chapter 5: That morning visit

Padgett POV

Cassie! Rhonda! Cathy! I couldn't get those names out of my head throughout the whole driver, I could see that Cameron, was trying his very best to make small talk with me, he kept asking me how I felt about Sutton but I was more worried that he was so smitten by a girl he met a few hours ago and that girl is no other person than Cathy. Maybe he is just excited I mean Cameron Is a player there is no way he is going to stick with her for more than two weeks, all playboys are always excited when they first meet a new girl, and besides he has Cathy as his newest girlfriend which means Rhonda, is way out of the picture and if Cassie is Rhonda friend, she has no chance whatsoever with him

"What do you think about Sutton?" He asked as the car came to a halt at his house, I looked at him, I don't like Sutton more than just a friend, he is a nice person but the truth is, if I wasn't in love with Cameron, I would had prefer Alex, just maybe, because of those stupid love story I have read about, those bad boy and how they fall in love, it's getting into my head. 

"Come on Cam, What do you think about Newton? The boy..."

"Gosh! That disgusting fellow, you shouldn't go near him, he is irritating." 

'Fine!'

"Good girl." I look at the mansion, it's more beautiful than before, so many renovations must have taken place causing it to look super magnificent, back then we would watch a movie till we fell asleep then the next morning I would head home but I was in no mood to watch a movie or spend the night close to him because I was afraid I would burst up in front of him I’ve gotten used to keeping my emotions in check but sometimes I just want to let it all out and cry when there is no one around. 

Part of the reason, I left and agreed for my mommy to take that job that let us leave the mansion, was the day, I heard Cameron, talking on the phone and he blurted out, that he was in love, I couldn't bring myself to ask him, who, I know he is hot back then, I know we are world apart, my mom was only a caregiver to his grandmother, who passed away a month back, after years of bedridden. The Adrians didn't want us to leave because we were like family, even though Grandma Adrian wasn't alive anymore, they still wanted us to stay but being heartbroken, I persuaded Mother to take the new job in country D, causing us to move from country A and here we are, back to the one thing, I hate to see, the man, I love in someone else's hand. 

Um! Cam, you should turn around and drop me off at my house.”

"But we’re supposed to watch a movie you know just like we do every Friday night back then. Don't you remember?'

"Of course, I do but..."

"I told you, I would fix the assignment for you.' 

"Not that, I just don’t feel so well I’m sorry I’ll see you tomorrow please I just want to get some rest that’s all."

"What is wrong did someone try anything at the party I swear I’ll…"

“No no no Cam! It’s fine I’m just tired that’s all, you know, I haven't done this for a long time."

"Are You sure?" He said staring intently

“Yes, cam! I’m sure I just wanna go home." I said tiredly resting my head as the car moved towards my house, direction, he was all moody, and I knew he was hurting. I too missed those times, we spent together, I just have to keep my distance, it's just a day but it's like forever. He dropped me off at my house, and he drove off, without saying a word to me while I walked in like a zombie, I went straight to my room, and since Mother wasn't around, I was practically the only one home. I texted my mommy, to tell her I was home. The ringing of my phone, could tell, that she was scared and shocked because she was used to me always comfortable with him. 

"Hey, sweetheart! Didn't you two make up? Is Cameron mad at you for not informing him? I was thinking that you will make up, like good old days." Her questions kept coming in rows, I let out a big gasp. 

"Come on Mommy, We are cool, I just want to be home and I need to fix my assignment.' 

"Oh that's true, you should be careful and please don't leave his sight, I heard that school is for the billionaires, so you should avoid trouble and those bullies." 

"I know.' 

"Good night! Love you."

"Love you too." I fall on my bed. Exhausting, sadly once again it was morning, I wished it was a weekend, I hadn't even fixed my assignment, I looked at my alarm, which that just woke me. 

"You are my worst nightmare," I said as I looked at it, as if, that wasn't enough, another annoying alarm was jingling and that was the sound of the doorbell. 

"Oh shit! Mommy, don't you have your keys?" I yawn. With a tight face thinking it was my mommy, I was practically on my transparent nightwear with Just my undies. 

Immediately, I pulled the door, it's Cameron! 

"You!" I screamed then ran back into the home, it's just a small apartment with all the necessary things to make us comfortable. 

Cameron POV. 

My eyes didn't leave her legs, they were stuck on her nice legs, watching her with just undies was kind of sweet, it was just like when she was in third grade. 

