Chapter 3
OMG! Have I told you guys how much I love you? 224 Hits and 129 Visitors in less than 5 days? And 7 review? Sooooooooo happy! Just for you guys I wrote this chapter as fast as I could.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed especially ello mate, Allie Goode and CreatorOfMyOwnLittleWorlds who gave me great name suggestions for the dude on the Ferris Wheel with Cammie and everyone else for being so encouraging! And hey, did you know that I had a weird dream last night about a Ferris Wheel? This story is haunting my sub-conscious! Anyway, enough about my issues, Before I reward you all with the next chapter I just wanted to ask you guys to look at the stories Cammie Lied by jess01231, Watch Out by Silverspear, Who Wants to Be a Princess? By Khart1997 and An Intern's Revenge by beacca714 in the hopes that they'll be updated faster! Although you should've read them already because they are so amazingly awestacular! You guys rock! Haha, you guys are probably sick of my nonsense so here's chapter 3!
Is this the longest ride ever or is God just trying to punish me? We had been on this stupid ride for over 10 minutes! Now normally I wouldn't complain about being on a romantic ride with a cute guy, but the cute guy was a spy (who probably knew my entire life story) when I didn't even know his name, I could help but be kinda creeped out. Not to mention the fact that he was gradually moving himself closer to me until I was squished against my side of the cart trying to move away from him.
"Sooooo…" I said trying to make small talk. "You never told me your name."
"It's Jason, but I go by Jay," he resonded.
"Okay, so I'll call you Jay if you call me Cammie and instead of Cameron."
"Deal," Jay declared.
"So I have a question for you, Jay."
"Shoot."
"Why were you so determined to go on the Ferris Wheel by yourself?" I asked.
He instantly reddened. "Well…um…you see…"
"I see what?" I questioned.
"Okay, well, the thing is that I…well…" Jay sighed. "That's it I'm just gonna come out and say it. I lost you and was trying to get a better view in the hopes of finding you easier."
"Oh." That wasn't the answer I had been expecting. Then again, what had I been expecting? "Well how would that be embarrassing?"
"If you'd been at my school as long as I have, you would never, ever admit to losing a tail. There, losing a tail is like saying you want to be a clown when you grow up. Everyone would look at you weird and you'd be the subject of ridicule. I'd have never admitted that to you if I'd been on comms."
On comms? Shoot. What kind of a spy was I? I hadn't even considered the fact that his classmates might have listened to our whole conversation. What was I doing out here if I didn't know what I was doing? Honestly, I'd thought this "mission" would be cake. Lose a couple tails, sneak into (and maybe even take down) a COC base or two… But in reality, I had no idea what I was doing. This kid had probably been tailing me for at least the past hour and I hadn't even seen him! And he was probably the same age as me! I stunk.
Finally, as I came to an end at mentally screaming at myself, the ride ended.
"Thank god that's over." I said to Jay. "I was beginning to think that we'd be stuck on that thing for hours."
"Oh come on! Was riding with me really that bad?"
"Do I have to answer that?" I teased. It wasn't that bad but I wanted to give him a hard time about it anyway.
"Holy crow, it's 3:00 already? I have to meet up with Mr. McGain."
I looked at him curiously.
"My CoveOps teacher."
"Oh, so I finally get to meet the infamous Edison students?"
"Well yea," Jay said in kind of a "duh" voice. "Our mission was to find you."
"I still can't wrap my head around that," I exasperated. "I mean I can imagine my mom and Mr. Solomon making Gallagher go all crazy to find me but why would a school who doesn't even know me put aside a whole CoveOps mission for me?"
He looked at me like I was the crazy one. "Cammie, don't you realize how valuable you are? Everyone is fighting over you! The Circle…Gallagher…Edison…even Blackthorn! Blackthorn may be a boys' school but they want you as much as everyone else."
"Huh?" I stopped walking and turned to him. "Why would they all be fighting over me?"
"Well, most of the schools just want you for bragging rights. To be able to say 'So what if you have top grades at you school? We have Cameron Morgan!' "
"But why? Why do all of the schools want me so badly? Why do they want to brag about me? Why does the Circle want me?" I asked slightly desperately (okay maybe not so slightly).
He smiled slyly.
"That is something you need to find out for yourself."
**PAGE BREAK**
We continued to walk along the boardwalk until we reached a gazebo built into the boardwalk. It was even made of the same driftwood looking planks. It looked almost like the beachy version of the gazebo back in Roseville. The very same one I always used to meet up with Josh at. And the one where Zach and I sat and talked on that CoveOps mission before running into Josh and DeeDee. And now I was here with Jay. Fantastic.
I sat on the bench within the gazebo reminiscing when I saw Jay from the corner of my eye. He was next to me and randomly flipped over one of the planks making up the bench. On the other side was a nearly invisible keypad in which Jay punched in a code. He did so rapidly enough so not even I could decipher it. He hesitated before pressing a red button. When he did so the ground started to shake beneath us.
"What the heck did you do?" I cried over the ruckus (Hehe. I love that word). I jumped up as the bench started to sink beneath me.
"Sit down!" Jay ordered me, but then added comfortingly, "Don't worry, this is supposed to happen." I reluctantly sat down next to him and we sunk beneath the sand. All I could think was; What the heck did I get myself into?
I'm soooooo sorry for taking so long on this chapter. I was aiming at doing this cuz I wanted to make it as perfect as possible but sadly, it didn't come out as well as I had hoped. Plus, I'm all depressed cuz I just watched Titanic. Best. Movie. Ever. But sooooooo sad. I bawled my eyes out. Why did Jack hafta die? I still don't see why Rose couldn't have moved over on the floaty wooden door thingy and then maybe Jack wouldn't have had to die! Stupid Rose. Strike that, stupid director. Or whoever the heck thought up the ending.
Anyway, sorry for the delay and thanks again for all of the amazing reviews. I be sooner with the next one! Oh, and please please please take a look at my one shot I Love/Hate/Miss You. And remember to review! Love you guys!;) Bye!
