Chapter 3
As they sit there, Zack could feel sweat slowly drip off his forehead as he looked at the TV screen, while Bitsey hovered into his shirt, not wanting to see the tape again. Constance's dead body comes on the screen with Dusty knelt over her, as he says something to the camera. Gale walks out behind the camera and leaves a half a thumb print on the bag that covered Constance's head. Zack watched in horror and now knew why Bitsey wasn't herself the past couple of days. He just couldn't believe it.
"So Gale knew the whole time, and he still sat on death row for six years and let them kill him," Zack managed to get out.
All Bitsey could do was nod her head as her body shook from the memories of the case and the tape. She clung harder to Zack, not wanting to let go.
"Bitsey?" Zack asked.
Bitsey looked up at Zack, who had a look in his eyes, a look that she had never seen. He had softened a little, maybe that was a good thing. When she looked into his eyes, she could feel her heart melt, but she didn't know why. Did she have feeling for Zack? She had been trying to avoid them all this time, but it didn't work; now she didn't care. Their faces were merely inches apart; they could feel each others breath against their lips. Before Bitsey could object, Zack had brushed his lips against hers, but she didn't try to push him away. It deepened as Bitsey put a hand on the back of Zack's head. Zack grabbed her around the waist and deepened it even more has he made his tongue's way from his mouth to hers, and she welcomed the tongue with her own. Bitsey broke the kiss, and looked at Zack trying to read his soul through those intense blue eyes.
"Zack, what are you thinking about?" Bitsey asked never taking her gaze off of his eyes.
"You."
"Why me?"
"Because of what you have been through, why didn't you tell me?" Zack asked as he was trying to read her soul and her heart through her beautiful emerald sapphire eyes.
"I didn't think you cared," she replied as she looked down and became very interested in her hands.
Zack took his finger and lifted Bitsey's head up, forcing her to look into his eyes.
"Bitsey, I have never cared about someone the way I have came to care about you. Being with you through this case has been the best thing that has happened to me. I may have been a little harsh, but I was trying to cover up my feeling for you. Bitsey I really do care about you."
Bitsey could feel the tears well up in her eyes, nobody had ever said that to her. She never thought that she would find someone that would. She looked into Zack's eyes and she could tell that he meant every word he had just said. She didn't say anything back, she just made her ways to his lips and that was all the answer he needed.
