Zach POV
As soon as I enter the hotel room, Nick, Jonas, and Grant all jump out at me shouting like maniacs.
"CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?"
"MY BRITISH BOMBSHELL CAN KICK ASS!"
"THE SENATOR'S DAUGHTER? HOW?"
I cover my ears to block out all the screaming and shout out, "YOU GUYS NEED TO CALM DOWN!"
Then in a softer voice, I say, "We really shouldn't be surprised. They were suspicious before. As for the attackers, I have an idea who they might be, but I'll need to call Solomon first. Ok?"
"Yea," the boys muttered.
"Wait, didn't Cammie say something about calling Solomon also? What if she also knows Joe, I mean she could if she's a spy also," Jonas asks.
"I don't know bro but how about, for now, we don't worry about it and just try to figure out which school the girls go to," I reply.
With that said Jonas got out his computer and hooked it up to some flash drive while Nick and Grant got on the internet and started searching about Macey Mchenry. Which is pretty smart if I do say so myself, which I do. Macey is the senator's daughter and only last year I remember something being on the news about he being attacked and the press just about had a field day about that, so there has to be some information about what school she goes to.
Meanwhile, I call Solomon, as the phone starts ringing I hold my breath wondering what Joe will say. But what surprises me is that Solomon is currently on another call right now, which is strange because he is currently in England and it's like 3 in the morning over there. Hmmmmmm….I wonder who he is talking to?
"Hey guys," I call out. "Solomon isn't picking up. He's on another call right now."
"At 3am? In the morning?" Nick asks, suspiciously.
"That's exactly what I thought," I reply. "Did you guys find anything?"
"Nope, all the articles from the attack on Macey have been wiped and are no longer there," Grant replies.
"I couldn't hack and find anything on them. The CIA's firewalls have gotten a lot tighter and stronger." Jonas adds.
"Damn it, so we know nothing about these girls other than they have to be spies?" I ask frustrated. Why couldn't we figure this out?
"Yup," is Nick's response.
"How about we call him again in the morning and go to sleep for now. We've kinda had a crazy day and deserve some sleep," Jonas suggests.
Immediately Nick and Grant nod and even though I feel like I should get to the bottom of this, I too am feeling exhausted.
Tomorrow Cammie, I will figure your little secret out and hopefully, nothing is going to be brewing. Little did I know though that Joe Solomon already had something planned….
Joe Solomon POV
I was in the middle of sleeping when I heard my phone going off, usually, I would ignore it but this phone was different only Cammie, Zach, Abby, and Rachel could reach this phone. So the minute I heard it ringing I jumped out of bed to see who was calling. It was Cammie. Cammie…..CAMMIE!? WHY IS SHE CALLING ME AT 3:00am? Shit! Something bad must've of happened to them. Why is it always them?
I quickly picked up the phone and immediately asked, "Cammie, what's up? Is everything okay?"
"Ummm, we may or may not have a problem….." Is the response I get from Cammie.
I internally groan "may or may not," means that there is definitely a problem. "What is it Cams?"
"The Circle knows where I am," She replies.
I groan out loud this time. Seriously why did they have to find her?
"Also we've met some Blackthorne boys, ummm their names are Nick Cross, Jonas Anderson, Grant Newman, and Zach Goode. They were in the restaurant with us when the Circle came and they helped us fight them off. And before you ask, no they do not know what school we go to." Cammie rushes out.
I digest the information she gave me and then realize something, "You met Blackthorne boys!? How!?"
"Liz may or may not have hacked the boys to steal their original hotel rooms and swapped them with ours. Plus, Bex and Lz met them while they were checking in." Cammie explained while I groaned. Seriously, the girls weren't supposed to meet the boys until like October of their senior year. They always end up ahead of the game.
Then another thought occurs to me and I ask, "Why were you even in a restaurant with them?"
On the phone I can hear Cammie groaning in frustration, "Nick asked Macey out and Macey said she said she'd come if Liz, Bex and I would get a date too."
