Duraturastoria d'amore

(LASTING ROMANCE IN ITALIAN)

Hey guys! Since I'm actually feeling pretty "not lazy", I decided to finish chapter 5. And guess what? I finished it! I hope you guys like it! It's pretty long. :) Enjoy! :D

Oh yeah, FYI, there's a Zammie moment in this chapter. ;) 3

CHAPTER 5

CAMMIE'S POV

Listening to Macey explaining why Bex had gone to Grant's room (which is technically Zach's room too, but, oh well) has made me really nauseous. I never knew Bex would be so much into guys! Considering the fact that she acts like a guy, (don't tell her I told you that) I thought that she wouldn't be crushing on a guy.

"... and when I pretended to wake up, I saw that Bex was leaving with Grant! And I was eavesdropping. I also heard that Grant was bringing her to his room! Wow, Grant is, just wow." Macey continued her story and came to an abrupt halt.

I realized that I didn't want to hear any of her stories. As Macey started to continue, I put my right hand to tell her to stop. I saw the shocked look on her face. I guess she didn't want to push it so she just kept silent and as I started to leave our suite, I heard her whisper something unintelligible. I decided to leave it. I don't want to hear anything she has to say for a while.

Once I was outside of our suite, I started thinking why I was kind of pissed at Macey when she was telling me why Bex was not there. Maybe it's because I'm jealous of her. She managed to woo a Blackthorne guy once this guy arrived. I know that I am able to flatter a guy by just looking at him. But because of Josh, I kind of think that I'm not capable of handling a relationship with a guy anymore. Seeing how my heart was broken after one forbidden relationship, maybe a relationship shouldn't be on my mind right now. Thinking about relationships made me think about Zach. As much as I hate him, he's the only guy who actually made me happy even though I am angry and pissed at him. Is it possible that I am falling in love with Zach? Wow, from love to hate. I take back what I said about me murdering the person responsible for this theory. Maybe, just maybe, because I hate Zach, he's the only one I can't stop thinking about. I have to be honest, I think, I am falling in love with Zachary Goode.

As I made my way to my favourite passageway, I passed by the music room and I heard a guy singing. Wow, he's playing piano and singing! This guy must be really good. Peeking in the room, I saw that the guy was none other than. You guessed it, Zach. And guess what he is singing? Fall for you. I decided not to go to the passageway so instead; I just sat down at the side of the music room, totally hidden. Yeah, being a chameleon does this to me.

You would never believe me when I say this, but maybe you will, but Zach has an amazing voice. When he sang the chorus, I don't know why, but I started to cry. I tried to stop making noises but too late. I made this hiccupping sound. Zach stopped playing the piano and looked around.

"Hello? Who's there?" he demanded.

I decided not to talk because I was really afraid that he would tease me or something because I was crying to his "playing and singing". But have I told you that Zach is an amazing spy as well? No? Well, he is an amazing spy because he found me hiding behind the drum set. Not much of a chameleon now.

"Hey Gallagher Girl. Why are you hiding behind the drum set?" he asked.

"I just, uhm, well, I don't really know," I answered with a really stuttering voice. Why am I stuttering?

"Are you okay? I think you're crying," he said and then he suddenly moved towards me and handed me something. A hankie.

"Here," handing me the hankie, "use this to wipe your tears."

"You know," he said while sitting down beside me, "you're really beautiful but when you cry, it makes you lose that beauty I love so much."

Wait, did he just say he loves my beautiful face? I guess he did because when I turned to stare at him, he has a really serious look on his face.

"Thanks Zach," I replied. I decided not to answer sarcastically since he was being really nice to me.

"You really have a beautiful voice," I commented.

He seems to be really shocked when I told him this but suddenly he showed me his adorable smile that melted my heart the moment he did it.

"Thank you, Cammie. Actually, that song is my favourite song and I've always wanted you to hear it but now I guess you did," he ended up saying with a laugh.

"So, why are you actually crying?" he asked me.

