        *UNIVERSITY - 9:36am*
You finished your finals, and you knew you rock it, now you were a graduated woman, a psychologist.
You couldn't wait to see what the future was holding for you. You left the class with your phone on your hands, when you decided to text Timothée, you wanted to see him before your trip to Switzerland.
"Hey Tim, let's have lunch together today!"
You sent and walked out of the building, Cameron was waiting for you as usual. He was reading a book and you sat by his side on the stairs.
You: hello - you smiled and he looked at you, taking his glasses out.
Cameron: how was it?! Your test?! - he was anxious to hear your answer and you laughed, it was cute
You: I'm not sure yet, the results will come out after 3pm...but I think I did well - you smiled and he hugged you
Cameron: yay that's amazing! I'm so happy for you Y/n! I'll have to make an appointment with you Ms Psychologist - he laughed
You: you don't need one Cam - you laughed and looked at the sky, the campus, the students walking around there
Cameron: what are you thinking about? - he bit the point of his glasses and frowned
You: I think I'll miss this place...- you said looking at the horizon- don't get me wrong, I won't miss the tests, the nights up doing homework, the stress or anything...but I'll miss my friends, this building itself. It was kind of my second house for years. And now I'm officially leaving it. I'm a grown up now - you laughed but you had tears in your eyes - oh I'm so silly!
Cameron: no you're not - he smiled and swiped a tear away from your face - you're just nostalgic
You: hmm look who's the psychologist now -  you laughed and he stood up with a smile, holding out his hand for you. You took it and stood up too
Cameron: I'm just your friend - he smiled - so were are we going now? Back home?
You: hmmm no, I told a friend that I want to have lunch with him today, but since it's too early I thought we could go the arcade... - you smiled
Cameron: the arcade?! Really?! - he said all excited and you nodded smiling - being your bodyguard is a way more fun than being Tom's! - he said and you laughed
You: alright silly, let's go have some fun before you get fired - you laughed and you two got in the car.

Going to the arcade was the best idea you could've had. Cameron looked like a little kid, you two played in almost every machine there. In one of the machines Cameron won a teddy bear, that was almost your size, and he gave it to you.
Cameron: you gotta name him Dallas! He'll be the coolest bear in the forest - he said and you laughed
After a while playing and laughing you two decided to sit at the table to rest. He bought you some cotton candy and now you two where just relaxing and chatting with each other.
Cameron: this is so fun! I forgot the last time I had such a great time like this - he smiled
You: being Tom's bodyguard keeps you busy? - you asked while eating the candy
Cameron: yeah...let's say it's not so fun to be his bodyguard...
You: Cameron...you're my friend right? - he nodded - can I ask you something? - he nodded once more - what's Tom hiding?
Cameron: I don't know what you're talking  about Y/n... - he looked away
You: well, I bet you do! You're his bodyguard and friend since ever. I bet you know a lot of things...listen, I'm living with him now, and I'm in this mess, that I don't even know what it is, because no one tells me the truth, and I can feel it. I just want to know what is it, because that's part of my life now...
Cameron: you like him right? - he looked at you and you nodded. Cameron took a deep breath - Y/n he's not a bad guy...trust me
You: he's not only a business man, is he? - Cameron shook his head - what's his secret job Cameron?
Cameron: I'm sorry Y/n...I can't say it - he looked down - Years ago, I was just a poor young boy. My mother was sick, dying, and I never met my father. I was desperate. My mother was all I had. Thomas offered me this job, and in exchange he would help me to take care of my family. To pay for my mother's hospital bills. And I took the opportunity, Tom became a friend of mine. And I'm loyal to him...for more that I like you, and that you're my friend too, I made him a promise...just trust me that he's not the bad guy
You: I know you're only trying to help, but this only makes me feel more scared - you said and he laughed placing one hand on your shoulder - does he ever talk about me?
Cameron: yes, he does, sometimes - he smiled - you intrigue him...I think he's really liking you. I never saw him with a girl like this before. He only had one night stands...
You: was Barbara one of those girls?
Cameron: Barbara? - he was surprised - how do you know her? - you shrugged and he laughed - alright, yeah I think so. But it was years ago, I guess he was on high school or something...it seems like she wanted to date him
You: yeah I know that story...
Cameron: then why you asked me? - he laughed
You: I just wanted to confirm it - you laughed - I never had a boyfriend in my entire life, I felt like no one was worthy of my attention, but there's something about Tom...that makes me curious, makes me want to know him more and more...but at the same time I'm scared, because I know his historical with girls
Cameron: I understand that...but as I said...I never saw him like this before, when he talks about you he has a smile on his face...
You: thank you Cameron - you smiled - I think I needed that
Cameron: you're welcome - he said and looked at his wristwatch - well, I think we should go if ou want to have lunch with that friend of yours
You: alright - you said taking the Teddy Bear from the chair - let's go Dallas!
