**CAMILLA**

THURSDAY.

The next morning, I woke up in my bed.

The bed was assigned to me at Dylan's place.

Speaking of which, where is he? I mean I recall watching a movie with him, the Notebook I think.

I fell asleep at the closing credits and now I'm back in bed. He picked me up again and brought me here.

Wow.

I blushed slightly at the thought of being in his arms.

Why can't I recall it perfectly?

This stupid habit of forgetting things needs to end.

I blinked my eyes a few times to get the sleep off my eyes after which I stood up to get ready for school.

Taking off my clothes, I hopped into the shower for a quick.

It's a few minutes after seven meaning I do not have to rush for anything.

For my outfit today, I decided to go in Jeans and a T-Shirt.

It takes roughly fifteen minutes to shower then I got dressed and stood at the edge of the bed.

    "**CAMILLA**THURSDAY.To move away from Dyaln and closer to my dad, also to wipe that nasty scowl off his face, the glares aimed at Dylan and I, I hugged them.Dad's eyes went behind me to glare continuously. I'm getting a lot of questions on that issue at the end of this. I just know it.After hugging them for what seemed like hours, but was probably a few minutes, I disengaged full of smiles. Fake smiles.How to make this any less awkward?"You're back." I beamed happily. I already said that. Awkward. Twitching my toe nails, I gazed at my mom at that in upmost confusion. They were not happy, well my dad wasn't."Not necessarily. We aren't back full, but yeah we're around for a few days. We'll be gone before the end of next week." Dad replied nonchalantly, mostly focused at throwing glancing at Dylan."There is a holiday today and Dylan was trying to explain a thesis to me."I stated to try and clear th

    **CAMILLA**FRIDAY.Something strange occurred last night.Well aside from staying indoors throughout the afternoon, head buried in tons of paperwork, ending up going two weeks ahead of my class, that aside my parents texted that they'll stay at some hotel for the night.It'll be too risky returning here at such a late hour.Since that was settled, I was left wondering who scrambled into the house at such a late hour The noise jolted me out of sleep.I heard the door open then clip shut wondering who came in.I knew it was Dylan. My subconscious. I refused to admit it.Did he come home after midnight? Did he spend the entire day outside? Doing what?Only Dylan can answer that yet my curiosity got the best of me.Before going to bed I concluded on one answer. He spent the day with someone else.****The next morning, I woke up refreshed. Every time there's a holiday, I feel better returning to school the next day.Since I

    **CAMILLA RENÉE**FRIDAYAfter more than a minute of mental breakdown supported with crying my eyes out in front of her, I paused and ended in short sobs.“Don't you have class or something?”I asked, reaching for some tissue.“Could ask you the same? There's nothing wrong in being ten minutes late.”She cackled.What's humorous about any of this?I gave her that look. The look that says if I'm crying, laughing is not on my list.“Bad joke. I shouldn't try to make any given the circumstances.”She smacked her forehead, dropping her hand as soon as it dawned on her. I've met someone who does the same thing as me.The aura around Miranda was fascinating. She's moved from the point of a stranger to an acquaintance.

    **CAMILLA RENÉE**FRIDAY,His comment had me hissing loudly, it got more attention swayed in our direction.I'm making this worse aren't I?No. I'm not at fault. This is his fault. Dylan's fault. I need to remember that.His presence had me feeling light-headed or was it the hundreds of eyes on us? Maybe both.Okay. He needs to leave."Please leave."Instead of accepting my wishes, taking his tray and Leaving, my comment only seemed to amuse him more since he was smirking and grinning at intervals. Either he's too blind to see how big of a scene he's causing or he doesn't care. Yup.Dylan does not care. In fact I'm beginning to think these kind of things are what turns him on. His weird fetish."Did you miss me?"He repeated for the nth time. I glar

    **CAMILLA RENÉE**FRIDAY.I helped him clean up his blood smudged cheeks, his nose also had blood dripping out a little.They stroked each other as though they were both a pair of punching bags, each of them getting their fair share of pain.But Kyle got it worse, he couldn't move when I left.A wave of concern washed over me.Was he alright? He's a lying cheater, but I still care. Even though I shouldn't. I'm sure he's fine. He has to be.I ran my eyes through his face, titling each side with my palm so I could be sure he was cleaned up.When that was certain, I placed the towel into the bowl and squeezed. The water had turned red already.“Thank you.”“It's my fault you two had a fallout, it only makes sense that I should be the one to clean you up.”I explained with a small smile.“It's not your fault I beat him up, he deserved that for being an ass. I'll do it again if necessary, you don't need t

