Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated sooner, just to clear things up Zach, Bex, and Cammie's covers all are going into Junior year because Celia is and they needed to befriend her.


Chapter 24

"So can you come with us?" Celia asked as soon as I sat back down at their lunch table.

Just by looking around the dining hall I could tell Celia's group were the popular kids. They had the biggest houses, the biggest personalities, and the biggest allowances I'd ever heard of. And they had just asked me to go shopping with them.

I figured this was my way of getting an invite to Celia's party, but I had to tell my friends first. I told the girls I had plans with Chuck (Zach), and I needed to cancel with him before I could tell them yes.

"Of course I can come!" I told them, grinning with fake happiness.

Jen, Sarah, and Izzy all squealed, and Natalie and Katie launched into a conversation about all the new summer lines that had just come out.

By the time that day was over, Sarah and Jen couldn't come because of some test tomorrow that their parents were making the study for.

Celia and I walked to the parking lot after English to meet Izzy, Natalie, and Katie. Natalie and Izzy decided to go in Natalie's Lexus, so Katie, Celia, and I got in Celia's BMW.

After 15 minutes of talking about cheerleading, I decided to hint to Celia about getting an invite to her party.

"So what are your plans for the weekend?" I asked the girls.

"Well, we are actually throwing a party at my house. Only the cool kids are coming. My older brother and I are throwing it for an end of the year thing. Do you want to come?" Celia asked, almost as an after thought.

"Of course! Do you think Chuck can come? I need to get a new outfit!" I said, gushing.

"Yes! And tell him to bring any other hot friends he might have! We should totally check out the new dresses on 5th avenue!" Katie added.

After that we started giggling and gossiping about the cute boys and new clothe we wanted to get.

By the time out shopping trip was over, I was exhausted. I pretended to be ecstatic over the clothes I bought, but I honestly didn't care. I was ready to go back to the hotel and fill my friends in on everything.

Unfortunately, as soon as I entered the hallway with our rooms, I saw Macey and Nick making out in the middle of the hall.

"Macey!" I said, shocked.

"Oh, uh, hey Cammie. I won the bet!" Macey said, pulling away from Nick as soon as she heard me.

"Jez, Macey we're in a hotel! Get a room! So what, Nick takes you out to dinner this summer?" I said, going over an knocking on Bex's door.

"Sorry Cam. And yep!" Macey said, trying to look guilty. Nick just smirked.

I rolled my eyes and turned to Bex, who had an amused expression on her face. I looked passed her, though, and Grant was standing there, shirtless.

"Guys! Is anyone even trying to get an invite to this party?" I said, exasperated.

By this time, everyone else had gathered in the hall, so Zach rolled his eyes and ushered everyone into his room.

"Little tense from shopping?" Zach asked me, rubbing my shoulders.

"Nooo." I said sarcastically.

"Did you get an invite?" Liz asked me, cutting strait to the point.

"Yep. And they told me that Zach can come and he should bring any hot guy friends. Has anyone else had any luck?" I asked, looking at Bex and Macey.

"Ya. I did a little honeypotting on Owen and he told me I can invite one other friend. I guess we all can come then, because Cammie can bring Zach, and Zach can bring Grant and Nick. I can bring Macey, and Liz and Jonas can run the comms." Bex said.

"Perfect." Macey said, smiling at Nick.

"So what clothes did you get?" Liz asked curiously.

I threw the shopping bag on the bed and laid down next to them.

Bex, Macey, and Liz all crowed around the bags and stared looking through them, but Zach snagged the Victoria's Secret bag before anyone could go through it, and peaked inside,

He raised his eyebrows at me.

I snatched the bag back. "Don't say anything. Celia and Natalie said it would 'make Chuck happy!'" I told Zach, putting air bunnies into it.

"Oh, it certainly makes me happy." He whispered, smirking and kissing my cheek.

"Maybe we should give Cammie and Zach some alone time?" Macey suggested, smirking and pulling Nick out the door.

I rolled my eyes but everyone else followed them out the door.

"You know, I have really good stamina, but shopping is the one thing I cannot stand." I said.

Zach sat down behind me and I leaned into him. He started rubbing my shoulders. It was one of my few weaknesses.

"Don't worry, Cam, I know." Zach said chuckling.

He kissed my neck and I leaned back into him, completely relaxed.

"Love you, Cammie." He whispered in my ear.

I smiled lazily and whispered, "Love you too."

"Are you ready yet?" Zach asked me, sticking his head in my room.

"Almost. We have to keep up our covers until the party is over, which means I have to look perfect for Celia and her friends." I told him as I put on my eyeliner.

I was wearing a tight black mini skirt and a zigzag tank top that was purple, green, blue, and pink. I slipped on a pair of nude colored wedges and grabbed my bag.

As I got in the hall, Liz handed me a comms unit and I slipped it into my ear. She also gave me a necklace that had a tracker in it, just in case something unexpected happened.

"Wow," Zach smirked as everyone was filling into the hall. "You do look perfect. Did you put all your stuff in the car?"

"Yes. I checked my room again too, but I have everything." I told him. "You?"

Zach nodded. We had loaded everything into the cars to drive back to Langley after we grabbed Kent, so we wouldn't have to stop back at the hotel.

Liz and Jonas set up their computer monitors in a van, so we would all be close.

"Ready to party?" Zach asked me as he opened my door for me.
