Chapter 1
My name is Cameron Ann Morgan, but I prefer Cammie. I attend the Gallagher Academy of Exceptional Young Women. I am a senior (finally!). My mother is the headmistress and my roommates are the closes things I have to sisters. First there is Bex. Rebecca Baxter is her full name, although I don't recommend calling her that. She is beautiful and one of the toughest people I know. Her parents are MI6's top spies. Next we have Elizabeth Sutton, but she goes by Liz. Even though she is a Gallagher Girl, she isn't the undercover type. Liz is a computer whiz and is more than likely the next Einstein. Last we have Macey McHenry, and yes she is one of those McHenry's. Gorgeous and bold are the best words used to describe her with her outspoken personality and killer fashion sense. She does anything to get away from her cosmetic-heiress mother and senator father, and if I was her I would too.
Anyways in the past 2 ½ years, we've been through a lot together between tough teachers, deciphering BIG secrets, being attacked by an international terrorist organization, and oh yeah boys. Not only normal boys, but spy boys who are more complicated than any. It all started during the second semester of our sophomore year when we had an exchange with the Blackthorne Institute for Boys. That's when I met him, and by him I mean Zachary Goode. Our relationship, well its complicated. I mean he seems to keep saving me and kissed me a couple times and his mom has been chasing after me so yeah we've been through a lot. I'm not exactly his girlfriend but really he just confuses me with his cocky smirk and his vague statements. Lately it seems as if I am breaking his walls and finding out who the real Zach is and I kinda love him.
It is now winter break and we have decided to stay at the school because it isn't really safe for me to be out and about this holiday season. My mom even pulled some strings so that Grant, Jonas, and their friend Nick who we haven't met are coming from Blackthorne. So of course Bex, Liz, and Macey are excited to see them. I'm just happy that I am actually going to feel safe again without all the glares from the underclassmen. So it looks like it is going to be me, Zach, Bex, Grant, Liz, Jonas, Macey, Nick, and my mom and Mr. Solomon will be stopping in from time to time to check on us.
So here I am the night after everyone left, and I still can't sleep. No sounds of squealing girls during scary movie marathons or cracks in the floor boards from people running around. No nothing at all except the slight snoring coming from Bex across the room. I quietly slip out of bed and walk down the hall. I begin roaming and soon find myself in the library sitting in front of the warm fire that is still burning. I hear someone walk up behind me, but I immediately recognize the scent.
"Zach?" I say almost as a question.
"Geez Gallagher Girl, I didn't even have to look that hard to find you," he says with his signature smirk plastered on his face.
"So you do come looking for me?" I say taking the smirk.
"Just like to know that you are safe and I protect you better than anyone" he had a true look in his eye with a serious look on his face. Heat immediately rushes to my face as my cheeks turn red. Zach sat next to me and pulled me onto his lap. We sat there for what seemed like forever as I was wrapped in his embrace. I kinda hoped I would never have to move. Finally he broke the silence," Why are you still up? Its late and normal people sleep,"
"I should ask you the same but whoever told you I am normal has some serious issues," he chuckled when I said that.
"Point taken, but seriously why are you still up?" he asked once more.
"I don't know. Just thinking I guess," I said, "What about you?" I looked up a little to see him gazing off into the flames.
"Same pretty much," a simple statement was all he gave me. We sat there for a while longer and just took eachother in. It seems as if we were still in the tombs and that was all we had left. He kissed my head and hummed a beautiful tune as sleep took over me and I slept a dreamless sleep in Zach's arms.
