Author's Note: Taken awhile... But it's here! I've had the ending in my head, but when I finally took the time to type it out, it came out differently...But it's not that bad. -laughs- Anyways, sorry for the long wait, love y'all though!

Final Chapter: Bye Zac
"Elizabeth wouldn't be too happy if you got your dress wet."
Vanessa whirled around to see Zac there.
"What the hell are you doing here?" she hissed, slipping her foot back into her shoe.
"It's your birthday," Zac said.
"Well you weren't invited to the party," Vanessa snapped.
"Look, Nessa. I'm sorry."
"Whatever, Zac."
"Shouldn't you be at your party?" Zac asked.
"Why would you care?" Vanessa said, staring out at the navy blue coloured sky.
"I'm sorry."
"Well you know what, Zachary?"
"What?" Zac said, full of hope that he was forgiven.
"It's a little too late for 'I'm sorry'."
"Why won't you forgive me?" Zac said, as Vanessa walked closer to the shore at the beach.
"Zac. Sorry doesn't make up for all the time, sorry doesn't make up for all the screwed up emotions I felt. Sorry doesn't really change anything. You may be just saying that just so I'll stop trash talking you on television." Vanessa said, looking at him, with her hand on her hips.
"What can I do to have you forgiveness?"
"Nothing."
"How will doing nothing gain your forgiveness?"
"Nothing, as in, stay out of my life. I have new friends now, everything different. High School Musical is the past. You're the past too. Even if I forgive you now, you're still gonna stay in the past. I don't want you in my future, and that's that. Stay out of it, and you'll have my forgiveness. Except that my forgiveness doesn't mean you're part of my future. It just means that you're not being hated by me. Our friendship is over; it was over when you became Marissa's boyfriend. Even if you break up with her, it'll still be over.
"You chose her over me, I can't seem to be able to forgive you for that. The most I can do is grant you forgiveness for not butting into my life again. I'm sorry, yet I'm not sorry at the same time, because it's not my mistake. Stay out, and you'll get my forgiveness. Butt back in, and you'll never get my forgiveness again. Bye, Zac."
The End ♥
