Zach's pov

He was about to go inside when I tapped him on the shoulder.

"Do you know where my mom is?" I asked wondering why she wasn't with the rest of the group.

"She was checked out by a doctor and then I think she was getting debriefed," he told me, "I'm sure she'll be here when she's done." I nodded. At least she was okay. I was about to go back in when a nurse stopped me.

"Sorry sir, but she needs her rest now. Are there more people in there?" she asked me with a gentle hand on my arm.

"Yes, there is a couple more people in there," I told her standing outside the door. She went in and then when she was coming out she was herding everybody out. Just as she did so my mom came walking up. She was wearing new clothes. Her hair looked clean and she had a smile on her face. She came over and gave me a hug.

"It's good to see you again. How have you been?" she said to me as released me from the hug.

"It's good to see you too. I've been okay. It's been hard without you and dad," I told her. No one had to tell me my dad was killed, I knew. I knew by the way he wasn't with my mom and how she told me she would tell me about him later. She nodded.

"I'm sorry we haven't been around. I'll be around now," she told me bringing me back into a suffocating hug. I nodded. It was good to have family again, even if it was only my mom.

Cam's pov

It had been five weeks four days, five hours, and thirty one minutes since I had left London. We were back at Gallagher. Everyone I loved. We had gone through our regular routines. Tina of course was all over our absence and my injury. It had healed some. I told Tina the truth, of course her theory was close. I hadn't seen much of Piper and for that I was grateful. We were in the Grand Hall eating dinner when Tina leaned over and whispered, "So Cammie, is it true that Zach and Piper have secretly been seeing each other?" I sighed and rolled my eyes. I hoped it wasn't true. I mean Zach had proposed to me for cover. Would he have done that if he didn't like me? I didn't know.

"If it's secret why would I know about it?" I whispered back. She shrugged.

"He's your boyfriend slash husband," she said with a smile as she forked our gourmet food into her mouth.

"Well he's not secretly dating her that I'm aware of," I told her trying to ignore her.

"That you're aware of," Tina mumbled turning to my other sisters. I rolled my eyes. This was out of hand. Zach wasn't at the grand hall this meal because he was studying for some test. All my friends were here though. I think we were all glad to be back home. When I finished eating I told my friends that I was going to the library to find Zach. When I walked in I was right behind a head of long blond hair. It was Piper.

Her hair was swishing down her back in a cascade of blond. I wondered what she was doing in the library. I didn't picture her as someone who would study. I was going towards Zach and Piper was going the same way. He stood up and closed his books. Then Piper came right up in front of him. Then she planted her lips on his. His eyes were open in surprise. He pushed her off. I just stood there frozen. She walked away. When she saw me she smirked.

"He's mine," she whispered. I stuck my foot out and she tumbled down. Now Gallagher girls don't push or shove. We don't trip either. But Piper was an outsider just like Macey had once been.

"As if," I said to her. Zach had come up and he had his arms around me. Then right in front of Piper he kissed me. It was a long slow kiss that was perfect…that is until Mr. Solomon came up.

"Mr. Solomon, Cammie tripped me," Piper said batting her eyelashes and pressing right up against him. I think she was trying to sound offended and hurt. She came out more with a voice that sounded like 'you're so hot I could eat you up. Will you be the father of my child.'

"Ms. Stewart I suggest you notice more things. Like a foot when it is right in front of you," Mr. Solomon told her walking straight for Zach and I. He totally ignored the voice. He must have really wanted to talk to us. Besides he's got a daughter.

Piper kissed me. She just came up and kissed me. I didn't like her not even close. I was in love with Cammie. I was glad when I saw Cammie trip her. Now she's whining to Mr. Solomon about it. She's so not a spy. She looked angry when Mr. Solomon didn't break and come yell at Cammie. Although he looked set on talking to us anyways.
