Chele printed the proofs and tidied up before shutting the office for the day and headed to lunch with Taylor, Isaac and Sarah taking them to Tavern On The Green while Jessy and Zac headed to her place. "Cool place Jessy." Zac said as they pulled into the garage. "Thanks. I hate living here though but it's where the clients are or are willing to come." Jessy explained as they headed inside and Jessy gave him a quick tour of the place and they returned to the kitchen, made lunch and sat eating, talking, getting to know each other. "Jessy I'll be fine, you go in and take a nap now." Zac insisted. "Just promise Zac, if you get real bored you'll come wake me, okay?" Jessy asked. "Yes Jessy I promise but I'll be okay." Zac insisted, sending Jessy down the hall to bed. Zac played video games, called home, even went online checking on things on their web site. He was bored out of his mind and had explored her house again. Zac found himself outside her room and finally decided to wake her like he'd promised and he slowly opened the door, making his way inside. He sat on the edge of the bed, gazing at her as she slept. "Jessy." Zac whispered but nothing. "Jessy, babe. Wake up I'm bored." Zac whispered and she stirred, turning in her sleep to face him. "Hey Zac. Time to get up or are you bored?" Jessy asked as she woke. "I'm sorry babe, but I'm bored." Zac confessed. "That's okay Zac. Here lay down with me and let's talk about this anniversary present you guys have in mind." Jessy said opening her arms and holding him as they talked. "Jessy, Jessy?" Zac asked turning to find her asleep. "Sorry babe." Zac said kissing the hand that held him before turning to face her. "Wow you're beautiful." Zac whispered as Jessy sighed then cuddled against him. She slept another hour before she started stirring, "I fell asleep didn't I?" she asked when she found herself in Zac's arms. "Yeah babe. We were talking and suddenly you didn't answer me." Zac answered. "Man I must trust you. Thanks for being a good guy. I still can't believe I did that, I don't trust guys. Too many creeps and then there's the macho pigs." Jessy explained. "You're welcome Jessy." Zac replied, kissing her forehead. "What time is it? she asked and when he answered she decided she'd had enough sleep, got up, showered and dressed. "Let's go have some fun." Jessy insisted. "I like fun. What's your plan?" Zac asked. "Leave a note for the others." Jessy mumbled grabbing paper and pen, 'Sis, Taylor, Sarah and Isaac. I napped and I'm raring to go, so.... I took Zac and we're headed to Battle Zone, if you got any guts, come join us. Jessy and Zac.' she wrote. "Jessy what is Battle Zone?" Zac asked looking not too enthused. "Oh come on Zac you'll love it, I know you will. Laser Quest is for kids and Battle Zone is for the few, the brave, the guy trying to impress a girl." Jessy teased. "No you mean the girl trying to impress a guy." Zac teased back. "Oh you are good. You game?" Jessy asked and the two headed out towards the waterfront where on a huge warehouse was the sign, Battle Zone for the Few, the Proud, the Certifiable and Zac started laughing as they parked and made their way inside. They were having a blast when the others showed up and soon the guys were the ones having a great time and the girls were left in the arcade where Jessy just grumbled. "Okay spit it out, I can't take another groan." Chele insisted. "It's just we were having a great time before you guys showed up and now he doesn't have the time of day for me. I guess it's a good thing, at least now I know where I rate. She's okay until my real friends show up." Jessy complained. "Whoa Sis. Where'd that come from? This is Zac Hanson we're talking about." Chele asked. "So what." Jessy said, adding, "I'm changing." "That was my sister, right?" Chele asked totally shocked by the attitude and really thrown for a loop when Jessy returned. Instead of the I'm okay and I don't care look, her blouse wasn't tucked in, it was tucked under in the back and tied in the front. Instead of a pony tail, her long blonde hair cascaded down her back past her waist where her bellbottom jeans seemed to be riding lower. "Like she doesn't care, look at her Sarah. Have you ever seen Jessy caring to look like a girl?" Chele asked. "Not in the three years I've known you two." Sarah replied. "Hey where's Jessy? I came to see