A/N: Hey Guys! I know that in Chapter 1 I said that Cammie's dad died when she was 12 but that's not true. He just died about 2 weeks ago. For some reason it wouldn't let me edit it. Grrrr… Anyway poor Cammie! Please keep reviewing, thanks!

Cammie's POV

I can't believe I just did that. I ran to the nearest toilet and looked at my reflection in the mirror. My mascara was running down my cheeks, my nose was red. Man, I looked an absolute mess. I washed my face with the cold water. There, I looked a little better, right? Who was I kidding, it was my first day and I had just burst out crying in front of the most popular guy in school and shouted at him. It just had to be Zach.

Don't get me wrong I will never regret what I just did, he had no right to say those things. That's why I didn't tell anyone, because then you get all this "sympathy" but it's not sympathy, it's just people trying to be nice and treating you like you're a little kid because they've got something you've not. I heard the bell ring and the busy talks of students outside. I just ignored them all and blocked out everything. That was my hidden talent.

Zach's POV

After Cammie left I just thought. Thought about how hard it must be, thought about how strong she is and just thought about her. I couldn't imagine life without my mum or dad, and then it hit me. She saw it happen. Her dad's life just ending, just like that. In the blink of an eye someone who you love with all your heart, just gone. I shuddered as the image of my mum laying on a cold floor in her own puddle of blood and the worst thing… you couldn't do a thing about it. That was it. Game over, no more lives.

I replayed the conversation over and over in my head. No wonder she yelled at me. I was such an asshole! How could I be so stupid and inconsiderate? I had no right to say those things to her and on her first day?

I heard the faint buzzing of the bell signifying the end of class. I slowly gathered my stuff and sauntered out of the library. I had P.E. next, so did Cammie. Maybe I'd be able to apologise to her there. As I turned into the P.E. corridor I bumped into Liz, well she bumped into me, she was the clumsiest person ever.

"Hey Liz, have you seen Cammie?" I ask her desperately.

"No, you okay? You seem a bit worried?" she asks confused.

"I'm fine, yeah, I'm fine. What are you doing here?" I ask trying to change the subject. Liz doing P.E. is kind of a health and safety issue, for her and the class.

"Oh yeah! I'm calculating the speed of people running in mph then finding out their bmi." She says enthusiastically. Liz was one of the smartest people I know but thankfully she was easily distracted.

"Cool," Bex and Macey come out of the changing room "See ya Liz." I say as I barge past a group of jocks as I get to Bex and Macey.

"Guys! Have you seen Cammie?" I ask a bit too quickly.

"No, what happened?" Macey asks suspiciously.

Now I could have played this game two ways; one, tell them the truth and try to make them understand, or two lie and act like nothing happened. Bex did the glare or as I like to call "The Death Glare" because honestly if looks could kill I'd be in my grave right now. Too late, guess I'll have to go with one.

"Zach, what did you do to Cammie?" Bex asks with all seriousness in her voice.

"Well for English we had to ask each other twenty questions and it was all going fine then I asked her what her biggest secret was, and she said she didn't have one. So I said well obviously you do everyone does, she says I don't have one, then I say well Bex and Macey said that you were going through a "hard time" right now what is it?" Their faces dropped. "Then I realise what I said so I try and take it back but it was too late. Long story short, she tells me about her dad being shot and her seeing it, and then she just walks out on me." For some reason their faces weren't so much annoyed but…heartbroken?

"Oh…. My god…" Bex says in the voice when you find out your hamster just dies or something.

"What? That's what she told you, right?" my tone had hits of panic in it.

"No, she just said that he died, not that he was shot or that she'd seen it." Macey whispered.

"Holy shit." I muttered under my breath. Bex had gotten out of her weird trance thing.

"You absolute Dick! How could you? We told you to leave her but no, you had to stick your big head in this and ruin everything!" Bex shouted at me.

"I know, I actually hate myself."

"Oh my god, has everyone just went coo-coo today or did Zach, Zach the smirker, say he hated himself?" Macey asks, annoyingly she was kinda right.

"Goode! Why aren't changed yet!" Coach McPherson exclaimed.

"Sorry Coach." I say as I walk into the boys changing room.

I went to the changing rooms to get changed. Grant and Nick were already there.

"Hey man, what took you so long? You and Cammie having a make-out session?" Nick joked. I took it the wrong way.

"Fuck off man, I don't need this and she SO doesn't need this." I threatened.

"Wow, what happened?" Grant asked curiously, he'd probably never seen me like this. I scanned the room making there was nobody else here. I explained the whole thing like I had done for the girls.

"Oh crap, you've really done it this Zach." Says Grant as he sits on the bench with his face in his hands.

"I know right, and I actually really liked her."

"We better get going" Nick suggests sensibly. We all agree and head out to the hall.

Cammie's POV

When I walked into the hall, it felt like I was naked. Everyone was staring at me. How many people knew? Did he tell anyone? Am I naked?

"Miss Morgan! Why are you late to my class!" A fattish man in his forties asked me.

"I'm sorry, I got lost." I lie.

"Very well, but not again! I'm Coach McPherson and this block is combat, since you're late I've paired everyone up so just go on the treadmill for the period."

"Yes Coach." I say as I walk over to treadmills, head down.

I'm not the best runner, but with music pounding in my ears (Taylor Swift-Mean if you were wondering). It was a good technique to block everyone out. I had changed into my Hollister Tracksuit and my running shoes. Beads of sweat poured do my forehead (thank god I brought my towel). I almost didn't notice someone tap me on the shoulder. As I spin round, I nearly fall off. Bex and Macey stood there with sympathetic eyes. Well they knew. I stop the treadmill and take out my ear plugs. Here it goes…

"Cammie we're soooo sorry, we shouldn't have said anything to Zach, we were just trying to protect you from him but it really backfired." Macey apologises.

"You have every right to be angry at us but please forgive we didn't mean at all." Bex continued.

"How many people did he tell?" I ask quietly.

"Only the boys and us, oh! And Liz. I swear we won't tell anyone if you don't want us to." They really did sound sincere.

"It's okay, it wasn't your faults." I say anyway these were the only friends I had right now and I had to keep hold of them.

"Thank you soooo much Cammie, we will never do anything like that again." Macey says as all three of us do an awkward hug/huddle thing.

"Right okay folk, go hit the showers, class dismissed."

I know that was quite a down chapter I promise next will be a more up beat. Please remember to review!