"Ohhhhhhh," is my response. I'm thinking about what I should do when another phone call comes through. I look at the I.D. and see that it's Zach. Zach. He's probably calling to inform me about the girls, I thought.
I groan out again and decline his call, he can wait. Right now I need to make sure Cammie is safe. Rachel, Abby and I were really hoping the C.O.C. wouldn't find her. We just wanted her to have a normal, relaxed summer but I guess that could never happen. Then an idea hits me, I chuckle and instantly start smirking. I can tell Cammie heard me because she cries out and asks, "NOW WHAT?"
I just chuckle some more and say, "You'll see, but tomorrow I want you girls to stay in the hotel room until I say otherwise. Is that clear?"
I can hear Cammie mumbling something under her breath and whatever she's saying definitely not pleasant. I grin and ask, "What was that? I couldn't really hear what you said."
Cammie groans and in a clear voice she says, "Yeah, yeah, I understand."
"Good, I'll see you tomorrow then," and with that said I shut the phone and chuckle.
Tomorrow will be interesting, indeed. Now I just have to make sure Rachel approves, but I'm sure she will.
Cammie POV
I yelled out in frustration after I shut the phone with Joe. That conversation was so weird. He was worried in the beginning, but then towards the end, he was being mysterious and strange. He started chuckling and I could tell he was smirking even on the phone. He told us to stay inside and that he would be dropping by in Miami.
I was so caught up in all my thoughts that I didn't hear what Bex, Liz, and Macey were saying to me.
"Huh?" I asked. "I didn't hear you."
"Liz asked what he said," Bex recapped.
"Well, he said to stay in our rooms only and not leave until he said so. He was surprised that we met the Blackthorne boys and in a bit of shock. But then he got all mysterious like he just had a great idea. He also hinted that he will be seeing us tomorrow so I'm sure he has something interesting planned," I summarized.
"Okay," Bex, Liz, and Macey all respond.
"So we basically have to sit here trapped in this hotel until Solomon says anything else and do practically nothing?" Macey asks.
"Yup, this sucks," Bex states.
"So how about we just go to sleep and see what tomorrow brings," Liz suggests. "It has been a long day after all."
We all immediately agree with her. It's about 11pm right now and I'm about pass out, which is surprising cause I usually stay up much later. Nonetheless, We are all in bed then the next 5 minutes. And all I can think as I'm going to sleep is…what do you have planned for us Joe?
Hey Guys! Once again sorry for the long wait, I'm sorry I really truly am for not updating for that long. I do have some good news though, I'm finally back to writing these chapters completely on my own, well for now at least. These last couple chapters were co-written by CammieAMorgan, who BTW is AMAZING. But I wrote this chapter completely on my own which really surprises me because of the writer's block I was dealing with.
Anyways I did have a question for y'all: Have any of you ever been to Miami before? If you could please PM me if you have visited that would be so helpful. I am struggling a bit with the descriptions of the settings since I've never actually been there before. Also, please review I'd like to y'alls thoughts.
SHOUtOUTS:
GallaghergirlsEmbassyrowFan: Does that answer your question? I thought Joe would've talked to Cammie first because he is very protective of her in my story and I thought it'd be nice to have Zach's phone call declined while Joe was talking to Cammie.
GallagherGirls13BYE: Yup the Gallagher Girls and Blackthorne Boys are starting to slowly learn about each other. I'm happy that your so excited to see where this story is going and are so supportive. I'm glad you liked that line, I did too! Unfortunately, I did not write it, CammieAMorgan
Miss. L 2002: Thank so you much for all the love, encouragement, and support you've given me it means a lot to me. I'm so thrilled that you like my way of writing, and I do enjoy writing from Zach's POV a lot. It's fun getting to imagine Zach's way of thinking.
Flash 2.0: Sorry it took me so long to update. I know exactly what you mean when you say that and I'm glad my story does that for you!
Thanks,
Smiles18
