I mumbled into the phone as Caira let out a amused hum on the other side."Oh wow, that man has some serious - very seriously strong will power. I admire him.""I am very frustrated because of him.""Come on, chill, Shay. There are plenty of other fishes in the sea - I bet we could even find some who a

I let out a short laugh,"Only a fool would not want to kiss you," I said, running a hand through his curls, my gaze fixed on him,"And I do not intend to be a fool.""And I intend to be a man who believes in miracles – in miracles like you."I was very well aware of our position, but did I care? No.For the first time in m

SHAYLA'S P.O.VMy OMG-I-KISSED-CAM fever was, like most of the things, popping up in my head, over & over again – due to my overthinking trait, which was very dominant, much to my dismay.Bryan & Caira had assured me that the kiss won't ruin things between us and that I had no need to freak out so much and think of commitment right away. But what they had failed to understand was that I was scared of the dangerous feelings that had unfurled in my ribcage a

THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VThere were plenty of ways to cure a hangover, and Bryan was familiar with a few of them -- thanks to his mad partying skills. However, none of them included an early morning wake up call.Someone was pounding on the door of his hotel room, and he certainly wasn't too pleased about it. With his bitch of a hangover, a body cracked in pain, a hundred creases on his designer shirt, and something sticky on his hair that made him let out a sigh of disgust -- he was in no mood to greet the blinding light of the day and whoever it was at the door. But when an arm settled on his torso and the fingers brushed against his -- all his sleepiness had disappeared faster than one could say shit.

CAMERON'S P.O.V The rain played an orchestra of beats against the cemented roads surrounding the mansion. Shayla had been right, the rain here wasn't sweet or melodic, instead it had been just the relentless and gut wrenching rhapsody I had wished to observe, sending chills down my spine. Bryan had told me that this rainfall was relatively better than that of the other days. I had smiled. The only thing that was so goddamn awful about this weather was the humidity. Literally every day was a very, surely bad hair day for me, leading me to tie up my curls (which were turning frizzy) into a man bun. Shayla had grinned, trailed a finger down my jaw, kissed me on the cheek, and whispered,

I asked her as I ran one hand through my curls, again.She gave me an incredulous stare as she looked up at me from the papers she was assessing,"You look like a malnourished whale.""Camille," Mom shook my head at my dear little sister,"Cut your brother some slack."M

CAMERON'S P.O.VThis was going to be a long, long night."I am absolutely exhausted," Shayla muttered and I didn't miss the brief side eye glance she threw my way,"Where can I crash, Easton?""Wait, this is a sleepover?" Bryan inquired,"But I didn't bring my comfort clothes and comfort blankets! I will have to go back to home, knowing that you all are enjoying this adult sleepover!""Don't worry," Shayla shrugged,"I brought yours.""Ugh, if only you hadn't brought his clothes," Mille wondered,"I would have been able t

One Year Later.SHAYLA'S P.O.V"What! I told you not to disturb me — I am workin—" But the words dried up at the tip of my tongue when I pulled open the door of my bedroom after incessant knocking from an annoying mood-breaker. Because oh bloody hell.I wasn't expecting to see Cameron.Cameron. My Cameron. Who was supposed to be in Los Angeles for some interview, was standing right in front of me, at the door of my bedroom. I blinked not once, but thrice to make sure that it was really Cameron. When he broke into a smile at my sight, I realized that he was not some caffeine-induced hallucination my brain was concocting. He was real, and most importantly, he was right here, with me."Oh my God," I exclaimed, my hands flying to my mouth as I gaped at him in disbelief. "You are here! But you said you couldn—""I missed you too much," He said, and then swooped in for a kiss, snaking his hands to my back and taking the opportunity to push me further against himself. I melted under his touc

SHAYLA'S P.O.VTonight looked genuinely promising. The restaurant we had gone to — Sapphire — looked absolutely spectacular, was a multicuisine fusion restaurant, and was modern to a T. With bright flashing lights, sleek finishes and a touch of futuristic design, the restaurant provided nothing but excellent ambience. And my company tonight was excellent as well — because Cameron looked downright ravishing in a matching blue blazer and trousers, and a black and white polka dot shirt. I was in a simple black dress with velvet appliqués by Oscar de la Renta. And honestly? We looked like one heck of a couple. When Cameron stepped forward and asked the receptionist to check our reservation. The maitre d' led us to our seats, and I sit opposite to Cameron, perusing the courses for the evening. In the end, we ended up ordering a bottle of authentic rice wine from Shaoxing — the restaurant's speciality beverage — along with an array of foods, including; pharoah quail with chives and black t

SHAYLA'S P.O.VThe next week, while I was sitting in my office, proof-reading the term sheet of the creditor meeting that was conducted earlier that day. I was hungry, tired and missing Cameron, and the purple half moons under my eyes which were a result of acute sleep deprivation wasn't a good look on me. That's exactly when someone knocked at the glass door of my office.I waved my hand without looking up. "Is it the files for the Wonderland deal? Keep them there, and then go. It's very late.""It is very late, indeed," A familiar voice mused and I instantly looked up to find Cameron standing there, covered in black from head to toe. A black t-shirt, black trousers, black cap and a black mask. So much for not being recognized on the street. But if he even breathed in my direction, I'd be able to pinpoint him."What are you doing here?" I exclaimed, glee and surprise seeping into my voice. "Oh no, were you waiting for me? You should have had dinner without me.""No, I brought food f
