Cameron and Damian's performance of 'Baby It's Cold Outside' went better than expected. Most of the shots were one take wonders, everyone was completely blown away by their performance.
At the end of the song Damian had his hand underneath Cameron's chin, tilting the hipsters head to catch the doting look in his eyes.
"Guys I don't know what happened but it was electric" Zach remarked, deeply impressed by the comfortableness of the performance, both boys just looked so at ease singing a duet with each other.
Cameron smiled at Zach's use of the word electric. He recalled his and Damian's first kiss, awkward yet oh so electric. A chill ran through his body as he remembered the feel of Damian's lips on his.
Once both he and Damian were dismissed from the shooting they retreated back to the boys dorm to find Samuel sat on the couch, he appeared to be completely enthralled in a video game. Cameron took Damian's hand and led him to his bed so that they could sit down.
It was easy for the boys to act like a couple around Samuel as he was the only person who knew, they knew they could trust him though.
Cameron wrapped his arms around Damian and gently rocked him. He knew after filming scenes Damian always got so tired, as if all his energy just completely disappeared. Damian leaned further back into Cameron's arms and closed his eyes, his breathing becoming soft and even.
Cameron stared down at Damian's features, he looked peaceful and childlike. The blonde boys eyes traced every single feature on the Irish boys face as he watched him fall asleep at ease. His eyes softened, he was falling for Damian harder and harder each day. He pushed back a piece of hair which had fallen into the other boys eyes. He was in love.
"Is it getting serious?" Cameron looked up at the sound of Samuel's voice. Samuel had a smile planted on his lips, staring down at Damian then up to meet Cameron's eyes.
Cameron nodded and started to play with Damian's hair. "Yeah. It really is." He muttered, stroking Damian's hair fondly.
"Why can't you tell anyone other than me if it's this serious?" Samuel asked. Cameron felt uncomfortable; he shifted slightly but stopped as he felt Damian stir in his sleep.
"I—uh, I just don't think either of us are ready—you know? Coming out to people is a big deal" He stated, Samuel nodded seemingly agreeing with the blonde boy. He caught Cameron's gaze again.
"Just, we are your friends despite this being a competition. The other's will understand, even Lindsay" Samuel added, laughing at what Lindsay's expression would be if she were to find out about Damian and Cameron.
"I don't want all that drama though" Cameron said, rolling his eyes at the sound of Lindsay's name. Samuel shrugged.
"Whatever man" He turned towards the door and looked back at Cameron from over his shoulder "I'll leave you two alone" He remarked with a wink, Cameron flushed pink.
Samuel exited the room leaving Cameron alone with a sleeping Damian. Cameron pressed a light kiss against Damian's hair; he muttered affectionate words at the sleeping boy.
Damian shifted in his sleep, snuggling closer to Cameron and wrapping an arm around the boys waist, Cameron couldn't help but blush, if anyone were to walk in there was literally nothing he could do to explain how they got into this position.
Thankfully the only person who entered the room was Samuel, he had been fending off the other contenders for the day, making sure they didn't burst in and interrupt the sweet moment between Cameron and Damian.
"You should really wake him up" Samuel told Cameron, Samuel felt awkward as he looked at the new position both boys were in.
Cameron sighed and looked once more at Damian's peaceful expression; he gave Samuel a pleading look.
"Cam not the puppy dog face" Cameron changed his expression to a pout; Samuel threw his arms up in the air in defeat "Fine! 5 more minutes just make sure he's up, I can't keep people out of this room all day" He said as he stomped out of the room.
Cameron gently shook Damian, whispering his name over and over again till Damian opened his eyes wearily to reveal his shockingly light blue eyes. He yawned then smiled up at Cameron.
"How long was I asleep for?" He asked, Cameron shrugged.
"A couple of hours tops." Damian sat up sharply; he gave an alarmed look to the other boy.
"Nobody walked in did they?" He asked, anxiously. His shoulders fell in relief as Cameron shook his head.
"Sam kept them out, don't worry. But they'll get suspicious if you sleep for much longer" Cameron laughed; he patted Damian on the head and manoeuvred himself to stand up. He was stopped suddenly by Damian's hand grabbing his.
"Wait" Damian whispered, Cameron sat back down on the bed and turned to face Damian. Damian leaned forwards and captured Cameron's lips with his own. Cameron sighed happily into the kiss.
Damian pulled away and smiled "I felt like we hadn't done that in hours" he exclaimed. Cameron's heart soared and before he knew it he found himself tackling the Irish boy to the bed with one passionate kiss. Damian's arms automatically wrapped themselves round Cameron's waist and pulled the boy's body closer to his earning a satisfied growl from his blonde friend.
