Summer Holiday Whatever That Means – Chapter 5

Hey guys, I felt like this chapter was really long and I want everyone to know that I didn't originally plan this plot. I DON'T OWN.

So anyways, keep reading:)

CPOV

When we got back everyone was just finishing eating and Nick came and handed us our food, I quickly ate mine then got into a comfortable ball near Nick and Grant and fell asleep without hesitation.

I woke up with a jolt. I quickly looked at my surrounding suddenly seeing bright emerald green eyes, Zach's; as soon as I started to feel calm again I suddenly got scared. Why was Zach holding me?

'Zach, why are you holding me?' I whispered, you never know when you could be too careful.

'We decided to move because it was getting late and we didn't want to wake you.' He just smirked down at me, I really felt like wiping that smirk off of his face, would a slap work? Or maybe something else?

'Okay, whatever Goode, I'm awake now so you can put me down, you didn't need to carry me anyway I probably broke your arms under my weight.' I started to squirm around hoping he would let me down with no such luck.

'Well, Morgan,' he shot me an amused look 'you weigh less than a feather, you weigh practically nothing as if you could break my arms with your weight. And I'm not going to let you down so just stop squirming.' He then shifted my body so I couldn't squirm anymore and I had a feeling that if I kept trying to escape he'd get the others so they could restrain me.

'Why won't you let me down, Zachary?' I challenged him with the name, but I really just thought he'd get fed up and leave me alone.

'Cameron, just stop struggling, after all your injuries,' he winced at this point probably remembering what happened, 'you are in no fit way to walk and considering you are my partner Gallagher Girl you're stuck with me.' I was about to start protesting but he shot me a look and silenced me straight away.

I did the mature thing in this situation by sticking my tongue out and huffing. Wait; is this giving me a free opportunity to sleep? I'm so sore after everything that I could do with another nap and without another thought I just buried my face into Zach's chiselled chest and feel asleep.

'Do you think we should wake her?'

'She woke up a while ago but then fell asleep after being up for like 5 minutes.'

'Let's wake her but she can just stay here whilst everyone gets things and makes sure it's safe.'

'Zach, I need to talk to you so Nick you can stay with Cam, everyone else do whatever your job is.'

After listening to this I started to rub my eyes and stretch but I had a feeling that nobody else was around except maybe Nick. Once I opened my eyes the first thing I saw was a different camp with Nick sitting watching me near my feet.

'Nick? What're you doing here? What's going on?'

'Well finally you wake up,' he just rolls his eyes and chuckles, clearly he's heard about a story of the difficulties of trying to get me up and I giggle a bit too, 'anyway I'm here because Macey had to go and speak with Zach and I have to speak to you so it just made sense and we just moved camp but didn't want to wake you up which I'm sure Zach already told you?'

'Okay, what do you need to speak to me about?' I queried, I was honestly curious about what he wanted to speak to me about; I'd never really had a conversation with him.

'Cammie, I don't know if you know who I am but I don't think you do.' I just shook my head, I didn't really know him, 'I'm Nick Solomon, well that's not my name that I'm known by but that's who I am. Your mother and father had you and also had me, Nicholas Morgan, but they chose to let Solomon adopt me because they thought he needed responsibility. As it turns out I was too much responsibility and he let another couple adopt me, the Richmonds, one of the richest couples in the world and so I became Nicholas Richmond. I know this is a lot to take in Cammie but you need to know. At a young age I was taken to Blackthorne as Joe recommended me going there because I was 'a reckless nuisance.' When Joe told me the truth and that he was really my God Father he let me contact our Mom and I've been speaking to her since. I said that I should be the one to tell you the truth not them so I suggested this to Joe and he agreed. I'm really sorry you had to find out like this Cam, Macey's telling Zach now so he won't become a jealous boyfriend when we hang out.' Nick just hung his head down and I took a few minutes to ponder over this and absorb it all.

'Zach isn't my boyfriend.' Then I started laughing and then Nick did.

'That's the only thing you pick out from all that, really Cam?' Then we both started laughing again but then suddenly there was a sound mixed between sobbing and screaming, it took me a while to figure out that it was me.

I quickly ran into Nick's arms and no words were spoken, we weren't crying and we weren't laughing we were just simply being there for the other person.

I eventually just looked up at Nick and started to notice some similarities, his colour changing eyes, his hair was a bit more goldeny but it was basically the same shade but then I could see Dad's features in his face – the strong jaw and the slightly too long nose and then I started to notice Mom's, the ever-changing coloured eyes which I also had. I can't believe I didn't notice before we look so similar.

