She's the Campus Prince novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Keep His Promise

“Yes! Terrific Xander shouted with glee, gripping his phone like it was a trophy

He jumped off the bed, did a string of flashy one-handed flips across the room, and kicked up into a handstand against the wall to strike a pose like he was in some action movie. He looked like pure joy in motion.

Cameron, half–reclined on her bed with a book in hand, glanced over lazily and sneered, “What? You forget to take your medicine?

Xander dropped from the wall, cleared his throat, and tried to tone down his grin

Milena had told him to keep quiet, not let Cameron find out their relationship. He had to keep his promise

Putting on a straight face, Xander said, “I’m not gonna waste time arguing with you. I’m taking a shower?

A minute later, the bathroom was filled with the sound of rushing water and Xander’s happy singing.

Cameron didn’t care what he was so worked up about

She glanced at Bradley’s empty bed beside hers. It was close to midnight, and he still wasn’t back

Where the hell did he go? she thought, a little uneasy.

She considered texting him but then remembered she didn’t have his number. Actually, come to think of it, she didn’t have any of her dorm mates’s number.

With a sigh, she closed her book, tucked it away, pulled the curtains shut around her bed, and lay down to sleep.

The next morning, Cameron woke up at six on the dot just like always.

She pushed the curtain aside, got down from bed, and instinctively glanced at Bradley’s bed. It was still empty. She hadn’t expected him to be gone all night.

Outside the floor–to–ceiling windows, the sky was starting to lighten with the pale blue of dawn.

“Morning, Cameron, what do you wanna eat for breakfast? I can grab something for you. Just meet me at the cafeteria after checking the attendance, Xander said, still half–asleep but perking up the moment he heard Cameron’s footsteps. Cameron rolled her eyes and snapped, “Don’t bother with that. I don’t have a sister.”

Xander blinked, then muttered to himself, ‘So Milena was telling the truth. This guy really doesn’t let her talk to guys. What a fossil

He rolled out of bed and followed Cameron to the sinks. The two of them started brushing their teeth side by side. With a casual air, Xander said, “By the way, asking for your sister’s number yesterday was just an excuse. What I really wanted was to invite you to join the school basketball team.”

Cameron shot him a cold look and replied, “I don’t have time.”

Xander nearly lost it. He really wanted to give Cameron a hard kick. But then he remembered that Cameron was Milena’s brother. He swallowed the urge and let it go.

Elijah also got up. Cameron turned to ask him, “Do you know why Brad didn’t come back last night?”

Elijah shook his head and replied, “He didn’t say anything.”

Though Cameron still felt confused, she nodded slightly.

Xander leaned in with a mischievous grin. “Look at you, Cameron. Why are you so worried about Bradley? Trying to cozy up to him, huh?”
