Hello my lovely readers :)
I'm trying to update as soon as possible and create a kick-$$ story at the same time.
Hope you enjoy this chapter!
I woke up the next morning to a beautiful sight.
"Good morning sunshine, it's about time," said Zach, seemingly unaware he was only wearing a towel in front of me.
"You're drooling," he said. Okay, maybe he knew.
"Shut up," I said, throwing a pillow at him.
He dodged it easily; careful Gallagher Girl or you are actually going to hit me one of these days.
"Remember the little talk we had about calling me Gallagher Girl?"
"Forcive habit," he said shrugging it off.
"So what is the plan going to be to break into the Circle," I asked, not wanting to waste anymore time.
"Can I at least get dressed so you can focus," he joked. I threw another pillow at him, this time aiming lower so he couldn't dodge it.
"Ow," he mumbled, walking back into the bathroom.
I laid back down, thoughts of Gallagher Academy floated back to me. About now, I would be stuffing my face at an amazing breakfast, and then going off to Culture and Assimilation. Macey, Bex, and Liz would be joking and smiling around me.
"Cam, Earth to Cammie," Zach was in front of me trying to get my attention.
"Sorry just thinking," I trailed off, not wanting to reveal I already missed my sisterhood more than I thought I would.
Zach didn't pester me about it which was smart because I was out of pillows and there was a Bible on the night stand next to me.
"So about this mission…"
We talked about the mission for hours, going over every detail that we could think of. We thought of every possible thing that could go wrong and made back-up plans.
The only time we stopped was when Zach realized it was checkout time.
"Staying in the same hotel twice this close to Roseville is dumb. Besides we should keep moving to Maryland."
That is why we found ourselves back on the road. For some reason we didn't go back to planning the mission, we went back to silence.
I was growing used to the silence again when Zach spoke, "We should stop for food and supplies soon."
When he said this, I realized that I had not eaten in almost two days. I just nodded my agreement, and went back to thinking. There was something nagging at the back of my mind, something that Zach would probably never answer.
As we drove closer and closer to the Maryland border, the more I wanted to ask the question.
Finally, I gathered my courage and found my voice.
"How do you know Mr. Solomon?"
The same silence as when I asked about his father filled the air.
"I've known him my whole life. He came to the Circle meetings; he had to keep his cover while trying to find a way to bring them down. You know that."
"I guess I didn't word that well enough. How did you and Mr. Solomon start working together to take down the circle?"
For the longest time he didn't speak and I didn't breathe.
"We became friends, kind of, at the Circle meetings. He and my mother were in the same cell for as long as they had been in the Circle. We talked about Blackthorne and the Circle. Then one day he called and asked me to go to D.C for a CoveOps exercise. He came to pick me up and during the ride to D.C, we were talking and I let it slip about how I don't like anything about the Circle. I thought he would hit me or tell my mother, but he just smiled. From that moment on we became a kind of team."
"Wow."
He nodded and we continued in silence. Slowly but surely I was piecing together the puzzle that was Zachary Goode.
So it was short, I know.
Bu the next chapter...OH BABY! :)
