After a long day of shooting, Zac finally arrived at his on-set trailer. He slipped off his custom fitted loafers by the door before grabbing his phone out of his pants back pocket as he walked over and plugged it into the wall charger that was near his bed. Letting out a breath of exhaustion, he plopped himself onto the bed, snatching a pillow as he stashed it underneath his neck for support. 

Picking up my phone from the small side nightstand, I quickly typed in my passcode soon revealing the phones home screen. My eyes squinted slightly from the screens bright lucent light, soon hovering my thumb over my messaging icon, I then clicked on it.

7:34am  


Staring blankly at the message for the third time today for a few minutes, Zac finally discarded it before chucking his phone back down on the stand. He sighed running his hands down his face as unsettling thoughts ran through his head.

"I don't want to talk about it Stell." Vanessa sighed, closing the lid to her Mac laptop as she gave her sister who had just entered her bedroom a look. 

Stella bit at her bottom lip, crossing her arms over her chest. "Vanessa.." 

"For God's sake, stop prying into everything!" Vanessa suddenly blurted, running her hands through her hair. 

Stella arched her brows, a bit taken back. 

Vanessa looked over to her again, she sighed deeply seeing her hurt expression, "I'm sorry, babe." She said softly, shaking her head. 

"Don't worry about it," She gave a small sympathetic smile, walking over to Vanessa who made herself comfortable on her queen sized bed. She plopped herself down on it as she took her hand in hers.  "You already know I'm always gonna be here for you," She gave her had a squeeze.

"I know." Vanessa smiled, pecking a quick kiss on the top of her hand. "Things are just a bit hard right now.." 

Stella softly nodded, looking down at their embraced hands. 

"I love him." Those three haunting words escaped Vanessa's lips as she pulled off a small laugh  that soon turned into an emotional breakdown. 

Stella pulled her sister into her arms, letting her cry out into her shoulder, as she closed her eyes hating to see her in such emotional pain.
