25. No One.
Cam was getting frustrated with the tight closed bag that had apple slices in them. She doesn't understand why someone would close it shut so stubbornly. Are they really worried air will get in? It's stupid because now she can't even eat her lunch. She brings the bag up to her teeth and attempts to rip open the back, but it was a fail.
“Cameron,” Nat said as he reached out and took it from her. “Stop trying, you'll hurt yourself.” he laughed as he swiftly and easily opened the bag, making her glare him before snatching it back.
“I loosen the bag up.” she huffed out and he grinned at her. “Don't you grin at me—just because my parents agree to letting me go, it means nothing!”
“It means I'm smarter and more charming this time around.” he said.
“My dad did say no! You're lucky my mom likes you though and talked to him because without her, I wouldn't be going to Miami.” she said.
“Just don't get pregnant.”, Matt sarcastically said and Cam scoffed with her mouth full of chewed apples. “Oh come on, Cam, you're staying at a hotel with him. I'm sure you to well be sharing a room.”
“I'll be with Ray, I promised my parents.” she said.
“Cam's a goodie to shoes, you know she wouldn't try anything stupid. Even, we already lost Amber in the group, we can't lose Cam.”, Jenny said.
''Oh wow, how awkward.'' Cam said. ''You noisy people.''
''Have you spoken to Kim?" Maria asked. ''She hasn't been picking up her phone,''
''She's fine, just still hurt.'' Cam said who will be visiting Kim after school.
''What about your drummer?" Matt asked Nat.
''Kyle. . .my manager been trying to get in contact with him. He would even answer the door for me yesterday.'' Nat said,
''This is all to crazy.'' Cam said.
''What about Amber?" Jenny asked and both Cam and Nat raised an eyebrow. ''Nat, she's saying her baby is yours. How do you deal with that stuff?"
''I don't spend my days focused on that crap.'' he said. ''Amber hardly comes to school now because she knows her lie is starting to catch up to her.''
''What if it was your baby?" she asked. ''Cam, you'll be step mommy.'' she chuckled.
''I wouldn't have a problem with the baby, its the mother I don't like.'' she said.
''I hear she found out it was a boy.'' Parker said.
''She's four months, it seems a little early.'' Nat said.
''You don't pay attention in class, huh Nat?" Cam groaned. ''Around four months is when you can.'' she said and tapped her nail against the table. She tend to freak out a little when Nat problems come up. A baby was innocent, but his mother was the problem. She was honest when she said it's not the babu fault, she'll probably love that baby if it was Nat's. She just knows Amber as will as everyone else to know she would say this for fifteen minutes of fame.
She felt Nat take her hand from under the table and she looked at him. He gave her a small smile and she forced him a smile back. He took his hand back and wrapped it around her neck, pulling her close to him and kissed the side of her head.

''We missed you today.'' Cam said to Kim.
''I'll be back tomorrow.'' she said, 'Just. . .is anyone talking about me?"
''No, of course not.'' Cam said, putting a hand on her shoulder. ''This isn't your fault.''
''I should have never kissed Kyle back in Los Angeles.'' she said, bring her knees closer to her. ''He was just so charming.''
''Don't blame yourself. Chris was angry, you know he has a small temper.'' Cam said.
''He tried calling me.'' she said.
''Really?" she asked. ''And?"
''I didn't answer.'' she said. ''It took everything in me not to answer or call him back. How would you handle this?"
''I have watched Nat do some crazy things that pissed me off.'' she said, ''I guess I always forgave him when I tried not. I always knew he wasn't never like that and I even a few times blame it on his drug problem. Been clean for a whole three months though. Kim, you just need to give it time and then talk to him.''
''What if he. . .doesn't love me anymore? He barley spoke to me at the dance.'' she said.
''He destroyed a very expensive car because he was jealous for you.''Cam chuckled to lighten the mood. ''He loves you, allot.''
''And Kyle?" she asked. ''I. . .uh, do kind of sorta. . ''
"Oh!" Cam said, eyes widen as Kim bit her bottom lip, ''I know choosing between to guys sucks. Just. . ,take theses days to yourself and think. Nat is Kyle good friend and if Kyle tells Nat he likes you, he must really do.''
''I don't need to be with a guy like Kyle though.'' she said. ''Chris, he's amazing and would do anything for me.''
''I know, Kim, went threw the same thing. Seth, he was everything I want. Smart, nice, confident, and his southern accent was a big plus. Nat, he was a bad boy, but yet, he still understood me and I knew he wasn't like how people make him seem. Sometimes its what you need, not what you what. As cheesy as it sounds.'' Cam said.
