Hi everyone, I've still got a bit of writers block but a big thanks to . 14, who helped a lot so I dedicate this chapter to you!
Enjoy...
It was dinner time and we were all in the Great Hall. I was trying to eat my food but I couldn't, I felt someone's eyes on me...it was Preston's. To be honest he had been acting a little strange around me. It was making me feel uncomfortable so I got up and announced I was full and walked out the hall. Half way up that corridor I heard the hall doors open, thinking it was Zach I said, "Hey, you're probably wondering why I walked out huh?" but I turned around to see Preston. "Oh, hi Preston."
"Hello Cammie. I'm guessing you left the table for the same reason I did" he said, studying me.
"No, I left because you kept looking at me. You made it really awkward." I sighed, shaking my head.
"It's not my fault Cam, it just reminded me of what happened in Italy" he said looking into my eyes. What had happened in Italy? I'm sure he knew I have a boyfriend, I mean I admitted to loving Zach in Italy!
"Preston, I have no idea what you are talking about" I said walking away to my room, I was almost near the stairs when Preston grabbed my arm, I shoved him away.
"Don't you remember? We went to that restaurant and had a meal and talked? It was kinda like a date" he smiled, thinking that it was okay.
"Listen Preston, I don't remember anything about Italy, okay? If you knew I loved Zach, then why would you do that?" I shouted. I was angry, confused and shocked, all at the same time.
"No Cammie, you said you weren't sure you loved Zach!" he counted, getting angry himself.
"Well get this into your brain, I love Zach, always have, always will! And if you ever do something to break us up, I will hurt you!" I said, slowly. Making sure he heard and understood every single word I'd said. I just shook my head and then walked to my room, leaving Preston in the hall way.
"But I like you Cam!" he shouted.
I stood over the banister and shouted back, "Too bad!"
Zach's POV:
After Cammie and Preston's departure I felt like there was something I should know. I finished my dinner, and walked out saying I was going to the P.E barn, I think Bex said something about meeting me there but I wasn't listening. The doors were half open, so I slipped through and stayed in the shadows listening on their conversation.
"Preston, I have no idea what you are talking about" said Cammie, she tried to walk away but Preston caught her arm, she shoved him away... hard.
"Don't you remember? We went to that restaurant and had a meal and talked? It was kinda like a date" he said smiling. I could feel my anger rising inside me. He took my Gallagher Girl on a date? But I wasn't just feeling anger, I was feeling...jealousy? He'd took Cammie on a date, the only dates Cammie and I wen on were study dates. I wanted to give Cammie everything, dates, diamonds, anything she wanted. I looked to floor, and then I looked at Cammie, her face slowly turning red with anger.
"Listen Preston, I don't remember anything about Italy, okay? If you knew I loved Zach, then why would you do that?" she shouted, Cammie's cute when she's angry!
"No Cammie, you said you weren't sure you loved Zach!" okay that hurt. I wasn't sure what to believe. Preston told me that Cammie told him that she loved me (if you get what I mean). But now he's saying something else?
"Well get this into your brain, I love Zach, always have, always will! And if you ever do something to break us up, I will hurt you!" that's my Gallagher Girl! Of course she loved me, Preston was just twisting words to try and get his way. Cammie began walking to her room, when she was at the top of the stairs; Preston shouted to Cammie that he liked her. You know what Cammie's reply was? "Too bad!" and she walked into her room.
Preston sighed and then walked back to our room. I watched him walk in and had an urge to go in there and punch him, but I didn't. I followed Cammie to her room and knocked.
Cammie's POV:
I seriously couldn't believe what had just happened! Preston liked me? I know we had gotten closer in Italy and he had helped me but, nothing happened. I'm in love with Zach! I don't care if he can't take me out on fancy dates and give me everything; because he already gave me the best thing... he gave me his heart. I sighed and layed on my bed, but someone knocked the door. I assumed it was Preston. I opened the door and saw Zach, my Zach, with his muscular body, handsome face with gorgeous green eyes, how could I not love him.
"Hey Gallagher Girl, look I was wondering-" he started but I cut him off with a kiss. I wanted to make sure he knew that I loved him. He started to kiss me back and put his arms around my waist, while mine were on his neck. We started to walk into my room still kissing. He shut the door behind him and walked forwards, with me walking backwards. I had my eyes closed so I never realised my bed was there until we fell with Zach on top of me. Our lips parted as we smiled at each other. Zach rolled over so that I was on top of him; he had his hands on my back.
"I already know Gallagher Girl, about Preston" his smile slowly faded.
"I'm sorry! I didn't know what had happened in Italy but I do love you Zach." I hadn't realised I was crying until Zach had sat up with me on his lap while he wiped away the tears.
"Shh, it's okay Cammie. I know, I heard the whole conversation." He smirked at me and then added, "Did you know you look cute when you're angry? Don't worry Gallagher Girl, an idiot like Preston cannot get in the way of our love." He finished drying my tears and then kissed my forehead. I stayed in his arms for a long time until we heard my roommates coming.
"I wish I could stay with you tonight" I sighed leaning into Zach ad he nuzzled my neck and planted kisses down to my not-to-visible cleavage.
"Why don't you? I want you with me and we can show Preston we're serious about each other" he looked down to me and smirked. I know he loved the idea of making Preston jealous.
"Okay, let me just get changed" I said as Bex, Macey and Liz walked in, doing their staring again. Zach stood up and I slid off of his lap, my skirt flipped up and little and Zach smirked.
"You could always get changed in my room?" asked Zach as he walked out.
"Where are you going Cam?" questioned Bex, raising her eye brow looking from me to Zach.
"I'm going to Zach's room" I said nonchalantly. Bex just smiled and got her own night-clothes.
"It's also Preston's room. You guys better not do anything!" warned Macey as he slid into bed.
"Oh Macey, don't you trust me?" I tried my own little smirk which made Liz ad Bex laugh.
"No Cam, you I trust. Zach, I'm not so sure about" she said looking me up and down. I laughed, said good-night and then walked to Zach (and Preston's) room. I knocked once and Zach opened to door wearing pyjama pants and no shirt again. I bit my lip, and walked in holding Zach's hand. He sat on his bed and patted a space on his lap for me to sit. He pulled me over and gave me a hug before kissing me. We were kissing non-stop, each kiss becoming deeper until we were in the same position the last time we kissed in Zach's room. But this time when Preston cane in from the bath room we continued kissing until we were out of breath.
"Come on Gallagher Girl, it's time for lights out" Zach smirked and then walked to the door.
"Wait, where's Cammie staying?" asked Preston looking from Zach to me confused.
"My girl is staying with me of course. Don't worry we won't start until we know you're fully asleep" said Zach winking at me. I could tell he was playing it cool with Preston, pretending he didn't hear our conversation.
"Oh" said Preston. Zach and I shared quiet laughing before sliding into bed ourselves.
Zach and I talked a lot before actually sleeping. He had one arm around my shoulder and the other holing my hand. We learned a lot of normal things about each other. Like favourite colours, bands and books. It felt normal, just two people in love, finding a lot about each other. We told each other our hopes, dreams and fears. I found myself falling asleep to the voice of Zach telling me all the reasons why he loved me:
You are beautiful
You make me happy
You are my everything
Without you I don't know where I would be
You are an amazing spy
I love everything about you
You make me laugh and smile
I love your stubbornness
You are beautiful
I just plain love you
There you go, what do you think? Was it goode? Was it bad? Please review, I would appreciate it, even if it's one word!
