I AM BACK FANFICTION WITH A NEW CHAPTER!
So I loved the reviews from last chapter and so happy that so many of you really follow and love this story. So what's new with me well I finally started my Japanese class and it's amazing! So far I've learned 20 characters in Hiragana and will soon learn a lot a lot more.
Who else is ordering United We Spy from B&N! I definitely want that exclusive epilogue and if you don't know, Ally has said if you buy GG6 from Barnes and Noble there is a special epilogue about what happens after the end. The book can be read without it it's just a lil extra.

Disclaimer: The amazing Ally Carter owns everything!
I'm also ready to get this chapter started so let's read…
CHAPTER 15 OF ATCD, SCDB!
Macey POV (AGAIN)
I followed the young billionaire heir out the hotel and used my inner-Cammie to blend into the people around me. He was trained in his specialty as a con-artist to know he was being followed; just not enough to know who it was and where were they.
He walked into conveniently the same café where I had met Zach, that could be a coincidence but I know from experience that in this field coicedence is just a myth.
I sat down in a table near him and brought out my phone and shades acting like the typical teenager bored out of her mind.
Hale whipped out his phone in frustration and dialed some number. I was too far away to hear the other person talking but I tried my best to understand the conversation based on Hale.
"Simon, I don't know what strange signal you found but nobody in this café seems suspicious enough to use a tracker on the houses in the neighborhood." Hale sounded upset or mad I couldn't tell. All I know is that someone was able to figure out that Zach was listening in on conversations and computers and traced him to here. The fact that Hale knew someone who got by Zach and possibly Liz, honestly terrified me a little.
The other voice muffled into the background and Hale sighed and sagged his shoulders like he'd had a long day.
"You know what forget it; call me later when you figure out where they are now… I don't know if it's the person who followed me, why would I?... Simon I've telling you for the eighth time I'm not coming back until I forget out who Arianna is!"
That one sentence changed everything. Hale probably had Cammie who was going by the name of Arianna. She was in hiding and he didn't know. OMG I found Cammie! My smile was so large and I swear I felt some tears trying to escape. Macey McHenry does not cry!
"I know Kat is probably mad but just tell her I'll figure this out and come home soon… Alright I understand… Yeah see ya later." Hale finally hung up and moved his fingers through his hair.
He got up from his seat, leaving some change and walked out the door. I followed him in hopes of finally finding my best friend.
CONTEMPLATED ENDING IT HERE BUT HAD TOO MUCH FREE TIME AND WANT THIS TO PROGRESS!
I walked around corners and different streets so Hale didn't get so suspicious.
I also entered the hotel a minute after he did so he wouldn't notice me as he looked over his shoulder.
I walked over confidently and stood next to him.
"Well if it isn't W.W. Hale the Fifth. Fancy meeting you at this hotel, I was almost certain you had a house in New York." I knew my approach shocked him and I got the perfect reaction from him.
He looked up at me startled like he didn't expect me to be in the same hotel with him.
He turned to face me with his hand tucked away in his pockets. "Macey McHenry and I what do I owe the pleasure of you following me to my hotel." Hale smirked and even I had to admit that Zach's smirk was way hotter than Hale's. Zach had spent years perfecting his, Hale on the other hand used it on occasions.
"Oh don't flatter yourself to think I'd follow you." Lie. "My parents are staying here and I have to follow them." Truth. "I just came back from exploring all of New York." Lie. "There's a cute little Wi-Fi café down the street that I just left, it was adorable." Half-truth half-lie. Yeah I was in that café but no it wasn't that adorable, I'd seen well.
I thought back to Mr. Solomon's first lesson to Notice Things and saw that Hale's eye dilated about .1293 cm as he realized he just left said café. Hale walked into the open elevator and I followed him.
He looked to the ceiling as if to ask why he was being tortured with my lovely presence.
"Sorry to disappoint but I still need to get to my floor. Oh actually my parents are busy and it's absolutely dreadful inside that room. How about I join you and we watch TV and other things teens do with no time on their hands." I smiled sweetly hoping to get the answer I was waiting for.
Hale hesitated and looked around thinking whether he should risk it and let me in or just let me break in later and I would do that and he knew that.
"Fine but just let me tidy up first." I stopped outside the elevator door. Honestly who says tidy up anymore like really.
