It was the day we flew out to Las Vegas to see the Museum. I was really nervous because only Aaron knew about Zak being the 'match' and if he told Zak then I'm not sure what will happen. We got on the plane Max and Brady got on first then mom and I. Mom and I sat in a different spot away from Max and Brady, but they were fine with it they were flirting and talking to each other. "Sweetie are you sure you're going to be okay with the fact that he brought his match and you still haven't met yours?"
"Yeah mom I'm fine and who said I haven't met my match and just decided it's best I don't tell him or anyone else?"
"So if you have met him then who is it?" She laughed a little.
"Zak," I whispered and she went quiet.
"How do you know it's him?"
"Because when we were at the house the other girls asked to see his match mark and he showed up. It was the same as mine and later that night Aaron saw it but said he wouldn't tell him until I'm ready. You have to stay quiet I don't want Max and them to know not until I'm ready. Okay mom promise me."
"Okay I promise I'll drop it here, but what happened if he's at the museum."
"Then I deal with that later but mom my mark will be covered completely and if not I don't think he'll remember me."
"Yeah and if he does."
"Then I say hi and we walk away."
"Okay." The plane ride was quiet with the every now and then the whispers about what else to do when we're in Vegas.
"Mom, we're landing." I shock my mother the get her up as we landed.
"Oh okay." She started shifting in her seat and waking up. When we landed we all met up and got to our hotel from there we went to a pizza place for food and all four of us bonded and got to each other better.
"Hey Y/n what do you dream your match will be like?" Brady asked causing me to stop and think.
"Well, I'm not really sure. Are you talking like personality-wise or look wise."
"Well, both but personality-wise first."
"Well, I someone sweet and funny but with a serious side when needed."
"Okay and now look wise?"
"I'd settle for anything really looks don't matter to me it's more about the personality."
"Do you think you'll really meet him here because like the people here are so old?" She makes a discussed face and then laughed, "but if you like the idea of an older guy go for it, honey." She was laughing so hard she started crying.
"Yeah, I'm not sure I mean there's gonna be younger guys around also." I was looking around nervous when max looked at, I swear he knows how to read me, way too well.
"Y/n have you already met him." I ended up spitting out the water I was drinking and some came out my nose.
"No, what would make you ask that."
"The way you're acting with that question."
"Well, it was a little taken aback."
"Yeah and let me guess it's one of the group?" I looked at my plate and took a bite of food. "That's a yes."
"No it's not and I haven't met him that I know of because you know where my mark is and every guy I've talked to has it covered."
"Okay, my guess is it's Billy."
"Wrong his is on his arm and you could see it in all the episodes the same as Jays but it's different remember."
"Okay, then Aaron."
"Nope he's met his I'm pretty sure and same as Zak." I mean it's not a lie Zak's met me he just doesn't know that I'm his match.
"Then maybe one of the camera people."
"I don't think so if I met them it'll be some random person."
"Okay."
"Wait you guys dated a couple of years right?"
"Yeah." We answered in unison. "jinx, double jinx, triple jinx."
"Okay, we get it." Mom said laughing
"So are you excited to be graduating soon?"
"Oh um yeah, I guess. It's just I'm not sure I'm ready to left it behind."
"Yeah I get that but you'll always have your friends." I said smiling
*Zak's POV*
It was just a normal day hanging out with Aaron and the guys. When we decided to go get some food. Something stopped me at the pizza place we were passing when I looked in I saw a girl she looked familiar. "Hey, Aaron isn't that the girl from a while ago?"
"Who..... oh shit." He looked at me for a little "Yeah that's her why do you ask?"
"Just wondering." She ended up looking up and we make eye contact and she quickly looked away. She then whispered something to I'm assuming her mother. Then they both looked at me and that got the other people she was with looking at me and one of them screamed and ran out and to me almost tackling me. Great a fan. "Hi I'm Zak Bagans but I'm betting you already know that."
