Hey guys sorry it's been so long! I'll make it up to you later, promise! Hopefully this week, but I'm not positive. Sorry I had major writers block on this one, I swear I wrote it already but I just gah. I'm not even gonna start.

-We almost have 30 chapters! Let's make it special! :0)

Chapter 29

Cammie

I shut the dividing door and turned to face Zach. I could scarcely contain my grin at seeing his scared face, but figured holding it back would be worth it.

"Cam, really. I didn't mean to hurt you, I was just having a bit of fun. Please don't be mad at me, I'll do anything, I swear!" His pleas sounded so pathetic I felt like I'd kicked a puppy and couldn't pretend to be mad at him anymore.

"I'm not really mad at you anymore Zach, I was just yanking your chain." I rolled my eyes and shook my head as I explained. By the widening of his eyes I could tell that I'd really fooled him with my mad act, in fact he looked rather mad.

"I can't believe you would do this to me! That's a low blow Cam," mhm so he was mad.

"Well I was mad at you, it's not like I lied about the whole thing. I'm just not mad anymore Zach; it's really not a big deal. That's the thing with me, I don't hold on to anger long." I tried to explain, but his face got even angrier looking, oh how the tides have turned.

"Oh so you're not still mad at Josh for whatever he did to you?"

"Wow, talk about a low blow. Gosh." How did he even know that Josh and I have problems?

"You're my girlfriend Cam, well at least I thought you were. This is something that couples talk about you know, they don't just leave it up to the imagination. I've been in the safe house before Cam. I know you lived together." Stupid Josh and his stupid fixation on me, couldn't he have just moved on?

"Oh really? So you're breaking up with me because I didn't tell you that I dated Josh for a little bit? We're obviously not together now, so I don't see the problem." We were up in each other's faces now, and even though we were arguing my gaze still shifted to his lips every so often. Stupid hormones, now's not the time.

"You didn't just date Cam, you lived together!" He all but yelled as he backed away from me momentarily only to grab my shoulders and pull himself close to me. Before my face was buried in his chest I could see the look of self-loathing on his face.

"We didn't do anything Zach I swear. We were on a top-secret mission and couldn't risk splitting up. He was my first crush, and I just can't help but thinking about how my life would be different if I wouldn't have fallen for him and dropped my life at Gallagher just so I could follow him around the country. I mean I did find my father, so there was some good out of it. But still I have this feeling like I would have found him eventually anyway." I mumbled into his chest, speaking the words I'd never said to anyone before. He didn't say anything, just held me tighter.

"It's just…he was using me to get where he wanted to be. The Directors chair, and in my own way I was using him to get my father back. He gave me the only lead and hope that I'd ever had of my father still being alive. Only now, after he realized what he did, does he really want me to be with him." He still didn't say anything; he just rubbed slow circles on my back.

"I really shouldn't have cared about what he did in the first place; it's very unprofessional of me. It's just the principal of the thing. He was my first boyfriend; we went through so much together. He was the one who helped me rescue my father and Benji, but when we got home he just dumped me like I was trash." I grabbed two fistfuls of his shirt, but didn't have the slightest inclination to cry.

"I'm sorry Cam," he finally whispered in my ear. Unfortunately those weren't exactly the words I wanted to hear.

"It's not your fault, you have nothing to be sorry for." I pulled back slightly and rolled my eyes so he could see.

"I should've told you early though, you're right."

"Of course I'm right; this is me we're talking about." Aaand cocky Zach was back. Wow, that lasted like five minutes, impressive.

"Whatever, let's just go to bed. I'm beat," I said as I extracted myself from his arms and started walking towards the bedroom. I immediately noticed that he wasn't following me, and turned around to see what was up. "You coming or not?" He looked at me skeptically before replying.

"There's only one bed."

"What happened to the other one?" I'm pretty sure there were supposed to be two beds in each suite.

"The hotel had a bit of a mix up, didn't I tell you?" Yeah, you told me. That's why I'm so surprised smart one.

"Does it look like you told me?" So much for trusting Zach to do reconnaissance ever again.

"Sorry, there are some extra blankets and pillows in the closet I can use. I'll be fine." He looked rather sheepish at his error, and his black bangs fell into his eyes as his head turned down.

"No, you don't have to do that. We can share the bed….as long as you keep your hands to yourself." I mockingly pointed threateningly at him as he rolled his eyes. I turned and headed into the bedroom, my stuff was in the other room but Bex and I were pretty much the same size, so I decided to just grab a pair of her pjs for the night. As we were walking down the hall I could have sworn I heard Zach mumble "I make no promises," but that could've just been my imagination.

