2.Trust - The Plan by Summer Blue (beach read txt) 📕

said biting my lip.
'So I better be going. Its really nice to meet you Ruby.' He said before giving me a cute smile and going.
Conor got up and shut the door. 'Finally hes gone. Do you know how annoying he is?'
I smiled. 'I ask you the same question.' I coughed.
'Hey you okay?' Conor said.
'Yeah, I'm fine. Just feel kind of dizzy.' I said. My head started spinning a bit.
Conor quickly got up from my bed and felt my head. His face was so close to mine. 'You've got a bit of a tempreture.'
'I'm fine.' I mumbled.
'No your not. Ruby. I'll make you some soup okay? It helped before.' He said helping me pack my books in the bag.
'But what about your tutoring.' I said. I coughed again. I really don't feel well.
'You could tutor me next time. Right now you need to get home.'
Conor, I don't feel well.' I whined sinking down on the sofa. I really didnt. My head hurt.
'Come here Ruby.' He hugged me tight.
'I'm sorry I was mean to you.' I whispered.
'Its okay. I'm sorry I was angry at you.' Then I froze. What the biscuit was I doing? Im here sitting with my ex. This bad. This is really bad.
I quickly took my bag and got up. The dizziness felt weird.
'Hey, whats up?' Conor said putting his hand on my shoulder.
'Conor, I'm your ex.' I said flatly.
'So?'
'So? What do you mean so? Exes don't hug and say sorry and make each other soup.' I said taking his hand off my shoulder.
'But Ruby-'
'We used to be together. Used to. Not anymore!'I snapped. His face hardened and his eyes were filled with sorrow and emptiness. And all I could do was stand there and make it worser. 'Do you hear me?'
I was about to go when Conor grabbed my arm. 'Your lying. The way you still look at me...... Why are you lying Ruby? Do you hate me that much?'
'Yes I do. I do. Because you hurt me Conor.' I whispered.
'I didn't mean to. It wasn't even my fault.'
'Yeah, of course it wasn't your fault. Your perfect, aren't you Conor? I'm the one who made the mistakes. I'm the one who cheated on you. Isn't that right, Conor?' I said looking at him. He avoided eye contact. His face filled with anger. He didn't say anything because he either knew he did it or he was too tired of this fighting.
I quickly ran out of the room and made my way home. Tears falling from my eyes. I thought everything was going to be okay. I never knew I would make it
Chapter 8: Cam's P.O.V.

'Okay class, you could go.' Mr Thompson said when the bell rang. Me and and Josh got up and walked out of class.
'Wonder what Ruby's doing.' Josh said next to me. Ruby must be still in Conor's house. I texted her but she never answered. I really hoped she has strenghth. She really loved Conor. She might have hided it from everyone but not from me. You should see her expression when Conor walks into the room. Me and Josh went to our lockers to put out stuff away.
'I hope Ruby could do this. Its not everyday that you have to tutor an ex.' I said to Josh.
'Yeah. It must be difficult for her.'
'Your right.'
'Yeah, so any plans?' Josh said
'Nah, I normally go to Ruby's house but I don't think she'll be back yet.'
'Yeah. Wanna come to my place?' Josh said giving me wink.
I blushed and smiled. 'Josh, your such a....'
Josh put his arms around me. 'Im such a what?'
'Ermmm, a idiot.' I said giving him a kiss on the cheek.
'Or really?' He said.
But before I could answer, his lips crashed to mine. Josh makes me feel amazing. Im soo happy I hooked up with him.

We went to Josh's house and were now sitting in his room.
'I hope Ruby's okay.' I said biting my lip. I was about to cry. She is all alone in some guys house trying not to fall for him. Don't tell Josh, but Conor is hot and i'm sure Ruby will take it hard when she sees his face. I mean, who wouldn't? She just got out of the relationship and its like life wants her to suffer more for something she didn't do.
'Come here.' Josh hugged me tight. I put my head on his shoulder. 'What if they make fun of her?' I cried. 'They are rich and popular, and they could do ANYTHING to her.'
Josh laughed. 'You know its Ruby right? Ruby Williams. The girl who once punched a janitor just because he accidentally hit her with a brush.'
I smiled. I wiped my tears away and said, 'Yeah, your right. Ruby wouldn't let anything bad happen to herself.'
I heard a beep. Even Josh's phone had a message.
'Ruby!' Me and Josh shouted getting our phones out. We gave her messages saying good luck, she might be replying from there. Why is she texting when she can phone?
We looked at the message and exchanged looks.
'This isn't Ruby.' Josh said.
'Yeah, what does it say?'
It said:
MEET ME AT THE CENTRAL HOTEL IF YOU WANT RUBY
I gasped. They've kidnapped her. They are so DEAD. How can they do this? My eyes filled with tears.
'We have to go there now.' I whispered, too surprised to speak.
We quickly got our coats and headed to Central Hotel.

