On the deleted scenes, Ally said that instead of Cam seeing Mr. mosckowitz working out, Zach is also an option. But she still wrote Mosckowitz on the deleted scene. Can you fulfill my (& I know most of us, ahem) fantasy of it being Zach??? Thanks!!!

There's something weird about having boys go to your all-girls school. For one, it's an all-girls school which means no boys. For two, it's a whole different thing when said boys are trained better than you are.

Cammie hadn't realized that with the arrival of these boys, a ton of drama would ensue. She felt like she was drowning. And for the first time in her life, she was starting to feel like she just wasn't good enough.

There was a time when she was one of the best in her class. There was a time when people would see her train and think "I aspire to be that".

But now she was being overshadowed.

And for being the Chameleon? She didn't like it at all.

"One of a girl's greatest assets are her feet. If you cannot balance on the balls of your feet and anticipate where your opponent's feet are moving, you will not make it away from a fight." Ms. Hancock tells them, making her way along the mats on the ground. "Pay attention to your partner's feet. Pay attention to their movements. Do they lean on their left foot before they move? Do they suck in a breath before they punch? Do they pay more attention to your feet or your hands? Anything can give away your next move, ladies,"

Cammie stared at Bex across from her, watching her best friend smirk. She'd been sparring with Bex since the sixth grade. She knew that Bex favored her left leg. She knew that Bex's weakness were her knees and her hair. (Which could be anyone's weakness, but Bex made it personal!)

And without hesitation, Cammie's arm shot out, aiming for Bex's head. Bex dodged it easily, leaning onto her right hip. She ducked and swung her leg out, aiming for Cammie's left knee. But, Cammie sidestepped, making Bex fall to the mat.

Ms. Hancock called time and Cammie helped Bex up off the mats. The two girls grabbed their water bottles, drinking from them eagerly. They started following each other out, chattering on and on about nonsense. Cammie didn't even turn as the group of boys entered the P&E barn, faces already red from doing runs outside.

Bex was the one who stopped her though, hand flying out in front of Cammie's chest before she even made it off the mats. Cammie almost yelled at her in protest until she followed Bex's gaze.

The group of boys, some with their shirts off, were already shoving and pushing each other. They were loud and energetic, hyped up with excitement for their workout. Cammie had never seen anything like it.

Her gaze snags on a certain boy with dark hair, separated from the rest. His shirt is slowly getting drenched in sweat as he lags behind. Most would think he's slow and a weak link but, Cammie knew better. And she hated that the boy in question was making his way over to her.

Or so she thought.

Zach stopped a few feet behind the girls, lifting his shirt to wipe the sweat off his face. He lifted his arms up above his head, his shirt lifting again. The Blackthorne boy shifted on the balls of his feet. Cammie couldn’t stop the image of Zach’s toned calves from entering her mind.

Cammie could feel her cheeks turning red which had nothing to do with the sweat already on her body. She wasn't staring of course but, she could see Zach out of the corner of her eye.

The boys were split away from each other. Some were down on the ground, doing pushups, their legs out straight and their chests a mere inch from the floor. Others had taken it upon themselves to throw punches at each other. But not Zach.

Zach was working out alone, no partner. No spotter. He preferred it that way.

Cammie tried not to notice Zach in the corner of the barn. She tried to focus on her own training or even moving her feet forward. But that was nearly impossible when the Blackthorne Boy in question was doing pull ups.

Zach's face was scrunched up with concentration as he pulled himself up over the bar. He alternated his legs, bringing them to his stomach and then letting them fall, never breaking stride.

Cammie could see the muscles straining beneath his shirt, see the tightening of the skin on his biceps. She could only imagine the smooth skin of his abs glistening with sweat. She knew he had lost count but, Cammie hadn't. 12... 13... 14...

Cammie hit the mat with a thunderous smack.

Her head hit the floor hard, her body crumbling beneath her. The fall left her gasping for air, chest heaving. And all she could see was Bex's snickering expression above her.

"Distracting, huh, Cammie dear," Bex said in her perfect accent.

Cammie coughed, trying to get air back into her lungs. She glared at Bex. Her eyes wide with anger. Until a tall figure entered her cloudy vision.

"Need a hand, Morgan?" Zach said, his eyes glistening with pride. He held out his hand again, this time in her line of sight.

Cammie cleared her throat and grabbed his hand, letting him pull her to her feet. Cammie couldn't look him in the face. She knew her face was redder than Liz when she fell asleep by the pool in Alabama.

"Do you find me distracting, Gallagher Girl?" Zach asked, smirking so wide. He was practically grinning from ear to ear. And Cammie hated it.

"In your dreams, Zachary." Cammie said quickly, before turning on her heel and nearly running out of the barn.

She didn't think she ever felt heat like that when she was training before.

And she wouldn't mind if she felt it again.

New Ally Carter book is an adult novel! So exciting, can't wait until next August!!

[gildengirl]

Every now and then, I forget that there's a deleted scene from CMH, where Joe literally shoves Cammie and Zach into a safe and is like, "Have fun!"

Joe Solomon really is the biggest Zammie shipper of them all, and he has absolutely no subtly about it. Like, ZERO chill at all.

oh fictional older sisters, you'll always be tragic.

[chaoticbug]

I'm rereading gallagher girls and can I just say I'd Tell You I'd Love You But Then I'd Have to Kill You is so funny if you think about it from Josh's perspective.

Like you're just vibing at a fair and then all the sudden you see a girl reaching her hand into a trashcan to grab a soda bottle, you make eye contact and the first thing she says is "I have a cat." You have a silly little conversation about her cat who loves bottles, and learn she is homeschooled for religious reasons and then you leave thinking she's cute.

