There is a bit of a heated scene I will mark where it starts and ends if you feel uncomfortable, I don't find it that bad but some other's might so please respect that.
Also longer chapter whoop!
After Zach and I had calmed down we had joined the gang again and they gave us knowing glances about our disappearance, it was an hour later and being this close to Zach but not being able to touch him was making me get a headache. All I could think about was that kiss. It was the type of kiss that made you think the whole world had shaken because of it.
As the night grew to an end and we started getting nearer our curfew's we started heading back to the carpark, "Do you want us to give you a lift home?" Macey asked as her and Bex got into her small Fiat.
"No you're okay; Zach's giving me a ride." I wasn't going to tell them we were going back to his but they smirked and giggled regardless.
As they hopped in Macey rolled down her window and shouted out, "Have fun and use protection."
I flushed with embarrassment as the Grant and Nick both slapped Zach on the back laughing as they got in Nick's car, Adam went home with the brunette an hour ago. I walked over to Zach and he handed me a helmet, "You sure you're okay coming back to mine? I'll understand if you've changed your mind." Grabbing the helmet I pecked him on the lips smiling.
"Come on, an hour wait was long enough." Smirking he got on the bike and I swung my leg over to join him as I wrapped my arms around his waist.
As we neared his house I began to feel nervous, this felt too planned, we hadn't explicitly said we were going to go all the way but it was on the cards. I wanted to and I think Zach did, but I didn't want to mess it up like the other night. But I didn't have long to think about it before Zach parked his bike in his garage and took my helmet off me and put it on the shelf next to his.
Helping me off he stood in front of me and lightly touched my cheek, "You okay?" I smiled and nodded then he grabbed my hand and walked me from the garage into the side door towards the kitchen.
Once we were in his room I felt a bit on edge, "Is your brother not home?"
Zach was kicking his shoes off so I thought I should follow in suit, "No, he's staying at his girlfriend's tonight." I nodded and then Zach turned to face me. "We don't have to do anything you don't want to you know, I didn't invite you here with that in mind. I just like spending time with you, including just sleeping next to you."
His voice was so calm and relaxing and suddenly I didn't feel as nervous. I walked over to him as he stood in the middle of the room; I placed one hand on his waist and the other onto his neck as I pulled his lips to meet mine. He wasn't that much taller than me so he didn't have to bend down that much. It was soft and slow kisses at first, taking our time as we got into the rhythm of things.
Moving his hands from his side he placed one onto the nape of my neck tilting it backwards so he had easier access to my lips, as he did this he traced his tongue across my bottom one before putting it into my mouth. His tongue pressed against mine and I moved my arms so they were around his neck and pulling him closer to me.
Although he was kissing me hard and hungrily, his movements were slow and careful. I didn't know whether he was nervous since this was his first time or if he just wanted to treat me this way. Slowly walking me until my back was against his closed door he ran his hands from my neck down my sides, one of them going under my top and resting on the small of my back. My fingers were digging through his hair and across his shoulders.
Softly he began tugging at the hem of my shirt and I pulled my lips from his and grabbed the bottom of my shirt and pulled it over my head. His hands met my bare waist and his fingers dug into the skin, I felt like my body was on fire. Without having to hint to Zach he pulled his own shirt off and then his naked chest was pushed against my bra covered one. I felt all the air fall out of my lungs and felt dizzy as his scent filled my scenes.
I realised then that I had to tell him, placing his face in my hands I pulled his lips from mine. Looking at his face I couldn't help but grin, his eyes were glossy and his lips red and the curls of his normally messy hair were falling onto his forehead. "I need to tell you something." My voice was breathless, our bodies still pressed against one another.
Gulping Zach nodded, "Is everything okay?"
I smiled at him, "Everything's great but I need to tell you this," I smiled at him and brushed the curls from his forehead, "I think I love you, no I know I do. I love you."
He was silent for a bit I knew I had blown it, but then he pressed his lips on mine hard, "I love you too." He muttered against my lips before kissing them again, this time around it wasn't as careful there was a sudden need now we had both confessed the truth.
Pushing against his chest Zach stepped back until the back of his knees met his mattress, I began kissing his neck and he then fell back against the bed and lay back. My kisses moved from his jaw down his neck until they were across his chest, my knees were on both sides of his legs as I straddled him and he held onto my waist.
Kissing him on the lips again things quickly got heated. Feeling this much of his flesh against me in one moment made my whole world spin, as he unclasped my bra and my naked chest was against his I thought I was going to pass out. Fiddling with the button of his jeans Zach eventually pulled them off and I got my bottoms off which was hard from my shaking hands, I was laying on my back and Zach was hovering over me looking intently at my face.
