A/N - Just an idea that I got. Alternate Universe! Be prepared for some serious drama. I hope you like it!

"Ladies, pack your bags." These are the words that made us start asking Mr. Solomon questions.

"Where are we going?"

"What's going on?"

"Why?"

"I bet we're going on a mission to save a hostage from the Russian Embassy!"

Yeah, that last one was from Tina. Mr. Solomon shook his head. "Quiet down. We're going to Blackthorne." THESE are the words that made everyone in the room cheer. Well, almost everyone. There were three girls in the room that knew better. This is not going to be just some fun reunion with the Blackthorne Boys. I grabbed my two best friends and walked up to my favorite teacher.

"What's the mission?" I asked with my arms folded and my eyebrows raised.

I could have sworn Joe Solomon almost smiled. "Good, Ms. Morgan. Very good, indeed. I'll explain in the helicopter."

With that, Bex, Macey, and I ran up to the room to pack. When we burst through the door, Liz was in there.

"Liz? Why aren't you in Research and Development?" Macey questioned. Liz just shrugged.

"I'm going with you. Every mission needs a tech-person."

I grinned at her simple, yet very true answer. "So, Lizzie, maybe you'll be able to see Jonas" I said.

She blushed bright red and smiled. "And maybe Bex, aka the British Bombshell, can see Grant" she teased.

Bex shrugged. "Probably. But what about Cammie and her blackthorne boy? I think that's a cute match."

"I thought you hated Zach" I said, a confused look present on my face.

"I do. I hate his guts so very much, darling. But it doesn't matter how bloody annoying he is. You two are the perfect couple."

I blushed, but tried to cover it up. "I don't know...What if he doesn't really like me?"

Macey shook her head. "Cams, he kissed you in front of every single person here last year. He likes you."

I sighed and grinned. "Let's go. I don't wanna be late."

We grabbed our bags and headed out to meet Solomon at the helicopter pad.

When we got there, he wasn't in sight. We looked around while all the other girls arrived, chatting about the boys. All of a sudden, Solomon appeared in front of us. I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T SEE THAT!

He motioned us all in the helicopter. I sat next to Bex at the edge with Solomon in front of me. He wasn't saying anything and the other girls didn't seem to notice. They were all too busy talking.

"Well?" I finally urged. He smiled slightly.

"You are going to arrive at Blackthorne before they get up for breakfast. Their Dining Hall isn't as...shall we say, bright...as the Grand Hall at Gallagher. Blackthorne is quite different from the Gallagher Academy. While Gallagher appears to be a place for rich students, Blackthorne is a place for troubled young men. You need to hide in the shadows. Stay unnoticed until I cue you. When you make your appearance known, go straight to the podium to introduce yourselves."

I nodded, but I had a few other plans. He looked at me. "Ms. Morgan, I meant it. Don't go planning things. You will do as I instruct or you fail." I sighed in defeat. How did he know?

We sat in silence for the rest of the ride. Finally, after 6 hours and 29 minutes, I felt the helicopter descend. A van was there with all of our bags. We grabbed them and followed Mr. Solomon inside. Like he said, the Dining Hall was dim and empty.

"Why is it so dark in here?" Anna asked.

"We told the boys that we're having lighting problems so you can hide easily" he said.

While everyone ducked behind things or hid under tables, I went to a corner and just stood there, leaning against the wall. Mr. Solomon turned to me.

"Ms. Morgan, are you sure that's where you want to be hiding?" he asked.

I smiled. "Am I a pavement artist?"

"Yes."

"Then I'm sure."

He grinned like he was proud. After a minute, the doors burst open to reveal a crowd of boys walking in. There were about one hundred boys. Can I just say that Blackthorne Boys are hot?

They saw Solomon and nodded to him. Apparently, they knew he would be here. The boys sat down, filling th tables. I saw Grant, Zach, Jonas, and some other kid at a table nearby. I figured that was the Junior's table. Nobody noticed me. So far, so good.

I heard the words "British Bombshell" come from Zach's table. I listened to their conversation. Zach was teasing Grant.

"It's not my fault she's so hot. I can't stop thinking about her! Zach, man, I know how you feel about Cammie now" Grant was saying. I grinned and kept listening.

"Cammie?" Zach looked confused.

"Yeah. Your Gallagher Girl" Grant said, smiling.

"Oh. I don't like her as much as you like Bex."

I kept my cool on the outside, but on the inside, I was mentally beating him up.

"What are you talking about, dude? You wouldn't shut up about her!" Jonas said. I smiled. I always did like Jonas.

"It wasn't serious."

I felt my anger boiling inside of me.

"Why not? Cammie's pretty, and funny, and I heard you like the fact that she's stubborn" Grant argued.

"Yeah, I do. She's pretty funny, but she's average looking. Practically invisible."

I took a deep breath and told myself that it's frowned upon to go kick his-

"Gentlemen, I have an announcement to make" Dr. Steve said. I stayed in my position. Either I'm a pretty good pavement artist, or these guys are dumber than I thought.

"Today, we have Joe Solomon joining us. He will be teaching Covert Operations this semester. Please welcome him to the school once again."

They watched him step up to the microphone and I saw the sly smile he had.

"Good morning, boys. I just had a few things to say. As you all know, fifteen boys went to Gallagher last year. So, how many of you think you're good spies?"

Every single boy raised his hand. I scoffed. These guys didn't even see me!

"How many think you're good at CoveOps?"

Some of them put their hands down.

"How many of you have never been beaten at your own game?"

Only about twenty hands stayed up.

"Well, I guess you should put your hands down now. You have just been beaten" Mr. Solomon said smugly.

They all looked confused.

"Ladies, please come out" he said. A few guys gasped as the girls came out of their hiding spots. I stayed put when Solomon winked at me. I knew what he was doing. The girls went up to the podium and stood behind my teacher.

I saw Zach's face get pale as he scanned the group for me. Color returned to his face when he didn't see me.

"Okay. Boys, how many girls are in this room?" Solomon questioned.

Twenty one.

They all said "Twenty" as if it were obvious.

Solomon grinned.

"Good job, Ms. Morgan. Come on over."

I started walking to the podium as the boys gasped.

I avoided Zach's gaze. He was going to pay.

A/N - Well? How was it? I wanted some drama between Zach and Cammie. Review because I know you love me! Haha, please? You know you want to!

Forever and Always,

Me
