Life Moves On • Zach Herron

bonus chapter 3: our final days

7 months later

"babyyy" zach says coming and hugging me from behind "yeah?" i answer him, loving this moment because hugs from behind are definitely the best

"what are you doing on saturday?" he asks and i think "i don't think i'm doing anything, why?"

"do you wanna come on a date with me?" i immediately smile and nod, turning to face him "i'd love to come on a date with you" i kiss his lips and then he smiles against my lips

"i love you" he says, picking me up "i love you too zachy" i wrap my legs around his waist and put my head on his shoulder

we stay like this for a while and zach starts walking around in circles, humming quietly "just think of this as our final days" i look up at him and frown in confusion

"what do you mean?"

"you'll see" he smiles

~~~

i apply a final layer of lipstick and then stand up to look at myself once more before leaving the room to walk downstairs

zach was sat on the sofa waiting for me, wearing a dress shirt and black jeans and his hair was ever so slightly gelled, i smiled at the sight of him

"heyy" i say as i reach the sofa "oh hey you look gorgeous!" zach tells me, i notice he seems a little agitated but i choose to dismiss it

"thank you and you look as hot as ever" i giggled and he smiles "let's get going he says taking my hand and leading me to his car

"where are we going?" i ask as he starts the car and pulls out of the driveway "first we are going to a restaurant that's about a 10 minute drive away and then after that is a complete surprise" he looks to his side and pretends to zip his mouth closed, i laugh a little "i'm excited"

as we arrive at the restaurant i see that it looks very posh

zach parks and then we walk inside, i admire the entrance and barely even notice zach stops until i feel his hand gently pulling mine back

"do you have a table reservation?" a waiter dressed in a suit and bow tie asks "yes erm it's under the name zach herron"

the waiter nods "follow me i'll show you to your table and get you guys some menus"

he takes us to a table that is set for two with a light above the table that is hanging from the ceiling; it's perfect

we order our food and the waiter leaves

"this place is amazing zach!" i tell him and he smiles "i knew you'd love it"

"yeah i do, i always love our dates, i didn't think it would be possible but this is as good as the date we had at the lake"

"yeah that was a good one, i was so nervous to walk down that path when you were blindfolded because if you tripped or even hurt yourself i wouldn't be able to forgive myself" i smile

"but i didn't, you got me there safely and it was an amazing date"
