Carmen and Cammy's European Vacation
Disclaimer: Not mine
I know I'm writing this story fast, but I have a good plotline for a teen titan story so I'm trying to wrap this up.
So on with the show!
Chapter 15- The Return of Cammy
Oh man I lay there in my bed thinking, this is it. It was the day before the end of Christmas break. Bummer right? Well yes but today Cammy was coming back. I had done a pretty good job of fixing things at Hogwarts. My teachers good stand my presence; I hadn't gotten into any trouble. So everything would be ok right? No, Cammy could completely reject me. She had every right to. If my friend thrashed me like that, I wouldn't forgive her. But Cammy was the complete opposite of me and I prayed she would see this through that perspective. What would I say to her? Oh hey Cam, sorry for thinking you stabbed m in the back. Yeah right. Her train would be getting here soon. I rolled off the bed and walked down the stairs into the common room. Of course there was Wood. I sat down on the couch wringing my hands together.
"Nervous?" he asked randomly.
"About what?" I replied calmly. Well as calmly as I could.
"I don't know trying to salvage your friendship with Cammy" oh yeah; that.
"Maybe we're not meant to be friends" I said trying to comfort myself.
"You two wore pajamas to class; I beg to differ"
"True true" I sighed, "hey Oliver?"
"Would you accept my apology if you were Cammy?" he blushed. Awkward moment.
"Well since I'm not a girl I wouldn't really know"
"Oh come on, you could be a girl…a very broad girl" I thought for a second. "Olivia!"
"Oh my god" I continued.
"Well Olivia will you sincerely accept my apology?"
"Yes" he mumbled.
"Excuse me but girls have high voices" he pitched his voice up an octave.
"Yes" I laughed, that did make me feel better. I stood up.
"Well I'm off to see what the real Cammy thinks"
"Good luck" he was still in his high voice, I gave him a look and he instantly dropped back to normal.
"Well goodbye Olivia I mean Oliver" I walked down to the great hall. Some of the school's ghosts resided there and I happened to catch Nearly Headless Nick.
"Hello Sir Nicholas" I said pleasantly, Olivia had put me in a good mood.
"Why hello Carmen, surprised that I'm really here?" I laughed. The first week of school I was convinced that the ghosts were a hoax so I tried to prove it. Turned out ghosts have feelings too.
"Yes Sir Nicholas" I checked my watch, "gotta go!" he nodded and floated through the wall. There were still some things at Hogwarts I would never understand. I could see an array of students filing in through the entrance. Maybe Cammy missed her train? No such luck; why was this turning out to be so damn difficult. She approached me calmly which was strange because most of our meetings were filled with shrieks.
"Hello Carmen" she said, how formal of her.
"Cammy" returning the favor. She looked at me as if expecting something then continued towards the common room. I mentally smacked myself, great going. I followed her until she reached our dorm. She set her stuff down on her bed and turned around.
"How was your break?"
"Well I made peace with most of my teachers, even Snape" her eyes grew wide. "I even wrote a letter inviting my dad to graduation" Cammy smiled.
"You have changed"
"Yeah and" I was going to have to run over my pride for this one, "I'm sorry Cam" Her eyes got as big as tennis balls. I continued "I know it wasn't you, and I'm so sorry for thrashing you like that and being such a jerk but I'm really trying to change" wow. All in one breath. She pondered for a second, was she going to reject me?
"You apologized" that was all she said, "You never apologize to anyone!"
"Yeah well I've had a lot of time to swallow my pride" As if we had an impulse we pulled into a tight hug.
"Good" I heard her whisper. We pulled apart. "So how was your Christmas?"
"Pretty quiet, nothing big" I replied "You?"
"Same here, but I got you something" I grinned.
"Really?"
"Yep"
"I got you something too" I pulled out her gift, she unwrapped it and gasped.
"Oh Carmen you didn't have to" it was a book on healing. Cammy wanted to be a healer. She pulled out her gift to me. Tears came to my eyes. It was my black bag (the one Katie destroyed) with a new American flag.
"Thank you" I whispered. I wiped the tears from my eyes. "But enough crying; I have a favor to ask"
"What?"
"Exams"
"Yeah"
"Can you help me pass them?"
"Oh yeah". The dangerous duo was back!
