So this sort is a BIT out of character, Tina Walters didn't go to Gallagher, Cammie has never met Zach, Blackthorn never did the switch. Catherine Goode died years ago while trying to do things for The Circle. Zach was 12 when he mom died, Agent Townsend found Zach and took him when he was 9 in effort to save Zach from his mother who had gone crazy and joined The Circle shortly after Zach turned two. Zach is indeed a spy, and went to Blackthorn but hey spies have dreams like normal people too right? ;-)


So I'll start by saying my name is Cammie, pretty boring right? Well, still boring but my full name is Cameron Ann Morgan, but I go by Cammie. Anyway, I have a huge crush on this actor who is also my age, seventeen. But you know I have accepted the fact that he, by the way his name is Zach, well it's really Zachary Edward Goode but he goes by Zach. As I was saying, I have accepted the fact that he and I will never be a thing, I even tortured myself for the last two years by having him sing me to sleep over the radio. Oh yeah, that's right, he's a pop singer as well. But I'm over him, I know he is just some cute pop singer-actor guy that will probably lose his fame in the next five years.

Well I thought I was over him, I even took down all the posters of him in my room months ago, until I hear my dad turn on the local evening news.

"Teen star Zachary Goode is coming to town folks! That's right! He is coming to our small town of Roseville, Virginia! Why you ask? He was casted in a new movie called The Lost Letter! His co-star and romantic interest will be played by Tina Walters!" I heard the male TV broadcasters voice echo through my house.

Oh no, prissy Tina will be here too? She is the worst of Hollywood, she's always starting drama, caught up in scandals and always goes for the guy that's hot in the business that month. Oh, and two years older than myself and Zach, so that makes her about 20.

Anyway, sadly, the last few months Zach has been the rapidly rising star in the acting world and everyone is fawning over him because it's talented, humble and great looking. Of course, Tina has her sights set on him...

"Cam!" My dad called me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah?"

"You do know that Zach is casted in my movie right? It's crazy that it's on the news though."

"What?! You're movie?!" My dad is a top notch producer, his work ranges from best selling chick-flicks - yes, I make fun of him for that - to crazy popular crime shows on TV. But why don't I live in Hollywood then? Dad hates Hollywood, he has a mansion in a small secluded area in his home state of Virginia, so whenever he is needed in California he'll take a trip there but if he can, he likes to stay here in this small town.

"Dad, you know I like love Zach! Why didn't you tell me?!"

"Because I didn't want your knowledge of who would be casted in my movie to affect your decision to take a job on set. I hope that your now known knowledge doesn't affect your actions and attitude while working on set." My dad is always trying to get me into the business like him, the technical side, so whenever they're filming within distance of where I live, I'll go to work with my father. The crazy part is that even though I'm seventeen, all the other workers treat me like I'm their age, but I guess it helps to have the constant threat of not having a job if they don't respect me; my dad can and will fire them if they treated me like a baby. Thankfully being young isn't a bad thing at all. I'm usually the personal assistant to some actor during filming because I can drive and move quickly to get things done.

"Yes Dad, I don't and I won't act any differently because I'd be working around him. I mean Dad, you know I've been on set with Ryan Gosling before and I didn't act any different!"

"And I thank you, but I expect you to just act yourself like you always do around celebrities."

"Yes sir!"

"Good answer! Now I heard your mom say dinner was ready! I'm starving!" Oh no, mom's cooking isn't always the best...!


If you're reading this then you must know that I go to a spy school, I'm a Gallagher Girl. So, I guess you have enough clearance to know that and to read my writing. So, why was I at home and not at boarding school? Well since my mom is head mistress we live pretty close to here so that means on weekends, if she can, she goes home to spend time with dad, and sometimes during the week we - mom and I - go home to eat dinner together as a family.

Since you have this clearance and you know my mom is a spy, and is the head of my school, a spy school, you know my dad is a spy as well. And two things, a few months ago I found my dads burial site right and you're wondering is he really alive; and you're also wondering if he's a spy as well as a movie producer? My dad is a spy as well as a movie producer, very few people know he's a spy, and you'd be surprised how many agents and bad guys are involved in the movie business. But of course there is normal people in the movie business as well. And to answer your assumed other question; no dad is not dead. He's very much alive. As time went on we - mom, Aunt Abby, Rebecca Baxter, Macey McHenry, and myself found out the burial site - that it's just a ploy, it was a trap to lure me in. It worked for awhile until Elizabeth Sutton broke into some records from the Circle to find out the burial site was fake and my father was chained to a cave wall within their headquarters. He was tortured everyday to get information from him. He should have been dead, they tried to kill him multiple times but failed and realized that they needed him until the next time they had enough and wanted to kill him because he was no use. While taking down the Circle mom and I found broke into the headquarters and found dad. That day, when I discovered him, he looked nothing like he once did; he looked pale, frail, skinny beyond starvation and his hair was long and pulled up into some man bun thing. But his eyes. His deep, sea blue eyes still shined with perseverance.