I expected his eyes to travel across my naked body with nothing but a pair of black pants on but he didn't he just stared deep into my eyes like I was the only thing worth looking at in the whole world, he softly kissed my lips and then with his fingers combed my hair back from my face. "I love you." Then I reached out for his face and pressed my mouth on his kissing him hard.
I woke up the next morning feeling a happiness I hadn't felt in a long time. The sun was filling up the room from us forgetting to shut the curtains last night; I glanced at the alarm clock to see it was nearly midday. We were up pretty late last night. Noticing that Zach must have gone downstairs and from the smell of food coming up the stairs I got out of his bed, grabbing the shirt he wore yesterday and then randomly picking a drawer and happy that it was the right one I grabbed a pair of his boxers and put them on.
Checking my reflection I ran my fingers through my hair to tame it and then washed my face and the makeup off I had on yesterday. Making my way out of Zach's room and downstairs I saw him sitting at the kitchen table on his phone as he sipped a very milky looking coffee, "You really need to learn how to drink your coffee black."
He looked up and smirked when he saw me, "Morning, nice clothes." I blushed but didn't make any comment that would probably just embarrass me further. I stood next to him and he snaked his arm around my waist until eventually I had no other option but to sit on his lap. "I was going to wake you up but I would rather you have as much sleep as you can."
I smiled at him and kissed him softly on the lips, "So, last night." Zach blushed slightly and I felt myself do the same, "Did you enjoy it, like was it what you expected or did I shatter you dreams on what sex is like?" I realised I was rambling but I didn't really care, I wasn't as embarrassed as I would be with anyone else.
Zach smiled at me and smoothed his hand across my hair, "Yes I did enjoy it, very much so, it was even more than I expected." Laughing I leaned in to kiss him, it quickly turned heated as he pulled me against him and I ran my tongue along his lower lip. As our tongues pressed against one another a voice broke through the room.
"You do realise we eat there?" I pulled away from Zach and turned to see an older version of him standing by the oven with a smirk on his lips. "Hey bro, see you've been making good use of the empty house."
Blushing like mad I dug my face in the crook of Zach's neck as I still sat on his lap and he laughed at me rubbing his thumb against my bare thigh. "Morning Dean, how's Lexi?" Zach asked and I eventually moved my head from his neck and turned to his brother, Dean.
"She's good, got that job she applied for so she's pretty ecstatic about that. But enough about me, who's this cute blonde?" His voice was teasing Zach and by the way his cheeks heated I would say Dean was doing a good job.
Zach lifted me from his lap and I stood next to him as he poured me a mug of black coffee, "Dean this is Cammie she's my…" He trailed off; we hadn't really discussed our relationship label even though we had both said 'I love you'.
Deciding to save him I leaned over and shook Dean's hand, "Lovely to meet you Dean." Zach sighed softly and wrapped his arm around my waist so I was against him and I felt his lips on my head, "Cool top." I stated as I saw he had on a vintage Rolling Stones top.
Dean looked down at his top, "Yeah, you a fan of the Rolling Stones?" I nodded as I sipped my coffee, "Zach I like her, I think we can keep her." Laughing he poured himself a coffee.
"Wow thanks so much bro I'm so happy now I have your approval." Zach shouted back sarcastically as Dean left the kitchen and said goodbye as he went upstairs. "What do you want to do today?" Zach asked as I turned around to face him again.
"I should probably show my face at home, and I need to do some training since I've got that big competition in two weeks." Zach nodded.
"Do you want me to stay with you while you're at home?" I shook my head, "Okay well lets go get changed and I'll drop you off back home."
Zach parked his bike outside of my apartment block and after about five minutes of arguing I finally won so he couldn't come up with me, even though I really wanted him too, "Babe please just go home and stop worrying about me I'll be fine."
His green eyes turned serious and then he grabbed my waist in his hands, "Cammie for as long as you are in the same building as that man I will be worrying about you." Sighing I just nodded and looked down at our feet as they touched one another. "Can I ask you something?" I looked up at him and then a pool of worry filled me when I saw the nervousness on his face, "Would you like to go on a date with me? I know we're doing things in the complete wrong order but the only 'date' thing we've done is 1AM coffee."
Smirking at him and leaned up and kissed him, "Of course I'll go on a date with you." Then pulling him closer towards me I kissed him harder needing this feeling to last till I got into the apartment, "Right I should go, I love you."
Zach sighed and rubbed his thumb over my cheekbone with one hand and his other was on the small of my back, "I love you too." Giving him one last kiss and handing over my helmet I made my way towards the elevator.
When I stepped inside the house I walked into the living room to see my mum and dad sitting on the sofa watching the television, "I'm back."
My mum looked up at me, "Where've you been honey? We called Bex and Macey and they both said you were at theirs so I know at least one of them is lying."
I sighed and sat on the love seat away from them, "Yeah I wasn't at either of theirs I was at Zach's again."
