Prom and All that Jazz

AN: Hey guys, it's been a while since I wrote any sort of story, so sorry if I'm a lil' rusty! Anyways, I hope you enjoy this short oneshot I wrote...

Prom, the night that every sane teenage girl dreams of. The dress, the shoes, the limo, being treated like a princess doesn't come around every day.

Apparently, my mother doesn't consider me sane. I haven't exactly been looking forward to prom. Getting dressed up all fancy just isn't my thing. In the end, what's it all for? Spending the night sweating and standing in painful shoes for hours, no thank you! Unfortunately for me, my wish is no one's command, as here I am, sat in front of my mum's vanity mirror with my hair being twisted into a complicated looking up do.

"Are you sure I have to go?" I whined.

"You know it girl. Now stop complaining and hold still, or I won't get this right," my mum commanded. You see, she had strict instructions from my best friend Macey on how to prepare me for the big night, hair, dress, makeup, the whole lot. "There!" she exclaimed, looking satisfied. "Now for one last touch," she said gently, placing a delicate looking star shaped pin in my hair.

"But mum...this was grandma's," I whispered, tearing up at the gesture.

"She would have wanted you to have it," my mum smiled.

There was a loud knock on the door, signalling that Macey and my two other best friends had arrived. My mum disappeared to get the door, whilst I begrudgingly sild on my midnight blue prom dress over my strapless bra and thong, which 'prevented pantie lines from showing up' on my dress, not that I even cared. Once again, this was Macey's doing.

A chorus of "Cammie" and "Oh my God" was squealed as Bex, Liz and Macey made their way into my bedroom. Bex, the exotic goddess, was wearing a golden coloured dress, accentuating her figure in all the right places. Macey wore a simple, mint green dress that brought out her eyes. Finally, little Lizzie was wearing a soft pink, flowy dress, making her look like a fairy.

We went downstairs, ready to leave, when my mum came in with her camera. "Cheese!" she screamed, and we all made 'peace' signs with our fingers, reminding me of when we were 12. "Girls, I have to say, you look badass!" Oh mum, always the charmer...

"Limo's here!" cried Bex, who was practically buzzing with excitement.

"Let's go girls!" shouted Macey, ever the leader.

I gave my mum a soft smile, kissed her on the cheek and rolled my eyes at my friend's antics.

Waiting outside of the limo were Macey, Bex and Liz's dates, Nick, Grant and Jonas. Off to one side, looking as handsome as ever was Zachary 'bad boy' Goode, my worst enemy and biggest crush (not that I'd ever mention that last part to anyone). He eyed me suggestively up and down, before saying "Looking good Gallagher Girl". He always used that dumb nickname for me, irritating me and giving me butterflies at once.

Feeling a little violated, I gave him a dish of his own medicine. Sliding my eyes up and down his toned body, I replied "Not so bad yourself Goode". He just chuckled and pushed me towards the limo, where the others were waiting inside.

Zach and I ended up squished together in the limo, the others claiming enough space for a giant elephant. Zach thought it would be funny to place his hand on my thigh, massaging slightly. Although it gave me tingly feelings all over, I knew he was just doing it to be cocky. I grabbed his hand and whispered menacingly "If that hand goes any further, I will personally chop it off." At this he just smirked and said "Sure," then went back to massaging my leg.

Once we arrived at prom, Zach offered me his arm. Immediately I wanted to reject him, but Liz slid up to me and whispered not so quietly, "Give him a chance Cam," so that's what I did.

Zach lead me into the large sports hall of Gallagher High, which had been transformed into 'A night in Heaven'. Everything was decorated in white, fluffy, 'heavenly' stuff, making me want to puke.

"If they think that this is a night in heaven, clearly nobody on the prom committee has slept with me," Zach murmured to me, making me roll my eyes.

"You are so full of yourself Goode."

He ignored my comment, and just smiled at me, shaking his head. "Dance with me Gallagher Girl."

"Um...I don't really dance," I said awkwardly, and really, it was the truth, I am a rubbish dancer.

"I'm sure that won't be a problem, just put your arms around my neck, the rest will come naturally."

"Fine," I relented, though really it didn't take much persuasion for me to want to dance with Zach. "You're being nice..." I said suspiciously.

Zach just laughed and said, "Of course I'm being nice Cam, I'm always nice."

"No, usually you annoy me on purpose."

Zach avoided my eyes as he said hesitantly, "That was only to get your attention."

Wait! What? Did Zach just say he wanted my attention?!

"Why on Earth would you want my attention? You hate me remember. You annoy me, I'm a bitch back, it's the way we work..." I said, utterly confused.

"I like you Cammie, a lot. I have for a long time now, I just didn't know how to tell you," he whispered in my ear. Oh, and those sweet butterflies suddenly turned into mutant butterflies.

I just stared at him for a while in awe. Zachary Goode liked me. No, he like liked me.

He started to look a little uncomfortable with my staring and said, "Please say something Gallagher Girl. I know you may not feel the same way but I just had to get it off my che-" and I cut him off with a kiss.

"Boy have I wanted to do that for a while," I whispered as I pulled back from his soft lips.

" How about we get out of here, eh? Meet the others at the after party." He suggested.

I nodded excitedly, which he just laughed at. As we ran down the school hallway and out of the main entrance I realised one thing: I really had gotten my perfect prom after all.

AN: Hey guys, I hoped you liked that short but fluffy Zammie story. It was great fun to write, and for anyone who has their prom coming up soon, I hope it ends as well as Cammie's did ;) Anyway, I was thinking of continuing this and do an 'after party' story, but maybe make it an M? Tell me what you think, just review review review! Thanks ~XOXO
