The Stare That Started It All

Chapter 2- The Aftermath

A/N: this chapter was inspired by listening to River's Theme from Dr Who season 6 which I also do not own.

Disclaimer: Own nothing expect the plot of this story, but a girl can dream right.

It had been a week since 'the incident', as John liked to call it, with Cameron and he hadn't stopped thinking about what happened. It was so distracting that his mom even noticed, so much so that he had been deflecting her questions the whole time. For the past week his mom had been asking if he was ok and his only answer was "yeah mom, why wouldn't I be" but he wasn't fine because the only thing he could think about was the words Cameron had left him with a week before "staring intently at a boy you attracted emotionally to" kept repeating themselves in head even when he was asleep so much so that he'd started having dreams that would have his mother castrate him and destroy Cameron. But try as he might to resolve this or even talk to Cameron about it and she ignored which John really didn't like so tonight whether she wanted to or not they were going to talk and sort this out for his sanities sake.

Later that night after the adults were asleep

John crept across the hall towards Cameron's room hoping he'd find her there so he wouldn't have to risk his mother hearing him sneak downstairs to find his cyborg protector. But walking into her room he found nothing, "stupid John," he thought "why would she be in her room she doesn't need to sleep", so he quietly left her room and walked down the stairs and quietly searched for the cyborg girl he was looking for. "Cameron" he whispered loud enough for her to hear but not to wake the other occupants in the house. However she did not stir or show any sign of hearing him even though he knew she had, "Cameron, come on I know you hear me, we need to talk about the other day, you know we do." Still nothing, "Cameron, seriously, answer me, we have to talk, come on before my mom wakes up and finds us here." He tried, hoping she would respond. "You should be asleep John." Was her reply a moment later to which John smirked and said "I would be if I could, but I can't because I need to talk to you, now." "Then talk John" came her reply as she sat down on the couch. "What you said last week about being 'emotionally attracted' to me, did you mean it, and don't lie or try to fool me I need the truth, Cameron." He said trying to calm his slightly rapid heartbeat. " Yes john it's true" she answered and his heart started beating slightly faster, he had to be sure so he asked "all of it, Cameron", "yes John all of it" was her only answer and then he sat next to her and took her hand. "Cameron, do you remember what I told you about staring?" she looked straight into his eyes as he started talking, " Yes John I remember", "staring doesn't show us how one feels but it does get our attention", and then he leaned in and did something he had been dreaming of for the entire week, he kissed her with a passion only known between them and they leaned back on the couch arms folding themselves around each other before he reluctantly pulled away because he heard a slight cough. As John turned his head the voice said "Erhm what do you two think you're doing" and john saw the one person he had been dreading standing there in front of them, HIS MOTHER.

A/N: thanks for the reviews they were a big help and really appreciated. Sorry for long wait last week of college before I leave and things are hectic but after then there will be more chapters more often. Like the last chapter this one wrote itself mostly. I recommend listening to River's theme when you start reading the conversation between John and Cameron because I was listening to when I wrote it and it kind of creates the atmosphere for the section. Enjoy and I will have the next chapter up asap.
