Padgett's POV. "Will you take your call or are you just going to stare at it till it stops ringing?" I heard Cameron's voice, snapping me from my thoughts. "Mine...mine... it's...""Are you alright?" He touches my head to wipe the sweat-forming beads on my forehead. "I am fine, let's go, we are late already," I said dragging him out, not after pressing my tab to silence it. In no time, we are at school, I was glad we finally arrived, this stupid best friend of mine, keep talking about that stupid romantic nonsense, that he thought, he planned for Cathy, I really don't know what is wrong with him, and what thou fuck did he have with the letter C that he keeps having a thing with every girl that her name starts with the letter C. "I never knew that Cameron was your mom."When I finally could breathe, this demon was here. I said mentally, then turned my eyes to face him, I faked a smile. "Hi, handsome!" "Don't patronize me." His voice came up, I looked at him with an expressionless f
Padgett's POV. I headed upstairs to freshen up and probably change into something nice, it was not yet my curfew time and I knew Mom would not be coming, I thought of wearing one of those short gowns but then I realized that Newton, looked like those bad boys that could take advantage of a girl even though I was lovesick, I still have to be reasonable and protect myself. Finally, I settled on my blue jeans and white sweater, the weather was a bit cold because Its getting dark. After I had my hair blown dry, I looked at myself in the mirror. I realized I was so pale, so pale from crying too much over that naughty Cam, I decided to put on red lipstick, my mommy was the one that brought the lipstick but I never did apply it because drawing attention to myself is something I don't like I applied it then rubbed it off with a tissue paper to make it a bit mild. "Perfect!" I was waiting outside when he drove in. "Hey young lady, come over here." I gave him a small smile and then walked to
Padgett's POV. "Who are you talking about?" I asked trying to act like I didn't have an idea of what he was saying. "And how was your date?" "Stop trying to change the topic, who was that?" "A friend, you don't know him." "Him! Are you going out with a boy? You barely know anyone around, you shouldn't go out with strangers, I was here the whole time waiting for you, only for you to show up with a total stranger.'"He is not a stranger." "Then who is he?" Start talking."Come on Cam, you are not here to scold me or tell me what to do? I am not a baby, I could care for myself.""Really?" "Tell me, why are you here?" I asked to change the topic"Never mind!" He walked past me, and I gasped for air, as I made my way into our house, I knew he was mad but I didn't try to stop him, I needed the space, I needed to work on my projects; I don’t even want to think about him and to crown it all, I don't know what I wanted. Probably, all I want right now is to sleep, I just need a long nap, m
Padgett's POV.I decided to read it.[Hey Creamy, I am sorry I can’t pick you up for school today and I wasn't able to check on you last night, don’t get mad yet, I have a good reason for it you see Cathy's parents are out of town and so I just have to pick her up for school and I also drop her yesterday. Please I swear it’s only for today it won’t happen again. I’ll explain more in school and you should tell me, the reason for missing classes yesterday, I’m sorry, talk to you later... Cam]I read out loud with teary eyes just two days after they started dating he was already picking her over me tsk. He was right, she is different, I can't think of a day that will come, that he will pick a girl over me, but the day is here and Cathy hasn't even been with him for more than two days and he’s already had dinner with her; kissed her and now he’s taking her to school, I wonder what they did through yesterday that made him forget everything about me. I thought as little tears almost fell fro
Padgett's POV. That voice is no other person than that stupid bitter Cassie's voice, I know she is still mad at me but I don't see the reason she is mad because I am not Cameron's girlfriend. "Aren't you supposed to be in class or something?" I said as she gasped in shock surprised at my outburst, I know she wants to bully me but I am not giving her that satisfaction. I don’t blame her usually I would keep quiet and let her molest me and rain curses on me all because of Cameron, for just four days, I have had it up to my neck but not this time, they are not dating anymore, even if I pick a fight with her no one will ever say I did it because I am jealous"Wow you’ve grown balls I see, it's a good thing Cameron had learned the kind of person you are, no wonder he left you.'"That’s funny you know because if I remember clearly, he left you not quite long ago, he got tired of you pretty fast, I am surprised you can still show your face at school you know, after what happened this mornin
