Hey, this chapters a bit longer, and I will keep trying to make them longer :)

"So?" I asked after Josh had ordered drinks and we had sat down, I sipped the coke in front of me and then traced the pattern on the side of the can.

"So." He repeated and I laughed. This was the calmest I had felt in a long time, it was like I didn't have to pretend to understand everything that he was saying like I had to with Liz, and I didn't have to act like I was enjoying myself like I had to most of the time back at the house with everyone. It was nice to just be with someone who was normal. "Do you come here often?" He asked and I laughed.

"Not really, I'm sort of under house arrest." I smiled and he nodded.

"Protective parents?" he asked and I smiled, I couldn't see any way around what I had said without lying. At least I could say this was good practice for my lying skills.

"Something like that." I nodded and he smiled like he understood. Boy, you have no idea what my life is like. "What about you?" I asked and he smiled.

"Well I live here and I come here sometimes." He told me and I nodded, maybe he was using this as an escape from his normal life too. I smiled, this was a bit awkward. I hadn't had a lot of experience with boys; I was always the girl that people's eyes missed. Well, except for Josh I guess.

And Zach, I finally realised that he was standing there watching us, a weird expression on his face and then he shook his head, stuck his hands further in to his pockets and then walked away. I looked at my watch; I was half way in to the tree hours I had to spend avoiding everyone.

I watched as Bex and Grant made him, but he just shook his head and pushed them away before stalking away from them. "Are you ok?" Josh asked and I smiled, refocusing in to what Josh was saying.

"Yeah." I said and he nodded. "What were you saying?" I asked and he smiled, launching back in to his life story.

"What about you?" he asked and I shrugged.

"My parents work a lot, there is not much more than that." I said, if I started talking I knew that I would end up spilling stuff that I wasn't allowed to say to anyone. I watched Bex and Macey pacing on the other side of the Shopping City ground floor, I saw them muttering stuff to each other or to the comms units. "I have to go." I said quickly and then stood up, "This has been nice Josh." I smiled and then smiled sweetly.

"Will I see you again?" he asked and I smiled, looking between the door and Josh.

"Depends whether I'm allowed out." I said and then he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, I shivered and then looked back out of the window. Bex and Macey had finally spotted me; Zach was standing next to them looking down at the ground but when he looked up his eyes pierced in to me. I shivered and then pulled away from Josh. "I really have to go." I said and he nodded.

"Do you have a mobile number?" he asked and I shook my head.

"My parents won't let me have one." I smiled and then looked at the floor, ashamed that I was lying and the mobile in my pocket – the one that Bex had given me a while ago, in case of emergency – was burning a hole in my leg.

"E-mail then?" he asked and I shook my head.

"I'll see you around." I smiled and then walked out of the cafe and over to where everyone had met. I looked at them all, waiting for them to be angry.

"Who was that?" Bex asked, peering round me. Grant looked a little bit angry – they weren't officially together, but they might as well be – until Bex turned and laughed at his expression.

"Bex," Macey said and I flinched at her tone, it was sharp and scary and this is what I expected their reaction to be like.

Nick looked at Macey and then placed a hand on her shoulder, "What did you tell him?" he asked and I shook my head.

"Nothing that couldn't be classed as normal." I said, trying to remember if that was true. "Well, I think I didn't."

"What exactly did you say?" Liz asked gently. Zach was still avoiding my gaze, I don't know why – he was the one who left ME!

"He asked me about my life..." I went through a play by play and after I was done they nodded.

Liz contemplated the damage and "You did well." She said smiling at me as she took my hand and pulled me towards the exit, everyone else following behind.

"And you are so good at hiding." Macey added.

Bex caught up, pulling Grant along by his hand. "Yeah," she paused and looked back at Zach. "If he hadn't told us where you were, we would never have found you."

"If he," I flicked my head towards Zach, "Hadn't left me alone than he wouldn't have had to, because I would have been with him."

Nick nudged him with his elbow, but he was back to the cocky – extremely irritating – Zach that he usually was. "We'll meet you back at the house." Jonas said and he pulled Liz towards a black car with tinted windows, Nick followed them while Bex, Macey and Grant took another car.

I guess that left me with Zach – Oh Joy! Sarcasm intended. Zach was already in the car, therefore I was standing alone in the car park. Zach rolled down his window and looked over the top of the sunglasses he had put on, at me. I looked at the ground as I walked to the passenger's side.

"So," I started but the icy glares that Zach was sending out of the window made me shut up. Let me just reinforce the point: that he left ME alone! Not the other way round.

Zach POV

I looked out of the window, trying hard not to look at her. I don't know why her being with that guy made me so angry; I just think that if she could choose anyone she could find someone so much better. "So?" she asked, but I just kept staring out of the window.

It's because you like her. A small part of my brain told me and the idea was so crazy that I laughed, out loud. That made Cammie stare at me like I was crazy. Great! Now she thinks you're an idiot. "Shut up." I said, again with the out-loudness. Great! Now she thinks you're being rude to her. "I was talking to myself." I told he and she nodded. "Whatever." I said and then I pulled in to the drive way.

I got out of the car and then bleeped the keys after she had slammed her door and stalked past me. I wanted to call after her, but I knew that would be a stupid idea. What would I say? Hey I was just angry because I really hated that kid, for no obvious reason. "Cam." The word had escaped my mouth before I could even register that they were actually coming out.

"What?" she asked her voice soft and she smiled. Why was she so nice to me, when I was obviously a prat to her?

"You forgot your bag." I said – I totally lost my nerve - and she laughed.

"No I didn't." she said and then she smiled and held it up in front of her.

"Sorry, I thought you had." I walked up the driveway and past her, in to the house, past everyone staring at me, past McHenry when she said "What's your problem? Oh I get it." And then up to my room.

How could she know what I was thinking? I didn't even know what I was thinking.
