A/N: I know it's been awhile.. But hey I'm back. Truth is I had a lot of chapters written but then my laptop got stolen. However, I am going to re-write now that school is almost done. Thank you to all of the reviewers if it weren't for you's I probably would have abandon this story. Also I would like to thank XxmyipodgetsmethroughxX9 for messaging me!
Kso.. Let's recap: Cammie met her cocky but nice male roommate who may or may not be crying. Oh and apparently Liz can't reheat lasagna.

*"Daddy, Mommy where are we going". I said wondering where this car was taking us.
"We are going to see your aunt Margaret and you uncle Tom." replied my mother.
" So we are going to Florida" I replied excitedly
"Yes we are" said my father
*Will we go to Disney World?* I asked barely containing my excitement. After all which seven year old would not want to go to Disney.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
"Arghh" I woke up with a sigh. Where is that snooze button when you need it. Finally, I shut off that annoying alarm clock to realize it was only 6:00 am on the last Saturday before school officially started.. Greaat! Tossing and turning in bed for a good fifteen minutes I realized that I was definitely not falling back asleep. With a grunt I got out of bed and went in the bathroom to get ready. I decided to wear my favourite sundress, it was white with pink and orange flowers on it. After straitening my hair and applying a bit of makeup I decided to go walk around campus. I took my keys and my wallet and set out to explore Galadriel Academy. After an hour of walking around and successfully finding all my classes I decided to head back to my dorm. Hopefully, Zach was awake that's when I remember how I thought I heard him crying last night. I mentally laughed I myself, seriously Cammie guys like him don't cry. I walked into the room to find Zach trying to figure out my passcode on my iPod. I really hoped he didn't disable it for a long time. That's when I realized he had a fat lip and a black eye.
"Oh my God, what happened" I screeched.
"Uhmm I got into a fight last night" he replied hesitantly
"Really a fight on your first night here? Do you even know anybody enough to fight them or was it just a thing you did in your drunken haze" I almost yelled at him. I knew he was no nice guy it was all just an act. He probably just wanted to get in my pants. I should have known all guys like him were the same. I was disgusted with myself for even considering he was different. I should know better really he was almost an exact replica of Luke. I finally looked into his eyes to see them filled with pain and vulnerability.
"First of all, you really shouldn't judge people and secondly I don't drink" Zach replied through clenched teeth
Guilt overtook me "I'm sorry I.. I don't know why I said that. I..I.. I'm truly sorry" I stuttered I came here to forget about Luke not to compare him with everyone I meet.
"It's fine" Zach said emotionless
"What happened" I asked curiously
"Nothing important" he replied obviously trying to avoid it
" Well apparently it's important enough to make you cry" I said knowing full well that I struck a nerve by the look on his face
" I don't want to talk about it"
" Well remember one thing whatever it is I'm positive someone somewhere has it worst" I said quoting one of my fathers used lines
"I doubt it" he murmured
" Well either man up and say it or stop brooding like that bunny eating vampire" I said clearly annoyed
" You really wanna know what happened well here it is, after I left I went to go see my girlfriend to tell her how I think I'm in love with so you can imagine my surprise when I found her in bed with my so called best friend, and let's say they weren't exactly sleeping. At least now I know why she didn't want a dorm with me. Well after I got over the initial shock I sorta punched my friend and he sorta hit me back and yea. So now I'm single and friendless." He said angrily
" Well that's one hell of a story" I said trying to remain calm even thou I was breaking down inside
" Yes it sure is" he said smirking and the infamous smirk returns
I looked around trying to keep the tears from falling as I sat down on my bed. As I reached my iPod to listen to some music I felt the first tears fall. Simply perfect I thought. Did I not say that I would never ever cry for him again. That's when I realized my iPod was still disabled for another forty-seven minutes. I felt a shift in the bed and I knew that Zach saw me cry. For the love of all that's holy could this day get any worse.
"Are you ok?" Zach asked his voice full of concern
" Leave me alone" I said wiping away the tears
I felt him leave the bed then I heard the door shut. Good he finally listen to what I said. I knew I was mistaken when I heard the door re-open. Then I saw Zach kneeled over next to the bed with a box of Kleenex. I took a few and mumbled a thanks. He then went to his side of the room and I heard a faint sound while concentrating I realized it was Set fire to the rain by Adele.
After the song finished and I was done crying I sat up and said.
"At least you found out by yourself"
"What?'' He replied confusion etched on his face
" My cousin she's the one that told me she saw my ex-boyfriend with another girl, I obviously did not believe her so I went to check for myself. She was right of course but he wasn't even sorry. We had been together for over two years and apparently he had been cheating on me for over six months. The worst part is when I found him, he asked me if I wanted to join them, that sick jerk. I shouldn't have started crying, I promise myself I wouldn't anymore. Its just that when you said your story and it was similar to mine it just brought back memories that I am trying to forget."
"I'm sorry about what happened it's awful. Krista and I have only been together for three months and it hurts. But you, two years wow. Well that guy is definitely a douche" He said
"He sure is" I said laughing. Maybe Zach was different he was trying to make me feel better even thou he's still hurting.
"Thank you Zach" I said smiling
"Your welcome" He returned with a smirk
"You know you're different then what I had assumed" I said
'And your assumption was…" He questioned
" Some selfish cocky guy who thinks he's all that" I replied sheepishly
"In that case I'm glad I proved you wrong"
" You're actually a really nice and sincere guy" I offered
"I know" He said smirking
Then someone knocked on the door. "Zachy poo I'm sorry I didn't mean too. Please I'm really sorry give me another chance" said the voice on the other side of the door.