    **CAMILLA RENÉE**FRIDAY"We need to talk." My voice was cold and void of any sentiment, exactly what he earned. He shook, squinting his lids while glancing for a few seconds.His eyes held so much hurt. He should've considered all this before fucking Eva.I led the way and he followed. We got to another class it's the same one he tried to kiss me in.I kept my hand down jostling the irritating thoughts low while striving hard not to smack him."That stunt you pulled during lunch..." I trailed off fuming with anger, he drooped his head. Of course. What in heaven's name could he use as a defence. "Let's hold off on what you pulled at lunch today. First off, the reason why we are at this point at all. You cheated. I'm not sure I've said it your false without any bull shit to cover things up, so I'm saying it now. You fucking cheated on me. We were in a relationship, you had sex with another girl. That

    **CAMILLA RENÉE**FRIDAY NIGHT.I didn't even know that shirt still existed, Dylan didn't strike me as the type of guy who would keep a shirt for over two years.Unless he bought one like that. Exactly like that.I remembered how it looked. Dylan rarely puts on anything else other than a black shirt, but this one had a grey lining from each side down till the hem of the shirt.Maybe he had more than one of it.I know it's just a shirt to him, but this particular one held a lot of emotions and memories for me. I snapped out of my trance the moment I realised I was staring at him wordlessly. Even if I tried to act like it wasn't affecting me, I would fall woefully at it."Camilla...." He sounded worried. Why wouldn't he be? I'm acting like an obsessed lover or a confused student, staring at him like I saw a ghost. I cleared my throat and shook my head a little."I'm sorry, I was thinking about something.""Clearly...." He tr

    CAMILLA RENÉEFRIDAY NIGHT.Agreeing to my suggestion, she pulled the drink to her end, took my shot glass and poured one for herself.I grabbed the bottle, lifting it to cling against her glass."This is to forgetting all about our shitty lives. At least for tonight."We raised our instruments, toasting to my words before having a drink.Letting loose is nice and fun. Drinking from a bottle is exhilarating. I never want this to end.****Miranda didn't return to the girls, according to her they don't pay attention to most things in parties such as these, they just make her tag along for the fun of tortuing her.The students barely noticed us having a drink.It's easier not to care about the eyes around when you're drunk, if I were sober I'd be over cautiously, but now I just don't care.It's amazing.I moved closer to her as she carried on with the explanation.

    CAMILLA RENEE LINCOLN MEMORIAL. It's three pm and there's hardly anyone around. I can't see Harper or Dylan. I'm inside the memorial. My phone began ringing again. "You listened. Now keep walking. You'll get your reward soon." "What do you want?" "You. Forever." He answers in the same computerized voice. Me? I thought his obsession was Dylan. After seven years, he's still psychotic. "W-What are you talking about? Why won't you leave me the fuck alone?" I step forward, checking around. "I can't, even if I tried," I furrow my brows. "Where is Dylan?" "Closer." I shiver "Why did you take him? What do you want?" "I told you, Darlin, you and I. Forever." I search the entire place. It's no longer scanty. It's empty now. Completely empty. I walk out and try trailing the surrounding. Even security has vanished. Wait, a minute. Dylan calls me Darlin. Did Harper take that up now? Has he gotten even more crazy? "Have you figured it out yet?" "Dylan." I whisper. "Darlin."

    CAMILLA RENÉEEIGHT YEARS LATER.WILLIAMS MEDICAL CENTER, WASHINGTON."Camilla? Are you done with that patient?"Athena peaked her head in, checking the room to be certain. I nodded my head, stifling a laugh. She strode in, pulled a chair and chuckled while seating."How long did he stay this time?""Two hours. Two pure hours of torture. Listening to him ramble about a woman who's probably shaking her ass on a yacht with another man. It's sad. Funny, but truly sad."Athena poured two glasses of wine for each of us."You deserved it."I bobbed my head in agreement. Sighing, she took a seat across as though she were my patient. I have no clue why his wife suddenly picked her bags and flew half way across the country leaving him devastated. Poor man still loves her, he'll heal. Hopefully.Until then, it's my duty to sit and listen. And he's like a two out of my tough patients. There are some who haven't gotten over dead daughters. Others who are depressed. God I love my job.