if she wanted to play too." Zac asked. "Sorry Zac, you're a little late. She's already decided you didn't want to play with her anymore so she changed, I think she's in the coffee shop." Chele answered and watched as Zac considered changing and heading after Jessy or returning to play with his brothers. "I guess I've had enough too. I'm going to change. If she comes back tell her for me okay?" Zac asked. "Sure Zac. I think I'll go get something to drink too. See you over there. Sarah you want anything?" she asked. "No I better practice, Isaac said he was going to whoop me at this and I hate to lose." Sarah said returning to the game. "You'll never guess who I just saw?" Chele teased. "Ha ha." Jessy replied. "Sis he came back to see if you wanted to play and when I said you had decided he didn't want to play with you, Jessy he's in changing right now instead of going back to play with his brothers. And here you sit all I don' t care like when I know you're heart must be doine flip flops over the fact he chose you and not them." Chele explained. "Sis he turned me into a girl. Look at me caring what I look like, trying to look sexy all because of him." Jessy complained. "I say it's about damn time." Chele insisted, adding, "You're on the wrong side of the booth, he's left handed right?" "Oh you are so good at all this and I haven't a clue." Jessy said switching sides with her. "Sis just be yourself. Any guy would be lucky to catch your eye, even Zac Hanson. Speak of the little devil." Chele said noticing Zac entering the room. "Hey Jessy, Chele. What's up?" Zac asked sliding in beside Jessy, adding, "Wow your hair is as long as my mom's I think. It's really pretty Jessy. Why didn't I notice before?" "Zac I usually just twist it and knot it on top of my head, sometimes a ponytail. I usually just don't take the time with it." Jessy explained and soon the two were deep in conversation, "So why you sitting her alone?" Taylor teased. "I'm saved, another living soul. Thank you for coming." Chele rejoiced. "Very funny Sis. Hey Tay, be careful she sounds a little looney to me." Jessy warned. "Yeah, watch it bro. Sitting right here with us and screaming she's all alone." Zac teased, laughing with Jessy. "As long as you're up I never ordered and I'd love a cappucino please." Jessy asked and Taylor headed to the coffee bar and ordered. "Hun why don't you give him a hand they use really big cups." Jessy suggested. "Sure babe, want anything else?" Zac asked rising. "A cookie if they're fresh baked." Jessy asked. "Me too. They bake great cookies here." Chele asked. "He is so nice. Sis help me catch his eye. I care, I really do." Jessy pleaded for her help. "Sis I don't think you need help catching his eye, he hasn't taken it off you yet. If you look, smile at him then look back at me." Chele shared and Jessy did just that. "Wow you were right, Sis he's staring at me." Jessy said all smiles. "It's about time someone mattered. Jessy I'm so happy for you." Chele beamed at her sister's first infatuation. "Jessy. Babe come here a minute?" Zac called to her and she slid for the booth and headed his way, his eyes opened wide at the vision she was. "What Zac?" Jessy asked noticing a couple in the background holding hands, and she slipped her left hand in his right hand, then placing her right hand on his bicep. "Babe the sugar cookies are the only fresh baked and you asked for chocolate chips." Zac explained. "Sugar cookies are okay Zac. That's so sweet of you to ask." Jessy replied kissing his cheek as he ordered the cookies. They gazed into each other's eyes as they waited for the order, then returning to the booth where the four enjoyed getting to know each other better and Jessy watched her sister catch and keep the eye of Taylor Hanson. "Look at those two." Chele said pointing at Isaac and Sarah walking their way hand in hand. "Zac do you guys want to stay at my place tonight?" Jessy asked. They sat talking and decided to head back to the studio to find a change of clothes for the guys since they hadn't planned on staying. They called home, deciding they would join Jessy meeting with Chris. Jessy frantically wrote out her telephone number at the house, "Mom here's the number we'll be at if you need us or just miss us. We're taking the girls to dinner at Planet Hollywood and a movie but after that we should be at that