CHAPTER 8
CAMMIE'S POV
When I woke up, I was no longer lying on Zach's shoulder but instead I was on a bed. Thinking I was kidnapped by Josh, Dillon and that Cindy girl, I stood up and checked the room for any bugs or cameras.
"This room looks really familiar," I wondered.
"CAMMIE YOU'RE FINALLY AWAKE!"
Looking behind me, I saw that is was Bex. So I was in our suite. Duh. Stupid Cammie.
"I was really worried when you didn't wake up at 7 am because I know that's the normal time you wake up. I thought something bad happened to you so you didn't wake up. Maybe you were poisoned or something. I was really worried! Don't you ever do that to me again! I hate worrying, you should know that since you're my best friend..."
"Bex! Stop! I'm fine! I mean, look, I'm already awake so that must mean I'm awake so stop ranting words out loud!"
"...and I don't want to worry about you because I hate it! Yeah, I already said that but I just wanted to tell you again."
I stared at her for a long time, not an hour because that would've hurt my eyes, when she realized that I was fine and awake.
"Oh hi Cammie! Was I ranting out loud again?"
"No, you weren't. You were completely calm when I woke up. You actually talked to me in a really soothing voice!" I said sarcastically.
"Oh shut up Cammie. I hate it when you talk to me sarcastically. That's also one thing I hate."
"Well, don't you hate a lot of things?"
"Just shut up. Come here best friend! Lemme hug you!"
Laughing, I approached Bex and hugged her like there was no tomorrow. I couldn't help but smile, this girl is the best best friend any girl could have.
"You woke up really late. Like really late. At least you still have time to attend CoveOps. So go on and get ready for class!" Bex said while pushing me towards the bathroom.
"Hurry up okay! I don't want to be late for CoveOps."
Before I started to open the shower, I told her, "Is it because of a guy named Grant Newman?"
"OH JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH BEFORE I SHUT IT FOR YOU!"
Chuckling to myself, I thought, Bex couldn't really handle being teased. It's a good thing I'm protected by the bathroom door and the shower curtains.
After 20 minutes of preparing, we made our way to CoveOps class and I couldn't help but stare at Bex's huge grin plastered upon her face.
"What's with the grin? Don't tell me that you really are together with GRANT NEWMAN?" I said his name out loud earning me a hard smack to the arm. That's definitely going to bruise.
"Oh please. Speak for yourself. It's not like you and Zach have a thing going on."
"There's nothing going on between me and Zach. If there were, I would've told you. And since I didn't tell you anything, then nothing's going on!'
"You really had to explain? A simple 'there's nothing going on between us' would be a lot better answer."
"I know I know." I started laughing out loud with Bex, earning us a few glares from teachers walking on the hallway.
I was actually thinking about what happened yesterday night. Josh Abrams is a bad guy who's working for the Circle. And they're after me. And there was this whisper I heard Zach say, "I am the good and bad guy." I'm terribly confused about that statement. He says he's on our side so why the hell does he say he's both the good and bad guy? He seriously has a lot of thinking to do.
Oblivious to my internal battle, Bex said, "Hey Cammie. We're here. You better start clearing your mind of such useless things that involve a certain person named Zach Goode."
I rolled my eyes and smacked her arm, just like she did to me earlier.
"Go to your lover boy, Bex." I whispered then ran away from her so I couldn't feel the pain of that strong hand.
I saw Zach on our table, sleeping. Not only that. He was snoring and drooling. The sight was really gross, because of the drool. Seriously, if you saw the drool, you would flinch because of its grossness.
"Yo Zach. Wake up. Cammie's here already and you're drooling on the table." Jo-something said. I just know that his name starts with a Jo.
Suddenly Zach bolted upright and started looking around the room frantically. I couldn't help but laugh at him. And boy, was my laugh really loud!
"Dude! Why'd you wake me up? I was having the best dream ever!" Zach said while punching Jo dude on his arm.
"You really had to wake up because Ms. Morgan is here already and you were snoring and drooling." Jo something said while laughing.
"Ms. Morgan is here? Shit!"
"Better not let my mother hear you curse. She hates it when people curse." I said, chuckling.
He looked at me and then smirked. That annoying smirk I've always wanted to wipe off his face.
"So Ms. Morgan is actually Cammie! You know, Jonas, you could've told me that it was Cammie, not her mom."
So Jo dude is actually Jonas! Now I won't refer to him as Jo person, dude, something.
"Hello Zach. Could you please wipe the table? It's flooded with drool. Your drool." I said sweetly.
He smirked at me again then said, "The table isn't actually flooding with drool because that would be impossible but as you requested that I wipe it off, I will gladly to do it for you."
"Zach please, just stop flirting with her and wipe off the drool! It's terribly gross." Jonas said.
"I wasn't flirting and I'll wipe it off now, Your Highness." Zach said through his gritted teeth.
