know your not telling me anything but i'm sure you will tell Cam.'
It was true. Eventhough I was crying and it really looked like something is really wrong, I couldn't tell Josh. Mainly because I don't know how that will make this situation better and I didn't tell because he might get angry at Conor when it is clearly my fault. But theres a question I wanted to ask him.
'Josh.' I said while he parked the car near Cams house.
'Yeah.' He said looking at me.
'What do you think about Conor?' I said looking at him for any sign of emotions. Josh looked at me and smiled his warm smile.
'Well, Conor is not a guy you should trust. I mean, I've heard millions of rumors about him but you don't know if they're true or not. But the way Conor looks at you, its weird.'
'Wierd?' I said.
'Yeah, he looks at you like he never has loved anyone. He looks at you like he is missing out in something. I don't know how to explain but he looks at you like he loves you. He wants you Ruby.'
I looked away. When my mind said all these things, I didn't believe it. But now when Josh says it, its sounds so real. It makes you wonder is it really is true? We got out of the car and made it to the door. Josh rang the doorbell. He gave me a 'you'll be okay' smile. It helps.
Cam opened up wearing blue jeans with a white plain top. On top of that she wore a cardigan that looks so warm. She was smiling when she saw us.
'Hey guys.' She hugged me tight and kissed Josh on the cheek. For a minute, I forgot about that they were together.
We went into her living room.
'Wheres your parents?' I said sitting down on the sofa.
'Oh, they've gone to my aunts house.' She said while sitting in the middle of me and Josh.
'Well-'
'Wait!' She shouted while running out of the room. Me and Josh shared a look. Cam came back with a blanket and 3 cups of hot chocolate.
She gave a cup to me and and Josh and wrapped us with a blanket.
'Are you done?' Josh said. Cam sat down between us. We were all snuggled up in a blanket. It was so cosy that I couldn't help but smile.
'Okay, lets start from the front.' Cam looked at me.
'Cam, forget it.' I said. I wasn't in the mood to talk about it.
'Look Josh told me what happened, you have to tell me the rest of it.' She said looking at me and Josh.
I sighed. 'Okay fine.' I told Josh and Cam everything. From what I felt to why I did't want Conor. They listened carefully and nodded at the times when I told them to agree with me. After I was done, they looked at eachother for a long time like they were planning on what they are going to do.
'Ruby, you love him don't you?' Cam said.
A tear fell from my eye. 'Yes, I love him to bits.' I said shakily.
'Ruby, I think you should go for it. I mean he loves you and you loves him.' Josh said.
'Guys, you don't understand. My mum will get angry.' I said kind of angrily.
'Rubes, you can't pretend to hate him for the rest of your life. And I'm sure your mother will understand.' Cam said.
I knew they were right. My mum would understand but she would never be able to trust Conor. I sighed.
'Thanks guys your the best.'
'We are.' Cam said. We all laughed. 'Group hug!' Cam said. Before me and Josh could refuse, Cam pulled us together that we were hugging.
'I love you guys.' I said. Whatever happens, I know that my friends will be with me the whole way.
Chapter 17

