Break Away - A Cam and Bonnie Story


Part one- Part Favors






“You fucking did what!”
People rushing by, eyes darting towards them, announcements being called over the loud speaker. Cameron had made an hour and a half drive to the airport in forty minutes. Dumped his getaway car in a random parking lot, bought tickets for the next plane leaving out, confirmed their living arrangements for the next few days and just before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his lovely wife who did nothing but come down from her high while he stressed his ass off, had left her passport.
“…I…I…don…don’t know..” Falling to her knees as Cameron hovered over her. His eyes glared with anger, clenching his jaw. Bonnie falling to the floor caused more of a scene than he would have liked while they stood in the security line but he didn’t care. Words couldn’t describe how irate he was. All she had to do was transfer the money in the offshore account that he provided and bring her fucking passport. Not to mention stay clean from coke but that was a minor setback that would have to be dealt with later.
“Excuse me, but you two will have to step to the side. You are holding up the line.” A security guard that looked too frail to actually secure the area approached the two. Everyone, everyone in the close vicinity watched on as the two made the biggest scene they had saw so early on in their day.
Not wanting to draw further attention, Cameron forcibly grabbed his wife’s arm and yanked her to her feet.
“Come on Bonnie.” Angrily Cam demanded. Bonnie’s body moved limp like a rag doll as she followed Cameron’s suit out of the airport. Too scared to push him any further, Bonnie remained silent as Cameron lead them around the airport parking lot walking in circles.
He was frustrated, confused, excited and lost. After all these years of living way below means he was finally headed to the life he was meant for, the life that was stolen from him. This little hiccup was a minor setback but nothing was going to stop him from living his dreams, nothing at all.
Bonnie, his dear wife, finally gave up their aimless journey and sat on the ground. Still attached to Cam’s arm, she gave it a tug for him to sit next to him in between two parked cars. Her eyes said it all, she was sorry. He wanted to yell at her some more but simply he couldn’t resist the pitiful look on her face. It wasn’t her fault that she forgot her passport, it was her addiction’s.
“Baby…I’m so sorry.” Twenty minutes of stillness and Bonnie spoke first. All Cam could do was nod his head. The anger he had towards Bonnie subsided, his mind was now on plan C. If they couldn’t make it out of town soon enough, they would hide out in the surrounding area and then take a boat from the docks. CASH was sure to notice their absence and most likely knew they stole his money already.
 His minions were probably out in the area searching for them right now and CASH was on the phone making calls on how to get his money back and track them down. The money wasn’t Cam’s concern though, the money was now transferred into a foreign account and then distributed into multiple different accounts that frequently changed account numbers so they could not be traced. Once the two reached their final destination, a surprise for Bonnie, they would cash out their accounts, change their identities and live the rest of their life ten million dollars richer. Everything was set, all they had to do was make it out of town alive.
“Cam!” Bonnie shook him to disturb his train of thought.
“Not now Bonnie, I’m trying to figure out a way to get us out of here.”
“But I have a plan! We can fly on one of those private planes.”
Cam rolled his eyes in annoyance, the effects of the cocaine must have lingered to give her such a boost in confidence.
“You lost your passport remember? No one is going to fly us anywhere without it, plus we don’t have the money yet to pay them.”
It was now her time to be annoyed, Bonnie rose to her feet and attempted to pull Cameron up as well but he remained on the ground.
“I have money!” Reaching in her bag to take out the stack of money she took from CASH’s office, making effort to keep the bag of cocaine inside her bag hidden from Cameron seeing.
“We could hire a plane to Miami and then a boat to Cuba or something.” Once Cam saw the large stack of money in Bonnie’s hand, he jumped to his feet and embraced her.
“My love, you are so good for me. I love you.” His accent rang out, Bonnie ignored and proceed to walk towards the private planes.
He should have never doubted her, Bonnie had more tricks up her sleeve than Cam could count. But only he could bring the bad side out of her. A match made in Heaven. Bonnie became tickled with the plan she thought of, just wait until he found out.
To be continued…. Part Three
