Hey guys! Sorry for the late update, but I kept having trouble with this chapter. I had to re-write five times because it sucked. I hope this one makes it up for the long time I haven't updated! Oh, and now it'll be present tense. One more thing, I re-read all the chapters, and I realized that I said Ana Scott/Martin. Let's just pretend that her whole name is Ana Scott Martin, ok? He-he, sorry…

Cammie POV:

This cafeteria food isn't so bad. After all my classes went by in a blur, lunch finally came. Macey and Bex guided me to their, correction our, table. It has a nice view, but I'm most intimated by the woods. You see, before my dad went missing, he used to take me to the woods with my mom. Oh, how much I miss those times.

"Hey," Zach says interrupting my thoughts. He sits next to me and I say hey back. I notice Ana and Camilla glancing at us, but stopped once Price purposely threw a paper ball at them.

"So, how was your first day?" Zach asks me as I stop looking at Price's table.

I smile, noticing that he's on my right and Liz on my left. "Okay, I guess." I say as I look into his beautiful green eyes… whoa, what?

Across from me on the circular table, Bex grins. "At least she didn't meet Stephen."

"Who's Stephen?" I ask; my thoughts about Zach being broken. Not that it matters…

"Ashley Price's cousin," Grant replies.

Jonas nods. "He's the most annoying kid."

"And captain of the soccer team." Liz adds.

I frown. "Wow, I didn't know you guys have a soccer team."

Macey grins. "That's because it isn't ours."

"What do you mean?" I ask as I take a sip of my orange juice.

"Its part of the Soccer Club, which is part of another school, but most of us use that school as after-school activities." Zach answers.

"So," I say. "It's like a sharing club?"

"School," Liz corrects.

"Wow," I say. We talk about the teachers and how our day was. Macey said how this football player, Lucas, tried to kiss her, but she slapped him. We all laughed, but I swear I saw steam coming out of Nick's ears. Maybe this school year wouldn't be as bad as it seemed.

"So," Bex starts. "What is going on, Zachary?"

We all look at Zach who chokes on his juice and then says, "What do you mean?"

Macey rolls her eyes. "Don't play dumb. We saw Selena, Camilla, and Ana talking to you."

Zach nervously chuckles. "Oh, that." I frown and wonder what could have happened. I mean, it's not like they want something to do with him, right?

Before he could go on, a loud scream is heard. Everyone gets up and we pay our attention to Ashley Rich, who's covered in chocolate milk. Ashley Price stands next to her, arms crossed, with pasta on her hair. "Don't you dare talk about that, Rich," Ashley says with such venom, that I see few people shiver.

"Ah! Look what you did to my clothes!" Rich screams as she gets up and glares at Price.

Price smirks. "Well, you deserved it."

Before any other commotion stars, Principal Stone walks in. "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" He yells. Principal Stone is a tall Latin guy with black hair and eyes like Price's, which is weird and at the same time, familiar. He walks over to Price and Amanda and sighs. "Price, Rich, my office, now!"

They follow him. Before they're out of sight, Rich turns around and says, "Not one word!"

The cafeteria goes silent and then it goes back to the way it was before. I can't help but notice how Zach's eyes are. His eyes show confusement and suspicion as well as sadness. I glance at Price's table and see Ana shaking her head. She turns and starts talking to Maya, this other girl in my English class. I notice Amanda and Amber glaring at Ana, then glaring at the door.

"Wow that was dramatic." Jonas says.

Liz grins. "Way to state the obvious," she says sarcastically.

"Oh, shut up," Jonas says back jokingly. We let them flirt and turn back to our old conversations. I remember how Zach was going to say something, but then I see how he shakes his head at me and I nod. He doesn't want to talk about it now. I see Macey grin and whisper something into Bex's ear as she laughs. Hhmm… what's going on here?

Ashley Price POV:

As we near Principal Stone's office, he says, "Now, you two young ladies have until lunch time is over to get cleaned up and then come to my office."

Rich frowns. "But that's only half an hour!"

"So?" Principal Stone says back that I suppress a grin.

"Ugh!" Rich says before walking off to the girl's bathroom on the right.

