Cameron's' POV:
"Open up now!" Jake screamed again, pounding on the door with so much force that I could practically feel the room shaking. Shit. Shit. Shit. "I know you are in there, you little worthless shit! You cant hide from me forever, you little twerp. Open the fucking door right now, or I will knock the fucking door down. I am not kidding around here! I will knock the freaking door down and than I will be the living crap out of you. When I am finished you will be bruised from head to toe. I am not playing around here, you worthless snot."
"Hurry up." I whispered to Marissa frantically. "Think of something fast. Hurry. You know full well he is capable of it. Do you know how fucking huge he is? That guy will kill us."
"Trust me I noticed. I know how fucking huge he is. I am not blind." she snapped. "And I am thinking. Quit rushing me." she added, her face scrunched up in deep concentration.
"Hurry up." I said again. "I don't want my ass whooped. At least not by him. Not that I don't deserve it though. But still, if he beats my ass, it's not going to be pretty."
"I know, Cam." she said getting annoyed. "I am thinking. I am trying to get us out here. Trust me here. I will do it, eventually. I will figure something out. You think I want that bitch to whoop my ass too? I don't. And that bitch can throw an punch when she is pissed off. We are going to get out of here alive. Don't you worry. I will find an way. You trust me right?"
"Obviously I do. Since I am sort of counting on you. Hurry though. I somehow don't think he's kidding around. Look at how the door is shaking." I said urging her once again to hurry up. Man that girl is talking her sweet time thinking. Will she hurry up? Don't she see that it is matter of life and death. And that she is risking our lives for taking her sweet time.
I heard the banging got louder and louder. And more yelling. "Marissa." I begged once more. "Hurry. Please tell me you think of something."
"God, you are such an wimp. Sometimes I wonder what Leah sees in you. It's a good thing you are cute. Otherwise no girls will go for you, for being such an wimp." she snapped, her face still scrunched up in concentration.
"I am not. I am so not an wimp. That is so ludicrous." I protested. "Well, at least I am usually not. Any guy in his right mind, will be scared like shit, if they were put in this exact situation. I mean come on, the guy is protective like an older brother. And Bella is an really good friend. And she is protective of her too. And sometimes Marissa I wonder why you two are best friends."
" I should be killing you for saying something like that to me. But I will ignore it. I'll just pretend you just lost your mind right at that second and pretend you were uttering nonsense. But next time you wont be so lucky. Listen I got it. I got an plan that can possibly save our asses. So you better be nice. Well, at least I think I got it. It might be successful. Or it might not, and it will blow up in our faces. Who knows? It is risky and dangerous. And I am not kidding about that. Well what's life without danger and risks anyways? We all have to live a little sometimes. But the point is, it could work. Here's what we have to do. I have an balcony. And the balcony is pretty wide, so we can have enough space to slide down. The way the balcony is laid out we will have plenty of space, so we wont fall as easily. But we got to be careful, because if we do fall, we can fall to our deaths, since we are on the tenth floor. So be careful. I don't want you dying on me here. Leah will kill me, on top of what just happened. From there, we can reach the ladders that are hanging at the sides of the buildings and we can climb the stairs. We can get down from there. What do you think of the plan?" She asked.
"It sounds great. Dangerous, but it's better than nothing. Now let's get the fuck out of here." I said grabbing her hands.
There was more banging on the door as we headed to towards the balcony.
We stood there for an few seconds nervously.
Than Marissa turned towards me. "I'll go first. I'll meet you down there. I will be waiting. Don't take too long though. I am very impatient, I wont wait for long. But be careful. Wish me luck." she said.
"Be careful." I whispered. "If you fall, that's it. Be safe."
"I will Cameron. And I am sorry for getting you into this. I am sorry for wrecking your relationship with Leah. Come down few seconds after me okay. Don't be scared. Don't let it paralyze you."
"I am sorry." I said. "And thanks, Marissa. For bailing me out like this."
"No problem. I know what it feels like when you are trapped with no where to go."
I held my breath as I watched her as she tried to climb down from the balcony to reach towards the ladders. My heart is beating like crazy, knowing in the few seconds I will be doing the same.
Marissa's POV:
I stood there waiting for him for the past ten minutes. And I started to wonder if he made it. It took me at least five or six minutes to make it down here.
I checked my watch again. I sighed. This waiting for someone crap really sucks. I hate waiting.
Please. Please. Please. Let him make it. Please, let him be safe. I already pissed my best friend of. Well currently not my best friend. I sort of ruined that. But she will kill me if she find out I am semi responsible for killing her boyfriend.
Would boyfriend be the appropriate word? Leah still haven't talked to Cameron. So I don't know what their status is.
Than I saw Cameron safely gotten down. I sighed from relieve.
"Oh thank goodness." I breathed. It felt good to be able to breathe again.
"Oh thank goodness, you are here waiting." he said.
"I'm glad you are okay." I said reaching to give Cameron an hug. "I was really worried."
"You were worried?" he asked. "I thought I will never see the day that Marissa Gonzales will be concerned about someone." he teased me gently.
"Ha ha, that's funny. Not." I said dryly.
"I was worried. I was wondering if you were okay. If you got down okay. And I was relieve to see you here standing. I wasn't sure what I was more relived of, the fact that you didn't walk off, or that you were there waiting for me and that you are okay."
"Again ha, ha real funny. Not." I said again as we walked down the street.
"You want to go to Starbucks for some coffee?" Cameron asked. "I'm paying."
"Sure, why not." I said. "I never thought in an million years I would go on an date with you."
"Yea." he said. "It's not an date is it?"
I laughed. "Relax, dude. Of course not. We are two people going to have coffee with each other, enjoying each other's company. I was just joking with you. Relax, dude."
He relaxed. "It's not that I don't want to date you or anything. It's the fact, that I am taken. And the fact that I already fucked everything up."
"Dude, I like you. I do. I think I may even have an crush on you. I mean a lot of people do. But I would of never gone for you, because you are with my best friend. I would of never do this to her sober. I would of never gone for any one's boyfriend. I only hook up with single man. But unfortunately this time I wasn't. And this had to happen. I want you to know that, I would of never hit on you, or do anything if I was sober."
"Girl, relax. I don't think you are an hoe or anything. Or any of the other stuff, people say about you. I mean sure, you sleep around. But to me, you are anything but an hoe, or slut, one might call you. You are just Marissa to me."
I smiled. "You know, Cam. You really have an way with words you know. You are quite charming."
Omg, I am sorry for an exteremly late update. I promise I will try to update this fan fiction more regularly. :) More Sam and Leah next chapter. I just love those two together. :) Review please. Peace out.
