A/N Hello! Ok so I need the readers to understand that this story WILL have Zammie, but it isn't going to be the perfect Zammie couple that is in a lot of stories. I'm sorry if that's what you want to read but their relationship is going to have much more conflict and more real. Also the characters may seem different acting but its how I need them to be so I hope that if you continue to read that you still enjoy the story.
Chapter 6
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Cammie Morgan woke up to the harsh shrill of her alarm clock with a start. She had never gotten used to the noise and was startled each morning. Every time she got close to hitting her head on the bed frame. Ugghhhh first day of school. Cammie got out of bed, stretched her muscles, and turned to her closet to pick out the perfect first day of school outfit. After five minutes of searching she decided on a final outfit, took a picture of it with her webcam, and sent it to Macey to be approved. A minute later her laptop beeped.
Video Chat Requested by Macey McHenry
Cammie accepted the video chat and sat down at her desk.
"Morning Cam."
"Morning Mace. So is my outfit okay?"
Macey just starred into the camera making Cammie nervous.
"YES its AMAZING! Your going to look so hot wearing it! All the guys will notice you."
"Thanks Mace."
"No problem, and you know what, I bet even Zach won't be able to resist checking you out." This earned an eye roll from Cammie.
"I thought I was just going to be friends with him!"
"Oh…that's right…I forgot. Oh well! We'll see how things turn out. I gotta go get ready myself. Meet you by our lockers!" Macey then logged off and Cammie shut her laptop to go get ready herself.
Cammie arrived at school fifty minutes later and entered the halls. Her silver sparkly ballet flats slapped softly on the tile floor and she could feel the stares trained on her as she walked swiftly down the halls toward her locker. She turned the corner and saw Macey already standing there waiting. Macey caught sight of her friend and immediately was impressed. She had taught her friend well, she didn't even help her pick out her outfit! Macey admired Cammie's blue tank top that matched her eyes with beads on the neckline. The faded denim shorts showed off her tan and toned legs along with the silver ballet flats that contrasted her skin tone against her legs. Her make up wasn't over powering, very clean looking, and she noticed her friend spent extra time to even straighten her hair completely today.
"Oh. My. God. Your gorgeous!" Macey hugged her friend.
"So do you, I mean look at yourself!" Cammie's mouth had almost dropped when she noticed Macey's choice of clothes today. Macey had skintight black skinny jeans on with black high heels. Those heels were at least a couple inches tall. She had a red top on with a black-cropped vest over it. And of course her hair and make up didn't have a single flaw.
"Ooohh. Cammie I see Zach coming down the hall. Kaylee's not with him. Now its time to impress!" She reached out to fluff Cam's hair, but had her hand swatted away.
"No! Why can't you remember we are going to just be friends!"
"Hmmm. Maybe because he's just so gorgeous that I know my best friend needs him." She grinned. "Friends. Fine, but that doesn't mean you can't show off. Now when he gets close enough to recognize us give a small wave to him and then walk away."
"What? I'm going to wave and then simply walk away. Wow. That seems pointless."
Macey sighed in annoyance. "Listen to me Cam. It may seem pointless to you but the wave gets his attention, then as you walk away he'll wonder why you didn't stop to talk, why you didn't care enough and just walked away. He'll watch you walk away and notice how good you look! Trust. Me."
"Alright fine where is he?"
"About fifteen feet away. Turn now and wave."
Cammie obeyed her friend and turned to wave. When she turned and her eyes searched for Zach her pulse quickened as she laid eyes on him. Zach was walking casually through the hall holding his schedule and map. He had on dark jeans, the same Nike shoes from the fair, a green t-shirt, and a black baseball cap on. He looked Good. Cammie waved and Zach nodded his head to her and smiled. She quickly turned and started walking away.
Macey McHenry watched Zach and Cam wave to each other before Cammie quickly turned around and started walking away. Macey smiled that Cammie's hair whipped around to her other shoulder. She watched closely for Zach's reaction when she walked away. He blinked a couple times and his eyebrows scrunched together. Only a few seconds later his face looked calm again, but he continued to watch Cammie walk away. He smiled slightly while watching her.
Cammie was wandering through the halls trying to find her sixth period science class. She had no idea at the beginning of the day that her school and rearranged itself in order, according to the principle, for students to find their classes easier. Yeah right! She was totally lost, and the bell was going to ring in three minutes!
She entered a smaller looking classroom with a few desks to find them filled. An old man in a tracksuit looked up from his clipboard at her.
"Are you in this class?"
"Is this Catastrophic Events science?"
The man laughed, "No this is First Aid Physical Education"
"Oh god. Do you know where room 132A now is?"
"Well I'm not sure, but I think its down this pathway and you enter the gray building there. The room should be on your right."
"Okay thank you very much." Cammie sprinted out the door and down the path determined not to be late on her first day. By some miracle she arrived at 132A and took an empty seat. The teacher was at his desk typing away at his computer and didn't even notice her come in. She had gotten very lucky.
After her last class, which was science, Cammie exited the building and reached automatically for her cell phone. She read through the few missed txt messages from her brother Tyler, her mother, and Bex complaining about only having one class with her. She let out an exhausted sigh and typed back.
"Rough first day back?" A sort of familiar voice asked. Zach.
"It was fine besides the fact I ended up in Physical Education instead of my science class."
Zach laughed and shook his head, "Wow. I thought I was the one with a bad sense of direction." She smacked his arm, but laughed too.
"Hey watch it mister. I know everyone in this school. Your new here so you better not get on my bad side!" Cammie was joking but Zach looked taken back and first till he realized she was joking. He smiled brightly and motioned that he was bowing at her feet.
"I'm very sorry miss I had no idea you held such power involving the subject of how people like me at this school."
"I'm sure even if I tried to ruin your chances here or something that people would still like you."
"You think?"
"Yeah. Definitely. You're very nice and friendly, I'm sure you'll have lots of friends in no time."
"Well thanks."
"No problem." Cammie found it very easy to talk to Zach after they got past the awkward part.
"Which science class do you have this trimester?"
"I have Catastrophic Events with Mr. Acker."
"Me too! What period do you have it?"
"Sixth."
"Oh, I have it fifth."
"We got close to having class together."
"Yeah." Zach reached up and rubbed his neck nervously.
A moment later Dylan Thompson showed up behind Zach and clapped his hand on Zach's shoulder. "Hey Zach! You wanna come over to my house to hang out for awhile. First day of school means no homework!"
Cammie was impressed. Zach had already made friends with Dylan Thompson, captain of the basketball team, jock, popular, friendly to people he approved, but ignored anyone who wasn't attractive in his opinion.
"Hey Cammie." He acknowledged her.
"Hey Dylan. Have a nice summer?"
"Definitely! That party by the lake a couple weeks ago was awesome wasn't it?"
"Yeah it was really fun. Anyways I should get going home."
Dylan nodded his head, "See you later." He then turned to Zach. "You coming?"
"Yeah I'll meet you at the parking lot in a minute."
Dylan then walked away leaving Cammie and Zach alone.
"Well I guess I'll see you tomorrow." He said.
"Yeah. I'll see you tomorrow."
They both smiled and walked their separate ways.
A/N Next chapter in my opinion is better and you'll be happy with it so review and you'll get it soon!
