(completed) Over It • zach herron

real life

it was a couple weeks later, about 3, when saige got the call. the horrible horrible call. the pennsylvania show. the guys were on the couch in the front of the tour bus, and saige was in the back, laying down in her bunk.

her phone had rung, waking her from a light nap. it was an unknown number, but she answered any way.

"hello? is this saige daniels," the voice on the phone asked, sounding very professional.

"yes, this is her? who's calling," i asked, sitting up.

"i understand you're out of state right now, but you will probably want to come home as soon as you can after you hear this," i sucked in a sharp breath, nervous for what the lady was going to say, "well, my name is natasha, and i work at the new jersey hospital. i regret to inform you, but your family has been in a horrible car crash. um, i'm not sure how to tell you this, but your parents m, unfortunately, died on impact, and your sister is in surgery right now, and if she makes it through, will go straight to the ICU. it seems she has hit her head very badly." i almost dropped my phone. i started screaming, and crying.

"thank you for calling, i'll be there as soon as i can," i said through the phone, you probably couldn't understand a word i said, because i was sobbing so hard, but i think the lady understood.

"saige? what happened, what's wrong," zach rushed in worry very apparent on his face. i couldn't say anything, so i just sat there and sobbed. zach understood this, so he crawled into my bunk and sat with me.

"hey saige, shh, please tell me what's wrong, and we can try and figure out what to do," he whispered in my ear.

"i need to get home zach. like right now, please take me home," i sobbed, gripping onto his hand for dear life.

"why, what happened baby," he said, pulling me into his side.

"my, my family got into a accident," i say, sobbing harder, "my parents are dead,both of them, and my sister is in intensive care."

"oh saige, i'll get you home as soon as i can. you wait here," he said getting up.

i layed back down, letting my cry's fill the empty space. i hadn't seen my parents in a month or so and i felt horrible. even if i called them everyday, it was different than actually seeing them.

"hey saige," zach said, poking his head into my bunk, "i got us tickets for new jersey for tonight." i looked over at him.

"zach, you cannot come you'll be missing a bunch of shows. i can handle myself," i say.

"saige,i'm not coming because you can't handle yourself. i'm coming for you, because like you're my girlfriend, and i love you," i looked at him with a smile, thenmy eyes slowly grew wider and wider.

"wait, did you just say you love me?" i asked, his face grew red.

"i,um i'm sorry saige. i understand if you don't say it back it's like early in the relationship and stuff," i cut zach off with a weak smile, i was still crying but obviously happy.

"shut up zach. i love you too, but like i don't want you missing shows because of me. i'm sure your fans will be mad. i don't want them to hate me," i say.

"don't worry baby, i'm sure they'll understand what happened, you've lost your family and i'm going to be there to support you because you're my girlfriend and i love you," he says with a smile on his face. i smile back, and tell him to come cuddle with me, and cheer me up till we have to leave for the airport.
