Sitting quietly in my lonely room, I ask myself…What if I have had said no from the beginning, instead of getting into this whole mess just expanding bigger and bigger. I knew who to blame, but I just couldn't get my heart to believe in it.

...

Walking to what everybody calls "home" I flip the hood on my jacket to prevent the cool breeze blowing my brunette hair into my view. Today was a sunny day, a day I would prefer to be outside the whole evening, but wasn't allowed. That's the kind of place I live in, the rules so strike, that I can't go visit my boyfriend for more then two hours. It's not like I follow the rules, because I don't, but it gets so ridiculous, that I just spend the night in his room, not caring if I get in trouble. The thought of Zach made me smile. He was the most amazing boyfriend you could ever imagine, and the best part of all, is that he's gorgeous plus a great kisser.

Looking over to my right, I see Liz's orphanage, my younger stepsister. I only get to see her twice a month...ironic right? I think not. And Anyway she's alright, but thinks she better then everyone else. Sometimes bitchy, but other then that, just a normal stepsister.

I sigh and quicken my pace, moving faster holding my hood up so it wouldn't fall back into place, wanting to see Zach. I approach the door and cautiously turn the handle, peeking inside before I walk in. I scan all around me before making my first move to the staircase running on the rough wood steps two at a time, not caring that I was breaking a rule.

As I approach my room, I walk in thankfully not spotting my worst enemy, Macey. She made me the most hated person in the orphanage where I live and it all started from the beginning, when Zach first asked me out. If you haven't suspected the obvious, she has a major crush on him and threatened me multiple times to break up with Zach, but he took care of things, thank god.

Sighing in relief, I walk over to my bed grabbing my ipod off the near by desk, plugging the headphones in my ears. I slouch down organizing my pillows to get in a comfortable position and close my eyes enjoying this peaceful moment. I never really have the time to think alone in a silent room, so I take the chance humming the words to the music I listen to, relaxing and draining all my worries out of my head.

"OUCH!" I scream jerking up, immediately frightened with terror turning my head toward my hips wondering where the sudden pain came from. Strong hands rest over my most likely bruised hips now, and I glance up to see Zach looking down at me with a grin on his face. I pout and swat him with my hand setting my ipod elsewhere. "Not funny Zach." I say getting off the bed and feel his hands slip away from my waist.

"Yes, but that was my excitement of the day." He chuckles. I hear a squeak from the bed he sits on and I roll my eyes crossing my arms over my chest facing him.

"What have I told you about knocking?" I say still slightly mad, but I calm down gradually.

"Sorry mother." He frowns acting so innocent, I couldn't help but smile. "Now come here" Zach pats the space next to him, "Or I can just get up and come to you…your chose."

With a lazy grin, I walk towards him and sit down, feeling his arm rap around me. "You know, I still don't forgive you."

"What?" He says looking down at me with that flirty smile I can never resist. "How can you not, by how dashing I look?"

"Would you stop?" I say bursting out laughing and snuggling closer to him. After catching my breath, I went on. "It's harder then you think."

"So you do agree that I look dashing to you?" He asks raising an eyebrow looking down at me.

"Duh" I say, not looking up at his face. I grab his hand into mine and start playing with his fingers, wanting to change the subject.

"That's what I thought." He mumbles and kisses my hair.

There was a long awkward silence, before I went on. "Do you think I look…cute to you?" regretting what I what I just asked, scared out of my mind for what his answer might be.

"Duh" He says trying to imitate my girly voice, and I couldn't help but giggle. "But not just cute…the most amazing gorgeous, hottest girl I ever seen." I sigh in relief dropping his hand out of mine and wrapping my arms around him. We stayed in this embrace for who knows how long, and I didn't want it to end, wanting to be with Zach forever.

...

I wake up at the sound of a soft snore in my ear. Zach's arms were around me, in an embrace and I had no way of getting out of it, not that I minded. I turn my head the slightest bit, and kiss him on the check. I snuggle up closer to him, not letting any space come between us and fall right back asleep not realizing how tired I was.

...

"Cammie…" I could feel someone beside me, shaking my shoulder gently. I didn't want to move. "Cammie…" the same voice said, gentle and sweet. I could feel a warm breath on my cheek and all of a sudden, lips started moving up and down my neck, the person mumbling my name after ever kiss. I moan silently curling up in a ball when hands came around my waist pulling me closer to this person. I wrap my arms around my knees squeezing my eyes shut. "Cammie" The voice said again, moving his mouth to my forehead.

"What?" I whisper not wanting to speak, but to sleep. Suddenly, lips came over mine and I open my eyes in shock, but when I realize it's Zach kissing me I relax. I kiss him back enjoying this moment and release my arms around my knees to wound them around his neck pulling him closer to me. I could feel him smile under my lips, and he deepened the kiss, his hands combing through my hair. After a moment, I break away from his kiss for air, my breath coming out ragged, but I wasn't the only one. "What was that for?" I asked, not that I didn't enjoy it or anything, it just took me by surprise.

