Cameron POV
~Edited~

When I got home after we left the hospital I texted Anna. I was serious when I said I was going to ask her out tomorrow, and I already have everything planned.

I'm going to ask her if she wants to go out tomorrow. Hopefully she'll say yes and I can take her somewhere where we will have fun and I'll get to know her even better. I'm planning on asking her out afterward, when we're close to leaving. I'm extremely nervous about the whole thing but I planned every detail, so it should go pretty smoothly and I could end up with a girlfriend.

Hopefully I don't ruin everything. I really enjoy being her friend.

I finally gathered up the courage to pick up my phone and text her about tomorrow.

Hey Anna! ~C
5:32

Hey Cam, what's up? ~A
5:32

Well... I was wondering if you wanted to go somewhere with me tomorrow? ~C
5:33

Somewhere like...? ~A
5:33

Uh... well it's not my house I'll tell you that. ~C
5:33

Are you asking me out on a date right now GB? ~A
5:34

And what if I am... :O ~C
5:34

Lolol. I would go, but I told Tarah I would visit her tomorrow. ~A 
5:35

Next Saturday? ~C
5:35

Tony remember. ~A
5:35

Next Sunday? ~C
5:35

Sure, but you better not try to kill me. My life story isn't going to be on the Investigation Discovery channel because of you. I've seen some scary stuff on there. ~A
5:35

Well that wouldn't be proper date etiquette, now would it? ~C
5:36

I dunno Cam, some people are into weird things... ~A 
5:36

Uhhh... ~C
5:36

So... do I get to know where I'm going to be murdered next week? ~A 
5:38

Uhhh... ~C
5:38

Oh, let me guess... "It's a surprise, surprise" isn't it ~A 
5:38

Am I supposed to get that joke or...? ~C 
5:39

You're telling me you don't know that song? ~A
5:39

Uhm... should I?... ~C
5:39

Successful? By Ariana Grande? Queen Bee? Seriously Cameron? ~A
5:40

Nope, never heard of it before... ~C
5:41

I'm... disappointed... ~A
5:41

But anyways is it a surprise or not? ~A
5:41

Yes Anna, it's a surprise. ~C
5:41

Okay well... can you give me a hint? ~A
5:42

It's on the corner of "I'm Not Telling U" street and "Stop Asking" lane. ~C
5:42

Hmm let me go look that up on my maps and I'll get back to you. ~A
5:42

Yeah... you go do that... ~C
5:43

Hey well I couldn't find any streets by those names, but I did find something on the corner of "U Suck" Parkway and "Just Tell Me" Drive. ~A
5:45

Hmm and what did you find on the corner of those streets? ~C 
5:45

Wherever you're taking me tomorrow. ~A
5:46

And where's that?... ~C
5:46

I dunno, you tell me. ~A
5:46

I dunno either... guess we'll have to wait, won't we. ~C
5:47

You're annoying. >:( ~A
5:47

And you're cute ;) ~C
5:48

Maybe I shouldn't have said that...

Whatever >:( ~A 
5:50

I thought the conversation was over but two minutes later I got a text from Aaron.

So... Anna asked me to ask you where the murder is going to happen tomorrow... Care to explain? ~AA
5:52

Oh god, that's what she said? I'm taking her out on a date tomorrow and she's convinced I'm gonna kill her. ~C
5:52

Woww lolll. Well at least you're finally making moves, but I'm guessing you don't want her to know where you guys are going. ~AA
5:53

Yep! I'm moving up in this world Double A. And you would be correct about that. I'm keeping it a surprise. ~C 
5:53

Interesting... okay I'll tell her you didn't give me any information. ~AA
5:54

Where are you taking her though... I'm curious. ~AA 
5:54

You won't have to lie to her Aaron because I'm not telling you. I can't risk it. ~C
5:55

What!? Don't you trust me C? ~AA
5:55

Not with this. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go yell at your sister for using you to get to me. ~C
5:55

Alright alright. Good luck tomorrow C. I'm counting on you. ~AA
5:56

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

Really Anna? ~C
5:59

Oh hi Cameron! How's it going? ~A
5:59

It was going good until you told your brother I was going to murder you. ~C
6:00

What are you talking about Cameron? I've been in my room since we got to the hospital. How could I have possibly told Aaron anything? ~A
6:00

Texting is a thing you know, we're doing it right now... ~C
6:01

Oh fine whatever! Can you at least tell me how to dress so I'm not over or underdressed. ~A
6:01

You can dress casually, we're not going anywhere too fancy. ~C
6:01

Well thanks for that I guess... ~A
6:02

Wait... what about Tony? I don't wanna... anger him... just yet. ~C
6:02

Don't worry, he doesn't come around on Sundays. I dunno if it's a religious thing or what, but I've never seen him around on a Sunday. ~A 
6:02

You have to think about all these things all the time, don't you? ~C
6:03

Yeah... you get used to it. After a while it just becomes a chore and you just want it to be over. ~A
6:03

Well of course you want it to be over, there's a man watching your every move. ~C
6:03

Yeah... ~A
6:03

How do you even do it? There are days when it doesn't even seem like you're trying to leave at a certain time or do things on certain days. ~C
6:04

I've learned his schedule, I've learned when he is and when he isn't around. I've memorized it all. It's kind of like instinct for me now and I can plan ahead without having to think about it or stress about it too much. ~A
6:05

That... that's not good Anna... ~C
6:05

It is what it is. There's not much I can really do about it. I just have to live with it until college. ~A
6:05

Don't worry Anna, I promise I'm going to find a way to get him in jail. ~C
6:06

Don't make promises you can't keep Cameron.~A
6:06

You don't know that I can't do it. I brought down a bunch of millionaires who were selling weed for years. ~C
6:06

Yeah Cameron, well that was different. He's one guy that you know nothing about. Why do you even care so much? He's not hurting me right now and it isn't that big of a deal. ~A
6:07

Okay one, it is a big deal and two, I wanna be able to take you out and hang out with you any day of the week at any time ;) ~C
6:07

For... what is this the third time? You aren't as hot as you think you are Cam. I'm sorry to break it to ya bud. ~A
6:07

Keep telling yourself that babe ;) ~C
6:08

Wow! When did Cameron Black become so cocky? ~A
6:08

It's all jokes Anna, it's all jokes. ~C
6:08

Okay well, I'm gonna go get a snack, I'll talk to you later? ~A
6:09

Talk to you later BG :) ~C 
6:09

That night, I thought of all the different things we could do on our little date. I went to sleep more excited than I was when she said yes.

Now I just have to figure out how I'm gonna ask her out without chickening out.
