Chapter thirteen

A forgotten fortune

A week later Vanessa was coming home from another photo shoot. Usually the individual photo shoots were a lot of fun but this one wasn't, she had too much on her mind.

She set her purse on her table and started looking through her messy purse for her cell phone. When she picked up her phone dangling from the antenna was her necklace that Zac had given her. She placed the heart shaped necklace in her hand and she traced it with her finger. One tear turned in to hundreds as she had flash backs to the fight she had with Zac. She quickly dialed Ashley's number and lay on her black leather couch.

"Hello?" Asked Ashley

"Ashley, I can't take it anymore." Said Vanessa threw her sobs

"What are you talking about?" Asked Ashley

"I hate being alone. I feel so lost without Zac. I don't smile anymore and if I do I'm faking it. Corbin's cookies aren't helping and the sweater that Zac gave me doesn't smell like him anymore. It smells like my pathetic, alone self." Said Vanessa as she continued crying harder. "I didn't even tell him how much I loved him." Said Vanessa as she caught her breath.

"Why don't you?" Asked Ashley

"I can't." Said Vanessa

"I think you just did." Said Monique

"That was deep V." Said Corbin

"Wow." Said Lucas

"Oh my god!" She said as she stood up and walked in the middle of the room. "Please tell me this is a five way call!"

The front door swung open and there stood Zac out of breath with his cell phone in his hand.

"Zac?" Vanessa said as she hung up her phone. Zac did the same.

"They hung up!" Yelled Ashley to the others.

Vanessa quickly wiped her tears away. Zac stood by Vanessa.

"What are you doing here?" Asked Vanessa

"I'm here to apologize." Said Zac

"Well you don't have to. I get it…" Said Vanessa "You've changed. The old Zac wouldn't have forgotten… the old Zac wouldn't have forgotten me."

"I'm sorry I missed the dates, I had a lot of work. I may have forgotten the dates and calling you back, but I could never forget you, Vanessa." Said Zac full heartedly

"Maybe it's just better this way. It's fine." Vanessa lied

"Is that why you're wearing my sweater?" Asked Zac with a smile.

Vanessa laughed softly.

"So it's over?" Asked Zac taking a step closer to her.

"Yeah." She said taking a small step closer to him

"Are you sure?" Asked Zac taking another step toward her. They were so close that they were touching.

"No." Said Vanessa quietly

"Good." He said as he leaned forward to kiss Vanessa.

RING! RING!

"Hello?" Zac and Vanessa said into their phones at the same time.

"So?" The four of them asked

"Bye guys." They said together as they hung up.

Vanessa smiled at Zac when she saw his sparkling eyes.

"Oh so you're smiling now? Or was that just fake?" Teased Zac

"Very funny." She said before they kissed passionately.

"I guess you have some phone calls to make." Said Zac with Vanessa still in his arms.

Hmm… They can wait." Said Vanessa as she kissed him again.

Much love,
