It all started when Zac and Vanessa met on the set of High School Musical (do not own). The couple had started dating in the middle of shooting the first installment of the trilogy. Up to this point, everyone thought their lives were perfect. The couple had each other, their family, and their friends. That was all about to change. Zac Efron was in the middle of having press conferences in New York for a new movie that he had just signed for. He had been gone for a week and would be coming back to Los Angeles the week after. Zac missed Vanessa terribly and wished that she could have come to his press conferences with him. Vanessa had told him that she didn't want to get in the way, so Zac went by himself. Vanessa was in Los Angeles and living in a house that she shared with Zac. She hated when Zac had to leave for long periods of time. But, she knew that it was his job. Vanessa dialed Zac's number, anxious to hear her boyfriend's voice, and waited for him to answer the phone.

"Hey sweetheart" Zac answered.

"Hey, how's it going?" Vanessa asked.

"Everything's really crazy right now. I miss you babe" Zac said.

"I miss you too, honey. But in a week, you will be coming home. I can't wait to see you" Vanessa said.

Zac smiled to himself. He couldn't wait to go home and be with his girlfriend.

"I know, I can't wait to see you either. How's LA?" Zac asked.

"It's fine. I went to the studio today" Vanessa said.

"How did it go?" Zac asked.

Vanessa was working on her third album. Zac was so happy when she told him. She had been co writing songs and was very involved in the production of the album.

"It was fine, just really long hours" Vanessa said.

"Don't work yourself too hard, Van" Zac said.

"I know, I just want everything to be perfect. You know me" Vanessa said.

"Yeah, but listen. I have to go but I will call you later okay?" Zac said.

"Okay, I love you Zac" Vanessa said.

"I love you too Van" Zac said.

The couple hung up the phone. The couple couldn't wait to see each other in a week. A week later, Zac was going to the airport to fly back to LA. He went through security quickly and got onto the plane. A few hours later, the plane landed and Zac got off. He collected his suitcase and walked out of the airport and was met by paparazzi. Zac silently cursed himself.

"Zac! How far along is Vanessa? When is the baby due?" the paparazzi yelled.

"She's not pregnant" Zac said.

"Are you sure? Maybe you should take a look at this" a photographer said.

The photographer handed Zac a magazine that said "Zanessa is having a baby". Zac kept walking to the car that was going to bring him home. Security followed Zac and made sure he got into his car safely. Zac sat in the back seat and looked at the magazine that the paparazzi had given him. He read the article and thought it was weird because the tabloids had never mentioned that Vanessa was pregnant before. Zac was pulled out of his thoughts when the driver stopped the car in front of Zac and Vanessa's home. Zac got out of the car with his suitcase and thanked the driver. He walked to the front door and unlocked it and walked in. Zac put his bags down and looked around for his girlfriend.

"Van? I'm home" Zac said.

Zac walked upstairs and went into the master bedroom and saw Vanessa in bed.

"Hey, how was your flight?" Vanessa asked.

Zac kissed Vanessa's lips softly. Vanessa pulled back and smiled.

"It was alright. I got off the plane and a photographer handed me this" Zac said as he gave Vanessa the magazine.

Vanessa looked at the magazine and sighed. She looked up at Zac.

"Babe, the magazine was true" Vanessa said as she looked down at her hands.

Zac looked at Vanessa.

"You're pregnant?" Zac asked softly.

Vanessa nodded. Zac smiled and kissed Vanessa's lips again.

"Why didn't you tell me, baby?" Zac asked.

"I was going to tell you when you got home, but I went out and the paparazzi figured it out and they wrote about it. I didn't want you to find out like this" Vanessa said as she wiped a tear away from her eye.

Zac wrapped his arms around Vanessa.

"Hey, it's okay Van. At least you told me now, right? When did you find out?" Zac asked.

"I found out right after you left" Vanessa said as she leaned her head against Zac's chest.

"Do you know how far along you are?" Zac asked.

"Eight weeks" Vanessa said.

Zac smiled.

"I love you Van" Zac said.

"I love you too" Vanessa said as she snuggled into her boyfriend's chest.

"I am going to take some time off of work" Zac said.

Vanessa looked up at Zac and sat up.

"Zac, you need to finish this movie. You can't just take time off just because I found out I am pregnant" Vanessa said.

"Van, I don't want to be going back and forth from here to New York while you are here by yourself. I want to be here through everything. I want to experience this pregnancy with you" Zac said as he entwined their fingers together.

"But, you would drop your movie then" Vanessa said.

"I know, but you are more important than my movie. Yes, it's my job, but being away from you for long periods of time is not something I want us to deal with while you are pregnant" Zac said.

Vanessa sighed and nodded.

"You okay?" Zac asked.

"I'm sorry" Vanessa whispered.

Zac looked at Vanessa confused.

"Honey, what are you sorry for? You didn't do anything" Zac said.

"If I hadn't gotten pregnant, you would be working and doing what you love to do. Now, you feel obligated to stay here because I am pregnant" Vanessa said.

Zac sighed and kissed Vanessa's lips.

"Vanessa, I don't feel obligated to stay here. I want to be here with you. I love you so much and I don't want you to go through this alone" Zac said.

"Okay" Vanessa said.

