I wake up in my bed with Zachs arms around my waist and his head burried in my chest. I look out the window and we it's still dark out. I look over at my clock and see that it's 4:46 am. I'm about to close my eyes when I realize someone is sniffling. It's Zach!

"Zach what's wrong?" I ask him as I rub his back. He jumps a little at first then sighs.

"N-nothing sweets go back to sleep" he says but he's still sniffling.

I sit up and make him look at me. I turn on my lamp so we can actually see. It's bright at first but my eyes adjust, and when they do I see Zach, his eyes bloodshot, his nose red and his cheeks blotchy.

"Oh Zach. Please tell me. Is it about your dad?" I ask in a calm voice while I take his hand and rub his knuckles lightly. He nods slightly, looking down.

"Well yeah sorta. Of course I'm worried anything can happen in surgery and I just want him to be okay.but that's not all. I feel like I'm burdening you by staying here and I cant get what Rylee said earlier out of my mind." He sighs and I single tear rolls down his cheek.
I reach up and wipe the tear. But I leave my hand on his cheek and he looks up at me. I look down at his lips, thinking if I have enough courage to actually kiss him right now. I look back to his eyes and see he's staring at my lips. I start to lean in and so does he.

And then our lips meet. I don't wanna sound all cheesy and stuff, but it was magical. His lips molded into mine and I felt sparks fly. I smile into the kiss and he does the same. Good, he feels it too. That one kiss turns into a make-out session and he pulls me in by the waist to deepen the kiss. I didn't want it to end and I could tell he felt the same, just by the way his lips moved against mine but of course we needed air so we had to pull away.

"Whoah" we both say at the same time. Then we burst out laughing.

"Okay so before that happened you said you couldn't stop thinking about what Rylee said. Well Zach instead he was lying. I don't like him anymore, I'm like you. And only you. That's why your my boyfriend. And Zach of course your not burdening me, I love that we can hang out more. And after all I did invite you to stay. And don't worry about your dad either, I'm sure he's out of surgery by now and that he's doing just fine Zach."

He looks at me and smiles. And before I know it I'm engulfed in a huge bear hug. I smile and kiss his soft cheek when we pull away.

"Thank you. Your the best." He says smiling. I smile back and kiss his adorable little nose as a response.

"Do you wanna skip school today?" I ask him "I mean it's okay if you don't but if you do I'll stay with you. Ya know cause there's a lot that happened yesterday and I just thought we could use a break and spend some quality boyfriend girlfriend time" I say in a hopeful voice.

"Of course, that sounds amazing. Anything you want sweets." I smile what he calls me. That must be my new nickname, sweets.

"Yayyy. Okay Zachy bear, let's go back to bed, I'm pooped." I say as I smile at the nickname I gave him. He smiles and plops backwards onto the end again.

"Oh shit" I say

"What?" He asks as he sits up again.

"I just realized I'm still wearing this shirt. And now I'm all sticky and I have to shower" I say putting my lips out in a pout. He smiles and gives me a quick peck on the lips, making my pout turn into a smile.
"I'll be right here waiting when your done sweets." He says softly. I giggle and peck

I get up and grab some new clothes and scurry off to the bathroom.

*Skip the shower*

I put my hair up in a messy bun and head back to my room. Zach is asleep and he looks so cute. I quickly take a pic of him and crawl into bed next to him. He wraps his arms around my waist and burries his head in my chest again. He makes an "mmmmm" sound and kisses my collar bone softly before dozing off again. I kiss the top of my head and doze off myself. Tomorrow will be a good day.
