this is where the story ends..
Okay I spent all yesterday trying to think of an ending to the story.
I didnt know what to write.
I tried like 4 alternative/alternate/whatever short endings.
Ending #1
Campbell's pov
The next morning...
I lay in my bed.
Maya had left. She was gone.
What am I supposed to do?
Was I supposed to go after her?
That'd be really romantic, but I don't think I can do that and win her back.
She made it very clear that she was never going to forgive me. Even after I made many efforts to get her to take me back.
I should have listened to Maya and stayed away from Karlee; but I didn't.
I'm so stupid.
Knock knock.
Someone's at my door.
"Don't come in." I demand burying myself under the covers.
The door squeeks.
They're entering.
Oh okay, let yourself in.
"I said don't come in!" I yell, sitting up, and throwing the covers off of myself.
Oh God.
"I'm sorry," Maya says, "do you want me to leave?"
No no no no.
Stay.
"Maya..."
"Yes."
"I...I don't understand; I thought you left."
Maya walks closer, sits down on the edge of my bed, and says, "I did, but then I came back."
She shines me a slight smile.
Does this mean what I think it means?
"Cam...I was wrong to just leave," She starts, "you were trying your best to make me forgive you."
"I was trying really hard." I add.
"I forgive you." she says.
Yes!
She leans over and give me a kiss on the cheek followed by a hug.
THE END.
Ending #2
2 months later...
Maya's pov
"Maybe I should talk to him." I suggested while standing up.
"Maybe you shouldn't." Tori suggested pulling me back down to my seat.
"Tori's right, Maya," Tristan started, "dont talk to him. Cam cheated on you; you shouldn't be crawling back to him."
"I'm not crawling back." I deny, "I just want to talk to him."
I stand up again and exit the cafeteria.
I find Cam at his locker.
He glances over at me, then continues rearranging and/ or cleaning out his locker.
I begin walking over to him and reach his locker.
"Hey," I said in a soft tone, "can we talk?"
"About what?" He asked in a casual tone and not trying to make eye contact with me.
"Us." I say.
"There's nothing to talk about." he stated.
"Yes, there is."
"No Maya, there's not. You leaving, told me that you were done with me."
"Cam..."
Campbell's pov
"You left before I even woke up; and when I did, I came after you." I tell her.
She looks stunned.
She didn't know that I had came after her.
I look at her and continue, "Maya, I had apologized so many times and I wanted you to forgive me so bad."
"I still love you, Cam," she admits, "and I'm willing to give you another chance."
No.
Maya left on a plane, hasn't talked to me in 2 months, and now, all of the sudden, she says she loves me and is willing to give me another chance...
What?!
I dont get her.
I shut my locker.
"I love you, too, Maya," I say, "but maybe I dont want another chance."
She freezes; I can tell that she's confused.
I just walk away from her.
THE END.
Ending #3
Maya's pov
The next day...
Tori, Tristan, and I are sitting on my couch eating ice cream.
Both of them are trying to console me by patting my back and insulting Cam.
It doesn't make me feel any better...
When I was on the plane I wondered, was this the right choice?
I mean, was leaving Cam the right choice?
Yeah, Cam made a mistake, but he owned up to it and he tried everything he could so that I would forgive him.
I don't even understand why I just left.
I just did.
When he found out that I was gone, was he sad?
Mad?
Anything?
I need to talk to him.
I stab my spoon into a chunk ice cream, set my bowl on the table, and take out my phone.
I go through my contacts list, trying to find him.
There he is.
His number is listed under the name "Cheesy".
I smirk.
I remember when I used to call him that; he never liked it, but only put up with the name, because I came up with it.
I click call.
"What are you doing, Maya?!" Tristan asked.
I don't answer him.
Its ringing.
Tristan snatches the phone away from me, ends the call, and demands, "Don't call that two timer."
I reach for my phone; he holds it further away and gives me a don't-you-reach-for-this-phone-one-more-time-or-it-goes-in-the-toilet look.
I back away and sigh.
"Maya, you don't need that loser." Tori tells me.
"He's not a loser!" I yell.
They flinched when I raised my voice.
"Sorry. Its just you guys don't understand how I'm feeling right now." I say in a soft tone.
"Betrayed." Tristan said.
"No...well I did, but now, I don't even care about that anymore."
