Damien walked into the coffee shop. It was time he spoke to Camille. He hadn't sought her out in a while and he figured that now was as good a time as any. It was important that he do this, he had to own up to what he had done and he really hoped she was willing to be his friend. Ordering a black coffee, he then looked around and saw her in the shop. Once he picked up his coffee, he walked over to her and cleared his throat a bit, "hey Camille." |

Camille had gotten some warning from Audrey that Damien would soon approach her. She was fine with that. She knew Audrey wouldn't have suggested it, if he didn't get it. "Hello, Damien." |

"So I've heard," Camille sipped her tea. "Sure." |

"Thanks," Damien said and took a seat, taking a big swig of his coffee. "How have you been?" He remembered what Kayla said about not just diving into what he wanted to say, he remembered she said to engage in conversation and to ask people about themselves first. |

"I'm fine. Busy with the show. We've extended our run. I saw Luke at the show with a beautiful blonde girl. Kayla told me it was a vampire named Hazel who just did it to get under Ben's skin. Apparently, Kayla beat her up in the bathroom. I'm glad to have her around," she said, before drinking more of her tea. "But you don't really wanna hear about all that. It's nice of you to ask. Different of you. But you said you had some things to say, maybe you best say them," her voice was soft, she didn't want to come off harsh. |

Damien nodded his head, "Kayla's a great friend to have around." He said before he took another big swig of his coffee. He should have known she didn't want to have small talk, but it did hurt him a bit. Nonetheless he nodded and took a unneeded breath before he spoke once more. "I've been meeting with Audrey quite a bit lately and have been coming to terms with everything that I've done. The biggest thing that I have realized is what I made you go through, everything that I did to you. I should not have treated you like that, I shouldn't have forced myself on you, it was extremely disrespectful and horrible. I shouldn't have been such a stalker, it was completely wrong and not okay by any means. I should have been a good brother to Ben and not try to steal you from him and I can't believe how oblivious I was to what I was doing. I should have respected you as a person, and not look at you as some object to be won. I don't expect you to forgive me for everything, how could you? I was a monster, I just really hope that we can be friends someday." It was out now and he really hoped that she would understand. |

"She seems like it," Camille nodded. She listened and was surprised at how thought out this apology was. It wasn't like the others where he was constantly trying to apologize so he could win her over or only apologized for some of it. He understood now. She sighed heavily. "But I can forgive you, Damien. I know I can because you understand. But, I honestly don't think we can be friends. Ben and I had a friendship that we could go back to, but you and I---we've only had this tumultuous relationship--if you can call it that and I just I don't know, Damien." |

When she said she could forgive him he felt a huge wave of relief rush over him, because he honestly thought she wouldn't. When she said she couldn't be friends with him because of the way things started with them and that there was never a friendship between them to begin with it, that rush of relief instantly disappeared and was replaced with a sense of disappointment and anger, more toward himself then her. He didn't look at her for a long while, he just swirled the cup of coffee he held in his hands trying to process what he wanted to say exactly, "Is that a 'I don't know but we can try someday' or a 'I don't know and I don't want to find out'?" |

Camille sighed, slightly annoyed. Even though he was apologizing, she felt like he was pressuring her like he always did. "I don't want to be cruel, but I honestly can't see us being friends. I've been thinking about approaching Luke and seeing if we can get back together and one of his biggest problems with you was the fact that I still had you in my life, but for no apparent reason. And I think he's right. Damien, we fight every time we talk. There is no peace between us. We've never had it and I can't just say we'll be friends because I literally don't know what that looks like." |

Damien was trying really hard not to get angry or upset like he had in the past. He took a sip of his coffee, before he looked at her, it was clear he was hurting after hearing that. He honestly believed they could be friends, maybe not now but later but he wasn't about to pressure her. His jaw clicked for a moment while he sat there before he prepared himself to leave, "Then I guess this is goodbye. If you honestly believe we are not capable of being friends then I won't stick around," he stood up and picked up his coffee. "Being cruel would have been better. Like ripping off a bandage." |

Camille scoffed and rolled her eyes. "See, Damien. That's exactly why we can't be friends. You say you don't expect me to forgive you, but you did if you thought we could be friends. You can apologize, but the moment we're not going to be friends, you can't take it like an adult. Because you can't have your way. I'm not going to be cruel to you because that's not who I am. I've done nothing wrong. I'm tired of giving you control. I'm not going to do it anymore." |

Damien just laughed dryly, "I was going to walk away, Camille. I was going to leave you alone, but I make one small comment and suddenly I am not taking it like an adult. How is an adult supposed to take it Camille? Why don't you enlighten me on how I am supposed to take this? You're wrong Camille, we can't be friends because of me. We can't be friends because of you. We can't be friends because despite of everything, despite everything I have done or will do, you will always find something I've done or said to criticize or ridicule me," he tossed his cup into the garbage can that was across the shop and then looked at her. "You may be tired of giving me control, but I am tired of every single detail of my life being nit-picked as if I was some animal in a cage." |

"You're not. Ben could let me go, Damien. He knew that we'd never get back to how we were and he accepted that. He didn't make any snide comments or anything. That's how an adult acts," Camille replied smoothly. She shook her head. "Yes, it's all my fault because I won't be friends with a man that stalked and assaulted me. Way to victim blame, Damien. Just because I forgive you doesn't mean I forget what you did. You should be happy that I can even do that. Many other girls would have just filed a restraining order." She scoffed. "Right. I'm nit-picking by taking control of my life and who I want in it. Not my fault you didn't make the cut. You're not really making the best case for yourself. You were on your way out, so I suggest you go." |

"Snide comments are my specialty, without them I wouldn't be me. I changed who I was for you once, I'm not about to do it again," he said. He wasn't going to start with her. He wasn't about to undo all the good work he had done with Audrey all because of one female. He turned and left without a goodbye. Good-byes were for friends. |
