Firstly, I AM SO SORRY! I know it has been FOREVER since I last updated. I have been so busy with school work, and everything. I promise it will NOT hapen again!
Anyway, Disclaimer! I do not own the Gallagher Girl's series. This is merely a fan fiction based on it!
Zach's POV (NEW POV! Sorry, but more people wanted it multiple POV. I promise it won't give the story away!)
I looked down the window in surprise. I could see it, her pale face, and the hopeful look on the face. I look down at my work pretending not to here, but it is kind of hard, especially when there is a girl called Cameron Morgan next to you and the person you are trying to ignore is calling your name.
I look at Cammie next to me. She is staring straight ahead, but I can see the red of her cheeks draining away, and one word forming on her lips. Skye. Yes, it was Skye my girlfriend calling me. I don't even remember how I got assigned that title. It just kind of happened. I saw her being bullied by some of these older boys when she was walking home, and I just helped her. After I walked her home, she kissed me. And stuff. I don't really want to break up with her, and so I just stick with it. Anyway, some time soon Cameron will be going home, and so she doesn't have to be like that all the time. She will find someone else, someone who cared for her, wouldn't cheat on her, and could give her what she wanted. That was so not me.
The teacher looks down at me, eyebrows raised.
"You know her Zach?" she asked.
"Yeah." my voice was raspy. Not exactly like I wanted it, "Yeah, she is my girlfriend."
I hear the whoosh of breath of Cameron beside me, and I see her biting her lip, trying so hard to not let the tears out. I don't even look at her, copying her, and keeping my head straight ahead.
The teacher narrows his eyes. "Zach, it is against the spy rules to do that. You must never tell a normal person who you are! That is the point of all those fake identities and all the other troubles we go to! Do you not appreciate that Cammie dear, do you want to go?"
Obviously she didn't think that Cameron would be able to go through this as she had also experienced the same thing. That or she had seen her eye's misting up.
Without a word, Cameron just leaves, giving me one last look, as if to see what I was really feeling, if I really liked Skye. I did my best to keep my expression cool, and the cold look she gave me told me I succeeded.
"ZACH!" the teacher was talking to me again, and it took all of my courage to focus on her. "Answer my question please?"
"Um..." I say lamely, not wanting to say outright that I had actually gotten side-tracked.
The teacher sighs, and tells me to go to the principal.
I wait nervously outside the dark door.
"Come in!" a voice sings chirpily, and taking a deep breath I pushed open the door.
"Zach. Firstly you have to understand that what you did is very counterproductive. We have erased Skye's brain and so now all she remembers of you is just a boy who helped her. Nothing more, and nothing less. I would have thought that the time you spent with Cammie..." he winces, and I look down. He obviously knew of our falling out, "And since she experienced the same problems, I thought you would have understood the severity of this."
"Sir-" I try to explain, but he holds up his hands.
"Zach, I have no choice but to suspend you from Blackthorne for 2 days. You can stay in a separate cabin and all those who have my permission can only visit you."
I look down at the desk, tracing the patterns in the wood. "Well, I guess I will be going."
"Oh and Zach" I look back in surprise, "I'll get people to send you your food." He winked mischievously and my smile drops, I had thought he was going to give me some advice on spying or something.
I pack my things and trudge to a house segregated by walls but still in the campus. Everyone was in class, and I seemed to be the only person in the whole school. It was not a good feeling. In the horizon I see a figure sitting in the wet grass, and even from this distance, I can see the small tears running down her eyes. I look away guiltily, but then realize that the place she is sitting, I would have to go past if I wanted to get to my destination.
Slowly I go over, and stop awkwardly in front of her. A lot had gone on between us in the past few weeks, and I didn't really know what to do about it.
"Leave me alone Zach, shouldn't you be gone or something."
"I...um... I have to spend the next two days doing nothing. Just locked up."
"Then go."
I wince at her, but she stares stonily ahead, beyond me. I dump my things next to her before sitting next to her.
"Look, Cammie, I didn't really -" I break off, as I realize that she is looking expectantly at me. I swallow, I never really thought that she would look at me again.
"Cammie, what happened with Skye. I was just helping her. You know that she had been bullied, and I was just walking through town, and I helped her with the bullies. I dropped her off home and she uh-"
Cammie looks away from me, back into the distance and I continue.
"Well, uh- I knew she was your friend, and so I hoped getting close to her meant that I could find out where you live or something - NOT THAT I WANTED TO BE YOUR STALKER. But things became heated, and I really didn't want to hurt her feelings.
"CAMMIE!" I gently shake her head, "Look at me. I. Did. Not. Mean. It."
Her eyes have tears in them and she tentatively reaches a hand out to me. One that touches my cheek softly. I go in to press my lips gently on hers when I hear someone yell my name.
"ZACH!" I look annoyed as I hear Skye running towards me, followed by one of the guards we have hear at Blackthorne. Not again.
