Shout out to my fine reviewers of chapter 2: ctin939, FanFictionParty, I Like Writing Romance, mikanluvrmayumi, stephluvvsyou, I-SOAR-HIGH-withmywings12, and Mad-Dog-GXO. Thank you for reviewing! Thanks to everyone else for reading. I know this is a short chapter but I wanted to use the next chapter for Zack and London's day together and the conversations. I hope you still enjoy it.
*I positively do NOT own SL or its characters.*
Previously:
"London!" "Zack!" "What?" "Oh no!" Turning, they see all of their friends staring at them in shock. The last was said by Mr. Moseby who has apparently fainted.
Chapter 3
"Uh hey guys." Zack says looking at everyone. London gives a small wave from his lap, but is busy staring in concern at Mr. Moseby laying prone on the floor. She whispers something into Zack's ear then walks over to kneel down by the unconscious man.
"Moseby?" London shakes his arm. "Moseby!" Still no response. She grabs a glass of water off a nearby table that hadn't been cleared yet and threw the drink in his face.
"Gah! What?" Mr. Moseby sits up wiping water off his face with the handkerchief from his pocket. "I demand to know who did that?" London raises her hand.
"You passed out and wouldn't wake up." London explains as Zack walks up beside her. She grabs his hand with a smile. "Ready to go?"
"Sure thing, babe." Zack gives her a quick peck on the cheek. "Later." He grins at the rest then he and London walk out of the restaurant, hand in hand. The others stare at them, too shocked to say anything.
"What happened?" Mr. Moseby asks confused. "They weren't like this yesterday." Cody, Woody, Marcus and Bailey look back at him equally baffled by this turn of events. Mr. Moseby walks away shaking his head. "I have to go pack."
"What? Why are you packing?" Bailey asks.
"Because, when Mr. Tipton finds out about this, he's going to have me bell-hopping in the remotest part of Siberia." Mr. Moseby whines pitifully. "Why me?"
Bailey, Woody and Marcus all turn to Cody but he just shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head. "He didn't tell me anything. Last I heard, he and Maya had just broken up."
"I wondered why Zack was up so early today but he ran out of the room before I could ask him." Marcus says. "I guess this explains it. Should have known it was about a girl. He took a shower and dressed nice."
"Same with London." Bailey agrees. "Well, not about the clean and nice dressing, but the rest of it. She ran out the door as soon as we heard it knock. I didn't even get a chance to see who it was, which apparently was Zack."
Woody has wondered off to get his breakfast. Zack's love life not nearly as interesting to him as the sausage and French toast. The rest follow, figuring they can discuss the situation while they eat. After getting their food, they find Addison at one of the large tables and join her.
"Did you guys see Zack and London? Oh my God! Aren't they just the cutest couple? I mean, I thought they were. Did you think they were? When did they start dating? It was so sweet with her sitting on his lap and them smiling into each other's eyes. Just so romantic. Don't you think?" Addison pauses to take a breath. "Maybe we should do that too! It was so cute." With that she plops herself down on Woody's lap and wraps an arm around his neck. Startled, Woody drops a sausage he was about to eat down her shirt and, not thinking about, tries to go in after it. Addison starts screaming at him to get his hand out of her shirt causing the whole room to stare at them. Woody, realizing where his hand is, whips it away and stands up in embarrassment, dropping Addison onto the floor. Addison, ticked off, stands up and hits Woody on the arm before stomping away.
"Ow!" Woody rubs his arm and sits back down. "I just wanted to eat my sausage." He grumbles to no one in particular. Bailey rolls her eyes and everyone resumes eating now that the show is over.
"You should talk to him." Bailey says to Cody. They are finally back to being friends after their nasty breakup. It took time, a bunch of apologies and a whole lot of talking.
"I know." Cody sighs, not looking forward to the conversation. "You talk with London. Then we can meet up and compare notes. I hope they know what they're getting into. As much as Zack messes around, I'm pretty sure he would never jeopardize his friendship with London for something meaningless. It's just hard to imagine those two together."
What did you think? What activities do you think Zack and London should do for the day? Review please! Thanks!
