Cammie stared back in Zach's eyes, biting her lip, which had just then been kissed by him. Before he'd said those three words. Cammie couldn't fight the grin forming on her lips though, making Zach's serious, yet loving look morph into a smile also.
"I." She began, then her phone rang, making her look at who it was. Macey. "have to take this." She finished off in a rush. "Sorry." She mouthed, answering the phone and holding it to her ear.
"Macey." She said, into it.
"I'm sorry." She apologised to whatever Macey had said.
"No really, Mace. I'm not avoiding you. I could never do that to you, ever." She said.
"I promise. Okay, bye." And she hung up.
When she looked back to where her and Zach were standing moments later, he'd gone. "Crap." She whispered to herself, then just left, walking home.
On the walk home, Cammie thought about Zach. A lot. He said he loved her, and she didn't even have the fucking decency to say anything in return. She did infact love him, even though if you told her she would feel like this now, a month or so before she would think your just insulting her. Zach was different though, she didn't know why she ever judged him, the way she did, because, Zach was sweet, funny, cute, hot, everything good you could ask for in a guy. And she blew it.
She took out her cell again, scrolling through her contacts for Zach. There. She pressed a button, and lifted the phone to her ear. "Please pick up." She pleaded quietly. No answer. But she left a message, hopeful that he might call her back. He probably wouldn't though.
Then again, there was always school tomorrow, she could talk to him there.

Zach felt like a fool. Embarassed. She probably didn't even love him back, probably going to reject him even if Macey didn't call her. He shuffled into the kitchen, where Craig was still clearing up and sat in one of the bar stools alined at the counter.
"Whats up, sport?" Craig asked, glancing over his shoulder, seeing Zach miserably playing with the switch for the blender, which was luckily unplugged.
"I'm an idiot." He said.
"What happened?"
"I told Cammie I love her, and she didn't say anything, at all"
"Aw geez, I'm sorry. Zach" Craig said, turing around from the sink, and leaning against the counter, "What did she get a phone call or something?"
"Yeah, exactly that." Zach nodded.
"So she didn't get a chance to reply then? You went in when she was on the phone didn't you?"
"Well what am I supposed to do? Wait there? She was probably going to reject me anyway."
"You sure about that? Because, what I'd seen when she was here earlier, there are obvious feelings for you from her." Craig told him, moving Zach's hand away from the blender, as the click of the switch had started to annoy him.
"Really?" Zach asked.
"Yeah, It was really obvious actually" Craig shrugged.
"I wasn't as obvious though, right?" Zach asked.
"Keeping telling yourself that, buddy" Craig chuckled, patting Zach's shoulder, then walking off to the living room.

"Hey, Cam." Macey smiled, as she opened her front door, to Cammie who was a little flushed, "You okay?"
"I need to talk to you." She said, then walked into the front room, waiting for Macey.
"Hey Raine." Cammie smiled, waving at Macey's younger sister, then turned back to Macey once Raine had greeted her back.
"Come on, lets go upstairs" Macey said, "Raine, I'll be upstairs" She called to Raine, from the hallway.
"OKAY!" Raine replied, not really paying much attention.
"So what happened?" Macey asked, sitting on her bed, holding a cushion in her lap.
"Well." Cammie started sitting down, crossed-legged on the other side of Macey's bed. "Me and Zach, well, He kissed me." She said.
"WHAT?!" Macey practically screamed, dropping the cushion. "He kissed you? So he like loves you now?"
"He said he does." Cammie nodded, biting her lip.
"Aw, oh my gosh! He so sweet. What did you say?" Macey asked, intruiged.
"I didn't say anything."
"What!?" Macey, asked astonished, "Why?!"
"Because, you called me. So I didn't get a chance to reply" Cammie explained, and Macey gave her a guilty look.
"So, do you love him? You love him back right?" Macey smiled.
"I don't know." Cammie shrugged.
"Hm." Macey then, gave a mischevious grin. "Tell me about him then. Is he really the rebel he makes himself out to be?"
"No hes really not." Cammie said. "He sweet, and funny and caring. Hes just so protective, and jokey. And hes hot" Cammie admited.
"Cam." Macey said.
"Hm?"
"You love him." Macey stated.
"I do." Cammie nodded, "I love him."
"You have to tell him." Macey said.
"I know."
"Call him, meet him." Macey pressed on,
"What about tomorrow at school?"
"Thats a bit public don't you think?"
"I'm not ashamed of him, Mace." Cammie told her, "I can tell him at our place, behind the school."
"Aw Cam your to sweet." Macey grinned widely, "Sounds good!"
Cammie just smiled.
*The next day*
Cammie walked into school quickly that day, rushing straight to the library as that and the back of the school were the only places Zach went to generally.
When she got to library, noone as usual were in the place her and Zach always sit. But, he wasn't there, so she opened the backdoor quietly, stepping out. She looked round, but he wasn't here either.
She took out her phone, and called Zach. No answer. Cammie thought about the places Zach generally went to, then it clicked. She texted Macey quickly letting her know not to wait up for her.
Going to meet Zach. Don't wait up
-C xx
When she got to the field, she noticed Craigs car in the distance. So he took his now did he?
When she got there, she saw Zach through a gap in the branches, and lifted the entry branch gently out, and walked in. Zach didn't look up when she walked in and sat down on one of the tree stumps.
"Hey." She said quietly, fiddling with the bracelet on her wrist.
"Hi." He replied, bluntly.
"I wanted to talk to you." She said.
"Go ahead." He said, still looking at the ground.
"I'm really sorry about what happened yesterday at your house, the phone interuption and everything" She said, apologetically.
"Its fine." He breathed out.
"I also wanted to say something else." She said, then carried on knowing he was listening anyway. "I wanted to tell you that." She paused. "I love you too." She said quietly. Which caused him to lift his head, and look her in the eyes.
He leaned in then, rising a little from his seat and crushing his lips down onto hers. She stood up from the tree stump, still kissing him, wrapping her arms around his neck, as his snaked around her waist. His tongue soon began to trace my bottom lip asking for entrance, and I opened my mouth, his tongue slipping in. Once his tongue left my mouth, we both pulled back for air, both smiling at each other.
"I love you." He said.
"I love you too" I whispered back.
Maybe I should end it here? Hmmmmmmm... What do you think? Any ideas? Anything you want from this story, because this is your chance!
