Bex's POV
During Cov Ops class I was barely keeping my eyes open I kept dozing off., thanks to the previous night. Nobody is allowed to take notes and Mr Solomon has been testing our memory more than ever. Over the last fifty nine minutes and twenty seconds he has discussing the snooper programs and the proper way to operate and avoid them. Meanwhile all the other girls are still clinging to the homemade (and extremely painful) way of fingerprint removing. ""That's all for today, ladies and gentlemen." I was talking to Cammie about the recent snooper program called Azarious.
"Bex, stay." Mr Solomon closes the door behind Cammie.
"Do you want something?" I ask concerned.
"No, but you are dozing off in class and slacking off. Is there anything bothering you?" he asks distressed. Oh, so he doesn't want anything except information. Hm interesting.
"Not really. Just bad dreams. Can I go now?" I ask in the I-HAVE-NOTHING-TO-HIDE voice.
"Tighten up." He opens the door and I walk out.
I walk into an avalanche of questions. But before they stop to let me answer, as if I were, I just let out a loud scream. "Bloody hell! What nobody dreams?" They presumed what it was about. So, there was no need to explain. . By now, all the nosy-bodies had left and I really need to talk to Liz and Jonas. They might help me figure out who Annie Golden is. There I spot them going up the Grand Staircase. "Liz! Jonas! Psst, I need your help." I jog towards them.
"What is it?" they both ask in unison
"I wanted to know if you could do a background check on this person." At the words background and check I knew they were willing to do it. "Annie Golden."
"Sure." Jonas says. I don't offer any explanations. Then Liz assures me far too quickly. "And we won't even ask why."
"I knew I could count on you guys." I thank them and run off. I wasn't that far off because I heard Jonas yell 'Anytime.' Then when I reach the suite I see a very upset Cammie and Macey.
"You've got some explaining to do." Macey insists. I didn't want to tell them anything yet. So I told them that when she was off with Liz and the rest I went to sleep. Then I heard someone in front of Gallagher Academy saying that her name was Annie Golden. They already knew the favor I asked of Liz and Jonas. And I told them that no one just goes on front of the Gallagher Academy just yelling their name. And I couldn't sleep wondering what happened. I was 'wondering' if I could have done something.
"It could have been nobody." Macey exclaims frustrated.
"And it could have also been someone." Cammie finally says.
Grant's POV
After my meeting with Ms Goode and Arnett, I head to the office to file in a report about how it went and what I said which was nothing. The building was closed so I enter through the back door. It didn't take long it only took a moment. Around two hours after I arrived to my apartment Jezebel came knocking on my door. I scram out of the kitchen worrying that my food might burn. "Hi, come on in?" I say before she says anything.
"Tell me everything." Jezebel says excitedly
Amount of time it took me to recount everything that happened word for word one hour exactly. Time it would have taken me if I didn't have to work with the food and Jezzie did not interrupt, fifteen minutes. The instant I stop, she starts laughing.
"And they thought you would cooperate." She says dumfounded still giggling.
"Actually they thought I actually was helping them." I say starting to chuckle myself along with her.
"I think your better than you think you are." I ponder on that until I figure out what to say. "Anyway, she asks about Rebecca. Is she your lady friend?"
"I don't underestimate myself." She smile and stands up from the couch. "She might be. Do you?"
"Good to know. And yes" She shuffles my hair. "Good night." And she slips put the door. Night? Already? I look out and the sky is turning into a dark bluish hue with small, bright stars shining slowly little by little peeking out. Now I am frantic because someone was supposed to be here by now but he is not. Maybe I'll wait a while. I eat my meal, the one I was kept away from and wait and wait and wait for four hours. Until then, I here another knock on the door. I get up and pull him by the collar inside.
"What the hell Zach? You were supposed to be here four hours ago." I practically yell.
"I had to eat" he says defensively "and Gallagher has made some security adjustments." I don't let myself get hung up on that. "How's everybody?" After months of being alone I want to know what's new about everybody, even those I don't care about. He spoke about the guys from Blackthorne and the girls from Gallagher. When it came to Macey and Liz he was stingy with the information especially with Macey. I couldn't say a single word except "Oh."
"'And how's Cammie?' She's fine she misses her symbolical older brother though. Thanks for asking." Zach carries the entire conversation by himself. "'And Bex?' Funny you should ask she really misses you. But it's obvious you don't feel the same way."
Sometimes I just want to deck him. "I was going to ask."
"Were. But you didn't." Zach spat. "And don't say that the notes you send her really mean something." I am about to say something but he isn't done. "and think that just because she isn't around she will not notice."
"How do you even know this?" I ask stupidly, I already know the exact words he's going to say.
"Spy." ." After that major reality check from Zach I wonder if I'm the one who changed or them. People change you. And now that he points it out I didn't realize what I could have made happened but didn't. Either 'cause I failed or did not try hard enough. Or she's better than I thought.
What was he going to do? Who is Annie Golden? And who is Jezebel's man friend? Tan Tan TAAAAAAN… - dramatic music R&R!
