A Group DM Is How It All Started {Completed}✅

chapter forty four

Janina's pov: I am mentally cheering Zach on, while they are performing live for the Today Show.

"If they were on national television right now, I'd be cheering my head off." Sarah whispered to me.

I turned to her and nodded.

"I would do the same thing." I whispered back.

"And lookie here chickees who I'm sitting with." Christina said quietly as she turned her vlog camera towards me and the other girls.

We all waved to the camera and mouthed our hellos, before she turned her camera back to the boys. I looked back at the boys, or well technically I just paid attention to Zach, and quietly sang along with them.

*skip to after the Today Show*

"Okay so now you guys are going to be meeting some fans." David informed the boys.

They all nodded their heads and followed David to where they were meeting fans. The girls and me stood behind the camera and just watched as fans met the boys. They all seemed so happy, the fans and the boys. The girls and me waved to some fans that were waiting in line causing them all the squeal loudly. I walked up to some of them and just talked to them.

"Their fans are so nice." I said once I went back to the girls.

They nodded their heads and agreed with me. Zach looked over at me and smiled. I smiled back and gave a small wave. He winked then turned back to a fan who came up to him.

"How do I manage to ship you guys more and more everyday?" Sarah asked.

I shrugged.

"It's probably cause we're just soooo cute together." I replied jokingly.

"Well, you're not wrong." Julia said.

"When am I ever wrong?" I asked.

"All the time." Kortnie joked.

I gasped jokingly and pretended to be hurt.

"I am never wrong." I sassed.

"Mhm sure." Kendra said chuckling.

"Okay, you guys are right, I usually am wrong." I said.

"More than half the time you're wrong." Meggie teased.

"Well that doesn't stop me from being fabulous." I joked as I flipped my hair.

I looked back at Zach and saw he was staring at me while smiling. I blushed then looked away.

"Your man is coming over here right now." Sarah whispered to me before winking.

I looked over and saw him walking towards me.

"Oh jeez." I said.

"Baby, come over there with me." Zach said as he stood in front of me.

"Do I have to?" I asked.

"Yes, cause I need to prove you wrong." He said.

"Can't you prove it later?" I asked.

"Nope." He said taking my hand and pulling me after him.

"So we're doing an interview and I want you in it with us." Zach said once we got to the boys.

My eyes widened and I shook my head.

"No no no!" I exclaimed.

"I literally look like a messy." I said.

"You look perfect to me." He said as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

I bit my lower lip and looked down.

"Zach, can I please not be in it?" I asked.

He sighed.

"If you really don't want to you don't have to, I guess." He replied.

I looked up at him and gave a small smile.

"Thank you." I said.

I gave him a quick peck on the lips before heading back to the girls. I heard multiple fan girls cheer once I kissed him which made my face turn red. When I got back to the girls, I looked over at Zach and noticed his cheeks were redder than usual.

"How come you didn't want to be in the interview with him and the boys?" Laurin asked.

"I don't want any hate, I already get some, so I'm not taking any chances to get more." I said.

"Hate comes with dating a celebrity, you just gotta get used to it." Christina said shrugging.

"You're a celebrity too though so you're used to the hate." I said.

"I'm not used to it, it just doesn't bother me as much as it used to." She replied.

"That can't be the only reason you didn't want to be on it." Julia said.

"You know how awkward I get when I'm uncomfortable so that's basically my other reason." I said shrugging.

They all nodded which basically meant they understand my reasoning.

*back at the hotel*

"We only have the rest of the day today and tomorrow to be together until the twenty sixth." I said sighing.

"I wish you could come back to LA with me." Zach said.

"Me too." I said.

"Next time, I go back home to Dallas, you wanna come down there too?" He asked.

"I'll probably be in school by the time you go back home to visit." I said laughing.

"No, I'll probably be there the weekend before you go back to school." He said.

"For Labor Day." He added as he shrugged.

"Well if I can convince my mom, then sure." I said smiling.

"Reese will be so happy to see you." He said as he chuckled.

"And I will be so happy to see her too." I said smiling.

"You know, I'd really like to meet your family." He said.

"Are you sure you really want to meet my family?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

He nodded.

"Of course, you've met my whole family, it'd only be fair if I met yours." He said.

"Well, you'll meet them eventually," I paused, "I just don't know exactly when."

"I hope soon." He said.

"You might not be able to meet my older brother though, he's off at college." I said.

"I'll meet him another time then." He said shrugging.
