As promised!

-=-ZOE'S POV-=-
I woke up really late. I have to add that I'm not really a morining pearson..I am just cranky and easily annoyed when I first wake up. I looked at the clock, it was about 1 pm..OH SHIT I MISSED TRAINING! (Oh, did I forget to mention that I play football/soccer? Yeah, yeah I did, sorry) I checked my phone and I had a couple of phone calls and messages from my coach, who was apparently reeeally mad, and Zach. Why would he call me? I mean, I expected that we're just gonna stay in that awkward 'friend-relationship-thingy'...you know when you meet someone and you never talk to them again, but you see them almost every day? Yeah, that one.
I had mixed feelings about meeting him...I just don't really know..I mean, I don't know if this is going to work out...whatever 'this' means. I sighed and called my coach...I will need a good explanation, which I don't have.
"Zoe! I have tried to contact you all morning! Where are you?! Why did you miss training?!"
"Sorry coach, I kind of slept through it"
"You know that we have an important game in two months, right!?"
"I know, I know, I am so so sorry. It will never happen again, promise."
"Okay, scince you missed training today you will have to do extra tomorrow! See ya at 7 missy!"
He hung up before I could protest, because he knew that I would...I groaned and got up from bed. I still had to see why Zach called me, so I texted him.
Zoe- Hey, why did you call me earlier today?
I pressed send and went to take a shower.
---------------
As I was showering I heard a knock on my door...Crap! I'm naked! I put a towel around me and went to open the door.
"Hey!", a overly excited voice said...oh, of course it was Zach, what did you expect?
"Ugh..hi?", I blushed as he saw that I was almost naked and chuckled.
"Did I interrupt something?", he laughed.
"Well, you actually did.", I smirked.
"I see, I see..", he looked up, "nice weather today, isn't it?", he said nervously. This guy is up to something.
"It's raining outside...", I said getting serious, "why are you actually here, Zach?", I raised my eyebrow.
"Well....I-I", he shuttered.
"Spit it out! I don't have all day, you know!"
"Okay, okay! Don't rush me!", he looked back at me, "I just wanted to know it you'd like to go out today...you know...with me...for dinner?", he asked more nervous than ever. We were both silent for a couple of moments.
"Like a..date?", I smirked and he blushed.
"Call it what you want!", he yelled half lauging, "just give me the answer!"
"Yes, sure.", I said smiling. I tried to look the least excited, but I was dancing on the inside.
"Perfect!", he smiled, "see you at 4, bye!", he ushered back to his apartment before I could say anything...well that was wierd.
------------
I finished showering and ate breakfast. I wore my peach crop top and white skinny jeans with flower themed Vans. I curled my hair and grabbed my phone and some money and put them in my pocket, it was 4 pm. I heard a knock on my door, perfect timing. I opened the door and saw Zach with a smile on his face, he was dressed fancy.
"Hey, you ready?", he asked with excitement.
"Yes...but where are we going anyways?"
"You'll see.", he smirked.
"I hate surprises", I groaned.
"Too bad", he teased.
We got to his car and he drove off in an unknown direction.
------------
We arrived at a fancy restaurant on the other side of town. It was really chilly out..I am an idiot, why did I dress up like this even though I knew that it was shitty outside? Ugh.
"Hey, you cold?", Zach asked noticing that I was starting to shiver.
"No, it's really hot outside, as you see.", I answered sarcastically and Zach chuckled and handed me his jacket.
"Thanks", I smiled.
"No problem", he smiled back.
--------------
We made our way to the rastaurant and took our seats.
"So, what do you want to order?", Zach asked as he was looking through the menu.
"I think I'll take chicken and fries with salad..", I answered.
"I am guessing you like chicken?"
"Ugh..yeah, that's my favourite meal."
I am guessing that that was a failed pick-up line...
Luckily, the waiter arrived and broke the awkwardness.
"Good evening, mister and miss, may I take your order", he politely asked.
Mister and miss? Pffft...
"Um, yes, I'll take chicken and fries with salad please.", the waitor wrote it down and looked over to Zach, expecting his answer.
"..I'll take the same order as her", the waitor nodded and went away.
"Soo.."
"Soooo..."
"Umm...how's your day been, Zach?", I asked him to break the awkwardness.
"Fine..great!", he said overly excited,
"And how about you?", I sighed.
"There were better days..."
"Why? What happened?", he asked worried.
"I probbably never told you...I play football all the time, I slept through practice today and I have to do extra training tomorrow", just the thought about that made me feel like shit...don't get me wrong, I love football, but training is a real pain in the ass.
"I can come with you!", he smiled, "..you know, to keep you company..so you don't get bored.", I smiled.
"Oh, thanks Zach! You are such a sweetheart!", I leaned across the table to hug him, he did the same.
"So when does it start?"
I broke the hug. "At 7 am", I started laughing as I saw the look on his face, "good luck getting up!"
He sighed. "I didn't want to sleep anyways..", we both laughed and our food arrived.

-=-ZACH'S POV-=- (FINALLY)
I had a great time with Zoe on the dinner, we talked about all sorts of stuff. She told me that she started playing soccer when she was 8 and that she speaks German fluently..interesting. But, when I brought up the theme of parents, she didn't look happy and refused to talk about it...I understand, after all, I didnt talk about myself that much aswell..
She is a very smart and beautiful girl, I love being around her, she always makes me happy and distracts me from the harsh reality...I think I like her, a lot.
-----------------------------
Okay, so chapter is finished!
I hope you guys liked it, it took me a long time to write it, althogh I already have the story wtitten in my notebook, I decided to add a bit of a 'side story' just to make things more interesting! ('The date' wasn't originally in the story, nor Zoe playing football/soccer) Something interesting is gonna happen soon, and all I could say is that it involves other Cube members! (You're welcome)
Don't forget to comment and vote, it means a lot to me!
Happy reading!