But now the Circle is nonexistent, dad is healthy and back to his usual of fighting the bad guys, he looked like he once did, had a good hair cut so it was short again, and his muscles were back, stronger than ever. Not only was he fighting bad guys we was also a movie/TV show producer.


At breakfast the next morning, my best friend Macey, Macey McHenry, who I tell everything to, was flipping out.

I was one of the first girls to be in the dinning hall, so she felt no guilt when raising her voice in the temporarily nearly empty room and proclaim "How come you didn't tell me?!" As she lifted one leg up over the bench and swing the other leg over and forcefully sat on the wooden bench at the long table, she continued: "How come you didn't tell me about Zach coming to town to film a movie?! How come you didn't tell any of us! Cam we're your roommates! We've been through everything! Literally!"

"Hey! Stop!" I directed as she was frantically whirling a knife around that was once used to cut her Belgian waffle. "I didn't know!" I paused to lower my voice to a whisper as the dinning hall started to fill with girls. "Don't you dare go yelling at me because I didn't have any clue until my father told me last night!"

"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry!" She quickly darted her eyes around the hall and her eyes settled on two girls walking our way; Elizabeth - Liz - Sutton, and Rebecca - Bex -Baxter. Macey waited for them to get walk over to us and sit down before continuing.

As soon as Bex and Liz were seated Macey reached into her backpack that was hanging off her left shoulder. "So," she pulled out a piece of paper, it looked like one of those online TMZ articles. "I saw this online last night." She then proceeded to shove these slightly bent papers, no further than three inches from my face.

"Um, as much as I'd love to have amazing sight, I cannot read that." I gave her a teasing side eye.

"Ugh, get better eyes then! I printed out an article I saw on some site-"

"Yes," I interrupted, "Some gossip site that's nine-times-out-of-ten full of lies!"

"Ugh shut up!" She rolled her eyes.

"Um Mace, we go to a spy school I'm sure Liz could hack into something and find better information than a gossip site." Bex said as she slathered butter and grape jelly on toast.

"Anyway," Macey continued talking about nonsense as I was stuck in my own thoughts of Zach. I heard he was a spy..he went to Blackthorn, a boy spy school my dad's best friend, Mr. Solomon, went to. So that means Zach is one of us...But if he was one of us; a spy, then why was he going for this whole singer/actor thing? I guess everyone had a dream..."Cammie! Listen!" I snapped out of my day dream.

"Yes, I'm listening, you have my full attention Mace." Bex snickered as she finished off her toast but ate around the crust.

"Yeah right." Oo, so much sarcasm, oh well, Macey will get over it. "As I was saying, I was reading a few different sites and it says that he should be arriving in our town any day now!"

"Yeah, I think my dad said I'm needed on set umm...Next Tuesday." I took a sip of orange juice, savor info the delicious food that I won't have after I graduate.

"That's so soon! So...in four days!" Liz piped in.

"Yes," I sighed.

"Are you seriously counting down the days until the last day?" Macey asked. Okay, I'll admit I was, I really didn't feel like I was in school anymore because of all thugs chasing and being chased by The Circle. I'll admit, I was pretty bummed to be saying goodbye to Gallagher because I guess it really means I'm out in the big world without having the protection of being a student.

"Yes, but no, yes because if really means we're not high school students anymore, and no because we aren't students anymore - we're really out in the big world." I sighed then a smile slowly grew across my face "But... I cannot wait until next Thursday! Then we are done!" Next Thursday, six days away was the graduation ceremony, but today was officially our last day of classes and such.

Liz cut in: "Yeah, I'm a bit sad, graduation is less than a week away and we say goodbye to high school."

"Yeah, but just think! Adventure! College! Parties!" Macey said, "but really who is going to college? The only person here is you Cam, and even then you and like four other people there will have special classes because you're spies and already took college level classes."

"You know who else is going to Georgetown?" Bex questioned as if she already knew the answer.

"Well Cammie is for one.." Macey said as her eyes darted around the room to look at other seniors to take a guess of who was joining me.

"Kim Lee - who's going for code breaking stuff, Anna Fetterman- who is going to the NSA promptly after Georgetown, however she is already working with them. Cammie is obviously going to Georgetown and...Zachary Goode." Bex answered her own question.

"What?" I heard my own voice asked but I barely recall because I couldn't process that. I mean a spy, and an actor? He is like a two in one special, yet he is going to college...to then me taking special classes with me, me! "Zachary Goode is going to the same college as me?"