Then you run into her a few more times including at outside your neighbors surprise party, that she claims she was going to but then never enters. You ask this girl how to keep in touch because you like her, and she says no phone or email, leave notes in this wall instead???? You try to figure out what church this "homeschooled for religious reasons and doesn't have a phone" girl goes to and you have no idea.

You start dating her-still messaging through the wall- she never lets you take her home, she gets really confused when you give her a present on her birthday, almost like she forgot it was her birthday?

Then your friend claims that your girlfriend isn't actually homeschooled, she actually goes to the super exclusive boarding school for rich girls in your home town. When you catch her outside the school, she breaks up with you, claiming she was bored and that's why she dated you and then she IMMEDIATELY GETS KIDNAPPED.

So you do what any normal person would do, you call the cops. you try and rescue her and she's mad about it??? Claims it was a school thing??? And now she's fighting people off and ziplinning away while saying she never had a cat???

So your next rational move is to steal a forklift and drive it through the wall to save your girlfriend from whatever craziness she's involved in.

Then you're taken back to the boarding school, learn its actually a school for spies, your girlfriend is a spy and has lied to you about every single detail about herself, even down to her birthday and her dad being dead. Literally nothing you know about this girl except for her first name is true, and you've been dating for months.

And then her mom gives you special tea that makes you forget everything since she dumped you and you immediately start dating your girl best friend.

Like this poor man lmao

anyone interested in talking about the iconic 2000's middle-grade-bordering-on-ya book series gallagher girls??

[giftedpoison]

It boggles my braincells sometimes thinking about how some people just weren't heavily influenced by their media as I was??? Like when i was kid i grew up reading Gallagher Girls and watching House of Anubis so duh I learned to pick locks, want to learn as many languages as possible, and martial arts. (And also is why I never see lying as a bad thing but a skill.) (Reading Alias and Red Blazer Girls was also a heavy contributor)

Or I started learning ASL because of a tv show I watched in middle school (switched at birth- unsurprising) but now I love the language because I love being able to communicate without talking (although that's more small words that i teach people the meaning so i don't have to use my voice) and learning about the Deaf community.

Or learning sleight of hand because of Kaz Brekker. Chess because of Beth Harmon (I'm determined I'd be pretty good at it if I could just figure out the middle game) Like pick a hobby i have and i'll tell you which fictional character gave it to me. (with the exception of reading, music, writing, researching, and art) These are all exceptionally useless capabilities (other than maybe language learning and lying and you can make an argument that martial arts is a lifetime fitness) and yet they mean a fuck ton to me.

YOU. GUYS. SEPTEMBER 24TH???

[cammie-morgan-goode]

I remember on twitter, ally said that if it is zach's pov, it would be a lot of ooh that cammie girl doesn't know shes great and I feel like it's mostly for CMH, but when do you think that thoughts turn into something more? like when he starts thinking about her in a great, romantic, i'm crushing way?

I think in the beginning Zach was just so enamored by Cammie's skills as a spy. In DC and on, when he realizes just how good she actually is. I think he admired her and her confidence as a pavement artist. Which we find out during the coin pass, when the two of them are in the gazebo.

Zach wasn't smitten with Cammie until later in CMH. But I think truly, that he was just so impressed with her and her skills. And he knew that he could make her squirm. Zach knew things about Cammie that she didn't even know herself yet. And he knew that he could get under her skin in a way that nobody else could. Like before the Code Black. In the library. When she froze with Josh, and he used that as an advantage.

Now, the ball scene when he ran after her thinking something was wrong and the gazebo scene when he said that someone out there knows about Matt. Zach was slowly giving Cammie hope that she was a good enough spy and that there was a slight possibility that Matt's disappearance wasn't over.

I think it truly hit him after the ball scene when she ran off because there was a slight possibility that he had done something wrong. That he had made her upset. That he had hurt her feelings. Or heaven forbid, she would hate him already. I think he was scared of all of those things but ultimately that Cammie would be done with him. That Cammie wouldn't care anymore. That she was done with his games. And if that was the case, Zach would have understood, and he would have left her alone. I'm a firm believer of that.

I think after the ball scene, he realized that there was just something about Cammie Morgan that he couldn't shake. There was something about her that was stuck on him. And there was no way he was going to just let that go.

Now to add to all that, there was still the gap between the two of them. The secrets that Zach was keeping and the fact that Cammie was out of the loop. But there was still something between the two of them that neither of them could shake. Something that Zach couldn't shake no matter how hard he tried. And for the first time in his life, he had a secret that nobody knew about. He had a secret that his mother didn't know about. Which is why he was so adamant about keeping the code black meeting a secret between just Cammie and him. He didn't want that finding its way back to Catherine.

I do also have more on this if you want to look at the tab under Zach's analysis on my masterlist.

Full Circle "1978" (Joe)

“Yeah, I know,” he says. “Your name is Ezekiel, but everyone else has a cool nickname, so I don’t see what the big deal is—”

“No,” he says, quieter this time. Matt’s at the very top of the rope, and Zeke is at the very bottom. They couldn’t be farther away from one another, and yet Matt still feels like they’re whispering from mere inches away. “My name is Joe.”

The Gallagher Academy in the fall ༄˖°.🍂.ೃ࿔*:･

[g-girlshavingfun]

Matt: [On the phone to Joe who’s babysitting] Keep your eye on Cammie. She has a tendency to wander off.

Joe: [seeing Cammie is gone] Matt... uh, wh-wh... I'm... I'm totally capable of...

Matt: You lost her, didn't you?

Joe: No. No, no, no, no. No, she is right next to me. Hi, Cammie.

Matt: I can hear it in your voice. Look in the dairy case.

Joe: [finding Cammie but struggling with doors] Matthew, do you honestly think that I would lose...

Matt: The doors don't pull. They slide.
