Another part of my, I'M SO SORRY! present :) did you know there is only 49 days until GG6?! 48 on the 2nd!
"You're not Zach." I said, dumb founded. Zach, or whoever he was, put his hands on his hips.
"Now what would make you think that?" he sounded hurt. Even his face was contorted into sadness. But a smile slowly crawled to his face. I shook my head, trying to clear it.
Abruptly, cloth covered my mouth and the world started to fade. I tried to struggle, but my limbs were failing. I fell off the bench. My last sight was "Zach" smiling deviously.

My head seriously hurt. It pounded every time my heart pumped. My eyes gradually opened and I squinted until my eyes adjusted to the light. My training kicked in.
I was tied to a metal chair that was bolted to the floor. The room was a standard four cement walled cube. I was facing a mirror that took up most of the wall in front of me. There was one light above my head that was swinging slightly.
The door opened, and Zach came it. At least I thought it was Zach. My heart fell when I saw his eyes.
"Will." I said with malice. Will leaned up against one of the walls and crossed his arms. He was dressing in dark clothes with a leather jacket.
"Cammie. Wasn't that a nice little date, don't you think?" He smirked. "Oh, and no wonder Zach was protective of you, and keeping you all to himself. You are quite the kisser." I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks. I scowled.
"Oh, did I strike a nerve?" he laughed. "It's amazing what colored contacts can do to a girl." He walked in front of me. He moved closer so that his face was inches from mine. His eyes shifted from my lips to my eyes. For a moment, he looked almost vulnerable. But then he moved his lips to my ear and said, "I know where Zach is."
My eyes went wide. "Where is he?" I struggled against my bonds. Will walked around me.
"Oh, you really do like him, don't you. Like him more than Josh?" he quipped.
"How did you know about-"
"As your boyfriend would say " he said. It was full of mockery. He pointed to himself. "Spy." I rolled my eyes.
"All you have to do is ask, Cammie." he played the sweet card. My eyes narrowed.
"Can I see Zach." I said through gritted teeth.
"Now, now." He pouted. "What would Madam Dabney say to your attitude? Try again."
"Can I please see Zach." I tried.
"Yes, of course!" He went out of the room for a second. He must have done something, because the mirror on the wall began to fade and I could see through to the next room.
The room was exactly like mine. It had four concrete walls, one hanging light, and one chair. The only exception was that Zach, the real Zach was in that chair. His hair was ruffled up and he was wearing the same clothes as the day of his competition. He must never had made it to his hotel room.
"Zach!" I yelled. But he didn't look up.
"He can't hear you." Will said, reentering the room. "Or see you." He added.
"What do you want?" I said. Tears were slowly sliding down my face.
"Aww." Will cooed. "I thought Gallagher Girls were as tough as nails." he sighed. "I guess they're all wrong." That send a sharp pain to my pride. What was I doing?
The Gallagher Academy doesn't teach young girls to whimper and cry when they get caught. They teach us how to fight back. I sat up straighter and rubbed my tears away on my shoulder. Will only raised an eyebrow.
"What I want to know," Will started. "Is who was on that list Mrs. Goode was after."
"Wouldn't you like to know." I spat. "I'm not telling you a thing."
"Oh, we'll see about that." Will turned to face Zach's room. There were now three goons inside. Zach had picked up his head and was looking at them.
They began to beat him up. He had no way of fighting back. He sat there and took it all, not like a man, but like Blackthorne Boy. I knew he wouldn't want me to break just for him. But I was silently screaming for him as the heat increased behind my eyes as I willed myself not to cry.
Suddenly they stopped. Zach slouched in his chair, he chest heaving as he breathed.
"I think that will be enough for today." Will said. "I'll be back later." Will laughed as he shut the door. The mirror came back.
I was left to my thoughts.
Thanks for reading! Review? Please?
