I would like to thank all the people who reviewed my story! Sorry for the late update!

I walked into the dinning Hall for breakfast. Everybody was seated except for Zach. To be honest I can't blame him, the guys have given him heaps since he smiled , because of this he hasn't smiled since.

Zach finally came to join us when I was half way through my cereal. Zach sat next to me as his arm went around my waist.

'Good morning ' Zach said while he poured himself some juice.

'Morning Zachy' Macey said with a wide smile. Zach stiffened at the codename which was given to him without any choice.

'Macey leave him alone' I snapped. I wasn't in the mood today. Today was going to big day. The last plans for getting Preston were being discused today and I wasn't in the mood for jokes at all.

'Sorry Cam' Macey said as she turned back to the conversation she was having with Alex.

'Are you alright Gallagher Girl' said Zach quietly. I nodded but Zach knew me better than that so I just said that I would tell him later. Once we were finished with Breakfast we went to the boy's room to talk. You couldn't really call it the boy's room anymore as it is full with papers and sticky notes for the mission.

'Okay so where is everyone at ' Zach asked. Last meeting Zach and I assigned jobs to each couple. Bex and Grant were assigned to equipment that we would need on the mission. At first Bex didn't want to work with Grant at all as she complained that he was to distracted to help her. Then Grant said she was to stubborn to let him help so he would just watch her hence being distracted. Both Zach and I ignored them complaining about each other. At one point we thought that it would be best if we just gave them different partners but a few nights ago when Zach and I finished training late we saw them together and surprisingly they were not fighting but laughing and smiling. We didn't say anything about what we saw that night. By the next morning they were holding hands at breakfast.

'Equipment is a check' Bex replied. 'All done' Grant said after Bex.

'Good Liz, Jonas' Zach asked.

Liz and Jonas were assigned to do all the techno things for the mission. I didn't want to assign them together but it made sence for them to work together. After a few days of spending time with each other they seemed to have become quite close. Liz told me that he was afraid of hurting her or putting her in danger as he was at the time in contact with the circle.

They are so cute when they are sharing a laptop together. One night they were asleep in the library and Jonas had his arm wrapped around Liz's waist while her head was on his shoulder and his head rested on top of hers.

'We believe that Preston is still in Rome' Liz said. 'We have eyes on him but we don't have any information on if he is in contact with the Circle' Jonas added.

'Okay has he been in contact with you Macey' I asked. Macey looked uncomfortable when i asked and I also noticed Alex stiffen at his position against the wall.

'Few emails nothing really' Macey replied softly. ' Anything different in the emails' Zach asked.

'I will admit that he writes less and he's not himself lately ' Macey paused. 'Preston's not with them , he wouldn't do that to me ' She said.

I was going to insure her that I thought he wasn't with the circle either when Alex spoke first.

'You could be wrong Macey' he said silently. 'The circle change people , it can only take a few simple words to change someone' Alex spoke as if he knew.

'You don't know him , I do and I really don't care what you think' Macey snapped. As soon as the words came out Macey mouth I knew she regretted them. Alex's eyes widened as if he hadn't heard right, but he knew he was wrong. He's face saddened deeply but for only a moment as he straightened up and walked towards the door. He stopped and turned to look at me.

' The jobs done , everything we need to make sure we don't look like us is ready' Alex said with a small smile. I returned it with my own little smile. He then turned to Zach with a smirk.

' I especially labeled your stuff with Zachy so there's no confusion' Alex said as he left the room.

Everyone seemed tense after Alex left the room. I shared a look with Zach that said ' Take the boys and leave because the girls seriously need to talk' look. Zach nodded.

'Ah... im going to go train before dinner, maybe check on Mr Solomon make sure he doesn't know what were doing , let's go guys' Zach said.

'We can't go see Mr Solomon though ' Grant said.

'Well you can go to the PE barn and practise sparing with Jonas , so let's get going' Zach said as he kissed me on the cheek and walked out with Grant and Jonas. I closed the door after them and turned back to look at Macey.

Macey had her eyes cast down looking straight at her hands which were rested in her lap.

' Okay Macey whats going on with you and Alex ' Bex asked. Macey looked up at Bex.

'There is nothing going on between us were fine'. Bex rolled her eyes.

'We know you better than that Macey' Liz said quietly. Macey smiled at Liz but I could see it in her eyes that she wasn't really okay.

'Macey' I said. ' You taught us well and we know when someone is having boy trouble' I said locking eyes with her. We all let out a little laugh.

'We were friends I guess but now im not so sure' Macey said.

' He defiantly cares about you a lot 'added Bex.

'Im pretty sure i saw him tense up when you mentioned the emails from Preston , that means he is jealous' I said.

' Yeah ' Liz said with a little smile. 'He could be really worried about you'.

Macey didn't agree with us as she listened but she never said that we were wrong either.

'What do you think Macey?' i asked.

I watched Macey really carefully as she considered her answer. What surprised me the most was when she smiled.

'He confuses the hell out of me' she said laughing. We all laughed along with her until a knock at the door silenced us.

I opened the door to show a tired looking Mr Solomon. He stumbled a bit before catching himself.

'Mr Solomon what are you doing here' I asked. He looked at me with pained eyes and I wasn't ready for the words that came out of his mouth.

'Its Rachel , your moms been captured'.
