Exactly 24 days have passed since the mini celebration of my successful callback. After that, so much has changed. So much. They just called me. I actually got the part. I actually got the part! If anyone would've told me I would be starring in the movie rendition of my favourite musical two years ago, I never would've believed you. I can't believe they actually picked me!!!!!!!!!!!
There were so many people auditioning for that role. Was I just lucky? Did I really deserve this role? It was too mindblowing that the cast directors actually said "Congratulations you got the part" through my phone speakers. This was legit. I was actutally going to be in my first movie. My favourite musical. O.M.G.
Now, here I am, packing for my 5 month trip to London, maybe longer, I don't know. I can't believe this is actually happening. I informed Disney about my commitment to this movie and they said they will not be shooting any episodes anytime soon as it was a season break for Living the Dream, but I may need to fly back here to do a Christmas Special which I was more than obliged to do it. It wouldn't class with the shooting in London, well thanks to my manager, everything is all sorted out.
The thing is, no one is going with me. And no one knows about this yet. I haven't told a soul pther than my parents. My mom would be staying with me because, well I'm still a teenager and she belives I need to be under parental supervision in a foriegn country, eventhough I pretty much live on my own now, with her being about 2 hours away from where I am currently living. My Dad however, being the work-a-holic he is, insisted he stayed in L.A. because he is 'responsible for his given tasks', he's part of the FBI.......
Chelsea is out with Nathan. Skyler and Courtney are busy with finals. Blair is probably somewhere with Mike. And David and April are probably still in bed since they are late wakers and its only 8 a.m.
And Zac? I don't know. I don't know what to say to him... He can't possibly fly to London with me right? Right? He has so much to do here, with his album and everything. He can't possibly come with me. That means it would be a long distance relationship. Do those work?
I stopped packing for awhile and slumped down on my bedroom sofa.
What should I tell him? How are we supposed to be dating if we can't even see each other? Touch each other? Skype? FaceTime? Texting? Would he want to give it a shot? Was I worth all this trouble to him? Or.... or.... should we just... break up? No. I don't want to. I want him to be mine and I want to be his. Does he feel the same?
Argh.
Why does this got to be so hard.
My cell phone beeped. Oh, a text!
'Al, I'm coming over right now.'
Zac's coming over right now! Quick! Hurry! Hide my suitcase!
I sped cleaned my room, shoving my clothes into my closet and my suitcase into the bathroom.
"Ding dong." He's here alright. I checked my room for the millionth time to make sure everything looked perfectly normal.
Okay. Everything looks perfectly fine. I sped walked towards the door and opened it.
"Hey!" I partially screamed, I don't know why.
"Whoa, why are you so worked up? Did something happen? Is everything okay?"
"Um, yeah!" I said in a hurried tone.
"Okay... you're being really weird right now."
I shrugged at that comment and took a deep breath. I gestured him to come in, and so he did.
(Random A/N: Pic of Alethia and Zac to the right at the twilight premiere, actually nina dobrev and chace crawford at the 2010 TCAs)
"So, whats up?" I asked, a little curious as to why he came over all over a sudden.
I stared at his profile, he's so... There's no words worthy enough to describe what I was staring at now. My mind searched for a paricular word. But no avail. He's just so... And two weeks. I only get two weeks before I leave to London. Where all of this may not even continue.
"Why? Can't I just come over to see you?"
I smiled. "Of course you can." And with that, I leaned in for a kiss. He was so sweet.
"Come!" I dragged him into my room, still mentally debating whether to tell him about my trip to London or not.
I slumped on the edge of my bed.
"Sit!" I patted on my comforter.
I fished out my phone to check my twitter feed, recently, I've been kind of obsessed.
'Yay! Mornin' with da bae!' I tweetted. "C'mon! Selfie time!" Zac leaned in for a selfie. I attached that photo with the tweet and posted it.
I turned around, only to see Zac looking at me with a smile.
"What?" I was wondering why he was looking at me like that.
"You look so cute being focused and all." And he ruffled my hair.
I merely wrinkled my nose, blushing slightly.
We both layed on my bed, staring on the ceiling.
I turned around so that we were both looking at each other. I stared at those electric blue ores, staring back at my plain brown eyes.
"I love you." He whispered. My heart fluttered.
"I love you too." I whispered back. And we layed there, just staring at each other for as long as one can remember.
That was before Zac abruptly got up a carried my laptop from my desk to where we once were laying.
"What do you wanna do?" I questioned him.
"I don't know." He turned on my laptop.
"Lets make videos!" I suggested enthusiastically.
"Okay!"
I clicked on the photobooth icon and started the video record button.
"Hey!"
"Hey!" Zac followed.
"Today is our first video that we are making, out of boredom." I announced.
"Yo...
If I won the lotto tomorrow
well I know
I wouldn't bother going on no spending spree
I'd pick a business school and pay the entrance fee
Then maybe, if you're lucky, you'll stay friends with me.
I'll be a business man,
richer than Nina's daddy,
Donald Trump and I on the links,
and he's my caddy
My money's making money, I'm going from po' to moto
Keep the bling, I want the brass ring like frodo!" I suddenly rapped.
"That's from... 'In the heights'?" Zac asked.
"Aww, you know this song too?" I smiled excitedly at him.
"Oh no, there goes mr. Braggadocio
Next thing you know, you're lying like pinnochio"
I smiled. He does.
"Well if you're scared of the bull, stay out of the rodeo!"
"Yo, I got more hoes than a phone book in tokyo!" He continued.
"Ooh, you'd better stop rappin'
"You're not ready, it's gonna get hot and heavy and you're already sweaty-"
"y-y-yo-yo"
"Yo, I'm sorry, was that an answer? Shut up, go home and pull your damn pants up! As for you, Mr. Frodo of the shire, 96 gs ain't enough to higher"
I started laughing.
"What?" Zac asked with a confused look on his face? "Was it wrong?" I smiled guiltily.
I nodded my head as I hugged my stomach. I was laughing so hard it was aching.
"Wh... why... is it..." I continued laughing. "ain't enough... to... higher?" I finally said between breaths.
"Um. It isn't?" Zac started slowly laughing at himself.
"Of course not!" I half screamed half laughed.
"What?" Zac was laughing now.
"Its... Its... retire. 96... gs ain't... enough to... retire!"
"Ohh!" Zac siad in betweem laughs."Now it makes more sense."
And we, mostly I, spent a great amount of time laughing.
It was until Zac hid his face behind my back. I turned around to see Zac resting his head on my bed, like he was too ashamed to show his face. Kind of what I did, on the Dani show months ago...
"You have been living a lie!" I told Zac playfully.
"I know." The bed muffled Zac's voice. "But hey," he continued. "rememeber when you did this on the Dani show?"
"Oh my god that was so embarassing can you please not remind me of this." I placed my palms on my now warm cheeks.
He just laughed.
"You better get up now," I said in a feigned angry tone. "or else I won't love you anymore."
Hesitating a second, Zac slowly got up like a good puppy.
"Good boy!" I ruffled his hair.
"Haha." I laughed.
We were both staring at the screen, making funny faces. This is so cute.
I opened my hands to hug Zac's head. "You're mine!" I exclaimed. And he smiled.
Then, we both pulled away, looked each other un the eye and kissed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We spent the whole day in my room, listening to music, making videos, singing and talking about anything and everything. I knew he could tell but there was something wrong but everytime he wanted to ask about it, I gave him a sign that I didn't want to talk about it and he just let it slide. I felt kind of bad but I just want to enjoy this moment right now and forget everything that was bothering me.
I love him and he loves me. And that's all that matters to me now.
