My eyes widen . Holy shit . I call Nash and he helps me tuck her in my bed so she can sleep . He doesn't ask any questions . He just decided to text me .
