●Zach's POV●
I face palmed. What possessed me to say that i missed her already! It's the truth, that much i knew, but i didn't want to freak out.
Believe it or not, i couldn't stop thinking about her, and i hardly even talked to her that much. Just casual conversations throughout the week, nothing much.
It felt so weird. This whole thing was screwing with me. I have never felt this way before. I knew the perfect person who would know the answer to my dilemma.
My mother.
She would know what's wrong with me. With that thought in mind, i headed out of my room after completing my homework, to look for her.
After a while, i found her in the kitchen. Her favourite place to be whenever she is free from work.
"Hey honey. You seem to be in deep thought. Do you have something that i can maybe help you with?" She asked whilst sipping on her coffee.
"Uhm yes. Well i hope you can. I'm confused. I'm having weird feelings and i don---" She cut me off.
"What's her name?" She asked with a knowing look on her face. How did she know what i was just going to say?!
This happens all the time and more often than not, i'm thankful for it because there were times where she saved me from rather embarrassing moments.
"You're like an open book to me sweetheart and i used to be a teenager once, believe it or not." She said playfully.
I rolled my eyes. "Yeah mom. It's called the human life cycle. And don't worry, it's perfectly natural."
"Don't act smart with me young man! Now, tell me what's her name"
"Zinnia. She is from school and---"
"Of course." She snorted cutting in. I glared at her playfully before finishing my sentence.
I sat down on a stool in front of her at the island."And she is in some of my classes. I can't stop thinking about her. I have no idea why, so i decided that you would be the best person--" she cut me off. Again.
"Of course i am! I'm just that cool that's why." She smirked. The smirk is like a signature trait in the Anderson family and i'm proud of it.
"So, any suggestions as to why i feel this way?" I asked.
Deep down, i feel like i already know the answer but i just needed some sort of validation so that i know that i'm not crazy, nor am i jumping to conclusions.
"You like her. Simple as that." Mom stated in a matter-of-fact tone. I wasn't surprised at what she said.
"At least i know that i'm not jumping into conclusions or going crazy."
She laughed. "No, you're not. And the reason i know this is because, i felt the exact same way when i met your dad. I almost pulled my hair out of it's roots in frustration because i was as clueless as they come when it came to love." I snickered. Who would've known.
"Your dad and i learned new things as we progressed into the relationship. Every relationship is different. There isn't a guide for dummies when it comes to love or anything. You just have to roll with it as you go on. It's not easy but let me tell you one thing, it may sound cliche, but having someone there for you who would love you despite your flaws, protect you and be your best friend, is a different feeling altogether. When you get to that stage, you will understand what i'm saying son. Now it may seem sappy and all that jazz to you," exactly my thoughts, "but when you are in that situation, it is a whole different ball game." She said.
"We will see about that. But thank you anyways mom. I'm taking her out to lunch tomorrow by the way because i want to get to know her more. She is rather intriguing."
She smiled and nodded then went back to her coffee.
I took that as a cue that the conversation was over and decided to head up to my room to digest this conversation and think about it.
Tomorrow should be exciting.

Hey guys! Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! The date will be the next chapter! They will get to know more about each other and stuff like that. This is pretty much a filler chapter that's why it is short. I promise the next chapter will be longer than this one. The next chapter might be up earlier than scheduled!
Sorry for any grammatical mistakes as it is not edited yet.

Until next time! :)

FOREVER
Teen Fiction"Aren't you going to bid your father goodbye?" I asked. I never knew why they acted this way with him. For the life of me, i simply couldn't understand the reason for this rude behaviour from the 3 of them. They turned around and said goodbye to Zac...
