It's been more than three days since the little Zac accident as I like to call it. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday went by as fast as an lightening and today's Friday. Zac had tried to talk to me but I just gave him short answers and I didn't seem interested at all. He got tired of it of course and we just stopped talking to eachother. It's not a big of a deal really, I barely know the guy. The only thing that really makes me uncomfortable is that he's been here the past two nights to work on that project with Ashton. And it's kinda awkward when we pass eachother.

"Are you sure that you're going to stay here alone?" Ashton asks me with a concerned look on his face. He looks really good tonight, no wonders why he's so popular with girls.

"God damn Ashton, I can take care of myself, and besides.. parties are not my strongest interest." I say crossing my arms and Ashton lets out a chuckle.

Ashton nods as he gives me a quick hug.

"Call me if you need anything, I'll se you soon." He says as he disappears out of the door and it closes with an light sound.

I lock the door and make my way to the kitchen only a millisecond after. I pop some popcorn and take out my Harry potter mug to drink some soda, or as I like to call it: pop. Afterwards I take it all and place it on the little table in the tv room and I start a movie which is going to entertain me all night, high school musical. Call me a dork, I don't give a flying fly.

~~~~~~~~

Just as Gabriella is leaving Troy and I'm singing as high and dramatic as I can I hear something.

Klink klink

I pause the movie and stand up from the sofa, what the frick ? What's that sound?

Klink klink

What's going on? I start looking around trying to find the sound but with no luck.

"Psst Vanessa!" I hear a whisper. I turn around trying to decide if my mind is playing me a trick or if this is happening.

"Vanessa!! Up here!!" the voice whispers again.

I stiffen. "God?" I answer looking up to the ceiling and that's when the voice burst into a laughter.

My head immediately turns to the window that's open a slightly bit and I gasp when I see Zac sitting in a tree.

I walk over to the window and open it quickly facing the guy who's laughing his ass off.

"Zac! What are you doing in a tree?!" I yell. Zac doesn't seem provoked by my yelling at all.

"Did... you... really.. think..that was god ?!" Zac lets out between every laugh.

I nod and he laughs more.

"Did I really just witness you singing along to high school musical AND thinking you were talking to god?!" He laughs and I feel a light blush spread over my cheeks.

"Yeah yeah can you please get down from that tree before you hurt yourself please?!" I say and look down to the ground. It's very high and if he would fall he would deffo break a leg or something. This guy is really making me anxious.

"Ya sure." he says and before I can protest he manage in some strange way to sneak in from the window. Zac digs in his pockets and drops some pebbles out of the window and then he closes it.

Throwing pebbles on my window a Friday night... how cliché.

"Holy stubble Zac! You could've hurt yourself!" I tell once again and he chuckles. I shouldn't even be talking to him since we're not friends, he shouldn't even be here since Ashton is out.

"You're right, I could of have, I'm such a hero!" Zac says and he sits down on the couch and places the bowl of popcorn on his lap as he eats some.

"You make me anxious, and why would you call yourself a hero ?" I ask and sit as far as I can from him and I take the bowl from him eating the popcorn myself.

"Because I'm here to save your Friday night." he answers.

"What."

"Yep." he says popping the p.

"We're partying tonight Vanessa."

"WE'RE DOING WHAT?!" I yell for the third time tonight almost choking on the popcorn.

"We're going to a party. A party means that a group of people get together and we dance and take some sho..." he begins but I cut him off.

"I know what a party is Zac!"

"Good, then go get dressed, because those pjs aren't going to work on a party you know." he says taking the bowl of popcorn from me once again.

"I'm not going to a party." I say stubborn as I am.

"I took a huge risk to get in here."

"So?"

"Please please go with me to that party." he pouts and I would be lying to myself if I said that he didn't look absolutely adorable.

"No."

"Please." he moves closer to me and his chest is touching my shoulder.

"Nope."

"Vanessa.. please." he says once again and his nose brush my collarbone lightly.

"God damn okay okay, stop touching me!" I say and stand up from the couch.

Zac chuckles and looks at me.

"You know you like it though."

I shake my head.

"You're unbelievable.." I mutter.

"I still take that as a compliment." he says and starts the movie again and I start to walk to my room.

"Dress in something you think I would like!" he yells and I can't help myself as a chuckle escape my lips.

This guy really is unbelievable.

I'm quite satisfied with my appearance as I look myself in the mirror. My dark brown chocolate hair falls to my shoulders in natural curls. I have a black peplum blouse type of thing with black skinny jeans and a silver necklace that decorates my chest. As for makeup I just put on my simple everyday look, mascara and a little bit of bronzer. I put on some baby lips before I leave my room. Baby lips really makes my lips feel like a baby's bum.. maybe that's why they're called BABY lips...

When I'm in the tv room Zac turns around to face me.

"Finally I've been waiting for ag.." he starts and his eyes widen slightly as he sees me. He covers himself up quickly.

"es..." he finishes his sentence. I roll my eyes and turn off the tv and Zac stands up from the sofa.

"You're ready?" he asks and I nod.

"Then let's go!"
