Making it together

Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Zack's POV

I woke up gorogly from last nights sleep. My arms are wrapped around my beautiful girl. Her blondey, brown hair is draped over her face. I pull her hair back softly trying not to wake her up. I lightly run my hand over her jaw bone and up to her cheek. I move down across her big plump lips and place my thumb on her on her bottom lip brush over it softly.

She starts to move and whipers. I pull my hand back quickly trying to to let her wake up. I bring up the sheets to cover her body. I don't want her to feel cold. I slip out of bed and put on some pants and and a t-shirt. I walk over to Lily's room trying not to wake her up. I see that she's beginning to stir awake.

"Morning bubby." Lils slowly opens her eyes and gives me a big hug. Well as a big as a little girl can give.

"Hey Zacky!" she nuzzles her head in my neck. She places her hands over my heart. Something she has been doing since she was born. I think it's a comforting sound to her. The steady, low beats radiating from my chest.

"Do you want to get some breakfast for Tay tay?" She nods her head vigorously. We both go into the living room. I put on TV making sure to skip any channel that would have anything on about Taylor and I. I put on Disney channel and let her sit and watch.

While she's watch I organise for room service to send up some breakfast. Some eggs, toast and bacon for Taylor and I. Some pancakes and ice-cream for Lily. I grab a mug of joe for Taylor. I know she may be a bit upset today. The thought of revealing our identities always upset her. We both only wanted privacy and to finish high school.

When the knock comes on the door I open it. It's a young man who walks in and sets up the food. "OH you're - you're that Zack guy! You and Taylor... yeah Tyalor are all over the news."

"Dude can you just leave the stuff and go please." I can't be bothered really. I trymy best to be respectful to everyone but guys like this anoy me. They have loud mouths and pry and prod into everyone's business.

"No, wait let ask you something. Is that Lily girl your kid?" When the hell. She's my sister!

"Mate if you want to keep you job I would go before I call the manager." He is not getting my message. He is still constantly pry and trying to get into our room. He keeps pushing me back trying to look into our room.

"Just answer the question and I'll go." This is too much. I walk over to the phone and call reception.

"May I talk to the hotel manager?"

"Sure sir. Let me get him for you." There was a break in the line while the receptionist go the Manager.

"Good morning sir. How may I help you?" An old raspy voice came across the phone. We have spoken with him before and he said that he will give us our privacy and if we have any problems, to call thim. Well I do. And it's this doche here.

"Well I am in the penthouse and I have just ordered room service and the man who came to deliver the food has been annoying me. I specifically asked when I booked not be disturbed or asked questions about the interview last night and he has been asking me questions and been disturbing the peace in my room."

"Of course sir. He will be suspended I told him not to ask any questions and disturb you this morning. I will personally bring up anything that you need. I am sorry sir."

"Thank you." I hang up and walk over to the delivery man. "I think you should go down and talk with your manager. He's not very happy." With that he leaves and apologises. Too little, too late.

"Lily!" I call. I hear little footsteps running along the floor boards. "Common, Have some breaky" I lift her onto the chair and set the plate of pancakes with ice-cream in front of her with her sippy cup filled with apple juice.

While Lily's eating I wake up Taylor. I walk into the room and open the blind to the view that overlooks the Melbourne city skyline. I walk over to bed. I jump up on the side of the bed where she's sleeping. I lightly shake her shoulder trying to wake her up. Trying being the key word. I slowly place kisses along her jaw one down to her lips. She started to stir. I place a kiss on her lips. She begins to kiss me back. Our lips move in sync against each other. Taylors arms wrap around my neck. I grab her hips and pull her closer to me. I run one of my hands up her sides. Massaging my hands hands along his sides. I pull back out of breath, but I also know I won't be able to stop myself if we keep going.

"Good morning babe." She kisses my lips softly and quickly.

"Good morning. I have breakfast ready for us." Taylor nods her head. She gets up and puts on one of my old T-shirts that she claimed a while back and a pair of PJ boxer shorts. We go out and sit at the table.

"Hey Lily baby." Taylor gives Lily a really tight hug.

"Mornin sissy."

"Hey how are you?"

"I'm awl good!" Lily expands her arms being her little dramatic self. We laugh at her response. She is gonna be a little drama queen when she's older.

"So what are we gonna do today?" Taylor asks while yawning.

"I think we need to get to management. They want to talks about where to go from here. Some are say we should do some concerts here before we go back to the states. Others want us to head back and do more interviews. I think we should stay here for a bit. Like we're from here so we need to thank everyone here for all they've done for us."

"Yeah. I totally agree." Taylor nods. "We have enough time that we can do stuff here and then go back to LA."

"Lets watch some movies before we go to management."

We all sit on the couch. I wrap my arms around Taylor. She nuzzles into my shoulder. Lily's on the floor eagerly watching the movie. We keep watching movies all day until we are needed to be a HQ.

On the way in to HQ no one knew it was us. We talked to the management team. They agreed with out terms. So we are planning to stay in Australia for 3 more weeks. We will travel to the different states and perform a joint performance. We will do some meet and greets and do a few interviews. It also means we get some more time backing our home country.

We both agree that after the stint in Australia we will go back to LA and set up our lives. Get a new house move in and get ready. I think we may beed to get a nanny for Lily so that when we have shows or interviews she is looked after. Though we will still look after her as normal.

After getting settled we will plan a tour. Hopeful a world tour. A way we can thank all our fand and show we are still the same people. Maybe before tour I can finish my plans...
