Chapter 140: Perfect Timing

"Can I come to your place?" She finally said her amazing idea.

My eyes widened and my eyebrows arched, did I hear it right? 

"What?"

I couldn't believe she was asking me that, didn't she know that would potentially cause trouble between Cameron and me?

"Send me your address. I need to see you. Please."

I shook my head as if she could see me through my phone.

"I am... very busy at the moment." I made up the most ridiculous excuse that came to my mind and obviously she didn't buy it. 

I heard a loud scoff coming from the phone.

"Come on Lily. I have to see you and then I won't bother you anymore. I promise."

I took a long breath. 

"Fine," I said.

I told her my address and then she hung off.

I sat on the sofa and slapped my forehead, why did I let that woman convince me? What if she comes here and murders me? Or kidnap me to force me to tell her my secrets and how I made Cameron fall?

Maybe I had seen too many serial killers documentaries. But I still needed to be careful, she didn't sound like a woman who could move on and give up on her ideas so easily.

"Stop being worried about it, you made the bed now sleep in it. " I told myself.

I stood up and proceeded to clean up the floor and the dust on the furniture. 

When she rang the doorbell I opened the gate and mentally prepared myself for whatever was going to happen. 

I heard her footsteps approaching the door, the clicking of her high heels on the asphalt, and the brushing of the gold chain against her jacket. 

My hand fled on the door's handle, the cold surface made me hold my breath pushing me to open the door right away.

"Hello." My voice high peaked revealing all the discomfort I managed to control in the call.

She smiled, flashing me with her perfectly bright smile. Her perfectly styled hair as if she just came out from the hairstylist.

Her long painted nails wich matched purposely with her dress.

She was very beautiful, she looked even more stunning than the first time I saw her. She seemed to have dressed up purposely for the occasion to see me or maybe I was just overthinking it and she looked that stunning daily.

"Come in." I fakest a smile. "Why did you want to visit me?"

The sooner I understood the reason why she came the sooner she could walk both out of my life and out of my house forever.

"Well.." She glanced at my house, "you have a beautiful house."

"Thank you... now tell me..." I hissed, I didn't want her to stay here much longer. Her presence there was making me feel more nervous and uneasy as if I was under judgment.

"Hmm sure, alright. Maybe if we bond and get close I will stop hating you so much and will find a reason why Cameron loves you beside your pretty face."

I chuckled at her statement, thinking it was a joke but when her face remained serious I understood she wasn't joking. 

"I don't think it's a good idea," I said. "Cameron wouldn't like that and I doubt we can ever be friends if we are both interested in the same man. I told you the address because I still want you to move on and you to get over it."

"Alright," she let her hands fall loose along her side, then she scoffed reassigned at the thought I wouldn't let her overcome my limits. Even if she had good intentions, I highly doubted being friends with me would ever help her to fully move on Cameron. On the contrary, I guessed she would still see me as a potential enemy. 

I regretted having invited her there in the first place, now I had to find a way to indulge her to leave as soon as possible so that she wouldn't be my problem anymore.

If I helped her move on Cameron, I would finally stop having her in the middle of my affairs and she will find obsession over different subjects than me.

"Have you ever been loved by someone you didn't return the feelings for?" I asked.

She nodded, "yes once," she twitched her eyebrow upwards, questionably. Wondering where I was getting at.

"Do you remember the reason why you didn't love him back?" I asked, hinting at a smile.

Her lips' corners moved of a inch up in a hint of a smile but then relaxed, probably finally figuring out what I was getting at with my question.

"No, there just wasn't a spark there."

I nodded, glad to hear what I wanted to hear, "maybe that's the same thing that happened to Cameron have you ever thought about that?"

She finally smiled, her nose wrinkled with her shy smile, but that sudden change lasted only a few seconds before she changed her mood again and she grew hesitant.

She shook her head, "with Cameron is different. He had other girlfriends but his heart didn't even move with any of them, nor me. whereas when he is with you his heart seems to be affected by a storm." She still sounded much rancorous and I felt the last nerves of patience being hit, it was hard to maintain calm but I had to do it to save a future with Cameron without her getting in the middle.

I took an inner deep breath, "maybe back then he wasn't in a good place in his life and he didn't feel ready to love yet. Madison, there are many other more reasons which you can't control, timing is also important. What I am trying to say is that I don't have anything more than you or any other woman he dated before me. I guess we just happened to meet and fall in love in perfect timing when both of us needed the other person to rise. Back when we had met I had broken up with my boyfriend and the last thing I wanted was to jump right away into a new relationship but here I am.. There are things you can't control, which just happen because your heart is already set to take a particular path."
