...
The next morning I wake up around 10:30am and take a quick shower.
I think I'll go swimming today!! Since Dallas gets very hot in the summer, almost every house in this area has a pool in the backyard.
Zach's pool has a slide that Mr. Herron built for Ryan when he was younger and now the whole family uses it.
I text Zach and tell him that I'll be go swimming in about 20 minutes.
Zach: Hey babe, you should go swimming in my pool!! Reese has been begging for you to come over and try out the water slide we have ;)
We go swimming in the pool and Myta brings out fresh lemonade and juicy watermelon slices.
Reese goes down the slide multiple times in a row, shoving Ryan out of the way every chance she gets.
"Y/n, want to go down the slide with me?" Zach asks with a wink.
"Of course I do" I reply with a smile.
I climb up the ladder first and sit down at the top of the slide, making sure not to slip down yet. Zach climbs up and sits down right behind me. He raps his arms around me and we slide down super fast.
When we hit the water we both make a huge splash. We sink down to the bottom of the pool and kiss under water. Air bubbles are surfacing all around us.
We float to the top and take a huge breathe of air. When we wipe our eyes and look around, we realize that our splash completely soaked the sun bathing chairs :( Still worth it!!
Zach gets out of the pool and helps me out as well. We dry off and and decide to go for a walk around the neighborhood.
By the time we get back, its 2:30pm and we are starving for lunch. Myta had made pasta salad while we were gone!!
I grab a bowl and start to scoop the delicious mixture. Zach and I sit down outside on the sun chairs, since they are all dry now.
After tanning in the sun we part ways and I head over to my house.
Today is my moms birthday, which is kind of odd since my birthday is in a little over a week. I haven't spoken to her in months but I still feel the need to give her a call.
I call her after about 15 minutes of debating what to say and repeating my script over and over again in my head.
Luckily she didn't pick up the phone so it was very easy to leave a voicemail.
I'm going to babysit Reese and Ryan tonight while Myta and Mr. Herron go on a date. They try to make Saturday nights date-night as often as possible.
They are going out to a restaurant and were wondering if I could keep Zach company.
After they leave, Zach and I relax upstairs in his room and watch some Netflix. Things escalate quickly when we make our way from the bean bags on his floor to his bed.
We are kissing intensely at this point and I feel his hand start to work up my thigh. I get butterflies in my stomach.
Part of me doesn't want him to stop, but the other part knows that this is way too soon.
I know I'm not ready to do anything like that with Zach yet, we've only been dating for a day at this point.
Instead, we decide to go live on YouNow.
"Hey guys this is my girlfriend, y/n y/ln!" Zach says with excitement. He immediately starts reading the messages popping up on the side of the screen.
Some people are commenting nice things, and others...not so much. Some are calling me "ugly" and "a gold digger". I try to brush these things off and not let them get to me.
After about an hour or so we start to end the YouNow.
"Ok guys remember to follow me on all my social media @imzachherron, and follow my girlfriend too @y/n!! I love you all and Ill talk to you soon. Peace" Zach says as he ends the live stream with one click of a button.
"Well, that was interesting..."I say nervously.
"Did you not like it? I'm sorry if I made you feel pressured or anything." He says with such an apologetic tone.
"No, no babe it's not that. I'm just worried that your fans don't like me. I read some of the comments they were leaving on the YouNow and some of them were really harsh." I immediately say.
"Y/n, are you kidding? Haters are everywhere but most of those comments were nice!! Check your Instagram, I bet you have a ton of new followers." He says reassuringly.
I used to have 850 followers, I just checked and now I have 12,450 followers!!! This is so crazy.
I wonder I'm being a burden to Zach since I'm not known widely on social media. People don't have a reason to like me, just a reason to hate me because I'm "stealing their man".
Whatever, I can't let it bother me too much...this is the path I've chosen by dating THE Zach Herron.
