2.Trust - The Plan by Summer Blue (best classic books of all time txt) 📖

kitchen. My jaw dropped to the ground.
I was wearing my pyjamas next to me ex! Thats not a good sign in a relationship. I've been reading this book about how to get over someone. And one thing they said was that you should never look weak. But me with my unicorn pyjamas are really not helping.
'What- What are you doing here?' I said. The last time I saw him was in the tutoring. And that didn't go well at all. Seeing him here just makes it twice as awkward.
'I could ask the same question. What are you doing here when you should be on that bus?' He said, naturally.
I can't believe this. This guy right here, is telling me where I should be. In my own house! 'I 'SHOULD' not do anything. I just want to enjoy breakfast without
random people telling me where I should go.' I stomped my feet to the table opposite him and made a sandwich.
'So your going to miss a great trip just because of me?' Conor said. I know I shouldn't say this but he looked amazing. He had a grey skinny shirt with black trousers. His hair was all over the place but still he looked amazing.
'Well? Are you not going because of me?' He said. I looked down. What am I thinking? Him and me? We're nothing but exs to eachother. Nothing more.
'No.' I said finally. 'Im not going because of me.' I mumbled. I can't trust myself. What if I go back together with him? Will that be okay?
Right now, seeing him with that cute puzzled face, I would do anything to be with him. But I know that it isn't possible. I broke him and he broke me. I guess we're even.
'And what does that mean?' He said coming closer to me. I went back, remembering the dream I had of him.
'Look, Conor. Why do you want me to go?' I said looking into the fridge again.
'Of course I don't want you to go.' I looked at him. It hurt my heart when he said that. He saw me and changed his sentence. 'I mean, It'll be good if you came because the person
who really wants you to come is Cassie. She planned this for weeks and dragged us two. So your not the only victim here.'
I sighed. 'Why does Cassie want me to go?'
He looked at me. 'Don't know. But come. She really wants you to come. And she's going back to scotland in a few days...'
'What? She's going Scotland? Will she come back?' I said. I know that me and Cassie haven't spent a lot of time together but for some reason, I feel really close to her. And her leaving and me not doing anything about it is kind of mean.
'I don't know when she will be coming back. She's married and it isn't easy getting settled there when people know your 19 and married.' He said. There was something in his eyes that he wanted to tell me but he didn't.
'I guess I should go..' I mumbled. If this makes Cassie happy, then I will have to try my best to stay single till I return.
'Okay, I'll see you on the bus.' He said. He was about to go but then he turned to me. 'I'm sorry about the tutoring. I shouldn't have-'
'No, its not your fault. I was too mean. I should thank you for helping me. Thanks.' I said, giving him a smile. And I was rewarded by his smile.
'So are we friends?' Conor said. The question got my unalarmed and I banged my head on the fridge accidentally.
'Ruby, you okay?' He said. I looked up to see him looking down at me. He was so close with me that our noses were about to touch. And then I felt it. The feeling that I was longing to feel. I can't believe it. I'm... I'm in love. And Its not the same feeling. Its more intimate. Like, I feel so strong with him. I looked down.
'Sorry, I'll tell them your coming.' And with that, Conor ran out the house. Just when i thought it wasn't going to be that awkward, it does.
And just when I thought, the feelings would stop, they start up again. I sighed.
Chapter 12: Cam's P.O.V