    CLAIRE MITCHELL Sixteen days. So much has happened in over two weeks. So much has changed. Before I'd be begged to shut up, now everyone keeps gawking and idling for a word or two out of me.My parents flew out of Cal-U yesterday. They did their best, but I wasn't ready yet. Dylan's mother got close though. All she did was hug me and I sobbed.Yesterday I saw him. Camilla's ex. He knew about everything, so I choose to give the doctor's words a chance and then open up about this entire shit.So here I am, sitting across from him, peaking at his notepad while he scribbles my first and last name."If I gave you a choice between your blood and the one person you loved, who would you pick?"He gawks in shock. Half expecting me to keep quiet throughout. "Is that why you're withdrawn? Because of what Harper did to Dylan?"I chuckle."No. Of course now. I just don't see a reason to talk much unlike before. I'm curious, so I'm asking.""No. You're trying to convince yourself that you're nobod

    MIRANDA COSGROVESATURDAY.“The audacity of you to come here! You animal!”I shriek, knocking my nose, which forces me to step back. “Why does everyone keep hitting me today?”Rocking my head, I disregard the comment he made and what he might mean. He deserves all the punches in the world. “Get the fuck out of my dorm. You better not try to speak with Camilla. Not after what happened. I refuse to let you get close to her.”Shoving a finger in his face, I propped my shoulders to seem taller and more intimidating.“Where is Camilla? Dylan came to my place screaming about how I tried to get her into the dorm. I came back here to make sure she was okay. He got a call and ran off. Have you seen her?”My bag drops to the floor and I panic.“What? He hasn’t found her? He hung up, and I thought, maybe...”I lower my knees and retrieve my cell, dialling Dylan’s number first. Straight to voice mail. I did the same to Camilla. Voice mail.What the hell is happening?“What did you do? What did y

    DYLAN EMERTONSATURDAY.The shot landed beside Camilla's leg, making a dent in the wood. I saw my entire life through my eyes, and Camilla was the only thing I could see.I almost lost her. Harper would've shot Camilla if I hadn't howled. The bullet was inches away from hitting her."I do not have all day D. I would've opted for initials, but they both have Cs."His goons all laughed as he waved the gun in the air. I stomped forward, lifting my chin."You almost hurt her. I would have killed you!""Aww D, we're brothers, remember?"He clicked his tongue, then lifted the gun again."Enough stalling. Choose."I eyed both of them. My family. My whole life. I love them both. I may not love them. I'd be a fool to deceive my brain by saying I loved both of them at the same level. Camilla means more. Camilla will always mean more. But that does not justify killing my cousin. I can't live with that. I'm done thinking about just my needs.She has friends. Parents. May have a boyfriend who also

    DYLAN EMERTONSATURDAY"You had her for two days, give or take! You couldn't allow me to spend a day with her!"I check the ID. it's unknown, but I recognize Miranda's voice. I'd figure out how she got my number later. "What are you talking about?" The more obvious question."Well, Camilla texted, "I had to run." I assume she's with you?"My brows knit together. "She isn't here."Standing up from the bed, I toss a T-shirt on, alarmed."How long was that text?""About three hours ago, I had to watch the movie. Now I can't reach her, and I called you to rant. You better not be fucking again!""Miranda slow down. I haven't seen Camilla since this morning.""Huh? But she texted me that...""Maybe she's at the dorm?""No. I called the landline there. No one answered."My heart skipped a pace."Dylan?""Wait a minute, Camilla never texts in full with me. Much less use words like "Run" Why am I just noticing this?"My heart jumped at another one."I think something happened." No shit. "Whe

    CAMILLA RENÉEFRIDAY."You scent, It's better than I ever imagined."Dylan grunts fill the entire room as he kisses me up to my thighs, snugging his nose over my skin and then pressing his mouth on my inner skin.I moan, giving little regard to how loud I must sound, or who might be attracted to what we were doing.I'm clad in my panties only, which soon meet their fate on the floor. Dylan steps away, holding my gaze as he makes quick words of his shirt.Kneading my legs, I crawl to the edge of the bed, attempting to reach his belt buckle.He passes me a knowing look, chuckles, and then tosses his head back, allowing me room to his body.I peel the pants off his skin, reaching for the waistband of his boxer briefs.His hands meet mine and he halts that movement."Not yet."He grumbles, concealing his head in the corner of my neck."Lay back."His gentle commands ring in my ears. Obeying, I straighten my legs and return my back to the bed, all without breaking his gaze.Smirking, he be

I'd like roughly two per cent more."Simultaneously, we break into laughter."What do you expect to do after graduation? P. I or you're going to work for a firm?""Well Darlin, I like my space, so I don't think I'll be under any company. I'll freelance." A delicate smile jerks my lips."Don't you think it'll be stressful? Having all those limited resources?""I'm very resourceful."He soothes me, pressing several kisses on the side of my head."And you? What are you going to do?""Hospitals. I want to work in a hospital. I'll be able to reach and help more people that way.""But that's a long time from now, we still have three-plus years to go. A lot could occur""You'd expect to change career paths?"He taunts.
