Hey guys! I got this awesome challenge from the GGFC forum, in the prompts, so I got some inspiration for this little fiction. Please read and review! :)
It was late at night in the Gallagher Academy. The teachers had resolved themselves to the fact that on this night, there was no one sneaking around in the majestic halls of the premier spy school. As professionally trained spies, they had right to believe so. They could sniff out sneaking teenagers faster than you could say "encryption".
However, the problem was that the girls (and boys) who currently resided in the Gallagher Academy were highly trained at doing just that-sneaking. And besides, with Liz's pink bunny slippers that detected footsteps of anyone trying to catch them sneaking out of bed, the odds were definitely on their side.
Why were four (usually) rule-following girls sneaking out of bed? The answer was quite simple-and also, tall, dark, and handsome. Yes, the Blackthorne boys were the ones drawing the girls out of their quiet room. Well, all except for Macey. She was in it for the amazing guacamole dip that the Blackthorne students were rumored to make when having a late-night rendezvous. Yes, Macey McHenry was beautiful, but she was also extremely weird.
"Are we almost there?" Liz whispered, or rather yelled, to be technically speaking.
"Yes!" Bex hissed, sounding more like a cat than ever. "Now be quiet, or I might have to deliver the new roundhouse kick I've been practicing to one of the security guards."
Cammie chimed in next, her whisper as soft as a breeze, "Are you sure they were telling the truth? You know Zach, he probably set us up. He's awful!" Cammie fumed at the last bit.
Macey muttered under her breath, "Don't you mean awfully hot?" Macey, Bex, and Liz snickered, and Cammie, whose thoughts clearly had been elsewhere, turned around, screeching as quietly as she could, "What? What are you guys laughing about? I swear I'll-"
Bex took that as a moment to change the subject. And, it turned out, she had a good reason for doing so. "Hey guys, look! I think I see it!" She gestured to a small little hole, barely big enough for them to squeeze through one at a time. "I wonder how the guys got in here. The space is only big enough for a girl's physique.
Macey, surprisingly rattled off. "There's a entrance in the boy's suites. As the east Wing is mostly unused, even before the boys came, not many people know that there's actually a secret passage there." The three other girls looked at Macey in disbelief. The tall girl shrugged. "Hey, I have my moments."
Bex rounded on Cammie. "You know every secret passageway in and out of this place. Why didn't you tell us when we walked by? I almost missed it!"
Cammie tried to hide the blush forming on her cheeks. "I do n-I do not know every single passageway! Besides, why would I want to stop you?"
Bex cocked her hip. "You may be a really good liar during Covert Operations, Cammie, but you know you're absolutely awful at lying to your best friends. If I ever decided to turn into a double-crossing agent, I'd wheedle everything I needed to know right out of you." The other girls gave her a look. She coughed. It wasn't good to joke about that stuff at a spy school that held over half of the U.S's most confidential information. She threw up her hands. "Ok, sorry, bad joke. Not planning to double-cross anytime soon. Besides, if I did, I know you girls would knock sense into me before that happened." The girls pondered that fact thoughtfully. Yeah, that was pretty true. "Anyway," she said, "We all know Cam is denying the fact that she's in love with Zach Goode."
And despite being part of the world's premier espionage institution, the other girls crooned to Cammie, "Looove…. Luvreeee… Cammie and Zach are in luvre….."
They didn't realize how loud they were being until a dashing boy with messy mahogany curls and devastatingly gorgeous green eyes climbed out of the tunnel with a wry smile on his face. "Me and Cammie are what?"
