The poll isn't going great…no one is voting so I did my best to write a chapter…you can still vote and there is always room for me to change!!
Disclaimer: I do not and have never owned the clique or its characters.
Massie looked up and saw Derick in the door. "Derick, it's not what-" she began to say but Derick stopped her. "Save it. I guess this is good. It makes it easier on me. We are done, and you want to know what? I'm not that upset. I will save you the trouble. I will pack my things and I will get another room." And with that Derick walked out and went to sit with Cam again. Cam was better after what Massie did. He was now just tired and wanted to go to sleep. "Hey, can you give me your room key? I want to go see Claire," Cam asked Derick when he came back. "Um, yeah sure. I might be down soon to pack my stuff. Massie and I broke up so I'm going to get a new room."
"I'm sorry" was all Cam said before heading down to Derick's room to get Claire.
When he got there he slowly opened the door trying to be quiet. He then walked into the bedroom where he saw her asleep. Her face was all red like she had been crying and he knew she had from the way Massie talked. He felt so bad. He hated when he made her cry.
He crept to the bedside and laid down next to her and hugged her tight. He wanted to live in that moment forever but he couldn't. She awoke and looked over and saw him. She didn't know how to react at first so all she said was "Hi." He responded with a simple "We need to talk." Thoughts were running through her mind. Oh no! he is going to break up with me. Well I guess he should after the way I acted. Man I blew it! Her thoughts were interrupted by him sitting up and starting to talk "Massie told me what you said. None of that's true Claire. No matter what happens between us, I would never cheat on you. I would think you would know that, I mean, I have told you, I love you. Always have and always will." Claire was speechless. The only thing she could think to say was sorry but that didn't seem like enough words. He saw her and how he was at a loss for words, so he asked her for her wrist and to close her eyes. She did as she was told and she felt something on her wrist. When Cam, told her to open her eyes, she did. There was the tennis bracelet. She hugged him and inhaled his --. She asked him two words before she told herself everything was ok "Forgive me?"
"Of course I forgive you silly. It was all just a big misunderstanding. Now that we have gotten over that, come on lets go back and get Massie, Josh and Derick to go out to get something to eat." He responded with a smile on his face. How could he not be happy? He was back with Claire and everything was sorted out.
She looked at him puzzled wondering where Josh came into the scene and Cam told her everything that happened, except for Josh and Massie kissing cause he didn't know that happened. Then they left the room and headed up to theirs where they found everyone in the living room sitting on the couch.
"Finally, you guys are back." Derick said with relief. "Massie told me and Josh to stay up here till you guys sorted everything out. Now I'm going down to pack and go home. Too much drama here on the beach. Talk to you guys back home." And with that, Derick left.
"Do you guys want to get something to eat?" Claire asked. "Sure. Just let us go change and meet us in the lobby in 10." Massie responded. Then she led Josh out of the room while Claire went to the bedroom. Before Massie could escape Cam grabbed her arm and dragged her in the guest room. "I need to talk to you. I want to still propose to Claire but I don't know if it's a good idea." Cam said quickly knowing he didn't have a lot of time.
"I think it would be sweet. Where are you going to?"
"I was going to at sunset on the beach tonight. But only if I can get ahold of her parents to ask for permission soon."
"Go call now and then that would be perfect. I will go keep Claire busy while you call them…quietly!" And with that she walked away and left him alone. He took out his cell phone nervously and dialed her number. He knew it by heart since he called her so often in middle school. A boy answered the phone and he knew it was Todd. "Hey Todd. Are your parents home?"
"Yes."
"Can you give them the phone?"
"Why?"
"I want to ask them something and it's really important."
"I will only if you tell me first."
"Fine but don't tell anyone. I'm going to ask for Claire's hand in marriage. Now go give your parents the phone." Cam heard Todd gasp before he went and gave the phone to Mr. Lyons. "Hello?" a deep voice said.
"Hey. This is Cam. Is there another phone that Mrs. Lyons could be on?" Cam heard some fumbling before Mrs. Lyons said "I'm here. Continue."
"Well I was wondering if I had your permission to ask Claire to marry me." Cam heard silence before he heard some sniffling. "What's wrong?" he asked confused. "Nothing. It's just I've always wanted Claire to marry you. And yes you have my permission." "Thank you. Mr. Lyons?"
"You have mine, son, as long as you don't break her heart."
"I promise I won't. Thank you so much."
And after they said there goodbyes, Cam walked into the other bedroom where Massie and Claire were giggling. He passed by them and went to the bathroom to freshen up. He heard Massie say goodbye and then leave. He came out and Claire was changing. She went into the bathroom to fix her make-up and in 5 short minutes they were headed down to Massie's.
Massie opened the door and let them in. She lead them into the living room and handed Cam a box. "Derick asked me to give this to you. I have no idea what it is but he just did." Cam opened it. It was the necklace he bought for Massie. "What is it?" Massie asked. Cam showed her. She gasped. "He bought it for you. Must be he wants me to take it back."
Massie had to hold down the tears. She knew she had made a big mistake. He really did love her. What was I thinking she said to herself quietly. Josh is a drunk who will never love anyone besides Alicia and I had Derick who loved me with all his heart. I messed up. Massie shook the thoughts from her head and decided she needed to get away for a while "Um, go ahead and go to dinner, I'm not hungry. I will be back later." And with that she left. She went down to the beach and just sat and let the wind blow and the tears fall.
After Massie left, Josh decided to not go to dinner, so it was just Cam and Claire going to dinner. They got there and order and talked a bit. Then Cam heard his phone ring. It was a text.
Derick: did Massie give u the necklace? If so please keep it with you until we meet up. I was stupid. Explain later.
Cam didn't want to interrupt the perfect dinner they were having so he put away his phone. Soon there food arrived, and then they decided to take a walk on the beach. Cam knew it was the perfect spot to propose. Just when the sun was setting he stop and took Claire's hand and started to talk. "You know I love you right?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Claire I don't think you understand. I'm madly in love with you. I couldn't imagine my life without you. Without you I'm sure I would die. I have known forever you're the one I want to be with forever and always. I guess what I'm saying is Claire" there was a slight pause and Cam got down on one knee and pulled out a box. "Will you marry me?"
Claire was speechless. The tears started to fall because of him. But were they tears of joy?
