Live to Spy Another Day

Chapter 5

On the ride, home it stopped raining. The normally half an hour drive took over an hour due to girls arriving back at school. Most people never saw inside the walls. Zach and I were two of the exclusive group that knew what happened in those walls.

Well, there are a few that knew what happened but no longer do. Josh found out what the school taught. I remember that night, my first CoveOps final. I was "kidnapped" and the mission was to get a CD. We did pretty well. Everyone was caught but Anna who was hiding and as Mr. Soloman lectured us about he expected more of us, Anna slipped through the bars, grabbed the CD, and ran. Mr. Soloman was stunned. He forgot to count us. Moments later, a wall was knocked down by a bulldozer. Josh saw me get taken and he thought I was in real danger.

It was sweet that he wanted to help me. He found out our secret that night, but Mom gave him the memory tea afterwards and he forgot all of it. I met Zach the next year and again the semester after when Blackthorne had an exchange program. Soon after, we were a couple and going through danger together.

He helped me when The Circle of Cavan was after me. Then when I ran, he went crazy looking for me, trying to find me. Anyways, we went through a lot together. When we finally pass the school, Matt starts to cry. He doesn't like the car. I rock him and and by the time we get home, he is asleep.

We put Matt in his crib and walk to the kitchen. We have the rest of the dad together, and I plan on using it to my advantage. I start to melt some of the chocolate while Matt changes into something else. I don't know why he has to change, he wasn't the one to walk in the rain. When he comes back, he is only wearing jeans, and he is holding a pair of sweats, a t-shirt, and a towel. Zach walks up behind me and starts to dry my hair.

I quickly finish dipping fruit into the chocolate and then change into the dry clothes he brought. He hangs my wet clothes in the laundry room and then walks to the living room. He pops in a movie and I bring in the chocolate fruit. When the movie comes on, I laugh as Marvels The Avengers comes on. Zach is a spy yet he watches this. Most of this stuff is fake and I don't know who taught some of these people to fight. 

My favorite character is Natasha Romanoff. She actually fights like a real person. She is the only Avenger that doesn't have a super power or an awesome object like Captain America's shield. I actually know Scarlett Johansson. She is a Gallagher girl. She was a year older than me, but we still knew each other pretty well. Plus, before my pregnancy, when I still went on missions, I was coupled with her a few times. But since she is famous, she has to wear a wig and colored contacts.

We watch the movie, me cuddling into Zach and commenting all the mistakes. I annoy everyone when I do that but Zach can handle it- with this movie at least. Afterwards, we finish the snacks and head to the kitchen to wash the bowls and cups. I wash the dishes and Zach dries them. This is the longest we have had together other than sleeping. While I'm thinking, I feel a sting across my arm. I grab the item and quickly tug. Turns out its a rag and Zach comes crashing into me. My reflexes aren't fast enough to move out of the way, and I fall back. Zach catches me before I hit the ground, and keeps me in the dipped position. 

We are laughing so hard, that I slip out of Zach's hold and I collapse on the ground. I keep laughing and Zach pulls me up. We walk to the living room and I collapse on the couch. I soon stop laughing when Zach hovers over me. He brings his hands slowly up my body from my curves to my cheeks.

I feel a heat slowly rising up my body in time with Zach's hands. He softly places his lips on mine and I move my lips with his. The kiss quickly gets more heated and Zach wraps my legs around his waist. He stands up slowly and he heads to our bedroom. We haven't had the chance to do it for 3 months and we both needed to do this. Soon after we are both spent and I fall asleep in Zach's arms.

Sorry this is so short, but the next chapter will have a lot more action. I wrote this just to have a slow chapter before the action starts. I'm calling it slow because it is not a filler chapter. Hopefully  I can update before I leave for Europe. Thanks for reading!
