Chapter 17
CAMMIE POV;
Zach steps forward, "Cam, you okay? Whats going on?"
I sigh, looking over at mom, she gives me an apologetic look. I gulp, "Uhh guys, can you give us a minute?" Bex frowns a little, as does Macey but they obey and walk back to the kitchen. Zach sits down on the other couch, a worried expression on his face.
"Uhh- My um" I pause for a moment, "My sister- Allison, shes in- shes in the Circle" I look away as soon as I've told him, looking down at the floor. I hear him sigh. I look to my right, still my head pointing down to the floor, Mom must have left us in private as well. I feel, Zachs' hand on mine, and him moving, sitting next to me.
"Cam, everything will be okay, I bet your sister won't hurt you. If she does, I will protect you, I promise" He then lifts my chin, making me look him in the eyes, they are still as hyponotising as when we first met. "And have I ever broken a promise to you?" He says, softly. I reply by shaking my head, no.
He pulls me in for a hug, kissing the top of my head. I am still in shock of how my sister can betray me like this. She knows, the Circle have been after pretty much since Dad went missing, and yet she joins them. Abby, use to always tell me, that my sister was always different compared to me. She had this one friend called Myla, but she had left just before I was born, when Al was about 5 years old. Apparently, when I was little, and Al was in Gallagher, her and some other girls went to Blackthorne for a week, and she had met a boy like I met Zach. I don't remember his name, all I remember is when I met him, he got gum in my hair. Gross, I know.
Soon, we return to dinner, which I had to warm up, because of the dilemma not long ago, But I just want to end my birthday properly, not all upset. The dinner went really nice, soon they all left. I was exhausted, but I wasn't tired, if you get what I mean. You know when your so tired, like TO TIRED to even sleep. Ugh I hate that. Me and Zach went to bed anyway, but we just decided to talk it out, as we both couldn't sleep.
"Why would your sister join the Circle anyway?" Zach asks, probably trying to work out everything.
"I don't know. All I know, is when we were in Gallagher, she was offered a place by the Circle, because, they saw how skillful and stuff she was, and she agreed"
"Doesn't she know they are out to kill you?"
"I don't know, Zach, I honestly don't know. I just hope that she comes to her senses and leaves them, fast, before things can get really bad, for both of us, for everyone"
Allison POV:
"Allison, we have a mission for you" Catherine notifies me, handing me a folder, then leaving. That woman is seriously weird. What I find weirder though, is the fact that they won't actually tell me anything, and yet they are so desperate for me to join their little gang. I open the folder, looking through the papers, but one thing catches my eye, Cammies' picture, and the objective underneath. Obtain dead or alive.
They want Cammie.
