Zach POV

'Excuse me, you can't go in there!'

'Watch me' I snapped, marching through the corridors not caring about the distasteful looks I was receiving. I burst through the doors into a small office. My father didn't seem alarmed by my entrance, he remained sitting on the sofa, one leg crossed over the other, reading some reports. 'What were you thinking?' I shouted at him. He flicked over the page not even glancing at me.

'Could you shut the door, it's creating a draft' He said casually. I clenched my fists, did he really not care, I slammed the door with so much force that the glass might have shattered. Sadly, since it was bulletproof, it didn't.

'You gave Cammie advice?' I hissed

'We had a talk, yes' He was still focused on his paper

'And she broke up with Tom' At this my dad put his paper down and looked at me

'What are you talking about?'

'Cam broke up with Tom after you two had a little chat' I didn't try to hide the anger in my voice. After my conversation with Grant, I realised that I wasn't upset that Cam said she never wanted to be together, I was pissed.

'Zach, Cam visited me after going to the hospital' Townsend spoke slowly, but his words wrapped around me in a haze, drawing the anger out.

'What?' I whispered

'Cameron came here last night slightly upset, we talked over some things and then she left'

'Was there anything that seemed out of place? A topic or a comment or anything?'

'She blamed herself for me and Abby not being together. She wanted to know how I stopped loving her, when I knew I should stop fighting as she put it'

'If she'd already broken up with Tom, then…' I slumped down on the chair feeling as though a weight was put on me.

'Then she may have been talking about you' He looked at me carefully 'What did she say to you that's got you so fired up?'

'That the only broken heart will be hers'

'Ah' Something melted in his usually cold stare. He leaned over and patted my knee. 'You need to find her' He said slowly

'Why?'

'Abigail and I ended things because of you and Cameron. Our broken hearts are much easier to manage than yours and Cam's ever would be. Take your breakup for example; you ran away and so did she. Abigail and I worked on the same task force months after we realised pursuing our feelings would lead to more heartbreak. Sometimes exes can be friends and other times exes can be enemies. It just showed what feelings are involved' He added 'I presume that Cameron has taken it upon herself to bear two broken hearts because she can't bring herself to break yours'

'How can I make this work?' I begged. My father smiled, a genuine smile that I'd only seen a handful of times; times when we really bonded as father and son.

'Finish what you started'

.

'Cam? Cam!' I called through the house. I ran into the back garden where everyone was lounging by the pool. 'Where's Cam?' I asked. The laughter that was filling the air died out quickly. Everyone shared looks. 'Where is she?' I repeated. Grant stood up and put his hand on my shoulder.

'She's gone'

'Gone where?'

'Back to the States. The director wanted her in immediately to talk about the case' He looked over his shoulder at the others. Bex and Nick nodded 'We found a correlation in Camilla and Will's timeline. We informed the director and he's impeaching both of them. Cam was summoned to see how we can clear up the mess'

'And Elijah?'

'In MI6 custody'

'So what's happened with the case?' I asked

'It appears that Will was dirty' Bex said 'He was laundering money to help this drug ring. He could monitor shipments and business stateside, and Camilla could do the same over here'

'Is Tom involved?' I asked. They shared a look again

'We don't know' Nick sighed 'But because of Cam's relationship with him, we think she was called in to be interrogated'

'But she's done nothing wrong!' I exclaimed

'We know that but they don't. She just needs to explain herself and it should be over with soon' Bex quipped 'Why are you interested anyway?' There was a glint in her eyes, challenging me.

'Because I love her' I said simply. Jonas fell into the pool, losing his balance on the edge.

'You love her? But I thought that that she said it was never going to happen?' Grant said

'She doesn't want me to break her heart again so she broke it herself. That way neither of us can be hurt'

'Will you?' Bex asked 'Will you break her heart again?'

'No. I regretted it back then and I regret it now. I never wanted to hurt her'

Cam POV

'Do you still love him?' Tom's voice was calm, caring.

'Please don't make me answer that' I begged. Tom looked away from me, he looked outside the hospital window, seeing the dark rain clouds looming closer. 'I love you Tom' I added

'But you love him as well?' He turned back to me. If I had this conversation with anyone else, they would be screaming, I would be screaming. But Tom as always was calm. I nodded slowly. I was still in love with Zach. Tom gave a solemn nod.

'I told you before Cam, we rescue Zach and if you want me to walk away, then I will'

'Tom-'

'Don't lie to me Cam, if you want to be with Zach then be with him'

'I don't know who I want!' I exclaimed 'All I want is to go back in time to Gallagher where nothing can hurt me, when I didn't know the Circle existed and all I had to worry about was handing in extra credit for Professor Buckingham!'

'You mean when Zach didn't hurt you and you were both happy together?' He raised his eyebrow and gave a weak smile. 'You've known it all along but all it took was me getting shot for you to realise your feelings' He chuckled 'Like I said, you deserve happiness. I hope you solve it' I nodded again not wanting to say something else. I walked out of his room without looking back.

'Everything okay?' The nurse named Christine asked coming along the corridor.

'Um, yeah' I looked back along the corridor thinking that Tom might have somehow followed me out. 'Can you remove me from Thomas Chase's emergency contacts? I don't think I'll be coming back here'

'You alright honey?' She touched my arm and this gesture from a complete stranger caused me to break down

'No' I whimpered, the tears falling freely

'Why don't you come with me and get a coffee?' She enveloped me in her arms and led me down the corridors till we got to the small canteen. I sat down while Christine retrieved two filtered coffees in polystyrene cups.

'Thank you' I wrapped my hands around the cup, warming me immediately.

'No worries' she took a sip of her drink 'So tell me, what happened with you and that handsome fella?' I shivered at her words. She raised her eyebrow but didn't say anything.

