Zach's POV
I left the dining hall to see where Cammie and that idiot went. Suddenly I was pressed up against the wall.
"Hi Zachy" someone whispered in my ear. The girl stepped back and I saw a girl, the one that is always gossiping, I think her name is Trina or Tina or something.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"You." She whispered trying to sound seductive bit failing terrible.
"Uh…. Well-" I started to tell her that I kind of liked someone else when I felt her lips on mine. I tried to push her off me but she had my arms above my head. I heard footsteps and tried even harder to push Tina off but she wouldn't budge. The footsteps were coming closer and closer. Based on my luck today it would probably be Bex and if she saw me kissing Tina she'd kill me. Suddenly a girl walked in but instead of looking into Bex's brown eyes I looked into honey colored ones. Oh why couldn't it have been Bex? Suddenly Tina stepped away from me just enough to smile at me, I kicked her in the shin and ran after Cammie.
"CAMMIE" I called after her but she had disappeared.
Cammie's POV
I heard Zach call after me, but I had already disappeared into one of the passageways. As soon as I was hidden I started to cry. Why was I even crying? Zach and I aren't dating. So what if he was kissing Tina, why should I care? I dried my tears and walked into the dining hall once again. I thought that I was doing a pretty good job of hiding my feelings. I remained quiet throughout the rest of dinner and when my friends asked me what was wrong I just said that I was tired.
It was 4:33 in the morning and all my roommates were sound asleep but I couldn't sleep. I got up and decided to go for a walk to clear my head. I went to Luke's room but he wasn't there. I found a note on his dresser though:
Sorry Cammie, I got called in for an important mission. I'll see you soon.
-L
I thought I would be more upset about the fact that Luke was gone but the truth is: I'm used to it. He used to leave all the time and I hadn't seen him in years until this evening. I walked around the school noticing different passageways as I walked.
Up ahead there was a chair next to a window, and in that chair there was a figure.
I started to turn around when he called out my name. "Cammie? Is that you?" Zach asked.
I sighed. "Yes." I said softly.
"I need to explain.." he started to say.
"You don't need to explain anything." I said trying to swallow the lump that was building in my throat.
"Yes I do-" Zach started again.
"No you don't. I'm happy for you guys." I said inconvincibly.
"Cammie-" He started to say but it was too late, once again, I was gone.
I woke up to Bex poking me. "Go away." I groaned.
"Nope." Bex said popping the 'p'. "We have something to tell you." Bex said excitedly.
"Ok… What?" I asked.
"Well Grant told us something quite interesting…." Bex said, I could see Macey and Liz holding in their excitement.
"Zach likes you!" Macey finally blurted out.
"WHAT?" I shouted. "Nonononono! You guys have it all wrong, he doesn't like me! He likes someone else." I said to them.
"Uh… no…. I distinctly remember Grant saying that Zach likes you." Bex said.
"Well, just wait until breakfast. Then you'll ALL see just how much Zach likes ME" I said, starting to look annoyed. I got up and went into the shower, ignoring their confused faces.
30 minutes later we were all wearing our Macey-approved outfits and were walking into the dining hall. We sat at our usual table and 10 minutes later the boys came over to sit with us. Grant started to flirt with Bex and she was flirting back. Macey was making out with Nick and Liz and Jonas were talking about some tech thing. I could feel Zach watching me and trying to catch my eye but I ignored him.
The big doors to the dining hall were flung open and in walked Tina and her posse. Tina was wearing the shortest dress ever (and I'm best friends with Macey McHenry, I've seen short) and really high heels. She looked ridiculous. She started to strut over towards our table (she looked like she was going to topple over any second now).
She leaned over and gave Zach a big kiss on the lips. I turned away really fast. As soon as Tina left Zach started to get up and leave but before he could Bex had him pinned up against the wall.
"What the hell is wrong with you Goode?" Bex screamed at him.
"What the hell is wrong with you Rebecca?" He screamed back. Bex was mad before but after he called her that, she looked like she was going to kill him.
"First you pretend like you actually like Cammie and then you start dating Tina Walters! FREAKING TINA WALTERS!" Bex screamed and slapped him in the face.
"Bex. Stop." I said. Grant came over and picked Bex up he threw her over his shoulder and started to carry her out of the hall.
"You better watch your back in P&E Goode." Bex shouted at him.
Macey and Liz came over to me and led me out of the dining hall.
"Are you okay?" Liz asked me.
"Why shouldn't I be?" I asked a little too innocently.
"Oh please, like you don't like Zach." Macey said.
"I don't." I replied.
"I hate to break it to you, but YOU DO! And he likes you!" Macey exclaimed.
"Did you just miss the entire scene that went on?" I asked Macey.
"I honestly have no clue what the hell is going on between Zach and Tina but I know that he likes you." Macey said.
"HE. DOES. NOT." I shouted to Macey.
"HE DOES!" She shouted back. "You don't see the way he looks at you, everyone else does though. Whenever you turn around he stares at you." Macey said.
"Macey… I just… I don't know." I said softly.
Liz and Macey came up and gave me a hug. Bex came in and joined us. I could tell by look on her face how much she hated seeing me upset. The next look I saw on her face was the one I never want it to be directed at. It was the look Bex got when someone hurt her friends or family: It was her murder look.
