- Six Impossible Things -

Second - I, Cameron Ann Morgan, The Chameleon, lost.

"Remember, they only have to get lucky once." Mr. Solomon's voice rang through my ears. He sure did know how to make a girl feel at ease.

I stepped out of the van and into the streets of Roseville, Virginia. Except this time, I wasn't walking with Josh. Oh, no. I was walking next to a very different boy. Zachary Jay Goode.

"So, come here often?" He asked as he stretched out on the Gazebo steps, soaking in the sun.

"I used to, but then the Deputy Director of the CIA made me promise to stop." I said.

Zach laughed. I don't really get what was so funny about being forced to break up with your super cute boyfriend, but Zach found it hilarious. I was going to tell him that I didn't understand what was so funny about that, but then I realized I was on Comms. With Mr. Solomon.

"Ms. Bauer, you have the quarter." Mr. Solomon reminded her, "Begin."

Just incase you were curious as to why we were in town, we are playing spy tag. Which is really just passing a quarter between us spys. It's really quite simple, I'm not really sure why we do it anymore.

Zach looked at me and smirked, "I'm not going to kill you."

I smirked back, "Oh, I know. I just don't know if I'll be able to hold back from strangling you."

His smirk grew as he scooted closer.

I rolled my eyes and stood up, walking a few feet away.

"Watch ATM's, Ms. Bauer. ATM's mean cameras." Mr. Solomon said.

I saw Bex walking towards us, and pretended not to know her. Just looking and then looking away.

"Oh, sorry, miss," Bex said as she tripped into me. She slipped the quarter into my hand as I pretended to catch her.

"Excellent pass, Ms. Baxter!" Mr. Solomon said through the Comms.

I walked North, towards the movie theater Josh and I had gone to before. I didn't hear Zach's footsteps behind me, but I wasn't suprised.

I rounded the corner and walked straight into Josh.

"Hey, Cammie." He said, sounding awkward.

"Hi, Josh," I said, smiling awkwardly and quickly trying to think of an excuse to leave.

"How are you?" He asked, trying to start conversation. Apparently, he didn't have anywhere to go soon.

"Good." I said, because I was. "You?"

"Good."

I hate awkward silences. Too bad they seem to be happening alot with Josh now.

"Cammie! There you are!" Zach came around the corner, smiling at me. That is, he was smiling, until he saw Josh.

"Yeah, here I am," I said, "Josh, this is Zach. We are..."

"I go to school with Cammie." Zach said, smiling fakely and slipping his hand into mine.

Josh's eyes bulged, but I just acted like he did this everyday. Which he really didn't.

"I thought it was an all girls school," Josh said, confused.

Zach smirked like he had known he was going to say that. Which, he probably did. "My school is visiting hers."

Josh nodded.

"Well, Cammie. The van is leaving in 5." Zach said letting go of my hand and walking away. It wasn't until he rounded the corner that I relized he had taken the quarter with him.

"See you around, Josh," I said, turning and following Zach.

"Yeah, see ya." I heard him mutter behind me. Before he turned and walked the other way.

And even though it wasn't really a loss, because Zach was my partner and I successfully passed the quarter to him without Josh noticing, and he was right there, it felt like a loss.

A loss to Zach, anyway.

And that's exactly what Zach was thinking, too, because when I rounded the corner he was there leaning against the wall, hands in his pockets.

"So I believe that's a win for me." He said.

I just smirked and kept walking, straight past him and back to Gallagher.
