Cam POV

Instead of heading back to the house, we went to MI6 headquarters; Townsend called ahead and everyone was expecting us. We were ushered into one of the conference rooms, almost a mirror image of the one one my team is based in (although without a ping-pong table). There was a video conference link up with the mission director from the CIA, the head of the CIA and the head of Interpol.

'What is the meaning of this Edward?' The head of Interpol groaned in a bored, unbothered tone. She tilted her glasses and slumped back into her chair

'Excuse me?' I snapped

'Cameron' Joe and Townsend warned, I ignored them.

'Who are you?' She asked, narrowing her eyes.

'I'm the person who pissed with the shit-show you call Interpol' I folded my arms

'Excuse me?' She sat forward, thunder in her eyes.

'What Agent Morgan means is that she's just encountered threats posing as Interpol agents who have information on an ongoing CIA/MI6 investigation' Joe said. He was calm and confident; a professional. Something I wasn't being right now.

'That's impossible!' She gasped

'Not quite' Townsend held up the mugshots of those we just arrested. Her eyes widened as she scanned the photos. The Head of MI6 looked on, almost amused.

'Well Helen, looks like your agency is up the creek'

'I wouldn't speak so soon Walter. Weren't you the one that paraded William Chase around?' She raised her eyebrow and smirked 'Looks like you don't have the best selection either'

'Enough' Bex snapped 'Both of you for one bloody moment put your sodding egos to one side and fucking focus on the fact that both you screwed up! And now both of you need to fix the mess your agencies created and the agent's lives that you've endangered through your incompetence!' There was silence. Bex's words flew through the cables and connected to the people on the other side of the world.

'I don't agree with your tone young lady' Helen said. Bex chuckled

'Young lady?' She rolled her eyes 'P-lease Helen, I could whoop your ass with one hand tied behi-'

'Thank you Rebecca' Townsend cut her off

'Agent Morgan and Baxter have been working on a case and today was meant to be a debriefing with Interpol' The mission director (who had remained silent this whole times) slid in.

'Why was I not informed about this?' Helen asked

'Maybe it's because you had a mole?' I suggested. Joe and Edward threw me a look. I smiled back at them.

'You were informed Helen' The MD said 'I personally emailed you myself'

'Can we just skip to the part where you all admit that you fucked up?' I snapped, growing more and more impatient

'Agent Morgan' The CIA director said 'I do not agree with your tone'

'With all due respect sir' I began 'You haven't the faintest idea about what I've had to deal with in this mission' I stepped forward so all three had a better look at me...a look at how broken I was. 'Thomas Chase was my partner in more ways than one, I heard through the comms that he was shot and I watched as the blood poured from his stomach on the kitchen table in our safehouse. Then he was carted off to hospital. After that I have to go undercover to rescue Agent Douglas, who none of us knew existed, and I was taken to an undisclosed location. After rescuing Camilla I realised how suspicious she was, and I'm still suspicious of her. Then we get William Chase and his band of merry men coming in asking fucking shit show questions. Then I break up with Tom, then get called back to the US for an interrogation. When I return to England, Tom dies. No-' I shook my head 'He doesn't just die. He is killed. He is killed by a drugged up bat shit crazy girl who gave birth to a kid who will now grow up without a mother or a father, and I'm the reason why. Finally I get told that the mission is wrapping up and all I have to do is answer a few questions from Interpol. Turns out they were just hired hands wanting more information' I shrugged 'I completely agree with Agent Baxter that both of your agencies screwed up, and I'm holding you both accountable. So what are you going to do?'

There was silence. Both of these bosses were so shocked to be spoken to in the way that I did, that they were stunned into silence. I smiled.