'I've made a decision, but I don't know if it's the right decision' I admitted

'Is it to do with Mr Chase?' She asked.

'And someone else' I grumbled

'Oh' she didn't deliver it in surprise, she gave a sympathetic tone, almost as if she understood.

'Yep' I popped the p and took a sip. The coffee wasn't good but it was warm and a distraction.

'My advice is to clear your head of both and then work out who you want'

'But Zach broke my heart and Tom hasn't!'

'Well' Christine began weighing up her words 'If you didn't care about Zach anymore, then you wouldn't have ended things with Tom' She said slowly. Her words washed over me. 'What makes Zach appealing?' I closed my eyes, blanking out the noises of the hospital. My eyes immediately summed up images of Zach; his cocky smile, his twinkling eyes, his hair that flicked perfectly. His body that would make anyone jealous, the abs that could break your hand if you punched them. I then thought about the all our time together, the moments that made me laugh, those that made me cry and most importantly, moments that made me smile. I don't think, out of all the years that I was with Zach, that I wasn't smiling at least twice a day. No matter the fights that we had, or how far we were apart, Zach found a way to make me smile. I opened my eyes and saw Christine staring at me expectantly. 'Well?'

'I can't imagine my life without him' I said simply

'Then Zach it is' She raised her cup to me.

'Yeah' I took another sip of the hot liquid. That was one person's opinion. I needed to ask someone who knew Zach and me better. Someone who knew us both for almost the exact same time. That someone was Townsend.

Author's note: Hello everyone! I just want to say how happy I am for all the lovely reviews about Zach getting married to a guy, I was worried that some people would go against it, but all your reviews reassured me! Thank you all! So we finally know what Cam and Tom's last conversation was, also Zach and Townsend had a nice conversation. I love their developing relationship! Also, funny story, I was at the doctors on Thursday and there was another person who was called Patricia Buckingham. I kid you not, I was so happy that all I could think about was telling all of you! Next update will be Monday, Cammie's in for a surprise with the Mission Director and we find out why Camilla was picked for the mission... See you all Monday xxx

4EverAGallagherGirl: As much as Cammie wanted to know the truth, I think a large part of her was terrified of what the truth would actually be. Yet Zach was completely honest (or was he...) and it brought her closure on part of her life. Thank you so much! I'm always glad to see your reviews and I love how much you make me think about what I've written and what the characters might be feeling. Well, Zach really wants to get back together with Cam...how much convincing will she need? Camilla is impeached and she's in custody...Cam will come face to face with Camilla soon...awww thank you so much, I'm glad that you are enjoying all of my stories (I'm currently developing ideas for a An Inside Job sequel. I can't say when it'll be out as I don't know exactly where the storyline will go...it probably wont be out till 2018) xxx

Ellie234: Here you go! Zach wants Cam back but she wasn't around to hear it. Tom and Cam had sad goodbye, but he only wants the best for her xxx

Kailee: Aww thank you so much! xxx

gymnast1150: The whole shotgun wedding idea came from Friends where Ross and Rachel got married. I wanted to do something like that where Zach got drunk and got married. I think the twist that he got married to a guy was just an 2017 idea of thinking and not many fanfics would ever place Zach with a man so why not! Zach met Camilla on this mission (you'll see more of Cam's evidence against Camilla next chapter) I don't think Zach was attached to her, I think that after what happened with his previous mission he wasn't going to let a girl get in his head again. I think that they were friends (Camilla wanting to be a little more) and then Camilla confided in Zach that she was pregnant so Zach wanted to protect Camilla and her baby because he couldn't protect Cammie and theirs... Wednesday's update is STEAMY and it will be full of Zammie, Zammie, Zammie. Now do you see why Cammie went to Townsend, she needed to an almost unbiased opinion and Townsend knew both of them for the same time (roughly). Oh don't worry, I'm always glad then I do see your reviews or your PMs, they really make my day! xxx

Smiles180: People do crazy things when they're drunk...I may have done some stupid things as well...oops. Did Zach's conversation with Townsend clear up your question? If not let me know xxx

Ms. L: Aw don't worry, i love when you review because you review in so much detail. I'm glad you liked that bit (It was my favourite as well). I almost permanently have Friends on repeat so I got that idea from the wedding. Thank you! I think that this is my most Zammie fuelled story and I love how raw all the emotions are, to me the characters feel so real. This is also the story that I've cried the most at when writing. Don't worry! I look forward to seeing you whenever xxx

Dreamer0704: I know...I miss Tom...xxx

Chameleondancer: A Zammie fuelled chapter is coming next week, it's steamy and probably the most intimate chapter I've ever written. They discovered some of it today! Cammie tells the Mission Director the truth about Camilla, and they'll come face to face soon...Zammie happens soon! Also Joe comes into the story! xxx

Zachgoodet: Well Zach is gorgeous and clearly both men and women are attracted to him xxx

Original Gallaghergirl: I felt so bad writing a vulnerable Cam. Aww thank you so much! I love doing a really serious scene and then adding light moments into it. Mwhahahaha Camilla's story is coming soon...and she may have done more than anyone expected...I don't know what d1 colleges mean but it probably sounds amazing so good luck and well done! I can't wait to share the surprises I have in store xxx

AllyCarterFan: AHHHHHHHHH You're back! I'm so happy when I see your reviews pop up. PLEASE READ WEDNESDAYS CHAPTER, YOU ARE GOING TO BE SO HAPPY! I miss talking to you as well! I can't wait for you to marathon the story! I LOVED THAT UPDATE! Dirty Laundry is one of my faves. Have you read Addicted To Rock? If you haven't you REALLY should! My story won't be over for a while though...I have a lot of surprises to come! xxx