"You shouldn't hide them, you look sexy on just your undies." I could hear her whine, hearing my compliment, I just fell to the couch

"Silly!" I kind of enjoyed it when she was not comfortable especially when I saw her underpants, the facial expressions she made gave me some untold joy, I sat patiently waiting for her to get out of her room when she was not forthcoming, I called out to her. 

"Creamy! What are you doing?" 

"I want to have my bath." 

"Okay, where did you drop your bag, let me help you fix your assignment..."

"Holy shit! I forgot." She rushed out with the book and towel on her chest, exposing her sweet fresh shoulder, her skin was like a mirror, I smiled brightly at her, with those blue eyes of hers, I wonder if boys get a chance to see those eyes without the speck, will they go crazy. "Here, I will just fit my wears and get us what to eat." 

"Never mind, I have eaten, you just bathe and fix your food." She nodded and then made her way back into her room, I smiled as I watched her go through the door, my eyes were fixed back on her assignments. I was almost done, when I saw her moving towards the kitchen, I just felt she was going to take something, and then I realized that she was way too short to get the milk from the counter. I dropped the book and moved to her, cause I could see her from the living room. 

"Do you need help?' I asked she gave me a nod, pointing to the stuff, instead of getting it for her, I pulled her by the waist, I could hear a light gasp coming from her, I could feel she was not comfortable with me around, but I just felt that, it's because we have been apart for three long years, anyways, now she is here, I am going to do all the stuff we used to do before and I am sure, soon, everything will go back to normal. I place her on the counter, she gets the stuff then takes her down, I watch her move to the fridge and bring out a chocolate cake. She dropped it

"Thank you" She smiled and took a bite from the cake, accompanied with the milk, she got from the counter. The cream stained her bottom lip

"You see what I meant when I said you're a kid." I teased her. She chuckled and tried wiping it off, but I was faster. I wiped the cream off her lip with my thumb and licked my thumb, her eyes widen

"Are you sure, you are not hungry?" She asked then laughed as I frowned at her. "Stop talking nonsense, you should be fast, so we could leave." I gave her a slight knock

"Ouch!" She screamed

"That could put some senses in that head of yours." I scoffed and moved away from her, I started going out of the kitchen

"Ouch!" I heard her scream, making me run back to hold her, she was about to climb the stool but she ended up falling. 

"Why are you so clumsy? You should be careful, you don't want us to go late." 

"If you weren't leaving me, I wouldn't have fallen." She pouted, and then that creepy smile formed at the side of my lips. "So promise me, you will never leave?" 

"Silly, I am not leaving you, even if you decide to run away by blackmailing your mom to leave, I will follow." She looks at me, 

"Why do you think I was..."

"I know, so don't try to defend yourself." She laughed. "You're stuck with me baby doll.  Aren't you going to carry me to the dining, be a good boy, and finish what you started" She said, for some seconds, I stared at her with my eyes locked on her eyes and then her lips, before looking away and biting my lips. I pulled her on my strong arm but tried avoiding eye contact with her. 

"Hurry up, I'm leaving" I muttered as I placed her on the chair.

"Are you sure, you are not going to eat something?" She asked

'Watching you eat, is enough for me."

"Wow, why does that sound romantic? Is that what you use for those numerous girlfriends of yours?" Padgett teased

"You should stop talking nonsense if you don't want to get abandoned." 

"Can you abandon me?" She pout, 

"Do I want to be on a death roll?" 

Our ride to school was quiet, she didn't want to talk to me, I turned to her as I stopped the car

"You were quiet throughout the ride, are you okay?" I asked 

"I'm fine, see you later" She smiled and grabbed her bag before going out of the car. My eyes followed her as she walked away, she would have stayed beside me after all, we were going to the same class. I also came out of the car. 

Immediately, Newton showed up in front of me. "Look who we have here?" His tone was that of mockery, I rolled my eyes at him and made my way to pass another side but he blocked me again

"What do you want?" 

"I heard that girl is your best friend more like a sister, I am having her." 

"You don't want me to kill you with my hands, get your eyes off her," I said, pushing him off my way, I could hear his loud grin behind me, I knew I would have to protect her more, I know Newton hates me, he used to be Mr popular before I arrived the school when I got transferred to this school, I became Mr popular, so he hated me and I too hated him, we are in what we called cold war.
