After the kiss episode, Ruby made sure to avoid Cameron completely, even though it was almost close to impossible to do. She would always wake up extra early to cook for the kids, went back into her room until she was sure it was time for him to get ready for work, and then she would go out to get the kids ready for school, pack their lunch and sometimes take them to school. She knew that once the kids were around, it would be easy to avoid him, because he couldn't do anything in their presence, and for those times she had to be with him when they were there, it was always super awkward. Making sure to avoid his eyes wasn't as easy as she thought it would be, but she didn't care about that. Thankfully, it was always only for a few minutes before he went to work for breakfast, or at dinnertime. If he missed dinner by coming home late, she would have put the kids to sleep and retire to her room.This was the exact thing she was trying to run from when she left him that night in his o
Ruby threw her head back to down the alcohol, then she replaced the small cup on the tray of the waiter that just brought the drink to her, and she allowed it take over her body as she swayed from right to right, to feel the rhythm and take in every beat. She looked behind her to see Olivia at the bar of the club with Liam beside her and one of his friends beside him as well. She shook her head at them as they watched her, wondering why they were not trying to have fun themselves. Shrugging her shoulder, she continue to dance, raising her hands in the air as she moved. She was so engrossed in the dance she didn't realize that Olivia was watching her anymore, she was now talking to someone. It wasn't until she looked back to her so that she could signal to her to get her a new drink did she see that and who she was now talking to. In front of them, Cameron stood there, glancing from Olivia to her. She wondered how he got to be there and if his presence there had anything to do with
How many times would this happen before he got the gist, that she wanted nothing to do with him? Or maybe it was her that needed to get that. Anyway, she knew he hated that she was the one rejecting him, and the one that was also looking at him with passion in her eyes. What the hell did she want? She needed to figure that out too, but first, she needed to find a way to get him to leave her the hell alone. She knew quite well it wasn’t coincident that he was here. He still stood behind her and didn't say anything, but maybe he just couldn't. He was probably scared of opening his mouth to say anything because that might make thing even worse than it already was. He allowed his hands to drop by his sides and stepped back, shaking his head. "Is this really want you want?” he asked. "You want me to leave you alone and leave? You don't want us to talk about it and then it gets awkward?” He grabbed her again, probably to try again, but she wrenched her arm away from him. No way! He did
That was all? She cared about him, which meant that there were no emotions there.That better be a joke, because even what she said and what she was doing to him doesn't align. If she cared about him at all, then why was she kissing him back every time, only to leave him high and dry and push him away? Why was she into him one minute and then do not care anymore in the next, abandoning him right before he could figure out what was happening?Probably, it was because she was drunk, and that was why she said what she did because no one should ever treat people they care about this way. Knowing that might be the reason didn't stop him from asking. "If you cared about me so much, why did you keep trying with my emotions and running away from me?”She opened her mouth to say something, but he raised his index finger up to stop her. "And don't you dare say it's about Summer and Spring. Don't you dare bring them into this, Ruby. I'm their father and you can not honestly think that you car
“So you see I'm not doing this because I don't freaking desperately want you, too. I do, but we just can't do this.” Ruby said, and Cameron looked at her. He thought about what she said, and then he smiled. "So you desperately want me as much as I want you?” he asked. Ruby frowned her face and turned the corner of her mouth down in a scowl. "Oh, really. How nice of you!” she said, shaking her head. "So, in everything I just said, that's the one thing you chose to hear?” she asked, pushing up her brows in a question. He shook his head, the corner of his mouth turning up in a smile. "No, Ruby. That's not the only thing I heard but I'm refusing to acknowledge those because all I can hear from them are excuses.” He said. “What? How are they just excuses?” she asked. He lifted his shoulder in a shrug, and then he said. "Well, you deciding that my kind of man won't want your kind of woman is really an excuse because I don't understand what you mean by that. What kind of man am I, and w
They left the alley and went home after Cameron called Olivia to let her know Ruby was with him. They got home earlier than normal because of the absence of traffic. It was very late and half of the town was already indoor. He parked his car in front of the house, not able to go to the garage because his body was on fire. He had been tempted to park his car in the middle of a dark lonely street and have her just there, but he had managed to get them home. His body was In anticipation of the things that he would do with her tonight, and as he turned the key in the ignition, he remove the seat belt and got out of the car.He walked around it to get her out as well. "You looked fucking amazing with the moonlight against your skin.” He said. "Thank you, Cameron.” She thanked him, feeling he was hotter right now, than he was before, seeming sexier than she had always noticed him to be. Outside, he was as cool as ice, a calm entity, but he was a mess inside, and he was hot and bothered
They stood that way for what seemed like a long time, starting a one another, and then as if they couldn't take the tension between them anymore after getting their shirts off, they ran into each other’s arms. Ruby couldn't be too sure who it was that moved first, but now, they were in each other's arms. She kissed him, wrapping her arms around him and standing on tiptoe. Behind her, she felt him unhook her bra, and she sighed into his mouth. She melted against him as her body decomposed into a big pool of jelly. This was an overpowering emotion, and she could feel it through her body, even at the center of her core. She felt wet heat gush from inside her to dampen her panties when his hand removed her bra completely and he touched the sides of her breasts. He cupped her ass as his hands went back down to them and he pulled her closer to the temptation of grinding herself against his thick and long length. He groaned into her mouth, and at the same time, he slipped his tongue betwe
