Cameron's POV.
My eyes didn't leave her, I was waiting for her to say something but not a word is coming out, I was about pulling her hands when Cathy's voice came up.
Come on, we can talk about that during lunch, let's go..
Actually I have to meet up with someone I’ll pass… she said, her face is one that is 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 to the direction of a girl, she had show 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 really 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 against Newton's team and we finally won the goal, I don't know the reason I was so determine to win him, for some unknown reason, I hated him
The students watching started murmuring and clapping
He's so handsome
Senior Cameron, we love you!!!
Date me please!!
I will kissed you, for free with nothing attached.
Newton glared at me angrily and threw the ball away, I chuckled
Seriously? Are you really going to turn this place upside down just because you lost the game, you are childish. I said
You are the childish one, dickhead.
I rushed toward him but Sutton and Alex, held me and pushed Newton from me.
Stop acting like a loser and get off. Ray pushed his chest
Hey, aren't you in my team? Newton frowned
Just because we are teammates doesn't mean I will choose you over my friend dude, so back off" Ray snapped at him
You shouldn't take side with this bitter idiot, you are just sad because your best friend is now my girlfriend.
What did you just say?
You heard me right? I didn't know what came over me, I pushed him, he punch me first, I had to punch him too and that was the fucking scene Padgett saw, I found her running to him instead of me.
Are you alright? She touched him, everyone was surprised, I look at her scornful.
Senior Cameron, are you okay?" The junior students there asked
I'm fine" I muttered and pull Padgett hand. Are you for real? Did you...
Let me be, why did you punched him? I look at her, I can't believe what is going on, I pushed my way from the crowd leaving her behind, my friends go after me, I hit the wall behind, as I make my way out of the basketball court
What thou fuck is wrong with her? I am her friend, why should she be thinking of someone else instead of me and that idiot, I really don't know what he is feeding her with? I said
Can you stop, it's only right for her to mixed up with people and she is definitely going to have a boyfriend someday and come to think of it, Newton is hot although he is an asshole. I look at Ray.
I never did stop her from having someone but what I will not take is she dating that imbecile that called himself whatever...
I don't see anything wrong there, she...
Alex, you should stop right now, you don't want to get me mad at you. I was really mad, I could sense they notice it, so they just stop talking, I grab the water and poured it over my hair then shakes it off my hair and the murmurs started again
How can he be so perfect?
I wish I'm his best friend, I get to see him every time
His eyes, are so flawless
His lips are nice, I wish he could stop being a playboy and focus on me. I groaned at their words.
Can they keep quiet at least?" I scoffed
Sutton chuckled and threw his arm around my neck as we walked towards the auditorium.
They are kids, don't mind them. He said
They should focus on their studies first, I wouldn't want people to start saying I go after everything on skirt. I said in frustration, Ray and Alex groaned
Why do I feel you are getting irritated because your best friend might be interested in Newton? I gave Ray a deadly look
You shouldn't joke around with me when it comes to Padgett. I dragged my bag, leaving Alex and Ray, who are now distracted with stupid girls while Sutton walked beside me.
Whoa! Did you watch the girls in the dancing club?
Of cause, they are so fucking hot"
You should have seen their dance, so sexy?
And that new student, what is her name again?
Padgett!
Yes, she is fucking hot, I love her. I listened as some group of boys talk about Padgett, my anger increase and right now, I really hate it when she do things without consulting me.
Are you alright? Sutton asked me, just as I was about to nodded, Cathy hurry to me and then back hugged me.
Baby! Sorry, I was abit busy trying to fixed all my classes, so I couldn't come to watch, don't worry, I will come watch the next time, am I forgiven? I nodded.
Hi beautiful! Sutton said to her.
Hi Sutton! Can I borrow your friend? Sutton nodded then leave the both of us.
Padgett's POV
Lunch break wasn't really that boring since I spent it with Emerald and some other girl that emerald had made friends with, among the two of us, emerald is the one that easily make friends, we ended up with the dancing club, I almost forget about my fight with Cameron
Then I remembered that Newton, asked me to come watch the basketball game, I was excited to go watch because I know Cameron love to play basketball but it's too late, the game was already over when I got there and to crown it all, I saw Cameron punching Newton, I have no idea what happened earlier or who started it but the truth is, I was too judgemental, Emerald look at me, cause right now, I hate myself for what I did.
Can you stop sulking already? I am sure now that we’re alone and you taking side with Newton, will really hurt Cameron feelings. Do you think Cameron was jealous? Emerald asked me.
Of cause not, he must probably be just angry that I avoided him and I took side with Newton, I really don't know what's up with those two and what possess me to care more about Newton than Cam
You said he clearly ask if you were going on a date with Newton and he is not happy that you take side with Newton?
Yeah but Cameron love Cathy, so why would he be jealous?
Do you really think that he likes this Cathy of a girl?
Ugh! there is something different about him, I just knew it, never had he offered to take a girl to school before but now he’s gonna be taking her everyday to school, he never approach a girl before but Cathy, he did want to woo her. Emerald I really don’t know how I would possibly cope with that… I said placing my head on the table
It’s okay baby girl, it will all be fine. I could asked my driver to pick you and drop you after school everyday.
No, that will only make him more suspicious. You know, the most annoying part of it all, Cathy seems like such a nice person; she’s beautiful; caring and even well mannered. I mean why wouldn't he like her? I really have to go out with Newton, for now, It might seem I am using him but at least I just have to try who knows maybe I’ll fall in love with him too right?
Maybe baby girl, just maybe…. She said placing her hands on mine as the bell was rung
When school hours comes to an end, just like every other day, everyone would be slamming their lockers and friends would walk out heading home but this time I really don't know if I should wait up for Cameron or simply walk home since I have told him that I have someone else to take me.
I intentionally stay behind for time to passed after Emerald left but when I couldn't waste any more time I had to head to the parking spot, I could explain that Cameron was busy in the morning, that is the reason, he did not take me to school this morning but explaining why I had to walk home would be very difficult to everyone nosing about my life
I headed to the parking garage and Cameron's car was in sight but there was something else there.
