Rather Pretend (Cameron Dallas)

Chapter Fifteen: Vengeance

She was mine- AJ Rafael

Chapter 15

The smell of burgers are captivating my nose, making me hungry. Jenny and I decided to eat burgers from Army Navy for lunch. My life was kind of sad 2 days ago though. With Trevor, the betrayal of Cameron, Jenny's problem with Carter, and such little things that makes me sad.

But there's no time for sadness today, because it's time for sweet revenge.

Jenny's life changed when all of those things happened. She became more sad and her hyper mega scale lessened. It was agonizing watching her cry inside her room without knowing that I'm watching her.

I felt it and I'm here to help.

"So, what time are we going to do it?" My voice was excited and giddy. I always love revenge. I've been doing it since that day. So probably I'm an expert in this.

"Chill girl. I'm texting him right now." She grins while typing something in her phone. I munch on the steak as I savor each moment of heaven.

"Done!" She exclaims and we stand up, getting our small bags with our essentials inside. We hurry going to my car as Nash sits down the driver's seat.

Jenny POV

Carter and I will meet in the Burnham Park since that's the place where we 'met'. It's funny because I think It was love at first sight. He was sitting in one of those benches with a phone in his hand and earphones plugged in his ears while he closes his eyes. I hid in the bushes as I stare at him endlessly. But sooner or later, he noticed me.

Everything is now in the past. I won't waste minutes of my life thinking about everything. I felt what Amanda felt. I understand everything now.

Everything made sense. From the start till the present.

Carter: Hey babe. I'll be coming there in 5.

Jenny: Sure ;)

So much for sarcasm. He deserves it anyway. I look at the windows as cars pass by. I flinch when a hand squeezes mine. It's Amanda's.

"It's okay." She smiles and I nod in assurance. For the whole ride, I just space out while thinking things. Things that I want to be right.

But I can't.

The park is secluded. Not that secluded but there's no people in it. The swing swings when the wind blows down the park, making my hair messy. Nash and Amanda also went down the car, scanning the place.

I scan the place as well. Carter starts to walk towards the bench, slowly sitting down. Scanning the place for me.

"You need to be strong." I murmur quietly to make sure nobody heard me.

I smile at him and he stands. He puts his hand in his pocket while walking towards me. I look at Amanda and she nods.

Let's start the plan.

I hug him immediately and he hugs back. His eyes landed on Nash, sitting down the hood in his car.

"Why is he here?" Carter says while his face darkened with anger. I always know that Carter can't stand Nash around. He has this hard spot on him for no reason.

"He brought me here." I reply while hiding my smile that causes to appear. He runs going to him and grips Nash's collar and everything around me stopped. The only sight I see is Nash on the floor with a fist smashing his face and he doesn't have a plan to fight back.

"Stop!" I shout, struggling to keep them away. "Just please stop." My knees are weak that causes me to sit down the road. Nash's face is full of blood, but none in Carter's.

"How dare you cheat on me?!" Carter yells. What?

"Excuse me?" I answer back with amusement in my eyes. He puts is hands in his hair, holding it tightly.

"Don't you get it? He likes you Jenny. And I won't allow any other guy that can break our relationship." He rants. I'm so close to my anger range.

"Really? Who cares Carter? I never cheated. You did!" I tried to make my voice as calm as possible but it resulted as a shout. Amanda starts to appear in the picture.

"What?"

Really. This guy is acting as if nothing happened. This dipshit.

"You cheated on me Carter! I saw you with a girl. You thought you would trick me with your obvious lies. You liar!" His face seems weak and pale. He didn't reply anything though.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Forgive me please. Just please. We can start again Jenny. We can start a new life." He says in a fast way and I shake my head.

"No. Were done. Were over. Goodbye." I speak softly and left.

Nash groans as I clean the blood in his face. We're currently in his house since I'm cleaning the mess on his face.

"You should have fought back." I mutter while applying more pressure in the cloth.

"Nah. It'll make things worse." He replies. Nash is a good person and I know that.

His jaw is throbbing and bruises are found in his face. He looks horrible but there's this question that is bothering me since the incident.

"Do you like me?" It slips out without my assurance. His eyes seems wide as I said it. He looks away without answering me.

"Nash."

He looks at me straight in the eye and he slowly nods. It hit me like a truck. Everything that happened. It was clear, from the crying incident, the times he helped me. He likes me after all. He likes me.

I never thought this will be possible, because I liked him too. Heck, I liked him since 6th grade. But I didn't show it. I'm way too out of his league.

But the important thing is that he likes me. For all these years of waiting, it came true.

But I can't make him a rebound.
