Chapter Four
AN: Sorry it's so short- Longer next time, KK?
CAMMIE
I held on to Zach's hand as we drove past the house.
I looked to see the door creak open and a blood covered Juliet walked out with three guys in black. Though, no normal person would have noticed this- I was a spy.
So I had to notice this. It was like my job… And Zach's.
We drove a little faster. And it hit me. Either they were taking Juliet hostage or…
"She was a spy," Zach growled, pulling onto the freeway. "A stupid spy. Tell me she gave you nothing."
"Only Kelly did," I shuttered. "And I believe she's dead."
Somehow tears ended up in my eyes.
"Gallagher Girl," Zach sighed, looking at me. "Don't tell me-"
"I knew them, Zach." I whispered. "I was this close to dying. If you didn't show…"
"But I did." He said simply. "I was there for you and you'll live."
"But for how long?"
He didn't answer me, and that was probably smart.
"Where are we going?" I tried again. Still, fuming… And scared.
"A safe house," He told me. "Hawaii okay with you?"
Despite myself I smiled. "Hawaii is perfect."
BEX
(DAY ONE OF SCHOOL)
I was pissed beyond belief. Cammie was gone.
"Where's Cammie?" Tina Walters asked me. "Because my sources told me she disappeared with that hot Blackthrone boy- Zach Goode."
I sighed. Should I hide it? Probably not. Someone was going to tell anyways.
"Tina," I said in the crowded halls. People stared, but moved on. But they were listening. "For once, your sources are right."
She stared at me, her pupils getting bigger.
"She didn't."
"She did," Macey added. "And she's going to get a pounding from us."
"That is," Tina said, tears glinting in her eyes. "If she isn't already dead."
ZACH
Hawaii is a wonderful state. You can blend in so easily with just a few hours of sun and a sun kissed tan. Not to mention a bikini.
Cammie looks amazing in a bikini. Though, I don't like the bright blond hair and the some-what slutty clothes.
"Hey baby," She sighed, kissing me and sitting beside me. This was the third week of Gallagher Academy if that's where we were going.
"Do you think the others are alright?" Cammie asked, looking at me with her big eyes.
"'Course," I told her. "Of course."
I looked around to see the beach that was usually crowded was empty. I looked behind me to see only our car in the parking lot. Cammie must have sensed it too because she mumbled.
"I want to leave, Austin."
"Don't fret, baby." I mumbled.
I looked around trying to see the perfect location. I saw something glinting from the trees.
The whistling in the air signaled one thing.
BULLET
I threw myself on top of Cammie and let the bullet imbed itself in my shoulder. Cammie snapped into action. Throwing my arm under hers and running to the car.
I ran with her and threw myself in the car. The sniper's bullets always hitting the asphalt right after our heels left the ground.
We threw ourselves into the car, Cammie at the wheel. She slammed the keys in the engine and threw the car into reverse. She pulled out of the parking lot at breathtaking speeds that would send cops on a frenzy.
The bullets continued to fly as Cammie took the opposite direction to the safe house.
No way are we going back.
"I'm kind-of glad we keep the luggage in the car," She said to me, trying to act like this was no big deal.
It was, but I didn't want to talk about it.
I crawled into the backseat and pulled out a state-of-the-art first aid kit and began the slow, painful, process of pulling a bullet from my shoulder.
HA! Now who do you think shot at them... Hmmm? COMMENT!
