"I should probably get going." I said. "Stay the night." Megan said putting out her bottom lip. "I don't think that's a good idea." I said getting up and grabbing my clothes.

"I hope I got your mind off of whatever it is that you came here for." she said getting up and putting on an oversized tshirt. I didn't say anything, I just grabbed my shirt and slipped it on then grabbed my phone. I started to walk out towards the door and she stopped me right as I opened it.

"You could at least say thank you." she smirked at me. "Thanks I guess."

"Or you could kiss me?" She said before leaning up to kiss me. I thought it would just be a peck on the lips but she slipped her tongue into my mouth. She pulled away long enough to say, "C'mon Cameron just stay. I'll do that thing you like." she smirked.

Not like it would surprise my mom that I didn't come home, so I shrugged and closed the door again. "I knew you'd wanna stay. Lets go." she said pulling me back into her bedroom.

Her parents rarely came home so we didn't ever have to worry about that. I mean Megan and I are basically friends with benefits. We've been doing this since I was a sophomore, and neither of us have felt a connection with each other, so we didn't really have to worry.

She took off the oversized shirt she had just put on and pushed me down onto her bed.

"Cameron get up we have school."

I opened my eyes and saw Megan standing over me already dressed and ready to go.

"Can't we just skip?" I groaned. "No I skipped yesterday and I don't feel like skipping again today." she said. "Fine then I'll skip." I said rolling over.

"No, c'mon just get up and get a shower." She said. I groaned and got up then walked into the bathroom. I turned the water on and got in, washing my hair and body. I climbed out and dried off then wrapped the towel around me.

"Which toothbrush is mine again?" I asked. "Blue one." Megan said as she got onto her phone.

Like I said, Megan and I have been doing this for a while now so I have clothes and a toothbrush at her house.

"Thanks." I said brushing my teeth.

I walked out and grabbed a pair of khakis and a white shirt from one of her dresser drawers. I ran my fingers through my hair fixing it and then I went into her kitchen to get some food. I grabbed a banana and ate it.

"Let's go." I said. She walked out and handed me my phone and we walked to my car. We climbed in and I started the engine. I quickly pulled out of Megan's driveway and started the drive to school. When we pulled into the parking lot we got out and walked into the school together. Lots of people were already here and in their own conversations.

"I'll see you later." Megan said walking down the opposite hallway. I walked to my locker and got my stuff and went into my first class. Zack was already in there sitting down so I sat down next to him and waited for him to talk.

"Two girls in one day? I see." Zack laughed. "Lexi and I didn't have sex." I said.

"Then how'd you get that hickey on your neck?" He smirked. "We were making out and we were gonna have sex but I wasn't really feeling it." I said nonchalantly.

"And Megan? I thought you were done with that?" He rolled his eyes. He never like Megan. "Old habit." I said blankly, shrugging.

"Cameron I talked to Lexi. She told me about what you said." Zack said. I looked up and couldn't meet his eyes.

"I was in the hallway yesterday when you and Kara were yelling at each other. Why didn't you tell me? I'm worried about you." Zack sighed. "I'm fine."

"Hannah is worried about you too." He said as if it would change anything. "Why? This is who I am Zack!" I said. "Have you tried to talk to her?" He asked. "Have I tried? Of course I've tried! So many times! She doesn't want me and I need to move on. I'm fine."

"I'll see if Hannah can talk to her." Zack said. "Why? So she can tell you that I fucked up? That I can't have her? That I mess with too many girls? She doesn't need a guy like me Zack. She deserves better."

"Cameron-" Zack started. "No, lets just drop it." I said right as the teacher walked in. "Alright class lets get started." Mrs. Jones said walking in and passing out a worksheet.

//Arielle's Point of View//

"Arielle?" Hannah asked. "What?" I answered. "Are you okay?"

"I've never been better." I smiled. I was upset that Cameron lied to me but I barely knew him.b"You know that it was all a misunderstanding right?" Hannah asked.

"Yep. We should get to class." I said grabbing the stuff from my locker. "Arielle. I'm your best friend. I know when you're upset."

"Then you'd know when I'm not upset, and I'm not." I smiled at her again. "You should call him."

"No? It was just a fling. We didn't actually believe it would last after we left." I said as if it were obvious. "I think you should call him and give him a chance." she smiled at me as I closed my locker.

"Why don't we focus on you and Zack? He's a good guy and he makes you happy and I can't wait for you guys to finally be together when you go to California for school." I said as we walked down the hallway.

"I haven't told him that I'm coming yet." she said. We walked into our first class and sat down in the back. "What about you? Where are you going to go to college at?" She asked me.

"I wanna go somewhere far from here. Maybe Florida? But I don't wanna leave my brother behind." I sighed. "Just come with me! You've always wanted to go to California. Plus my whole families moving. You know they'd let you come."

"I don't know. What about my brother?" I asked. "He's with your dad. He'll be fine! Arielle please!"

"I'll think about it." I smiled. "That's better than no!" She laughed. I rolled my eyes and listened as my teacher talked.
