Disclaimer: I don't own Zac
Zac stepped down from his front porch and made his way down his walkway, he missed home and even though he went home every chance he got it was always exciting for him because he really missed it. The air of San Luis Obispo was somehow different form LA's a little bit cleaner I guess. Sean peeped his horn again telling him to hurry up.
He laughed as he walked up to the car noticing Samantha was already in the front seat arms crossed staring out the window at him. Zac noticed she wasn't wearing her glasses anymore and her hair was done and she was in her normal clothes "where we going?" Zac asked once he climbed in to the back.
Samantha turned around "Sean won't tell me so I have no idea" Zac heard Sean laugh as he sped away, Samantha's bangs feel in to her eyes and she swiped them away as she sat back down in her own seat "will you just tell me" she said again laughing as he shook his head "No way it's a surprise"
Zac laughed along as he begged the whole way there but once they were close she stopped asking kind of figuring it out on her own. Sean's car came to a stop and once he had turned it off the strong smell of salt water hit Samantha's face.
She smiled as she looked out the front of the car's window watching as the moon reflected off the water "where we met" she said quietly as Sean grabbed on to her hand, Zac kind of wished he hadn't tagged along he always felt weird being the third wheel.
Sean and Samantha got out and Zac followed. Sean and Samantha had walked ahead of him on the empty pier and the boards creaked as they walked along its long path.
Zac followed hearing the wave's crashed as they hit the rocks, a yellow sign warned beach goers of sharks and it remind him of the days when he and his friends would go surfing and laugh about the sissy's staying on the beach afraid of an attack but there wasn't one since August 2003.
In his middle of his walk to the end of the pier he passed Sean and Sam as they stopped to show some public affection. He looked down at his feet seeing old squished popcorn lying there everywhere, the boards were so withered from the weather that some of them moved out of place once you stepped over them, this thing looked like it would go in any second.
Once at the end of the dock Zac stood there taking in the salty air and letting the breeze cool him down, this had to be the one thing he really missed just standing watching the ocean maybe seeing a yacht way out on the horizon or too. The silence was broken when he heard Sean raising his voice then Samantha doing the same to defend herself.
Zac turned his head but not his body and the wind started to whip the side of his cheek blowing his hair all over the place, Sean and Sam where now a good two feet away from each other bickering and then in one blink Sean was off back down the pier and towards the car leaving Samantha standing there looking over the railing.
Zac took his time walking up to her since she hadn't been the nicest today but once there he could see a lone tear resting on the apple of her cheek glistening from the light "what happened?" he asked curious
Samantha wiped at the tear like a reaction and answered quietly "another fight, what else is new" Zac looked past Sam and over at the Car where Sean sat behind the wheel staring right at them "C'mon let's go" Zac said putting his hand on the small of her back nudging her towards the car.
Samantha's body pushed back but then surrender and she walked in front of Zac to the way of the car, not once did she look back to see if he was still following. Once to the end of the pier Zac looked up to see the car's headlights turn on and the engine rev up. "Oh no" Samantha said stopping just as Zac walked up.
Zac stopped too and watched as Sean sped up bringing a storm of dust with him "I can't believe he left"
Samantha said throwing her arms up in the air as she raised her voice. Zac was in disbelief too never once had he seen Sean over react in a fight like this. "What do we do now" Samantha said turning to Zac as the dust settled but he didn't really have an answer so he shrugged "we walk"
The first five minutes of their venture back home was filled with silence the only sounds heard were the sounds of night owls and their feet dragging through the sand and pavement "I can't believe this" Samantha said more upset than ever
"I mean he friggin' left" she said still in utter disbelieve as she shook her head keeping up with his pace.
Zac didn't know what to say either, he was shocked himself it was either Sean really needed to be somewhere or he was just being an ass, a complete ass.
Samantha sort of surprised Zac with another question "so when were you going to ask when me and Sean met" she winked and he chuckled "okay then when did you and Sean first meet"
Samantha giggled too making light of their situation now "well it was my freshman year in college also my first day at the pizza parlor when he dumped a plate of pizza all over his shirt and when we locked eyes we both realized we had gone to school together and soon after we hit it off"
Zac thought for a minute after she stopped talking "you went to our school" he said trying to wave down a passing car, even thought it was a nice night out he didn't want to spend it walking for 3 miles until the town came in to view.
"I wasn't really much of a socialite if you catch my drift" Zac stopped waving to look over at her "figured that much with that attitude you pulled off earlier"
Samantha stopped making Zac stop too and turn around "excuse me I did not have an attitude" she crossed her arms over her just waiting for an explanation to his accusation but Zac didn't need to explain himself so he kept on walking, she was really starting to get annoying.
