Chapter 10
Zach stared at Cammie from across the room. She put beautiful to shame, that was for sure. But there was still something completely distant about her. They hadn't talked for weeks, and he didn't understand why. It seemed as though she was ignoring him for some unknown reason.
His eyes then wandered to Macey. She was gorgeous, stunning, beautiful, but could never compare to Cammie. Zach wondered why he chose her, and the only thing that could come to mind was that she was safe. They would never get serious- he knew that for a fact, but yet they still were exclusive and loved each other. He sighed. Actually, she was perfect for him.
Cammie tried not to face Zach, she knew he was looking at her, but she refused to meet his gaze. She had to move on, she couldn't hold on to him forever.
"Cammie, do you want me to help you with that Biology assignment?" Liz asked chewing a piece of broccoli.
Cammie just blinked at her.
"Let me rephrase that, do you want me to do the Biology assignment that is due tomorrow which was given out a week ago with you?" Liz said reminding her.
"Uh, yes please," Cammie replied grinning smugly.
Liz shook her head.
"It's really not that hard," Jonas said while steeling a potato from Liz.
Cammie nodded even though she felt like screaming. Zach was still looking at her.
"Why do you think he's looking at you?" Liz asked, seeing the discomfort in her friend's eyes.
"Beats me, but it's really bugging me," Cammie answered exasperated.
"I'm going to take a wild guess here and say that it's because you've been ignoring him the past week and a half," Jonas said giving her a look.
Liz snorted.
"Haha. You're hilarious Jonas," Cammie replied sarcastically.
Jonas chuckled, but abruptly stopped.
Liz just stared at the person walking towards their table.
"Shit," Cammie muttered under her breath, knowing who was coming over.
"Cammie, I think we need to talk," Zach said.
Cammie could have sworn his eyes were drilling holes into the back of her head. "We do?" Cammie asked, acting stupid.
"Yes," Was all Zach replied before walking out the door.
Cammie sighed, but complied anyway.
"Why have you been avoiding me?" Zach asked when they had entered a quiet and secluded location.
"I haven't been avoiding you," Cammie said dodging the question.
Zach raised an eyebrow.
"Okay. Well I have, but that's none of your business," She admitted.
"It's none of my business to know why you have been ignoring me?" He asked, eyebrows still raised.
Cammie didn't answer.
"Is it that hard for you to just answer me?" He questioned aggravated.
"It sucks finally being the one out of the loop doesn't it?" She sneered.
"Is this what this is about? You're angry with me because I didn't give you the information you wanted three months ago? Way to hold a grudge. What if I didn't have that information and honestly, what does it matter now? You obviously got the answers you wanted so badly!" Zach said, clearly exasperated.
"Oh get over it will you! I left, I came back. Who's the one holding the grudge Zach? And the only reason I'm not telling you why I'm ignoring is because it does not concern you!" Cammie replied, glaring at him.
"Again! It concerns me because, if you hadn't noticed, I'm the one you are ignoring!" Zach yelled at her.
"UGH!" She yelled back at him, taking a step closer to him and started to poke him in the chest. "You." Poke "Are." Poke. "So." Poke. "Aggravating!" Push.
Zach grabbed her hand and put a hand on her shoulder, pushing her against the wall. "What did I do wrong?" He asked pleading. "Why are you ignoring me?"
"Because I need to move on," She whispered staring at the ground. "I can't keep loving you."
Zach stared at her shocked.
"You've moved on, and now it's my turn. Honestly, one of the reasons I came back was to be with you. I was so scared about how you were going to react when I came back, and I was devastated when I realized you moved on. Remember that CoveOps assignment? I was the girl that you bought the ice cream for. I was the girl that you talked about Macey too. I heard what you said about her, the way you said you really liked her. It broke my heart and made me realize that you really have moved on. I can't keep thinking about you anymore, it's not fair to me. I can't love someone who's in a relationship. I can't get my hopes up, and wake up one day realizing that what I hope for is never going to happen," Cammie said, her voice breaking at the end. She broke out of Zach's grip and shuffled away from him.
Zach stared at her for a long time.
"Camm-"
"Cameron Morgan?" A powerful voice asked bursting into the room.
"Depends, who's asking?" Cammie replied after a moment.
Zach saw her mask go up immediately.
"You have to come with me," He said gesturing for her to follow him. "Any resistance will result in severe consequences."
"What's going on?" Zach demanded.
"That is none of your concern," The man said.
"Then at least tell me!" Cammie said backing away from him.
"I'm from the CIA. Cameron, you've been secretly hiding at Gallagher for three months now. Your stay was unauthorized. We just want to ask you a couple of questions," The man said while grabbing her arm.
Cammie tried to pull away, but was forcefully pushed out of the room. Cuffs were attached to her wrists.
Students in the hall stopped what they were doing and stared at the scene in front of them. Some whispered to each other, but most had a look of confusion on their face.
Cammie caught the look of sorry in Tina's eyes and ignored her. Her poker face never wavered.
"Cammie? Cammie!" Liz yelled, running up to them.
"Please step back," The man said.
"What's going on?" Liz asked Cammie, completely ignoring the man.
"Nothing, I'm going to be fine. It's okay Liz," Cammie replied trying to reassure the panicked girl in front of her.
Liz nodded while stepping back and allowing them to pass. She knew she couldn't do anything.
Jonas wrapped a comforting arm around her, glancing at the backs of the men holding Cammie.
When they reached the van that was going to take Cammie to the headquarters she looked up at the woman standing in front of it.
"Cameron Morgan, you have now been officially detained by the CIA. Any resistance will be used against you," The woman said.
The van started and soon they had exited the grounds of Gallagher Academy.
Cammie didn't even look back once. She didn't even care that the CIA had compromised her. All she could think about was the Circle and what they were going to do with her when they captured her.
The Chameleon knew the moment the man had grabbed her that her time was up.
