Zach P.O.V

Joe guessed Bex was lying straight away. He might have just got up from a coma but he still was alert and more importantly Joseph Solomon. Why was she lying for me? I don't understand. Bex swallowed hard but there was still a confident aura about her. A flash of amusement crossed Joe's face and he shot me a sardonic expression. I roll my eyebrows at his expression and he raised his eyebrows, confusing me on how weird he can get even though he was on a hospital bed. I think my face was picturing a face of utter confusion and Rachel shot me a look of sympathy. I know you must be thinking why I was calling Ms Morgan, Rachel, no, before you jump to conclusions; Rachel and I are not in a relationship. I was in love with her daughter. I know biggest mistake I could have ever made. For all that could have happened, My Gallagher girl could have ran away with Jimmy. He was lucky. Cammie loves him, she could have never have loved anyone else. Her loving me was an impossible probability. I was the rude, cocky jerk that had publicly embarrassed her from day one. I smiled sadly. I should have let her go a long time ago; I was an assassin, not made to love people and especially Cammie Morgan. Abby looked like she was about to laugh of the situation, that was slowly unfolding in front of her eyes.

Joe looked at Bex, straight in the eye his gaze unwavering.

With a sad smile, he cleared his throat. He said quietly "I may be on a hospital bed, but I am still a spy and the best one around." Rachel rolled her eyes following Abby and Townsend who cleared their throats indicating their presence and their thoughts of being an MI6 legacy. British snobs. To hell with the English tea and queen. Joe looked towards the ceiling, teetering on the edge of insulting Bex.

"The sad thing is I am not upset that you're lying to me, I'm just upset that I will never be able to trust you again. I thought Abe and Grace would have taught you better, but what can I say, we tell lies to cover the truths. Ms Baxter, just because I woke up from a coma it doesn't mean that you can lie to me. Watch your mouth." Joe warned Bex. God, he was still a grouch even after the coma but for some reason I could feel myself cheering him on to insult Bex even further. I swallow down a laugh and I realise for the first time in ages (to be exact 5 weeks, 4 days 28 minutes and 30 seconds) I laughed. I missed her. I missed her a lot. I never realised before but my heart always belonged to her, I don't think I could have been whole again without her. Her smile, the small dimple in her left cheek, the way her hair swished when she walked past. The hint of annoyance when I called her Gallagher Girl and called Josh – Jimmy. Yes, miracles exist. I guess I do know his name. I mentally sigh at the chances of Cammie being mine. Zero to nil. They loved each other, no matter how much I wanted it to be, Josh was the guy she would always want to be with. The "sweet, funny" guy, he actually was a jerk, but what mattered I thought, it was all about Cammie. She was always his. She never did let him go.

Rachel's POV

Zach had a faraway look in his eyes. He was thinking about Cammie again. Whenever he did, his eyes would be haunted with regret and sadness. Everyone was watching him even Joe but he was lost within his own thoughts. He loves my daughter. He won't admit it obviously, but I slowly pieced together the shattered remnants of a person, when my daughter left. I loved him like he was my own on. He cried over Cammie, he didn't sleep over her; he didn't eat because of her because she wasn't here. That surely must be love. I smile. I know he thought that Cammie eloped with Josh but what were the chances of that happening. I smile. If my daughter didn't date him when she came back he would be a dead man walking. I clear my throat to snap him out of his reverie but he is still lost. Bex has an annoyed expression on her face, I think she expected Zach to stand up for her but that would be the last thing that would happen. Zach basically worshipped the ground Joe walks on, he would never contradict Joe for a girl, unless it was Cammie, I think

"Where's Cammie?" Joe asked, his eyes sweeping around the room. Bex beat Zach to the answer.
