I've always enjoyed reading one-shots and now I'm making my own. Enjoy!
Just one. One second. That's all it takes to change your life. One second you could be living on the street, next second you could be some hot-shot billionaire living in a large-ass mansion. One second you could be holding the girl you love and the next she's gone forever. Not as in, she's dead or anything. Just as in she's not yours anymore. But then again Cammie was never really mine. Or at least I never told her that.
Becasue I, Zach Goode, am a coward, when it comes to love.
As I jogged through the forest, past the tress, I thought about everything Cammie and I had been through from when Blackthorne first did that exchange with Gallagher to a few months ago, 7 years later. I stopped to catch my breath. I glanced at my watch. 10:00, it read. Jack and I were meeting for coffee at Starbucks so I decided to start heading back. As I made my way out of the forest she was all I could think about. Cammie. Cammie. Her name teased me. It taunted me.
I came up to Starbucks and headed inside. Jack was sitting at one of the tables in the back. I sat down in the chair across from him.
"What's up. man?" I asked smirking.
"Well, Kristen's been bugging me lately. Something about me needing a new haircut." he answered. "Other than that, nothing I guess."
"Aww, trouble in paradise? Poor Jack."
"Shut up." he said as my smirk grew larger. "So what's up with you and Cammie?"
My smirk vanished. "Well despite the fact she's getting married to some guy tomorrow, nothing really."
Jack spat out his coffee. "What? You two were like a match made in heaven. I knew you should have asked her out when you had the chance. Heck! If I knew this was going to happen I would have asked her out for you since you obviously never the balls to do so."
"Yeah well..." I sighed. "It's too late now."
"You know what? You need something to cheer you up! Let's go hit a club."
"Really Jack? The love of my life is getting married tomorrow and you think going to a club is going to make me feel better?" I asked angrily. He shrugged.
I sighed. "Fine. Let's go." I said. We headed outside and drove to the nearest club. It was called "Muy Caliente" We entered the club and went straight for the bar.
"We're getting you drunk tonight, Goode!" Jack yelled above the loud music 4 shots later. "Hey, can you add some coffee to my vodka?" he slurred at the bartender. "What 23 year old adds coffee to their vodka? Shit! Jack must be drunk as hell!" I thought to myself.
Just then some spanish chick sat down to me. She winked at me seductively. "Tu eres caliente." I said to her. "What the fuck am I thinking?"
She purred into my ear in response. "Porque no bailas?" I asked her. She shrugged and looked at me then inclined her head towards the dance floor. I got up and took her hand. I lead her towards the dance floor.
"S.O.S" By Rhianna was blaring through the speakers. Spanish girl and I started dancing. My hands were on hips. We swayed to the beat of the song. My hands were going all over her body. I closed my eyes and tried not think about what I was doing. Instead I saw a perfect picture of Cammie staring at me. My eyes snapped open. "Fuck! I can't do this!" I pulled away from Spanish girl. I needed to stop that wedding and get back my Gallagher Girl.
"Jack!" I yelled.
"What'sthematter?" he slurred. I smirked.
"I'm going after Cammie."
"Goode, go get your girl man! I'll be here if ya need me." He said as he swayed. And with that I got in the car and sped off towards my apartment to get my stuff.
Did you love it? Hate it? Review PLz?
Don't worry this is a 2 part one-shot, with possibly a epilogue! Disclaimer- I do not own the Gallagher Series or any character affiliated with it. I do however own Jack. ;)
I'd also like to take this time to thank all my reviewers of my other story "Complication" which is still in-progress.
