Something Different

AUTHORS NOTE: R&R

"Come on Gallagher Girl," Zach said pulling my arm. It wasn't playful, it was serious.

"No!" I yelled, but no one else could hear me.

"We have to get out of here," he pulled my arm again, "we have to move."

"There's nothing going on. Its not a test, there is not threat the only reason you want me to go with you is because Josh is here."

"Let's just go," he put his arm around my waist making me weak at the knees and I couldn't help but follow.

"Cammie!" I heard the voice from the crowd, Zach started walking faster. "Cammie!" Someone grabbed my arm forcing me to turn around. Zach did too, not moving from my side.

"Hey, Josh," I hesitated.

"Zach right?" He looked at Zach who just nodded. I could tell he was angry, but it wasn't all about him, he needed to start listening to me.

"Well, we where just leaving," it was too awkward standing there with both of them having a stare down. I didn't wait for his answer, I just walked away, Zach hesitated then followed.

"What was that?" he asked following me.

"What was what?"

"The flirting," he cut in front of me and caused me to stop.

"Flirting? I wasn't flirting, the only thing I said was 'hi.'"

"Well," he looked right into my eyes "he was flirting." I pushed through the crowd going around him. Was he serious? Josh wasn't flirting, we barely said two words to each other.

"Cammie," he chased after me.

"You know what Zach, this is crazy. He wasn't flirting, nor was I. Why are you so jealous of him?"

"I am not jealous."

"Then stop acting like it," suddenly I had a feeling. I was being watched, or Zach was either way the guy in the blue baseball hat was following us. "Zach," I whispered but I didn't have to stop.

"I know."

There was a scream, and then everything happened fast. Some girl was running four masked men chasing her. I didn't have much time to react, because that girl was Bex.

"Bex," I screamed chasing after her, but I was caught at the arm, I could see Zach fighting against two of the men at the same time. I jumped using the mans arm to hold me up, my heel kicking him in the face. He yelped and I fell to the ground, hooking my foot around the back of his knee and pushing forward so he fell to the ground, but he wasn't about go give up. He grabbed my foot and threw me into the woods, my face smashing against a tree trunk. I could feel blood seeping down my forehead.

"Cammie," it was Zach's voice, but he must have been fighting the men still because I was then grabbed by the arm and thrown back into the street. I heard the snap in from my leg before I felt it. I couldn't see, the blood was on my face and it was completely black outside. I screamed.

The next thing I knew I was being lifted into the air, I braced myself to be thrown again. I couldn't believe that I had been so weak that I could fight back, that I had embarrassed myself in front of Zach like that.

"Cammie," I could feel fingers bushing the hair out of the blood still poring out of the gash on my head.

"I'm sorry," I whispered. Then everything faded out.

"Hey," the voice murmured. I opened my eyes, to find I was in the back of a moving car.

"Zach," I sat up only to be pushed back down by multiple hands, "where am I?"

"Stay still," another voice answered it was Mr. Soloman.

"Done," another voice answered. I realized that there was gauze on my head "don't move very much, you're going to be a little weak for a while."

"We're here," the driver said and the side door opened.

"Where?" I asked as Zach picked me up again. Whoa, déjà vu.

"Blackthorne."