"Alright, so then it's settled. I am going to break my contract and stay here with you" Zac said.

Vanessa snuggled into Zac's chest.

"So you are happy about the baby?" Vanessa asked.

"I'm so happy baby, honestly" Zac said.

"I'm scared" Vanessa said as she looked at Zac.

"Why are you scared Van?" Zac asked.

"I don't know. I mean aren't you? This is our first child. I don't know how to be a mother and I don't know what to expect in the next couple of months" Vanessa said as she leaned against Zac's shoulder.

"Sweetheart, you are going to be an amazing mother. The next few months will be interesting, but just remember I am right next to you and I am going to go through this with you" Zac said.

Vanessa looked at Zac and leaned over and kissed his cheek.

"I love you" Vanessa said softly.

Zac smiled.

"I love you too honey. Get some sleep, okay? The baby needs it" Zac said as he kissed her lips.

Vanessa nodded and got under the covers. Zac got into bed and Vanessa snuggled into his side. The next morning, Vanessa woke up to feeling nauseaous. She bolted to the bathroom with Zac right behind her. Vanessa leaned over the toilet and released the remains of her stomach. Zac held her hair and rubbed her back.

"It's okay babe. You are okay" Zac said soothingly.

Once Vanessa had finished, Zac helped Vanessa get up. Vanessa walked to the sink and brushed her teeth and washed her face. She then went over to her boyfriend and wrapped her arms around him.

"You okay?" Zac asked.

Vanessa nodded slightly.

"Do you want me to make you some tea? It may help your stomach" Zac suggested.

"Okay" Vanessa said softly.

"Alright" Zac said as he entwined their fingers together.

The couple walked downstairs and went into the kitchen. Zac picked Vanessa up and set her on the counter. He made Vanessa's tea and handed her a cup. Vanessa took a sip and smiled.

"Thank you" Vanessa said.

"You are welcome. When are we going to tell our parents?" Zac asked.

"I want to tell them as soon as possible" Vanessa said.

"Do you want to go to your parents house first and then drive up to San Luis?" Zac asked.

"Okay" Vanessa said as she wrapped her arms around Zac's neck.

Zac leaned in and kissed Vanessa's lips.

"Love you" Zac said.

"Love you too" Vanessa said.

Zac helped Vanessa get off the counter. The couple then left the house and drove to the Hudgens' home. Zac and Vanessa got out of the car and entwined their fingers together. Vanessa rang the doorbell and Gina, Vanessa's mother opened the door.

"Vanessa, Zac! What a surprise! Come on in" Gina said.

Vanessa and Zac hugged and kissed Gina and walked into the house.

"What's going on?" Gina asked.

"We have something to tell you mom, but can you go get dad and Stella?" Vanessa asked.

"Sure" Gina said.

Gina left the room and came back with Greg Hudgens, Vanessa's father and Stella. They all sat down in the living room. Zac and Vanessa entwined their fingers together.

"Okay, we have an announcement to make. Babe, do you want to tell them?" Vanessa asked.

"Sure. Vanessa's pregnant" Zac said.

Everyone's mouth dropped. Silence filled the room and Vanessa looked at Zac.

"I'm sorry. I have to leave" Vanessa said as she ran out of the house.

The Hudgens family and Zac heard the door slam. Zac sighed.

"Zac, we are just in shock. You both are so young" Gina said.

"I know Gina. We are young and we are going to make this work" Zac said.

"What about filming? How are you going to juggle a baby and a movie?" Greg asked.

"I quit my movie yesterday. I want to be with Van as much as possible. I don't want to miss a thing" Zac said.

Gina smiled and looked at Greg.

"I'm going to see if Van is okay and I will be back" Zac said.

"Alright, honey" Gina said.

Zac walked out of the front door and walked to the car. He opened the passenger seat and looked at Vanessa.

"Sweetheart, look at me" Zac said.

Vanessa looked at her boyfriend with tears running down her face.

"Van, your parents are just trying to understand what's going on. They accept it" Zac said.

"Oh yeah, they looked like they accepted it completely" Vanessa said sarcastically.

"Come on, let's go inside. Let your parents explain to you how they feel about it" Zac said.

Vanessa got out of the car and walked with Zac back into the house. Gina smiled at Vanessa.

"Honey, we are happy. It just was a shock to us" Gina said.

"You both are very young, Van. We just didn't know what to think at first, but once the news settled in, we are happy and we support you" Greg said.

Vanessa nodded. Zac rubbed Vanessa's back soothingly. An hour later, Zac and Vanessa left the Hudgens' home and started driving to San Luis Obispo to tell Zac's parents the news. Zac looked at Vanessa, who was leaning her head against the window.

"What's wrong, sweetie?" Zac asked.

"Just thinking about my parents reaction" Vanessa said.

"Vanessa, it was just shocking. I mean, both of us were shocked too" Zac said.

"Yeah, but not like that. I would expect it from us because we are going to be parents but my parents reaction just hurt" Vanessa said.

"I know and I am sorry it hurt you" Zac said as he put his hand on Vanessa's.

Zac and Vanessa arrived at Zac's parents house. The couple told them that they were expecting and they were ecstatic. Zac and Vanessa couldn't believe that they were going to have a baby in seven months.
