18. anniversary

(you'll be playing the song later in the chapter)

Time skip till the end of the school year...

(What happened during that time skip)
So it turned out I wasn't pregnant. I started birth control right after that whole thing happened so now we're good. Things with Zion are still going great. We've officially been together for 8 months. Basically the whole school year. It's finally summer and now I get to relax! In the fall, I'm moving out of my dorm, and into an apartment with Ava. We didn't like staying in a dorm, we wanted more freedom, so we saved up for a 2 bedroom apartment. I hadn't seen Zion for 3 weeks. We facetimed and stuff but I needed to study for finals and he always distracted me.

...

Today was the day I finally finished all my finals and it was also our 8 month anniversary. However Zion never texted or called about it. So i figured he forgot.

Zion pulled up to the front of the school and I got into the car

"Hey" he says while I get in the car. I ignore him

"Hello??" he says

"What do you want?" I say crossing my arms

"Calm down girl, I picked you up, I can easily drop you back off" he says and I open the door and get out.

"Stop stop I was just kidding! Come back" he says

"Zion" I say "You know what today is?"

"The last day of school?" he says and I roll my eyes and close the door and start walking away.
He gets out the car and runs to me. He runs up in front of me and grabs my hands and I pull them back and he grabs them again with more grip

"Smalls, you didn't think I forgot did you?" he says and I look up at him

"Our 8 month anniversary" he says kissing my forehead

"I got something planned" he says "Now come back to the car" and I roll my eyes and follow him back to the car. But how do I know he didn't just remember right now.

"Look in the back seat" he says and I look back. There was a bouquet of roses and my dance bag. I grabbed the roses and smiled.

"Why the bag?" I say

"I put clothes in there for you" he says

"For what?" I say

"We're going to Malibu" he says

"You for real?" I say

"Yes brat. For you. For us getting to 8 months. Even tho it's felt like a million years" he says

"Aww. thank you baby" I say placing a kiss on his cheek since he was driving

"Yeah I'm expecting a lil more than that when we get there" he says and I laugh. At a red light he handed me a plastic bag with snacks in it. I ate the snacks and we drove about an hour to Malibu. He pulls up to a house right on the beach.

"Here we are" he says and I run out the car

"It's on the beach?!" I say excitedly and he nods his head. I run up to him and hug him
