A/N: Hehe. I do SO much better when I write one-shots. I'm so sorry I haven't updated my other story – "Gallagher Girls Book 5!" SO SORRY. Please forgive me. So anyways, this is also a one shot (just like the other story I wrote – "Merry Christmas, Gallagher Girl."). The Circle of Cavan does not exist in this story. ENJOY:)
Disclaimer: OKAY. THIS IS FANFICTION. I REPEAT - FANfiction. Ring a bell? Okay, well Ally Carter owns the characters. And what do I own? Zach. Jk I wish I could own something THAT sexy;) Just the plot.
It was Halloween. A night where everyone celebrates by wearing costumes and getting candy. An opportunity for a spy.
"OMG. Girl. Look! I want this costume so bad!" Bex screamed. I got up off the bed I was laying on and walked over to Macey, Liz, and Bex looking up 'hot costumes' on Ebay.
"Pfft. That's what my costume was in 2nd grade," Macey rolled her eyes.
Bex glared at her. "Macey, not all of us were born rich." Macey pretended she didn't hear anything and turned her attention back to the laptop.
"Look! There's an 'Mrs. Albert Einstein' one for me!" Liz giggled, glad she had finally something to wear.
I watched as each of them ordered their costumes.
Macey poked me. "I'm picking your costume for you, Cammie." I glared at her and put my hands in my ears.
"No. I'm perfectly capable of getting my own."
"Uhm, then pick one."
I skimmed through all the costumes that were available.
My eyes widened in horror. "Macey, what strip club is selling all these costumes?"
"Relax, it's not gonna kill you." She shrugged it off.
A light pink princess costume caught my eye. Well, that is if it was actually a costume since it barely had any material. "Hm, what about that?"
"This one?" Liz pointed to the one I saw. I nodded.
"That's bloody gorgeous, Cam! Get it!" Bex beamed. I sighed and stared at the screen.
"Okay, and I'll order the express shipping. That means all the costumes should be here in about…2 hours!" Liz calculated. Then, everything was quiet.
"I think we should began with makeup," Macey started.
"And Cam goes first," Bex added, tugging on the sleeve of my tank top. There was no use fighting them, I've had to learn that the hard way. I walked to the corner of the room that was literally like a salon, with all the hair products and makeup sitting on a glittery mirror table.
I looked over my shoulder to see Liz taking initiative of her own face.
"Liz?" I was shocked.
She looked up from the mirror on her blush box. "Yeah Cam?"
"You – make up – no one forced anything?" I stuttered.
She shrugged. "You know how Bex is. So I cooperated. It's better than my butt being kicked later."
I focused and looked back at my body length mirror.
"And the finishing touch!" Macey voiced aloud. I turned around and both Bex and Macey were smiling at me with their hands on their hips.
"She looks beautiful! Perfect as a princess!" Bex sang, while I blushed. They then realized they had work to do to themselves and hurried to finish their faces.
"Oh gosh, Cam! Didn't Josh invite you to the Roseville Halloween Bash?" Liz realized.
I remembered then. It was when all us girls went to Roseville to buy some clothes for the beginning of the school year in September. I had run into him with my friends with me. He looked flustered, but still asked me if I wanted to go. I responded with a half excited, half uncertain yes. He grinned and told me he would see me there. Which meant he was expecting me. But what the heck? I'll bring my girls with me for extra encouragement. "Oh yeah…"
-2 HOURS LATER-
There was a man standing right outside the Gallagher gates, wearing a hat that said "Ebay Delievery Service."
"Mace! Bex! Liz! I'm going to get the costumes, cause he's here!" I yelled, hoping they would here. I sprinted through a couple of secret passageways and got to the gates in time.
"Is this the residence of a Macey McHenry?" He asked, confused.
"Um…Close enough. But yeah, these are the dresses, right?" I replied.
"Yes. That will be $379.99 please."
I grabbed money that I had in my pocket and shoved it to him. He counted the money.
"Ma'am? This is $400…" He gave me a look.
"Oh? Keep the change," I smiled at him.
"Thank you! And have a nice day!" He gave me a wink and then walked away. I opened the box to see four gorgeous dresses. Holding it underneath my arm, I ran back to my dorm.
As soon as the door opened, I had three of my roommates rushing up to me.
"AHH! Okay, okay, take your clothes first!" I exclaimed, raising my hands in surrender as Bex, Macey, and Liz grabbed their clothes as if the world would end in a minute.
"I think I've fallen in love!"
"Hehe, I can't wait to get in it!"
"It even comes with a fake wig!"
The three of them squealed in content. I rolled my eyes, and looked at the last one laying at the bottom of the box.
I gasped. "Can we put these on?" Macey nodded and pushed me to the bathroom. I locked the door behind me and slipped in, one foot at a time.
"You need help zipping up the back?" Bex asked.
"Yeah."
She helped me and I looked at myself. I wasn't vain, but I looked absolutely…gorgeous.
-30 MINUTES LATER-
We walked to Roseville as proud, cool Gallagher Girls. My mom, the headmistress had allowed all the Gallagher Girls to go have fun in town. There were so many people wearing costumes, so Bex, Macey and Liz forced me to walk with them. I assumed it was because I was a pavement artist, and could blend in even better than a normal day.
"Cammie!" Josh yelled. He saw through me, again. I gave a slight smile but kept walking towards Roseville High School. I have an almost-boyfriend, Zach. Now is not the time to flirt with the ex, I chanted to myself over and over again, as to not lose it.
"Thinking of Zach, Cam?" Bex pulled me out of my train of thoughts.
"Yes," I admitted glumly. "I haven't heard of him since the 'Have fun in London' note."
Just then, Josh grabbed my shoulder and I resisted the urge to flip him onto his back. He looked exhausted from running but took a deep breath and stopped panting.
"Cam. I thought that was you. Why didn't you turn around?" He interrogated.
"Well…I don't know," But truth is I did know. As if I would tell Josh though.
"Whatever, forget I asked. So you're coming to the party right?" he asked.
"Um, yeah. I hope you don't mind but I brought my friends with me," I gestured a hand towards them, seeing that they were laughing and talking to each other. As a spy, I knew they were still listening into every word Josh and I exchanged.
He ran his hand through his hair. "Uh, sure. No, I don't mind. I just hope you come as well…" he trailed off.
"Okay."
"Great! I guess I'll…see you there?" he asked.
"Yep," I simply said. He walked fast, the way we were going, towards Roseville High School.
"Okay, so now what?" I asked the girls, who stopped talking immediately after he left.
"We go to Roseville High," They all said in unison.
