CHAPTER 4
I opened my eyes and the sunlight coming through the window blind me. I rise my hand and put it protectively in front of my eyes and blinked trying to get used to the sunlight.
-And she's awake. A voice said. I instantly sat up and looked around. That was my room. I was in my room and Arianne was smiling to me.
-How…who..what happened? I breathed and run a hand through my tangled hair confused. Last thing I remember was Cam with that blonde girl and-
-You faint on me girly. A familiar voice said, Cam's voice. He was leaning on the wall and was smiling to me. I blinked even more confused than I was a second ago. Wait…What the heck was Cam doing in my house? In my own bedroom? And then I realized what he had said.
-You two brought me here? Thank God my parents were at work.
-Yeah. I'm gonna get you something to eat okay? And before i could protest Arianne was out of the room living me alone with Cam. Great. He came and sat on my bed and instantly i backed off. Of course I wasn't scared of him I was just….protecting myself? He laughed shortly.
-I did just saved your life girly and you re afraid of me? He mused with a smirk
-I'm not…And what do you mean? Anger rushed through me. He is a jerk.
-I catch you. If I haven't do that you'll probably would have a serious head injure or something.
-You…catch me? I repeated softly this time
-You're welcome pancake.
-I didn't said thank you and I wont. I snapped with bitterness
-I wasn't expecting you too. He smiled again. Why he was always smiling like that? Without realizing it I shivered yet the room wasn't cold. Oh gosh I must have fever. Cam's hand touch my forehead and I froze staring at him.
-Yep you have fever. He said confirming my previous thought. He took his hand and looked at me. He green eyes was like they were smiling temptingly.
-Your staring is creepy. I mean I know that I'm a hottie with mesmerizing eyes but it's creepy Lucy. He said and lifted his shoulders. I felt my cheeks running hot and I forced myself to look away form him to look anywhere but him. Where was Arianne? She knew I hated him and she had left me alone with him while there was a bed in the room. Gosh what I was thinking?
-You better lay down. We haven't hook up yet so I don't want anything happen to you before we do. He smirked again and I for once more felt my cheeks turning a bright red.
-We wont hook up either way you know. I said coldly.
-Are you sure of that? He came closer to me and put his hands on the left and on the right of me respectively and now we were face to face. So close that I could feel his hot breath on my face o close I could smell his cologne. He raised his hand and touched my chin forcing my to look him in the eyes. My heart was dancing in my chest and I ordered myself to relax. I hated the guy and he shouldn't have this affect on my but he did. He smiled again he eyes provoking me. And like a fool I couldn't look away for those gorgeous eyes. My breath came out faster than it should as he lean closer to me. I closed my eyes unable to move or think. His lips almost touched mine and-
-CAMERON BRIEL KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSLEF AND STAY AWAY FROM HER YOU JERK! A screaming Arianne interrupted us. No no she was interrupted us I think to myself. She was shaking some sense to me. Cam rose and looked at her.
-You're interrupting us Arianne. He said sounding annoyed and before Arianne could answer I did.
-No she's not. You brought me here and now you can go. So go. He glare at me.
-At your orders my Lady. He faked a bow with a half smile on his face.
-Make sure you'll dream about me. He said as he turned to leave. Frustration took the best of me ; how the heck he could just push my buttons so much?
-Go to hell. I muttered hoping he wouldn't hear but he did and turned to me again.
-Girly…you didn't knew? I've already been there. And with that last words he left.
-Are you okay? Arianne asked and I gave a little nod. I didn't want to talk about what had happened or almost happen. Why didn't I move? Why did I just stood there and do nothing? Why did I had let him think I liked him? Because as sure as Hell I dint like him but my stupid self gave in when he was about to kiss me. The worst part was that even now he'd gone I couldn't shake this feeling off. This sensation of his lips on mine…And that shouldn't happening.
-Are you okay? Arianne repeated and patted my arm making me focus to her again.
-Yeah i…I'm fine. I murmured. She smile on me with sympathy.
-You know…you should stay away from him Luce..He is not…He's not the good guy. I nodded saying nothing. Arianne had made crystal clear that she hated him but why was she acting so weird? And so protectively over me? I mean she knew me only a day and I liked her but… This whole scene was weird.
-Why did you faint Luce? She asked me with concern interrupting my thoughts. Flashes of Cam and that blonde girl kissing on the hallway came to my mind and I try to shove them away focusing on what Arianne had said.
