"I was thinking maybe this one," Nash said, pointing at his really expensive Mac Book.
"Looks fancy," Cam tried saying while biting into his snack, apple bits almost falling out everywhere.
"I like it," I chipped in, staring at the screen.
Nash, Cam, and I are looking at houses in the LA area, maybe Anaheim. It's been going well so far, we've already found three houses in our price range that we like. Wait, make that four.
"So many," Nash laughed, "which one is THE one?"
"I really like that one," I said taking the laptop from Nash and clicking on the tab to my favorite.
"So do I," Cam agreed, still eating his apple.
"Should we get it?" Nash asked, both Cam and I nodding our heads. "Alright, lets do it!"
The house we got was located in LA, and Matt backed out on us officially. Which kinda sucks, but oh well.
I don't know how this whole buying houses thing works, so I let Cam and Nash do all the work while I went to call Lucy.
"Lucyyy, guess what?!" I exclaimed before she even had time to say hello.
"What?" Lucy asked.
"Me, Cam, and Nash found our house today!" I yelled into the phone.
"Cam, Nash, and I, you mean?" She corrected me.
"Not the point," I said.
From then I we continued to talk to about an hour before Nash peeked in my room and called for lunch. Lucy and I hung up on each other and I went into the kitchen.
"Did you guys order something?" I asked, seeing no food on the table.
"Yeah, we got a pizza for us to share. It's just plain cheese though," Nash replied.
"Yeah that's fine," I giggled.
When the pizza got there, we ate, barely any talking. We're all awkward.
"When do we start moving in?" I asked, breaking the silence.
"Not for awhile. We still have a LOT to do, housework and paying and stuff," Nash said.
"Yeah, but I'll tell you when we start. First we have to road trip back, drop the other off back at their own houses, get our stuff, etc," Cam added.
"I've already dealt with the house I'm currently living in," Nash said, cutting off Cam, "But you need to move out of yours."
"That shouldn't be a problem," Cam told Nash, "I've already talked to my mom and sister and they're fine with it."
"I wanna meet your sister!" I randomly blurted out.
"Road trip back with us then," Cam replied with a smirk.
"Yeah! It'll be fun!" Nash said with excitement.
"Oh okay," I laughed, "I'll have to run it by my parents first though."

"Get in the van!" Cam yelled in the pouring rain. I ran, with my hood up, from my house to the van. When I got in, I sat down next to Cam. Nash was driver and Mahogany was co-pilot. I was soaked from just the three seconds it took to run from the house to the van.
"It never rains here," I giggled, squeezing water out of my hair.
"I know," Cam said.
"This van is huge," I changed the subject.
"Technically we can fit one more," Nash said from the front.
I gave them all a smirk, "Let's add Lucy."
"Let's do it," The quite Shawn way in the back said.
Before we knew it, we were at Lucy's house helping her bring her stuff in, trying not to get soaked. She came in the van and moved away from me, up into the back, and sat next to Shawn.
"Someone's got a crush," I smirked.
"Shh!" Shawn shushed me. Lucy blushed.
"Uh, I was talking about Lucy," I started laughing. I may or may not have just hooked those two up.
The whole way up to Anaheim was filled with giggles coming from the backseat. The van was crowded, but it was nice. I was surrounded by all my friends. Which is kinda sad, because only about three of them are really 'close' to me.
I whined to Nash about when we'd get there, cause I'm really excited to see Cam's house. Eventually Nash got annoyed and stopped answering me.
After a long ride, Nash dropped Cam and I off at his house first (since I kept bugging him). Lucy chose to stay with Shawn for a bit, but we decided we'd pick her up after we were ready to go back to my house.
"My mom's not home yet and neither is my sister, but welcome to my humble abode!" Cam exclaimed, opening him front door.
"I love it!" I said back to him, examining the place, "Where's your room?"
Without words, Cam grabbed my hand and led me to his bedroom. We went up the stairs and in through a wooden door, to see his messy but cute room.
"Sorry, it needs cleaning. I wasn't really expecting company when I last left," Cam said, sitting on his bed.
"It's fine, I know," I replied, following him to his bed. I leaned in to kiss him on the cheek, but then he pulling me in for the lips instead.
We kissed-passionately- and the spark I felt when I first kissed him was even stronger now. Cam pulled me in tighter, one hand curled on my shoulder and the other on my cheek. He moved away from my lips and started to my neck/shoulder area.
"I love you," I whispered to Cam.
"I love you too," He whispered back in between kisses.
There were no words after that.
Cam's hands slid under my shirt, placing both of them at my hips. He slowly began to grab the ends of my shirt and bring them up and over my head. He looked at my (almost nonexistent) stomach, followed by my ribs. He looked into my eyes for just a second, and then I knew - he was not judging me. He was not ashamed of me. He took his finger and traced my ribs, slightly tickling. I was not deathly skinny, not anymore, so I did not look like a dead raisin.
I took off his shirt to reveal the abs of Chris Evans. They were really defined. I felt them with my palm, just because I've never though to feel them before.
You probably know what happened next.

"So you're the famous Sierra?" I asked a with a little too much enthusiasm.
"Yes, I am," Cameron's sister said, setting her coat down, "how was the many hours here alone?"
I starting choking on my spit after hearing that, so I motioned towards the kitchen and went to get myself a drink. I could still hear them from the other room.
"Sorry 'bout that," Cam laughed, "she's a little....hype today."
"It's alright. I mean I HAVE lived with you all your life," Sierra laughed back.
I came back with a glass of water, taking a sip every five seconds or so.
"When's mom coming home?" Cam changed the subject.
"Soon, half an hour maybe?" She said back. Cam nodded. "You look kind of sweaty," She continued. I chocked on my water this time.
"I'm a bad person," I mumbled, choking, walking back to the kitchen.
"I'm gonna go help her," Cam laughed again, coming towards me.
"You've never done this before, have you?" Cam asked kinda quietly. I shook my beet-red head. Cam chuckled, patted my back, and left.
"What's for dinner?" I heard him say, probably to Sierra.
"Mom's bringing home tacos, you cool?" Sierra said. Cam didn't say anything back so I assume he nodded or something.
"I'm home!" A feminine voice trailed the rooms of Cam's house. His mom?
"Mom!" Cam yelled, "Come meet Jayde!" Yep. His mom.
"Hi!" I said, walking to his mother, "Thanks for giving birth to Cam!"
Fuck.
"Oh my god," Cam said under his breath, "you're so awkward."
"Oh, no problem!" His mom laughed, setting tacos on the table. Once she got her stuff put away, we sat down at the table and ate.
"I never have family dinners like this," I said, taking a taco.
"Really?" Sierra asked in a surprised tone.
"Really," I replied. Then we began to eat. I didn't like it, the fatty meat and cheese and shit they put in here. I'm not going to be rude, however, so I had to eat it. Cam looked proud whenever I took a bite.
Soon after dinner, Cam sat his mom and sister down to talk about moving. I didn't say much, but I had to be included since I was moving in with him. We talked about when, where, packing, with who, and more. Cam and I decided, while texting Nash, that'd we'd move in as soon as possible. So, after the talk we went upstairs and I helped Cam pack.
