Chapter 9: Back home:

Me and Stella are on the phone.

"Hey Stella!" I said.

"Nessa! Hey!" Stella said excitedly into the phone. "How come you haven't called me for a long time?"

"I'm sorry. We're going to be shooting a commercial and we've had extra long practices." I explained.

"Oh. A commercial. Are you in it?" Stella asked.

"Yeah. Well we're coming down tomorrow." I said.

"I know. I can't wait to see you!" Stella said.

"I know. I can't wait either. But about 12 more hours we'll be on a plane to LA to see you." I explained.

"I know. Oh and guess what! Jayden and Falisha are coming tomorrow to see you!" Stella squeeled.

A/N: Ok just in case some people don't know this, Jayden and Falisha are Vanessa and Stella's cousins.

"Really? That's great. I haven't seen them in awhile either." I said.

"Yeah." Stella said. "So can I talk to Ashley?"

"Uh sure. She's right here." I said handing the phone to Ashley.

"Hey Stella!" Ashley said into the phone.

"Hi Ashley! I can't wait till you come tomorrow!" Stella exclaimed.

"Yeah I know. I haven't seen you since the premeire party last year." Ashley said.

"Yeah. And plus, you get to meet my 2 cousins, Jayden and Falisha." Stella explained.

"Cool." Ashley said. "Well I'll let you get back to Vanessa. Just wanted to say hi." Ashley said.

"Ok. Bye." Stella said.

"Later." Ashley said handing me the phone.

"Hey Stella." I said.

"Hi again." Stella said.

"Ok so we'll see you tomorrow at the air port." I said.

"Yep. And daddy's hiring a limo driver to take you "stars" home." Stella explained.

"Sweet." I said.

"Yeah well Jenny's coming to the airport to meet you guys too. She really wants to meet Zac and Ashley." Stella explained.

"Ok...Tell you what. You and Jenny can ride with us in the limo." I said.

"Yey!" Stella said.

"Yeah well I got to go." I said.

"K. Bye." Stella said.

"Bye." I said. Then we hung up. Then Zac and Chris came knocking on the door.

"Hey guys." I said letting them in.

"Hey Nessa." Zac said. Then he gave me a kiss.

"So what ya guys up to?" Chris asked.

"Nothing. Just packing." I said.

"Cool. Well I'm all packed already." Zac explained.

"So am I." Ashley and Chris said.

"Ok, I'm the only one that's not packed?" I asked.

"Well. Monique and Corbin might not be. Or Lucas." Ashley said.

"Corbin is." Zac said.

"So is Lucas." Chris said.

"Well I didn't see Monique packing." I said.

"Ok this is probably the weirdest conversation ever." Ashley said.

"No it's not." Zac said.

"Ok maybe not quite, but you're worried that you're the only one not packed." Ashley said with a weird face.

"Right." I said. "Well I guess you guys get to meet my 2 cousins Jayden and Falisha."

"Cool." They all said.

"I knew that." Ashley bragged. "Stella told me over the phone."

"Ah huh. Well where are we going to be staying in LA?" Zac asked.

"You guys are staying at my house." I explained.

"Ok." Zac said.

"Well I'm hungry. So I'm gonna go to Subway." Chris explained.

"I'll come with you." Ashley said then they left.

"So now what?" I asked.

"I don't know. Do you wanna watch tv?" Zac asked me.

"Sure." I said. Then we laid down next to each other. Then 1 hour later I fell asleep on Zac's chest.

The next day.

"Ok. Before you guys are excused to leave back home, I just want you to know that you have to come back on Monday. You have to be here! Other wise you will suffer some very serious consequences. Especially if you're one of the main characters." Kenny explained. Me and Zac looked at each other. We'll be back. "Ok. So that's all I have to say. So I'll see you all in 4 days!"

Then me, Zac, Ashley, Lucas, Monique, Corbin, and Chris all went to the airport and boarded the plane. We sat in the order with Corbin by the isle, then Monique, then Chris, then Ashley, then me, then Zac, then Lucas.

"So what did you say your cousins names were?" Ashley asked.

"Jayden and Falisha." I told her.