'If either of you need to need me in the next 30 days, then don't. I'm going away and I'm going to relax. You have thirty days to clean this shit show up, or I'm walking and I'll expose all of your secrets along the way'

'Are you threatening me Cameron?' Helen asked. I smiled

'No. I'm giving you a promise'

Zach POV

'I WARNED HER!' I shouted pacing up and down the kitchen

'Zach, calm down, Cam's safe. Bex said that they were going to talk to all the agencies and end it' Macey said, giving a slight shudder 'I would not like to be on the receiving end of Bex, Cam, Joe and Townsend all at once'

'At least she didn't go with those fake agents alone' Jonas added 'Imagine what would have happened'

'No thank you' I snapped

'Camilla's been transferred to a secure location' Liz said, typing away

'No sympathy for that bitch' Grant grumbled

'She has a kid Grant' I said 'I know it's stupid, but I promised to protect her and her child' I shook my head 'I don't like the idea of the kid going through the system. I mean, I know my mom was insane, but I had her and I would have gone through the system if she wasn't there. Who knows, maybe I wouldn't have met you guys or Cam...I would have probably been part of the circle and-' I cut myself off, not wanting to think about the horrible things that could have happened if I'd never gone to Blackthorne, if I'd never met Joe or if I'd never met Cam...

The door opened. I snapped my head up to see Cam, Bex, Joe and my dad coming back.

'Cam' I began, instead of speaking I enveloped her into my arms, holding her tightly and not wanting to let her go. Not ever again.

'I'm okay Zach' Cam reassured. I pulled back and studied her face, the small cut just above her eyebrow. The blood was dry. 'Bad guy' She shrugged.

'I told you to be careful'

'And I was. Bex and I were suspicious, she contacted Joe, then when things got messy she was there'

'I should have been there' I ran my fingers along her jaw

'The hero doesn't always save the girl' she reminded me. I chuckled and kissed her forehead.

'What did CIA and Interpol say?' Macey asked

'Ohhhhhh' Bex's smile filled her entire face, her eyes were wild with amusement 'You should have seen Cammie dishing it all out to them. She basically gave them thirty days to sort their shit out or all hell will rain down'

'Why thirty days?' Grant asked. Bex's smile (I don't know how, but it did) grew even wider, she beamed at everyone

'We have a thirty day, fully paid vacation all thanks to Cameron Ann Morgan' She exclaimed. Cam smiled

'Thirty days' I echoed. Cam blushed slightly 'I guess this means we can go on holiday?' I raised my eyebrow

'That depends on something' Cam rested her hands on my chest

'What?' I asked

'Where the hell can fit all 8 of us'

Author's note: Whoop whoop, it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. Cammie was not holding back when she talked to the mission directors of all the agencies. I respect her so much to pick herself up from being broken. I can't wait for the fluff filled chapters to come your way. So next chapter will be out Saturday, make sure you check my schedule on my profile for uploads over Christmas xxx

4EverAGallagherGirl: I love that every time I upload you love this story more and more. I love how you find parallels in my story that I never noticed... unless you're talking about him being shirtless BECAUSE THAT WAS TOTALLY PLANNED. The Circle aren't back. I can't wait to share with you what's coming up! xxx

MaddieMorganGoode007: Shirtless Zach is just perfect! You will find out about Camilla's baby soon. Everything changes when a baby is involved...xxx

Miss. L 2002: Grant is the male version of me, always thinking through his stomach. The worst thing is when my stomach rumbled in exams and I just had to sit there, knowing that everyone could hear my stomach having a party. I wanted to ground to swallow me up. Zach with his abs and cooking...yum...This story might be ending but I have so many coming up in 2018. Maths is the worst. Maths should be banned. I don't just have a new story, I have about 5...possibly more... I don't think this story will have a sequel, it might just be a stand alone. I've got plenty of curveballs still to come your way xxx

Dreamer0704: Thank you! Ummm I have thought of writing my own story and I am currently writing one, but I find fanfic SOOOOO much easier to write because I can read back over the story and think about what I could turn into a story. And I feel like I know the characters so well so yeah...maybe one day I'll have my own story xxx

Zachgoodet: Aww thank you. I just wish a shirtless Zach existed in my life 24/7 xxx

Smiles180: I just love how we seem so similar in our opinions. I hope you liked this chapter xxx

AllyCarterFan: I loved that Bex didn't leave Cam. And I love Bex's reaction in this. Love ya lots too xxx

Chameleondancer: Aww it's so good to hear from you again. Thank you so much, I try to upload on time and it's kind of easier now that I've finished the story. Cammie and Zach deserve some time to themselves...or in this case with everyone else on a holiday lol! Don't worry, answers will be found. Tom had everything on his watch/USB. See ya xxx
