The Offer 2:

"Please welcome our next guest, the wonderful and beautiful, Vanessa Hudgens." Kelly Ripa said

Vanessa walked out to screaming fans. "Hi." She greeted Regis and Kelly each with kisses to the cheek, and then sat in her chair, "How are you?"

"I'm wonderful and yourself?" Kelly asked

"I'm great." Vanessa said smiling

Regis said, "You look wonderful."
"Well thank you." Vanessa took a drink of the water.

Kelly said, "I have to ask. How is Zac?"

"He's good; he's working on another movie right now, so I really miss him."

"And I understand that you're working on a new television series?" Regis asked

Vanessa nodded and said, "ABC approached me about 2 or 3 months ago with this script and I read it over and just fell in love with it."

"What's it called?"

"Secrets." Vanessa said

"And what's it about?"

"Well basically this girl comes home from college to find her parents murder and she tries to find the killer. Along the way she started to discover all her families' secrets."

"Wow, and I heard somewhere that your co-star is the hunky Channing Tatum."

"Yes, you heard right. Channing is so much fun. We started filming last week and he was just so funny, he made everyone really comfortable."

"And he plays your old flame in the series?"

"Yeah, we were rehearing trying to fight with each other and we couldn't stop smiling at each other. We tired everything thing to get the smile off our faces. They had to put Vic's under my eyes to make me start crying because I couldn't cry. It's was funny, the reason my lip was trembling was because I was trying not to laugh."

"Have Zac and Channing met?"

"Yeah, Zac came with me the first day because he was off and I didn't want to miss any time with him because it was his only day off."

Regis said, "I saw the movie you just did. Very good by the way, but how do you balance everything to with movies and TV shows, your family, and Zac?"

"It's really hard and I learned that at certain times you just need to take a step back and just let everything go and take care of yourself and the ones you love. Don't get me wrong I love my fans so much but sometimes I just want to be normal again."

Regis said, "I heard that you had an incident with one of the paparazzi, what happened?"

"Paparazzi are normally really pushy. We were coming out of Hide and were waiting for the car to come around. One knocked into me, trying to get a picture and I almost fell out into the street. Zac grabbed me and turned to the guy. He just kept snapping pictures like nothing happened. The next day there's a picture of me on the front page of Star saying how I was stumbling out of the bar."

"They do have a knack for capturing celebs at there worst."

"Don't I know it?" Vanessa jokes, "It's really hard to try and show people that you're not that little girl, without getting scrutinized for it."

Kelly said, "Now there was reports the Playboy contacted you, but it didn't say weather you accepted or declined."

"Well Playboy did in fact email me a little over 4 months ago. They want me to be cover and a centerfold."

"So are you going to do it?"

"Well I talked it over with Zac and my family, because they would be the ones effected to and I told Playboy…"

Zac turned off the TV, "Hey I was watching that." Vanessa said, she was currently curled up by his side

"Babe, you did the interview. Are you really that conceited that you need to see yourself on the TV?"

"HEY!" She yelled smacking him with a pillow.

Zac looked shocked for a moment, and then his face broke out in a grin, "Now you're going to get it Nessa." He grabbed his own pillow and hit her.

"Stop." She jumped up, running around the room with him close behind.

"When I get a hold of you I'm gonna tickle you silly."

Vanessa darted up the steps, Zac behind her, taking them two at a time, "Catch me if you can." She yelled over her shoulder, absentmindedly going into their bedroom. "Shit." She muttered.

Zac blocked the doorway, Vanessa on the other side of the bed. "I got you cornered now."

"Maybe, but I refuse to admit defeat."

"Oh really? You won't be thinking that when I have you pinned to the bed."

"Do I normally think of anything when you have me pinned to the bed?" Vanessa said with a seductive smile.

Zac caught her double meaning and tossed her a grin, "Well I don't think so. The only things you say are Zac in those cute little pants of yours." Zac walked a little close, Vanessa saw her opportunity, she jumped across the bed but Zac grabbed, "I don't think so, I got ya." He covered her body with his. "Now that I have you right where I want you, I'm gonna tickle you."

Vanessa pushed her body into his, "I think there's a better use of the bed while we're on it." Vanessa wrapped her arms around Zac's neck, bringing his head down for a kiss.

Zac allowed her to kiss him, getting lost. But he pulled back, "You can't think you're going to get away with hitting me with one little kiss."

Vanessa shook her head, "No." She pulled her shirt off and said, "I was thinking of doing more then that…a lot more."

"Sweet Jesus."

"Does this help you forget?" She asked kissing the side of his mouth.

"Forget what?"

Vanessa just smiled to herself, "Nothing." She mumbled as she started to kiss his chest. "You're wearing too many clothes for my liking." She said kissing his mouth.

"Well let me fix that." Zac said pulling off his shirt.

An hour later, they were cuddled together on their bed. "I love you." Zac whispered into her hair

"I love you too." She whispered back.

As they were kissing, a knock fell upon the door, Zac groaned, "I'll get it, you stay right where you are and don't move a muscle."

"Okay." She said as he slipped on a pair track pants.

He walked down stairs and opened the door, "Eww Efron, not your girlfriend and don't want to see your naked chest. Please put a shirt on." Ashley said as she covered her eyes

Zac said, "I'll have you know that Vanessa likes me without a shirt on."

"Vanessa likes you without anything on, but I'm not here and I don't like you like that." She shivered as if she was repulsed. "That would be just wrong."

"Why would it be wrong?"

"Besides that Nesquick is my best friend. You are like a brother to me and I don't believe in incest."

"Right." He said.

Ashley looked around and said, "Where is Nesquick."

"She's upstairs."

"Oh." Ashley went to go up

Zac said, "Where are you going?"

"Up stairs, you said Vanessa was up there. I need to talk to her."

"Let me get her. We'll be down in a minute." Zac said

Ashley grinned, "Oh did I interrupt something?"

"No, just stay down here, make yourself at home."

"I almost do." Ashley said sitting down on the couch, turning on the TV.

Zac shook his head, walking into the bedroom, "Nessa, Ashley's here."

"Okay." She climbed out of bed; she dressed in shorts and a tank top with her UGGS before going down stairs with Zac, who now had a shirt on, "Hey Ash."

"Hey sweetie, sorry to interrupt but I got great news."

"What?"

"Jared asked me to marry him."

"Honey, that's wonderful." Vanessa hugged her best friend.

"I wanted to ask you to be my maid of honor."

"Of course I would. This is so exciting; we need to start planning the wedding."

"That's the other reason why I came over; I was hoping you would help me find a good wedding planner."

"Sure, when do you want to do it?"

"Right now?"

"Sure, let me go get changed really quick and well go." Vanessa headed up the steps.

Zac pulled Ashley into his arms, "Congratulations Ash, you deserve the best and I hope you're really happy."

"I am happy, and thank you. Don't tell him I gave you the heads up, but Jared is going to call later and ask you to be the best man."

"I would love too."

"Thanks Zac."

Vanessa came down the steps, "Ready?"

"Yeah."

They headed out of the house and were met by flashes, "Vanessa how are you?"

"Are you and Zac getting married?"

"Are you and Zac breaking up?"

"Where are the two of you going?"

"Vanessa why did you turn down Playboy?"

Vanessa turned and said, "Because it wasn't right for me." She got in the car with Ashley and they drove off.

There you go, she said no just like everyone asked for. Sorry to say but there are only going to be a few more of these before I decided to stop. I'm having some trouble getting new ideas for this. Hope you like it, please review and tell me what you think.
