Zanessa Stories
Ashley and Vanessa were hanging at Vanessa's house when Vanessa's phone rang.
"Vanessa's Vulture Breading Service, how may I help you?"
"My grandmother's birthday is coming up and I was wondering if vultures are generally allowed in retirement homes?"
"ZAC!!"
"Hey Nessa! What are you doing?"
"Umm… just hanging with Ash. Why?"
"Oh never mind, I was just wondering if you wanted to hang out."
"No, no come!"
"Okay! See you in ten!"
"Bye!"
Vanessa squeals and jumps on her bed.
"You so like him!"
"I so do not!"
"Oh please, Nessa you are such a terrible liar!"
Vanessa sighs and walks into the bathroom. Ashley follows her singing "Zac and Nessa sitting in a tree!"
"Oh be quiet."
"Come on Vanessa, I've never seen you blush so much! Admit it, you like him."
DING DONG!
"I'll get it!" Vanessa squealed and bounded down the stairs. Ashley rolled her eyes, sighed, and went to greet Zac.
Vanessa had already let Zac in when Ashley arrived downstairs.
"Why do you have your purse and jacket? Are you leaving?"
"Oh ya I have a uhh… dentist appointment. I totally spaced. I'll call you later okay." She said winking as she walked out the door. Vanessa stuck out her tongue and turned to Zac.
"So what do you want to do?"
"Well, I just drove by a carnival that looked kinda fun…?"
"Okay! Let me get my purse!" She hopped up the stairs, leaving Zac in the living room.
In Vanessa's Room
She grabbed her purse and stopped in the bathroom to check her hair. As she fiddled with her bangs she thought to herself Do I like him?? Could I really like Zac like that?? No I can't get into that again…
"You comin' NessQuick? Err… NessSlow? Uhh… NessPoke? Ness…"
She ran down the stairs and pulled him out the door.
At the carnival
"Oooooo cotton candy!" Vanessa said skipping back towards Zac.
"Hey Zac…" She began.
He cut her off, "I'd love to buy you some."
"One pink cotton candy please."
"Alright here you go, that'll be 3."
"Thanks Zac!" She said, reaching for it, but Zac held it above his head.
"First…you've got to go on a rollercoaster with me."
"But Zac you know I'm scared of roller coasters!"
"Come on, it'll be fun!"
"Oh… fine, but you'd better give me my cotton candy!"
"I will. Let's go on this one!"
Zac and Vanessa got into the car. The car clicked onto the track and slowly climbed up the hill.
"Zac… I-I don't know about this…"
Zac reached for her hand and smiled reassuringly. Vanessa smiled back butterflies instantly filling her stomach. She squeezed his hand and screamed as they reached the top of the hill.
Later that night
"Wow you can see everything from up here!"
"I know the ferris wheel is so cool at night."
"Y-ya." Vanessa said shivering.
"Oh Nessa you're freezing!" He said draping his jacket over her and pulling her closer.
In the car
"Thanks Zac, I had so much fun tonight." Vanessa said, yawning and closing her eyes.
"You're welcome." He whispered, smiling softly at the already-sleeping Vanessa.
At the stop-light he turned to look at her. She's so beautiful when she's sleeping… Zac thought to himself. He then heard cars beeping behind him and realized the light had turned green. Vanessa sleepily opened her eyes and quietly watched out the window.
"If only she knew…" Zac said to himself, sighing.
"What?" Vanessa asked turning to look at him.
"Oh… uhh… I didn't realize you were awake." He said as they were pulling up to Vanessa's house. She got out of the car.
"Good night."
"Good night."
Vanessa waved before closing the door behind her. She climbed into bed and fell asleep.
