Vanessa Hudgens turned over in her bed and looked at the clock on her bedside table. It read ten thirty AM. She sighed happily knowing that her boyfriend, Zac was coming home after filming a movie in Australia for three months today. Vanessa got up and picked out her outfit and went into the bathroom to take a shower. Twenty minutes later, Vanessa emerged from the bathroom with her hair in natural curls and light makeup. She picked up her bag then left her apartment to go pick up Zac. Vanessa drove to the airport and parked her car. She walked to the arrival gate that Zac would be coming from and sat down anxiously. The loudspeaker announcement had said that Zac's flight just landed so Vanessa stood up and scanned the terminal for him. She finally saw Zac coming through the door and she ran through groups of people to reach him. Once Zac saw her running over, he dropped his luggage and opened his arms as she ran into them. Vanessa hugged him tightly and wrapped her legs around his waist. She finally looked up at him and smiled.

"Hi" Vanessa said happily as tears ran down her cheeks.

"Hi Van" Zac said smiling as he wiped his girlfriend's tears away.

Vanessa moved up in his arms and kissed Zac passionately on the lips. Zac kissed back and ran his fingers through Vanessa's curly brown hair.

"I missed you" Vanessa said as they walked to her car with their fingers entwined.

"God, I missed you too baby. So much" Zac said kissing her cheek.

Vanessa drove back to her apartment with Zac. She opened the door and pounced on him. Zac kissed her lips hard then moved to her neck. Vanessa moaned with passion as she kissed him. They both moved to her bedroom and shut the door as they made love into the early morning. The next day Zac and Vanessa were having a family dinner with Zac's parents in honor of him being on a break of his movie. They both drove to Zac's childhood home and got out of the car. Zac rang the doorbell and was greeted by his mother, Starla Efron.

"Zachary David Alexander Efron! Come here and give your mother a hug" Starla said as Zac went over to her and gave her a hug and a kiss.

Vanessa greeted the Efron family and they all sat in the living room. They talked about how everything in their lives and about Zac's upcoming movie.

"When do you go back?" Dylan, Zac's seventeen year old brother asked.

"I have to go back in a week. I will be home three weeks after that" Zac said as he put his arm around Vanessa.

Vanessa didn't want him to go back because she would miss him a lot. She curled up into Zac's embrace and kissed his cheek. Zac smiled and entwined their fingers together. They both saw that it was getting late so they said goodbye to the Efron's and drove home. Zac opened the door and Vanessa kissed him softly. Zac picked her up and carried her into the bedroom and shut the door behind them. A week later, Zac had to fly back to Australia to continue filming his movie. That morning, Zac woke up next to Vanessa and smiled. He took in her facial features and knew it was going to be hard to leave her again. Vanessa started to stir and opened her eyes.

"Are you ready to go?" Vanessa asked him.

"Yeah, the car is going to pick me up in about fifteen minutes" Zac said smiling and wiping the stray hairs out of his girlfriend's eyes.

"Oh okay" Vanessa said softly.

Fifteen minutes later, the doorbell rang signaling that Zac had to leave. Vanessa got out of bed and helped her boyfriend with his bags as she got the door. Zac gave the driver his bags and he turned around to look at Vanessa.

"I love you" Zac said.

"I love you too, be safe" Vanessa said as she hugged him tightly.

"I will" Zac said.

Zac leaned in and kissed Vanessa goodbye as tears fell down her face. Zac pulled away and wiped her tears.

"See you in a couple weeks, babe. I will call you when I get in" Zac said.

"Okay" Vanessa said.

Zac walked down the driveway and got into the car. The car drove away and Vanessa shut the door. She wiped her tears away and sat on the couch. Vanessa called her sister, Stella to see if she wanted to hang out and also get her mind off of Zac.

"Hello?" Stella asked answering her phone.

"Hey Stella, what are you up to today?" Vanessa asked.

"Not much. Want to hang out today? I know Zac left today" Stella said.

Vanessa released more silent tears as she looked out the window. She was proud of Zac but she wanted to be with him too.

"Van? Hello?" Stella asked.

"Huh? Oh sorry, Stella. Yeah I want to hang out. I will pick you up in an hour" Vanessa said trying to sound happy.

The two sisters hung up and Vanessa went to go take a shower and get ready to go out with Stella. An hour later, Stella rang the doorbell of Vanessa's apartment. Vanessa ran to get it and hugged Stella tightly.

"Hey, hey don't cry Van. He will be home in a couple weeks" Stella said trying to comfort her sister.

"I know, I just miss him and want him to be home" Vanessa said softly as she wiped her tears away.

The two girls decided to watch a movie. They snuggled together on the couch until the credits started rolling. Stella left after the movie and promised that they would hang out in a couple days. Vanessa closed the door after saying goodbye to her sister. She heard her phone ring and ran to get it. She looked at the caller ID and smiled.

"Hey, how was your flight?" Vanessa asked her boyfriend.

"It was normal, no casualties. How are you?" Zac asked.

"I'm okay, but I miss you" Vanessa said truthfully.

"I know, sweetie. I miss you too. I will be home before you know it, though" Zac said.

"Yeah, I'm exhausted so I probably should go to bed" Vanessa said.

"Okay, baby. I love you, Vanessa" Zac said.

"I love you too, Zac" Vanessa said.

They both hung up and Vanessa realized this is how her relationship was going to be forever. She fell asleep and dreamt of Zac.
