✓ | Rewrite The Stars ── Zac Efron

(19 | the fourth wall )

DECEMBER 31, 2017

June never had a problem with drugs, but she knew Zac once did. Which is why she promised herself she'd look after him the entire night. Every time she was stressed, she'd reach her hand into her backpack and squeeze her stress ball.

"Hey," Zendaya put her hand over June's as it was clutching said stress ball. "There's nothing to worry about. If anything, I should be squeezing that thing." June chuckled as she tossed Zendaya the ball, the tall girl immediately squishing it. 

"We just gotta remember it's just a party," June zipped up her backpack and swung it over her shoulders. She was that person who brought the cute little backpack everywhere she went, it was like her signature trademark. "Parties aren't supposed to be stressful."

"You're right," Zendaya took a deep breath. "It's time we boss up," she unzipped June's backpack a little to slip in the stress ball. "There's no need to worry." 

"How do I look?" Zac joined the conversation, coming out of the guest room wearing black pants and a nice black button up shirt. Zac took the guest room while Daya bunked with June, as always.

"Snazzy," Zendaya hopped up on a barstool, crossing her legs when she sat. She was dressed in a long red dress with see-through sleeves and a slit on the skirt part, along with white heels and a white headband pushing back baby hairs that weren't tucked in her bun. June was wearing a black pencil skirt, a white blouse tucked into it, black heels and a red bow tied into her low ponytail. Class was written all over the three, despite the fact that at least one of them would be throwing up later on that night.

"What she said," June licked her red lipstick coated lips. 

Zac chuckled, playing with the ends of his sleeves. "Thanks. You two don't look too bad either."

The doorbell rang, making Zendaya jump, but it was the perfect interruption to June and Zac's almost awkward encounter. "I'll get it," June put her hand up, helping Zendaya's nerves. She walked over and opened the door with ease, Zac watching her every swift move.

"Ew," June sighed as she opened the door, her smile dropping. Of course, she was an actress, so she was only playing around, which only made the scene funnier. "It's grandma Holland, and he's brought a girl on each arm."

"At least I have the option of having girls on my arm," Tom Holland rolled his eyes. He was holding hands with his best friend, Jianna and with his best friend and maybe-something-more, Emma Brooke.

"Emma, Jianna," June changed her tone of voice and looked to each of the girls, also dressed up. "Nice to see you guys again, come on in."

Jianna walked in first, letting go of Tom's hand first to hug June and walk inside, almost immediately stopping in her tracks. "No one told me fucking Troy Bolton was here."

"Shit, really?" Emma let go of Tom too, ultimately pushing him aside and moving past June to see the man for herself. "Wow, you don't see this every day," Emma shook her head and chuckled.

"Hey, nice to meet you," Zac shook Jianna's hand before Emma's, June standing off to the side, laughing.

"Nice to see you again!" Emma almost immediately hugged June after. "It's been so long!"

"I know! I've missed you! This is way overdue!" June said.

"Hey." Jianna was next to hug June before making her way to a very happy Zendaya. June watched with a knowing smile but immediately tried to hide it. "Alright, let's get going! Everybody out of Casa la June Martin!"