number Mom." Zac explained. "Zac you sound so happy. She must be special son." Diana shared. "She is mom, very special. She makes me laugh and she is so easy to talk to, just like you. I think her hair may even be longer than yours right now. She forgets and sits on it then squeals, it's so cute." Zac explained. "I'm so glad you thinks it's cute I hurt myself and squeal." Jessy teased slipping onto his lap. "Hang on a minute Mom, I have to apologize. Baby I didn't mean I think it's cute you get hurt, you know that. It's cute you forget how long your hair is Jessy." Zac apologized kissing her sweetly. "It's so cute, you apologized. Zac I know you didn't mean it that way, you're way to nice to hurt someone's feelings like that." Jessy shared kissing him back deeply. "Jessy." Zac moaned. "Hun you were on the phone, remember?" Jessy reminded him and he picked up the phone, "Back Mom." Zac said turning red. "She sounds so sweet son. Jessy right?" Diana asked. "Yeah Mom her name is Jessy and she's beautiful, really, really nice and so talented. And you know what, she's like three weeks younger than me Mom. We have so much in common." Zac shared. "I'm glad son, so glad." Diana said and they chatted a little more before they finished picking out clothes and loaded up heading to Jessy's place, stopping at Sarah's so she could pack for the night also. At home they assigned rooms, or tried, "I say Sarah takes the guest room and then the we can have you stay with us." Chele suggested. "Any complaints Sarah?" Isaac asked. "Me share my room with you huh? I think I can handle that." Sarah answered wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him deeply. "Zac why don't you go put your clothes away, I'm going to check messages." Jessy said and Zac disappeared down the hall and returned to his brothers, Sarah and Chele still staring at him. "What? I'm not dead and I'm all for sleeping with Jessy again." Zac shared for the shock value. "All settled in hun?" Jessy asked as the next message started, "Jessy it's Will, Prince William remember? I was wondering if I came along to view the proofs, would you let me take you to lunch or dinner? If you would, call me back or e-mail me, okay? I really enjoyed meeting you. Hope I can talk my father into letting me come. Hope to hear from you. Later." the message ended and Jessy picked up the phone and dialed, "Prince Charles please, this is Jessy and I need to speak with him regarding Prince William." Jessy called and informed him of Prince William's call. "I felt I should let you know seeings we had come to an agreement regarding our being seen together. I don't appreciate being put in this position." Jessy explained and they talked for quite a while, "Sis there will be another bonus coming. Seems Prince William is to do what he says, not what his father has done." Jessy shared. "Sis the proofs turned out really good, even I thought, oh never mind what I thought." Chele shared turning red. "Oh so we think the little Prince is a hottie now huh?" Taylor teased. "Hottie? Dear he's a little young for me to be think that way, I was going to say I thought he looked human, ordinary, like one of the gang not untouchable or unreachable." Chele explained. "That's what I was hired to do, at least I've earned my snitch bonuses." Jessy said listening to the rest of the messages. "Hun you going to get cleaned up now or later?" she asked. "I feel like a nice hot shower now." Zac decided. "I'll come with you and make sure you find everything hun." Jessy said taking the hand he extended and they disappeared down the hall and she returned with his boots, grabbing the polish and sitting to work on his boots. "What?" she asked noticing the stares. "Slept with you already?" Chele asked. "Yes." Jessy answered. "And?" she asked. "He laid down with me and I feel asleep while we were talking about the guys' folks anniversary present. Schedule it, for Zac I'll do it." Jessy admitted. "Great. I love having a little brother." Taylor exclaimed. "A little brother who captured her heart. To Zac." Isaac proclaimed. "You guys going to get cleaned up or what? If they won't take care of you, let me know." Jessy warned. "Come on baby, let's get ready to celebrate finding the best anniversary present ever." Taylor asked wrapping an arm around Chele and they headed down the hall with Isaac and Sarah right behind.
