"Ugh." I groaned as I sat up in my bed. I turned to the clock nearby. 5'OClock. I sighed and picked up my phone from the desk.
'New Message from Zach'
I smiled but the instantly frowned remembering that this was a different Zach.
This was the engaged version of Zach.
Engaged to Macey McHenry
I opened the message. 'Hey, meet me at Roseville Park in an hour.'
I thought about it for a minute, 'Why should I even go? Maybe it's not even Zach…' but then I shrugged and got out of bed to go get changed and be on my way.
~Time Skip~
"Hey, I didn't expect you to show up." Zach said as he stood up from the bench and walked toward me.
I stopped in front of him and nodded my head a bit, "Yeah, well I almost didn't come."
"Well, I'm glad you did." He then chuckled which earned a confused look from me. "It's funny. I'm pretty sure I'm spending more time with you then I actually am with Macey."
I frowned at the mention of his name and Zach just looked down. When he finally looked up he turned the other way, looked at me, and asked, "Care to go on a walk?"
I smiled a bit and nodded. As we walked I couldn't help but voice out what I'm sure was on both of our minds, "This is how it should be." I stopped and so did he. "Us. We should be together. We should be that couple that everyone looks at and is just insanely jealous of. And, call me clichéd or a romantic but we were supposed to have the happy fairytale ending. I was supposed to have it with you. The ending." I turned to him and just stared into his green eyes. Love was all I saw in them.
"Yeah, and I wasn't supposed to sleep with Macey." He said softly.
I sighed and looked away, "I'm not going to be a home wrecker. This uhm… this should stop. Us. You need to focus on Macey and I need to focus-"
"On Jimmy." He grumbled, glaring at the floor.
I sighed and looked down, "No, I'll just find someone else."
"Here is the thing, Gallagher Girl. I don't want you to find someone else. And you know what, you can try all you want but you know you won't find someone. Or at least I know I won't. I am in love with you, Cameron Ann Morgan. And I hate myself for what I've done. I hate that now I have to say, you were the one that got away." He said, every word sounding more determined each time. "I'm sorry I did what I did, believe me, I wish I could take it back."
"But, here's the thing Zach. You can't. You know you can't. She's pregnant for crying out loud!" I exclaimed.
"The only reason I did was cause I was drunk. I thought you were dead, Cammie. Dead. Do you have any clue how much of an impact that had on me. I was depressed. I couldn't think clearly. How was I supposed to know you were still alive? You ran away, without me."
"Ha, oh don't you dare blame this on me Zach! This is all your-" but I never got to finish that sentence cause I suddenly felt a pair of lips covering mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and put my fingers through his hair. I missed that feeling. I then felt him put his arms around my waist and bring me closer to him, deepening the kiss.
After a minute or two he pulled away from me, panting and said, "Now, tell me again how you're going to find someone else. Tell me again how we can't happen. Tell me how that kiss right now was not just perfect. How it felt right. We belong together Cameron Ann Morgan." He then looked into my eyes, searching for something. "I can't let go of you, Cammie." He bit his lip and then sighed, shaking his head. "I won't do it. I won't get married to her. Of course I will take care of our kid, but no. I'm not getting married to her. I need you, Gallagher Girl." He said softly. He then cupped one of my cheeks with his hand and leaned in, pressing his lips to mine.
