Chapter 6
We'd been at the Gallagher Academy for two weeks when she arrived.
We'd been there all alone, with only the staff. The Headmistress wasn't even here yet.
Until now, we spent most of our time decorating our room. (Which, I might as well add, was AMAZING!)
I was sitting on our window seat when the limo pulled up.
First woman to get out was unmistakably beautiful, even from all the way up here.
"Guys!" I yelled.
Anna, Louise, and Karina turned around.
"Come look at who's here!" I said excitedly. They rushed over.
"I think that's the headmistress!" Karina said anxiously. "Do you think we should go down to check it out?" She asked.
The others already were sprinting out of our room, and from the sound of it, down the stairs.
I took one more look out the window. I was about to turn around and follow my friends when movement caught the corner of my eye.
Someone else was emerging from the limo.
There was nothing really special about her. Light brown hair, kinda tan skin.
But there seemed to be resemblance between the woman and the girl…
I got up from my seat and started down the stairs. When I got to the bottom of the stairs, I finally saw my friends.
The woman who had just gotten out of limo was talking to them.
She didn't seem to notice me, even though I was standing at the top of the staircase, in plain sight.
" Louise, I'm quite sorry, but no. There are no guns permitted here at the Gallagher Academy." She stated. Louise frowned.
It took every once of strength for me not to burst out laughing.
Now, where is your fourth roommate? Melanie, I believe?" she said.
She turned to the staircase, and her eyes landed on me.
"Ah, here she is. Melanie, come down will you?" She asked, smiling at me.
I walked down the stairs. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms….." I trailed off.
No one ever told me her name.
"Morgan." She finished. " You may call me Ms. Morgan if you like."
She seemed kind, but I could tell that underneath her kindness lay secrets.
She was tough, but kind. And, just guessing here, but I had a feeling she was an amazing spy.
Cammie's POV
I was walking up the steps to the beautiful old mansion when I saw her.
Up in one of the highest windows of the school was the face of a girl.
At first I was shocked. I thought I was the only Gallagher Girl to come this early?
I looked back up to the window where I saw her, but the face was gone.
I finished walking up the steps to my school and I pushed open the huge double doors.
There, in the middle of the Hall, were three girls and my mom.
" Louise, I'm quite sorry but no. There are no guns permitted here at the Gallagher Academy." I heard my mom say to a tall girl with dark brown hair.
Standing next to her was a girl with dark hair, and huge pretty eyes.
And next to her a girl with light brown hair, and piercing blue eyes.
I didn't even notice the girl standing at the top of the stairs until Mom asked her to come down.
She was pretty, but not beautiful. She had brown hair, and what looked like brown eyes. She was the girl from the window!
But as she got closer I noticed that her eyes changed colors.
Like me.
"Oh! Here she is! Cammie, come here please. I'd like you to show these girls around." Mom said. "This is Anna." She said motioning to the girl with huge eyes.
"This is Louise." She said motioning to the tall girl.
"This is Karina" She said motioning to the girl with light brown hair.
" And this, Cammie, is Melanie." She said, motioning to the girl from the window.
" Oh, uh, alright." I replied. "Come along." I told the girls.
They followed behind me.
"How long have you been here?" I asked them suddenly. They seemed taken by surprise.
" Three weeks." replied Melanie, looking around. "Three weeks, of absolute boredom."
"I know what you mean." I replied. I did. I'd spent the last five years here. "It gets better when the others arrive." I said.
Suddenly, the Melanie girl turned around.
"You're a legacy."
It wasn't a question, or a sentence. It was a statement.
The other girls looked at me. But they didn't really seem interested in anything but the school.
They looked at me like I was used to. I was Cammie The Chameleon, wasn't I?
But Melanie, turned around and looked at me again. I could tell that, unlike her friends, she was a chameleon too.
Melanie's POV
I sat on my bed, unable to fall asleep. Anna, Karina, and Louise had all fallen asleep after Louise's 10 minute lecture on why she should be able to have a gun.
I decided to slip out of bed, and go for a walk down the hallway.
As I walked down the hall I tripped on a stone.
My hand reached out and grabbed the old torch hanging on the wall, and I caught myself.
Pulling myself back up, the torch turned 90 degrees.
Then, a short distance from where I stood a portion of the wall flew up.
I walked to where it was, and saw a tunnel where the wall should have been.
Teenage curiosity, or spy instincts, I have no idea but I walked into the tunnel.
Farther down the tunnel I thought I heard footsteps.
I followed the sound until I saw a shadowed figure.
Who else was out here? I ducked behind a wall.
The person looked around and kept going.
I silently kept following them.
Suddenly we both heard voices.
"No! No! That is not going to work!" The voice was male.
There wasn't a reply so I assumed that they were on the phone.
"Yes, yes they're here!" The voice said.
"Our plan will work! Now go. *click* " The person stopped talking.
I looked to where the person I was following was.
Wait! Was this my first ever tail? Sweet!
The person decided to keep on walking. I got a little closer.
Wait….wait a second…
"Hey!" I whisper-yelled.
I saw the figure jump then spin around.
"Don't worry. It's just me." I said coming out of the shadows to meet Cammie.
"Oh. Wait, How the heck did you get here?" she asked.
"Well…I kinda tripped and grabbed hold of this torch thing and it spun and a wall flew up, then-"
"Oh! Hahaha!" She laughed. "You know, the same thing happened to me a few years ago…"
I could tell she was trying to act like I didn't just here hear a conversation.
"What was it I just heard?" I asked.
Her face fell.
" I-I….Melanie, I have no idea." I could tell she wasn't lying.
"Wait!" She said again. " Did you tail me here?" She seemed genuinely surprised. Maybe a bit proud.
"Uh…. Yeah, kinda." I said blushing. "Sorry." I said.
"Don't be! It's what you're here to learn, right?"
I smiled, and we walked back though the tunnel.
Yes! Over a thousand words! Woot woot! :D
