CPOV

I slipped out of my room quietly, so that I wouldn't run into Zach. Unfortunately, my luck with this boy stinks. Right when I turned the corner, I bumped into him. Literally. He was smirking that stupid, playful smirk of his.

"Somebody's in a rush this morning" he said. I raised my eyebrows.

"At least I'm not stalking anyone" I countered. He laughed. Ugh, sometimes I don't know why I talk to him.

"I have a surprise for you" he said, suddenly. I narrowed my eyes, trying to see what he was trying to do.

"What?"

"Come on. Close your eyes." I did as I was told and he walked behind me and placed his hands on my eyes. Its not like I was planning on peeking...ok. Maybe I was.

He led me down the stairs, through several corridors, and around corners. When we finally stopped, I tried to move his hands.

"No peeking" he whispered in my ear. I got goosebumps.

I stood there for about two minutes before the hands came off and I opened my eyes and screamed. Bex, Macey, and Liz were all standing in front of me. They laughed and ran at me for hugs.

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked when we calmed down. Macey shrugged.

"Your boyfriend thought it would make you happyif we came early, and I didn't wanna wait" she said.

"He is NOT my boyfriend!" I shouted.

She laughed. "Calm down, gosh. Don't be so serious."

We headed for the room, but someone grabbed my arm and held me back. I spun around and raised my eyebrows at Zach.

"Wait for a second" he said. I let my friends unpack without me and turned to Zach. I leaned aainst the wall and hd stepped closer. And closer.

"So, did you have something to tell me?" I asked. He smirked. I'm really getting ready to slap that ssmirk off his face.

"Can't a guy talk to his girlfriend alone?" he teased. I raised my eyebrows.

"Oh, so I'm your girlfriend now?"

He smirked, AGAIN. I. Am. Going. To. Kill. Him.

"I would have asked you sooner, but I figured this would be more fun. And safer."

"Safer?"

"If I asked you sooner, you might have thrown me out a window or something" he shrugged. Hm...so he knows me pretty well. He continued, "Not that I would let you." I slapped him on the arm and bit back a laugh.

"Don't get cocky, Goode."

"You know you love me."

"Yeah, whatever."

"So it's true?" He was grinning like a complete idiot.

"No. Now, if you'll excuse me." I started to walk off in the direction of my room, but turned around and called to him.

"And yes. I will" I said.

"What?" He looked confused.

"I'll be your girlfriend" I said simply and left. I could feel him staring, and when I turned the corner, I could have sworn I saw him smiling out of the corner of my eye.

I opened the door to the room and stepped in quietly. My roommates were already unpacked.

"So, what are we gonna do now?" Macey asked. Bex grinned.

"We NEED to go shopping."

I groaned as they started planning everything out. Even LIZ was helping them plan the day. They didn't notice when I slipped out of the room. They did, however, hear me scream as someone grabbed me from behind.

Ooh, a cliffy! I'm sorry for the super short chapter, but I wanted to put you all in suspense. Don't worry. I'm already writing the next chapter and I might upload it TODAY! Thanks, and REVIEW!

If you want me to update, review. Let's try to reach 20.

If you HATE author's notes as much as I do, review to keep me from putting them in here.

If you want me to just go back to writing the story, REVIEW!

Forever and Always,

Me
