The next day, Zach was his normal, cocky self again. There was no sign of pain anywhere, as she had predicted. As he walked down the halls, his friends stopped to greet him and the cheerleaders were checking him out. It disgusted her. She decided to ignore him and kept walking distractedly. After almost bumping into five different people, she actually bumped into someone. It was Josh, and it wasn't one of those cliché moments when her book fell out of her arms and their hands touch. No, it wasn't cliché at all, but they did start talking.

"Hey Cammie. Want to walk to class together?" he asked. Cammie nodded. Josh was cute and nice, plus, she didn't have many friends yet. " So..." he said, trying to start a conversation.

"How was your day yesterday?" Cammie asked.

Josh shrugged. "After first period, everything went back to normal. I liked first period much better. How about you?" He flashed her a smile.

"I went to culture class and met a guy named Dillon. He was nice, but I had to dance with Zach." she made a disgusted face.

"Dillon is my best friend actually. You know Zach?"

"Sadly, yes. He's my neighbour, and I think my brother is friends with him. Oh the horror." she fake fainted.

"Oh, cool. Zach is on the football team with me. He's okay. I'm guessing that you don't like him?"

She laughed. "Yep. I heard him talking about a girl named Tina. Who's that?" Cammie asked.

"Oh, she's the daughter of a magazine editor. Not as bad as you would think. She's really nice, but she's also nosy. She might wear... Shorter skirts, but that's nothing," he explained.

Cammie nodded. This girl wasn't that bad. They discussed more until they reached the classroom. "Well, I'm going to sit next to Jonas. See you after class," Josh said, and waved to his slightly nerdy friend in the corner.

Cammie scanned the room and caught sight of Bex. She walked towards the desk and sat down. Bex immediately spun around. "What just happened?! Why are you with Josh?!" she squealed excitedly.

Cammie laughed. "Bex, it's my second day. I barely know the guy!" She threw her hands up into the air.

Bex raised her eyebrows. "So you don't think he's cute?"

Cammie face palmed. "Bex...," she groaned. After that, she buried her nose in her textbook, hoping for Bex to shut up; instead, Bex started talking even more.

"Cam? You never answered the question. Do you, or do you not think that Josh Abrams is cute?" Bex asked, keeping a straight face.

Cammie knew that Bex was going to persist until she answered. Even though she had only known Bex for a day, she felt like they were best friends. "Fine. Yes," she said flatly.

Bex smirked. "Yes what?" she teased.

"Yes, I think that Josh is cute!" Cammie admitted, clearly exasperated.

"Well, since I'm your friend, we are going to help you spy on him and hook you guys up," Bex declared.

"First of all, I only said he was cute. I didn't say that I liked him. I mean, there are plenty of cute guys at this school, so it doesn't mean that I like him. Secondly, even if I did like him, we would not spy on him... unless we had to."

"Hey, friends don't let you do stupid things... alone," Bex stated.

Just then, Mr. Mosckowitz cleared his throat. "Attention! We are going to have a transfer student into or class. Please welcome Mr. Goode." He gestured to the doorway, where Zach was standing, winking at all of the girls. He strided in, chewing his gum obnoxiously. Every move of his jaw annoyed her. It was bad enough that he was her neighbour, but now he was in her class. It's okay, she thought, as long as he doesn't sit anywhere near you, you're okay.

It seems like she had run out of luck, because just as he passed her, he went back and sat behind her. "Hey neighbour," he said. He propped his feet on her chair and looked in his backpack. "I guess we'll have to share books. I forgot mine." He moved to the desk next to Cammie. Cammie mentally face-palmed, and scooted closer to Zach, while trying to stay farther away from him. Instead, she was close enough to smell the mint from Zach's gum. Mr. M read from the book, and Zach scooted closer. Cammie's body tensed when he did.

"Relax, I know I'm hot," he said.

"I don't think I can relax when you're so close to me," Cammie snapped. "Could you just share with one of your friends?"

Zach smiled, but a tiny bit of hurt flashed through his eyes. "Hey, it's only for one class, and you'll never notice I'm here," he said.

Cammie seemed satisfied, but still kept her distance. From what she heard, Zach was a player, but she didn't have to hear it to know.

Independent study was a bore, but Macey was in it, so it wasn't completely bad. Cammie took the time to study, but every few seconds, she would find her eyes drifting to the table where Josh, Dillon, and Zach was sitting. She kept wondering, How could a sweet guy like Josh be friends with Zach? Macey stopped reading her magazine, and looked at Cammie.

"You like Zach?" she asked, completely ignorant to Cammie's horrified expression.

"What?! No!"

Macey raised an eyebrow. "Then why are you staring at him like a creeper?"

"Am not! I was just... wondering," Cammie defended.

"Wondering about what?"

"How Josh could be friends with a jerk like Zach."

"Don't we all?"

Macey looked over at the table. "What about Dillon? A little spy told me that he was flirting with you."

Cammie made a serious face. "First of all, we weren't flirting, we were talking. Secondly, he's cute, but he's not my type."

Macey raised her eyebrows again. "So you have a type?"

Cammie let out a sigh. "No Macey, I don't."

"Then why did you j-."

"We are dropping this topic!" Cammie interrupted.

The rest of the period was silent, with the occasional cursing of Cammie, who kept getting paper cuts.

"And the sheep chased him forever," Cammie laughed, recalling the time when Grant was chased by a sheep in Ireland.

Josh laughed. "Wait, so he just kept running for the whole day? That hilarious!"

The two kept on telling stories by the lockers, not paying attention to the outside world, until he barged in. "Hey Camster. Who's this?" he asked, with a slightly menacing tone.

"Grant, this is Josh. Josh, this is my brother, Grant," Cammie introduced.

"Nice to meet you," Josh held out his hand. Grant smacked it away.

"I don't want any of your introductions. I just want to know if you're dating Cammie."

"No?" Josh answered, but it sounded more like a question.

Grant immediately became cheerful again. "Okay. See ya." Grant walked away.

Cammie started blushing. "Sorry about my brother. He's kind of an overprotective maniac," she apologized.

Josh waved her off. "It's okay. I get it, seeing it as he is your twin."

Cammie thanked him and they kept on walking; this time, they were talking about cats, nothing related to funny stories of Grant.
