CAMILLE
I sat at lunch by myself.
I was still in shock about maya.
I'm so lost.
How could someone I didn't like so much, hurt me so bad once they died.
"Hey..." Kadence comes up to the table with Jared and Mason.
I didn't say anything. Just continued staring into space.
"How did this happen?" I asked.
"Rj said-"
"I want the truth" I sternly say.
"It was that dog friend of yours-" Jared starts.
"WE ...don't know if that's true. It could've been any one of them" Kadence cuts Jared off.
Dog?
"I don't understand" I shake my head.
"I'll come over tonight and we can talk" Mason looks me in my eyes.
I missed him.
These days, he's the only person I want to be around.

Mason and I sat in my room, in silence.
We were supposed to be talking about maya but I just needed him here with me.
"Change me" I say looking back at him.
"What?" He chuckles.
Don't piss me off.
I just lie back down and acted like I never said anything.
"Camille you can't just wake up one day and want to be changed. That's not how that works"
"Then forget about it" I pulled his arm closer to me.
One day im going to grow old and Mason won't even want me anymore.
Or I might get into another crash and die.
"You have to think about your dad. You wouldn't be able to see him anymore. The volturi will kill anyone who knows about us-"
"But I know about you" I turn all the way around giving him my full attention.
"Kadence connected herself with you when we first met. That's why she's so close to you. It's like she's your security blanket. The volturi can't see past Kadence. They don't even know you exist"
Mason explains.
"I could do the same for my dad"
"It's not that easy. We're not all the same" he says.
I put my forehead on his. "I want this...us forever" I whispered.
He connects his lips with mine. It turned into a full make out session. Crawling on top of him, I deepened the kiss.
"Hey!" My dad shouts scaring the life out of me.
"Dad get out!" I yell jumping off of Mason.
He just laughs and takes another sip of his vodka before walking off.
I make a confused face to Mason.

I cleaned the kitchen before I got ready for bed.
As I open the trash can, I see over 6 liquor bottles and multiple cans of beer.
A tear slides down my face. This all feels like Deja vu. My dad has officially lost himself like he did when mom died.
Looking in the living room, my dad sat there staring off into space.
My heart broke for him but still I wiped my tears and went upstairs to my room.
Grabbing my phone off the bed, I find India's contact and called her.
It rung for a long time before she answered.
"We need to talk" I say pulling a her on her.
"There's nothing to talk about Camille"
"Really? After you left me to die, I'm pretty sure I deserve an explanation." I remark sitting down.
"You left yourself to die once you chose those dead people over me. Not only over me but over everyone around you." She says before hanging up.
I refused to call her back. Nobody realizes how much stress they're putting onto me.
They want me to keep everybody happy when they don't even know how to do it themselves.