'Nick, as you can imagine this is a shock to me but I hope you understand that you cannot expect me to jump into your arms and become your long lost sister that you've always wished for,' I took a deep breath, 'I think that the only way to really fix this is by getting to know each other very slowly as friends rather than rushing into twin things. I hope you don't mind, Nick? Are you okay about this?' By this point I had let go of Nick and we just sat next to each other in silence.

'Cam, I'm fine about this, I was actually thinking the same thing – it's stupid to rush into things which we clearly shouldn't. By the way, I think Zach likes you and call it a twin hunch' we both laughed 'but I think you like him too and I'm not going into protective brother mode' another laugh 'but Zach is a good guy and I know you two would be perfect together. But I do have a question and it's about Macey, do you mind if I date her Cam? Like I know there's some kind of girl code that you might have to stick by or something like that.'

Nick was looking down at this point and I just convinced him that I'm okay with him and Macey dating and I wished him good luck because there wasn't a point trying to sway his decision.

Then Nick said he had to go and talk to Macey and he left, I guess this was because then Zach came back and started preparing some dry places to sleep completely avoiding my eyes.

I started thinking about what I should do about Zach, I wanted to speak to Macey and Nick but I thought that we need our space and they need to start dating so I crossed them off of the list. I obviously couldn't speak to Zach so he was crossed off. I then decided to speak to Liz and Bex because I hadn't really hung out with them and they were my oldest friends – Macey knew this and understood it so she was fine with it being the three of us sometimes.

I can talk to Grant and Jonas later but not just about Bex and Liz. I hope this goes well because everyone's insisting that I should date Zach but HE DOESN'T LIKE ME! Why does everyone think that he does? Just because he carried me?! That's insane! Grant and Jonas would also carry me and it would mean nothing!

Everyone returned to camp soon after Zach but Macey and Nick didn't come back until later and they both winked at me – clearly something good happened. I shot them a reassured smile and went back to thinking about what I should do.

When Bex and Liz came back we spoke for a bit about where we were and how long we had left but after a while they could see that I was drifting out of the conversation and they just told me to rest. Grant came over and just asked how I was feeling but I told him I was fine and that I just needed to rest up, he agreed, picked me up and carried me to where everyone was eating

'Princess Cam should feel better now' he practically shouted whilst I was almost in tears from laughing so hard – I saw Bex just smile, I guessed she wouldn't tell me anything so I made a mental note to remember to ask Grant what that was about and what's going on. As soon as I was practically thrown into my chair Jonas came over gave me my food and we just started talking about rubbish like we usually do but then he realised that I kept drifting away and he just said,

'Get some rest Cam, I think we're staying here tomorrow so you can do more and not just get carried everywhere!' then we just started laughing and then he went and sat down beside Liz and they started this whole nerdy conversation about something like a computer? My head hurt from trying to listen in.

Eventually I just looked up and caught Zach staring at me and I started to turn into a tomato and I shot him a quick shy smile before looking down. When I turned my head to look up at him again he was smirking and shaking his head. I suddenly felt waves of embarrassment come over me. He was making fun of me and he knew it!

Mace looked over at me and immediately shot a look at me and mouthed 'he's not making fun of you Cammie, don't do something stupid!' I just shook my head at her,

'Excuse me guys, I don't feel too good, I'm going to go down to the river, stay up here don't worry but if I don't come back in an hour you can get me I might've fallen asleep.' I looked at them all except Zach and I saw everyone shoot me a 'don't do something stupid' look but Macey also mouthed 'chill, I'll speak to you later'

Without another thought I ran down to the river and just sat with my legs dangling in it. Suddenly I heard footsteps and I knew it was Zach so I just sat there and he took off his shoes and socks and just joined me – without saying anything he wrapped his strong arms around me and pulled me close to his chest where I just buried my head in it and for once feeling warm and at home with his beautiful soapy boy smell.

PLEASE READ:

Firstly I think everyone should know that I'm English and writing 'Mom' was extremely hard but I wanted it to be entirely like Cammie so I felt pressured and it ended up like that.

I actually didn't plan on Cammie and Nick being twins but I thought it would bring the characters closer together.

I'm really sorry about not including a lot of ZAMMIE but I will in the next chapter, I'm also sorry for hardly having any Bex and Liz moments in there.

If you would like to read the next chapter you should totally review because I want to know that people do actually read what I write. T

he next chapter has already been started btw and I'm really excited because I want to fill it with more ZAMMIE.

Oh, and one more thing,
