I regretted coming to the party the instant I came , as I saw Natalie standing beside a projector. Remote in hand , what was she up to. As if she was reading my mind - she turned it on. I looked at Zach, then the crowd of people that laughed. Then I looked at the only people that mattered. Rebecca grabbed the unplugged the projector, smashing it. Mac slapped her across the face. For a second I saw pain in her eyes , but I didn't care. Not this time. The thread of hope I had for or friendship was cut. I was over it. Then I looked at Zach. Was he in on it. What about the teddy bear agreement? I hope he could see the pain - the disappointment across my face , before i stormed out.

I could hear his footsteps behind me as I neared the sidewalk of the street hoping to see a cab. Someone I knew. Something.

" What ? stop following me !" I yelled - tears streaming down my face.

" She must've hacked my phone love , I promise I didn't send her. I'll make sure no one else has it... I don't want anyone else to have it." his was infront of me now. His hands shot up as he caressed my cheeks , wiping a stray tear from my eyes with his thumb. He wore his own frown on his face , sadness in his eyes. He never wanted to hurt me.

"I'd never hurt you" my head crashed into his chest as he hugged me.

" Come , i'll carry you home."

Mac & Becca were already seated in the backseat. No one uttered a word on the way home. When we finally arrived they headed in , leaving me alone with Zach.

" I'm sorry."

he said that already.

" So no teddy bear. No agreement. What now ?" I said , I could feel my heart slightly break.

Then he pulled out a box out his back pocket.

I gulped.

" I'm not asking you to marry me - not yet at least" he chuckled , " So breathe love"

I let go of the breath I never knew I was holding.

he opened the box to reveal a necklace , with a teddy bear pendant.

" Can I put it on ?" I nodded , turned around, lifting up my hair.

he put the necklace around my neck. At the back it had Izzy & Zach engraved.

" So for the real question" I looked up at him - gleaming.

" Will you be my girlfriend?"

I couldn't help the tear that fell from my eye , as i jumped into his arm.

I nodded , as I stuck my face between the crook of his neck.

"Use your words love." he positioned me - as he held me in his arms. So I was looking into his eyes.

" Yes - i'd love to be your girlfriend."

We spent the night in his car - talking , till he left to deal with the she-devil.

& me to explain everything to my friends.

The origin of the picture - the teddy bear agreement- the new necklace around my neck - my new relationship status. Everything. They were happy.

I changed into my pajamas -

clambering into bed as I waited for Zach to get back.