"Oh ok." Ashley said.

"So how long is this plane ride? It's seems like it's been like 5 hours." Lucas complained.

"Ok Lucas. First thing plane ride is like 4 hours and second we just got on the plane!" I exclaimed.

"Well sorry...I'm just so bored..." Lucas said looking out the window but I just gave him a weird face.

"Attention everyone! The captian has turned off the seat belt sign so you guys may roam around the plane at this moment." The flight attendant explained.

"Well I'm going to the cafe." Lucas said.

"There's no cafe. They come around with a cart." Monique told him.

"Well I'm gonna go find one of the roll around cafes." Lucas said leaving.

"Ok then." Me, Ashley, and Monique said.

"What ya looking at?" I asked Zac.

"Oh nothing. Just Sport Ilustrated." Zac explained.

"Oh interesting. So Ash what are you doing?" I asked.

"Filing my nails." I said.

"What are you doing?" I asked Monique.

"Uh...watching a movie." Monique said turning on her portable dvd player.

"What ya watching?" I asked.

"High School Musical." Monique said. "I can't get enough of myself."

"Ah huh." I said. I can't see the movie cause she's 3 seat down from me.

"How bout you Chris? What are you doing?" I asked.

"Watching the movie with Monique." Chris said watching it.

"Ah huh." I said. Now I have nothing to do. Or nobody to talk to.

Finally 4 hours later. We're in LA!

"Ok her flight should be landing about now." My dad said looking at the clock.

"Where is she?" Stella asked looking around.

"Well like you mom said. Her flight should be landing right now. So the odds are she's in the plane." Jayden told her.

"Right." Stella said.

"Just hold on Stella. She'll be here in just a bit." My dad said.

"Ah huh." Stella said.

"Gosh Stella, you're really siked to see her I see." Jenny said.

"Well duh." Stella said.

"Ok I'm gonna go get my bags." I said.

"Yeah." Ashley said. Then I guess everyone followed.

"So where's your family?" Monique asked.

"Probably down on the lower level." I said.

"Ok. Cause I wanna see Stella!" Monique said.

"Yeah!" Ashley said grabbing her stuff.

"Well she's here." I said. "I'm pretty sure."

"Oh there she is!" Jayden yelled.

"Hey guys!" I said running up to them.

"Nessa!" Jayden, Falisha, and Stella yelled.

"Hey!" I said giving them each a hug and a kiss.

"Vanessa!" All my friends yelled running up to me.

"Hey guys!" I yelled giving them hugs.

"Hi Vanessa." Jared said quietly.

"Hi Jared." I said giving him a hug.

"Ashley!" Stella yelled giving her a hug.

"Hey Stella!" Ashley said.

"Hey Stella!" Zac exclamied.

"Hi Zac!" Stella yelled.

"Oh my gosh!" Jayden and Falisha both said.

"Uh you guys these are my 2 cousins Jayden and Falisha. Guys this is Ashley Tisdale, and Zac Efron." Stella explained.

"Hi." Jayden said speechless.

"Hi." Ashley and Zac said.

"Oh and this is my best friend Jenny." Stella explained.

"Hi." Jenny said with a shy voice.

"Hi." They both said. Then Stella introduced them to the rest of the cast.

"So hows the movie going?" Kaylin asked.

"It's great. I can't wait til you guys can see it." I said.

"Yeah." Kaylin said. "So...Oh my gosh that's Zac Efron!"

Then Kaylin ran over to him.

"Hi Zac! I am like your biggest fan! I love you!" Kaylin said.

A/N: Well actually in real life I personally think I am! lol...

"Thanks. Hi." Zac said.

"Hi." Kaylin said. "And you're Ashley Tisdale! This is the best day of my life!"

"Hi." Ashley said.

"So are you guys ready to go?" I asked picking up Stella.

"Yep." I said.

"Yeah." Falisha said.

"Ok. Well then let's get into the limo." I said.

"Ok. But we have to stop at the hospital dad said. Mom wants to see you." Stella said.

"Oh yeah." I said sadly thinking of my mom.

"Well let's go." Monique said.
