22//the search

cameron;

"i'll try to." she said in a soft voice, almost a whisper.

it was clear that we were both still confused and scared about what had just happened.

what had that mysterious guy meant when he said they would kill him?

who would kill him?

all of these questions still floated like little clouds in my head.

maeve looked especially worried.

i turn to glance at her.
she looked deep in thought.

what was she thinking about?

hopefully she wasn't actually considering helping the guy out.

we don't know anything about him.
he could be a criminal for all we know.

something about him made me uneasy.
almost like he did something terrible in order for people to be chasing after him.

but the most important thing on my mind right now was maeve.

how she brought herself to forgiving me.
after all, i wouldn't have forgiven myself.
after what i had done.

she must have felt betrayed.
angry.
but rejected at the same time.

i was so lost in my thoughts, i almost crashed into a pole.

"shit" i whisper as i thankfully steer back onto the road.

i look to my right again, seeing that maeve had fallen asleep.

she looked so beautiful.

stop it, cameron.
she doesn't want anything with you.

maybe she once had.
but i ruined it, as usual.

sometimes i just wish my hormones would take a break.
it makes me do stupid things, hurting the ones i care for most.

i began chuckling when i heard her soft snores.
her delicate snoring.
i could wake up to that everyday.

stop being creepy, cameron.

right.

it's funny- she would tweet me all the time.
how did i not notice her sooner?

there are so many fans, i can't possibly respond to them all.
i wish i could though, because some of them are so dedicated.

i wish that i could pay them back somehow.
they deserve my time, because they're the reason why i get so many amazing opportunities today.

dedicated fans like maeve.
"cloudycam"

she's so cute.

i pull up along the street as i finally find the address.

this took longer than expected.

a sudden feeling of urgency jolts me out of my thoughts.

i remember: we don't know how much damage he could have done.
with that damn phone.

"maeve, wake up." i say, watching her flutter her eyes open.

she flinches at the sunlight hitting her eyes.

"are we there yet?" she yawns.

"yes. now get up and let's go." i respond, before opening the door and stepping out of the car.

it takes her a minute or two to get out of the car.
she looks so mentally drained.

"let's get this over with." she says sleepily, before following behind me to the front entrance.

wait a minute..
how are we going to get in?

i wish i had thought this through..

he certainly won't just let us in so simply.
we need to get in.. but not so obviously.

"maeve, how will we get in?" i ask her, watching her suddenly look more alert.

"i didn't think about that.." she says, her face going pale.

"don't worry. we'll find a way." i reassure her, not wanting her to pass out on the spot.

"let me think.. where there any other entrances you saw the first time?" she asks me.

"don't remember, let's walk around the building to search for more entrances." i suggest.

we walk side by side as we take a walk around the building.

i can hear her anxious breaths beside me, making me immediately guilty.

it's my fault this even happened.

"cameron?" i hear, as a hand waves in front of my face.

"h-huh?" i ask the voice, snapping back into reality.

"i found one." it says.

i turn to the voice to see maeve, standing near a doorway.

"however, i don't know if this is discreet enough." she pouts, looking completely frustrated.

the things we do for phones.

"let's look for more." i say, before continuing my walk around the building.

"sure." i hear behind me.

after searching around the entire building, we find no other entrance.

"the door i found will have to do. we can try to open it, come on." she says, jogging to the other side of the building.

"what do you think you're doing?" i hear a low, sinister voice behind me.

oh, shit.
