Hello, so this is something I was writing back in 2013 when I was really into Ghost Adventures. Well I still am. But I'm not like writing fanfiction still... What I have is what I have, I probably won't add anything after chapter 11... I'll think about it, anyway, I hope you like, even though it came from a dumb 16 year old at the time. xD
"You know Zak, I don't mind your job and what you do. Just if you can, keep it away from me." I told him as we were lounging in his dojo on his back patio with Gracie his dog.
"I can't guarantee that and you know it, it's even here in my home." He said.
"I know you can't, I don't even know why I come here anyway if I don't want to be around it.." I said sighing.
"You come here because you love me and Gracie." Zak said kissing me.
"Hmm maybe Gracie more than you." I teased after our kiss.
"Oh yeah sure." He said tightening his hand around mine.
We were lounging on his couch out on the back patio, hand in hand, fingers intertwining, I was lying on my side with my head on his chest listening to his heartbeat, it was a peaceful afternoon, besides the noises of Las Vegas outside.
"I never want to leave when I have too." I said, sighing.
"Then don't." He whispered in my ear.
"I have to though." I said sitting up fixing my hair, then getting up I walked to his restroom, and he followed me.
He stopped me in the hall and pressed my back against the wall kissing me, his one hand on my waist, the other on the wall. I broke off and let my head fall, my forehead touching his lips..
"I love you." I whispered.
"I love you more than you can even imagine, no matter how weird you are." He said laughing under his breath then grabbing me into a hug leading me to the bedroom where my laptop, camera, and bags were.
He sat on the edge of the bed watching me put my camera away in its bag, and shutting down my laptop, I had some pictures I took earlier in the month I wanted to show him.. That's one of the reasons why I was over there. I gave up fiddling with my laptop and went over to him sitting in his lap. Then he did something unexpected he picked me up and flung me on the bed then jumped beside me. We laid there peacefully, not knowing what to do next, Gracie came in and laid at the foot of the bed, Zak had grabbed a fleece blanket and wrapped us in it together, I hate fleece because when it gets warm it puts me to sleep, plus having my man next to me arms around me snuggling, I fell asleep not knowing how tired I really was.
When I woke it was just me and Gracie in his bed, I glanced at his clock on the nightstand it was 6:30 in the afternoon. Then my next sense was that I could smell Chinese making its way down the hall. I sat up just as Zak was bringing food in and turning on his TV.
"Hey sleepy. You hungry?" He teased.
I laughed, my stomach growled, too. "Yeah, maybe just a bit."
He handed me a take out box of Panda Express and sat down besides me. He flipped through channels until he found something we both could watch. Then I settled in next to him silently eating my dinner. He spoiled me so much! He always got me to stay later than I needed too, bought me dinner, etc. but hey he loved me! I didn't mind.
"You can stay the night again if you want. Actually if you wanted to you could move in." He said during a commercial break.
"I'd like too, actually but..." I started.
"I know. I know." He said. " I'll work on it."
"No, that's it and kinda not. I already paid rent this month.." I said laughing at myself, " if I didn't I'd move in tonight."
"That's funny." He said.
"No, it's not! Besides that you'd have to drive me all the way back to Grantsville and back everyday for school; but you can't." I said.
"Then transfer, that way you can stay with me." He said, we were both done with dinner and we were just chilling and watching tv when he said that he rolled over on his side and kissed me. Eventually he flipped off the tv and the lights and we continued to kiss until his phone started to go off.. It was Billy and Aaron; they wanted to come over over and go over some footage, and have Zak do a few voice overs.
"I'm so sorry." Zak said after he stopped kissing me and looked at his phone sitting up.
"You're fine. I need to shower anyway and get ready for bed." I said nonchalantly, " I kinda wish you'd shower with me."
"Oh you're funny and tempting.. But if you come down and socialize a bit, maybe I'll take up your offer after." Zak said locking his phone and getting up to make himself presentable to Billy and Aaron.
I followed suit in the hall restroom and fixed my hair, checked my makeup; fixed what Zak smeared. I met him in his restroom, while he was fixing his hair I wrapped my arms around his waist and was kissing his back, then I let my head rest on his back when I was done. Then he started to turn in my arms to face me and he kissed me. Then the doorbell rang, making us both jump and Zak went off to get it, leaving me.
I turned and was staring at my reflection in the mirror, I must have tuned out because Zak got worried and started to look for me, when he found me I was in the same position: just staring at myself in the mirror...
"Are you okay?" He asked snapping me out of whatever it was I was in.
"Huh?! Oh yeah I'm fine." I said.
"Are you sure? Because it's been like 22 minutes since I left you here." He said pulling me out of the room.
"Really?! I had no clue!" I said a little bit scared.
"Just sit with us and you'll be fine." Zak said pulling me into a hug when we reached the room where they go over film and do voiceovers.
"What's wrong?" Aaron asked.
"I think she was kinda possessed by one of my friends here." Zak said pulling me over and we sat in the red leather love-seat pulled to the editing station.
"Don't even say that Zak, please!" I said, panic starting.
"You'll be fine! Just don't let it in. Calm down." Zak and Aaron both said.
"You know what? I'm going for a drive.. I'll be back in like 10 to 15 minutes. Zak? Can I have your keys?" I said jumping up.
"Which car?" He asked.
"The Challenger." I said with a smirk. Then he pulled out the keys from his pocket.
