Chapter 5

At home after school that same day, Cammie took out the paper with Zachs' number on. She didn't whether or not she should call him, ughhhhh, so decided to call Macey and ask her, eventhough it seemed pretty obvious what she was going to say, 'Defo! Seriously! He so likes you, and you should go and see what his real side is like' I dialed her number and held the phone to my ear, bracing myself for the conversation.

(Cammie/Macey)

"Hey"
"Hey Mace, what are you doing?"
There was a lot of rustling on Maceys' end of the phone, what was she doing?
"Oh just trying to find my date bag. Anyway! What do you need?"
"Oh right, well lets just say it involves, a number, Zach and todays free period study hall."
"Thats very coded of you, Cam, but I'm afraid I see right through your little guessing game. He asked you out again didn't he? Reminding you of the number he gave you"
"Yep"
Macey laughed, "It's so obvious he likes you, how can you not see it?"
"Because, hes just not the type okay. Besides, Mace, I don't think my mom would approve of a trouble maker- criminal boyfriend, especially so close to leaving for college"
"Puh-lease! Just give ol' Zachy a chance"
"Mac-"
Macey cut her off, clearing from hatching one of her ideas,
"Wait! Wait! How about this? If you go on a date with Zach, and it's all bad, and everything then, I will ask Charlie W, myself personally on a date. But! If you go on the date and its the best night of your life well I win, and lets just say you'll be greeted with a big fat 'I TOLD YOU SO' the day after"
"Catch?"
"None. Only that you have a successful senior year relationship, helped along by yours truely"

"Okay, you've got a deal McHenry"

"Goooood. Now I've got to go, still looking for the bag"

"Wait, hold on"

"Yes Cameron?"

"Why are you looking for your date bag, if your going to ask the boy you LIKE, if I win the deal?"

"Oh right, he already asked me out on a day for tonight, yesterday"

"No fair!-"

But Cammie didn't finish, because Macey hung up, she probably knew what Cammie was going to say, so she ended the call to find her date bag, and continue the conversation with Cammie later on, when the date bag situation was over.

So I guess I'm going to actually go through with this. She dialed the number from the paper, and waited through the multiple rings until Zach answered,
(SAME KEY AS MACEY AND CAMMIES PHONE CALL)

"Yep?" Zach answered, popping the p.
"It's Cammie"
"Ah so you do want to go on a date with me then?" The smirk seemed obvious even through a phone.
"Um"
"Okay, sure. I'll take that as a yes, how about" FAKE PONDER. "Tomorrow night, since it's friday and all"
"Okay"
"Yeah, bye Cameron"
Cammie hung up. Tomorrow to her now, so far was going to be a long, long day.

x*x*x*x*x*x*x*x*x*x*x

"SO! Whens the date?" Macey asked, looping an arm in Cammies, giving her a wink as they walked through the school halls.
"Tonight. What are they all looking at? Do I have something on my face?" Cammie asked, as when they walked through the halls, everyone stared at her when they walked past.
"No, theres nothing on your face"
"Wait, I know. Zach probably told everyone about our date" Cammie rolled her eyes, un doing ever arm from Maceys, picking up speed and walking ahead of her towards the library, probably the only place where people wouldn't care enough to stare at you. Course, this was Zach, everyone would stare, everywhere, Cammie could go to the wall behind the school and there would still be someone there that would look at her.
Why did I ever agree to this? She pushed open the library doors, walking in and to the back, sitting down, out of sight.
"Hiding from someone?"She turned to the voice, Zach stood before her holding a massive book.
"Uh, no"
"Oh come on, I know your probably hiding from all the starers, and before you ask, no I didn't broadcast our date to everyone"
"Then who did?"
He shrugged, sitting down opposite me, and we sat there quietly for a moment, "Hey" She looked up at him, "Do you want to get out of here?"
Eventhough, it was Zach, Cammie had to admit escaping this for a while would be perfect, so she nodded, standing up and following him out the back door of the library, which led to the back of the school.

When they got outside, Zach reached into his pocket, taking out a packet of ciggarettes and a lighter. He took out a ciggarette, putting the top in his mouth, holding it gently with his teeth, putting the packet back in his pocket and raising the lighter to the end of the ciggarette.
"You smoke?" Cammie asked, her eyes wide.
He nodded, lighting it. "Yeah" He shrugged,
Cammie frowned,"Im guessing prision changed you then?" Her face grew soft once again,
He shrugged again, "No. Why would it? I smoked before prision, I do it to drown out the crap in my life and its actually good"
Cammie didn't respond, so Zach continued, "I'm guessing your going to tell me now, that I should stop because it can kill me and all that" he trailed off. Cammie replied with a shake of the head, no. "Nahhh"
He smiled, "Well you are full of surprises yourself." He held the cigarette inbetween his middle fingure and his index fingure, blowing smoke in the opposite direction. "Want to try?" He asked
Cammie shrugged, he handed it to her, and she took a small drag of the cigarette, immediately starting to cough, she tried again, and blew out the smoke just as Zach did. "What do you think?"
"Nice" She replied, sarcastically, he chuckled.
"Come on, I want to show you something" They walked round to the student car park, where Zach led her to his car. "You were allowed your car, after stealing someone elses?"
"Psh Yeah" He nodded, dropping to cigarette down on the ground, and standing on it, before opening the door for her. She nodded, getting into the passenger seat.
He walked round, and climbed in. "Ready?" He smirked.
"Yeah" Cammie nodded.
