Chapter 7

I looked at Zach, hoping he wouldn't tell JC it was lingerie, but knowing Zach, he'd find a way to make my life miserable. Zach looked up, and our gaze locked for a few seconds, until he looked at JC.

"You wear it in the winter, to keep yourself warm." Zach said. I looked at him shocked, hoping he'd see my expression, but he avoided looking in my direction. All of a sudden, Zach's phone rang and he picked it up.

"What's up Grant?" He asked.

"Really?"

"Can't, its JC day."

"No, I promised"

"Rebecca, and Cammie."

"Sure."

"Okay bye." Bex and I looked at Zach.

"What'd Grant want?" Bex asked.

"Oh, the football team's having a pool party at Darin's, to celebrate our wining game."

"Wait, your one the football team?"

"Yah." Zach seemed amazed that I didn't know.

"But you don't hang out with the jerky jocks."

"Well, they don't want Jonas hanging out with them, even if he's the plan coordinator, and Grant, Nick and I won't leave one of our guys out, but Jonas is invited too. Oh, and Rebecca, Grant wants you to come, and be his date." Bex was about to say something, but JC started to talk first.

"Zach, are you going?"

"No, remember its JC day!" I couldn't believe my eyes. Zach was giving up his time, just to spend time with JC. By this time, we'd reached my house and I was getting my bags out of the car.

"Zach you can go and I can go to Sammy's house. She has a pool!" Zach looked at JC.

"You sure?"

"Yes!"

"Okay, I'll call her mom, and see if you can come over."

"Yay!" JC yelled and went towards the house. Zach looked at Bex.

"Thanks for the ride, Bex." Bex looked at him, had a little smile on her face, and nodded. It was then, that I realized that Zach always said thank you to people. Maybe that's one of the reasons teachers think he's the perfect gentlemen.

"Thanks Zach, for not telling JC, although I was shocked you didn't make fun of me."

"Ya, like I'm going to tell an 8 year old girl what lingerie are." I rolled my eyes. Zach started to walk towards his house when he called out, "Oh and Gallagher Girl, I expect you t model for me!"

"In your dreams, Goode!" As soon as Zach was inside to house, Bex squealed.

"Oh my gosh! He so likes you!"

"Bex stop messing with me."

"No seriously, first he looks at you differently, and then he doesn't make fun of you when he has the chance, and then he's always teasing you!"

"Bex, this is Zach we're talking a-" I was interrupted by Bex's phone.

"Hey Mace!"

"Cam's place!"

"Umm, I'll ask."

"Cammie can Macey and Liz come over?"

''Of course!"

"She said yes!''

"Okay bye!" Bex looked at me.

"Hmm, we'll have to do something about you." She seemed to be talking to herself. Then her face lit up. She took my hand and pulled me to Zach's house.

"Hey Bex! What are you doing?" She didn't answer as she went up to Zach's door and rang the bell. Zach opened it. He looked at me and smirked.

"Couldn't stay away from me Gallagher Girl? Or did you want to model for me early?"I looked at Bex.

"Listen Goode, Cammie here is going to be your date to Darin's pool party."

"What?" I shrieked. Bex ignored me, and looked at Zach. Zach looked at me and smirked.

"She's got to ask me," he said looking me straight in the eye, still smirking. I almost got lost in them, but Bex spoke, pulling me out of the trance I was in.

"Come on Cammie, say it!"

"Zach... can... I ... go... with...you!" I managed to get out. This boy was seriously going to pay.

"Sure." He said and closed the door in our face.

"I really don't know what you see in him Cammie," Bex said.

"What?" I shrieked, for the second time in the last five minutes.

"Someone's in DENIAL!" Bex sang. I glared at her and walked back into the house. On the counter top, my mom had left me a note, saying she was at a case, and wouldn't be home for a least a week. I sigh, I thought that once we moved here, mom would stay put, and not go place to place, but being a top lawyer had its ups and downs. Bex looked over my shoulder and read the note.

"Don't worry Cammie, there'll always be someone here to keep you company!"

"Thanks Bex, oh and I have a question, why is Darin hosting a pool party IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINTER?"

"He has an indoor pool.''

"Oh, okay that makes sense."

"Knock, Knock, anyone home?"

"Liz, Macey!"


I looked at the mirror and had to admit, I looked HOT! Macey and Liz were going to the pool party with Jonas and Nick, and we were all getting ready. The thing is, Liz invented water proof make up, and so Macey dolled me up. She also made me wear the new swim suite we'd gotten from Victoria Secrets, and I looked good in it. It hugged me in all the right places, and fit me, as if it was made for me. It was a two piece, and the bottom part was like a very, very short skirt.

"Well don't you look Goode, Cammie!" A very suave voice said behind me. A voice that I'd gotten used to.

"What do you want Goode?"


Okay, I have a question:

Whose Better, Zach Or Hale?

Love,

A Runner At Heart
