skip to the day before they leave for the trip:
"hey Zach, i have a problem." i finally got to stay at my house since my parents were taken away again (thank god) and Traci and Kerry were back. it felt really nice to sleep in my own bed again. Zach was laying on my bed while i was trying to pack for his surprise trip. he looks up from his phone and smiles.
"what baby?" i throw myself onto the bed with a puff.
"how am i supposed to pack if i don't even know what i'm packing for?" he plays with my hard and giggles. "it's not funny! can you please give me a hint."
"fine, it's going to be hot and there is going to be water. that's it."
"is it an island?"
"i don't know."
"Zach, this is killing me!! you know i'm going to find out when we get to the airport tomorrow so why don't you just tell me now?"
"because i want to surprise you tomorrow." i sit up and grab a pillow. "don't throw that at me." of course i didn't listen and i throw it at him. "you're going to regret that!" i giggle as he picks me up and starts tickling me. i'm super ticklish and i start screaming from laughing so hard. jack runs upstairs and throws my door open.
"what the hell is going on in here?" he smirks when we sees Zach on top of me. it probably appeared that other things were going on but that definitely is not the case.
"jack, why are you smirking?" he shrugs.
"i don't knowww."
"ugh, i hate you, bye." i throw a pillow at him.
"no, you love me."
"no i don't." he crosses his arms.
"i'm not leaving until you admit it!" i groan.
"fine i love you, Jack Avery. Now leave !!" he laughs and closes my door as we walks away.
"now, i need to get back to packing!" i get back up and grab some bikinis from my closet.
"ashley."
"yes Zachary?"
"you can't wear bikinis that are too sexy or all the guys will want you."
"yea right, i'm not even that pretty. i think i'll be fine, babe." he sits up with his eyes wide and stares at me.
"what?"
"not that pretty? what are you talking about? you're the most beautiful girl ever." i blush so hard my cheeks feel 100°.
"Zachary Dean Herron, i love you." i give him a big ole hug and smile. "you're the sweetest. and don't worry, i won't wear anything too crazy."
"good." he smiles and goes back to whatever game he was playing on his phone. just as i was going to pick out the shoes i want to pack i get a call from Breckin.
Breckin: "hey ash, i'm at the mall right now buying some stuff for the trip. do you need anything?"
Ashley: "um, not that i know of but if you want you could surprise me with something." we both laugh.
Breckin: "maybe i will. i'll text you when i'm almost home. do you want me to bring some food home too?"
Ashley: "yes!! that would be so awesome."
Breckin; "is pizza fine?"
Ashley: "of course, just make sure you get my regular order!"
Breckin: "how could i forget? extra cheese, extra ham, pineapple, and pepperonis."
Ashley: "thanks love, you're the best!"
Breckin: "see ya soon!"
i hang up and throw my phone on the bed.
"who were you calling love?"
"it was Breckin, don't worry Zachary, i would never cheat on you." i cup his cheeks with my hands and give him a gently kiss on the lips. he smiles.
"i know you wouldn't, i was just wondering." i smile.
"i'm excited."
"for what?"
"the trip, silly."
"oh, yea."
"you're a goofball." we both laugh and i snuggle up beside him. we watch youtube together for like 30 minutes then i get a text from Breckin saying that she's here and she's bringing the pizza up to my room.
"hey ash. oh hey Zach."
"hey Breck. did you bring us food?"
"yeppers. you're welcome." the three of us devour the pizza and hang out. "is it okay if i invite Daniel over?"
"yea, you should invite all the guys and we can hang out all night."
"yea we could have a movie night together!" Zach says as he finishes his last piece of pizza.
"yea! that would be a lot of fun!" Breckin calls the guys and within 15 minutes the arrive.
"what movie are we watching?" corbyn asks as he throws bags of candy at us.
"Harry Potter!!" Jonah and I say at the same time. i give him a fist bump and we giggle. Jonah and I are both big Harry Potter nerds.
"oh gosh, we have two harry potter dorks in the house." jack shakes his head.
"shut up jack, you know you love it!" after 5 minutes of convincing we finally get the watch Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. i snuggle up beside Zach and we all enjoy a great night of giggling and eating lots of junk food. i fall asleep in his arms as he kisses my head gently. i cant wait for tomorrow.
