A/N: To answer some questions, 1. Cameron didn't see the RAT on the wall of the actual rat in Johnny's cell because I assumed Johnny cleaned it up, as it seemed to upset him, he wouldn't want to always be looking at it.
2. Sorry for the wrong wording in the last chapter, a couple people brought it to my attention that the DNA of twins is nearly identical so I guess I shouldn't have said DNA and just said fingerprints.
3. I know nothing about the prison system / prison schedule so sorry in advance if things seem strange or Cameron seems OOC. (And I realize Cameron seemed OOC in the past 2 chapters, I just thought anyone who finds themselves in prison would be so scared they wouldn't be their confident, joking normal self.)
4. As usual, apologies for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I proof-read it, but I'm not perfect
Season 2: Chapter 3
After Kay left Cameron followed the guard out of the meeting room. He saw on the clock in the hall it was 8:45PM and remembered that Johnny said lights went off at 9. The guard told Cameron to grab his toothbrush then walked him down to the bathrooms. Cameron was told to be quick, as everyone had already done their night time bathroom activities while Cameron was talking with Kay. Cameron brushed his teeth with Johnny's toothbrush and toothpaste, went to the bathroom, then washed his hands.
When he was done, he followed the guard back to his cell, trying his best to keep his head down so he wouldn't attract the attention of the other prisoners.
Back in his cell, Cameron looked on the shelf for anything resembling pajamas, but only saw another tan uniform, white shirt and underwear. Cameron took off the tan shirt and pants and put them at the end of the narrow bed, deciding to sleep in his underwear and white shirt.
A guard stood in the middle of the hallway and shouted, "9PM, lights off!".
The lights in every cell went off, leaving only a dull shine from the hallway lights.
Cameron sighed and climbed into the bed. The top sheet was very thin, and the mattress was so hard, it was basically like lying on a wood bench. And certain parts of the bedspread had unidentifiable brown and grey stains which made Cameron's stomach churn. He closed his eyes and tried to think.
"Man, I don't want to be a prisoner" Cameron thought. "I've only been in here a few hours, and am already anticipating when Kay is gonna come back and get me out. Johnny was in here for over a year, and trusted me to get him out. And I kept letting him down".
Cameron was so annoyed at himself. He kept thinking back about what happened at the auction house. He so badly wanted that flash drive that would exonerate Johnny, but he just couldn't bring himself to betray Kay. He wished he would have just stolen MW's flash drive so Johnny could be free but he wouldn't have had to betray Kay.
After a lot of tossing and turning on the uncomfortable prison mattress, Cameron eventually dozed off.

Cameron had no clue what time it was, but he saw guards unlocking the cells and leading the prisoners to the communal shower and bathroom area. Cameron pulled on the other tan uniform and grabbed Johnny's toothbrush and toothpaste and followed. He used the bathroom and brushed his teeth. Cameron didn't want to go to the showers with the other inmates, so he had to settle for washing his arms and face in the sink.
As people were finishing washing up, they began to line up by the door. Cameron was careful to stay in the middle of the pack and follow everyone else.
The guards led them to what he presumed was the dining hall, with old metal tables and a long line for the food. The other inmates seemed to know their spots and the routine. Cameron drifted back and let other people get in the breakfast line before him. He needed to watch how they got their food, then hopefully pick an empty table.
When it was Cameron's turn to pick up a silver tray, a prisoner in a hairnet and apron slopped some watery oatmeal on his plate, and another prisoner put a scoop of canned peaches. They looked nasty, but Cameron was starving. He grabbed his utensils and some napkins, and made his way to a half empty table in the back, sitting as far away from the other people as he could.
He began to eat his breakfast, forcing himself to swallow without coughing. The oatmeal was basically just water with some overcooked oats, and the peaches had a weird tang to them.
A little bit later, the guards came and took everyone back to their cell, they stayed there until lunch, had lunch then went back to their cells. Cameron kept his head down and didn't talk to the other prisoners, and they didn't engage with him.
A/N Okay I'm already bored of writing a day in prison so I'm speeding things up.
A little while after lunch Cameron was laying on the bed reading one of the nature magazines. He was startled by the guard gruffly telling him to get up. He wondered what part of the prison routine it was time for now, until he realized that none of the prisoners were getting out of their cells. Then he saw Kay.
"Kay!" Cameron exclaimed. "Did the labs come back?" He asked eagerly.
"Yep," Kay said. "I already showed them to the DA and the prison warden. As you are not Johnathan Black you have no place in this prison."
As the guard was unlocking Cameron's cell, he could see the other prisoners looking at them very confused, muttering that they didn't know that was Black's twin, how could they have not know, then some seemed to become angry, as the realized Johnathan had escaped while they were still in jail.
"C'mon, let's get out of here," Kay said, as the jeers from the prisoners seemed to grow louder.
Kay lead Cameron back to the meeting room where he couldn't help but hug her.
"Thank you Kay. I wasn't in there for very long, but I did not like it."
"Of course Cameron. You know I'll always be there to help you," Kay said.
She handed him a bag with some clothes. "I hope it's ok, I stopped by the archive and picked up some of your clothes. I can't image you would have wanted to stay in a prisoner's uniform for very long."
Cameron grinned and started taking the stuff out of the bag. He started pulling off his uniform as Kay was explaining to him what she said to the warden and DA to get out. Kay asked him if he wanted her to leave while he changed and he said matter of factly, "We're both adults here, nothing to hide."
Kay kept talking to try to avoid looking at Cameron's body. She noticed he still had a faint bruise over his heart from where Isaac's assassin had tried to kill him. And the actual bullet graze on his right arm looked red and irritated from the cheap material of prison clothes. Those injuries pulled at her heart, vowing she had to do a better job of keeping Cameron sae.
Cameron left his prison clothes on the table and straightened out his favorite black hoodie.
"Now let's get back to business," he said.
The End
A/N I think that's it. I didn't have any plan to make this a super long fanfic, I was just interested in what happened in the seconds after the finale, so I wrote it. Not the most exciting final chapter, but I didn't want Cam to get hurt in prison, and just needed to wrap it up. Hope everyone enjoyed my version of Deception Season 2, since I really don't think ABC will give us one. :(
