Chapter Five

Monroe

It’s hard for me to fall asleep with everything going on in my head. I should be worrying about Brent, and I am, but he’s not at the forefront of my mind. What’s really keeping me awake is what Cam said to me before leaving my house earlier today. I finally fall asleep only to wake from a nightmare where Brent was in my house standing over me, watching me sleep. Freaked out, I sit up in bed and look around my room, praying to God I don’t find him there. When he isn’t anywhere in sight, I get out of bed and go to the window to see if he’s outside. I pull my curtains over and see an older model truck parked in front of my house. My heart stops in my chest, worrying it’s Brent. Maybe it wasn’t a nightmare at all.

As I’m staring at the truck, I realize there’s a large decal of a sheriff’s badge with HFPD written below it on a blue line, on the back window. I’ve seen these on police vehicles and some non-police vehicles around town since I’ve been back in Harper Falls.

I release the breath I’ve been holding and stand at the window for a while staring down at the truck, wondering if it’s Cam in there. As my eyes adjust to the dark, I’m able to make out the silhouette of a man. I watch him reach for something, and when a light illuminates his face, I'm happy to see that it’s Cam sitting there. I’m about to walk away from the window when I notice him look up at me and wave. Grinning like a fool, I shake my head and pull the curtain back in place.

Feeling more at ease with Cam keeping watch out there, I’m able to fall asleep a lot easier than before. He might have been a jerk to me in school, but he’s not an evil jerk. He’s out there to protect me, and I trust that he’ll do just that. When I wake up to get ready for work, a smile forms on my face when I take a peek and see that he’s still out there. A giddiness like I haven’t felt since I was a teenager starts to build inside me. I know I’m being ridiculous, but when I walk out to my car and see Cam standing beside it looking exhausted, my heart skips a beat.

“Did you sleep at all last night?” I ask, smiling up at him.

He shrugs his shoulders. “I’ll be fine.” He tells me as if he isn’t affected by the lack of sleep.

We both stare at each other for a long moment before I look away, feeling self-conscious, and unsure about what’s happening here. Unlocking my vehicle, I open the door then turn to face Cam. “Thank you for coming back last night.”

He steps forward and reaches out his hand to hold my chin between his two fingers. “Roe, I will always come back.” He says before sliding his thumb against the edge of my bottom lip.
