Chapter 3
(A/N: Thanks guys for the reviews! So this chapter is just a fluff chapter, meaning its Zach's P.O.V on the plane ride over to Iceland. So no action or interesting stuff. You can actually skip this one if you want, you wouldn't be missing anything. It's just a quick short chapter about Zammie.)
P.O.V of Zachary Goode
Cammie is asleep, so is everyone else. I couldn't help but stare at her. Her beautiful eyes were so peaceful; her hair was at its original long length and color. Her hand was gripping mine. I wasn't sure if she was having a nightmare. She wasn't rolling around or wincing in pain. I decided to let her sleep. She's been having nightmares lately though. She will scream in terror, roll off the bed, sleep walk and try to get out of the apartment, and will start gagging as if someone is choking her. Headaches are becoming more common now. I worry about her all the time. I'll try to wake her up, but sometimes it's no good. I'll just have to hold her until she wakes up. Occasionally her cheeks will be tear-stained. And it kills me to watch her go through those horrible nightmares. She will tell me about them if she can remember them. Sometimes they are flashbacks of her summer before senior year, or flashbacks of seeing her father's grave for the first time. Other times they will be about losing her loved ones. She says the worst ones are of when she loses me…those are the ones I can never wake her up from. She says I always die in the same way; from protecting her. I either get in the way of an attack or do a suicide mission to save her. Usually after those kinds of nightmares when she sees my face she'll stroke it, or sometimes poke it to see if I'm actually okay. I try to comfort her, and she tries to stay tough, but I know she is disturbed by these nightmares. They started about 2 months ago, after she went back to Rome to visit her father's grave. She went alone, since no one else was available to go with her. I tried to persuade her to wait, but she said she had to go right at that moment. After the nightmares started I always wondered if something happened to her. After she ran away that one summer and came back a complete different person because she was hypnotized by Dr. Steve, I always felt like it was my fault. I suggested that we runaway together. But she only took half of my advice, and she went without me. Now I can't help but think that she might have got in a situation similar, just not as gruesome, as the last time she went to Rome alone. But she said she remembered every single moment of the trip, and nothing bad happened. Maybe it's just the thought and sight of her father's death has disturbed her.
I look at her again. She was still peaceful, and her grip wasn't as tight. She started to curl up to me, and I held her tighter. My Gallagher Girl I thought as I kept staring at her. I loved her so much. She is the girl I want to be with for the rest of my life. She is the girl I want to have a family with and grow old with. That's why I had a diamond ring in a red ring box in my back pocket ready to go on her left ring finger after this mission.
(A/N: As I said before this is a fluff chapter! So please don't be mad if it was sorta boring. I just thought it would be cute to add and maybe the nightmare parts will become something bigger later on. I would like a couple of reviews on this chapter just to know what others think so please leave a review. Thanks for reading! Back to the action and good stuff in the next chapter!)