The kiss was a lustful battle of tongues and a frenzy of where to put their legs and arms. Both boys found themselves moaning from the intensity of the kiss and the position of their bodies pressed flush against each other, searing heat ran through both boys.
They heard a faint gasp behind them and sudden yell from Samuel.
"Lindsay, wait—don't!"
Damian leapt off Cameron in a rush, leaving the blonde boy completely flustered and dazed from the previous kiss. Damian caught Lindsay's stunned eye.
"What was that" Lindsay managed to spit out, her voice sounding completely baffled as to what she just witnessed.
Damian looked completely helpless; he didn't know what to say. What could he say? He was making out with Cameron for the fun of it? He just really wanted to tell people about him and Cameron, he wasn't ashamed. He could never be ashamed of Cameron. The look on Cameron's face said otherwise however.
"I made a bet" Samuel said suddenly, Lindsay narrowed her eyes and turned to him.
"What?" She asked.
"We were playing truth and dare earlier and I dared them to make out" He shrugged nonchalantly. Damian caught Cameron's eye and he could have sworn he saw disappointment in his expression.
"Sam, you expect me to believe that?" Lindsay said impatiently. "They were moaning, Samuel. Moaning." She put emphasis on the last word making Damian flush pink. Nothing could be more humiliating than this.
"I love him." Samuel, Lindsay and Damian's heads turned around to face Cameron, they were clearly taken aback by the hipster's words. Damian couldn't help but feel his heart pound as he heard those words escape Cameron's lips.
"I don't understand" Lindsay said, utterly confused at Cameron. "I thought you didn't swing that way"
Cameron shrugged. "You're a massive fan of Glee, Lindsay. Surely by now you can accept that people aren't tied down by labels. I can't explain it exactly—it's just him. I've never looked at a person, guy or girl and felt my stomach and my heart ache. Every time he looks at me I can literally feel myself blush, he looks at me like I'm the only person in the world who matters, who's opinion he cares the most about. I was scared of telling people at first but now." He paused to look directly into Damian's eyes. "I want to tell the world I love him." He said affectionately.
"Cam." Damian's voice hitched, his eyes were watering uncontrollably as he stared at the boy he loved. He walked over to Cameron and wrapped his arms around his friend, his love. "I love you." He whispered into Cameron's chest. He couldn't help but let the tears fall as he felt Cameron's hand stroking his hair.
"Lindsay, leave them alone for a bit okay?" Samuel muttered to the startled girl, she distractedly looked over and Samuel and nodded frantically. Giving one last look to the boys. A small smile played on her lips at the serene moment. "Good luck" she whispered so quietly that the boys couldn't here. Samuel led her back out of the room and closed the door quietly on the couple.
They slept in each other's arms that night, not letting go. At odd points in the night both boys would wake up to find the other staring fondly at them, they would just kiss lazily for a while before either one of them fell asleep and it became a continuous cycle of fond kisses and desperate hugs.
Cameron and Damian weren't in the bottom three; they smiled wide at each other as their names were called out for being safe. After hugging the rest of the contestants and excitedly yelling thanks at the judges they ran out of the room and crashed their lips together in happiness.
Darren and Chris appeared to congratulate them, they were holding hands with each other and both blushed at the questioning gazes of Cameron and Damian.
"Congratulations" Chris said, smiling at the two boys. "I need to go finish my movie now otherwise I'd have stayed to talk to you two more."
"And I've got to uhm, go somewhere" Darren blushed, it was clear that Darren would be joining Chris. Chris nudged him for being so obvious and let go of the shorter man's hand so that he could give Cameron and Damian a hug.
"Good luck in everything, I hope your futures work out fine" Chris told the two smiling boys, they nodded and thanked Chris.
"Don't let this competition get in the way of your relationship okay?" Darren asked.
"Don't worry" Cameron said, shooting Damian a loving glance. "I think all the competition is going to do is bring us closer together" Damian smiled wide at his boyfriends statement and turned to Darren and Chris.
"G'luck with you two as well, hopefully one of us will see you on the set in season 3!" He exclaimed, Darren and Chris smiled and agreed. They waved goodbye and left hand in hand, leaving Damian and Cameron to stare happily after them.
"Well I think out of all of the tasks, Pairability was my favourite." Cameron stated. Damian laughed and nudged Cameron's arm playfully.
"Wait till Sexuality." Damian said seductively. Cameron nearly spluttered and flushed red. Damian laughed and stood up to leave an embarrassed Cameron behind.