“Cameron, please. I really need you inside me,” she said, not even realizing she was begging, her small manicured nails digging into his back. Cameron smiled at the urgency in her voice. He definitely didn't mean to keep her waiting, but he wanted her as ready as she could be so that this would be as painless as ever. “I'm so sorry, baby. You are just so gorgeous, and I can't get my fill of your breasts. I love them. I could play with them for a very long time.” He said as he kissed her breasts again, then he released them reluctantly to trace a path down her stomach, putting out his tongue to taste the salty skin that was there. He hung back at her belly button and slipped his tongue inside there as well, which caused her to jerk up in surprise. His hand went down and he touched her against her panties. Ruby made a yelping sound of pleasure and frustration as he ripped her panties apart. He had no time and patience to start getting them off her body slowly. If it was her favorite
Closing the door behind her, she turned to see something on her bed and she stopped in her stride, squinting her eyes to determine what it could be. She had left nothing at all on her bed when she left it this morning, so it could only be from one person, and that was Cameron. This must be what he meant when he said something about the gift he was preparing. With a small smile on her face, she walked to the bed to take a closer look at whatever it was. She definitely knew that she was going to have to thank him when he got back from work. This was really nice, she thought even though she hadn't seen it yet. The package was wrapped in a gift box with a ribbon tied in a bow at the top. Slowly, she sat down beside it and opened it, unwrapping the wrapper after getting rid of the bow. This was making her feel like she was a little girl on a Christmas morning, unwrapping a gift she had been expecting from her father. She finally got the wrapper off the box and with a sigh, she opened t
When Davey came into the kitchen, he took Summer out and back to her room by picking her up and Ruby turned towards Cameron. He had gone upstairs after she was done with breakfast to have his bath. He said he had a meeting at the office to attend to. He still hadn't wished her a happy birthday, but she guessed he must have forgotten about it because she had only mentioned it once. She would be sure to remind him after this one, so he doesn't forget anymore that easily. She definitely still stood by her word on not caring about that because she was grateful that she could spend it around people she loved and that loved her, and that was enough. At this point, all she wanted to do was have fun with the kids, call Olivia, and then make great food for lunch and dinner, even if it meant that she would stress herself out to achieve that. Cameron was wearing a dark sunglasses that hid his beautiful eyes from her but the rest of him looked as gorgeous. The dark brown suit hugged hid body p
Summer picked up the book she left in the living room and she walked back to the kitchen to sit with Spring, as Ruby made lunch. She would be going out soon because it was her birthday tomorrow, and she was planning to get some things to prepare for it. “Stop pulling that, Spring. Leave your sister alone.” She said when she saw Spring pulling at Summer’s book. He loved to pick on her sometimes like that, but she was always there to stop him. Spring laughed. "I was just messing with her, but she's a crybaby.” He said as Summer’s eyes started to water with tears. Ruby smiled and shook her head, then she begged Summer and told her not to cry. It was all she could do not to send them both out of the kitchen. They were really distracting her, and she needed to get the lunch done on time if she wanted to get going soon. “I’ll tell Daddy once he's back.” Summer said. Spring raised his shoulder in a single shrug as if he didn’t care who she told. The boy was growing so fast every day th
Olivia grabbed her purse from the kitchen counter, and then her keys from the small table in the living room, ready to head out for a shift at the hospital. She had rejected Liam’s offer to come to pick her up on his way to work as well. Although, she was a bit tired and sleepy, but she had to drive to the hospital because she would be going to the police station to meet Ruby. They had submitted the evidence to the police and Roy had been taken in for questioning.It was another sweltering day and her thick scrubs are not taking the high temperatures into concern at all, making her wish she could stay inside with the air conditioner at full blast. But seeing as she couldn't do that, she started to go out of the apartment, and got to the front door, opening it to step outside.She had barely made it out her front door and she was already feeling the heat welcoming her. Thankfully, her car had an air conditioner, but the only disadvantage was that she couldn't turn it on for long. She
Cameron reached out his hands to grab her before she meet the floor, and then he bent from his waist to grab her behind her knees. Grabbing her, he hoisted her up and into his arms. “Just don't struggle if you don't want your towel to fall off. Or you could, because I'll get to see you like I've been wanting since like forever.” He said, and Ruby stopped squirming in his arms immediately, settling. He walked to the bed and sat down, settling her against his lap, and holding her there, with her butt firmly against his crotch. He groaned at when she squirmed against him, and then she stopped. Ruby realized he was semi hard against her, and she wondered how that was what was in his mind when he had only come in to talk. But then again, he was a man with blood running through his vein, so she understood he would be aroused by being this close to him. She was, after all, aroused too, as she felt her nipples tighten into hard little rocks, and the junction of her thigh tightened in pain.
