Cameron Adam Hills's Story

"You're not the only curious one." Jasmine pulled at her necklace. "Is there somewhere we could meet?"
________________
Tony placed a hand on her cheek. "To be honest, I don't want to remember who I was before. I love where I am right now." He kissed her once more, this time for longer.

"Then you better dress nicely," was Savaya's only answer. The line went dead. She knew.

Jasmine slipped on a pair of tennis shoes and draped a red scarf around her neck. She was nervous, but she needed to find a few things out for herself. She left a note for her roommate to find before she left on her way to the night club.

Tony's heart was beating fast, but he ignored it. Finally he felt something that was familiar. He didn't want to let her go.
_____________
Cam tied a black tie around his neck. If Savaya wanted him to dress up, fine. he didn't mind it. It was much easier to hide his gun in his dress jacket anyway.

Jasmine took a seat at the bar, looking around nervously.

Tony looked frowned as Maya looked at her phone. "Is something wrong?"

Savaya lived in a large mansion outside of Riverton, a city beside Blueridge. There were many cars in the round about in front of the mansion, probably guests waiting to get inside. There was obviously a party going on. Savaya loved to entertain. The guards at the door didn't question Cam. Instead, one even escorted him upstairs away from the rest of the guests. Savaya probably didn't want their little conversation to reach other's ears, Cam thought to himself.

"369, Madame." The guard said in a loud clear voice.

"He's fine, you may go." Savaya was wearing a long black dress that floated across the ground as she walked towards Cam. He could see her deep red lipstick even though the room was dim. "You wanted to chat, Cameron?"

Jasmine stood up from her place at the bar and followed Angel to her office. Nerves crept up her back like spiders. She bit her lip as she entered the office.

Tony's eyebrows knitted together. "Demon? Do you have to go?" He took her hand, hoping it would persuade her to say no.
_________________________
"Yeah, I wanted to chat. Why the hell is Jazz still alive?"

"By Jazz you mean Jasmine Rivera, the target I gave you three years ago?" She placed a perfectly manicured hand on his chest. Her nails were long and sent chills up his back. "That was staged."

Jasmine sat in the seat in front of the desk. She looked up at Angel, pushing her hair back behind an ear. "What would you like to know?"
_______________
Tony smiled. "Are you sure?" He pulled her closer.
_______________
Cam was silent for me. "Is this some kind of game?" He scoffed.

"Of course not, Cameron." Her red lips pulled into a smile. "You know I don't like games."

Jasmine took a deep breath and looked down at her hands that were folded on her lap. "He's from the town I grew up in. We lived across the street from each other. Although, I didn't meet him until I was nineteen. Anyway... it was Christmas time and my mom and I had fight and he overheard." She looked up Angel. "He wasn't so bad then."

Tony wrapped his arm around Maya, not wanting the night to ever end. He could hear his own heart, crickets, and the sound of distant thunder.

"Go to hell," Cam turned to walk out of the room, but was stopped by a powerful blow to the head. He turned onto his back, groaning as he did.

"Don't forget, I own you," Savaya said, a steady even voice.

Jasmine nodded and stepped out of the room, her head aching with too many memories. Her head was tired and her heart was tired. It's time to go home, she thought to herself.

Tony's phone began buzzing and broke the perfect serenity that enveloped him and Maya. He grunted irritably as he took out his phone. Cam's name showed up on the bright screen. Tony hung it up and pulled Maya closer too him. It wasn't long before the phone began buzzing again. "Seriously?" Tony sighed. He hung up the phone a second time and looked to Maya. "Sorry, he can be... persistent. He's probably drunk and wants to argue about politics." It was no surprise when the phone began ringing again, this time ending in a catchy tone notifying that a voice mail had been left.

Cam walked into Oliver's diner, a small diner located in Blueridge. He sat at a booth and ordered a coffee, waiting patiently for the woman from the phone. If she knew him, it probably wasn't good. He'd be ready when things turned out.

Madisons nerves were eating her alive. She applied her makeup carfully but her red lipstick kept smudging on the side. Would he remember her? She hoped so. She tied the lace on the corset of her black dress and finished applying her makeup. Madison tied a red bow in her white-blonde hair and smiled in the mirror. She looked pretty dam good.
When she walked into the diner she bit her lip. She saw him instantly. Her heart skipped a beat. She almost forgot how handsome he was. She shook the thought out of her head and stepped over to him. "Hi Cam Hills. I'm Madison."