My mum raised her eyebrows and I felt my cheeks redden but before she could say anything my dad did, "Look Cammie I know I've been away for a while but I want to make some rules, I am your dad after all," I scoffed and my mum looked disapprovingly at me while my dad glared with disgust, "Rule number one being you treat me with some respect, the second rule is no staying over at boy's houses and no boys in your room."
I rolled my eyes at him, "I'm seventeen I think I'm older enough to have a boy in my room."
"You are still my daughter and until you're eighteen you'll live by my rules." He was angry and he was playing the doting father card which was really pissing me off.
"Can I just refresh your memory? You have been in jail for a year, we lost everything to save your pathetic ass form getting a longer sentence than you did also you can't come back and expect to it to be just the same. Mum and I have a system, you may be back but you can't just start dictating rules as if you never left." Without waiting for his response I went to my room slamming my door behind me.
Calming down I put my phone on charge since it died last night and put a record on, then getting my books out I began doing some homework. About half an hour later I heard a knock on my door and my mum asking to come in. Telling her she could she come inside and I turned my music down as she sat on the edge of my bed and I turned to face her.
"Baby please don't test him. He's got a bit of a short fuse, I think he's trying to make up for the year he lost, I know you're angry at him and I am not asking you to forgive him right this second but please try." Her voice was soft and I could tell she had been shouting, I mustn't have heard it over my music.
"I am trying mum, but he's making it really hard. We didn't even think we'd have a home at one point because of him and now he thinks he can just control my life."
"I've told him he was out of order and he is going to have to earn your trust before he can make any sort of rules." We were silent for a moment and my phone lit up beside my mum with a text from Zach, glancing at it and then smirking at my red face. "So Zach?"
"Mum!" I whined as I buried my face in my hands but she just laughed at me, "We are seeing each other I guess, he asked me out on a date after dropping me off here this morning."
My mum squealed, "That's so exciting! But I do need to ask as your mother, have you two you know done it yet?" I didn't want to lie to my mum but I didn't really want to tell her the truth either.
"No we haven't done it."
This was never a conversation you want to have with your mother so you can understand that I'm not at all exaggerating when I say that I thought I was actually going to die. My mum just sat bent over holding her sides as she laughed then eventually after I whined at her she stood up and left me alone to die.
After about three hours of doing homework and texting Zach my mum called me for dinner, this was going to be fun. I sat at the table in my usual spot as my mum put some chicken stir fry on my plate and then on my dad's and then finally her own. I grabbed some Chinese dumplings and my mum did the same thing as my dad looked at us carefully.
For a moment I felt sorry for him, we had a routine and he had to now try and see where he could fit into it. But the moment didn't last long when I remembered his arm on my throat.
"What time are you getting up tomorrow?" My mum asked and I looked at her.
"I have practise at six so probably about five, why?" I asked.
"So I can get up and give you a lift."
"No its okay Bex is giving me one." My mum nodded and my dad decided to speak up.
"What sport do you play Cammie?" I glanced at him and met his eyes.
Taking a sip of my drink, "I'm on the track team, we have state championships in two weeks so we have to get as much training in as possible. I'll be doing the 100m, hurdles and relay." I answered and I saw his eye brows raise in surprise.
"Wow you must be really good."
My mum smiled and nodded, "Oh Matthew she is, the whole team is, and with the amount of training and time they put in they have to be. You should come see her at the championships; they're being hosted at the school this year."
"I wouldn't miss it," My dad answered and I looked up to meet his eyes and I saw that he was telling the truth.
This is the thing with my dad; he has two very polar personalities. One half of him is genuinely trying to be the best dad in the world and the other had no control over his anger or violence. Looking him dead in the eye I replied, "I'd really like it if you came." Then we were silent for the rest of dinner and the night.
The next morning I woke up and packed my gym bag with a pair of black frayed denim Levi shorts and black and white stripped fitted top noting that the temperature was going to be high, then I threw in my converse and wash bag and put on some running shorts and a sports bra and oversized Nike vest and my running trainers before going down stairs.
I grabbed an apple and a half empty carton of orange juice from the fridge before going down stairs to meet Bex to drive to practice. I chucked my bag into the back seat and then joined her in the front as I drank out of my carton of juice. "Morning Bex are you ready for an hour and a half of hell?" I asked with a fake over the top smile on my face.
Bex just groaned and started the car, "So how was your night with Zach?"
I knew they was coming but I was getting really sick of blushing over this boy, "It was fine," Bex raised an eyebrow at my answer, "Okay it was amazing, like literally I didn't realise it could be that good I mean it was only his first time and he like made me… you know… and no one- not even that college guy from that frat party we crashed- has done that."
