Two weeks flew by, and Cammie started to get more worried. Zach had yet to call her or send a letter as he usually did while on missions. She had a sneaking suspicion that her husband wasn't on a routine mission liked he had promised her, but the chameleon tried not to stress out about it. Everyone kept reminding her that the baby could be in danger if she stressed out too much. Cammie was doing the best she could, but she missed Zach a lot. However, having Bex and Grant stay with her helped Cammie stay calm. She was slowly approaching her eighth month, and it was a lot harder to move around, not that she was doing much of that on bed rest anyway. Despite the doctor's reassurance, the baby continued to kick the crap out of Cammie. Despite the worries of her friends, the kicking didn't really hurt her unless the baby kicked her in the bladder or kidneys. In fact, Cammie found it reassuring since the baby usually kicked when she was having doubts.

Meanwhile, Grant and Jonas were frantically searching for Zach. His comms unit had been disconnected, and they couldn't his signal on the tracking device inside his watch. They traced back every step of the mission but always seemed to come up short at one point. Grant and Jonas were the only two people besides the director that knew what Zach was really doing. Bex, Liz, and Macey were all fed the same story as Cammie. The two guys knew the girls would've told Cammie what Zach really was doing if they knew. Plus, Bex had recently announced her pregnancy, and Grant wanted to keep her safe for a little while.

On the following Monday, however, the two spies had a breakthrough. A well-placed call here and there had led them to Zach. They were picking him up from the airport that afternoon. Grant and Jonas had been warned Zach was in a fragile condition, but they didn't care. The Blackthorne boys just wanted their friend home. Apparently, the mission had gone well. Grant hadn't been able to get any of the details so all they were sure of was that Cammie, Zach, and their baby were safe.

Zach woke up with a pounding headache and a sense of calm. The headache was from fighting the Circle, he assumed, and the sense of calm was due to the fact that the Circle was gone. He couldn't remember anything specific; it was like someone had erased all the details of the fight from his mind. Zach only remembered one thing: killing his mother. That little detail was so clear to him, and he could remember every moment of that fight. The last of which involved taking a gun and shooting his mother in the head. The memory filled Zach with a twinge of guilt, but he didn't regret his actions. If he hadn't shot his mother, he would've been killed, and Cammie would be alone.

He felt a pair of strong arms lift him up and carry him off the plane. Zach looked up to see Grant's face. He breathed a sigh of relief. He had gotten home. They were safe. The Circle was gone. These things repeated themselves in his head. He looked over next to Grant to see Jonas wearing a worried expression and holding a calculator.

"Man, what are you doing?" he whispered jokingly. Grant and Jonas looked relieved. Zach was okay.

"Oh, just trying to figure out how much trouble we're going to be in once we tell our wives what really happened," he answered solemnly. Zach's eyes widened.

"Oh, shit. Cammie. How is she…" He was cut off by Grant

"She's been good, dude. I mean, she's been worried about you, but we've kept a close watch on her," Grant reassured him.

"The girls are ready to disembowel you though," Jonas added.

"Why?" Zach asked with a raise of his eyebrow.

"They didn't buy your cover story like Cammie did. They think you just bailed or something," the nerdy agent informed him. Zach's temper flared up, but he just took a deep breath. He couldn't blame Cammie's friends for thinking he had bailed. The Blackthorne boy didn't have the greatest track record after all. Then something Jonas had said caught his attention.

"Why haven't they tried to track me down then?" Zach questioned suspiciously. Gallagher Girls were loyal to a fault. If they had thought he had bailed, they would've come after him.

Grant and Jonas exchanged a look. "Well, Cammie hasn't been feeling the greatest. Your kid keeps kicking the crap out of her, and she's really tired and sick all the time. Bex and Liz are really worried about her. They've barely left the house. Macey's had to go to events with Preston, but otherwise she's always over. The doctor said she should be feeling better soon. It's probably just the weather doing this to her," Grant informed him.

Zach paused for a moment before speaking again. "Get me home," he demanded. His friends just nodded and got him in the car.

Back at the Morgan house, Cammie was taking a nap while her friends watched a movie. Luckily, Bex had picked so it was Pirates of the Caribbean. Jack was just getting ready to be hanged when someone knocked on the door. Liz was the one who got up and answered it. Her jaw fell. "Zach!" she began to shout. Zach silenced her.

"I want it to be a surprise," he whispered. The Southern belle nodded. He crept into the house, Jonas and Grant following him. They walked into the living room, smirking at Bex and Macey's shocked faces. They said nothing, however, as Zach kneeled down next to the chair where his wife was sound asleep. He smiled. She was always gorgeous when she slept. Her baby bump was huge, overshadowing the rest of her body. Zach noticed she look tired and mentally cursed himself. She wasn't sleeping because of him. He gently shook her shoulder.

Cammie stirred from her nap. "No, let me sleep," she whispered.

"Okay then," a familiar voice responded. Cammie opened up her eyes and saw Zach. She lept up out of her chair and hugged her husband tightly. He kissed her forehead gently. "I'm sorry," he apologized softly. Cammie looked at his worried face and smiled.

"It's okay," she reassured him. Suddenly, Cammie felt a kick. Both her and Zach looked down at her baby bump. "Looks like someone knows your home," she mumbled.

Zach rubbed Cammie's bump. "Hey, little guy. How about you give your mom a break for a little while?" He turned to his wife. "Are you okay?"

Cammie kissed Zach hungrily. "I am now," she replied. And so the couple awaited the arrival of the child in safety.
