CAM WAS A BRAT.

It was obvious now why Cam had loved her father so much. He had given her whatever she wanted.

"I am going to sit with Liz mommy not you" Cam said. They were in The Grand hall about to have lunch. Abby and Macy had a field day dressing Cam her in a striped black and white dress a cream over coat, white flats and doing her hair up in a messy braid. (Outfit on profile)

"Ok Cam but be good" H.M said.

"Come on best friend" Cam squealed excitedly. She pulled on the girls arm heavily. Leading them toward the buffet table. Cam had earlier decided that Liz was her best friend by default when: Bex was not interested in playing Barbie's, Zach was a boy and therefore had cooties, and Macy refused to let her brush her hair.

When they were all seated Cam was sitting in front of Zach, Liz was beside Cam and Bex was in front of her Macy was on Cams other side. Tina was on Zach's right.

"So Cam" – Tina started was interrupted by Bex saying "Tina don't you even start"

Cam stared at them for a moment and then turned to Liz and said "big kids are wired"

"I want to go to the park" Cam said from Liz's lap. They were in her mother's office again no one really knew what to do with Cam at the moment they were watching Cam play with her Barbie's.

"Wow" Bex said.

"I know" Rachel said.

Zach grunted in acknowledgement. He didn't feel like talking. He was feeling rather down missing Cam-17 year old Cam so much it kind of hurt. He wondered what year she was in right now if she was ok were she was sleeping had someone had treated her head if-

"Zach" Bex said. "Cams going to be ok"

"I'm fine" Cam said. "But I want to go to the park Daddy said he would take me later".

Her pupils dilated fully

There was silence.

"Well" Cam wined "Can we go"

Rachel recovering from the mention of her deceits husband responds with a confident "Are you sure that's what he said"

"Higher" Cam squealed.

Zach pushed higher Cam on the swings both of them grinning like idiots Cam giggled as her swing sailed higher and higher.

"Hey solo watch me" Cam cried having decided that Mr. Solomon was too much to say. Then when and the bar Cams swing reached its highest point and Cam let go letting and swinging her legs over her head and the swings bar into the air-(she basically jumped out if her swing only backward with a flip.

"NO" Zach cried. But Cam was already over the bar and coming down fast Zach reached up and grabbed her before she could hit the ground

The (though in Cams opinion she was just about an expert on that move and had really neaded no assistance)

Zach set Cam on the ground. Rachel kneaded and looked her straight in the eye "Cam don't do anything like that again do you hear me!" she said gripping her shoulders tightly "I thought you were guna-"

She stopped.

Cams chin was trembling and her eyes were watering as she said Im sorry mommy I thought I could"

Rachel sighed.

It was a love hate relationship.

And people asked why she never had anymore kids.