I actually didn't know whether to tell him but I guess I could because he seem really trustworthy and I need someone to talk to right now. And he's the only one available right now. So I started to tell him why.

ZACH'S POV

"Well, when you were singing the chorus, the words hit me really hard. I just broke up with Josh. He was my boyfriend and it actually hurts. So I can't help but cry. I'm sorry if I'm overreacting by crying just because of a silly breakup," she said.

"I don't think it's silly, Cammie. This kind of things that you're keeping to yourself is actually something you have to tell someone, especially if it's bothering you," I said.

I actually resisted the urge to kiss her right then and now because she was now facing me with a really sad look on her face. I really want to comfort her! But the best thing I could do is to put my arm around her. She needs a hug right now, I'm sure of it. I actually don't want to freak her out by kissing her immediately after she just told me what's causing her sadness.

I put my arm around her and said, "Look Cammie, I'm always here for you. If you need someone to talk to or if you just need someone, I'm always here, okay?" I said.

She started to cry so I tightened my grip on her and I was really surprised because she suddenly hugged me and cried on me. I smoothened her hair and decided to just be quiet for a while and leave her to her thoughts. As I did this, I kept thinking how vulnerable Cammie is. Once her relationship ends, she gets really sad and actually moves on really slow. If I would become her boyfriend, I wouldn't hurt her. I'll always be here to protect her and make her happy. I'll never make her sad. It's because I love her. I really want to say I love you to Cammie but, seeing that her heart is really crushed, I couldn't do. I just can't. I promised to myself that I would heal her broken heart and I'll never give her one.

"Zach," she whispered, "why are you so quiet? Am I making you feel awkward?"

"Of course not!" I told her.

I turned her around to see if she was crying and when I saw that she wasn't, I can't help but smile.

"Why are you smiling? Is there something on my face?" she asked, frantically wiping her face with her hands.

She's so adorable when she acts really clueless. I started to grin wider when she suddenly slapped my arm. And boy, did she have a really hard hit. It hurt.

"Ouch! Why'd you do that?" I shouted.

"Well, stop smiling like an idiot and tell me if there's something on my face!" she shouted back.

"There's nothing on your face. I swear. I'm just smiling because you've stopped crying," I said in a low voice.

"Oh," she replied with a straight face.

I cupped my hand on her chin and saw some stray streaks of tears on her face. I couldn't help but wipe it with my index finger. She sighed and started to put her hand behind my head. She started to caress my hair which is actually a nice feeling.

"Why did Jimmy even break up with Cammie? She's wonderful!" I thought.

I was surprised when she started to lean forward. I couldn't stop myself leaning in. When our lips were about to meet, the PA came to life, disrupting our sweet moment.

I heard Cammie curse and I chuckled. She started to hit my arm again and as I was about to tickle her, there was an announcement telling all the students to go back to their suites. As I checked my watch, I saw that it was already 10:00 in the evening! Wow, time flies by when you're having fun.

"Well, we have to go back to our suites. Thanks for comforting and listening to me, Zach," she said.

"Don't mention it. Gallagher Girl," I said with a wink.

She started to blush and I stood up and she did the same.

"I'll walk you to your suite," I offered.

"Oh, no need Zach. My suite is just approximately 30 steps once you're outside of this room," she said.

I couldn't help but grin at her awesome response.

"Okay, well, since you'll be on your way to your suite, I'll give you something," I told her.

"What's it?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"This," I said as I leaned to kiss her cheek.

She immediately blushed and I smiled when she did the same.

"Good night Blackthorne Boy," she said.

"Good night Gallagher Girl," I replied.

When she was already at the door of her suite, she turned around and waved at me. I waved back and after that waving exchange, she closed the door.

Making my way to my suite, I couldn't help but think about what just happened at the music room. I'm absolutely positive that I love Cammie. I just hope she loves me back. This night is the best night of my life.

So? How was it? Did you like it? Yes or no? Please review! :D Thank you! Give me ideas, okay? :) I'll try to put it in the story. :) Thanks! :D
