~~~CAMMIE'S POV~~~
Zach. I had to find him and explain, well, everything.
I searched the halls of Gallagher for a few minutes until I decided to check the passageways. Eventually, I reached the one I had shown Zach a few months ago. It was our special spot. I don't think anyone else knows of it.
That's where I found him, sitting against a wall, staring absently in front of himself.
I sat next to him and crossed my legs. 'Hey, Zach.'
'Cam.' He nodded, not looking at me.
'I saw you today, looking at me from the store.'
He didn't respond.
'Look, Zach, I'm really sorry. I just find it hard to say no. It's okay, though, because Josh has left now for the rest of his tour, so I can be with you now.' I brightened up at the end of saying this, and Zach at least looked at me.
'You kissed him. Again.' He said, a little sad.
'Well, actually, he kissed me. And I pushed him away.' I corrected. 'By the way, thanks for telling those girls Josh was in the park. You're a life saver!'
You see, Zach had stayed around, and pointed Josh out to the girls who then mobbed him and gave me a good excuse not to have to kiss him anymore.
He smirked. 'Anytime.' At least he was slightly happier now. 'so what did you and Jimmy talk about for so long?'
'Well, mainly him. His concert, his tour, his competition.' I laughed. 'It was actually kind of boring.' I admitted, and Zach smirked again.
We spent a little longer sitting there side by side, just talking.
'So is it official now?' Zach asked during a moment of silence.
'Hmm?' I asked.
'That we're dating. Can we tell people now?'
'Well, yea, but don't you want to keep it a secret for a little longer? It'd be funny!'
He agreed, so he walked out the normal exit of the passageway, and I left via a different passageway.
I went back to my dorm and was immediately bombarded with questions by my roommates.
'Where'd you go?'
'Did he kiss you again?'
'What happened to your hair?'
'Are you and Josh official?'
'What does Zach think?'
I recoiled from the shock of it all, but then replied in order of the questions. 'To a café in town, and the park. Well, yea, kind of. Secret passageways? No!'
I lingered for a moment longer, thinking about what Zach thought, before whispering. 'I don't know.'
I was then forced to explain the whole day in detail. I left out seeing Zach in the shop and the passageway, but told the rest with more or less truth.
After a chorus of 'awwwws' and a 'that's so cute,' I was finally left to myself.
Liz was playing around on her laptop, Macey was filing her nails and reading a magazine (big surprise there), and Bex was laying on her bed with her iPod on.
I had a quick shower and changed into a pair of black shorts, which had white stitching, and a cream hoodie. I sat on my bed and pulled out my C&A homework on how to greet people formally in different countries.
After a few minutes of silence, I heard a slight gasp escape Liz's mouth and she turned and looked at me, wide eyed. 'Uh, Cammie?'
'Mmmmm?'
'Come here for a second?' she sounded worried.
I jumped off my bed and stood behind her, looking over her shoulder at her laptop.
My face dropped and I let out an audible groan.
Macey and Bex came over as well. They both gasped as well.
There, filling the whole screen was a shot of Josh and I walking through the park and another one of Josh and I under the tree, kissing.
I glanced up at the URL bar and saw that it was from a celebrity gossip site. Liz stood up and I took her place on the chair. I scrolled down and saw a short article about the pictures.
New girl for Abrams?
Teen singing sensation, Josh Abrams, was sighted earlier today at a park in the small town of Roseville, where he performed at Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women last night.
He was sighted at the park with a teenaged girl, believed to be a student at either Gallagher Academy or Roseville High School.
We have tried contacting Abrams about the topic, with no success. His agent answered every time, explaining that the famous singer was currently travelling to his next stop on his tour.
So, all we know for now is that Josh Abrams may have a new girlfriend!
Check for more Josh Abrams updates in the near future.
These exclusive pictures were sent to by an anonymous reader, along with today's date, the time and place they were taken.
Looking at the picture, I groaned again. I jumped up and ran out of the room. I went to the closest secret passageway and hid in it. I leant with my back against the wall, before sliding down in a sitting position. I hugged my knees to my chest, and just sat there, not moving, not thinking.
~~~ZACH'S POV~~~
I walked to Cammie's room and knocked on the door, hoping she would answer.
Bex pulled open the door and I asked for Cammie.
'Uh, well, good luck finding her!' she called, before closing the door in my face.
I wondered what gave her that attitude, but I walked off to find Cammie. As I was walking down the hall, I heard a few laughs and angry, and frustrated yells from one of the dorm rooms. I stopped in front of their door and listened through it.
'I told you! Didn't I tell you! I knew something was up with Cammie and Josh!' I heard a voice yell. It sounded like Tina Walters, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
Someone yelled back an angry response, but it was kind of muffled through the doors.
Oh well, it seems the Cammie and Josh thing had gotten around.
I searched for Cammie for what felt like hours. I went through every secret passage I knew of, and practically every room in the mansion, to no avail.
~~~CAMMIE'S POV~~~
I jumped at the sound of someone's footsteps in the passage.