"Yes oh my, you're even more beautiful in person." They paid and soon joined us outside.
"Okay Brady time to get off. Let him go." The girl said pulling her off me. The Brady chicks grip ended up ripping the back of my shirt on the shoulder. "Sorry about that I didn't know she was a fan. You probably don't remember me but I'm..."
"The girl that wouldn't let us see your match mark."
"Yep, that's me." She looked at Aaron and shared some weird look with him when the guy she was with noticed my ripped shirt.
"Oh, shit dude I'm sorry about the shirt. Hold up. That mark looks familiar."
"Max does it I wouldn't have guessed here's a 20$ sorry about the shirt we'll be going now." She smiled and pulled them along.
When they were gone I looked at Aaron "so what was that look you and her shared about."
"I can say but you'll wonder stand when you understand." And we continued walking.
*Y/n's POV*
"So he's has met his match hasn't he." Max said looking at me with a smile.
"I never lied just didn't say all the truth now drop it."
"Wait what's Max talking about." Without wanting to explain it I showed her my shoulder. "Wait your Zak's match."
"Yes now everyone drop it."
"Fine" Max answered and then we walked back to the hotel. I hate how he knows me so well and I really don't like how he saw Zak's mark.
After a while, we decided to get ready and head out to the museum. "So Y/n are you gonna tell him?"
"Not yet he's in a relationship and he's happy so I'll tell him when the time is right." Just as we got to the museum I realized I hadn't covered up my mark. "Hey, Max can I barrow your flannel?"
"No why do you need it it's like 90 degrees here."
"Because I just need it please."
"Is it the fact that you don't have your mark covered." Brady said almost laughing, "I don't even think he's here because he was out eating with Aaron remember."
"True, but I just need to be sure."
"Be sure of what?" Someone said behind me causing me to jump.
"Be sure that I don't get cold," I said turning around.
"Are you sure it's not to hide the evidence from Zak."
"Yes, Aaron that also."
"Hide what evidence from me?"
"Oh um nothing. Max please just this once please."
"Not gonna happen he's gonna find out sooner or later."
"Aaron any chance you can help me out?" I asked looking at Aaron with puppy dog eyes.
"No and don't give me that look I'm with him, he'll find out sooner or later."
"Please."
"I'll find out what."
"That sh."
"Nothing guys it's my choice when and it's not yours to tell. No please anyone."
"What do you need?" Zak asked looking at me confused.
"A jacket or something to cover my back because I get cold easily." I did a nervous lip bite and hoped he didn't see it.
"That's gotta be a lie or you wouldn't bite your lip like I do when I lie. But come on I have one in my office." He started walking away and I followed
"So you bite your lip when you lie?"
"Yeah, and when I'm nervous it's a habit. So are you gonna tell me what all that was about back there?"
"Not yet it's one of those things that I need to know you better for."
"Yet Aaron knows and you know is the same amount of time."
"That's because I made the mistake of slipping up."
"I see and how well would you need to know me before you slip up again?"
"I'm not sure not sooner or later."
"Here you go."
"Thanks, I'll give it back went we leave the museum," I said putting the jacket on and then smiling at him.
"Don't worry about it you can keep it I can always get another one."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. So it's a like ten minutes back to your group you wanna get to know each other better?"
"Sure."
"Okay, what's your favorite movie or tv show?"
"Well, Ghost Adventures probably."
"Okay, how'd you find us?"
"My friend Max showed it to me when we dated a while back tell he found his match."
"Okay any questions for me?"
"Just one why'd you offer me the jacket when Aaron and my friend didn't want me to have one?"
"Because I could tell you were uncomfortable, and I also wanted to get out of the girl's look that was making me nervous."
"Who Brady?"
"Yeah her."
"Oh she's dating Max I think you're safe."
"Yeah so how old are you?"
"I'm 18 I'll be 19 soon."
"O...." Zak was cut off with someone yelling.
