the ring

Okay, so here's the chapter you guys have been waiting for. I have to eat dinner now, but i hope you enjoy it. Honestly, there's no need for a disclaimer at this point because if I owned the books, I would've made Cammie's name Abby and me and Zach would have already lived happily ever after. THE END! ONWARD!

Oh, yah, I think you probably realized it, but Zach and Cammie live together now.

I walked to the door, befuddled, seeing as it was 3 o'clock in the morning and my friends would be dead asleep. I opened the door and…

The lips that I grew so familiar to crashed onto mine. Zachary Goode. Mmm.

I felt him smile into the kiss. "Hi," kiss, "baby", kiss, "I missed you." Kiss. It was my turn to smile now.

"Aw, honey, I missed you, too. How was the mission? It went well, I presume considering you came back all in one piece. Well, as much as I can see, anyway." With a sly smile I snapped his waist band pretending to look in his pants.

"Hey, now. I only just got in 2 minutes ago. You must've really missed me." I rolled my eyes.

"Actually, oh random stranger whom I have no relation to at all, I had a boyfriend not too long ago, but he left me for some Spanish girl in Barcelona. I became so lonely that my friends and I went to a bunch of bars and I met up with random, horny, perverted men who wanted to get in my pants. Oh, but how I miss that boyfriend of mine." I sighed and then put my hand over my forehead dramatically.

"Well, in that case, Cameron Ann Morgan, you have been a very bad girl while I was gone. You know what that means, right?" I nodded and leaned in for a kiss.

I felt his tongue swirl over my teeth and I opened my mouth. By this point we were already up to our bedroom. He laid me down softly onto the bed while he remained on the floor. He was fishing through his pocket and I figured he was looking for a condom.

Crawling over to face him, I laid on my stomach with my chin in my hands and my feet swaying like a little kid. Waiting, I watched as he pulled a little velvet box out of his pocket.

"Well then, Zachy, condoms sure do come in fancy boxes now a days now don't they?" He smiled slightly and then got onto one knee. I gasped. Carefully and delicately, he opened the box and there was none other than il anello di perpetuo amore in the small blue box.

"Cammie. Cammie, Cammie, Cammie. I've loved you since the first day I laid eyes on you. The first day I heard your name I knew there was something about you. And for the longest while… I couldn't figure you out. And then that day in the tenth grade when I kissed you. You have no idea how long I had been waiting for that. Cammie, I love you, and if there was one thing that you could do for me that could make me the luckiest and happiest man on earth, is if you would just answer this one simple question for me."

I got up into a sitting position on the bed and ran a hand through my hair, trying not to let the grin I was holding back explode onto my face.

"Cameron Morgan, will you do the honor of marrying me and being with me for the rest of our lives?" And now is where I let the grin explode. I was so happy that I'm sure the joy was pouring out of my ears.

I pounced onto him and kissed him with more passion than could ever be described. There was more love in that kiss than more people can experience in a lifetime. "Yes, Zach. I do. I will, and I love you with all my heart. I will marry you." And with that we continued where we left off and all of our worries left with our clothes; spread out on the floor.

"DAMMIT, ZACHARY, YOU WILL BE THE FUCKING DEATH OF ME!"

"Yah, but you still love me, anyway! OUCH!" Well, most of them anyway.

End flashback

So that was about a week ago and I was thinking up a way to tell my best friends. Of course Zach, being the big blabber mouthed hunk that he is, (lol. I couldn't resist calling him that), told Grant, Jonas, and Danny, but they were sworn to secrecy from Bex, Macey, and Liz because Zach thought that it would be best for them to find out from me.

So here I was laying in bed with my fiancé, (God, how I love the feel of saying that), thinking up ways to tell my sisters. Five minutes later and I had the perfect idea. "Zach." I whispered, kissing his lips softly.

"Zachary." Getting louder, I playfully bit his ear when suddenly, "OH ZACHY POO!" Let me tell you, he never bolted out of bed so quickly. "I'm up. I'm up. What's the rush? It's only 7 in the morning and we don't have school. Mommy, I wanna sleep in."

"Oh, Zach, shut up. Damn, I love you. But that's beside the point. I thought of the perfect way to tell them." I whispered it in his ear and he nodded. "And this is why I am so in love with you."