I paced the door and listened in on how many breaths I heard inside the room. There were two though one seemed to be far as if in the bathroom. The heavier one who I assumed to be Hale was rushing off and I heard the footsteps reach the place where the other person was. I decided not to wait any longer and went into one of Cammie's favorite places to be in. The vents.
I followed the vents to the room I assumed was the bathroom. In there Hale was frustratingly talking to girl with hair my color. Her face was concealed but she looked super skinny and dark bruises in some places.
I sucked in a breath as she walked away from Hale and I saw my hair and Zach's eyes on the face I hadn't seen that last day in the halls of Gallagher.
The eyes looked up and I saw my best friends new eyes widen as she saw my shocked face up in the vents.
Just for fun I'm also putting in Hale's POV!
Hale POV (Skip back a few minutes)
I had gotten a text message earlier from Simon about a computer that was tracing and listening to people in the area. I went to the café Simon said but nobody in the place and anything that seemed like that on their screens.
It was a typical conversation and Simon asked me to come back or rather said Kat asked me to but I couldn't just yet. Especially now that I know someone is following me.
I was standing at the elevator when a familiar voice behind me said," Well if it isn't W.W. Hale the Fifth. Fancy meeting you at this hotel, I was almost certain you had a house in New York." I don't know how I should feel about meeting Macey McHenry here.
I found it odd that she's here while I have a girl who she possibly knows in my room. Coincidences weren't real in our world they were just something we always hoped for.
"Macey McHenry and I what do I owe the pleasure of you following me to my hotel." I smirked and turned around only to see hair that I now realized matched 'Cammie's ' perfectly. I guess I could see now where she took the eyes and hair from.
Macey stood there tall and proud like she always did. It was just her character and something you couldn't take away from her. Of course I knew there was something different about her that you didn't 'expect from senator's daughters.
I figured that out at the gala sometime ago. She said it was the school she went to and I remember them inviting Kat. I realized the symbol on the letter that lady gave Kat and the one in that picture Cammie had were the same. At least I now knew where the connection and what it meant.
"Oh don't flatter yourself to think I'd follow you. My parents are staying here and I have to follow them. I just came back from exploring all of New York. There's a cute little Wi-Fi café down the street that I just left, it was adorable." My eyes widened at her words. Remember what I said about coincidences and how they didn't' exist? I almost believed they did the first part of her story. I HAD seen something on the news about the Senator and his wife in this hotel, nobody mentioned Macey though. But that wasn't struck me, it was the fact that she just described the café where that tracker was found and where I just had my conversation with Simon. My mind flashed to the pretty dark haired girl in one of the booths with shades and a phone. Macey was the one following me, she must somehow know about Arianna or Cammie maybe.
The door finally opened and I walked in relieved to be alone that is until little Miss Princess joined me. 'Why me I thought to myself'. I looked over at her wondering why she chose this one and not the other one that opened next to me.
"Sorry to disappoint but I still need to get to my floor. Oh actually my parents are busy and it's absolutely dreadful inside that room. How about I join you and we watch TV and other things teens do with no time on their hands."
This surprised me for one, Macey doesn't just ask to spend time with you. She asks to spend time and get all your dirty little secrets. Also because I'm pretty sure she's used to being alone so why say she had nothing to do, in New York.
"Fine but just let me tidy up first." I said to her and walked into my room picking up random stuff to look like I cleaned. After that I rushed to the back and saw Cammie in there looking at the bruises on her arms.
She spun around to look at me wondering what was going on."Look I don't care who you are. All I know is you somehow know Macey Mchenry who is now in this hotel, outside this room waiting to come in. You probably ran away so I'd think now on what to do."
Cammie paced and all of a sudden looked up into the vent right above her head.
I don't know what she saw but the words that came next shouldn't have surprised but they did.
"Hello Macey."
I heard the rustle of the vents and the very own Senators landed in front Cammie in the bathroom.
IM ACTUALLY DONE!
Yes the actual ending to this chapter. So what do you think I kinda think this was my most successful.
So no worries I have a plan for this story and I think you all will be happy with how it all goes along, so no worries.
There will be some things from GG5 like the COC chasing Cammie for the list. Trying to make a good lead up for GG6 but my own version.
So question time