Cam looked up to see a lady dressed like a Gothic vampire. His eyebrows knitted together in confusion, but he didn't question her choice in clothing. "Hi."

She wrapped a piece of hair around her finger and sat down. "I'm not a vampire but thanks for the compliment." She could feel his eyes on her and she knew he noticed how low cut her dress was. "I hope I didn't interrupt anything you had planned."

"Look, Madison, I'm going to be perfectly honest with you. The only reason I came here today was because I was curious how you knew me." He put a hand up to a waitress who walked over to the table and she quickly turned away. "After meeting you here now, I'm afraid you might have the wrong idea about my intentions."

Cam's eyebrows knitted together in confusion. "Hm... you know what Madison?" Cam's eyes opened wider. He shook his head with a little laugh.

"Yes?" This was it! He remembered her. She knew he would. Her heart was pounding fast at the thought of the kiss they had shared.

"I don't remember you. I must have been drunk." He took a sip of his coffee.

Cam was sitting by Jasmine's bedside. "Well... you're not dead," he mumbled under his breath. And of course she didn't respond. He moved to her nightstand. There were a few cards set up on the table and a bouquet of arranged flowers. Cam picked up a card from the table and began reading it when he heard someone behind him.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Koko's voice was low and angry.

"Visiting," Cam answered simply. He set the card back down on the table and faced Koko who had her arms across her chest.

"Oh, hush. I know you don't care about her. What are you doing here?" Koko pressed. When Cam didn't answer right away she threw her hands in the air and ushered him to the door. "Out, I don't want you here. Get out now!"

"Why would I leave when I've only just got here?" Cam asked, a half smile on his face. Koko glared at Cam.

"Who do you think you are? You broke her heart! You killed her!" Koko's voice was wavering.

"No, I didn't actually. If you want to get technical, it was Tony. But I know how you feel about details, Kora."

"You're pathetic," Koko said coldly.

"Yeah... You know... that really hurts my feelings." Cam looked to Jasmine. "I came to see her."

"Why?" Koko asked again. Cam shrugged.

"To make sure she wasn't dead." Koko was silent for a moment. For a moment Cam thought she was going to blow up on him.

"She's pretty close," Koko whispered.

"I... hope I'm not interrupting something," a man's voice came from the open door. Cam looked up and his eyebrows knitted together. "Oh, Cam, nice of you to drop by." James Fox was standing in the doorway, a bouquet in his hand.

"Hi James," Koko said in a small voice.

"What are you doing here?" Cam asked coldly. Fox smiled at this and walked over to Jasmine's bedside.

"To check up on my fiance of course," he said with a smile as he kissed her forehead.

"Oh... alright. Everything okay?" Tony asked, worried.
______________________________
"What?" Cam asked, a smile came over his face. "You're lying."

"No," Fox assured. He lifted up Jasmine's left hand to reveal a white-gold engagement ring. "I was never much of a liar, Cameron. That was... your thing." Cam's smile fell and he glared at Fox. "Oh come on. It isn't like you wanted her anyway. I know all about your little murder fiasco with her."

"I don't know why you think I care," Cam said in a flat voice. Fox shrugged.

"My apologizes. I thought that maybe for a moment I heard your heart beat."

"Okay. Don't forget... This is a hospital. Quiet down!" Koko scolded.

"Lets face it, Cam, she's better off without you. I can keep her safe," Fox touched Jasmine's hand.

"Well, good luck with that." Cam turned and stepped out into the hallway. Tess and Brian were outside talking by an elegant fountain.

"Cam! About time!" Tess laughed when she spotted him. Her face changed when she saw his expression.

"She's engaged?" Cam asked Brian. "You knew?"

"Cam..."

"You knew she was alive... and you knew she was engaged. You didn't even tell me?" Cam continued walking to the elevators. Brian followed close behind.

"Cam, you weren't safe. Jasmine wasn't safe either." Cam turned before entering the elevator. His stare was cold and emotionless.

"When you decide that you want to give a shit about me again, don't bother because when you do... I'm going to blow your fucking brains out." He walked onto the elevator and disappeared.