Cameron's POV. My eyes didn't leave her, I was waiting for her to say something but not a word was coming out, I was about to pull her hands when Cathy's voice came up.Come on, we can talk about that during lunch, let's go.."I have to meet up with someone I’ll pass," she said, her facial expressions were like that of one who was not sure, she wanted to sit at the same table with us for the next 20 minutes"Creamy! We’re not done with this conversation you know that.""I’m done Cameron," she said coldly before heading in the direction of a girl, she had shown me earlier on her phone as her friend, I am sure that should be Emerald, her supposed new best friend. Eating lunch alone with Cathy felt suffocating, I wasn't able to enjoy my meal, I really don't know the reason but I felt empty again, it's a good thing that the lunch ended fast and right now, I am in with my basketball team. I am right here at the basketball court"Go Cameron," My team screamed as I scored the first goal agai
Padgett's POV. I headed to the parking garage and Cameron's car was in sight but there was something else there, that singular act that always makes me ripped apart, that breaks my world apart, Cameron was hovering over Cathy and frankly, that wasn't even the worst part of it they were kissing right in front of my eyes in the parking spot near his car. She held onto him so tight as his hands caressed her waist while she placed her hands on each side of his shoulders as they kissed each other like their life depended on it. I promised myself I wasn't going to cry over him anymore so as much as this hurt, so badly; I was going to pick up my pieces and act like it didn't matterI walked passed them, and as I heard her moaning shamelessly to his kisses I wouldn't blame her I was sure he was a great kisser and thankfully they didn't even notice me. I guess they were too engrossed in exchanging saliva to notice the ugly ducklings walking passed them. When I got home Mommy hadn't arrived as
Padgett's POV. "Don't give me that look, you should listen to me because...""You are just looking out for me and I am your baby sister." I completed his words for him, those words are beginning to sound like a broken record for me."Creamy...""No Cameron, you’re sincerely going crazy I’m gonna date Newton I'm gonna go out with him tomorrow night and you won’t be able to do anything about it I hope you enjoy the rest of your day because I sure will. goodbye." I said running up to my room leaving him stunned in the living room. When I heard the door knob crack a few minutes after, I just thought is my mom, so I made my way out of my room thinking that Cameron is gone"Welcome Mrs Ryan." Cameron's voice came up“Oh, son! I have missed you." My mom tapped his back and pulled him into a hug."You didn't tell me, Cameron was coming over for dinner.""Maybe it's because he is not supposed to be here," I said through gritted teeth"Creamy, I just went away for some time but now, I’m back.

Padgett's POVNine months later, I am looking at myself in front of the mirror, my tummy is getting bigger with each day, and all my wears can't fit, I am getting frustrated fitting into everything, and none look good on me. "Mi Corazon!!!""Yes, creamy!!!" Cameron replied as soon as I called him with his eyes buried on his laptop, he is now the CEO of his father's company, Dad had resigned after the death of Mr. White and Berry was put behind bars and Cassie survived the gunshot, she is also in jail, it's a pity, just Cathy lost her life."Why do I look like a frog that swallows something really big, like an ape to be specific?" I watched as Cameron, stared at me, as his eyes moved from his laptop to my tummy down to my legs, I wasn't wearing anything, I was practically nude in front of him. We had our wedding, six months back with Julia and Ray was a double wedding, it was fun and I never thought that having two weddings in a day, would be mind-blowing, it was fun, and our wedding
Padgett's POV."Padgett!!! She is up!!!" "Thank goodness!!! She is up!!!"Those were the voices I was hearing, I opened my eyes slowly, and then stared at the walls, I couldn't see the faces of the people but I could only see the White Walls clearly and it showed one thing, I was at the hospital. "Where am I?" I asked with the faintest voice anyone could ever hear. "Creamy!!!" That is Cameron's voice, he is the first voice I could recollect, I open my eyes wide. "You are alive," I asked, and he smiled. "Yes creamy, we all are alive." He said then I jumped from the bed. "Sutton; Alex! Emerald; Julia; dad and mom...'"Oh! So I am the least person, you want to survive." I heard Mom's voice as they made their way into the ward, my face brightened, and I gasped, accompanied by a heaved sigh of relief, I have no idea how the two work together but yes, I did let out that sigh. "Yes, everyone is fine," Julia said. "I was scared, I saw the bomb explode, I saw the fire consume the mansio
