Hi.
Sorry it took me so long to update, but I've found it hard to keep the storyline where I want it, and I know some of you wanted it to be more exiting.
This chapter isn't as long as what i normally do, but I'm going to put the next one up tomorrow. :)
Tell me what you think than thanks for all your comments x)
The Hotel
Cammie
The awkwardness between me and Zach had subsided quite a bit since we had left the airport and i brought up our situation. He seemed to agree with what i was saying; that we should try and get along so the mission is easier for both of us. I just didn't know how long this was going to last. Can you go from being so angry at someone because of a relationship, to sending three weeks together and getting along?
We pulled into a parking space at the hotel and i took in where we would be staying. The huge building was obviously expensive to stay in, and underneath the name on the side of the building were four gold stars. I looked at the rows and rows of widows and double doors with balconies that covered the side of the building and could help but wonder how much it was costing for both me and Zach to stay here for three weeks. As we made our way into the lobby to check in, i wondered if our rooms would be next to each other in case people got suspicious and realised that we weren't actually a couple. I waited with all our luggage while Zach got our keys. I noticed him smiling at the lady behind the desk and laughing at what she said. What was he doing? We were supposed to be a couple. People aren't going to believe us if he goes flirting with anything in a skirt. My thought came to a stop when i saw him say something to the woman behind the desk and then motion over to me with his hand, and a warm smile on his face. The woman smiled at me and waved in my direction. I awkwardly smiled back and gave a small wave. Oh. So they had been talking about me. Us. How are on our honey moon. I felt guilty for assuming Zach was back to his heartbreaker ways. I covered whatever i was feeling, as Zach made his way over to me.
"Hey. You okay?" He asked me as he passed me my key. I noticed him tuck his into his pocket as we started walking to the lift.
"Yeah. I'm fine, why?"
"No reason." He smiled and pressed the button to take us to the eighth floor once we were in the lift with our suitcases.
"So, are we both staying on the eighth floor?"
Zach looked over at me and gave me a look I couldn't read and then turned away without replying. Weird.
The lift stopped and the doors opened and we both walked out into a corridor lined with oak doors with their number engraved in the middle. I looked down at my key and saw that it said 88 and looked around for the room that I would be staying in. Once i found it, i turned to Zach and pointed to my room.
"I'm staying in this one. Where's your room?"
Zach's eyebrows pinched together and he shifted his feet. "I'm staying in the same room as you Cammie. We are meant to be married. If people see that we are married and staying in different rooms, they are going to know there is something up. I thought that you were joking about us staying together in the lift."
"Oh. Um. Okay. I guess. I mean, we are getting along well right? So what if it is a bit weird? I mean-"
Zach cut me off and could tell that he was trying hard not to laugh at me uncomfortable-ness. "Look, Cammie, just calm down okay. It's fine. We will be able to get paper work and stuff done easier this way anyway."
I relaxed at Zach's open minded point of view. "Yeah, your right. It fine." I said with a smile.
He laughed at my pervious panic and moved around me to unlock the door to our room. I followed him in, but was busy fighting with the retractable handle on my suitcase when i walked straight into Zach's hard back.
"What are you doing?" I stumbled backwards and caught myself of the small table by the door.
With no answer from Zack, moved around his still body to see what he was staring at. He was looking directly into the bed room where there was one kind sized bed. The colour drained from my face as realisation dawned on me that it was the only bedroom. At that point even Zach looked uncomfortable now, all his cocky confidence from earlier gone.
"Umm Zach...?"
