Some parts of the weeks that followed meeting Cameron were eventful, but for the most part it was practising our instruments, drinking hot beverages (Pax has white coffee with no sugar, Lucy has hot chocolate and I have Earl Grey tea) and playing video games. Sometimes Lucy and Pax go out, leaving me on my own, because I get distracted pretty easily and my bass performance is a bit lacking, but otherwise we spend 24/7 in each other's company - something I really love. Finding true friends is a hard task, but I seem to have found two that I'd give my life to save.
As for our band? There have been a few gigs, but not too many and we've mainly been playing in bars where the people there are too drunk to appreciate music. This is something all three of us have found a little irritating, but Lucy's been really persevering with her guitar, playing riffs in her nightgown before me and Pax have got up. You can tell she's genuinely passionate about music, and she reminds me of Ray from My Chemical Romance - a huge heart and puts their life and soul into music.
That doesn't mean me and Pax don't practise though - we play quite a lot - but Lucy's definitely the passionate one. In that picture we're all in our underwear, and the truth is that we're very 'lazy-ass motherfuckers' as Pax delicately puts it. Still, it's for the band, eh?
When I say I get distracted easily, I mean that Cameron calls me quite a lot now. I recently went to a party of his (that's right - got invited. According to Lucy I looked like Ralph from the Muppets on caffeine when I skipped out the door) and from now on Cameron has been my number one obsession. He calls me a lot and I always answer, even if I piss off the other two because I stop playing a gig halfway through. At night I often fantasise about him kissing me, and I'm often looking at his lips when I'm talking to him face-to-face. He's still single, so that's fine, but I can't ask him out, right? He has to ask me.
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
My phone blasts out the All American Rejects, which happens to be my ring tone for this week. I glace at the screen. Cameron. Immediately I press the green button and press it to my ear. "Hello?" It comes out as a breathy whisper.
"Sunnie! How you doin'?"
I giggle: he knows how much I love F.R.I.E.N.D.S. "I'm doin' good baby, how you doin'?" It's just something we do - little quotes from the programme. The 'baby' isn't sexual (no matter how much I want it).
"You free at half ten this evening? It's a little late but I was wondering if we could chillax at the beach, and it's really pretty at night."
"Sounds awesome. I'll see you there!" I hang up, feeling a little proud of myself because I didn't faint. It's a little buzz of excitement and anticipation when I see that it's already half nine. I grab the keys and go, as Pax and Lucy are at the park.
"Sunnie!" A familiar voice rings through my ears, although it never fails to make my heart skip a beat no matter how many time I hear it.
He runs over to me and takes my hand. I sort of look at his beautiful, artistic hands (you know you're obsessed when you find his hands to be sexy) and I'm not sure what to do. My thoughts whirl around my brain at 200 miles per hour.
Oh God, should I say something?
Do I kiss him?
Is this real?
It is Cameron right? Good.
What am I having for dinner tomorrow?
What is he DOING?
I sort of say little, meaningless things like 'ah.' Luckily, I'm saved from having to do anything because his warm lips are against mine.
All I know is that it feels good before I'm concentrating on nothing but his lips, his hands tugging at the strands of my hair, pressing into the small of my back. When he pulls away I sort of whine a little, wanting more, before looking into his blushing face.
"I'm sorry... I just wanted to kiss you. I have done for a while now," He sounds so nervous, poor thing.
I kiss him on his forehead. "I'm glad you kissed me."
We're talking and kissing for the rest of the night, finding out more about each other physically and mentally. I love the way he's so into rock music, like me, and that he laughs at my pretty twisted sense of humour. His favourite bands are a lot like mine - some modern rock - My Chemical Romance, Trapt, Linkin Park, All American Rejects, Incubus, Rise Against - and he's also into some 90s britpop - Blur, Oasis, Suede, the Verve, etc. We talk about F.R.I.E.N.D.S and how much we love Joey's childlike nature (that reminds me of Lucy, except that she's neither stupid nor a womanizer), Chandler's sarcasm, Phoebe's general personality.
Finally, it's morning (we had a lot of caffeine) and I need to go to the park to meet with Pax and Lucy (Pax is always loaded with caffeine and Lucy has probably taken a nap on a bench). "This was fun, but I have to meet up with my friends."
"I should get going to," he says, grinning. "I really enjoyed tonight. You're the first girlfriend I've had, you know."
"I'm your girlfriend, then?"
"I hope so."
I grin. "You're my boyfriend then. Anyway, I'll see you sometime. Preferably sooner rather than later." I give him a little kiss on the lips and then I'm in a taxi.
It's morning by the time I reach the park, and I'm all hyped up, ready to tell Pax and Lucy about the best time I've ever had. I even had a speech planned in my head, but it didn't go to plan. Don't forget what they say (who's they anyway? I don't know) - "Always expect the unexpected."
The third chapter is finally out! I was ill for a few days, so I'm sorry about that, but hopefully this is a decent chapter for you.
