Chapter 2

It all started on the morning after a wolf night. The woodcutters were getting ready for a days work in the forrest outside the town. They were chopping trees, about to have breakfast. Little did they know that a girl of 17 years was watching them. Well, she was mainly watching Zach but that's not the point.

Cammie was hiding behind the trees watching Zach. He was cutting a tree a little bit out of the clearing, oblivious to the fact that Cammie was observing him. Cammie knew that good girls aren't supposed to hunt rabbit, or go into the woods alone, but for some reason Zach always had a way of making her.

"Come on Zach, the trees will still be there after we eat," said one of the woodcutters.

"Ok, I'm coming," Zach mumbled, sticking his axe into a nearby tree stump.

Cammie came round the tree and eyed Zach's axe.

As the men were eating their breakfast, horses came through ready to carry the wood back to the village. The men always have lively conversation when eating but Zach stayed out of it, not talking to anyone.

When Zach got back to his tree, he found that his axe had gone. He heard shuffling round behind the clearing. He slowly walked round the trees and out into a grassy area and there, standing with his axe at her side, was Cammie.

"Give me that," Zach said walking up to her slowly with a smirk on his face. He reached out to try and grab the axe but to no avail.

"What will you give me for it?" Cammie cheekily said. Walking backwards around a tree. Zach followed her.

"They didn't tell you?" Zach's smirk slid off his face.

"Tell me what?" Cammie's smile also slid off her face at Zach's serious voice.

"They've arranged for you to marry Josh Abrams." Zach explained as he came up behind her.

"My mother finally gets what she's always wanted: money."

"Josh gets what he's always wanted: you." Zach said just to make the situation more solemn.

"Well what do we do now?" Cammie said with a crack in her voice. She wanted to be with Zach forever. Not some guy that she barely knows and doesn't love.

"Do you want to marry him?" Zach asked hoping the answer would be 'no', not wanting Cammie to go and marry some one else.

"You know I don't", Cammie said walking up to him.

"Prove it." Zach said.

"How?" Cammie questioned.

"Runaway with me." Zach stated. Cammie let out a little giggle.

Cammie walked up to Zach so they were chest to chest. "Where would we go?" Not quite believing what he was suggesting.

"Anywhere you want." Zach said circling Cammie. "The ocean. The city. The mountains." Cammie got chills from having him whispering in her ear. "Are you afraid?" That damn smirk was back, making it hard for Cammie to think.

"No" Cammie was too out of breath to say anything other than that.

"Oh yeah?" Zach pushed Cammie so she was laying down in the grass. Cammie let out a little shriek in surprise. Zach had his knees either side of Cammie, who was finding it very difficult to breathe. "Really? You'd leave your home, your family, your friends? Your whole life?"

"I would do anything to be with you." Cammie managed to get out. Zach leaned over her so his head was nearer her face.

"I thought you'd say that," Zach said as he got off of Cammie and held out a hand to help her up.

Cammie ignored the hand and got up by herself and pushed Zach. "Did you?" She said giggling.

Zach cradled her face in his hands, suddenly turning serious. "Let's do something about it."

Cammie glanced over to the horses standing on the other side of the field. "It'll be half a days ride before anyone notices we're gone."

Zach brought his face so close to Cammie's she thought that Zach was going to kiss her. "I'll race you." He whispered.

Cammie pushed him away and started running for the horses. Zach followed right after, grabbing his forgotten axe on the way. Suddenly they heard three low and loud bell sounds. Cammie stopped and Zach nearly crashed into her.

"The wolf." Cammie whispered.

They turned around and headed back to the village, following the other woodcutters. You could hear the neighing of the horses as they were frightened from the sound. Once they got to the haystacks they stopped for that was where everyone was gathered.

Cammie walked quickly up to her friends. "Who was it?"

Now Cammie had three main friends, other than Zach, Bex Baxter, Liz Sutton and Macey Mchenry and they were all completely different. Cammie was the quiet one, not wanting to be seen. Bex was the loud one and looked like a Egyptian goddess. She always had to stand out and try to get Cammie to stand out, but it never worked. Cammie had known Bex since she was two years old when Bex moved to the town. Liz was the shy but clever one, always inventing new things. Liz was small and petite but gave you the biggest hugs. Now Macey was the most stunning one. She always had to have the nicest clothes. People from afar thought she was just a snob but once you got to know her you realised that she had just a big heart as anyone.

Anyway back to the story.

"Oh Cammie," Liz cried.

"Who was it." Cammie said, getting impatient.

"It was your sister." Bex was also crying, a rare thing for Bex, but Ex had been close to Cammie's sister too.

I have also forgotten to mention Cammie's sister. She was called Eva Morgan. Eva was only one year older than Cammie so they were very close. But what Cammie didn't know is that Eva had fallen in love with Josh. She was always going after him and wanting to be with him, though Josh wanted nothing to do with her.

Cammie ran around the haystacks with tears threatening to fall. Her mother was standing over Eva's body crying.

"Mum," Cammie cried running into her arms.

"Oh Cammie, darling," Rachel said hugging her last remaining daughter, "we've lost Eva and your father, please don't make me loose someone else in my family."

"It's ok mum, I'm not going anywhere." Cammie said eventhough less than 10 minutes ago she was up and ready to leave with Zach. She just hoped that he wasn't near to hear that.

However standing just behind the haystack was Zach hoping what he thought he heard was wrong.

An- thank you for taking the time to read. I don't know when I'll be able to update next as I am going on holiday tomorrow so I am hoping there will be internet. Please review.