"Registration, papers, everything is in the dash compartment... Hmm and maybe some cash in the sun visor..." He said flinging the keys at me.
"Thank you." I said, turned to start to walk back to the bedroom to get my purse, then stopped turned back towards the guys, "Zak? Mind if you walk up here with me for a minute?"
"Ah sure." Zak said seeing how scared I was to go alone. He got up and took my hand then we headed to the bedroom to get my stuff.
I quickly gathered my stuff I needed and put it all in my purse then turned back to Zak who was watching me while leaning on the doorframe. I looked at him and then walked over setting my stuff on the bed then glanced up to him.
"I love your eyes." He said thumbing a piece of my hair behind my ears. "They are just so beautiful. Big and brown, like chocolate."
I laughed, "Oh thanks Zak. Is there something wrong with you?" I asked after.
"No, I'm fine." He said kissing me.
"Mmmm your kisses are like you." I said moving so he was holding me in his arms.
We stood there for a minute or two, until Aaron was yelling at Zak, and walking to where we were. And he just walked in as we were kissing again.
"Woah, hope I didn't interrupt anything!" Aaron said after he flipped on lights and saw us.
"No you're fine Aaron." Zak said pushing me away.
Zak has issues with showing affection when we aren't alone, it hurts my feelings a little but not a lot. Because I know it's just as hard for him as it is for me. I mean, around the world he's known as a big time fearless ghost hunter, but here alone with me, he's this sweet, charming man that loves me and will protect me from anything.
He spends most of his time at the gym and at the animal shelter, besides ghost hunting.. The most sweetest thing I have ever seen is Zak with those puppies at the shelter! With the way his eyes light up, and his smile! Man! I could go on forever about his smile!
While we walked out of the bedroom heading back to the living room, I watched them as I made my way to the garage to leave, I unlocked the door to the car, threw my bag in the passenger seat put the key in the ignition and started the car, opened the garage door and just as I put the car in reverse, Zak came out alone. I rolled down the window just as he put his head in, kissed me and whispered in my ear to be safe and come back soon.
"Text me, not while I'm driving, but text me." I said pulling out.
He nodded his head and went back inside, once I was out on the road I put the car in drive and took off.
I could instantly feel something relieve itself off of me. I felt better, much better. I drove and drove, then decided to go to my uncles. He lived in Vegas as well and I haven't seen him in a long time.
My uncle was staring at Zak's car as I pulled in the driveway, parked and shut off the engine.
"Where'd you get that beauty?!" He cooed.
"Oh it's my boyfriends car." I said locking it up and hugging my uncle.
"Ah I see. Who's that?" He asked. Hugging me back.
"Zak Bagans." I answered.
"The Ghost Adventures guy?" He asked.
"Yep, that's him." I said.
"I never thought I'd see the day my niece would be dating a ghost hunter! Let alone driving his car in Vegas!" My uncle laughed and invited me in.
"Well I never thought it either! But it happened! Actually I travel with him when they go to their locations, I'm their photographer." I said.
"Impressive! Little miss big time photographer." He chuckled.
I laughed too. Then sent Zak a text telling him I was at my uncles, and I might be here for a few, then gave him the address and added if you want to come over after you're done. He sent back k and love you.
I visited my uncle for about an hour before Zak texted me and asked if I wanted him to come over. I told him that I didn't mind, he could if he wanted too.
Then the next thing I knew the doorbell rang...
"I'll get it!" I yelled at my uncle who went to the restroom.
I ran and opened the door, I looked at shoes first and then to his face, it was Zak!
"Hey babe." He said pulling me into his arms.
"Hey!" I said.
Then we heard the toilet flush and my uncle came into the room, saw us and laughed.
"Well don't let my niece keep you in rain! Come on in!" He said waving his arms in a motion to come in.
Zak shrugged, let me go and came in. He kicked off his shoes like me, and took off his jacket setting it next to mine.
"Do y'all want to stay for dinner?" My uncle yelled from the kitchen.
I went into the kitchen to reply, "I don't know if we want to, we only ate like what? An hour ago?"
"Yeah, it was like an hour ago.. But we can stay if you want." Zak said.
"I'd thought I'd offer while y'all were here.. But I must ask, this is Mr. Bagans?" My uncle asked.
"Yes, uncle, this is Zak." I said blushing.
"Well Zak, I hope you're taking good care of my niece. Because all it would take is one phone call to her dad and it would be over." My uncle teased.
"You wouldn't?!" I yelled.
"He's only teasing, love. Yes sir I am taking care of her. She means the world to me, and besides that I love to travel with her, she gets pretty crazy on the road." Zak said teasing me now too.
"You guys are just comical! Yeah I think I'm ready to go, too. It was nice to see you again uncle." I said hugging him and then leaving to get my stuff, Zak following.
My uncle walked us out, Zak shook his hand told him it was nice to meet him and we parted ways to the cars as I was sliding in the Challenger Zak yelled at me,"Race ya!"
So we raced back to the house, I beat him of course by like a second but that was only because I was in the top notch car and he wasn't.
"Man! I can't believe you beat me!" Zak said as we got out of the cars and headed back into the house.
"I can believe it!" I said jumping up and down because sometimes I don't beat him.
"Whatever! But how about that shower now?" He asked as we walked into the kitchen from the garage.
"Sure, why not!" I said and we took off, to his bathroom.
