I hate meet and greets.

Why? Oh, I don't know. I see Cam kissing girls and calling them beautiful for like an hour.

See this is why I like being somewhere else during Magcon.

F them all, I'm going to see some family.

My Aunt Autumn and her son, Jake, live in an apartment near Central Park. I take a taxi over there. I'm surprised I still remember her floor and apartment number.

I ring the doorbell.

I see an eye in the peephole. The door bursts open not even a second later.

I am strangled in a hug by a tall, sand colored hair boy.

"AVA!" Jake shouts.

"Woah, you grew like two feet since last year!" I laugh, hugging him back.

"Jake, who are you talking to at the- AVA!" Aunt Autumn joins the hug.

"Ha, I missed you guys!" I say.

I hear a dog bark.

"Dole!" I say, running into their apartment to hug Dole the Great Dane. "I missed you, Dole!" I say.

"So, Aves, what are you doing here in NY?" Jake asks.

"Magcon," I reply.

My phone starts to vibrate and I see Cam's picture light up.

"Hey, Cami," I say.

"WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU?!" Cam shouts.

I yank my phone away from my ear. "Lord, Cameron, use your inside voice." I laugh.

"Answer my question!" Cam demands.

Jake grabs my phone and puts it on speaker. "Gee, Cam, that's one way to treat a girl!"

"Ava, is that a boy?! WHO ARE YOU?!" Cam shouts.

"Gosh, Cam, calm down. It's just my cousin, Jake!" I assure him.

"WHERE ARE YOU?!" He demands again.

"I'm in their apartment." I ask Aunt Autumn if I can give him her address. She nods her head. I give Cam the address and hang up.

"Is he a significant other?" Jake chuckles.

I laugh. "Yeah."

"He's a keeper, Ava, demanding your location and all." Aunt Autumn laughs.

"You'll meet him in a moment." I laugh.

*Ten minutes later*

I open the door to an anxious Cameron.

He doesn't even wait to be invited in, he just runs in and squeezes all the air out of my lungs in a hug.

"Cam-Can't breathe," I say.

"Crap, sorry!" He lets go of me and kisses my cheek. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine now." I smirk.

"Ew, gross, don't flirt in front of me," Jake says, walking over. "Hey, I'm Jake, Ava's cousin." He shakes hands with Cam.

"I'm Cameron, Ava's boyfriend." He smiles cheekily.

"Smooth, Cam." I roll my eyes.

Cam chuckles and turns to my Aunt. "You must be Jake's sister!"

Okay, to be honest, my aunt looks nothing under 45. She could not be Jake's sister, but I know Cam was just being nice.

"Oh! You're too sweet, Cameron! I'm Ava's Aunt. Call me Autumn!" She says, probably flattered my Cam.
