Camille's POV
"Bye Draven" I bid my lovely driver farewell with a smile which quickly deflated cause of the reality that I was in west hill,I couldn't shake the feeling that I might run into Andre Makeila.
Yayyy....not
Can you blame me though?No,a week is not enough for me to forget all that had happened,I almost killed the guy and could be in jail right now but luckily my prayers were answered, "someone's rocking those braids" I heard Lucy holler with Theo right behind her like a shadow, flipping my hair confidently I hollered back "of course,new semester new braids,period"
Like you've had a semester Cam?
Theo asked tugging softly on the tips of my hair "why does it look like they tried to pull the braids while making it?" his question make me roll my eyes playfully "well sweetie,that's cause it's butterfly braids" he nodded in both understanding and confusion "cool,it suits you" he complimented "of course" affirming appreciatively as I stroked my ginger locks "and what are those gold loops in t_" bursting into a chuckle I replied "Lucy you too?...Lets go to the main building,they're assigning PTs today" dragging both their hands we marched off "where's Skye?" I asked curiously "he was here an hour early to get a good Personal tutor" Theo said dryly while air quoting with one hand and continued "he said we're just a bunch of freshman slackers with zero drive,I can show you the chat"
Sounds like him
Skye could be cool headed and extreme sometimes,it was one of his endearing qualities "well too bad for him these slackers are one hour late" Lucy howled out with a confidence that I couldn't fathom causing a group of student ahead of us to look back and we shot them with our best "we're normal people like you"smile which I was sure they didn't buy.
Finally reaching the main building with the large west hill sign that looked like the Hollywood sign,I took out my phone, adjusted my brown leather jacket and proceeded to take selfies showcasing the sign which I would post on my Instagram by the end of the day "guys let's take pictures after school"I announced all bubbly and they just nodded with smiles.
Bustling through the crowd we made it to the lines of a group of people in a small hall and split up to the ends. Ahead,I spotted a familiar short blond wolf cut "That's Skye upfront" Lucy beat me to it "look at him feeling like a non slacker" Theo's outburst made Lucy and I laughed softly and he gave a cute smile reaching his brown eyes.
After a thousand light years,my turn to fill the PT enquiry form came.walking up to the attendant, I was handed a little slip to fill "that form will determine your assigned PT so fill it by the end of today" a soft yet very masculine voice reached my ears
What the fuck?!
I stopped looking at the form in my hand to look at the owner of the familiar voice and my guess hit the bull's eye.Before any of us could process it all, I stormed off.
Leaning on the wall beside the exit,I rubbed my hands on my thighs nervously and knew in that moment that life definitely didn't even give me lemons...it gave me freaking Limes.
Andre's POV
When I looked up to see the person in front me with gorgeously manicured nails while speaking,I was paralyzed in shock. there she was and then she wasn't, she stormed away before I could act almost like a hallucination,letting out a sigh of dismay I leaned into my chair "tired already?" Tyla,a frequent volunteer assistant asked me "not at all" I stated with confidence "you?" I shot back "not at all,I can do this all day" she said with a flirty smile.
Of course you can
She was built for these things like no one else I'd seen, unlike me,who'd been Coerced by the Dean the second I got here. Returning to the task at hand,I attended to the next person as I tried not to think about what happened previously.
*****
"So you mean she sort of ran away,aren't you the one to do that?" Beck stated matter of factly with a laugh "yes,she did and I don't know why" I stated exhaustively running my hand through my hair accompanied by a soft gust of wind causing the striped umbrella we sat under to rustle "like I don't understand her, a week ago she apologized and now,she's trying to avoid me" Beck simply pushed my milk tea to me and took a long sip from it "feel better Romeo?" his comment earned him a glare "it's not like that...I just don't get it?" and may be I didn't need to,if she wanted to avoid me I'd give her the space to. On that note,I unwrapped my rotisserie chicken and Greek salad ready to dig in "are you going to eat all that?" Beck asked pensively, I stared at his bowl of alfredo pasta and drumsticks with dipping sauce "I'm not sharing my rotisserie,my diet isn't that strict and you know it" he raised hand in defeat at my declaration but we both knew how it was going to end.
After a short reign of silence I spoke up "I'll split if you split your Alfredo" he nodded in agreement and we had our Mini feast.
What can I say? There's love in sharing
After my last bite I checked the time on my watch which read 3:54pm "I'm off to rest a bit before practice" I told him as I stuffed my phone in my pocket "aight, I'll see you at vibranium tonight" sharing a fist bump,I walked off to the sports centre.
I couldn't control the situation between me and Hazel so,I headed to the one thing I was in total control of...
Theo's POV
"Thanks" I murmured softly to the cute attendant in front of me accompanied with a charming smile which she returned with a sexy one, her baby pink hair and round glasses with a refined voice was attractive but I'm guessing Lucy didn't think so cause she kept glaring daggers at both of us.
I haven't even done anything...yet
Before I could even take it to the next level, the hurried clacking of someone's boots distracted me. I turned around to know who it was...
Camille?
She moved faster than a headless chicken, Lucy and I shared a look before hurrying after her, my flirting could wait. Sighting her at the door I stated icily "please tell me you have a good reason for storming off like that?" her glossed lips parted as she took soft breaths with Lucy staring at her with curious eyes "what going on?" Skye asked as he approached us " Cam?" Lucy called out, she stopped looking at her hands on her thighs and met our questioning gazes "I saw Andre Makeila" we all let out exhausted sighs "so?, I thought we were freaking over this" the clap back came out as fast as I thought about it " dude,seriously?" Skye retorted as Lucy gave me a soft glare "I'm sorry" Cam just gave a weak smile at my apology "we are over this,I- I was just surprised and acted without a thought" she smacked her lips and continued "he's not mad at me but I still feel guilty, what if he things turned out worse.... I know its stupid and s_"
"It's not,you're just human" Skye assured her but it didn't seem to make her feel better.
"you made a mistake and you're remorseful so don't let guilt eat at you babe" Lucy statement broke our gloomy circle "she's right,if he can forgive you then forgive yourself too" Skye backed qLucy's words while taking her hand in his.
" we are going to vibranium tonight!" I announced with arms wide "isn't drinking what got us here?" Lucy stated matter of factly which I answered squarely"I know that but vibranium only serves non alcoholics,it's their policy" it was more of a space for vibing than getting wasted which made it the perfect place "so,do I get a yes in this house?" "Yesss" my gang answered with positivity.
With a satisfied grin I walked ahead as the shepherd to these sheep as we headed to find a place on campus to eat.
Camille was going to enjoy tonight that she'll have to forget Andre who?!
