Gone Ghosthunting With Chanel

24. More Traditional?

Chapter 24 - More Traditional?

Zak had just told us we were apparently going to Kentucky. What's in Kentucky? nothing good I figured as Aaron and nick protested this Mackeys place, but they must Have gone there before. Nick started off first "no way man."

Aaron tagged in too "yeah dude. We can't."

Ian ever seemed to know what this meant "why on earth do you wanna go back there zak?" He asked as zak finally looked up at everyone "we have to. People are still being attacked" he declared.

As the conversation went on I listened, and as I listened it sounded more and more like a possible bad idea to go to this place.

Once the meeting ended we walked out defeated. It was settled were going to Kentucky then.

I went to my office to finish up some work when I was interrupted by zak knocking lightly on the doorway.

"Good Morning Miss Viktor" he said in a professional tone. I giggled at this as he began to smile.

"Good morning Mr Bagans." I said in a playful manner as he sat down in front of my desk.

"Look I have a serious favor to ask." He said as he looked at me

I looked back at him "what is it?" I asked burning to know what it was.

"This lockdown is gonna be dangerous and exhausting. We are only going for 2 days, and we will be back on the 3rd morning."

I looked at him as he spoke and he continued "Ian and I think it's best if Chanel stayed behind in Nevada for this one."

I looked at him in shock. I didn't want to leave Chanel.

"Well I just won't go. Problem solved" I said smiling still feeling slight effects of my spiked coffee.

"Now. Now miss Viktor that cannot be done." He said in an all knowing manner as I began to frown

"Why not?" I asked with a blush on my cheeks. Why did he keep calling me miss.

"Because you were so popular with viewers on the asylum episode they want you in every episode. It's part of your contract ma'am". He said as he sat back in the chair.

"This network sure is a lot of problems for me." I was still frowning but zak was just watching me. He had a look on his face I couldn't place. He got up suddenly saying "well if you'd like you can go home for the day." He said as he strolled over to the doorway again. Once he got to the doorway he stopped and turned to me. I looked back up at him blushing hard now as he looked at me. Then he said " your name would sound better with a Mrs. " he smiled and walked out down the hall.

It felt so hot in my office. My heart was skipping beats as I just took in what he said but what did it mean though.

I found myself mopping around my house an hour later because I had to go to Kentucky and I had to tell Chanel she can't come. It was for her safety but I would miss her terribly. I called Natalie and told her the news. She was perfectly fine with getting to watch Chanel those two days. Chanel listened to Natalie like a little angel. I decided to prep myself for this lockdown I sat down in my comfortable clothes, they happened to be revealing but I was home alone. I made up my mind I was going to watch the 2 episodes that the guys already filmed at bobby mackeys. I was watching the first episode in horror as I saw all the guys get messed with by the spirits and zak was hurt by a demon near a well. This place was awful. I was still mesmerized in shock when I heard the doorbell ring. I got up, fixing my shorts and tank top. I opened the front door to see zak standing there wearing a very predictable black tshirt

"You don't ever get hot wearing all that black" I asked him in a playful manner as i pulled him inside.

He laughed as he turned to look at me and replied with a "no."

Then it suddenly dawned on me I didn't know why zak was here. I didn't really care why he was here but zak seemed to forget too once he saw what I had been watching on the tv in the darkened living room.

I broke the silence by saying "I wanted to be prepared for the lockdown."

"Right" he replied in a distracted manner as he then turned his attention back to me.

"Anyway I wanted to come ask you on a date, a more traditional one."

"Traditional. What was wrong with the first date" I asked him curiously as I had slightly raise my eyebrow.

He laughed briefly "Nothing, I just thought we could have more than one date" he said a little sarcastically.

I smiled at this as the blush followed close behind.

"I was thinking the day after we got back from Kentucky. What do you think." He said as he looked back at me.

"That's sounds great." I said returning the smile he had

"Once we film this episode we will be done with the season and we'll have 3 weeks off before we start the next season." He said as we made our way to the front door.

Zaks perspective.

I had dropped by to see Madeline. I had asked her on a second date, and she thankfully said yes. I was nervous to ask her on a more traditional date, the ole dinner and a movie, but I was still going to throw in a special surprise for her.

The nerves faded once I saw her blush. She was beautiful, even in shorts and a tank top. Her hair was pulled up into a bun and I noticed she had taken her makeup off. Her tanned skin from the Nevada sun shined even in the darkened living room. She followed me to the door as I said "Once we film this episode we will be done with the season and we'll have 3 weeks off before we start the next season."

I was about to leave but I kept thinking how badly I wanted to kiss her. I turned around to act upon these thoughts but I already felt the pressure of her lips against mine. She was kissing me. I shook the shock as I began to return her kiss. Her arms wrapped around my neck as my hands slid down her sides. She's never acted like this before. As I lost myself in this kiss I soon realized she had me backed up against the door. This kiss was hungry and something urgent about it. I tried my hardest to restrain myself, but this kiss was pushing me right to the edge.

I felt flustered from the kiss as I spun her to where I now was the one pressing her against the door. I didn't bother to be gentle about this motion. I pulled away from her kiss as I looked at her breathless. My heart was skipping beats and she said "I.. I'm sorry.. I don't know what came over me." She said shyly as she looked down towards the ground. She was blushing in an uncontrollable manner now.

I laughed gently as I hugged her briefly kissing her forehead. "I kissed you back didn't i?" I said to her as she looked back up smiling. The blush had faded from her cheeks but was still slightly there. I then said bye to madeline, and walked out the front door as I walked to my car I had a spring in my step now heading back to work.
