The Mistake: Morgan/ McHenry

Morgan:

Things You Think of Doing When Your Sort of Boyfriend Finds You on Your Super-Secret Mission:

Run, that's always an option.

Sweet-talk him into letting you go without any yelling, violence, or running away.

Erase his memory.

Do that Maneuver Bex did in P&E.

Running gave Zach the chance to catch me (Which I am totally faster than him, no matter what he says). Sweet talking wouldn't work because Zach is immune to the puppy-dog face. I couldn't erase Zach's memory because he probably wouldn't drink the tea. The thing Bex did in P&E is illegal and I wasn't in the mood to hurt Zach.

Dang. Why did I choose Grant's house again? Should've gone to Jonas'.

Zach kept his eyes planted on me. Then he spoke with so much anger in his voice it scared me, "Why?" was all he said.

"Why, what?" Grant asked as if nothing was wrong.

"Zach," I said getting his attention, "Calm down."

He looked at me like I was crazy. "I just found you, the girl I've been searching across the world for, and my best friend were in the same house, no one told me, plus you were hiding in a closet and you want me to calm down?" his voice was filled with anger.

Really? Was all I could think. He just ruined my mission and he's angry with me?

"You think I wanted this?" I asked referring to me running away. "I can't be gone 5 seconds without me being followed. First, I have to worry about the Circle and then, you guys. You want to know why I'm here? Fine, I ran out of supplies! I needed Grant to give me some things that I needed! Happy?"

He'd never admit it, but at that moment he relaxed. He thought he had it all in the bag. He got to see his best friend, he found me, and he could come with me, right? Wrong. No way was he coming, AT ALL. I needed to get on with my mission; I couldn't stay there any longer. It wasn't like me to get mad at Zach, but he didn't understand I needed to do this alone.

"It's not very nice not knowing what's going on, is it?" I asked.

Then I quickly, with my hand behind me twisting the doorknob, opened the door, slammed it shut and ran as fast as I possibly could away. The rain was cold against my skin but I needed to get away.

Away from Grant.

Away from Zach.

Away from getting caught.

Why I didn't realize was that the rain was about to cause me a lot of problems?

McHenry:

"Why?" Bex yelled outraged.

"Because, what if Cammie comes home and we're still here searching?" I lied, "I can't help but think that, Bex. What happens when school starts again?"

"Well, wouldn't she call? Or check in? Wouldn't she want to know where we are?" Bex answered, "And about school… well I guess we'll go back when school starts."

Liz finally spoke up, "I say I go. I'm not needed here. I'll go and report to you guys when I find something."

"No" Bex and I said at the same time.

"Lizzie, you know we needed you here." I said, "That's why I'm going."

Unfortunately, Bex can be very persuasive. Soon enough, she had me pinned to ground.

"Macey," She said, "We know she's not at Gallagher."

I was still struggling, but soon enough I gave up.

"Fine," I said, "But I am only staying until our next little mission, then I get to go home."

Bex got up and held out her hand to help me up. She still hadn't agreed to what I said. I grabbed it and pulled her down with me, and then I got up myself and faced Bex, who was still on the ground.

"I'm tired of worrying, Bex," I whispered. "I need to relax; disappointment takes a lot out of you.

You must be wondering why I lied to Bex about wanting to leave. I had agreed with Bex, about going after Cam at first, but that was before I found my letter.

Author's note: Heehee another cliff hanger :P Please Review. It makes my day and this is my longest chapter yet. Still hoping to make them longer. Review(:

Things to think about:

What did Macey's letter say to make her change her mind?

Will Zach catch Cammie?

What the heck is Grant thinking?

Will you review? (That one is actually up to you)
