Chapter Two

Cameron's P.O.V

I've never talked this girl in my life. She looks like such a geek. She was in a few of my classes last year. But, when I looked into her gorgeous brown eyes, a part of me knew I had to help her. I knew that it was fate that we met. I knew that I was suppose to save her. 

I finished washed my hands. I looked in the mirror.
Damn I looked good today! 

I heard some screaming coming from the living room. She must be watching tv. 

I started walking back and I saw the picture she was staring. It must be her dad. 

"YOU STUPID LITTLE B***H!" I heard a woman scream. I ran toward the living room. I was shocked. This woman was kicking Cloe in the head! I knew at that moment, this is what I was saving her from... 

Cloe's P.O.V

"Get your nasty hands off her!" 

Cameron pushed my mom off of me. I couldn't thank him enough. 

He picked me up bridal style and walked towards the door. 

"I know who you are, you probably don't know me, sorry for not introducing my self." he reached out his hand gesturing her to shake his hand "Nice to meet you Linda Anderson, my name is Cameron Massarotti." and with that we exited the apartment.

My head shot up.. No way.. I went to school with this kid and I never knew he was a Massarotti?? 

The Massarotti's owned the largest electronic company in the country. They were just like Apple! My mom had just started working in the company as a customer service representative. 

Cameron walked back towards me and helped me up. We walked out of the apartment, I looked at him, my eyes were full of tears. I felt broken. I have no where else to go now. I cant go back to my mom. Thoughts rushed through my head like race cars.

"I'm sorry Cameron, I didn't know she would come home and I- I'm just sorry!" I fell to my knees. My sleeves started to get soaked because of how much i was crying.

Cameron pulled me close and held me in his warm embrace, 

"It's okay Cloe. I'm suppose to be here. It was fate. Your safe now I will take care of you."

Cameron took me to his red fancy convertible. After about half an hour of driving, we finally reached a huge mansion. It was yellow with white shutters. We pulled up to the front door and someone named Frank drove Cameron's car to the garage. 

Cameron led me to the giant front doors and when we got in I felt my knees get weak. His house was beautiful! There was a grand staircase that was giant. Everything looked perfect from some fancy magazine.

"Samantha!!!! I'm home!!" Cameron screamed. 

I looked over and saw a beautiful woman standing there, she was probably a model. She had long curly brunette hair flowing down her back. Big beautiful hazel eyes. And a smile that could light up an entire room. 

"Cammie!!!" she squealed. Cameron turned to me. 

"Cloe this is my girlfriend Samantha." he said with a grin on his face. He turned to Samantha 

"Babe, this is Cloe, I'll tell you about her at dinner." 

"Hi Cloe!! Nice to meet you." she smiled and shook my hand. Oh my god she was breathtaking. 

Cameron pulled her over to him and kissed her forehead. I could see the love they had for each other.  I stood there awkwardly. 

A couple seconds later Samantha cleared her throat. 

"I have to go to work, I'll see you later babe" she hugged Cameron again and smiled at me. 

"It was nice meeting you." 

Cameron and I stood at the front door looking at each other. There was an intense feeling between us. We stood like this for a good ten minutes then, we. heard a loud roar. 

I looked down at my stomach and back up at Cameron. I could feel my cheeks getting hot. How embarrassing! My stomach was growling right in front of him!

"Let's go grab some lunch." Cameron smiled at me breaking the intense feeling. 

"Sandy!!!" he screamed. 

A middle age woman walked in, she was wearing a maid outfit,

"Bring Cloe upstairs and find her something to change into." she grabbed my hand and led me to a closet. 

The closet was huge! It was like ten of my apartments! Sandy guided me to a beautiful white strapless cocktail dress  She smiled and handed it to me,

"This will fit perfectly, go try it on."

I walked into a corner and slipped the dress on, it did fit perfectly. I walked back to Sandy and she brought me to what looked like a beauty salon in the house! 

After about an hour of different people doing my hair and makeup I was finally ready. Sandy brought me to the grand staircase. Cameron had put on a suit and was waiting at the front door. He looked up and his jaw dropped, 

"Do I look okay??" I blushed. 

"Y-You look... Amazing." 

"Why do we have to go to such a nice place just for lunch?!" 

I asked as I looked around at the huge restaurant. There was a huge glass chandelier in the middle and beautiful paintings all over the walls. 

