Since that day that Morgan and Cameron spoke in Cameron’s house, Cameron had felt proud of himself again. The silver-haired teen had started hanging out with him even if he isn’t really hanging out. When he’s drawing, the other teen would sit beside him just watch him quietly.
“Hey, Morgan!” Cameron called him once.
He looked at his friend. Yeah, Cam is his friend now. “What?”
“Can you listen to my song?” he asked hopefully.
“No” Morgan answered coldly.
Cam pouted. “Please?”
“No”
“Pretty please?”
“The physical characteristic of a please wouldn’t change my mind”
“You heard that from that movie ‘Despicable Me’.” Cam said, still pouting.
Morgan rolled his eyes. Damn this guy.
“Please, Morgan?”
“Fine” Morgan said.
“Yay!” Cam immediately pulled his guitar out of its case. He sang his original song.
How could this be?
How can I feel this way?
I’ve promised myself before not to fall in love
Yet you made me break it to pieces
Morgan stared at Cam while the other played his guitar while singing the song beautifully.
I thought this feeling would go away
But you made it go deeper anyway
I want to regret the time where I first saw you
But I couldn’t put myself in doing so
Morgan felt a huge palm squeeze his heart tightly as he listened to the lyrics of the song. Is this for that guy he fell in love with? He didn’t know why but he felt bitter at that realization.
I wanna show you who I am
I didn’t know you would understand
I didn’t know you’d accept me
But you left me be
“Hey, what do you think? It’s not finished yet” Cam suddenly asked.
“Stupid” Morgan muttered under his breath.
“Not great, huh?”
“It’s not” Morgan said coldly then turned his back to Cam.
Cam bowed his head as he stared at his guitar.
“Come on, let’s have something to eat.” Morgan said.
Cam just stared at the back of his friend. He sighed before putting his guitar in its case and followed the red-head guy.
“It’s good but you should improve it.” Morgan said quietly that Cam almost didn’t hear it.
“Are you sure?” he asked excitedly.
“Stupid” Morgan said again.
Cam’s smile came back. “Okay, that’s a start.” he said as he hopped beside his best friend.
Cameron kept blabbering while he and Morgan walked home. Even if his friend barely paid attention to him, he just kept talking and talking until Morgan suddenly stopped a few yards away from his apartment. Cam looked at his friend. “Is there any problem, Morgan?” he asked.
Morgan kept his gaze to the door of his apartment.
Cam followed Morgan’s gaze and saw an older guy standing in front of Morgan’s apartment. He was about to ask Morgan if he knew the man when Morgan suddenly spoke.
“Don’t leave me, Cam.” the red-head guy said quietly.
Cam looked at Morgan. “Is there any problem?”
“Just promise me you won’t leave me.” Morgan said as he looked straight into Cam’s eyes as if begging to get the answer he wanted.
“I promise I won’t leave you, Morgan.” Cam promised as he held Morgan’s gaze.
They started walking towards Morgan’s apartment. The man standing by the door looked at them and a happy look showed on his face the second he saw them.
“Morgan!” the older guy exclaimed as he embraced the red-head teen.
Cam observed the man. He was a carbon copy of Morgan except for the hair and eye color. The older guy has blonde hair and blue eyes. He guessed it was Morgan’s dad but by Morgan’s reaction, he doesn’t seem to be happy about this.
“What are you doing here, Dexter?” Morgan asked coldly.
“What else? Of course, visiting you, baby brother!” the blonde guy said warmly.
“Baby brother?!” Cameron couldn’t stop that shocked expression to go out of his mouth.
The two guys in front of him looked at him in unison.
“Oh, who’s this?” the guy who Morgan called Dexter asked. “Is he your boy friend?”
Cam’s face turned totally red by that statement while Morgan stayed stoic.
“It’s none of your business, Dexter. Now, Leave.” Morgan said without any expression.
“Oh, come on now, Bro, don’t be so rude. Dad will definitely get angry once he sees you like this.”
“Shut up! My whole family is already dead!” Morgan’s eyes burned in anger.
“Oh, grow up, brother! Just because the family disowned you doesn’t mean that we’re dead!”
Cameron was shocked by this. Morgan was disowned by his family? Why? These questions bugged into his mind.
“Go away, Dexter! I don’t want you near me ever again!” Morgan was hysterical.
“Fine, now, baby brother!” Dexter said with a mocking laugh. “I’ll leave but always remember, once a Wilson, always a Wilson.”
“As if I care!”
Dexter left the two of them. Morgan was shaking wildly and Cameron didn’t know what to do to calm his friend.
“Morg—” he said.
“Let’s get inside.” Morgan said a little too shaken.
“O-okay.”
Morgan opened the door and went inside; Cam following closely to him. They sat on the sofa in the living room.
“Are you okay?” Cam asked when Morgan buried his face into his palm.
Morgan didn’t answer. He just stayed in that position while his whole body shook wildly.
Cam stood up. “I’ll get you a glass of water.”
Morgan suddenly stood up and embraced the other teen. “You promised you wouldn’t leave Me.” he said in a very soft but panicking voice.
“I wouldn’t. I’ll just get you a glass of water to calm you down.” Cam said as he caressed Morgan’s back in hypnotic circles.
Morgan shook his head. “I don’t need any water.” he said and tightened his hold of his friend.
“But…” Cameron started to panic too. What if Morgan has a break down? What will he do then?
“Don’t leave me!” Morgan said in a shaking voice.
Cameron sighed. “Fine, I won’t.” he said as he pulled back. He looked into his friend’s eyes. “I will never leave you, Morgan. You should always remember that.”
Morgan nodded.
They sat back into the sofa. Cameron was shocked when Morgan leaned his body into the other teens but recovered immediately. He smoothed the red-head’s hair while murmuring some assurances that he will never leave the other teen until the red-head finally fell into a very deep sleep.
“I promise I will never leave you, Morgan.” Cam said as he drifted off to sleep too.
