Chapter 16
The operatives and the subject are going to save another operative who was captured by the Circle Of Cavan. The operatives and the subject are going to go on a trip at night to find the operative, which includes not telling anyone about their little trip.
"This way." I said leading Zach, Bex, and Liz through one of my favorite tunnels that leads to the outside of the Gallagher grounds, but this one was one of the longest tunnels. I guess Zach had to burst something out.
"Can this tunnel get any longer?" Zach smirked.
"Stop making light Zach." Was my only reply.
"Where are we going to go now?" Was Liz's only question.
"Anywhere," I said. "Until we find Macey and the Circle."
The next day, the weather was acting all weird that it went from cold to very, very, very, HOT!
"It's so hot out here." Bex used her hand to fan herself.
"Liz are you ok?" I asked while looking at her.
"Yeah… I feel great. How about you Zach?" She asked.
"I'm pretty good." He looked at me. "How about you, Gallagher Girl?"
"I think I'm okay." I said, but I was feeling a little dizzy. I put my hand on my head to feel the temperature. My forehead was like blazing hot.
"Hey, are you okay?" Zach walked next me and put his cheek on my forehead.
"Yeah." I replied softly. I didn't know how this happened, but I somehow fainted because of the heat and fever and I fell into Zach's outstretched arms. The only thing I remember was someone strong and muscular picking me up; and Liz and Bex shouting, "Cam wake up! Are you okay? Say something!"
I woke up feeling all groggy and was groaning because of the pain that shot in my head. Maybe it was the fever or something. But anyway, I was lying on the bed, trying to figure out where I was when I heard the voice that was so familiar.
"Hey. You're awake good. How are you feeling?" Zach was sitting on a chair next to the bed I was laying on.
"Better. Thanks for asking." I said. Then I tried getting up, but my head hurt so bad that the pain shot up quickly. "Oww…"
"Hey, hey." He said softly. "We're not in a rush. Here, I'll help you sit up. You might feel better."
"Where are the other two?" I asked after I sat up.
"Outside waiting." He replied and sat on the side of the bed looking at me.
"Where are we?" Was my next question.
"We found a nice house with lots of nice people and they told us that we can stay until you get better.
"Oh…" I looked down. "I'm sorry."
"For what? You didn't do anything." He said.
"We could've been still looking, but I um… lost conscious." I whispered softly.
"Don't worry about it." He put his hand on top of my hand. "We needed the rest. You needed the rest more. It's the least I can do for you."
"How did I get here?" I looked around.
"I carried you here." He blushed. Wow, he blushed for the first time.
"Thanks, but I think you should get some rest." I smiled. "You deserved it more than I do."
"Ok. I'll stay with you to keep you company. I'll sleep on that chair." He said.
"There is a couch over there." I laughed.
"Well, ok then. If you say so."
"So." I smirked.
"Don't make light." He smirked and then he smiled at me. And I smiled back.
