A Sumer to Remember
Chapter 1
Cammie's POV
We were getting our diplomas like a normal high school would for the non-spy parents. Even though after they left we would have our real graduation but they didn't need to know that. My mom, the head mistress of Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women, called us up one at a time in alphabetical order by our last name. We clapped, with as much enthusiasm as we could possibly have, after each girl got their diploma.
The reason we were having a "normal" graduation was because Gallagher Academy might look like a school for snobby rich kids that their parents don't want to deal with, but that could be anything but true. Gallagher Academy is a school for spies. Our cover is just a snobby rich kid school. But that's how we like it. People don't come snooping around here very often because of the huge wall that goes all of the way around the property.
There were only about 30 seniors graduating so it only took 20 minutes and 37 seconds to get through everyone. Once everyone had their diplomas, my mom called up the valedictorian. That was me. I walked up with confidence on the outside but I was scared to death, maybe I shouldn't say to death given my line of work, but I was really really scared. I was the chameleon. I never was the person to stick out in a crowd. All eyes were on me in that moment and I felt more exposed than ever before.
I got reassuring glances from 3 of my best friends, Macey McHenry (yes the one that is Senator McHenry's daughter), Rebecca Baxter (but call her Bex unless you like being in pain), and Elizabeth Sutton (she likes Liz more but she won't hurt you if you call her Elizabeth), and started my speech that they all helped me write (and I also practiced it on them).
"Ladies and Gentlemen, students of Gallagher, our wonderful teachers, thank you for giving me the best 6 years of my life. Gallagher has taught me things that I would never have been able to learn anywhere else."
I saw my friends smirk knowing the truth about what I just said. "I thank you, teachers, for supporting us through all of our problems, and helping us to sort them out. Now all that is left is to get out into the world and help all of the people that need the help of all of the skills that we have learned here at Gallagher. I know that we will all be extremely successful out in the world. Now let's all get out there and have fun ruling the world."
Not literally just metaphorically but the parents don't know that either. We then threw all of our caps up into the air and I ran to hug my friends. My mom and Aunt Abby came up behind me and attacked me with hugs even though we would be having a real Gallagher graduation later after all of the non-spy parents left.
-Time Skip-
After all of the non-spy parents left we all gathered in the grand hall for our true graduation. We got to show off are sparring skills to our parents. And the Research and Development graduates got to show off how fast they can hake into each other's computers. No one could get into Liz's computer. Then we had one final dinner in the lunch hall where are spy parents got to eat with us.
We had steak with green beans and a baked potato. For desert we had crème brulee, my favorite. After dinner my mom when to talk to her old friends from the agencies and Bex took her parents for an exclusive tour of the building (showed them all of our favorite places to go and where every funny thing that happened to us happened, and where all of the secrete passageways were that she had found), so Liz, Macey, and I when up to are room to start packing to go home.
We hadn't talked much the entire night. The silence was starting to bug me when Macey finally spoke.
"I can't believe we are finally going out into the world to be real spies."
"I know I don't know how I'm going to keep it from my parents while I'm travelling and going all over the world for months on end but only working a minimum wage job when I am around."
"Think about me. I'm going to have to somehow get away from the campaign trail long enough to go on missions without having to tell my parents what I'm actually doing."
"Cammie you are soooo lucky you don't have to worry about keeping things from your parents because they know about the spy world." Liz told me.
"It's not always better guys. You at least don't have to worry about your parents being killed by some new threat like I do or your parents being worried about you being killed while you're away."
"True I guess there really isn't a perfect situation to live in when you're a spy is there?" Liz asked which really surprised us because Liz always seems to have the answers to every question you might have.
Once we got over our shock, me and Macey answered with "Nope" at the same time. Then we fell back into a comfortable silence as we finished packing away all of our stuff until my mom came bursting in with Bex right behind her.
"What is it Mom?" I asked a little more scared then I was intending to sound.
"Nothing wrong honey, I just have a big surprise for you four girls." She responded and waited for one of us to say something.
Bex got impatient with waiting for her to continue so she asked, "Well what is our surprise?"
"Macey's parents are sending you on a graduation vacation to Florida!" We all squealed and Macey started to pack all of our summer clothes into different bags then the ones that would be sent home. She continued saying, "I found out earlier when they asked me if I thought the girls could handle being alone in Florida for the entire summer and I told them that I thought you girls would do just fine alone. But I wasn't supposed to tell you anything they wanted it to be there surprise so please act excited when they come to tell you when they "pick' Macey up."
"Ok we will Mom! Thank you soooo much for letting me go!" I told her as I hugged her. She told us to get a good night's rest and then left to let us finish packing.
Ok so there is the first chapter sorry if it was confusing or anything like that. R&R! Oh and if you have any questions just ask. And the boys will be coming in in the next chapter. R&R!