I sighed and fell back into my seat as Bex stared at me wide eyed, "Christ Cammie talk about too much information!" I started laughing and so did Bex, "No but seriously I'm glad you two are happy, so have you talked about what you are?"
"Erm not exactly but he did ask me out on a date yesterday when he dropped me off so hopefully we'll make it official if it isn't a train wreck." I explained laughing as I finished off my apple and then got out of the car after she parked it and put the core in the bin.
We dropped our stuff off in the changing room lockers and then went out onto the field to do stretches. I was still drinking my juice when I left and as we walked over to the field I heard a loud excited shrill from next to me and I got a shock making me spill my juice all down my front. Looking for who made the noise my eyes landed on Tina; this girl is seriously something else. She is an amazing athlete; is amazing looking has one of the highest GPA in the school and is also the girly-est girl you will ever meet.
"What the hell Tina I wanted to drink my breakfast not wear it." I was angry at her but she didn't really pick up on it, I heard Bex start laughing next to me.
"The football team are practising this morning too, so we get to see them all sweaty and due to the temperature we're going to see some abs." I rolled my eyes at her as I walked over to the point where we were stretching.
"Tina this is a kind of regular thing."
"Yes it is but it doesn't mean I can't get excited about seeing Mr Zach Goode all sweaty and shirtless on a Monday morning, every cloud." She then sighed and stared at Zach as he ran out of the changing rooms laughing with three other boys.
Bex then lost it and stared laughing hysterically making everyone on the field turn to look at us so I emptied out the rest of my juice into her top, she gasped and shut up. "I'm sorry but you have to admit it was funny, you getting covered in juice and then her nearly dying over Zach." I glared at her and then smirked when I saw her wet shirt.
However our Monday morning blues were about to greet us when the booming roar of our coach reached us, "Baxter and Morgan can you please tell me why the hell you decided to turn training into a wet T shirt competition?" We both looked at our coach, he was about thirty years old and a lot of the school had a crush on him. However when you have to get up at this time on Monday mornings the novelty of his looks wears off eventually and you learn to hate him.
"I spilled it." I answered sheepishly.
"Well you can't train in them so take them off, either change or don't." Now some people may think this is inappropriate but we've trained in just sports bras before due to living in Virginia where it can get very hot, so it isn't that weird. And in the end of the day it is just a crop top which is what some people wear to school.
As Bex and I slipped out tops off some guys from the football team standing about two yards from us started whistling, I turned to glare and then I saw Zach standing looking at me with a smirk on his lips and felt my cheeks redden as his eyes wandered.
After training Bex and I showered and then went outside to sit where we usually did, today however we were there before the boys which was a surprise so it was just Macey sitting with her legs resting on a bench tanning. "Morning Mace."
She looked at us and slipped her sunglasses on her head a grin on her pink lips, "Right spill, what happened with you and Zach." Rolling my eyes I told her that we did it but didn't get as excited as I did with Bex but she still told Macey what I told her in the car anyway making Macey nearly fall off her bench laughing. "When's the date?"
I shrugged, "I don't know, probably this weekend. We didn't choose a day or anything."
"Well let us know when you do and Bex and I will tell you what to wear because I don't mean to be rude but you can't wear converse to a restaurant." I laughed at the seriousness of Macey's tone and so did Bex. "Also why did I overhear the football team talking about how great Bex's boobs are when they finished off practice?"
"Oh because Cammie spilled her juice on herself and then I laughed because she did it from Tina gasping at the thought of a sweaty topless Zach so Cammie got pissed and poured the rest of the juice on me. So we had to take out tops off." Bex explained but by the time she was done we were all laughing hysterically at the stupidity of the whole thing, it wasn't even that funny but we were just in one of those moods.
As we sat bent over laughing the boys appeared and Grant and Nick sat between Bex and Macey and then Zach sat next to me, "What's so funny?" Nick asked as he slung his arm over Macey and she sat closer to him.
"They were just filling me in on their little mini food fight before practise." Macey explained.
Zach was next to me and I knew he would have filled in the boys just like I filled the girls in so I was hesitant to sit closer to him, he quickly reacted by wrapping his arms around my waist and placing a quick kiss on my forehead while mumbling "Good morning."
"Yeah we saw Cammie nearly crap herself and spilling juice on herself, quite funny." Grant explained. "So how's the two love birds?" He asked wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. "The only piece of advice I have is to always wear protection, there is nothing quite like a mood killer when you realise you've forgotten."
I groaned in annoyance and embarrassment as Zach just laughed and pulled me against him as I hid my face against his chest.
Well this was long one, I didn't realise it was until I was done. Zammie is going along pretty smoothly, but for how long? I am thinking of maybe doing a Zach POV for one chapter but I don't know if it will fit in with the flow, if you want it say but I might still change my mind.
Sorry for such a late update my wifi decided to break, I'll try and get them more regular.
