Perfectly Imperfect
Chapter 3 // _rhi_stories_
The rest of the school day actually went pretty well. Sometimes I saw Cameron in the hallway, and whenever he looked at me, he smiled and waved. I did the same. I told Holly all about what happened this morning during lunch. She had smiled and said "That's awesome. Maybe you and him can date someday?" then she winked. I silently chuckled to myself. Yeah, like Lexy's boyfriend would ever want to date me. I was walking to the bus stop, and Cameron suddenly ran in front of me. "Hey, you have a cell phone?" he quickly asked. I stopped walking. "Yeah, I do. Why?" I replied, smiling a bit. "Oh, no reason, I was just wondering if I could have your number" he said with a smile and a slight wink. I grabbed a piece of paper out of my backpack, wrote my number down, and handed it to him. "Thanks. I'll text you later" he said, then ran back towards the school. I got aboard the bus and sat in my usual seat, next to Holly. "Cameron asked me for my number!" I squealed. "OMG, that's great! He must like you if he asked you that" she said. "But I probably never have a chance. He's Lexy's boyfriend, isn't he?" I said with an unfortunate tone. "Yeah, he is. But you can get him away from her" she replied, winking. "Haha, I hope, because I think I'm starting to like him" I said, a bit of nervousness in my voice. "I'll help you" she said, excitedly. "I can do it for myself. I may be from England, but I still know how to flirt" I said, laughing. Holly and I just talked about random topics for the rest of the ride. I got home and started to work on my homework. When I was in the almost done with my history homework, my phone vibrated beside me. "New text from: 123-555-6789" It's probably Cameron. I opened the text, and it read "hey amy, its cameron(: wanna hang out?" Did he just ask me to hang out with him? Oh my gosh. I added his number to my phone, then replied with "hiii :) sure! where?" I finished the remaining homework I had, which was only a few more questions on history, while waiting for his reply. My mom always wants me to have my homework done before I do anything fun. My phone vibrated again. "how about Strumen Park? 147 maple street(: see u there @ 6?" the text from him read. I glanced at the clock, 5:18. "that sounds great. see u soon :)" I quickly replied. I started to get ready. I didn't change out of my outfit from school, because I thought then I'd seem too diva-ish, like I have to change my clothes every time I go somewhere different, which isn't me. I just fixed my hair and touched up my makeup. I grabbed my cell phone and a jacket and skipped downstairs. "Mom, I'm going to the park" I quickly said to my mom, who was sitting on the couch watching soap operas. "Who with?" she sternly said, looking away from the screen. Oh crap, if my mom hears I'm hanging out even close to a boy, I'll be grounded. She hates when I'm around guys, which explains why I've only had one boyfriend in my whole life, and even at that, the relationship only lasted two months. "Um, Holly..." I lied, hoping it'd pass. "Be back by 9" she replied and glued her eyes back to the television. I quickly walked out the door and walked to Strumen Park. I found it within 10 minutes, and I saw Cameron. The park was pretty empty, actually. "Hey!" he said with a warm tone. "Heeey" I replied. Okay, now let's hope this is going to go good, and I won't screw anything up.
