Don't Fear The Reaper
"Tyler, the lightning's not going to get you." Cameron sweatdropped, looking underneath her bed, and frowning. "Now please come out of there before I drag you out myself."
That resulted in him getting beamed with a sneaker in the face. Groaning, Cameron staggered backwards, tripping, and landing on his back with a loud THUD!
"No way am I leaving the safety of here, Cameron!"
Ever since the storm had begun two and a half hours ago, Tyler had been hiding in numerous places in her dorm. Cameron had snuck in to return her notebook and ended up being trapped there with her. And since he couldn't reach Ami or Alicia to ask them how to calm down Tyler...
He was stuck with a psychopath until the rain let up.
"Ty, come on. It's not like Joan Crawford's out there or anything." Cameron began, rubbing his sore nose, and seeing her icy amethyst eyes staring at him from the depths deep beneath her bed. They were eerie, almost like a cat's, and they glowed strangely. "Hey... that gives me an idea..."
Tyler watched as Cameron disappeared from her view. A clap of thunder caused her to squeak and shut her eyes tightly.
"Make it stop, make it stop, make it stop..." She whispered repeatedly.
Tyler hated thunder storms. She hated rain unless it was a light rain shower. Where she could dance and play happily. But when there was lightning and thunder...
She was under her bed, cowering like a 'fraidy cat.
"Ty, I got something for you." Cameron stuck his head underneath the bed, lying on top of it, and his messy hair brushed across the floor. Tyler sighed, forcing herself out from the safety of underneath her bed, and joined Cameron on the bed. "There. All safe now."
Tyler was enveloped in a protective hug. She was then dragged into Cameron's lap, him singing along with the CD that had suddenly started to play, and wrapping his arms around Tyler, rocking her gently.
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are
Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby I'm your man...
Tyler began to sing along, suddenly feeling safe, and her fear was replaced with warm and the confidence that Cameron would protect her from anything.
Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity...
Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday... Like Romeo and
Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday... Redefine
happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday... We can be like
they are
Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby I'm your man...
"Cam..." Tyler closed her eyes, leaning against him, and her heart started to pound. She loved being so close to Cameron. She just wanted to have him hold her like this forever. Her love for him made her go nearly insane.
And she loved it all the same.
Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear we couldn't go on
The door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew and then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared
Saying don't be afraid
Come on baby... And we had no fear
And we ran to him... Then we started to fly
We looked backward and said goodbye
We had become like they are
We had taken his hand
We had become like they are
Come on baby... don't fear the reaper...
Just as the song ended, the power went out, sending them both into eternal darkness. Tyler began to shake in fear, latching onto Cameron, and she whimpered. She hated complete darkness. It was one of her worst fears.
"Hush now, I gotcha, I gotcha, Tyler." He coaxed soothingly; he stroked her raven locks, refusing to let her go.
"C-Cameron, I'm scared!" Tyler's voice whispered. He felt her tightening her grip on him. "I don't wanna be in the dark!"
Cameron nuzzled his face into her soft locks. Inhaling her scent, he muttered reassurements under his breath. Tyler was so warm and she smelled like black cherries.
And it was taking all of his restraint not to go insane for her.
Cameron wanted nothing more than to take all of Tyler's fears away. Just like in the song. And just being there with Tyler made his heart try to escape his chest.
"I love you, Ceridwen."
Everything froze.
"What did you just call me, Adrian?"
"Adrian? I'm Cameron."
"And I'm Tyler."
Both blinked, "What's going on here?"
Cameron shrugged, "I just said it automatically..."
Tyler paused when she felt her shoulder blade start to tingle, "Cameron... you know that we're connected by our past lives, right?"
"Yeah..."
"Maybe those are the names of our ancestors...?"
"It seems possible..."
"Ceridwen... it's the name of the Celtic Goddess of Inspiration of Poetry."
"Adrian's Latin though. It means 'dark one'."
"Yes, but it is also Celtic. I looked it up."
"Oh."
Thunder rumbled.
Lightning flashed.
Rain pounded.
Tyler screamed.
Cameron jumped.
"Everything's alright, Tyler. I promise nothing bad will happen." Thinking quickly, Cameron then laid down, hugging Tyler close to himself, and they didn't move for what seemed like an eternity.
"Please don't leave me..." She whispered suddenly.
"I won't if you don't want me to." He whispered back, sitting up somewhat so he could stare into her eerie eyes. Cameron brushed some of her raven locks out of her face and smiled. "I love you too much, Ty."
Tyler smiled, "Cameron...?"
"Hmm?"
"Give me just one kiss..."
He blushed, and even in the darkness, Cameron knew Tyler could see it. Watching her, Cameron suddenly felt her fingertips brushing across his cheek. Very slowly, she leaned up, pressing her lips against his own.
Soon, they were kissing furiously, wrapping their arms around each other, and refusing to let go.
Cameron growled at the taste of her. He couldn't get enough of her and yet he knew he had to restrain himself. And Cameron wasn't gonna risk losing Tyler just because his hormones were out-of-whack everytime she was near.
They somehow ended up with Tyler pinned to her bed and Cameron's knee inbetween her legs. Both blushed before Cameron tried to scramble away from her, falling backwards off the bed, and landing on the floor with a moan of pain.
"Are you alright?!" Tyler whispered, peeking over the edge of the bed, and reaching her hand out blindly. She finally grasped Cameron's and pulled him back on the bed, them lying next to each other, and trying to get the awkward moment out of their minds.
"Yeah... I'm sorry, Ty. I didn't mean to-" He was silenced by a finger that belonged to said girl.
She smiled, "It's alright, Cam. You did nothing wrong." Stifling a yawn, Tyler snuggled up to Cameron, her head resting on his chest, and she could hear his heart beating quickly. "I love you, Cameron. So much..."
Cameron was suddenly very tired, "I love you too, Tyler... I always will..."
He then realized something.
Tyler's fears were gone now...
Now that she was with him and only him...
And with that happy thought in his mind, Cameron fell asleep with Tyler in his arms.
"... I'll never leave you, my love..." Tyler's voice suddenly whispered in his subconscious mind.
And she never would.
The End...