It looked like a movie!

"Im a Massarotti, that's how we do it." he smiled as we were walking to our table. 

We ordered our food and sat in silence for about five minutes. 

I don't know why but I felt so comfortable with Cameron, I barely know him but it just felt right. 

"Cloe, can you explain everything to me? You know... About your family." he looked down into his lap, I could tell he regretted asking me the question. 

I never told anyone about it but I really wanted to tell Cameron. I needed someone to talk to. Something about him made me feel so secure. 

I told Cameron everything and as I was finishing, our food came out. I looked up at him and he had this angered expression on his face,

"HOW COULD THEY BLAME YOU FOR THAT?? YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL! IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT!!" 

"Cameron!! Shhhhh." I looked at him shocked. He started turning at the sudden realization that he was in a restaurant, he said sorry to everyone and looked back at me. 

"It's okay Cameron, I'm use to it. I'm going to graduate this year and then I'll be gone forever. don't worry about it." 

"No no no no! I will not let you go back there! Please Cloe. Stay with me. You'll be safer with me."

I looked into his eyes. Cameron was genuinely worried about me, he was probably the only person in this world who cared.

"I won't let you go back." he said sternly. 

"I won't." I looked up at him. He was right. I had to get out of there. "I have some money saved up. I'll stay at a motel near the school for now." 

"Cloe I can't let you do that!!"

"Please Cameron! It's either that or I'm going home!" 

He looked so worried. 

"Fine, I'll check on you everyday though." 

I nodded in agreement. 

"Tell me about you and Samantha!" i said changing the subject. 

He raised his eyebrow at me and I just smiled.

"Well, she's my girlfriend.."

"Well duh!! Details!" I was so excited! They were such a cute couple! 

"We've been dating for 3 years now. And she's my best friend. Uhm she's older than me by a year and she is a professional model." he smiled as he talked about her. As if he wasn't even talking to me. Cameron kept going on and on about how much he loved her. 

I smiled. Someday I'll find someone. :) 

"Cloe, I heard about what John did to you, care to explain?"

Why did he have to bring it up!! I looked up and started. 

I told Cameron everything. From using me, to the cheating, and the incident in the hall. 

I looked up he looked furious again. 

"THAT LITTLE D********G! HE IS NOT A MAN!! I swear Cloe, I'll help you get back at him."

I wanted nothing more than to make John feel the pain I felt. The feeling of being torn up and not being able to breathe. Feeling sick to your stomach. The feeling of wanting to just kill yourself cause the pain is too much. I want him to know that im human too! 

Lunch was over and we went back go Cameron's house. I asked him to take me home to grab my clothes and stuff. 

"ARE YOU CRAZY?!" I jumped as he screamed. 

"Uhh.. No.. I just need clothes.." I said. 

"GO UPSTAIRS AND PICK OUT WHATEVER YOU WANT. IM NOT LETTING YOU GO BACK!!!" 

"I can't just take that clothes Cameron.."

"Why! It's not like I wear it. It's just laying there."

He had a point. I went up and took  a few outfits, I felt like Cinderella! 

After I packed my clothes I went downstairs. Cameron had about 10 suitcases downstairs waiting for me. 

"WHAT IS ALL THIS??" i looked at all the suitcases.

He smiled. "Essentials! Now come on! Let's get you to your new temporary home!" 

 

We got to the motel and Cameron helped me get settled. He said goodnight and with that I was all alone. 

I laid in bed and for the first time in a long time, I felt free. It all happened in one day, and I'm finally free. I finally have a bed to sleep on. I looked out the window and looked at the moon. It was beautiful, 

"Thank you Cameron." and with that I fell asleep without crying for the first time since my dad died.

Hey, in this chapter you do better making everything happen so quickly, but place I still noticed it is when they go to diner. It goes from being in the house to the restaurant and . And if you don't explain later in your book what happened to her with her family, you need to. You do a good job making those transitions later on like when he drove her from her moms to his house and from his house to the motel but that one spot is still jumpy.

"and we went back go Cameron's house." Doesn't make much sense.

The only other comment I have about this chapter is that when you say the whole thing about how she got ready and everyone was there to dress her do her hair and make up, sound too good to be true, (something you only see in fairy tales), but if you want to leave it, that's fine, but maybe explain why (the model girlfriend always has a crew on hand, maybe?) Something that makes it more believable. But good job!
