"And give me one damn good reason why I shouldn't just kill you now?" Catherine screamed.
We where both drenched in sweat, blood was matted in my hair, and Catherine looked psychotic.
"Because," my voice broke "I'm pregnant."
After that it all went black.
I woke up with tears drenched on my face, whie breathing heavily. I'd been having the same nightmare since…the accident.
"Cam?" Zach's voice rang clear through the cold crisp night. I hadn't talked to him since he saved me. Ironically enough I wouldn't talk to anyone. I hadn't spoken a word to anyone since…James.
I looked at Zach, he was on my bed now reaching for me. I flinched back, I didn't want to be touched. "Do you have any water?" the question was code for "are we being listened to?"
Zach nodded, much to my displeasure. "Yeah, I'll get you some," he started towards the bathroom grabbing my empty glass on the way. He knew I didn't mind facet water. I pulled the blanket closer to my chest and looked around the room. Jonas had night shift, and would sure be watching us on the feeds right now.
"Here ya go Cam," Zach pressed the glass into my hand. I gulped the water down, finishing it in a matter of seconds. We stayed silent for a few minutes, while Zach just sat at the foot of my bed. However Zach never liked listening to silence to long. "You going to tell me what the nightmare was this time?" I looked away.
This had been the sixth time this week this had happened. Reluctantly I nodded. "It's… it starts off with James, what he did to me." My voice cracked, "Cam you don't-" I cut him off.
"Just listen," I sighed. "After it happens I flash into this cave. I'm with Catherine and she wants to kill me but she wont." Zach tilted his head, confused "why?" I looked down at my lap, twisting my fingers. "Because I'm pregnant." Zach's breath caught asking the question everyone wanted to know "Are you?" I didn't answer.
That was the night every COC member was shocked by my actions. Even more shocked when they found out about James. I didn't know how many times they would replay the feeds, or how many people saw it live. All I did know was that Catherine was watching, and that's what I needed to happen.
Instead of answering Zach's question I kissed him with as much passion as I could muster. He was caught off guard but none of the less responded, that was all I needed for him to do. Soon I was ripping off his shirt and things were happening; and at the last possible second I pulled out three knives. Some people thought I was going to kill Zach that night. They thought it was a hoax or I had found out he was a fake. But none of that ever happened. Instead I pulled back and shot the knives around the room, crushing the only three camera's in the room. At that point they couldn't watch us, and I left it up to there imaginations to fill in the rest of the night.

"I'm late Jonas."
"I know."
Jonas studied the board carefully for all of thirty seconds before maneuvering his way to steal my queen. He acted as if I had just told him two plus two was four, something he obviously already knew. How did he know my period was late? I didn't really want an answer for that, come to think
"Checkmate." He glanced up at my stony face. He'd beaten my every single time but continued to play chess with me.
"You should talk to Zach," I shook my head. I didn't want to talk to Zach, and Zach sure as hell didn't want to talk to me. Jonas sighed, "Are you ever going to tell me about it?" I looked up and studied Jonas's face closely.
It had been two weeks since the base saw me and Zach that night. And in those two weeks the only person I could talk to was him. Jonas Anderson understood me for some unknown reason I couldn't explain. I was catatonic to everyone else. The only time you could find me talking was when I was barking orders.
Jonas sighed at my lack of response. He already knew the answer to his own question.
"You had sex with Zach, Cam and now you won't even talk to him. I mean what if…" And there it was. I inwardly smiled, Jonas had played his part perfectly. He just didn't know it yet. I looked away, knowing full well one of Catherine's bugs were listening to our conversation. "I love Zach, Jonas. I really, truly love him. But I can't…if I am and it's…" I shook my head to add to the dramatics.
"CAMERON MORGAN PLEASE REPORT TO SECTOR NINE DASH B"
That was Catherine's office. I gave a small smile, she had been listening.
I quickly stood up and walked- well more like jogged- to Catherine's office. Upon my arrival the steel doors opened to reveal Catherine and-
My breath caught, as my eyes bugged.
"Nick?"
A/N
Okay so I know the wait was SUPER DUPER LONG but I split this chapter in half because, well…you'll see. ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED. I know a lot of you are probably seriously confused but it will all make sense next chapter. And yes Nick is back. Originally this chapter was ALOT longer but I wanted to stop it right here, please don't be mad.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Please R&R
