Sin City Adventures (A Zak Bagans FanFic)

Chapter 10: The Fun Before the Lockdown

By the time the movie was over it was getting into late afternoon and Kelsey would be off work soon. I found myself sitting sideways on the couch with my legs draped over Zak's lap. He would gently brush over my legs with his finger tips and even through my jeans would give me chills. I'm not even sure he realized he was doing so. Buzz. I reach for my phone, sitting on the coffee table, and see a message from Kelsey.

'Hey, girl. I got off work early. I'm home. Where are you?'

'Hey, Kels. I'm at Zak's. We just finished a movie. I'm not sure what we're doing now haha.'

"What's that smirk?" Zak wonders as he watches my thumbs go to work on my phone screen.

"Kelsey is just wondering what's up. She's off work early."

"Oh, well, tell her to meet us at GA headquarters."

"What are we doing there?"

"Since you're not working anymore at the hospital I figured you could go see your new official office. We have a computer set up in there so you can do your research."

"Awesome! Yes, I'd love to see it." I bring my attention back to my phone and tell Kelsey to meet us there.

'Okay, perfect! See you soon!'

"You ready now?" I confirm with Zak.

"Yup. Let's go."

We ride together in Zak's car to headquarters and meet up with Kelsey and the rest of the crew. My new office is amazing! It's on the second floor right in between Zak's and Aaron's offices. It's a lot more roomy than I thought and in one corner sits a huge desk with an iMac computer. That's about all that was in it. "I know it doesn't look like much, but I left it bare for you to decorate it how you want," Zak states.

"It's perfect!" I almost jump and down from excitement but I keep my cool as much as I can. "So, should we get to work?" I start to sit in the rolling chair at my new desk when Zak pulls my arm.

"Woah, there. There will be plenty of time for that, but right now we're going out to eat!"

"Hell, yeah! I'm hungry," Jay exclaims.

"So you really like the office?" Billy chimes in. I nod vigorously with a wide smile. The crew and Kelsey all laugh. Zak pulls two keys out of his pocket and hands them to me.

"This one is for the front door and this one is your office key."

"Thank you," I smile and take the keys, hooking them on my keychain.

"Let's go eat!" Aaron claps his hands together and leads us out the door.

It was getting close to 6:30pm and I realized how hungry I was getting myself. We decided to go to this nice, but casual Italian restaurant called La Paz. Zak and I sat slide into one side of the booth first across from Kelsey and Aaron, and Billy and Jay sit on the ends. After a few minutes of mingling, talking about the show and some other random things, we order our drinks and our food. I keep my order simple and get ravioli. I get full quickly and just sit there sipping my wine. "You okay?" Zak leans his lips down to my ear, making my jump. "What's wrong?"

"Sorry. I must've been zoned out. I'm okay, just full."

"Damn, already?" Aaron laughs, looking at my nearly full plate of food.

"Pasta is filling!" I defend myself.

"It'll be good leftovers," Kelsey defends as well.

"See?" I present my hand towards Kelsey. "Thank you. That it will." The crew laughs and gets back to their conversation, me not paying attention. Suddenly, I get the urge to pee, but of course I would be in the back of the booth. I felt bad making Zak and Billy have to get up, but when a girls gotta go she gotta go! "Can I get out, please?" I ask quietly to Zak. He was too lost into their conversation to hear me or pay attention. I lightly slap his leg with my hand and ask again.
