Chapter 6

Bex, Macey and Liz showed me all over the school, and let me tell you, it was huge! There was the Hall of history, where pictures of previous Gallagher students were hung. The largest one there was of Gillian Gallagher. She was the one who founded the school over 200 years ago, after she killed this man who was trying to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. The first one. Yeah I didn't know that someone had tried before either, but apparently there is a lot we don't know. They showed me the grand hall, and let me assure you, it was exactly what it said on the tin. I continued to follow them round the school, looking into classrooms, science labs, computer labs etc, for a good twenty minutes. Yeah. That's how big it was. The whole mansion had a prestigious air about it, which could've only come from a top private school, or apparently, a top spy school.

We slowly wandered back to my new room, our dorm room, engaging in a carefree conversation about something's and nothings, when, as we reached the door, I asked, "Do they normally lock you in your room for long periods of time with a lock that gives you electric shocks and was unbreakable?"

Bex and Macey laughed with each other while Liz looked awfully proud as she said "No they don't, but they used my lock? I know I installed it but normally it isn't actually switched on. They only switch it on in MI6 jail – that's where all the terrorists are kept"

Wow she made that lock, and it is used by the government? Impressive.

Bex then said "hang on. You got locked in our room? What did you do to get that?"

"Well nothing, Zach kidnapped and drugged me in London, then I woke up here, locked in our room."

Macey's eyes widened in surprise as she said "how long were you out? We're on the Isle of White. That's a good 4 hours away and a ferry ride away from London!"

"Wait a second, Zach kidnapped you?" Bex asked with a sly smile, before I nodded my head, wondering where she was going with this, "What did you think of him?" she continued, waggling her eyebrows suggestively, while we all went to sit down on our respective beds.

"Well, he is hot. Like HOT. But he is constantly smirking, it's starting to get annoying to be honest. Oh and earlier, when I said that no one here knows me so I could easily change my name, he said 'yeah because no one knows who Cammie Morgan is' in a very sarcastic kind of way. What was that all about?"

"Well, first of all, Tina Walters takes after her mum, her mum being a gossip column writer, and claimed the whole way through school that Rachel has had a daughter called Cameron." Bex started "One day when the rumours escalated to ridiculous levels, your mum told everyone that yes she did have a daughter called Cameron, living in the USA. Of course the rumours about you started up again. That you were a CIA agent, posing as other people to stop things happening (there were a few of those), that you were actually a double agent and planning to infiltrate the CIA. But those are the types of things you get when your parents are MI6 legacies. So thanks to Tina, everyone knows about you. And the fake facts, but everyone knows they're fake because it's Tina. And secondly, your mom has loads of pictures of you in her office and we spend a lot of time in there – Macey, Liz, Zach, Grant, Nick, Jonas and I."

"Okay… Who are Grant, Nick and Jonas?" I asked.

"Zach's best friends and our new friends." Bex replied.

"Please don't bullshit Cam, Rebecca." Macey said while Bex's eyes narrowed at the use of her full name (apparently you only use it if you're prepared to wake up very confused, with broken legs, in the middle of Australia) but Macey seemed unfazed as she continued on, "Grant is Bex's boyfriend, Jonas is Liz's and Nick is mine."

Bex and Liz blushed like huge tomatoes, which made me giggle.

"And that means, Cameron, that Zach will soon be yours" Macey finished.

"Oh, well that exiting." I replied sarcastically, as I highly doubt Zach wold be interested in me, the new kid.

"Which is why we must make you look very nice for dinner tonight. Well partly for Zach, the other part is because it will be your grand entrance. Bex, Liz – get my bag."
