New Story! Thanks for reading!
Prologue
How could they?
That one question played through my head, hours on end.
"I can't go back to the room. She'll be there." Bex had said.
"They think we have to act like nothing's wrong-that we have to pretend so maybe she'll get her memory back or whatever."
Bex hadn't spoken to me for days. But truthfully, it felt like millennia. Zach and Bex began spending more and more time together. It seemed like everything was falling apart around me in the means of not even a week. (I don't know the exact time period)
Why am I asking me these questions, battling with my self on the inside? I wish I could just let all my frustration out of something, more or less Catherine's face. That woman was the definition of evil, inside and out.
I don't understand why I asked myself of how they could do anything; it is me who has brought the suffering of Gallagher.
Everyone would just be better off it I wasn't there. If I had never been born, the Circle wouldn't have come after any of us, everyone's life would have been ten times better.
"Why is it always me?" I asked myself in a meek whisper, not fully trusting my voice. I was slightly beginning to look like the old Cammie. I was beginning to develop some more meat on my bones.
I heard footsteps out side of the door of my dorm room. I quickly grabbed a book and begin fake reading. I had accidentally grabbed Percy Jackson and The Olympians.
"And Zach was like-" All conversations stopped as they noticed me in the corner of the room, huddled on my bed with a book.
I looked up before casting my gaze down quickly. Before my eyes dropped, I got a glimpse of Macey's reassuring smile, Liz's regretful look, and Bex's hard glare.
Her glare caused me to become more pissed then I already was.
"How are you feeling?" I gave a quick, forced smile to Macey's question before returning to my book.
"Hey, we were going to the P&E Barn and we were wondering..?" She asked, a small smile was evident on her naturally beautiful face.
Before I could answer, Bex jumped ahead of me, "Of course not, she is a complete solo player. Friends, family, assistance-completely out of the question. Right, Cammie?"
She turned to me with a hard, accusing look on her face as she looked at me expectantly. I stood there paralyzed for a moment before a voice snapped me out of my trance.
"Guys? Where are..." His inquiry was cut short as he peered over at me.
Bex, again, jumped up and started again, "Oh, we were just...comparing observations...right, guys?"
I had heard enough, I stomped through the line of my old friends and boyfriend with tears threatening to spill from my face.
"Cammie! Wait!" Zach's voice shouted from the other end of the hall, "Cammie?"
"What!" I shouted, "What else could you possibly want?" the tears were pushing through the defenses I had made to keep them in.
"Please, calm down. Why don't we just go back to your room and we can talk...quietly?" He was so ignorant, to act like he knows what I was going through.
The other girls ran into the hall and stood beside Zach, "You talk to me like I'm a child, well you know what? I'm not; I can make decisions by myself."
Bex scoffed, "Like the decision to go up against the Circle without anyone for back up?"
I glared at her with a look that-I wish-could kill, "You know what Bex, yes I did. I'm done. It's obviously you don't need nor want me around. I'm just the bad leftovers from the old Cammie."
Zach's mouth opened, but I was already down the grand stairs of the academy. I quickly found one of my secret passages.
I leaned against the wall, wondering where I went wrong with my life.
I slid down the wall, pondering how I would ever get my life back on track.
I cried, hoping for any form of escape.
I planned my own escape, because I am no one's leftovers.
Well, review! It was short because it was just a prologue, so...yeah! Thanks!
