THE START OF SOSMETHING NEW
It was the 2 year High School Musical Cast reunion, Zac, Vanessa, Ashley, Lucas, Corbin and Monique had returned to Utah for a 4 day weekend to revisit the places that made High School Musical famous. They all had their own hotel room, all on the same floor, except for Zac and Vanessa; they shared a room down the end of the corridor as they had been married for just over a year.
Vanessa had just returned to her and Zac's room after Ashley, Monique and herself went on a 5 hour shopping spree, around Salt Lake City and boy did they spend up big. After dropping her bags and purse on the coffee table, she sat down on the sofa, admiring and thinking about the day she had just had. All of a sudden, she felt herself running towards the bathroom and emptying the satisfying lunch she had enjoyed not long before. No, this has just got to be a bad, very bad coincidence.
She then heard the door open to the hotel room and knew Zac had returned from his basketball game with Corbin and Lucas. She quickly flushed the toilet and rinsed her mouth out, before she felt his warm arms wrap around her waist. She turned around and stared at the man she called her husband.
"Van, are you alright? What's the matter?" Zac questioned her, staring at her pale face and deep chocolate eyes.
"Yeh, I just read a really sad article in a magazine…and well I got a bit over emotional…" Vanessa replied, hoping he would not interrogate her anymore.
"It's alright, ok? I saw all you bags, you spent up big today didn't you? I bet Ashley talked you into buying heaps of stuff." Zac asked, hoping she would get a chuckle out of it.
"Yeh, well I bought something for you too, so don't worry, you haven't missed out." Vanessa replied, letting a smile creep onto her face.
"Good, well how about you go watch some TV while I shower up, cause I don't think you want to kiss a smelly husband, do you?" Zac told Vanessa.
"Ha-ha, yeh, ok!" Vanessa said, giving off a small chuckle, and walking out of the room, closing the door behind her. As soon as she heard the shower turn on, she walked out of the room and over to Ashley's room, needing her 2 best friends more than ever right now.
She knocked on the door gently, and as soon as Ashley opened it she ran into the bathroom, searching through the cabinet and grabbing a certain box she had bought the other day, hiding it in Ash's room so Zac didn't know.
"V, what's wrong?" Ashley and Monique asked at the same time.
When they saw her with the box, they knew she had been sick again and that she had to know before Zac found out the wrong way.
"Zac nearly caught me throwing up again; I need to know….I can't lie to him any more." Vanessa says and with that she shuts the door of the bathroom, in front of Ash's and Monique's faces.
Ten minutes later Ashley hears a loud knock at the door and knows it is Zac coming to look for Vanessa. She opens the door and Zac walks straight past her into the living room.
"I know Van is here! What's up with her she has been funny all weekend, what's wrong tell me, please?" Zac firmly tells Ashley. At that moment Vanessa opened the bathroom door and stared at her husband, having to tell him what she had just confirmed to herself.
"It's okay Ash, Mon, I'll talk to him…" Vanessa says shyly, and Ashley and Monique leave the couple heading over to Monique's room. Once the two girls left, he walked over to his wife, and held her gently by the waist, giving her a gentle kiss on the lips. She motioned him over to the bed where she sat down, looking towards the floor, thinking hard about what she is going to say.
"I need to tell you something…um I don't know who to tell you though…I just found out….um-" Vanessa was cut of with her running to the bathroom to empty her stomach again, and as she knelt down, she pulled a white stick from her back pocket of her jeans, holding it up behind her back.
Zac ran after her, but stopped abruptly when he saw the white stick she was holding in her hand. It didn't register at first, but then connected the dots, feeling a warmth and relief come over his body. He then ran down towards her side, holding her long brown curls back, and taking the stick from her, inspecting it carefully. Vanessa then raised her head and stared deep into his eyes, and saw the warm smile form onto his face.
"Van…..are….are you pregnant?" Zac asked her, staring down at her pale face.
She said nothing, she just smiled.
With that, Vanessa saw Zac, run from the bathroom, out of the hotel room and out to the corridor. Vanessa followed Zac out to the hotel room doorway, where Ashley and Monique, Lucas and Corbin where all out at their doorways watching Zac.
Zac was running up and down the corridor yelling "I'M GOING TO BE A FATHER!! VAN'S PREGNANT! SHE'S HAVING A BABY!"
He continued to run up and down the corridor until he came back to Vanessa, where he picked her up by the waist, and she wrapped her legs around him in reply. He planted a gentle kiss on her lips, which turned into a dance of tongues and continued, with Vanessa wrapping one arm around his neck and the other running through his hair, while Zac pulled her in closer and started drawing invisible circles on her back, catching her as she melted in pleasure. They continued until they heard a familiar cough come from a group of people who had gathered around them.
"Um…excuse me, but can someone explain the situation to me, all I heard was some wild person named Zac, yelling and running up and down the corridor." Corbin said loud enough so that the couple could hear
"Um…well…Vanessa and I, well…has some good news…" Zac said eyeing his friends and then looking in Vanessa's eyes smiling telling her to take over.
"Well…I'm Pregnant! Zac and I are having a baby!" Vanessa says smiling.
"Oh wow, congratulations…both of you!" Lucas exclaimed giving them both a hug
"Yes, were going to be godmothers!" Ashley and Monique chimed together jumping up and down.
"Actually you guys will be Godzilla's, but congratulations!" Corbin said, hugging both of them.
"Hand over the money Corbin." Lucas chimed, looking in Corbin's direction.
"Wait, you guys placed a bet on Vanessa was going to fall pregnant?" Zac said, eyeing his two best mates closely.
"Um, well…not exactly…" Corbin said, looking to the floor.
"It was Corbin's idea – he reckoned you guys wouldn't be having kids for a long time, but I felt there was something in the air, and knew something was up!" Lucas said, holding out his hand, waiting for his cash.
"Fine…here you go!" Corbin said while handing him over a 20 dollar bill.
"Well, how bout we leave you two love birds alone…" Ashley said, as she looked at Zac's right hand high up, under Vanessa's top.
"Yeh come on boys, we'll celebrate in my room" Monique said pointing towards her room, and leading Ashley and the boys down the corridor.
Once the others had entered Monique's hotel room, Zac pulled Vanessa in, kissing her on the neck, holding her as she melted once again. Their heads rested on each others, staring into each others eyes.
"So how you feeling Mrs Efron?" Zac questioned quietly
"Better now your here with me." Vanessa replied, smiling and kissing him powerfully again on the lips. Zac then led his wife and unborn child into their room, for a magical undisturbed evening and the start of something new.