Zach looked hurt. "Is it so hard to believe that I wanted to kiss my girlfriend?" He asked with a frown on his face. With that as his answer, I blush looking down at my lap. Zach shuffles so we are both sitting up with me in his lap. He grabs my chin with his hand so I would have to look up at his face. He had a smile now on lips and it calmed me down, glad that he understood. "Beautiful" He mumbled starring into my eyes and moved closer so that our faces where an inch apart from each other. "Do you trust me?" He whispered, his gaze moving down to my lips, but he didn't give me a chance to answer, his lips coming onto mine again, hungrily. I kiss him back willingly and he puts his arms around me pulling me down on the bed with him.

"Yes" I finally mumble onto his lips. Finally, he pulls away, but doesn't move his arms around me and I don't do the same. We stare into each other's eyes for the longest time. I knew time was ticking by quickly, but at that moment, I simply didn't care. I was with Zach in his arms and that's all that mattered.

"Good" Zach says tracing me out of my thoughts. I remove my hands out of his hair and try to sit up, but couldn't.

"Umm Zach, can you let go of me?" I ask in a slight teasing voice. He removed his arms around my body and helped me off the bed, putting his arm back around my waist holding me tight so no space came between us. I sigh happily leaning my head on his shoulder. Suddenly, the door handle made a squeaking noise. Immediately, I jump away from Zach feeling very nervous. I take deep breaths to try to calm myself hoping I wasn't going to get in trouble again.

As the door opens slowly, I see a peak of Slick dark hair, to only make me more nervous. I get back to Zachs side in spare time, wrapping my arms around him as Macey comes into the room. "Hey Zach" she says twirling a piece of perfect hair shutting the door behind her.

I pray for him not to say anything back at her. Derrick nods slightly in her direction, and she giggled. I roll my eyes at Zach and he does the same.

I remove one of my arms around his waist and start to head for the door, but she blocked my pathway. "What do you want?" I ask in my non-friendly voice. I couldn't help but notice that she put her hand on Zachs chest.

Macey glanced at me once before starring back at Zach again and put her pout face on to look so innocent. Oh, puh-lease, like that would do anything.

"Oh Cammie, why does it sound like you always hate me?" She asks not even looking at me, but starring at Zach.

"Because Macey, I do. And get away from my boyfriend." I tug Zach's back with me a few inches away. Under her breath, I could hear her say well.

As if I didn't say anything, she went on. "Anyway I have some exciting news to tell you." Macey jumped up and down in fake enthusiasm. I glance at Macey to Zach, back at Macey and wait for her to go on. Finally after a minute of silence, she continues. "Someone wants to adopt you." I open my mouth in shock. This was good new…no it was amazingly spectacularly good news, but why me?

"What?" I ask, not believing what I just heard. More slowly, she answered.

"Someone. Wants. To. Adopt. You." Macey said like I was deaf, stretching out each word one at a time.

I shake my head already knowing what she said the first time. "Yes, but why me." I said asking more to myself then anybody else. I feel Zach shrug beside me and I look up at his face to see hurt in his eyes. He puts his hand on my check silently stroking, his finger moving back and forth. I lean into his hand, not wanting him to stop. We stand there for who knows how long and Zach rests his head on top of mine.

"I'm going to miss you." He whispers, and right when he said it, I felt sick. I wouldn't be able to see Zach…Again…Ever. I couldn't let that happen, because then Macey would have him to herself. At the thought of that, I started to gage…Definitely not!

"I'm not going to." I finally say after a long pause. I feel Zach shuffle beside me, turning my body so I was facing him. He was starring into my eyes, not saying anything, and the silence was painful. I shift uncomfortably.

"Cammie…I-"

"Hello, still in the room people." Macey said waving her hands in the air, interrupting Derrick. I turn toward her to give her a death glare and she just gave me a fake smile, probably glad Zach didn't get to finish on what he was about to say.

"Macey, could you leave." I say pointing to the door, but she was just examining her nails and shaking her head. "Please" I said gritting my teeth so tight that it was painful. I didn't realize I was shaking until Zach put his arm around me, rubbing his hand up and down my arm to calm me down. And I do, but just a little.

"You no Cammie, this is my room to. I mean you can't just keep it all to yourself like you own the place…and you don't, totally don't. I mean most of the time I'm not even in here, I should be the one complaining-"

"OK!" Zach said interrupting Macey's babbling. "Since you won't leave, we'll just get out of your way." Zach held me close to him, like in a protecting way walking right past her and she did NOT have a happy smile on her face. Zach just rejected Macey...right in her face…with me there. I smirk, that will show her.

=)

omgomgomgomg I have the most amazing plans for this story, but your just going to have to read, review, and find out!

P.S. I totally agree that the beginning is really boring, but I had to put it in, because I had to let you know what was going on. Don't worry it won't be like that again and so sorry that this chapter is so short.
