Summary: Cammie and Zach finally became an item after they brought down the circle. But now, as graduation approaches, they might hit a standstill in their relationship. So I've been itching to write this and I've gotten around to it! Yay! Also, I'm on my summer break (Thank goodness!) so you can probably be expecting more material from me in the next few months. YAY! So the first chapter is pretty easy going. I haven't brought in much of the plot yet. However, I can guarantee there is much more to come. If Zach seems to nice, romantic, sweet, etcetera, sorry! I tried to mirror his personality in Out of Sight, Out of Time. He was so adorable in that book! Ok, maybe it's just me… I suppose 'hot' would be the correct word. Anyways, I will be updating soon. Enjoy my lovely readers!

Chapter 1: Cammie's POV

I laughed as Zach dragged me through the hallways of Gallagher, walking backwards so he could face me and grasping my hands tightly.

"Zach!" I tried again for the millionth time. "Where are we going?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out. Now c'mon! We are never going to make it in time if we keep going at this pace." He pulled me a little faster so he was jogging.

"What could we possibly miss? It's a Friday night at a spy school. Everyone is at Tina's James Bond movie marathon." Raising my eyebrows, I sped up my pace slightly to keep up with him.

"Everyone but us."

I rolled my eyes. "Obviously," I mumbled.

"You are so slow, Gallagher Girl. Aren't you supposed to be a spy?" He jerked me forward slightly, causing me to stumble and land on my knees.

I looked up to glare at him, only to catch him smirking. He offered me his hand which I grudgingly accepted. Then pulled him down beside me.

"Cam, Gallagher Girls are trained to act like 'exceptional young women', are they not?" He pushed himself up off the floor.

"You're hopeless." I groaned.

"Maybe so, but that is no excuse if we're late." He complained.

"You're the one that made me trip so-" I was cut off as Zach wrapped his arms around my waist and threw me over his shoulder.

"Zach! Put me down!" I screeched and banged my fists against his back.

"No. You're too slow. We're doing this the hard way." He broke into a sprint so I was bobbing up and down against him. His arms were wrapped tightly around the skin right above my knees. I had my hands braced against his back to keep my face from banging against his spine.

"Zach! I'm wearing a skirt!" I yelled, loud enough to get the point across but quiet enough so that no one nearby would hear.

"You'll get over it." He turned a corner. I clutched tightly to his shirt to keep from sliding off his shoulders.

Now, you're probably thinking 'Cammie, you've taken down an entire terrorist organization. How can you not escape your boyfriend?' Okay, well you got me there. I can currently think of eleven ways I could have slipped away from him, (One tactic involves an illegal liquid that I'm not allowed to specify on so we won't go into details) but I may have been secretly enjoying having him carry me through the school like that. Maybe. Don't judge me, I'm a teenage girl trained in the field of espionage! We have strange fantasies!

I think he realized the same thing, because it wasn't long before he laughed. "You like this don't you Gallagher Girl?" He turned sharply and I pulled even tighter on the balled up part of his shirt in my hands.

"What?" I scoffed. "Get over yourself Goode." It was at this moment I was seriously thankful he was facing away from me. This way, he couldn't see the deep blush creeping up my cheeks.

Zach laughed again and I couldn't help but crack a smile. He knew me too well. "Alright, we're almost there." Zach put one of his hands on my back and eased me down to my feet. I tried to give him a defiant look, but when I saw his grin I think I ended up giving him one of Liz's sheepish smiles.

We were standing at… the janitors' closet. Okay, now I wasn't expecting some big romantic picnic or anything, but this was pretty lame.

"What are we doing? Browsing for a new mop?" I turned back around to face Zach.

"Think again." He twisted the door knob and stepped inside, flipping on the light switch.

I didn't see anything special. The room was illuminated by a lone light bulb that hung down from the ceiling. The walls were lined with old wooden shelves that stored bottles of Windex, bleach, and everything else I'd expect to find. There were several brooms and mops in one corner, accompanied by some black dust pans. There was a box of rags in front of one shelf and a ladder leaning against the only bare wall.

"Zach, I'm thinking this is just a janitor's closet." I gave him a suspicious look.

"Yeah, it is." Zach walked over to the ladder and pulled it to the center of the room. He set his foot on the first rung and looked over his shoulder at me. "You coming or not Gallagher Girl?"

So I knew Zach was different, per say. Given the whole 'his mother tried to kill me and he went to a school for assassins' ordeal, I never expected him to be exactly normal. (Or anything close to normal for that matter) But honestly, I never took him to be crazy.

"Oh sure Zach, why don't we take a magical journey on the ladder of wonders all the way up to the mystical light bulb!" If you didn't catch it, that was sarcasm.

Zach chuckled. "Just trust me on this one."

"Fine," I grumbled and followed him up the steps.

He pulled down a ceiling tile and let it fall to the ground. I looked up to see that there was a key pad in the ceiling tile's place.

"You've got to be kidding me! How did I never find that?"

"It's alright Gallagher Girl. We already knew I was a better spy anyways. No need to be surprised."

I couldn't see his face, but I'm willing to bet my life that he was smirking, as always. I reached my hand up and punched his side.

"Ouch Gallagher Girl, that hurts!" He turned slightly to glare at me.

"You knew it was coming."

"Whatever." A light on the key pad blinked green and soon the small room didn't look as dank. A square of the ceiling slid away to reveal a bright blue Virginia sky.

"No way." I spoke, dumbfounded.

Zach stepped onto the top of the ladder despite all the stickers that warned such actions would result in possible death. (Oh yeah, us spies are true dare devils sometimes) He wrapped his hands around the edge of the opening and hoisted himself up easily. I followed suit and found myself standing on the Gallagher mansion's roof.

"How?"

Zach pointed a finger at himself. "Spy."

This resulted in me scoffing, even though I kinda thought he was really hot at the moment. He didn't need to know that though. I walked in a small circle, taking in the sights. Most of the view was obstructed by higher parts of the building, but one side had a perfect scene laid out. I smiled when I realized what Zach had been rushing for.

"So," Zach sat down on the ground and looked back at me over his shoulder. "Care to join me and watch the sunset?"

I smiled at that. "I always knew you were secretly sappy." I plopped myself down beside him, entwining our fingers together so that our clasped hands rested between us.

Zach ran his free hand through his like those hunky movie stars always do. (Yes, I just used the word hunky...) "You love it, don't you Gallagher Girl?" He smirked, again.

"Sure." I rested my head on his shoulder. The sun was nearing the horizon now.

"I knew it." He kissed my forehead gently. I sighed.
