*** JULIAN'S POV

"..This time, it's you and I against the world"

Cameron says in the most softest voice he'd had ever used in a very long time.

I shift from foot to foot watching awkwardly as Skylar flings herself at my friend once again, louder sobs escaped her. Cameron stiffens at the touch yet he doesn't pull away.

He awkwardly pats her back slowly as she clings unto him for dear life . It seemed to me as though she needed his hugs.

Scratch that. She craved his touch, warmth. She yearned for it. Maybe neither of them had realised it but I had watched them hug and hold on to each other more than thrice in the last few minutes.

A smile tugs at the corner of my lips as I slowly move away to get some first aid kit.

They didn't even notice me stow away.

I had wanted to apologize for being such a dickhead but then I guess I'll have to wait. I leave them to it.

Maybe Cameron hasn't realised it, but he's growing a soft spot for mother and son.

I hope he doesn't realise it soon because if he does, he's surely going to crawl back into his shell afraid of letting himself go.

That's how much of an idiot my friend can be.

Too scared to fall in love.

Too scared of commitment.

Hell, he doesnt even like weddings.

Perhaps I should come up with a plan to get them closer.

I grin at the prospect.. Oh it's been so long since I played Cupid.

This is gonna be exciting.

***

CAMERON'S POV

I begin to pull away after a while, the hug getting too comfortable for me.

I hate how I want to keep sniffing the minty scent in her hair.

I hate how I love the feel of her soft hair spread wildly, cascading down my chest as her face was pressed into my neck.

I hate how I love the feel of her soft skin.

I f*cking hate how I want to keep holding her.

She's so damn tiny for heaven's sake

. I pull away when she grips me immediately, shaking her head while biting her lips, her hair swaying in the process F*ck.

I almost growl.. That's so s*xy. She's sexy.

"No..p..please just... Hug me for a little longer please.. I... I just want your a..arms around me... They make me feel.. C..comfortable"

she sputters the words out, a blush rising up her rosy cheeks as she ducks covering her face with her hair in an attempt to hide her blush. I let out a chuckle at her innocence.

Cute.

"Come here princess"

I spread my arms out.

She blushes deeply at my endearment before embracing me again, nuzzling her face in my chest.

She does that a lot. We stay that way for a few more minutes before she pulls away, sniffing.

"Feeling better?"

I ask

"Yes. Thank you"

she says quietly. I clench my fists tempted to push a strand of hair behind her ears.

"Come.. Let's head back to my house and pretend everything is okay"

I hold her hand to help her up when she groans.

Sh*t.

Her arm.

Julian had dragged her harshly.

Her wound was bleeding too.

"Damnit.. Your arm. I'm so sorry princes."

"I..it's fine"

she protests acting like it doesn't hurt when it probably hurts a ton.

"I'll go get the first aid kit. No arguments"

I carry her, setting her on the sofa before turning, suddenly realising Julian's absence.

Where's he? He should be apologising to Skylar for misjudging and hurting her like that. My eyes finally find him resting against the door to his kitchen.

He was staring at me. Making stupid kissy faces and a love sign with his hands.

"F*ck you"

I scowl flipping him the bird.

He turns and sticks his ass out wiggling at me. I roll my eyes.

He's such an idiot.

I hear soft giggling and I turn to find Skylar staring at us amusedly as she giggled.

"Sorry. He's an idiot most of the time"

I say to her and rush towards the kitchen, shutting the door behind me so Skylar doesn't see us.

"You're such an idiot Julian"

I growl lowly.

"You like her"

he says wiggling his eyebrows.

I blink, opening my mouth to insult him or Better yet deny it but nothing comes out.

I try again yet I can't get any words out.

My mouth just keeps opening and closing like a fish out of water.

Why can't I speak? I blink again.

"You like her Cam"

he says again and this time his words hit me hard. Do I like her? No I don't.. I certainly do not. I don't. I can't like her. I don't. I do not like her.

F*ck I do not.

"Don't Cam. Don't coil back into your shell again. Let it go. Let it go and you'll realise falling In love isn't so bad. Not evey woman is like Natalie you know.. Just.."

"No.. Bullshit. I do not like her Julian do keep your damn assumptions to yourself"

I turn around, completely forgetting about finding the first aid kit and storm out, ignoring Skylar.

I know it was stupid but it was the only thing I could think of doing.. Running.. Running from the truth.

***

SKYLAR'S POV.

The room was entirely dark save for them dim lamp that was on when I come to and I realise it's night time already.

The bed felt familiar and the walls too.

I immediately realise I'm back in Cameron's home.

I sigh.

I must have passed out after all that bleeding.

I look over my shoulder and realise there's a new bandage and new sling on my arm too.

My throat feels clammy and dry. I'm thirsty.

I try to sit up when arms suddenly stretch out to stop me.

"Careful. You'll hurt him"

Cameron was here all along while I slept? I look to my side to find Sean asleep.

I let out another sigh.

This illness Is beginning to wear him down making him tired and sleepy after a tiny activity.

I need to start taking him for check ups again. It's been long.

"You'll hurt yourself too. Relax. The nurse almost bit our heads off when she came by some hours ago and found out your would had reopened. She even threatened to arrange for an ambulance to take you back to the hospital. God knows it took a million promises to look after you very well before she let go. So please relax"

he adds and I nod, resting back.

He pours me a glass of water, bringing it to my mouth and helps me drink.

I watch him as he sets the glass down, wondering what's going through his mind.

Back at Julian's house, he was nice to me for a while and then he suddenly ignored me.

Maybe he hates you Skylar.

For deceiving him.

My subconscious mind chides.

"I don't hate you"

His deep smooth voice cuts through my thoughts almost like he was reading my mind.

"I didn't ignore you earlier because I hate you or anything. I'm just f*cked up. I haven't had a normal relationship with anyone in a long time. Julian is the only one I interact with that's why. I'm sorry for being a douche"

"You don't owe me an apology. It's okay Cameron"

I say softly.

"D..don't" he mutters through clenched teeth like he's in pain

"Don't what?"

I ask in confusion.

"Don't say my name like that"

"How Cameron?"

My brows furrow further not understanding a single thing.

"When you say my name like that, it just..."

He runs a hand through his hair sighing heavily.

"..wanna makes me kiss you so damn bad.

Read " Unattainable Perfection " by the same author ( eliza )

. You drive me crazy girl. You just lay there, with your hair all over the place and still manage to look so damn beautiful. So f*cking beautiful it hurts. And I just want those lips on mine, savoring them, kissing them, have my tongue swim around in your mouth just to have a taste."

I suck in a sharp breath at his outburst, my cheeks heating up as I feel a blush rising. How can a man be so unapologetically vulgar yet so hot at the same time? Damm it, who tied my hair behind me? I could have covered my face with it.

I peek at him from under my eyelashes and realise his eyes are on my lips, staring at them, a dark look In his eyes. Oh God. Involuntarily my eyes move to his lips.

Let me pass out now.

Crimson full lips that look so soft.

Oh God, will they taste as soft as they look? Dear Lord, what am I thinking? My eyes snap back to his to find him already staring at me. So hard I almost felt he was staring right through my soul.

"Cameron" I say before I can stop myself, a sudden need, overwhelming me, intensifying by the second. His penetrating gaze only doing so much as igniting the flame burning in me. Just to have him..

"Girl"

he mutters lowly, like a growl. I bite my lip, hearing him cuss instantly.

"Would you.."

He trails off leaning in to caress my cheeks.

I sigh, leaning in to his touch.

God help me.

"Would you slap me if I kissed you right now princess? Because I'll gladly take all those slaps just to have a taste your lips right this very second princess"
