RECONNECT - ZACH HERRON (WHY DON'T WE) *completed*

Chapter One

It has been two months since Zach left for LA. It started out great, he was basically talking to me every chance he could. From what he ate for breakfast, to what songs he sang at rehearsals, he told me every detail of his new life.

Now, I get a random text from Z if I'm lucky. He promised me. He said it was impossible to forget about me.

My phone rings and I jump at it from my bed, eager to validate that I am not forgotten.

I pick up my phone to see a text from my phone carrier reminding me not to go over my data usage. I fall back onto my bed in frustration.

If he is going to forget about me, hell yeah I'll forget about him too.

*three days later*

My phone rings and this time I'm less motivated to reach for it.

"Zach Herron is live on YouNow"

My heart drops...

Should I watch?

My hands shake as I set up my YouNow to watch Z. I open up his broadcast and see the viewer number go up... 1000... 2000... 3000

I don't even recognize him.

New clothes. New hair. New Z.

"Guys get in the guest queue! I'm guesting right now!" I hear Zach's familiar voice say.

I jump at one of my only chances to talk to my ex best friend. It's hard to stop caring.

I wait patiently for him to start guesting fans. Because that's what I've become: just a fan.

My head snaps up as he speaks to a fan from Malaysia. They chat for a while and he announces he is guesting a second person.

Suddenly, I am accepting a request to guest with Z.

"Hey guys this is my best friend Grace! She's from Dallas too!"

All the blood drains from my face. Time to give him a piece of my mind.

"I'm sorry I don't think we've met?"

He jumps and I can't help but smile a little bit.

"Graceee stop messing around. Guys she's kidding."

I turn my head and say, " If you consider a best friend someone you talk to once every blue moon, sure we're 'totally besties'!"

Zach awkwardly chuckles and runs his hand through his gelled hair.

I wave bye and blow a kiss just for show as I slam my laptop shut.

I walk out into my living room to find none other than Mama Herron laughing with my mom.

She sweetly chimes, "Gracie, it's been too long!"

I couldn't tell her that I was avoiding her. She looked too much like Zach and I couldn't handle anymore reminders of the boy I lost.

My mom chirps, "Guess what honey? I have the best news! Zach is coming back in two weeks for Christmas! Isn't that exciting?"

It's at this exact moment I look down at my phone and see:
