After making my bed, I went downstairs in Zach's shirt and a pair of shorts I left here. I heard my dad talking to someone in the kitchen, but I didn't know who it was.
"Hey dad." I greeted as I walked in. It was Ian's dad, Mike. "Angel! It's so nice to see you!" He smiles and gets up to hug me. "Hi!" I smiled. We and Mike were close when Ian and I were together, but by obvious reasons we haven't talked in forever. "So I heard you have a son now?" He questioned. "Yep, and his name is Noah." I smiled. "Is he awake?" I asked my dad. "Yep, he's watching cartoons in the living room." He told me. "Okay." I said as I grabbed a flavored water from the fridge. Making my way to the living room, I heard giggles. Peeking into the living room, I saw Zach was playing with Noah on the ground. "Zach!" I exclaimed and ran to hug him. "Baby!" He exclaimed and hugged me back.
"Oh my god I missed you." I softly said as I sat down beside him. Mike and my dad joined us in the living room. "Oh! Zach, you know my dad but this is my ex's dad, Mike." I said as I laid my head on Zach's shoulder. "Hi." Zach smiled as he continued to play with Noah. "So I'm taking it this is your husband." Mike smiles. "Boyfriend." I smiled. "Fiancé soon." Zach laughed. I jokingly rolled my eyes and Zach wrapped his arm around my waist, still playing with our son. "We should get another dog." Zach randomly says as my dad and Mike exit the room.
"We should, I miss Luna." I laughed. Vivian appeared from the stairwell. "Hey!" I smiled. "Vivian, this is my boyfriend. Zach, this is my brother's girlfriend, Vivian." I introduced. "Hi!" She waved and walked into the kitchen.

"Hey dad? I'm taking Zach to the park, can you watch Noah?" I asked dad as I got the keys to my old car. "Yeah, have fun!" He exclaimed. I nodded and lead Zach to my high school self's car. We got in and I sat there for a minute. I haven't been in the car in years, and it's still the same. No ones been in it, Vivian didn't let anyone, and it still has my school bag in the back. I grabbed it and opened it.
"Is this my math homework?" I laughed as I pulled out my binder. "Yup, It is." I loudly laughed and stuffed the paper back into the binder. My clarinet was still in the back seat. "We should stop by the school." I realized. "I'm down, I just want to see where you grew up." Zach smiles. I nod and set the bag in the back. I started the car and drove towards the school. After a while, we pulled into the school parking lot. It was during school hours, but my teachers always accepted old students. We walked into the main office.
"Angel? Is that you?" Mrs Owens asked. "It sure is!" I smiled as I signed in for both me and Zach. "How have you been?" She asked as she came around the desk and hugged me. "I'm okay, I have a son now." I smiled at her as we pulled away and her eyes landed on Zach. Her and I have always been close because I stayed after school sometimes to help her. We organized papers and made sure everything was ready for the next day. "Oh really! Is this the father?" She asked as she smiled at him. "Yep!" I replied as I pulled up a photo of Noah and Zach together. She smiled as she looked at the photo. "I've missed you!" She smiled as I put my phone away. "I've missed you too! We're actually looking at vacation houses down here, we live in LA." I told her as Zach looked around. "Well, I'm going to visit my teachers, I'll stop back in when I'm finished!" I excitedly told her as I grabbed Zach's hand. "Okay, Bye!" She waved as we walked out the door and into the main hall way. I lead Zach to my 9th grade honors English class. I knocked on the door and my teacher, Mr. Tom, opened it. "Angel!" He smiles and leads me inside. "Perfect timing! I was just talking about people's futures and previous students!" He smiled and lead me and Zach to the front of the room. "Oh my god is that Zach Herron?" I heard some girl say. I chuckled at her comment. "Hot damn who is that?" Some girl asked towards Zach. I'm guessing Zach heard it because he unlinked our hands and put his arm around me.
"Everyone this is a previous student of mine that I brought up earlier, Angel." He introduced and moved out of the way. Zach smiled and let go of me to stand next to my teacher on the side of the room.
"Hey! I'm Angel. Um, I went to this school four years ago. It was possibly one of the best years of my life and I met many friends that I'm still friends with to this day, so make your high school years your best years!" I spoke. "Are you still friends with Taaliya?" Mr. Tom asked. "Yep! She's actually married now. She's married to one of Zach's band mates." I laughed and walked over to him. Mr. Tom looked up the band name on the computer and looked at a picture of the boys. He looked back at Zach, and then the picture. Zach was holding Noah in his arms and I was beside him. "And who may this be?" He joked. "That's our son, Noah." I answered as I heard the class get a bit too loud.
"Quiet down!" Mr. Tom exclaimed as the door opened. "Speaking of Taaliya Marais." I laughed as she walked in. "Angel! I've been looking for you! Mrs Owens freaked when I walked in." She laughed as she hugged me. "Hey little sis." Jonah joked as he hugged me. "Hey big bro." I joked. "Taaliya!" Mr. Tom exclaimed and hugged her also. "Well isn't this a surprise." Mr. Tom said as Jonah wrapped his arm around Taaliya's shoulder.

After visiting all of our old teachers, we made our way outside. "Hey!" I greeted the rest of the guys. "I didn't know you guys were coming." Zach laughed as he hugged Jack. "We don't have to be back for like another two weeks so we decided, let's go for it!" Jack exclaimed. I hugged Hailey and Daniel. "Zach and I were planning on going to the park, you guys are welcome to join." I told them as I pulled away. They all looked at Zach, but I stared at my school. "Um, that's okay. I planned on taking Jonah to my old house since my parents moved. Can you believe they still live in the neighborhood but moved houses? It makes no sense." Taaliya jokes. I slowly nodded and looked at the rest of them. "We're visiting family friends." Daniel quickly said. A little too fast...
"Okay? I take it no one wants to go to the park?" I asked. "I'm sorry, Angel. We can text in the group chat." Hailey said as she threw a gum wrapper at my head. "Shut up, Hailey." I laughed and threw it back. "Well, we should get going."
