Chapter 14

"What about Cammie and Zach?"

Macey's pov:

The man shook his head but I pulled away, "We have to get them out! They'll die!" I screamed.

"No," Nick tried to calm me down but there was nothing at the moment that could calm me down. "My best friend is in there!" I shouted. "She is the most respected spy in all of the agencies and you won't save her!"

"There's nothing to save Macey," The man snapped. "Get in the helicopter!"

"No!" I screamed. Tears streamed down my face. "Nick!" I begged him. "They're our friends... Please," the tears were falling down the sides of my cheeks. "Please..."

"Has Cammie come back?" Bex cried.

"No," I said softly.

The chopper lifted off and all we could do was watch it lift off.

Memories of Zach and Cammie...

Bex's pov:

Memory of Cammie: 14 years ago

Cammmie smiled at me when we entered the school for the first time. "Rebecca, I think we're going to make history here," she grinned at me.

"Sure Cam and by the way, I'll kill you if you ever call me Rebecca again I will kill you," I laughed. She socked me in the shoulder. "Kay Bex. I won't call you... Rebecca..." she made a point of drawing out the Rebecca.

"There's Liz," she pointed to the short blond girl walking into the school who cried out a loud, involuntary oopsy daisies.

"Do you want to be a spy?" I asked.

"Of course," she smiled.

Memory of Zach: 8 years ago

"Cam's not coming home, Zach," I sobbed into his shoulder. He didn't shake with me, he just put his arm around me and comforted me as I sobbed.

"We'll find her Bex. We'll find her. The Circle isn't getting her."

Grant's pov:

Memory of Cammie: 9 years ago

I sat down in the seat next to Bex in Mr. Smith's class.

Now it was just Zach who remained at the front of the room, "I'm Zach." He slid into the seat beside Cammie and said, "and I think I've found my guide."

Dr. Steve called out, "Excellent," but Cammie made a face as if there were nothing worse than sitting next to Zach.

Memory of Zach: 4 years ago

"Grant, which ring should I give Cammie?" He asked. "I mean, I want to propose to her correctly and I need the right ring."

I pointed to the one with the green jewl, "Doesn't she love the color green?"

"It can't just be any green color, dude. And we also have to talk about the band. Women freak about that sort of thing," he told me. "You have a girlfriend too, how don't you know about this stuff?"

"I don't think about getting married much, dude, cuz I can get laid without having to be married," I told him, seriously.

He shook his head, "I know, dude. I've already done it. But we want to make it official. Bex will want it sooner or later you know. Pop the question," he nodded his head encouragingly. "You should get Bex one of those pretty blue gems," he told me.

I laughed, "This is about Cam, okay. Now which one do you think she'd like?" I held up on with a pretty crystal band, "What about this one?"

"Dude! When did you become the guy who knows about rings and that shit?" He whisper yelled.

I rolled my eyes, "What can I say? I'm a ladies man."

Macey's pov:

Memory of Cammie: 4 years ago

I grinned at Cammie as she said, "Zach just proposed to me," her eyes were wide and her cheeks were flushed, light pink. It made me want to laugh and jump up and down with her.

"That's great Cammie!" I cried. She smiled.

"I'll make sure you catch the bouquet at the wedding."

Memory of Zach: 4 years ago

"Okay Zach, here it is. We aren't going to sugar coat this or make it sound easy for you," I warned.

"Got it?" Liz pointed a finger at Zach.

He nodded, "What do you have to tell me?"

Bex stood up and paced in front of him, "It seems that you are engaged to our best friend and we need to give you the rules in your marriage that will keep us from ever killing you."

He grinned, "So protective."

"Stop laughing," Liz snapped.

He threw his hands up in surrender but was still grinning.

"First off, do not cheat on Cammie, lie to, murder her friends, family, etc," I told him. "Do not become a serial killer, kidnapper, pedophile, ax murderer, or a turn-coat agent."

"Got it," he gave his trade mark smirk.

Nick's pov:

Memory of Zach: 1 years ago

"So i hear you're getting married to my wife's friend," Zach said.

"Yeah," I smiled.

"Don't mess it up."

Memory of Cammie: 1 year ago

"Cammie, the dress is all wrong!" Macey screamed. "What do you think Nick? She needs a different cocktail dress."