Centrel Hotel is a massive place. It has 2 swimming pools, 1 casino, 4 game areas and its own amusement park!
So why would kidnappers or someone we know use this place. I've seen a lot of broke down haunted garages that they could have used. But good that they used this place. Its always busy and filled with security.
Josh parked in the massive car park. I was about to get out of the car, but Josh stopped me.
'Your not going.' He said looking into my eyes. He was scared.
'Are you kidding me? Of course I'm coming, shes my best friend.'
'But what if something bad happens to you.' He put his hand on my cheek. 'I'll never forgive myself if something happens Cam. You're everything to me.'
I took his hand. 'Nothing will happen.' I kissed him on the cheek. We got out of the car. Instead of going, Josh went to the boot of the car and opened it up.
'What are you doing?' I said curiously.
'If we're going to save Ruby, we rather do it properly.' He said getting out 2 baseball bats. I smiled and took one from his hand.
We went to the front entrance and looked around. Shit, the people didn't tell us what room we are in.
I looked at Josh. His face showed that he was thinking the same thing.
Josh was about to say something when 2 ladies smiled at us. 'You Ruby friends?' She said, I didnt understand what she said first. But when she repeated it, I instantly smiled back and nodded. She told us to follow her and we did. I walked beside her. 'So do you know Ruby? Do you know if she is okay? Is she Okay? Is she hurt? Is these people trying to kill her?' The ladies looked at my strangely and started laughing like I said the funniest thing. 'Why are you laughing?' I said curiously. But then something struck me and I was in tears in minutes. 'Somethings happened to her, right? I told her she shouldn't have gone there. You know what kind of people they are-' Josh took my hand.
'Its going to be okay, Cam.' The ladies kept on walking. We went past millions of doors. Where are they taking us? I looked at Josh. He was still holding my hand, giving me encouraging smiles. I wiped my tears away.
15 minutes went by. How long can it take to get to a room. And why the hell didn't we take the elevator?
Finally, the ladies stopped and said this was the room. Before I could say something, they walked away like it was a normal day.
Okay, here we go. I was about to turn the handle to go inside but Josh stopped me.
'Are we actually going to do this?' He said. He sounded like me for some reason. It was even laughable.
'But if something happens to you-'
'Nothing will.' I said.
We opened the door and screamed 'WHERES RUBY?!' I had my eyes closed. Too scared to see what really might be there.
I kept them closed until Josh said I could open them. If I see something bad, it ruins my life. I heard some music playing and a bit of laughing.
I hope we're not in the wrong place.
The music stopped and I somehow could feel that everyone in the room was staring at us. My bat was close to my body so I could use it at anytime.
'Errmm, Cam.' I heard Josh say awkwardly. OMG! We are in the wrong room.
I opened my eyes to see the most un expected thing. There was bright room with 2 chandeliars. There was about 4 people there who I know very well.
There were all sitting on chairs. There was nothing in the room but a round table and chairs around it. And on those chairs were Rick, Matt, Cassie, Sam and guess who?
Ruby's Mum! Mrs Williams were looking at me like I was an alien.
'Hey guys!' Cassie said smiling as usual. 'Awesome entrance.'
'But... But-'I couldn't speak. Whats happening? Wheres Ruby?
She came and hugged me. 'You okay? You're shaking.'
I couldn't speak. Josh said, 'Cassie, whats going on? You gave me this message and we thought something happened to Ruby.'
'What do you mean? Ruby's fine. I gave the message and it said that if you wanted Ruby and Conor to be together, and come here.' Cassie said worried. I breathed in and out. I am so mad right now but the important thing is that Ruby is fine.
'But you gave us this message saying.. well look yourself.' I gave her my phone and showed her the message.
She laughed. 'I can't believe this! I gave you half of that message. It was supposed to say Come to Central Hotel if you want Ruby AND Conor to be together. Silly me.' But then she stopped smiling and hugged me again. 'Im so sorry, Cam. I must have got you worried. A strange message saying this could get anyone worried.'
'I'm fine. Atleast shes okay.' I said hugging her back. She was sorry and that was fine.
'Come on take a seat.' Cassie said.
Me and Josh sat down giving eachother 'thank god' smiles.
'Hey guys.' I said smiling at everyone. Rick smiled back and Matt gave a lazy smile. He looked like he was bored. Mrs Williams and Sam said hi.
'Right lets get started.'
'No, lets not.' Sam said angrily. 'I don't understand whats going on here. Your really thinking of getting Ruby and Conor together?'
'Yeah, Isn't it great?!' Cassie screamed happily.
No one said anything. Wow, this is really awkward.
'Darling, this sounds great but Ruby is very stubborn. She'll never go back to Conor.' Mrs Williams said.
'Yeah, after what Conor did, I don't think anyone would.' Sam mumbled angrily. Why was he in such a bad mood?
'What do you mean? Conor didn't do anything.' Rick said defensively.
'Of course he did. I'm sure you were there with him.' Josh said annoyed.
'But he was