Principal Stone sighs and rubs his temple. "Extra clothes are in the second drawer on the left." I nod and walk past him. As I take my clothes out, he walks in and closes the door. He sits behind his desk as I sit down.

"You're getting a week of detention and no art." He says.

I jump up. "What? Why?"

"I don't want to have this conversation again, Ashley."

"But-"

"No buts!" He says with a slight glare.

I bit my bottom lip and say, "At least let me take Art after school."

"No, that would be unfair to Ashley Rich."

"Fine," I say; hating the idea that he would be fair to that whore. "Then let me join the cheerleaders."

I see how his eyes turn from being in control to being trapped. He knows hum much I love art and hate showing skin or flirting with football players. He sighs. "I don't know,"

I sit back down and glare at the floor. "Are you doing this because you're my principal or because you're my father?" I ask in a whisper.

He sighs. "Both,"

"But, please!" I whine as I give him my best puppy eyes.

He takes a deep breath and sighs. "Fine, you can take art."

I get up and grin. "Thanks, Principal Stone."

He grins and rolls his eyes. "Call me Dad."

As I open the door, I turn around and say, "But that would be unfair." My dad laughs and I head to the bathroom to change with a smile on my face. Before I could open the door, I change my mind and walk to the girl's locker rooms. I'd rather take a shower than to meet Miss Rich.

I start to take some pasta off my hair on the way there and throw it in the trash. My brush falls and as I pick it up, someone bumps into me. We both fall and somehow I end on top of the person.

I stare into familiar chocolate eyes and glare. "Let me go, Danny."

Danny smirks and holds me by the waist. "No," I shiver at his touch. But I force myself to be brought back to reality. This is real life, not the fairytale I thought I lived in a summer ago.

I raise an eyebrow. "Wanna bet?" Before he could respond I somehow kick him in a part where boys shouldn't get kicked. As he groans from pain, I quickly get up and pin him to the ground by holding his arms to the side and getting on top of him much to my discomfort. "You were saying?" I ask.

He glares at me. "You don't want to mess with me."

I laugh, showing my amusement. "Oh, really?"

"Yes," he replies. I laugh again and the next second I'm on the ground with him on top of me. "You were saying?"

"Let me go." I say through gritted teeth. He smirks and lets me go. He offers me his hand, but I refuse it.

"See you around, Pasta Girl." He says as I blush of embarrassment.

I glare at him and say, "Alright, Skirt Boy." He blushes and I smirk. Ah, the good old times of embarrassing Danny.

I rapidly walk to the locker room and take a quick shower. I change into my dark jeans and purple tank top with a leather black jacket on top. I put on my black converse and walk out. As I walk out, I hear whispers and I lean next to the wall, which is next to the girl's bathroom. I lean and hear two people speaking.

"Oh, but I don't know. I mean, we could get caught." I recognize the voice as Ashley Rich.

"But come on! Don't you want to get revenge on her?" I hear a familiar voice. I rack my brain to try to remember, but I can't.

"Yeah, but not like this!"

"Ugh! You're going back to being the old Ashley! I thought you said you were changing for good!" Aha! It's none other than Cassia, ex-girlfriend of Danny (I think) and ex-best friend of Ashley Rich.

"And you said you would be with me as a sister forever!"

"Yeah, but I had to break it when you and Amanda started to ignore me and prank me with that witch into believing Danny was cheating on me!" I wince and I swear I can see Rich wince, too. That day was not the best day for me. I was foolish enough into thinking Rich and I could be friends again. But that was in Middle School. I thought Cassia was over it.

"But you got back together!"

"Whatever; are you helping or not? I got few people on my side." What? Who else hates me? I mean, they know people ask for pranks and I make sure that it's at their expense. But then again, I do help them.

I hear Rich sigh. "Okay, but not too harsh!" I hear their footsteps coming and I open the door nearest to me.

I hear them say, "Bye, see you later." I hear Rich's heels going towards my dad's office. I let go a breath I didn't know I was holding and slowly turn the knob, expecting light, but the door doesn't budge. Oh, god. Where am I?

Zach's POV:

After the commotion with Rich and Price, there was no more entertainment. I got the guts to talk to Cammie, and we talked about each other. I learned that her favorite color is now green, but she wouldn't tell me why. When I asked, she slightly blushed and changed the topic. I kept getting distracted with the way her eyes changed emotions. Her brown wavy hair shapes her figure nicely. Not that I notice.

