Bonjour mon amies! :) This chapter will be kind of short for a few reasons. 1) I'm kinda -very- lazy 2) Writer's Block and 3) I need more reviews! That seems selfish, but I want to know if I should continue or not, and I really want your opinions! So PLEASE review!
I'm obviously not Ally Carter!
Recap: "They've been constantly telling me things about him, but nothing. Nothing."
Zach's POV:
I've been forced to ignore and avoid Cammie this whole week. They say it might help get her memory back quicker if I'm not there to pressure her into remembering, but it's killing me that she doesn't remember yet. I've remembered every single detail there is about her, from the moment we met until now. I want to see her smile, her warm eyes looking at mine, and just actually see the real Cammie.
I couldn't take it anymore. I know I'm not supposed to try to help her remember, but if there's anyone who can remind her of me, it's me!
After searching everywhere, I finally found her sitting in the windowsill, drawing in the frost with her finger.
"Hello, Gallagher Girl," I said, hoping that hearing her nickname will spark her memory. She turned and looked at me, obviously surprised that she wasn't alone.
"Oh. Uh, hey Zach," Cammie replies slowly. Hearing her voice and finally seeing her looking at me gave me a warm feeling that's indescribable. I looked in her amazing eyes, but even though she was looking right at me, her eyes were vague and distant. I could tell that, sadly, she still didn't completely remember me.
"So...how are you?" How are you? That's all I could think of? Nice one, Goode.
"I'm fine," Cammie says softly, but when I raise my eyebrows she sighed. "Okay, I'm not fine. Honestly, I'm just lost. It's frustrating that I can't remember, it's like there's like this big gap in my mind! Nothing makes sense, and I know you guys are all trying really hard. I guess it must be bad for you too, because Macey, Bex, and Liz all told me that we were kind of dating before?" She looks at me and tilted her head a little.
I wasn't really sure how to reply so I muttered, "Well, yeah, um, kind of. I guess you could consider it as dating. Kind of." When have I ever had trouble talking to someone? Me, Zach Goode, struggling to speak.
She just looked at me, puzzled, then just turned to face the window again, getting a faraway look in her eye. "I have been trying to remember Zach. Really, I have. But I don't think I can. So maybe we should all give up. I don't think remembering is that important, is it?" She paused for a minute. "You seem nice though, so maybe we can start all over and get to know each other again? As friends?" Gallagher Girl finally looks back at me.
I wanted to yell out that NO it's NOT okay to forget everything! Remembering me, remembering us, is more important than anything. I need to get Cammie back. My Gallagher Girl. My everything.
But I'd rather get to be Cammie's friend than to lose her all together. So I agreed to the idea and just walked out of the room.
Being just friends takes a lot of self-control. A lot. Any sudden impulse to hug or kiss her can't be done or I'll end up creeping her out and ruining our friendship. The same goes with any other romantic gestures. We've been hanging out as friends for awhile now, but I'm done. I didn't come here to be Cammie's other friend. I came here to be with her. It's time for Plan B. I'm gonna do everything I can to get my Gallagher Girl back for good.
And it all starts with M&Ms.
I know I kind of ended at an awkward place, but I had writer's block! Please review my other chapters and check out my profile to do my new poll and to read my other stories I'm working on! Thanks for reading! (FYI, I might write more if people would review...)
Everyday is a good(e) day! *pun*
