AN: As always I am super duper sorry about my horrible updating habits, but really when the only computer in your house that works is your mom's you can't really do much.
WARNING: THERE IS CURSING IN CHAPTER!
Zach POV-
You know, when I signed up for this life I thought it was going to be exciting. This… well, this isn't. Sitting around in some little abandoned passage way is not exactly my idea of exciting, thank you very much, even if Cammie is sitting around with me. I glanced over at Cammie and saw that she was starting to doze off. I kicked her chair lightly but ended up making it fall over. Whoops. Not! What, stop looking at me like that, she totally deserved it. Why do I still feel so crumby about it though? She shot me an annoyed glance as she stood up and brushed off her jeans and righted the chair. I just shrugged and watched as she plopped into the chair, not even pretending to be graceful. It was still early, only 9:00, and Cammie had supposedly left for a night at the clubs and out ago. I was supposedly in Miami taking care of some national secret or another that had fallen into the wrong hands. I groaned, absolutely nothing was happening! I cleared my head; we needed to put Plan B into action.
"Plan B, phase 1" Cammie just nodded as if she had been expecting this, which now that I've thought about it, she probably was. She took out her phone and flipped it open to text Bex. As she closed the phone we both turned towards the speakers, both hoping for the same response.
Liz POV-
"Look at this!" I plopped down next to Bex and somehow managed to knock over the lamp 3 feet away in the process.
"Oopsy daisy" I reached forward to pick up the lamp but Bex swatted my hand away.
"Ignore that, look at this!" She held out her phone in front of my face and I stared at the screen, trying to take the message in without my brain short circuiting in shock. Think he may be my new beau whatcha think? Above was a picture of Josh's best friend, Dillon. My mouth fell and I snatched the phone from Bex's hand. Cammie that's DILLAN, JOSH'S BFF! How drunk are you? I know it may have sounded too harsh, but seriously, Dillon? We didn't have to wait long for Cammie's reply. I am not DRUNK! Anyway, he's better than Zach! I turned to Macey.
"We need to call a meeting." She nodded and Bex took her phone from me to call the guys. We needed to figure out how to tell them.
Cammie POV-
As juvenile as it sounds, after they called the meeting Zach and I actually high fived. The text had worked! We had figured since they were keeping the secret from both of us it was about us, therefore they needed a conversation starter about both of us. I still can't believe it had worked though. We listened as they called Zach's best friends. Both of us were practically at the edge of our seats by the time they told us where the meeting place was.
"We're going to meet in Bex's room." I felt Zach stiffen beside me as Bex continued to talk into her phone.
"Oh shit," he turned towards me, "We didn't plant any bugs there." I smiled my sweetest smile at him.
"You may not have, but I did."
Zach POV-
That smile brought back too many memories for my liking. I froze. On some level in my mind I could tell she was concerned but at the moment I wasn't in the present, I was much too busy reliving the past. Cammie and I going to the movies. Cammie and I going out to dinner, lunch, ice cream, coffee. Cammie and I attending the Yule ball (don't even bother asking how we managed to get in). Me sneaking in to school to see her or her sneaking out to see me.
Someone shaking you by the shoulders to get your attention is not pleasant, let me tell you that.
"What did I miss?" Cammie stared at me, looking deep into my eyes, probably trying to decide whether to figure out what I had been thinking about or just move on, that is, until she realized she was practically on my lap.
"Oh, nothing really, they just got to Bex's room." She tried to play that climbing off of my lap wasn't embarrassing for her, but the blush on her face was telling otherwise. God, she was beautiful when she blushed. Shut up! She betrayed you! For Jimmy of all people!
Grant POV-
"How am I supposed to tell my best friend that the girl that he thought was a lying, slutty bitch, actually isn't? It is a lot harder than it sounds!"
"Well how am I supposed to tell my best friend that the guy she thought abandoned her actually thought she's a lying, slutty bitch? Not exactly the easiest thing to say!"
"I say we just tell them, they both deserve the truth." The whole group nodded at Liz's wise words.
"How about tomorrow after breakfast?" There was a chorus of agreements.
"Good, meeting adjourned"
Cammie POV-
Shock. Surprise. Disbelief. Stupidity. And then shock again. What was going on? Did they mean he didn't actually abandon her? Why would he think she was a slutty bitch? I felt that my mouth had fallen open in shock and I quickly snapped it shut. I turned to Zach just in time to see the same emotions flickering across his own face.
"What in hell's name were they talking about?" I saw his mouth turn into a thin line at my words, for once he wasn't smirking. He had to have heard something I missed, so why was he not talking?
"Well, you cheated on me, and somehow your honeypot friends have managed to convince my best mates otherwise!" DID HE REALLY JUST SAY THAT!?!?
"First of all, my friends are not honeypots, and if you ever call any one of them that again, I will hurt you," That may sound like an empty threat coming from a normal girl my age, but I am most definitely not normal. "And you're a right asshole for even saying that I cheated on you! You're the one that cut off all contact with me! You're the one that chose grocery girl over me!" My chest was heaving, my hair was a mess, and my face was probably red from all my yelling. But, none of this mattered because all that mattered was that I was positively seething.
"Tell the truth for once Cammie! I know you cheated on me with Josh, I saw you!" He had seen me with Josh?
"I haven't talked to Josh since my senior year!"
"Yeah, when you cheated on me!"
"And when was this? Before, or after, you stopped talking to me?"
"Before why do you think I didn't want to talk to you?"
"Maybe you met a girl at the grocery store, how do I know! Besides, the only thing I said to Josh was that we couldn't be together!"
Zach POV-
Click.
I stared at the girl in front of me as she kept ranting. I wasn't listening to the words anymore, just watching how fast her lips were moving and how her hand gestures were getting wider as she got angrier. God, she was beautiful when she was angry. With that thought in my head, I lost a will power I had left. Within seconds Cammie was in my arms and our lips were moving together, just like they used to, but better. I held her closer; I had missed her so much. I felt her arms wrapping themselves around my neck and her hands burying themselves in my hair. She had figured it out too. That's what I had thought, until she pushed me away. It was a girl push, not a spy push, but I let her go all the same.
"No. No. NO! This cannot be happening!"
"Cammie--"
"No stay away from me!" I watched as the girl I loved ran from the room, desperately trying to get away from me. I watched, sadly, heartbroken even, but I let her go.
AN: IS it any good?? Once again, sorry for my awful updating habits, but please review.