Cammie threw a hanger at Macey, "I like my dress!"

"I think it's fine," I told Macey. "It's just a dance."

"But Zach will be there and she has to look fabulous."

"I still think it looks good." I might have even scanned over her butt and chest because both places looked really good. Cammie jumped up and threw her arms around me, "Oh thank you Nick."

Liz's pov:

Memory of Cammie: 4 years ago

She spun around in her small yellow sun dress she had just changed into for the garden party mission she turned to me and asked, "Since I haven't talked about bride's maids yet, I was wondering if you would be one of my bride's maids. I asked Bex to be the maid of honor and I asked Macey to be a bridesmaid as well but we never got to the discussion did we?"

I jumped up and down, "Of course I'll be your bride's maid!" I threw my arms around her neck. "Yes!" I shouted.

She smiled, "Easy there bookworm."

Memory of Zach: 4 years ago

"Liz, I'm going to ask Cammie to marry me and I was wondering if I could practice on you," he said.

I grinned, "Damn. When the great Zachary Goode is asking me for help on asking someone to marry him you know he's got it bad..." I giggled. He glared at me. "Fine."

"Cammie would you..."

"Really Zach? I thought you were much more smooth than that. Cammie would you... Really? Call her Gallagher Girl. Call her what you love to call her, it's more genuine," I told him. He frowned then nodded.

"Okay..."

"Hurry up. We don't have all day," I snapped.

"Gallagher Girl would you do me the honor of marrying me?"

"Not too bad," I grinned.

Jonas's pov:

Memory of Zach: 2 years ago

"Zach, you asked Cammie to marry you with no problem. You weren't even nervous, but I'm so nervous to ask Liz," I told him.

He shook his head, "No. I never said I wasn't nervous and it isn't man-like to admit you're nervous to another guy."

"Whatever."

"Don't be nervous Jonas. She's going to say yes, she'll probably pounce on you like a cat to get that ring on her finger." I rolled my eyes and walked away. So much for the help.

Memory of Cammie: 5 years ago

"Hey Jonas, can you hint that we should get married to Zach? I don't think he has any plans," Cammie asked.

"Are you a virgin or somthing until you're married?" I stared at her guessing that probably wasn't it. They seemed a little extra cozy these days.

"No. And my sex life is none of your business. I just want to get married because it's better than waiting till you're all sexed out. Do you think 80 year olds have sex." I made a face. "Yeah i didn't think so."

I grinned, "Okay, Cam."


Macey's pov:

Liz walked up to the pew and looked out at everyone who was there, Cammie and Zach really did have a lot of CIA and all the other agencies kind of family around. It had been only a week since they'd died yet all I could feel was a twisting in my gut. They couldn't be dead. I'd told them that and people had agreed with me but people were suddenly coming to terms with it, but not me. I couldn't come to terms with somthing I didn't believe. They hadn't even found his or her body. Shit. That's what it was. Shit.

"Ahem," she cleared her throat. "I'm Elizabeth Sutten. And Cameron Morgan was my best friend. And I can't believe she's... gone. And all I can do is pray that her and Zach go to heaven."

People all walked up, just Liz, Bex, Grant, Jonas, and Nick. When it was my turn I was done with what they had said. All the same thing, that they missed them but I didn't cry along with them, I stood at the pew and said. "I'm Macey McHenry and I can't say the same as all of you. You all say that you wish they make it to heaven and me? No. I don't wish she make it to heaven." People gasped. "Because to me, they aren't gone. I see Cammie and Zach everywhere. I see Cammie in the hallways, whereever I go and in the crowds I see the girl who loved to disappear and wonder if she is there, being a chameleon. I see Zach when I see a boy who looks at a girl and you know he loves her. I see their love for each other in the way couples look at each other and the way a baby cries and loves her mother and father unconditionally, because I child's love is stronger than any other. I wonder if her baby could be the child I see held in another's arms. I see them everywhere." I took a deep breath. "I see my best friend and I am sorry I cannot grieve with you all, all I can think is that my best friend is just playing the game she plays best and I don't cry. I dmile when I see a newborn child and think: maybe that's Cam's kid. So I won't cry, I'll smile and know."

"Thank you everyone." I turned around and sat back down beside Nick.
