Innocence: A Camaya Love Story
Chapter 1: I Believe In A Thing Called Love
Cam's POV: He couldn't take it anymore, he had had enough, he was done, he just wanted it to be all over with. He couldn't even bare to put up with his demons for Maya's sake, so he had texted her saying "Sorry. It's over". That was the last time he would ever talk to Maya, because he was going to do it, he was going to do the unthinkable, he was going to take his own life. Nobody would miss him, I mean Maya would have Zig, My parents would have eachother and my siblings to look after, My teammates don't even care about me, so what's stopping me, absolutely nothing. He made sure the Clarkson's were asleep before he left, to make his way to Degrassi, where he would do it in the greenhouse. When he got to the greenhouse, he looked around for something sharp, so he could end all this mess he had created. He found a pair of garden shears, he was about to do it, but then he had flashblacks of him and Maya the night before, when he stayed the night, she was laughing, whilst he was tickling her, and they were just so happy together, nothing to mess it up, Cam was crying profusely, what is he thinking?! Maya would be so upset if he did this, his inner conscience was screaming at him, It was Maya, "Don't do this Cam, Please, I love you more than anything. I can help you! Please, just don't do it. Think about your family, friends, me!" He decided he can't do this to Maya and his family. He's gonna get help. There's only one person that he can go to. Maya.
Maya's POV: I wonder where Cam is? I know I shouldn't be thinking about him, I mean he broke my heart through a text message. I can't help, but be worried, this isn't like him to do this. We had the perfect night together, he even said so! I'm so confused! Ughh! I'll never get to sleep, I mean it's already 1 in the morning! I have school tomorrow, might as well get up, because I'm definitely not gonna be able to sleep, with Cam on my mind. I make my way downstairs and decide to make me something to eat, I make sure to be very quiet to not wake up Katie. I make a sandwich, I'm about to go back upstairs, but I hear a noise outside my house. I stop and go and unlock my door and go outside. What I see astonishes me, Cam. What is he doing here? "Cam? What're you doing here?" "Hey, look just hear me out, ok? I'm sorry for that stupid text I sent you earlier, I don't wanna break up, I love you too much to do that, and I only did that because I wasn't thinking right". As he says this, I'm in shock. He LOVES ME, ME?! "Cam, I Love you too, it's ok, really". I run in his arms and kiss him with so much passion, to show him how much he means to me. We break apart. "I'm gonna need your help, Maya. I'm not in a good place, I do bad things to myself. I hurt myself to get out of hockey. I was gonna kill myself tonight, but you stopped me from doing it". "What?! Cam, what were you thinking?! Do you know how much I would miss you?! or your family?!" "I know". "We'll get through this together, I'm going to help you", no matter how hard it gets, I'll be there for you no matter what. I promise you. I love you, Cam, so much". "I love you too, Maya. No words can describe how much you mean to me". We kiss for what seems like forever. We decide to go inside, I tell him that he can stay with me tonight in my room. "What about Katie". "Who cares". " I don't really feel like getting castrated in the morning". I laugh. "you won't, I'll just explain in the morning, if that's ok with you?" "It's fine, as long as I don't get in trouble". They talk for a little while longer, until they drift off to sleep, even though they have to get up in about three hours.