"So, who wants pasta?" Nick jokes as the rest laugh. But I don't. I know Price has her reasons, but this is the third time something like this has happened during the past two months. She doesn't do her pranks for revenge, but just for fun. Plus, she's really nice when she wants to be, and you just can't hate her (well, sometimes). I remember the first time I got here and she was the first Stone Creek girl to greet me…

It was a sunny day. I jumped down from the bus and walked towards the office alone. Grant and the boys weren't here yet. Principal Stone called my mom last night and quickly told her of how I would get enrolled in Stone Creek High School. As I was about to knock on the wooden door, when a girl with really black hair like the night and black/brown eyes came out looking mad.

"No, just no!" She yelled; not realizing that I was in front of her. She turned her head to face me, but it was too late. I stepped out of the way just in time, but I grabbed her by the waist before she could fall, my backpack falling in the process.

"Uh, hi," She said as I let her go and she bent down to pick up my backpack. She gave it to me and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't see you! Even though you were in front of me," She said as an afterthought with a grin and sorry eyes.

I grinned back. "No problem,"

She smiled. "Well, uh, my name is Ashley St- Price."

I raised an eyebrow quizzically, but I said, "I'm Zach Goode." We shook hands.

"So, you seem new around here." She said.

I raised an eyebrow. "But it's freshmen year. Aren't we all supposed to be new?"

She laughed. "Oh, I meant that I never saw you in Middle School, since most of us come here."

I blushed; embarrassed. "Oh,"

She smiled. "Want me to show you around?"

I nodded. "Sure." I got a tour and we joked around a bit. We said bye and during classes, I realized that she was different from any other girl I've met, well besides Cammie, but this was before meeting her. During class, she was serious and silent; eager to learn. But once outside of class, she was like a girl with no care in her life. She seemed to have many friends. I never got another long conversation with her, but we would talk. As the years passed, she grew up and became a jokester. She started to prank more and more. She would especially prank Ashley Rich, but her pranks stopped once she dated Danny.

I snap out of my thoughts as the intercom goes on. "Nick Clement, please report to the Nurse's office."

We all look at Nick with confused expressions. "I don't know anything. See you guys later." We all say bye and watch him walk out the cafeteria, as some teenagers go outside or to the library.

A smile creeps up onto my face as I whisper to Cammie. "Come on, I want to show you something."

She raises an eyebrow; puzzled. "Why?"

"Just come." I say as we leave. I grab her hand and walk out not caring that the rest are smirking or rolling their eyes. I lead her to an old storage room, on the left corner of the girl's bathroom; a few feet away from Principal Stone's office. I glance around.

"So, where is this mystery place?" Cammie asks.

I grin. "You'll see, Gallagher Girl."

She rolls her eyes as I look for a key. Someone stupid made the room be only locked in the inside. "Whatever, Zach,"

I smile and open the door. I turn around, hand still on the door knob, and say, "Too impatient, Gallagher Girl?"

She smiles and shakes her head. "In your dreams,"

I laugh and turn back around. And I see someone with familiar brown/black eyes making out with a certain brown-eyed boy.

O.o

Is it who you think?

Please review!

And ideas are appreciated!

Sorry for bad grammar or spelling mistakes.

I know that some of you might be confused, so here's quick facts:

Principal Stone is Ashley Price's dad

She likes to be called by her mom's last name, rather than her dad's because she doesnt want people to think that she's the favorite or something like that

Price and Rich used to be friends in Middle School *Remember, this is high school, so things have changed

Cassia and Danny used to date

SPOILER:Cassia, Amanda, and Rich were best friends, but then they tricked Price (you'll learn why in the next chapter or two)

SPOILER:Price was very nice and friendly, but changed after an incident which wasnt mentioned, but will in the next chapter

Price and Danny dated O.o

Zach doesnt realize he loves both Price and Cammie

Cammie doesnt realize she's falling for Zach

SPOILER: Something is going to happen to Nick, and Preston is going to appear

And that's all, besides the fact that the people making out are not going to be revealed, so be free to guess!