"Cam!" A voice yelled as I walked out of the bathroom with a disposable toothbrush in my hand ten minutes later, in an old t-shirt that must've been Zach's and a pair of soffee shorts I found in Bex's bag. Her pj's were, how should I put it…a little risqué.

"What?" replied turning to see Bex standing in the doorway to the bedroom. Zach was on the bed already dressed (he insisted on having the bathroom first) and unsurprisingly his nighttime attire consisted of a pair of loose gym shorts.

"So you two are sleeping together? Why didn't you just wear a pair of my pj's?" She asked looking over my night attire while giving me stink eye. Gosh we're already dating; I shouldn't have to dress up for him, especially not like that. Makes me want to throw up just thinking about wearing anything like that, how can it be comfortable?

"I'm not wearing anything like that to sleep, Bex. Never. Nie. Nunca. Nooit. Nikad." I was going to keep going, but I could see that she got the point.

"Well then. I just came to tell you that we're going to need to get out and start taping places tomorrow. Just be ready by six thirty okay?" She asked and at my nod she was gone. Well I guess we know who the leader in this team is, she's always been bossy. It kinda works for her I guess.

"I think she's mad at you." Zach said as soon as we heard the connecting door slam shut.

"Yeah probably, she'll get over it though." I shrugged it off and put my toothbrush in the trash bin, it was one the hotel provided as mine was in my bag in their room.

"You better hope." He replied and I nodded in agreement, Bex has a mean streak to rival all other mean streaks.

"Yeah," I yawned as I pulled down the covers and climbed in bed, careful not to touch Zach in the process.

"Night Cam," he yawned back and I smiled before saying goodnight to him too. Seconds later I could hear his deep breathing, signaling that he'd already fallen asleep. A couple minutes later I joined him.


"Morning Baby," a familiar male voice said from right beside me. I opened my eyes and didn't recognize the room I was in. It looked big, with gray walls and a white ceiling, a mahogany nightstand and matching dresser set were right beside me. The nightstand right beside my head held an unfamiliar picture of Zach and I, I was in a big white dress and he was in a tux, pretty sure that hasn't happened yet.

"You awake?" He asked leaning over to press a lingering kiss on my shoulder blade, the skin exposed from my big t-shirt that had fallen to the side.

"Yeah," I whispered out before turning around, right into his arms.

"Mhmm, I can't believe the kids haven't waked us up yet. We must've played them out last night." He whispered, his lips softly pressing against my cheeks at random intervals.

"What?" I asked, apparently my mind was not connecting to my dream. What kids are he talking about, ours? The photo on the nightstand made it seem like we were married, so it was a very real possibility that they were ours. Well, except for the fact that I never really wanted to have kids, at least not until I'm ready to get out of the spy business. I frowned a little and hoped that Dream Zach would be too preoccupied to notice.

"Yeah I didn't think it would ever happen either. I can't believe we agreed to babysit Grant and Bex's kids for a whole week! Especially since they're hanging out in Fiji, why didn't we just go to Fiji with them? Honestly, I'm glad we decided to not have kids till later, they're so much work." He mumbled as his eyes closed again, wow he must be exhausted.

"Yeah, but they're cute so…" He groaned and peaked one eye up to see me smiling and one of his signature smirks appeared on his face.

"You're cuter," he playfully grabbed me in his arms and smushed me against his chest.

"You're the cutest," I replied laughing at his fake hurt reaction, he held me tighter against him until it started to hurt but I was too preoccupied laughing to notice.

"Take it back," he growled playfully at me. I giggled even more and when he flipped me over and held up his hands like he was warning me that he was about to start tickling me. I shook my head furiously and held my hands up in a surrender gesture.

"Too late for that," he threatened with an evil gleam in his eye. I wiggled under him and gasped as his fingers started to wiggle up and down my sides. I was laughing so hard tears were running down my cheeks and I was begging for him to get off of me. He wasn't anywhere close to letting up when the unfamiliar kids ran into the room and started jumping on the bed, effectively throwing me out of my dream.


When I woke up my internal clock told me it was six in the morning. Thinking back on my dream last night, I was surprised to realize that I was almost…sad, that it ended. But then I turned around in bed, staring right into Zach's bright green eyes, I realized that my dream might not be so farfetched after all.

-So you like? Next chapter is going to be good! We're finally getting into the thick of things with this mission. I'm predicting that there's only ten or so chapters left, depending on when I cut the chapters off and how long they are ect., but there will be a sequel! I'm thinking about taking a month or so off though so I can pre-write some chapters before I jump into the thick of it so I can update more frequently. I'm not 100% positive on anything yet though.
