We walked into the Grand Hall laughing about a joke Bex made. As soon as we entered, the whole Hall went silent. I rolled my eyes and sat in between Casey and Erik. Bex, Macey, and Liz followed suit with Bex sitting next to Grant, Macey sitting next to Nick, and Liz sitting next to Jonas. Zach sat next to Jonas who was sitting next to Casey. The Hall was still staring at the ten of us. Macey noticed and decided to say something about it.
"STOP STARING!" Macey yelled.
Everyone quickly went back to eating and I laughed at a joke Casey made about Mr. Solomon.
"You guys know you look exactly like each other?" Grant asked stupidly, talking about Casey and I. I rolled my eyes. Sometimes Grant is such an idiot.
Bex smacked him upside the head and everyone laughed, including Zach.
Zach.
I stared at his face. His green, emerald eyes. His dark brown hair that was so soft. The way his jaw tensed when he was mad. It still hurt to think about him. I don't even know if we're together anymore.
"You still love him, don't you?" Casey asked me. I looked at her and tears filled my eyes, threatening to spill over.
I nodded.
"Then go talk to him." Casey encouraged me with a nudge.
"I can't." I told her, the tears finally splashing onto my cheeks. I turned away and quickly wiped my face dry, erasing any trace of tears.
"Why not?" Casey questioned.
"Before you came, Zach went to Erik and I's table and he said that I've forgotten about him. I didn't know what to say. I haven't forgotten about him. He was all I thought about when I left. God, Casey. I still love him. I love him so much." I hung my head in my hands.
"Even if his mother's a psycho maniac intent on destroying you?" Erik asked, smiling.
I laughed out loud at this. I laughed so hard and so loud, my stomach hurt. Everyone at the table stared at me, so I quieted down. I reduced my laugh to silent giggles.
"Always know how to cheer someone up, don't you Erik?" I smiled and punched his shoulder playfully. In response, he waggled his eyebrows and bit his lower lip.
I looked to my left and saw Zach watching us. He stared at me for a minute and forty five seconds. I stared back, of course. Then I mouthed, "Can we talk?" I nodded my head in the direction of the Hall doors. He nodded and we walked together out the Grand Hall, felling the whole entire room's eyes on us.
I led him to my secret passageway and hugged him tight. When I pulled back, I looked into his eyes.
"What was that for, Cammie?" He sneered.
"I'm sorry, Zach. I'm sorry I left you and didn't take you with me. Zach, I love you and I always will." Tears formed in my eyes for the hundredth time that day.
I love you, too, Cammie." He said smiling, and his finger traced my jaw.
"Gallagher Girl." I whispered.
"What?" He asked, his eyebrow raised in confusion.
"Call me Gallagher Girl." I said louder.
"I love you, Gallagher Girl." He said.
I put my hands on both sides of his face and brought it down to mine, crashing my lips to his. Zach wrapped one arm around me. He pushed up my shirt and slid his hand slowly up my side. He pulled me closer and I ran a hand down his impeccably firm abs. (AN: HaHaHaHa I got that from Well THAT"S Awkward.) His tongue traced my bottom lip, begging for entrance. I happily granted, our tongues playing with each other, teasing each other. Before it got too heated, he pulled away.
Zach looked at me with his smoldering emerald green eyes, his face serious and his walls back up.
"Don't you EVER do that again, Cammie! You worried the whole school and me! We thought that you were never coming back. Why didn't you take me?" He yelled, but hurt colored his voice.
"I won't do it again, Zach. You don't have to worry. I'm here to stay." I assured him. I kissed him lightly on the lips. I grabbed his hand, squeezed it tightly, and led him to the CoveOps room.
Class started in 5….4….3….2….1…. seconds. Students piled into the classroom, chatting about nonsense no even cared about. Macey and Bex walked in last. They looked at me and waggled their eyebrows. I blushed a furious shade of red and Zach smirked.
After one minute and twenty five seconds of constant torturous looks from Macey and Bex, Mr. Solomon finally came in, God bless him. He looked at Zach and I for a brief moment before addressing the class.
"Today, class, we are going into town for a lesson on tailing. You have ten minutes to get your disguises and meet me at the vans in front of the school." And with that, we left the room.
So there you have it. Your Cammie and Zach moment. For those who wanted Zach and Cammie to make up, are you happy now?