Padgett's POVWhen my eyes opened, I was surprised to see myself in a dark room, the last thing I could remember was that I got a message from Cameron that I needed at the office, I hurried out from Emerald's house only to get double-crossed by a car that pulled me out, the rest was blank. "Who is there? Let me out." I yelled, I tried to scream but it kept echoing, I tried to move only for me to see Cathy lying lifeless beside me. "Ah!" I screamed as I jumped from her side. "Who is there?" "Are you scared?" My eyes bulge, seeing Berry point a gun at Cassie's neck and her hand ties behind her. "Berry, what are you doing?" I yelled as I tried to sit on the floor. "Do you want to kill her?" I asked"Stop it already, stop feeling sorry for this idiot, you should thank me for trying to help you catch your mom's culprit." "What do you mean?" I asked as I stared at them confused, Cassie's skin was covered with blood. "Go on and tell her, if you don't want me to blow off your head?" Berry
Cameron's POV. Not right now, not now, I don't want to see them, I had a lot on my head and now they are standing in front of me, looking at me with anger. "Please, I have had enough trouble for only today.' I said turning from them. "We are not here for trouble," Alex said, I looked at them. "Yes, Emerald said we should work together since we all have a common problem, so we should forget about our differences and sort this mess out, once and for all.""Oh! So we are...""We are not, we can not be friends, just for this," Sutton said, I rolled my eyes at him, at least, they were willing to help, we sat and started discussing the situation. "So you are saying that Berry is not pregnant?" Ray asked. "No, she is not, she had no idea, that her phone was a bug, so whatever she was discussing, I could hear it, I heard her conversation with her father but I thought it was a joke but I also heard her conversation with her family doctor that, he should tell me, that, she is two months pre
Cameron's POV"Are you satisfied now?" I asked her as she stopped hitting me, when the security guard tried to stop her, I asked them to let her be. "Never, I will never be satisfied till you stop existing." She said it hurt they were my friends, we were family but right now, they all hated me, all of them, what did they all think? Did they think I was enjoying this pain? "You will only get satisfied if I stop existing?" I asked then grabbed the security gun and gave it to her, she grabbed it from me. "Go on and pull the trigger," I yelled as she pointed the gun at me. "You can't?" Her tears fall, as she let go of the gun, and the security grabbed the gun. "Let's talk in my office," I said as I turned. "I don't want to share the same air with you." She said, I turned and looked at her, she was my only ticket, if she understood me, things would be much easier, Alex would shift ground and it was only Alex who could make all of them change their mind. "If you don't want to talk to me
Berry's POVMy eyes bulge out, I have no idea that he would say so, last night, we had a heated quarrel and now, he is asking me to get married to him."Are you serious cupcakes?" I asked as I grinned."Yes, Mom said, you told them, you are carrying my baby?" "You accept it," I asked, he walked towards me, then caressed my lips."We've been living together for years and I have been having intercourse with you or did you give your body to another...""Of course not, you should know you are the only man, I love you, and stop having bad thoughts about me, you should know that what I and Newton had was all a mistake, don't you trust me?" I fake a sad facade, trying to persuade him."I trust you." He said, although his attitude was a bit strange, it was not my business, at least I could get what I wanted and then carry out my plans, I couldn't wait to owe all this and probably kill my dad as well.Oops! Berry, you are been an asshole again. My inner self scolded me, my thoughts were dragge
Cameron's POVEvery one of them turned and looked in my direction, I froze in the spot, I really didn't mean for them to notice me, but I got carried away, I had no idea that she was with them all this while, rumor had it that, she disappeared and that her family had been searching for her. "What are you doing here? Are you stalking us?" Sutton's voice wasn't friendly, he pushed me and sent a punch across my face. "Get out." He said. "Why? Did you kidnap her?" I asked, Alex, grabbed my collar. "Don't you understand, the word gets out, let me explain...""AH! My head!!!" Rhonda screamed as she held her head. "Guys stop it, she is having an attack!!!" We heard Ray screaming and then rushing to Rhonda, he helped her onto the bed, and we three rushed to her as well, the doctor examined her and then gave her some drugs to calm her nerves. "What is wrong with her?" Sutton asked the doctor. "Oh! The thing is, is like, seeing all these three, trigger her memory, probably it was too much
