Chapter 9:
Zach's POV.
Cammie and Sam were wresteling while Mike tryed to have a chat with me about Cammie.
"So you and Cammie" He started
"What about us?" I asked
"Well are you 2 going out?" He asked
"No. And it's non of your buisness" I said and as I finished Cammie and Sam seperated.
"You're good" Sam said
"Yeah I can be better if you don't leave" Cammie said
"Mike that's our cue" Sam said.
Mike and Sam left my room and Cammie jumped on my bed.
"I'm tired lets watch that film now" She sighed
"Sure" I said
I put the film in the dvd player then sat next to Cammie. She just instantly cuddled up to my side. I had to move my arm around her shoulders for it to be comfortable. We watched the film and then Cammie pushed closer to me. I looked down at her and saw that she was awake.
"What you wanna do now?" I asked
"Stay here. You're warm" Cammie said
"How's your eye?" I asked
"Better it doesn't hurt anymore but I have a feeling it looks bad" She said with a chuckle.
"It does" I said
"I'm tired" She said with a yawn to prove it.
"Well I will go and put your bed up then" I said starting to move.
"No stay here I'm comfy" She said
"Well sleep here then" I said
"Will do pillow" she said
The room then went silent and I started to draw circles on her hip. She eventually fell asleep on my chest. After a while I did too. I was rudly awaked by the sound of people awwwing.
I opened my eyes giving them a rub with one of my hands. My eyes adjusted to the light of my room and I saw my mum and dad hovering over me. I looked around and saw Camme was still snuggled up into my side. I instantly remembered what happened last night, with her snuggling up to me and telling me to stay put.
"Mum. Dad. Leave" I said
"Fine. Breakfast is ready." My mum said.
"No funny buisness." My dad said
Once the door was shut I looked down at Cammie. I could tell she was dreaming of something. But in an instant her face turned into a scowl. She started to shake in my arms. She was having a nightmare. I gently shook her and called her name. She eventually work up. As soon as she did she burst out into tears. I sat up with her in my arms and didn't say a word just huged her.
"Cammie are you ok?" I asked gently
"Yeah was just a nightmare" She said starting to calm down now.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked
"I don't know. I'll think about it through breakfast." She whispered.
"You don't have to if you don't want to I won't force you to" I said
She chuckled under her breath which made m curious.
"What?" I asked
"Well, whenever this happened at Bex's or Macey's or Liz's, they always seemed to pressure me into telling them. I never did. It's a change to have someone say that" She answered.
"Oh" was all I could get out. She looked up at me and kissed me long and hard. As soon as she pulled away the words just came tumbling out.
"Go out with me?"
"I'd love too, Zachy-poo" She teased
"Don't call me that" I said sternly
"Ok Zachary" She sighed getting up. I pulled her back down fast so she landed on top of me.
"Or that"
"But that's your name" She said it innocently.
"Well I prefer Zach and you know it" I growled. We were 1 inch away from each other now.
"But that's boring" She whined
"Well if you call me Zach like you have been for the whole time we have known each other then I'll make it more exciting for you" I suggested
"How?" She asked pulling back a bit
"Like this" I said pulling her down and kissing her. It soon turned into a make-out session on my bed. We seem to be having a lot of those. It was sadly interupted by my mum.
"Zach! Breakfast!"
Was shouted up the stairs.
"We better go" I said
"Yeah" She said standing up and walking to the door as I got up. We walked down stairs and sat dow at the table next to each other. Cammie purposly sat in Sam seat.
"That's my seat" Sam said
"What you gonna do 'bout it?" Cammie taunted
Sam just grunted and sat in the spare seat.
"Wow Sam backed down from a fight" Mu dad gasped
"Dad Cammie beat Sam at wresteling last night" I said
"Really? Who taught you?" As soon as my dad asked that question Cammie's smile was wipped of her face.
"Ermm... My Dad" Cammie finally got out.
"Did he teach you for a reason?" My dad asked
"Ermm-" Cammie coughed clearing her throught, "Yeah he wants me to be this perfect fighting machine. Rich and famous. But I went down the skating root and he didn't like that one bit" She rushed out.
"Why not hunny? You're a wonderful person" My mum said
"Because my dads buisness that he has... Well let's just say he wanted me to join and help him but it... Well it is n't legal" Cammie said. She seemed like she was getting more comfortable with telling this to my family.
"I hope you don't mind me asking sweety, but what does your fathr do?" My mum asked
I felt Cammie tense next to me. I looked over at her and could see tears in her eyes. I looked around the table and saw the rest of my family did too.
"Sweety you don't have to tell us" My mum said
"No I need to tell somebody" Cammie got out
"What do you mean? Your the only person that knows in your family?" Sam asked
Cammie just nodded.
"I've een bottling it up for years. He sends his staff to find me and well..." She pointed to her eye. My head snapped up at that.
"My dad is the leader of..." Cammie burst into tears at that point. Then just as she was about to say it someone burst through the door.
"Chiz man!" Cammie shouted at the top of her lungs as she instantly stood up from the table.
"You guys need to get back. I might as well show you instead of telling you" She said
"Oh Cammie dear. Your father has missed you so much." The woman at the door sneered
"Libby. Nice to see you again. But I seem to have made a connection with your last name" Cammie paused. The the woman came into the light and my parents gasped.
"Libby Goode" Cammie finished.
Mine and my brothers mouths dropped to the floor.
"That's my name don't wear it out" The girl spat.
"Oh I was just warning you that you are currently working for my dad, and trying to ill me infront of your own family" Cammie said.
"What?" 'Libby' stood up straight and in those seconds of confusion Cammie was in action. Soon Libby was on the fllor on her back.
"I've done my research. Your now in front of your real family. My dad will never be your family by blood or adoption. I hate him for adopting you. It would be better if you were still in the care home. Non of this would have happened. Libby you are killing yourself from the inside out. Don't protect my dad" Cammie almost shouted at Libby.
"Your research is wrong. My family is dead" Libby spat.
"So that's the lie he told you. He took you away from your own parents. Libby they are right here with your 3 brothers. Don't you see. You can turn your life aound instead of living like this" Cammie said more calmly.
"Maybe. We'll see after you're dead" Libby spat.
Then Libby pushed Cammie off of her and the instantly started fighting. It was hard to see what was happening. But before I knew it Cammie was in a head lock with a gun to her head. Back to the door. She looked me straight in the eyes as all my family and me screamed at Libby. I saw Cammie counting down from 3 and when she got to zero the gun went off. The next time I looked I was really really really and I mean really confused and shocked.