"OH MY GOD, IT'S ZAK BAGANS GUY."
"Welp the fangirls found you." I started laughing.
"I'll give you free tickets to act like my girlfriend."
"How many free tickets."
"Four and I'll get you a shirt or something from the gift shop."
"Fine but what do I have to do exactly?"
"Just go with me." He put his arm around me and my heart skipped a beat and he pulled me closer.
They approached and I got the stink eye from one or more of them. "Who's this?"
"My girlfriend."
"Since when I thought that our marks might match. Does hers match yours."
"Maybe but why do you need to know that."
"Because he's mine unless you can prove your marks match."
"Babe I have to get back to my friends but I'll see you later right?" I said kissing his cheek. What I have to make it seem like we are actually dating right.
"Of course you will I have to get my jacket back some time don't I." With that, I walked away laughing.
It wasn't that far from my group when I got there Max looked at me weird "we all saw that Y/n."
"Saw what?"
"The kiss on the cheek" Aaron said trying to hold back laughter.
"It was only acting."
"To get rid of the girls that are hanging on him now?" I looked back and it hurt to see them all over him and suddenly my jealous kicked in.
"It's fine we aren't really dating." I whispered
"Oh, but you want to and you know that." Aaron and Max said in unison.
"Nope, I'm fine being single. Now can we get to the tour."
"Yeah sure." Everyone said and we headed in and right as we left Aaron his match showed up and they walked in right behind me. After the tour was done we walked outside and were on our way to the car when I felt an arm around me causing me to jump.
"Oh hey, Jack when did you get here?"
"I've been here the whole time." Jack used to go to our school and we were good friends but his dad got a job offer from somewhere and the whole family moved. "Hey Y/n can I ask you something?"
"Sure what you need."
"Are you single or looking for someone?"
"Yes, I'm single but not really looking for anyone why?"
"Because I've liked you for a while and was wondering if maybe while you're here in Vegas I can show you around and maybe see where it goes from there?"
"I'm sorry to interrupt but we already have this weekend planned out," Max answered before I could answer. Max and Jack never got alone I mean with good reason because Jack used to bully Max.
"Um, actually I have a couple of hours free right now if it's okay with my mom."
"You're 18 aren't you? So why does your mom have to approve."
"I'm because I'm here because she paid for me to come so it's up to her."
"Yeah, sure honey you can go."
"Okay, I guess let's go."
"I just need you to lose the jacket and you can have mine."
"Um, why do I need to lose the jacket."
"Because it's not mine and I don't need you thinking about another guy."
"Oh shit, I'll be right back guys." I ran to the door as Zak was walking away, "Zak wait."
"Oh hey how can I help you? Oh and here's your thing for the gift shop."
"Oh, thanks but I was gonna return your jacket but thanks for letting me borrow it. Hey is something wrong?"
"No everything's fine," he said biting his lip, "and I thought I told you that you could keep the jacket."
"Zak tells me the truth please what's wrong?"
"Nothing but it was nice running into you again see you around." And with that, he left.
I walked back outside holding the shot glass. Great I did something to piss off Zak.
"Are you ready?"
"Oh yeah, just a second. Mom can I talk to you really quickly."
"Yeah honey what's wrong?" She asked as we walked away.
"Do you think I should tell him? Or should I just go with Jack and try to forget about Zak?"
"I think you should do what your heart is telling you because no matter what you'll end up with Zak, he's your match but do you want to waste time oh Jack who's an asshole or on Zak who's never been an ass to you?"
"That's why I'm asking you because I think I pissed off Zak or did something to hurt him."
"Honey it's your choice but I'd rather you go see Vegas with Zak and not Jack because I've never trusted Jack."
"Yeah." I put my hand in the jacket pocket for the first time today and felt a paper. I pulled it out and saw a number on it. I found myself smiling not sure who's it was but I was still smiling. "I think I've made my decision."
"That's good honey who is it?"