After I told Cam and Josh about everything they told me to tell my mum and tell her how I feel about Conor. Josh took me home.
I went into the house and was welcomed by the rich smell of rice. I smiled to myself. I took a deep breath. I hope my mum won't freak out from all these things. I came into the kitchen to see my mum putting the radio on. She had flour on her face and her apron was full of different foods.
'Hey Mum, whats happening here?' I said sitting down on the stool.
'Hey darling.' Mum smiled at me. 'Do you know Auntie Pam?' I nodded. I have met Auntie Pam and I think she is great. She isn't mum's sister but they act like sisters. When I was born, Mum's bestie was Pam and they used to do everything together. And she loves me like a real aunt.
'Well, her son is coming to stay with us for a month because he is doing a course in your school.' I screamed with happiness. I can't believe it! Sam is coming to stay. Okay, Sam is the coolest guy ever. I actually had a crush on him when were were small because he was so handsome. But he was gay. But he doesn't act like it. Sam is like a brother to me and helped me through when my dad went. I haven't seen him in years.
My mum put her hands to her ears. 'For goodness sake Ruby, don't break the windows with your screams!'
'Sorry mum, I'm just so excited! When is he coming?' I said happily.
'Tomorrow.' She said trying to light the oven.
'Do you need help Mum?' I said looking at her struggling.
'No darling, I'm nearly finished and when have I ever left you near a oven. You'll burn yourself in a second.' I laughed and said to her that I'm going upstairs. I went upstairs and closed the door. When i was about to sit on the bed, I froze.
AAAHHH! I forgot to tell her about me and Conor. She looked to happy. I couldn't just make her worried again. I sighed and went onto the computer to do some online shopping. After an hour, I felt sleepy so I went into my sleeping position. Ping! The was my phone. I picked it up to see a message from Conor. It said: Hey Ruby what are you up to? I smiled at his words. I kind of felt sorry for him because he wasn't doing all the slang words like BRB and LOL, it just made me think that without his richness, he wouldn't be able to survive in school. I texted back: Nothin, just sleepin peacefully until someone texted me. I sended and after 1 minute, Conor texted back saying: Sorry, I'm just really bored.
I can't believe this! He even put apostrophe in his text! I nearly fell off the bed with laughter.
When I was about to text back, Conor phoned. Its better if he phones. Better for everyone I thought.
'Heyy Ruby, What you doing?' Conor said sounding really happy.
'And why do you care?' I said playfully.
'Because I'm your boyfriend and I should care?' He said.
'How can you be my boyfriend if we haven't even been on a date?'
'Ruby? Are you asking me out?' He said. I laughed.
'I'm sure if you can call me your girlfriend, I can ask for a date.' I said twirling my hair. I can't believe I am actually flirting. I have never flirted. Never.
'Ruby, I love it when you laugh.' He whispered. I smiled and bit my lip. I was actually blushing. Its good that he couldn't see me or he would have made fun of me and thats the last thing I want.
'Thats-' I was about to talk on the phone when my mum knocked on the door.
'Conor, I got to go, we will talk later okay?'
'But-' Conor was about to say.
'Byee.' I whispered before cutting off.
I quickly opened the door. Mum was standing there. 'How long does it take to open the door eh?' She said while sitting on my bed.
I raised my eyebrow. 'Sorry, I was just busy watching television, so whats up?' I said sitting next to Mum.
'Well, tomorrow I have to go to a business course abroad. So-'
'But Mum, your only an engineer, this all is just optional.'
'I know darling, buts its better if I learn more so I can be in a higher position. You know what I mean?'
'Yeah, so when you coming back?' I said.
'After a week but Sam will babysit you and I don't want you getting into trouble in school, got it?'
I nodded. 'Thats great sweetie, I won't be here in the morning but Sam will come okay?'
I nodded again. 'Oh and sweetie, I've told Sam about all your-'
'Mum, please I'm 16. I'll be fine.' I said.
'Oh look at my baby growing up so fast.' She said like she was talking to a baby. She hugged me tight and then kissed me on the forehead.
'Bye honey.' She said.
'Bye Mum.' I said while she went out of my bedroom. I sighed. I really should have told my mum about me and Conor but for some reason I didn't want her to stop being happy. I went into my sleeping position and slept like a baby.

Chapter 18

I woke up with the worst feeling left. My head felt heavy and I had a massive flue.
'Great day to be ill Ruby' I mumbled to myself while getting out of bed. I looked on my mobile that I left on my dressing table.
12 missed calls? I checked who it was all from and it was of course Conor. Why did he phone me so much times? I started coughing and went
downstairs to get a glass of water. I can't believe this! My mum left all the dishes here from her cooking last night for me to clean up. I groaned and sat down to drink some water. I quickly went upstairs to do my normal bathroom routine and then got dressed. I wasn't going to go anywhere today because I'm ill so all I wore was a black thick top and jeans. I wore a massive sweater that my mm knitted me and put that on. I started coughing again. I felt so ill. And its worse when theres no one here that you can moan about it. I went downstaires and ate a