"What?!" They both exclaimed.
I sigh and ask, "Cam's a good guy, right?"
"Yeah, he was; until he cheated." Tristan said.
"Actually, he still is a good guy," I admit, "and I still love him."
"Listen, Maya," Tristan shouted, "he cheated on you. Not just kissed another girl, but had sex with another girl. Do not give him another chance."
Tristan is pushing me over to the Do-Not-Forgive-Campbell side.
"Oh c'mon Tris," Tori says, "We all know Cam is a good guy. He just made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. Forgive and forget, right?"
I like Tori's Forgive-And-Forget side.
"Okay Tori. If Zig cheated on you, you'd forgive him?" Tristan questioned Tori.
Tori hesitates to answer.
"Exactly." he adds.
Things in the room go quiet for good minute.
Ding dong!
Pizza Pizza must be here.
I launch up off the couch and go the the font door.
I unlock it and swing the door open.
Its the pizza man.
He hands me the pizza.
"How much do I owe you?" I ask him pulling $20 out of my back pocket.
He shakes his head and says, "You dont have to pay."
"What?" I question.
"Yeah, that guy already paid for it." the pizza man said pointing to Cam, who was coming up our drive way.
Oh Gosh.
I set the pizza down, step outside, and walk towards Cam.
When I meet up with him, I give him a hug.
"Does this mean you forgive me?" Campbell asks.
I thinking of saying yes, until Tristan's voice pops in my head.
He cheated on you.
Not just kissed another girl, but had sex with another girl.
Do not give him another chance.
"No." I mutter and let go of Cam.
Campbell's pov
Did she just say "no"?
She walks back to her house.
I stand there.
She enters her house and shuts the door.
So we're really over.
I flew over 1000 miles to get to Maya and she just rejects me again.
THE END.
Ending #4
Campbell's pov
If she rejects me again, I will have no other choice than stop trying to win her back.
After about 30 seconds of standing in the cold with no answer at the door, someone opens the door.
Its Katie.
She scowls at me.
"What are you doing here?" She questions me in a harsh, low voice.
"I'm here to talk to Maya." I answer.
Katie steps outside and closes the door.
"You should leave, Campbell." She suggests.
"Why?"
"Why?!" She said, "you broke my little sister's heart, that's why."
"And as you can see, I'm trying everything I can to fix it." I plead. My head droops down and I go to sit on the bench on their front porch.
"Katie have you ever made a mistake that you try so hard to fix, but it seems as if things will never be the same as they were before?" I ask and tears come out of my eyes.
Katie comes to sit by me, stretches out her sleeve, and wipes my tears away.
"Yeah," She responds, "I've made plenty of those."
"So does that mean I can talk to her?" I inquire.
"Um I don't know..."
"Please Katie," I beg, "please."
I make a puppy dog face.
Katie giggles and agrees to let me talk to Maya.
She goes into the house.
Maya's pov
Katie comes into my room.
"Cam wants to talk to you." she states.
Cam's here?!
"Well I dont wanna talk to him." I say.
I miss him so much..., but I can't forgive him.
He had cheated, but what he was trying to do the other day was so sweet.
I dont know...
"Maya, he really wants to talk to you." Katie says.
I get up, go downstairs, and out the front door.
Campbell's pov
Maya comes out the door.
"Hey." I say.
"Hey." she responds.
"Listen Maya, I am really, really sorry," I uttered, "I totally screwed up a good thing, and I would never, EVER do it again."
Maya doesn't say anything.
"I really love you, but I don't blame you for not wanting to continue our relationship," I sigh, "I'll leave you alone now, but I really do wish you the best."
I turn around and walk off her porch.
"Cam wait!" she calls out.
I turn back around; she's walking towards me and gives me a hug and a kiss.
"I forgive you." she says.
"Really?" I question, excitedly.
She nods.
I squeeze her tightly and let go.
I dig into my pocket and pull out the necklace I was trying to give her.
"Do you want it?" I ask holding it up.
She nods again.
She turns around, holds her hair up, I put it around her neck, and connect the hook.
She turns and faces me.
It looks beautiful on her.
She looks down at it and smiles.
She lifts her head back up and gives me a kiss.
THE END.
THANKS TO ALL WHO FOLLOWED THIS STOORY :)
