(Vanessa's POV)
I woke up the next morning to two muscular arms tightly wrapped around me. I loved it when Zac cuddled me as his teddy bear in bed. There was a lot of things to be done today around the house and to prepare for the Triplets first day of Kindergarten. I could already hear the kids running around downstairs and Stella yelling at them so I decided I better get up and give Stella a break. I wiggled my way out of Zac's tight grip and managed to not wake him up.
As I walked into the kitchen I saw a very tired looking Stella sitting at the breakfast Island sipping a cup of Coffee.
"Hey Stella"
"Your kids have way too much energy." She said to me without an emotion in her voice.
I poured myself a cup of coffee and said, "Most 5-year olds do have a lot of energy..." I looked over at Christopher, "...although your child is an exception. I have never met a 5-year old that sat on the couch all day and read books and watched TV."
"It makes him happy." Stella simply stated.
"Zac and I are going to a party tonight, should I get a babysitter for the kids or would you like to watch them? We'll pay you."
"I'll watch them. What party are you two going to now?!"
I laughed, "To tell you the truth, I really don't know. It's something that Zac got invited to."
"The glourious life of Zanessa ladies and gentlemen." Stella sarcastically said as she waved her hands in the air.
"If you want to go with Zac you can Stella, I'll stay home." I told my lil sister.
"Haha, your funny Ness. Why would I want to go someplace that was going to have cameras and get my picture taken with your husband?"
"Just a thought." I stated. Just then Chloe ran over to me and wrapped her arms around my torso.
"Mommy, protect me, the evil villans Madison and Annabell is going to get me and Superman Connor is lost."
I leaned down to pick her up and began to join in on there playtime, "Where should we go hide then Mistress Chloe?"
Stella laughed as Chloe stated, "I don't know Mommy, that's why I need your help."
I smiled, Chloe could be so innocent sometimes, "Then we should hide in the tree-fort, no one will find us there!" Chloe giggled and then we ran outside to the tree house.
(Zac's POV)
I rolled over in my bed to see and empty spot next to me. Then I looked at the clock and saw that it was already 11:30. Very slowly I got out of bed and then noticed that I was only in my boxers, oh yeah, last night. I got dressed and walked downstairs to find the kitchen smelling of Vanessa's famous grilled cheeses and Ashley's famous brownies, god how they spoiled the kids.
I kissed each of our kids on the forehead and then made my way to Vanessa who was hovered over the stove top making grilled cheese.
"What time have you been up since baby?" I asked whispered in V's ear.
She flipped the sandwiches over and turned to me and said, "Around 8. I can't believe you didn't hear the kids."
"Yeah Zac, how hard of a sleeper are you?" Ashley said as she helped V prepare the kids plates.
"Well, if someone hadn't kept moaning to me to do it just one more time last night then maybe I wouldn't have been so tired."
"Zac, too much information, although I did hear you guys last night." Stella said.
"You didn't." Vanessa said with a stern look on her face while she slapped Zac on the chest, "I told you to be quieter!"
"Kidding!" Stella said as a wide grin spread across her face.
"So what are you guys trying to do, have baby number 5?" Jared enthusiastically asked.
"Shut up Jared." Vanessa said as she handed each of the kids a plate with a grilled-cheese, some carrots and a brownie.
"Mommy, I don't want this." Annabell said as she poked her food.
"Sweets this is what we are having for lunch, if you don't want it then you'll have to wait until dinner." Ashley told Annabell. If one of mine or Nessa's kids didn't want what we were having to eat we would make them something else.
After all the kids were done eating they went outside to play. Ness, Jared, Ashley, myself and Stella were sitting the family room watching TV and talking, then the phone rang, Vanessa went to answer it.
VANESSA- Italics
POLICE/HOSPITAL- Bold
Hello.
Hello, is there a Vanessa Efron around?
Yeah, this is her.
I'm sorry Mrs.Efron but we have called to inform you that your father has had a stroke.
WHAT!? Is he ok?
He is stable but in order to release any more information you will need to come down to the Hospital right away.
Ok, I'll be right there.
Be right there? Who was Vanessa talking to, then I saw the tears start to form in her eyes, this couldn't be good.
"Nessa, what's the matter?" I asked her as she ran upstairs to our room. I followed after her.
I walked into our master bedroom to find Vanessa in hesterics while trying to get dressed, "Baby, please tell me what's going on."
She stopped for a mere second and quickly told me what was the matter, "My dad...he, he had a stroke." My heart sank, I knew how close Vanessa had become to her dad since the triplets were born and how hard this had to be on her.
"Are we going to the hopsital then, should the kids come."
"No, just you and I. You can leave after a little while so you can go to your show thing."
"Babe, I'm gonna stay with you, it's all going to be alright."
"God Zac, I hope your right." Vanessa said to me as we walked hand in hand downstairs and told everybody the news. quickly after telling everyone we left for the hospital. Vanessa insisted on driving but I knew that she was in no state of mind to be driving so I told her I would.
We got to hopsital quickly as I sped the whole way. There were already a sea of paparazzi outside the hospital and I had no clue how they already figured out that was where we were going. Vanessa was on the verge of tears and I gave her a comforting smile as we exited the car.
The front desk had no line so Vanessa went right up to the women and asked her, "Hi, I am looking for Greg Hudgens." (An:I think that's his name...)
Without looking up the lady said, "I'm sorry miss, information can only be given to family."
Vanessa bit her lip, "I am family."
"Miss I'm well aware of who you are and your last name is not Hudgens."
"Look ladie, my dad is in there possibly dieing. Have you ever heard of getting married and changing your last name...opps, you wouldn't know because given by your looks you've never had a husband." Wow, I have never seen Vanessa talk to someone like that.
The ladie looked up and said, "Just because your a famous little bitch does not mean that you can walk into my lobby and be an ass."
I had had enough now, "Yo, nobody calls my wife a bitch or an ass. Now if you'll excuse us, we have to go in the emergency rooom to find her father."
With that whole ordeal over with now Vanessa and I walked in the emergency room to another desk with a receptionest at it.
"Hi, I'm looking for Greg Hudgens." Vanessa said again.
"Ok, he is in room A123 on the 2nd floor. The elevators are right aroudn that corner." she said pointed to her right.
"Thank you." I told her and Vanessa ran to the elevator.
Once we were in the elevator Vanessa broke down again, "He can't die, Zac, I won't be able to cope."
I pulled her into my chest, "Shh baby, it's all gonna be alright."
