Chapter 17:

*LUNA'S POV:

A beam of water shooting at my forehead woke me suddenly. I peeked up from my pillow, wiping the liquid dripping down my face. With no memory of even falling asleep last night, waking up to your best friend spraying you with your dog's obedience bottle leaves room for confusion. What, I groaned, pulling the covers up as a shied. 

"Wakey wakey! It's late, get your ass up."Zoie said, playing with the handle.

"Why? I'm tired, Zoie. And why do you have Apollo's spray bottle?"

"It was on the counter and I saw opportunity." she shrugged, "C'mon, Audy, I wanna go to the zoo today."

"The what?" I asked groggily, rubbing my eyes.

"The zoo, can't you hear?"

"Can you give me a goddamn second to wake up?" I laughed, "I was up late last night."

She asked, "Doing what?"

"Not being able to fall asleep." I mumbled, sitting up. "Isn't it a little too late now to go to the zoo?"

"Nope, not this one. This one is open until 1am! It's probably an hour from here. There's glow in the dark paint on the paths and even on some of the exhibits. There won't be a lot of kids there either. Hell, a lot of people won't be there, so we'll basically have a zoo to ourselves." she rejoiced.

"I'm going to ask-"

"Your mom? Already did and she's fine with it. She loves me."

"Wow, my next question was if she even knew you were here. You do like to make shocking entrances, like through my window at two in the morning!" I exclaimed, throwing my hands in the air and laughing at the memory. 

"Hey, I was bored, alright?" she laughed, "Now get dressed."

"At least I took a shower last night." I said, raiding through my closet.

"Did that shower happen to be with Eddie when he came over?" she asked, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Nope," I simply said, throwing my chosen outfit at her.

"You don't take advantage of good opportunities."

"Taking a shower with Eddie wasn't exactly high up on my list of priorities last night." I sighed, trying to find my hairbrush.

"And what could possibly be above taking a steamy shower with your insanely hot boyfriend?"

"A lot, Zoie. I'm really freaking out about this."

"He's still acting weird?"

"Yes! It's like he's gradually worsening!"

"Do you want to talk about it? I don't know how to help with something like this but I can try."

"No, no it's okay," I shook my head.

"Are you sure? I don't want to make you do anything you don't want to do."

"Thank you, but it's okay, really." I answered, "I don't want to worry about all that stuff today. We're gonna have a carefree time at the zoo today and that's all that matters."

"Okay, as long as you're good. Now get ready while I'm downstairs eating your food."

"We are not spending our entire time at the zoo looking at elephants."

"I know."

"Or manatees,"

"I kn-"

"Or hippos."