She waited there, waiting for Davey to come to get the door as she pressed the doorbell, but when the door ripped open, it was someone unexpected that opened it. Cameron!But, it wasn't entirely strange that he was the one that answered the door, after all, it was his house. She started up at him for a long moment, actually, she wasn't sure how long she had stood there staring at him, but when he cleared his throat, she snapped herself out of the daze she had been in. The truth was not that she didn’t know what to say as she watched him, but the fact that she realized at that moment how much she had missed him and how much she had wanted to see him. She had not even realized it sooner until that moment. His beauty, just as he looked on at her, his elegance, as he stood there, his stance, and the way the light behind him in the hallway, made him look even better than he was. Not that he wasn't handsome or anything though. There was something about seeing a man one was in love with
“Dad, ask your wife why she did all that. Please do, because I'm on a very thin line with withholding my anger here.” Cameron said as he looked from his mother to his father. He was really angry. He had waited until Gomez gave him all the proofs to take to her before coming over to confront her. Although he hadn't done anything wrong, he had to shoulder the responsibility for what her actions had caused, and the hate directed towards him by Ruby, a woman he was madly in love with. "What are you doing here, Cam?” Sarah asked behind him. They had talked about this, and she had begged him not to cause a scene, but he just couldn't. It wasn't something he could do. "You should go home and leave Mom. You look really exhausted." She said, observing him.Cameron wanted to roll his eyes because he knew she was only saying that to make him leave and stop yelling at their mother like that. Well, he didn't mean to be disrespectful, but he just couldn't stay quiet any longer. “Stay out of this,
When the phone rang, Ruby was sitting in the living room back at home with Olivia sitting on the couch in front of her. She was telling her about how many times Cameron had called her just to speak with her. She picked up her phone and frowned down at it, not sure she wanted to pick up a call from a strange number. For all she knew, it could be Cameron, but then again, this wasn't his number. She would have recognized it if it was, as she had it memorized. Besides, she knew he wouldn't call her again after he had done it several times but she hadn't picked it up. “Who’s that?” Olivia asked and Ruby lifted her shoulder in a shrug. “I don't know who it is.” She said. She wasn't a psychic so she couldn't possibly know who was calling her. Olivia was convinced it might be Cameron though, because of the look in her eyes. She was even more angry than she was, on her behalf, she would say every time they talked about it. “Then you won't if you don't pick it up. You can drop your phone a
It's been a solid hour since Cameron sat outside the hospital in the garden with his hand in his pocket and a lot going through his head. He had left the room and come out here when Ruby told him to leave because she didn't want to see him yet, whatever that meant. She was probably blaming him, but that was fine. He was blaming himself as well. It didn't help matters that his family was here; his mother and father, Davey must have called them. He said there in silence, when though his phone buzzed in his pocket for a while now. Someone had been calling him about fifteen minutes after he came out but he had refused to get his phone out of his pocket or pick it up. It was of no use right now, not when the woman he was madly in love with was in this state, and not when she had walked him out.Soon, he heard the rustling of a person’s footsteps behind him, but this was a public place, so it could be anyone, but when the person stopped at his back, he knew they were there for him. “Cam