I sat with Cassie. 'You sure that Ruby would come?' I said. She nodded. I never knew this plan would work. But it kind of did. I smiled happily.
'I just hope Conor can make her come. Miss Williams says she is really stobborn.' Cassie said. I looked at her. She looked really stressed. Eventhough she was Conor's sister, She still looked like someone else.
'You really love Conor, don't you?' I said.
'Yep. Hes my little brother. Since Dad is not looking after him, I should.' She said, looking through the window. I bit my lip.
We waited for 5 minutes. Cassie was walking up and down the bus with frustration. And then, finally, Ruby came.
She had a sun dress on that stopped to her knees and she had her hair in a pony. I smiled. Everyone cheered with happiness. Except for Conor ofcourse. But I couldn't help but notice a smile on the egde of his lips.
'Hey.' Ruby said to Cassie and me.
'Ruby! Sit here.' Seth said. He pointed at the seat next to him. He had a massive smile on his face.
Ruby smiled and sat down. I bit my lip. Ruby only smiles like that when she is excited about something. Why is she so excited to sit with Seth?
Cassie stood up and looked at everyone. 'Right! Theres some rules I need to say-'
Everyone groaned.
'What's the point? The camp is just an hour away.' Matt said.
'Yeah.' Rick said. Cassie sighed and sat down.
'Boys eh?' She said, before getting water out of her bag. I heard Ruby giggling at the back. I looked around to see her talking with Seth. This is not good.
What if she likes him? It will ruin this whole plan for Conor and Ruby to be together. I looked at Conor.
He looked bored.
Matt put some music on the loudest volume.
Everyone laughed. They were all in their own conversation. Sam was talking to Josh. Rick was laughing with Conor and Matt. And well, Ruby was listening to music with Seth.
Good. This is a good chance for me to find out about this Seth guy.
'Cassie.' I said.
'Yeah.' She looked at me.
'Who is Seth?' I said, trying not to shout because of the music.
Rick and Matt were off their seats and chasing eachother now.
'Seth is our cousin. He's staying in our house for a while. Why?' She said before getting something to eat.
'What if he, you know, ruins the plan?' I went closer to her, making sure that Ruby and Seth don't here from the back. 'He seems pretty attracted to her.'
Cassie nodded. 'We'll just have to keep them two away from eachother as soon as possible.'
We both shook hands and smiled.

Chapter 13 : Ruby's P.O.V

I looked through the window. How long is this going to take?
'Cassie!' Rick and Matt shouted at the same time. 'We're hungry!'
Cassie sighed. 'You guys ate like 5 sandwiches at home.'
'But still, I'm really hungry.' Rick said. They both looked at Cassie with their puppy eyes.
'Fine! Your last crisps and thats all. I'm saving these for Ruby.' Cassie said.
She pulled out a suitcase from under her seat. Everyone looked at her.
I laughed. 'Cassie, we're just going for one night. Whats with the suitcase?'
She looked at me and smiled. 'I need to feed all of you since none of you guys bought food.'
Everyone nodded with agreement.
'Wait, I've got gum. Doesn't that count?' Conor said.
'No way. Gum is not something to eat.'I said.
'But it still has a taste.' Conor said, defending himself.
'Still, it doesn't count.'
'It does!'
'Does not!'
Everyone stared at us. I quickly noticed the situation. 2 ex boyfriend and girlfriend fighting over a trivial matter which involves gum. Nice job Ruby.
I quickly looked out the windows, embarrased with what was going on. I put my earphones in and listened to some random music that comes on.

Chapter 14

Finally we stopped at a little building. It was very small with one floor. I thought there was only one room in this but theres actually two rooms.
'What is this place?' Sam said.
Cassie smiled next to me. 'Its Gem's house.'
'Huh?' Nearly everyone said. Even me. What was she talking about? And who's Gem?
'Me and Edward bought it when we were 15.' Cassie went inside and opened the door. It was beautiful inside. There was decoration everywhere. And it didnt look like there were just two rooms.
'Really? Thats so romantic!' Cam squealed.
Cassie laughed. 'Yeah, I guess it is. When you find someone so incredible, you could do anything to just be with them. Even buying a house.' The way she said that made me realise how much she misses Edward, her husband.

Me and Conor looked at eachother and then quickly turned away. I don't know why I looked at him when Cassie mentioned love. I didn't mean to.
We put our bags aside and went to the big field near the house.
'The Gem is beautiful!' Cam shouted. She looked at me. 'Right?'
I nodded.
We all sat outside on the grass. The sun shining in the clear sky.
'So what shall we do?' Rick said.
'I know! Lets play truth and dare.'
Everyone (except for Conor and me) nodded.

'Lets just get some rest.' Conor. He was sitting next to Cassie and was giving her the 'dont do this' look. But she completely ignored it. I turned to Cam and did the same. She was ignoring me too.
'Come on, Conor. Why ruin all the fun? Lets just play.' Rick said.
'Yeah, I
