Colonial Differences
Dedicated to Who'sThatChick and BlueHeelsKill for reviewing! Thanks and here is chapter two of Colonial Differences!
Cammie's POV
We're waiting for Carolina at our usual hangout spot, the Irish Rock, in downtown Boston. When we got there we sat at our usual table and ordered the usual. Macey, Jonas, Grant, and I were sitting there, laughing and talking about how our teachers shouldn't give us history lessons when we are history, when Carolina walks in…. along with a boy of about 17 with dark brown hair and eyes, kind of like Carolina, only he looks more mysterious and has this… royal aura. He looks over at us, and he leans over to tell Carolina something, causing her to laugh. He gives us another once over and smirks.
"Hey, guys. This is, uh," she stutters.
"Zach Goodeman," he says, smirking again, sitting next to me. That smirk is really starting to bug me. I just want to wipe that smug smirk off his face.
"So, Cammie," Carolina says, noticing my subtle death glare the way only my best friend can. "Are you ready?"
Turning my gaze to her I say, "Yes, I did. You are going to stay long enough to watch, right. You promised."
"I guess we could. Zach, you don't have to be anywhere soon, do you?" she asks.
"No, we could stay," he replies, once again smirking then saying, "So, no one introduced themselves except for me," he looks at everyone expectantly.
"My name's Grant Newman," Grant says, very enthusiastically like only he does, even to strangers; I worry about him sometimes.
"Jonas," Jonas says quietly, then going back to is paper.
"Macey McHenry, as in the senator's daughter," Macey says, not even looking at him. That is why I am friends with this girl.
Zach looks at me, waiting. "She's Cameron Morgan. Don't get her mad, but she is very sweet and funny. Aren't you Cams?" Carolina says.
"Carolina, you know that if you weren't my best friend and were anybody else you would be in agony right now," I say, staring her down, but, like always, she doesn't even flinch.
"I know," she says carelessly, but smiling at me none the less.
""Hey, Grant, did your mom finally get that major client?" Macey asks.
"Yeah, and you have no idea how much it helped us. Now more debts and a little bit extra for about 3 months.
"What does your mom do?" Zach asks.
"She is a dress maker and just recently the Queen had her make a dress for a ball. Thank God!"
"What about you Jonas. What do your parents do?" Zach questioned.
"They're professors at the college. We're doing pretty well for a teacher's salary. I go to school, and we even have a 3 room house. You should come over sometime, if you want," he says, quickly saying the last part.
"So, Macey McHenry. How are your dad and all the politics?"
"Fine. Cammie," she says abruptly looking at me, "When are you up?"
"Soon, I hope. I wrote another song." Just then Tony, they manager comes up and says, "Cammie you're up soon. You have to get ready, sorry."
"Be right there, Tony," I say. Then, "Carolina, please stay." I am not happy at all as I walk away.
Zach POV
When I walked in I saw her. Cammie. She was gorgeous. Her dirty blond almost brown hair was amazing, and so were her blue eyes. I saw her looking at me and I smirked. I immediately saw her expression darken to one of dislike.
We are all talking after the introductions when some guy called Tony takes her away. I hear her tell Carolina not to leave and see Carolina nod slightly and giver her an encouraging smile.
Cammie walks away and I turn to the group. "How long have all of you been friends for?"
"Cammie and I have been friends since we were babies. Our, uh, dads were friends and we saw each other everyday because our parents worked together. I know just about everything about her. She is special and she has had an interesting life. She is a great girl," Carolina tells me, getting this far away look.
"Then I joined up about five years ago, during school," Grant says. "I am like their big brother."
"I was new to school four years ago and they just kinda took me in," Jonas says. "Well, Cammie just came up to me and she took me to their group."
"I met Cammie and Carolina when I went to Carolina's mom's tailoring shop. I was looking at fabrics and they gave me some great fabric combinations and we just became great friends because the dress was an amazing hit at the ball," Macey tells me.
"What about Isaac?" I ask.
"Oh, you mean Carolina's secret crush," Macey says grinning slyly.
"N-n-n-no," Carolina says madly blushing. "Oh, look, Cammie's gonna sing now!"Then I heard her say quietly," I just wish she didn't."
"Hey, everyone! I'm back, and I'll be singing 'Remember When'," then she started singing.
Remember when I was young and so were you
And time stood still and love was all we knew
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when
Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk
Gave our hearts, made the start and it was hard
We lived and learned, life threw curves
There was joy, there was hurt
Remember when
Remember when old ones died and new were born
And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged
We came together, fell apart
And broke each other's hearts
Remember when
Remember when the sound of little feet was the music
We danced to week to week
Brought back the love, we found trust
Vowed we'd never give it up
Remember when
Remember when thirty seemed so old
Now lookin' back, it's just a steppin' stone
To where we are, where we've been
Said we'd do it all again
Remember when
Remember when we said when we turned gray
When the children grow up and move away
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
For all the life we've had
And we'll remember when
Remember when
Remember when
When she finished, I'm pretty sure my mouth was open because Carolina told me to close my mouth.
"You have an amazing voice," I told her when she came back.
"Uh, thanks," she said, looking kind of shocked.
"Zach!" Carolina yells. "We have to go now! It is almost five o'clock!"
"You're right. Nice to meet you guys," I say looking at Cammie then walking out with Carolina.
Cammie POV
Zach leaves and I am sitting there, thinking of his emerald green eyes and theat cocky smirk.
"You like him, huh?" Macey whispers.
"I don't know."
A/N Okay Who'sThatChick, I made it longer and BlueHeelsKill I updated. Sorry for not updating for almost three weeks! I had high school applications and an HSPT on Saturday, so I was a bit busy. On the bright side, my test wasn't that hard!
I also had a little bit of writer's block. I am writing, but I need some time. I'll try to update soon though! Thanks for the two reviews and Favorite alerts!
The song in the story is Remember when by Alan Jackson. I was listening to the song when I wrote that part. More Zammie soon, I promise! And please REVIEW!
Anyways, bye!
