A/N: Hello. That's it. Been feeling kinda bad lately. Family problems and such. I'll try my best to update regularly. Have fun reading.
Anna told me that we were allowed
to go to the carnival in town tomorrow.
Want to go together?
I'll meet you in the foyer
-Z
Macey, Bex, Liz and I were seated in a circle around the note. It wasn't the note that scared me; it was Liz and Bex screaming at me for not showing them earlier.
"I showed you guys the moment I got inside the room" I sighed
"You could've ran here!" Bex semi-yelled
"What will we do now?" Liz stood up to pace around the room
"Well, we only have 12 hours and 27 minutes until we're allowed to leave to go to town" Macey said, her face blank, probably scanning my entire wardrobe in her mind and picking an outfit for me to wear
"12 hours! That's barely enough time to properly moisturized, shave, and condition your hair!" Liz said, frantic
"Relax, guys, it's just a casual hang out sort of thing" I said, trying to calm my friends down
"Macey, what does this letter mean?" Bex said, grabbing the letter and shoving it in front of Macey's face
"He wants to go out with Cammie in a controlled environment away from the usual school atmosphere" Macey said, heading to my closet and pulling out a pair of jeans and plain navy blue shirt that hugged my body loosely
"So he wants more excitement for their date?" Liz said as she bit into her pencil
"Exactly. Something out of the norm of this school." Macey said as she hung the clothes she chose in the bathroom
"What's so exciting about a carnival?" Bex asked, it was a good question
"You don't think he knows about—" Liz muttered, but dismissed the idea immediately "No, it's not possible"
"Liz?" I said slowly
"Well, what if he knows about the Josh thing?" Liz bit her lower lip
"That's impossible" Bex said as her eyebrows furrowed and walked to her bed
"It's not exactly impossible, if he has access to restricted CIA files" Macey added, plopping on her bed
"He does know about Josh." I said
"All we can do now is just go to sleep. We can't have Cammie have bags under her eyes" Bex said, covering her blanket over her head.
"I'll prepare the coms and cameras" Liz said, going to her table and opening a desk lamp
I went to my own bed and as soon as my head hit the pillow I was sound asleep.
"CAMMIE" Liz said, rocking me roughly
"5 minutes" I mumbled, half asleep
"Do you want Zach to see you with bed head and drool running down your cheek?" Liz said
"I'M AWAKE" I thrashed and threw the covers off of me.
"Come on, take a bath and we'll start with your make up" Liz said as she pulled me off the bed and pushed me towards the bathroom.
I turned the knob and hot water started spraying on me. A date, what did I just get myself into? I thought to myself. After a few minutes of conditioning my hair and washing my hair, I got a towel and wrapped it around me. I got dressed and walked out, my mind filled with possible situations for my date.
Bex dragged me and forced me to sit on a stool. Macey started applying light foundation on my face as Liz started blow drying my hair.
"Should Cammie wear a cardigan?" Bex asked, lifting up the 6th cardigan piled on her bed
"Yeah, the thin black one I bought during winter break" Macey said, brushing rouge on my cheek
"How should her hair be fixed?" Liz said, combing my hair for the 78th time
"Braid" Macey said, handing me a mirror, showing me her 'master piece' which I call my face.
After almost an hour, Macey, Bex, Liz and I walked to the grand hall to eat breakfast. It was half empty as we sat on our table and started putting food on our plate. I was glad that Zach wasn't there to see my outfit. Oh my gosh, I sound so shallow now, I thought to myself and shook the thought away. I should let myself think like a normal girl from time to time. We went back to our room to do some last minute retouching, and then proceeded to the foyer.
Vans and groups of students were there, waiting for their friends or classmates so they could go to town together. Most of the students were crowding the boys, asking them if they could sit next to them or flirting with them.
"Francis! I know the perfect place for some ice cream, want to go with me?" 7th grade girl cried, I saw Francis cringe a bit, then smile and nod. At exactly 11:31 we were allowed to leave the school grounds.
"Aren't you coming, Cam?" Bex said over her shoulder, Liz and Macey right behind her
"You go ahead, I'll wait for Zach" I said, leaning against the big wooden door.
34 minutes later….
Is he worth waiting for? I thought.
37 minutes later…
Zach wouldn't stand me up I thought, ignoring Bex's plea through my coms to look for him and beat him up.
49 minutes later…
I walked away from the school. I threw my coms unit and necklace camera to a nearby bush. My eyes directed straight to the city, I undid my braid and let my hair fall over my face. Not wanting anyone to see the tears streaming down my cheeks.
A/N: So my birthday is nearing. It's in the middle of July. My wish is that I'd be able to reach 100 reviews by my 10th chapter. I know it's still a long way to go, but I can dream can't I? ahahahahahahahahaha, WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN? Misteryyyy. School's in exactly 2 days so I don't know when I'll update next since it's probably be hectic. Please review!