-I…I was walking actually and then saw Cam with that girl and then he came to..talk to me and that the last thing I remember. I told her without feeling no proud for myself.
-What girl? Arianne asked me
-A blonde.
-You must mean Gabby. I gave her a confusing look.
-Is she his girlfriend? Arianne laughed softly
-Luce….Cam hasn't a girlfriend. He just loves to hook up with girls but a real relationship? No way. And that's why you need to stay away. Got that? I nodded. I wasn't even intending on doing the opposite. I was with Daniel after all and I hated Cam. Then what about before? Whispered a little voice inside my head. Nothing. That was nothing.
-You can leave if you want you know. And thanks by the way. I told her and she answered with a smile.
-Okay I'll leave but promise you'll get some rest will you? It was my turn to nodded.
-See you tomorrow. She told me as she stood up and get out of my room.
I lay back to my bed and pull my placket closer to my body. Soon I was relaxing with my eyelids closed and I didn't noticed when I fell asleep.
In my dream I was with Daniel in a valley full of flowers and I was relaxing in his arms. We were both sitting down and I had a flower on my hand ; a peony my favorite flower. It was white with its petals open and I smell it.
-It's wonderful flower isn't it? Daniel asked me. I turn to look into his eyes and he was smiling at me.
-Yeah. I love peonies you know. I told him and I run the petal's surface with my finger. Suddenly the weather change. Clouds were all over the sky now the sun long gone and it began to rain. I felt Daniel rose and I did the same.
-We better go pancake. I turned to him in surprise for the nickname and I found myself looking at Cam's emerald green eyes a grin on his face.
-What are you doing here? Where's Daniel? He smiled at me with a diabolic smile and catch me for the waist pulling me closer to him.
-Where's Daniel? I demanded again. He brushed my hair back back and his hand circle around my throat.
-Goodbye Luce. And he start struggling me.
 This time I woke up screaming and breathing hard. I felt dizzy from the dream. This was the second time I've dreamt about Cam killing me. It mustn't be a conscience. It started as the previous one. At first I was with Daniel and then somehow Cam was taking Daniel's place and he was killing me. You need to stay away from him a voice inside me warned me. I stood up and went to the kitchen ; I desperately needed some water.
The house was still empty. It was almost 2 o clock so my parents should be home any minute now. I opened the fridge and pure me some water. I heard the door open and close and my mom appeared to the kitchen. When she saw me relief crossed her face as she came to me and hugged me.
-Sweetheart are you okay? The principal called and told me you faint. She told me looking up at me.
-Mom relax I'm fine. I told her smiling
-Are you sure? You want me to cook something for you?
-No no I'm fine. I assured her.
-Okay. You can stay home tomorrow if you want to though. She said.
-Mom I'm fine. I told her again
-Okay. I'm gonna cook now okay? Your dad will be home soon. She said
-Okay I'll be in my room. I told her and headed upstairs.
As I opened the door I noticed my phone was ringing. I run over to my bed and took it to my hand pressing ANSWER. Of course it was Daniel.
-Hey. I said.
-Hey babe. How are you? He asked me. I didn't want him to worry so I decided no to mention the fact that I faint. Especially I dint want to mention that I faint in Cam's arms.
-Fine. You know school and stuff. I said trying to keep my voice as calm as I could
-Same here. It's all boring without you. That made me smile.
-Will you come today? I asked.
-I can't. Neither tomorrow. But Friday night I'll be there I promise. He said.
-Oh…Okay.
-I know Luce I know. I miss you too. He said softly.
-Food is ready! My mom yelled from downstairs.
-I miss you to. Got to go now.
-Okay. Guess we'll talk later. I love you. you know that aren't you?
-Of course. As I love you. Bye. I said and with that I closed the phone.
After I finished eating and also finished saying to both my parents that I was fine I returned to my room to study.
At evening I was still trying to finished Math but I decided that this wasn't going to happen any time soon so I stood up and headed to the bathroom to take a shower. I closed the door behind me and I stripped down. The water was hot and I welcomed it to my body relaxing. A good shower always helped me to clean my thoughts and relax and in that moment I wanted both.
As I finished I realized I had my clothes to my room. I groaned and wrapped myself with the towel. I opened the door and headed to my room. When I opened the door and stepped in I froze. A smiling Cam was sitting in my bed.