''You two can't stay out of each other ass. I'm surprised you came here alone.'' she said, making Cam laugh. ''But you're right, I just need time to think. Nat is good, you just wont ever tell him I said that.''
Can chuckled and wrapped her arms around Kim, ''I wish you would go with us to Miami.''
''Yeah, well, last time I went somewhere with those guys, I puckered up with Kyle. Did he really quit the band?" she asked and Can sighed heavily.
''Nat went to go try and talk to him as we speak.'' Cam said.
*
''Dude, come on.'' Nat said when Kyle didn't look away from the TV because he was playing a video game. ''I've been here over an hour, you have to talk to me.''
''Go back to your girlfriend Nat.'' he said. He then yelled, ''Oh yeah, finally got you!" he said since he just killed a demon.
''You can't just quit the band, we need you,'' he said and Kyle snorted.
''I have been feeling this way for a long time Nat.'' Kyle said as he paused the game and turned to Nat. ''I was so young going into this. KC and Dan, they still love it but I'm tired. I want a job, a girlfriend, go to college.'' he said.
''Do that later.'' Nat said. ''Your my best friend, the band needs you,''
''I can be replaced like that.'' Kyle said, snapping his fingers. ''Nat, your the leader of the band, we're just the people in the background.''
''You guys are important.'' Nat said ''Kyle, I would do anything for you not to quit the band. One more chance. Come to Miami, make the video, and go on tour. We're all different now, you know that.''
''You're different.''' Kyle said. ''I never had a problem.''
Ouch, Nat said and almost mention Seattle, how he was rushed to the hospital for alcohol poison, but that wouldn't get him anywhere. Nat sighed, ''Okay, you're right. But Kyle, please.''
''Is that you begging?" he asked and Nat cursed. ''I'll make you a deal. Get Kim to see me in the next few days and I'll go.''
''What?" Nat questioned. ''Dude, she ain't going to come to see you.''
''You better hope she does because that's the only way I'm going to be going.'' he said, unpausing his game and Nat cursed again.
*
Can scoffed when Nat told her what Kyle told him, ''Kim is to worked up over this, I don't even want her to see him right now.''
''Cam, it's the only way he'll go. I don't want a new drummer, I can't let him quit because of some jealous ex boyfriend.'' Nat said and she glared at him.
''Chris is my friend, remember?" she asked and Nat paused, remembering before he got up couch and walked over to her. ''Right, but Cam, he's my friend and he needs to go.''
''No.'' she said stubbornly.
He wrapped her arms around her waist and gave her a charming smile, ''Please.'' he said, his dimples showing. She melted at how gorgeous Nat is and she wanted to kick him. She couldn't believe how lucky she is for having Nat. He leaned down and pecked her nose, ''Kyle is your friend to. Just gotta put them in the same room, he only want to talk to her.''
''Kissing me isn't going to work.'' she said
''Right, because you deserve to have more then a worthless kiss from me. I should only you how much you deserve, but it's hard to carry the world, impossible to fit in my pocket.'' he said, making Cam's heart beat faster when she realized he was singing to her. She has never heard of it before and God, she loved his voice. He brought his forehead down, placing it on hers. She closed her eyes as he sang, wrapping his arms around her tighter that she was pressed against him.
When he finished, she groaned in frustration, ''Stop being charming!" she said, opening her eyes to glare at him. ''You know poetry?"
''Poetry is just like writing lyrics, of course I do.'' he said. He took one arm out and brushed her bangs back, ''Her hair is like fire burning inside her, eyes green as grass, and beautiful like the sun coming out from a rainy day. She what makes me smile from her gentlness. When she speaks, everyone ready to hear.''
''That was corney.'' she said.
''You're smiling though.'' he said. ''That's what I wanted. See, I smile whenever you smile.''
She put her hands on his biceps, ''Nat, you're to perfect.''
''No.'' he said. ''You're perfect. Only someone like you can change a bad boy.''
''You were never bad, just missunderstood.'' she said. ''But you can still be my bad boy.''
''Good.'' he said, kissing her. She tilt her head back a little, ''Please help me make our friends happy.''
She groaned, ''Fine, Nat.'' she said before wrapping her arms around his neck and kissed him.
She felt him smile against her mouth as he swayed them a little. She didn't want to stop kissing him, but someone walked threw her front house, making them separate quickly.
