Hey, if you're reading this then you must have found the file in my hidden desk drawer. Well, my name is Cameron Morgan. I'm twenty years old, I trained at a CIA high school and am on call for the occasional mission but haven't gone on one in a couple of years, since my dad died. My mom thinks it's my fault that dad died and rarely talks to me, when she does though, she is cold and I don't call her mom anymore since she basically disowned me. This is what happened my sophomore year at Duke University in North Carolina, the year my brother started college here. He isn't exactly the type to do dangerous things and doesn't know that we are a family of spies. I got in on a soccer scholarship and my brother got in on a football scholarship. I usually hang out with my roommate Macey McHenry, yes, the President's daughter, her boyfriend Preston Winters, yes, the vice President's son, and his roommate, Zach Goode. Zach and I have become best friends and whenever Preston or Macey spend the night at the other person's, we just have a movie night in the other dorm. We all live in the athletic dorms but the girl's dorms are on the lower two levels and the guy's dorms are the upper two. Zach is the best wide receiver in the country and the captain of the football team while I'm the captain of the soccer team.
Preston and Macey both play volleyball and Macey's cousin, Bex, is a year younger than her and coming here with my brother. Jonas and Liz are the RA's (Resident Advisor's) of the Athletic dorms and are the other two in our group. Jonas is Zach's cousin and Liz is my best friend from high school. Liz plays basketball and Jonas plays lacrosse. Anyways, it all started on dorm-set up weekend. A week before school starts. All the upperclassmen in the Athletic dorms have to come a month early for training camp while the Freshmen show up on DSU (dorm-set up) weekend.
Zach and I were hanging out in his dorm and tossing around a soccer ball when someone passed the open door just as the ball slipped out of Zach's hand and into the hallway. The guy tripped and dropped the box he was carrying and landed on his butt. We both stood up and walked over to help him up. Zach got the guy while I grabbed the box.
"Hey, you okay?" The guy shook his head and I handed him the box.
"Yeah, did you see what I tripped on?" I recognized his voice and grinned.
"Yeah, sorry about that. Mr. Butter Fingers over here, dropped the ball we were passing around." He still didn't notice it was me until Zach glared at me and threw me over his shoulder.
"Call me butter fingers one more time Cameron!" The guy looked up, startled.
"Zach! Put me down!" The guy started talking and I realized he didn't recognize me since I hadn't gone home over the summer.
"Why is there a girl in the guy's dorms?" Zach put me down and I punched him. He rubbed his shoulder and we were about to answer when Jonas came down the hallway, holding my soccer ball.
"Cammie! Why did your ball get thrown at my door, again?" I shrugged and the guy's eyes lit up in recognition.
"Sorry, Jonas. Zach dropped the ball again." Zach flicked my head and Jonas handed me the ball.
"Could you please take it outside? I don't want a repeat of last semester." I chuckled and Zach grinned.
"No problem Joey, we should help out with boxes. Since, we've already unpacked." Jonas nodded.
"I should probably just set aside an extra dorm for you guys. I don't need your movie night from last night repeated." We all shivered and then the guy grinned at us.
"Hey, I'm Grant, you must be the RA?" Jonas nodded.
"Yeah, what's your last name and what dorm are you in?" Grant smirked at me.
"Grant Morgan and I'm in 425." My eyes widened in horror since that dorm was right across the hall from Zach and Preston's. Jonas and Zach looked at me in surprise. I glared at Grant.
"Really, you couldn't get mom to call me or something? With a warning, 'Hey, just so you know, your little brother is going to be in the Athletic dorms with you'." Grant shrugged.
"I thought she called you, I guess you could check your phone or go downstairs and ask her." I stared at him in horror. Then a woman's voice sounded behind us.
"Grant, what's taking you so long? I have another load of boxes by the car, hurry up." I turned around and faced my mother, ready for her to yell at me. She saw me and her eyes raked over what I was wearing. Short shorts and a tank top with no shoes and Zach was standing behind me, wearing shorts and a muscle shirt, also with no shoes. I saw her gaze stop at my inner right forearm, where our entire group had all gotten sea green Trident tattoos because we were all really interested in Greek mythology last year. She saw the soccer ball in my hand and relaxed slightly. "Cameron, good to see you."
"Rachel." I responded curtly and Zach raised an eyebrow as Jonas stepped forward with his hand out.
"You must be Mrs. Morgan. I'm the RA for the guys dorms and don't worry, your son will be perfectly fine. I saw the soccer and football coaches, they pretty much coach both sports together, walking down the hall towards us. They saw me and Zach and grinned. The soccer coach spoke first.
"There's our star players." We smiled at them and then Coach Rawlings, the football coach saw Grant and grinned.
"Zach, this is our new running back, kid was best in his division in high school. Have you met him already?" Zach nodded but I answered.
"Coach, he's my little brother. He should be good." Coach cracked a smile and then Coach Gray interrupted.
"Definitely should be, your bloodline should be the best athletes in the world!" I chuckled and so did Zach.
"Thanks coach. When's the first regular practice again?" He rolled his eyes.
"You should know, we're using the practice schedule you made last year with Zach. Same as the football team." Zach and I looked at each other and asked at the same time.
"Are we going to play the end of the season game?" The coaches nodded.
"Definitely, but the lacrosse team wanted to join in, so we're adding a third game." We grinned and the coaches continued walking down the hall. I high-fived Zach and Jonas and Grant raised an eyebrow.
"You came up with the practice schedules?" I nodded and then Rachel had to ruin it.
