Chapter Four
"Not Only For You"
"Cameron, you look familiar."
"Yeah --- she's my English teacher." Randy turns around to see Jess leaning against the wall, with her arms crossed across her chest. "But Randy, don't worry, my school life'll be just fine."
With that said, she stomps off and walks out of the kitchen and upstairs. "I'll be right back."
Randy follows behind her upstairs to her room. "So Cameron, how long have you and Randy been dating?"
"Officially since yesterday." Mrs. Orton smiles over at her as she points to one of the seats at the island.
"Jess, please open the door."
Through The Used blasting on the other side of the door, she screams out, "Go away!"
"Jessica Anne Orton, open this door!"
"No!"
"Jess, c'mon, as your big brother, I'm asking you to please open the door."
The door slowly opens as Randy pushes it the rest of the way and walks into Jessie's bedroom. He looks over and sees her sitting on her bed, in the corner or the room, staring at the posters arranged on the wall next to her bed. "What do you want?"
"What's up with you?" Randy pulls over her computer desk chair and places it next to her bed, as he takes a seat, and watches his baby sister.
Jess slowly turns to look at him. "I lied. It's weird for you to date my teacher. I though maybe you were just gunna go out for dinner, but now you're her boyfriend." He watches as she pulls her dark brown locks into a high ponytail.
"What's bad about that?"
"The fact that everybody is gunna think I can't get an A in that class on my own because my brother, who's supposed to be my best friend, decided to hook up with my teacher."
"Jess, you should have told me how you felt."
"I thought it wouldn't last."
"It's you with someone at home. You've never been able to hold a relationship with someone at home."
"I know, but this is different. You may only think of her as your teacher, but she's an amazing person, Jessie."
"I never said she wasn't. It's just gunna take some time to get used to it obviously, but if she means that much to Rans, I'm willing to work at for it. You're my big bro and you deserve to be happy."
"That's all I'm asking. Thanks, kiddo." He smiles over at her before reaching over and giving her a hug. "Wanna head downstairs and see Mom and Dad grilling her?"
"Sounds good." Jess smirks over at Randy as they both stand up. Randy smirks back at Jessie as he wraps his arm around her shoulders as they walk out of her room.
"So you're Jessica's English teacher?" Cameron smiles and nods. "How long have you been teacher? You seem pretty young."
"This is my second year, but I'm still in school."
"How old are you?"
"Twenty-four; twenty-five in just a few months." Mrs. Orton smiles over at her.
Cam reaches onto the island counter and takes her coffee mug and lifts it to her lips, before taking a small sip of her coffee. "How is Jessica in class?"
"She's one of my top students, and I'm not saying that just because she's your daughter. Her writing is amazing, and I love listening to her opinions in class. And I look forward to reading her journal entries every week, 'cuz it's obvious she's very family oriented. I can tell that through her entries. And I can tell she loves her brothers." Nate raises her eyebrow at her as she smiles reassuringly back at him. "Don't worry. She writes only good things about you two."
He lets out a deep breath as well as a small laugh.
Mrs. Orton eyes her carefully as Cam looks in her direction and notices she is. "If you were wondering, I am pregnant. Four months."
"And what happened to the father?" Cameron ducks her head down as Mrs. Orton reaches over and places her hadn on top of hers. "I'm sorry."
"No, it's fine. He passed about three months ago."
"I'm so sorry, sweetheart."
"Like I said, it's fine. I just have to accept it and get over it."
"Get over what?"
Everyone looks in the doorway to see Randy looking concerned with his arm around Jessie. "Nothing, hun, Your mother was just curious about the baby's father. It's no biggie -- " She turns and looks over at Mrs. Orton, "--really."
"I'll call you later tonight and then tomorrow when I get to Sacramento."
"I had a lot of fun, Rands."
"So did I, babe." He leans over and captures her lips in a soft kiss. After slowly sucking on her bottom lip in between his, he pulls back with a smile on his face. "I promise we're hanging out Thursday night after I get home from the airport and you get home from class."
"Okay. I'll have tests to finish correcting that night as well, but I should have enough time to get most of them done by the time you get there." She smiles over at him as she takes his hands. "I'll be expecting your call."
"I promise I'll call you as soon as I get out of the shower when I get home from the gym."
He leans over and presses his lips to hers again before slowly pulling back. "I'll talk to you later, then." Her smile brightens as she unlocks the door to her apartment.
"Where have you been?" Cam raises her eyebrow at Lynsey, who's sitting on the couch with Tobey laying next to her with his head in her lap.
"Out with Randy. I know; I didn't call you." Lynsey goes to say something as Cam puts her hand up. "I stayed at Randy's last night.
Lynsey raises her eyebrow as she rubs behind Tobey's ears as Cameron puts her purse down on the end table.
"We watches a movie and I fell asleep, so he let me crash there."
"Same bed?" "Cameron smiles and nods. "Damn girl, you have to give me tips. First date with the guy, you're pregnant, and you got in the same bed with him. I can only imagine what would have happened if you weren't pregnant."
"Shut up, Lyns!"
"I'm just saying.. And it seems like you had a very eventful evening and day."
"Yeah, and you have no idea how nice it is to be with someone again. After the past three months, I've been to hell and back, several times, and to be where I am right now, I feel so good. It's amazing to be in my position right now." Cameron smiles as she plops down on the couch next to Lynsey, as Tobey scoots over Lynsey and rests his head in Cam's lap. "And get this. He wants everything to be perfect between us, and he wants to be a part of this baby's life. Isn't that great?"
"Yeah, that's awesome, Cammie. I'm glad you've found someone who not only like you for you, but wants to be there for your baby." Cam smiles as she leans over and gives Lynsey a tight hug."
