Promises

Chapter21

New guy at top 😍

Natalie's POV:

"NATALIE WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" Taylor yells at me.

I just stare at Lexi who's passes out on the floor.

Before I knew it, I felt someone slap me.

It hurt like hell.

"Ahh." I wince in pain.

I feel tears start to blur my vision as I turn to the person who slapped me.

"Tay-Taylor y-you slapped me." I sob.

He stands there in shock. "Nat-Natalie,  I'm so sorry." He apologizes with sadness in his eyes.

"What's going on here?" Cameron and Matt ask while walking in.

"Natalie!!" Matthew screams running over to me checking my cheek.

"Why is it red?Who did it?" He asks worried.

"Natalie oh my." Cameron starts panicking.

"I- I punched Lexi, and I hit my face on the wall." I lie.

I look back at Taylor who's just confused.

"Natalie what the heck" Cameron says worried.

"I'll help Lexi." Matts says walking out.

"Natalie we need to have a talk." Cameron says full of anger.

I nod my head, still holding my check.

We walk outside.

"Natalie whats happening? You've changed. It's not the same anymore." He sighs sitting down on the cement stairs.

I hold back the tears. "Promises." I whimper.

He looks at me confused. I shake my head and tell him everything, everything, not even changing a word.

He sat there shocked. I think he's more shocked about the whole sex thing, but he sighs instead of yelling at me.

He surprises me with a hug.

"Why aren't you yelling at me?" I ask not hugging him back.

He pulls away and looks up at the sky. "Natalie, I'm going to be honest with you." He says looking at me.

I nod my head and he looks back at the sky.

"Well first, I'm just disappointed."

I sigh.

Not again.

"And I just hate seeing you hurt. I'm just happy you haven't cut yourself, and Natalie. You need to get your shit together. I've also have went through times like this, but Natalie there needs to be changes. You need to start getting your crap back together because you look like shit all confused." He says honestly.

Owh. That hurt, but the truth hurts.

Also not the first time I have heard, 'get your shit together.'

So I just nod and take everything in.

He's right, I need to get my shit together.

"Thank you Cam." I weakly smile at him.

He gives me one in return and I get up and walk back inside.

"Natalie what happen?" Nayeli asks.

I shake my head." I don't want to talk about it, ask someone else." I say annoyed.

She nods her head and the walks away. I huff and make my way to the restroom.
