Wake Up Zachy: A One-Shot Series
# A Christmas with the Gang #
Chapter 35
A New Year's Eve to Remember
Cammie's POV
Macey left an hour later and I sat waiting for Zach to stir.
He gave a groan as he sat up and I pretended to sleep. I heard him shuffling around and soon enough his hand was in mine, "Oh Cam," his voice said lightly.
I let my eyes flutter open, "Hey."
"You had me worried Gallagher Girl, you know that?" I smiled.
"So I heard." He smiled at me before his face turned grim.
"Did they tell you –"
I cut him off with a quiet, "Yes," and single tear rolled down my check.
"Cam," he mumbled wrapping me up in the arms. "I don't know . . . what are you feeling?"
"I'm not too sure. My . . . our child, child Zach, was killed by a nameless goon before it was even 24 hours old inside me . . . let alone the world. That's . . . crazy to think about to me. It doesn't seem completely real . . . but at the same time it does." I said tears rolling down my face.
"I'm so sorry," he whispered pulling me closer, and I could have sworn that I felt a tear land on my shoulder.

"I don't know what to do, Bex," I sighed running a hand through my hair. "She hasn't been the same. You know that, I know that, she knows that, but she won't admit it. I can't help her if she won't tell me how she feels."
"Zach," she placing a comforting hand on my arm, "I get what your feeling but this is Cam were talking about. She isn't going to tell, especially if she hasn't admitted it to herself yet. How about you just try to take her mind off of it for a little while?"
I smiled, "You may just have something there Rebecca," she glared but made no move to correct me.

"Cameron Anne Morgan," I said walking into our shared room (A/N: they all changed living arrangements after the mission so everyone could be with the guy or girl) "we, are going out. Get dressed in a dress," I said with a wink and handed her a single red rose.
She smiled, but made no question as she went to her closet to find something already picked out by Macey. This will be fun.

She smiled as I took her hand and lead through the crowd of people. The lights were twinkling above us and the little town was partying like now tomorrow.
We stopped near the giant countdown ready to celebrate the New Year. We talked about everything and anything, just like old times.
"Cam," I said glancing at the clock that read 30 seconds. "You know I love you right?" she gave me a weird look before squeaking out an answer.
"Sure?" it sounded more like a question than an answer.
"You're a bad liar for a spy," I said pulling me closer. "I love you," I whispered against her face.
She smiled and watched the clock as it ticked down. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. "I love you too.
3. "Just so you know, Gallagher Girl," 2. "I'm going to kiss you now." 1.
My lips meet hers just as a fire work shot off and the countdown reached zero and I could almost feel her smile against my face.