As soon as he was done, I said thanks then took a seat beside him. When I looked at him, there was dry drool on his face and I couldn't help but laugh again.
"Cammie, what's funny?"
"You-" I couldn't say what I needed to tell him because I was laughing so hard.
I pointed to Jonas then to Zach, indicating to Jonas that he needed to look at Zach. When he looked at him, he also laughed hysterically and that made Zach really annoyed.
"Hello? Can anyone please tell me what's funny?"
I don't know who would actually reply to him and to my astonishment, it was Bex.
"You have dry drool on your face." She told him, trying to keep a straight face but failed as she also started laughing hysterically.
"Why is everyone laughing?" Mr. Solomon asked us. I didn't notice that he entered the room. I was laughing hysterically so maybe that's why.
Bex pointed at Zach, who was trying to wipe off the dry drool with a tissue and it made me laugh louder because there were bits of tissue on his face and he looked really funny.
When Mr. Solomon looked at Zach, he started to laugh then quickly covered it with a cough.
"Mr. Goode, please go to the bathroom and wipe off whatever is on your face."
When he stood up and left the classroom, Bex, Jonas, and I stopped laughing and were wiping out the tears of laughter Zach caused.
"Now that you three stopped laughing, I want to tell everyone that we wouldn't be having a CoveOps class today because I need to track down some enemies."
As soon as he said the word enemies, Josh, Dillon and Cindy woman entered my mind.
"I need Bex, Liz, Macey, Cammie, Zach, Jonas, Grant and Alex to come with me right now."
"Who's Alex?" I asked Jonas.
"Oh, he's our roommate. He's actually a really quiet guy so maybe that's why you don't know him."
He started looking around the room, probably looking for Alex. His face lit up so I guessed he saw him and he pointed to a blonde haired guy and said, "That's Alex."
"Hey Alex! Come over." Jonas said.
"Why did you call him over?"
"So I could introduce you, duh." he said, chuckling.
"Yeah Jonas?" Alex said.
"Alex, this is Cammie. Cammie, this is Alex. Cammie was asking who Alex was so I thought that I would introduce you two to each other." Jonas said.
"Oh cool. Hi Cammie, nice to meet you." Alex said, with a cute dimpled smile.
"You too Alex." I smile back at him and shook his outstretched hand.
"I know this is weird because we just met and uhh..." he stopped talking so I got curious to what he was going to say.
"Alex, what is it? Just tell me. Don't be nervous." I said while chuckling.
"Yom beeful." he said in a really soft voice so it was really impossible to hear him.
"What did you just say?"
"I said, you're beautiful." he said while blushing.
Aww! He blushed when he said I was beautiful. He's so cute and adorable.
"Aww! Thanks Alex. You're cute." I told him.
His laugh was music to my ears. Could it be? Am I falling in love with Alex? I mean, come on. I just met the person! He just said I was beautiful while blushing and I was still holding his hand and it seems like I don't want to let go of his comforting hand, and I think so does he. I couldn't be falling in love with him! As I remember, I was in love with Zach. Wait, wait. Was? Oh this falling in love feeling sucks.
"The students I called earlier, come on. Mr. Goode is here already." Mr. Solomon said.
Alex and I reluctantly let go of each other's hands and went to follow Mr. Solomon to wherever the hell he's bringing us.
I couldn't help but feel really uneasy. I mean, I just got introduced to a cute blonde guy named Alex, whose laugh is music to my ears, has a dimpled smile and a comfortable hand. But why do I get the feeling that this is not I wanted? I felt this way when I saw Zach enter the room with a warm smile that made my heart jump and then when his eyes landed on my hand holding Alex's, his smile immediately disappeared and he looked really sad. I hate myself right now.
ZACH'S POV
Finally I'm done wiping the dry drool off my face. I hate myself for being such an idiot but I loved myself at the same time because I made Cammie laugh. Hearing her laugh takes all my problems away and makes me think that everything will be okay.
As I made my way to the classroom, I hear Cammie say, "Aww! Thanks Alex. You're cute."
I couldn't help but feel really jealous. I thought Cammie was in love with me? If she was, then why was she telling Alex that he's cute?
I know that Cammie is in love with me so I pretended that I didn't hear her say that and I put on a warm smile on my face that was only meant for her.
As I entered the room, I saw Cammie smiling at Alex then she looked at me and smiled. Her smile was really cute and it always made me crazy. I then looked at her hand, which was holding Alex's and I don't know why, but my smile disappeared and I felt really sad. And jealous. Maybe they were only having a handshake? But, it looked like they were reluctant to let go of each other's hand. I knew it. I made myself think that Cammie and I would have a shot at being together but that would never happen. I would never be with Cammie. Never have, never will.
Oh no. :( Zach is heart broken and Cammie is confused about Alex and Zach! What do you want Cammie to do?