"Grant, we should get the rest of your stuff unpacked." Macey came running down the hall with Liz on her heels.
"Cam! Tina Walters is waiting outside and she's pissed." I raised an eyebrow.
"What's she saying this time?" Macey grinned.
"That you put hair dye in her shampoo, her hair is bright blue! It's hilarious, one of the freshmen just got yelled at and it's looking like a fight." I started running with Zach and Jonas on my heels. Macey and Liz just behind us. Grant started walking down with Rachel. We made it outside and it was awesome. Tina's hair was like a beacon and she was staring down a freshman that was in a boxer's stance.
"Get out of the way, freshman. This has nothing to do with you." Tina was yelling and was drawing a crowd, the lacrosse team, basketball team, volleyball teams, soccer team and football team had made a huge ring around them with some freshmen scattered throughout. We pushed our way to the center and everyone backed away for us since we were all the team captain's, Preston joined us and all of the freshmen looked at us like we were crazy while our teams grinned, knowing it was going to be a beatdown. Tina saw me and Zach and grinned with her too white teeth. "There's the bitch."
"I didn't know you were looking in a mirror Tina." The entire soccer team had tensed and were ready to spring. The freshman went to the side of the circle.
"I wasn't, hey Zachy." She winked at him and he glared at her. The football guys all grumbled and scowled. Zach stood next to me with our friends spread around the ring to prevent our players from kicking some serious ass.
"Tina, what do you want?" He asked it in a bored tone and she pouted. It wasn't appealing at all. Tina wasn't in the athletic dorms but she was on the cheerleading squad, they all lived in a sorority, far from the Athletic dorms.
"I want to teach your little 'girlfriend' not to mess with me." We both yelled at the same time.
"WE AREN'T DATING!" She raised an eyebrow and I rolled my eyes.
"Tina, what do you think I did this time?" She focused on me and took a step forward.
"You put hair dye in my shampoo!" I rolled my eyes.
"No, I didn't, I haven't been anywhere near your house since I got back here a month ago for training camp." She glared at me.
"I know you did it!" I leaned my head back and looked at her.
"Where is your proof?" She growled and I knew I had her. She turned around and stormed off. I turned to the group and stood on a low wall. "No one gets in fights or anything like that. I don't want anyone kicked off the teams, we have a system and it works. It's the reason we're the best athletic college in the world, so I don't want to hear about any fighting involving you guys unless you want to clean the locker rooms with toothbrushes! Am I understood?"
"Yes." It came from everyone and I saw a couple of freshmen walking towards us and talking quietly.
"Can she do that?" The smaller one had blonde hair and bright blue eyes. The taller one had a deep tan with deep brown eyes and chocolate brown hair. She shrugged.
"I don't know, we should ask." They stopped in front of me as I jumped down and then I saw Grant and another kid walking toward us. Our friend group came over to us and all grinned. All the girls were around 5'11" and the guys were all around 6'3". The freshmen pushed their way to the front. The girl with a tan spoke first.
"Hey, can you make us clean the locker rooms with toothbrushes?" I smiled and Grant looked at me like I was crazy. Macey answered before I could.
"She can, she and Zach pretty much run the Athletic dorms, since they're the ones that run the entire athletic department here and are the captains of the best teams on campus." I glared at her and she shrugged. "It's true. You guys are like the golden children of the campus."
"Thank you, Macey." The girl turned to her and smiled.
"Hey Mace." Macey cracked a smile and hugged her.
"Guys, this is my cousin, Bex." The girls were both around 5'7" and the guys were 5'9". The blonde girl smiled.
"I'm Anna, Bex's roommate." Grant's friend introduced himself with a sly smile toward me.
"Hey, I'm Nick and this is my roommate, Grant." I laughed and so did Zach.
"We already know Grant. He's my little brother, emphasis on the little." We all cracked up and he glared at me. "Hey Grant, where's Rachel?"
"I think she went to get more boxes, we should go grab some." I rolled my eyes when she came towards us with a box in her hands. She was glaring at me and I rolled my eyes.
"Could you guys give me a hand, please? There's only a few more boxes." I glared at her.
"Actually, we were going to help Bex get settled in. Sorry, we can't help you." My friends looked at me in surprise but Liz realized who she was. The freshmen just stared at me in confusion, Grant sighed.
"Ladies, no reason to get hostile. You'll be separated again in an hour, so don't kill each other in that time." Rachel stormed into the dorms and I glared at Grant.
"Wrong choice of words little bro. Bex, where's your stuff?" She grinned and I saw a pick-up drive toward us. A tall guy that was around forty stepped out and Bex waved him over.
"Hey dad!" We all got acquainted with each other and all finished unpacking everything in an hour. Rachel left and Bex's dad left, turns out Bex's dorm was across the hall from ours. We were all going to our favorite pizza place and got a booth that would fit us all. We all ordered two extra-large pepperonis' and finished them quickly. Turns out Bex was on the soccer team and Anna was on the volleyball with Nick. When we heard that we all started cracking up since that was how our group started. We all went back to the dorms around eleven and Preston and Macey started going at it as soon as the freshmen were gone, so I grabbed my pillow and a blanket and walked upstairs. I knocked on Zach's door and he was wearing a pair of shorts without a t-shirt and I could tell he was about to go to sleep. He saw my pillow and blanket and gestured for me to come in. I did and laid the pillow and blanket on one side of Zach's bed while he turned off the light and crawled under the covers on the other side. We both fell asleep soon after and I felt Zach put his arm around me and I laid my head on his chest.
