"Hey Wilbur..." Jack mumbled into the phone trying not to laugh.

The camera was still sitting on the hood of Wilbur's car.

"What did you do?" Wilbur immediately caught on.

"We are by your car..." Zana spoke happily.

"Why? What did you- We told you to meet us where we started!" Wilbur spoke extremely calmly, surprisingly, which caused both of the adults to look at each other.

"We will be there in a minute." Wilbur hung up the phone and got everyone together to leave.

They walked out of the park and to the car, seeing Zana and Jack standing there in towels.

"Oh my god! No they didn't!" Tommy shouted as he ran towards them with his camera.

"Well.. You see... It was Jack's idea." Zana spoke quickly.

"It was not!" He shouted in protest.

"Okay maybe it was both of our ideas." Zana shrugged while trying to contain her laughter.

Wilbur shook his head slowly as he was trying to hold in his laughter as well.

"I need to watch the footage back!" Tommy shouted before Wilbur stopped him until they got back to the flat.

Once they got back Tommy switched the SD card out and he got the footage on to his laptop.

By the end of watching Jack and Zana's point of view the group was in tears from how much they were laughing.

The group could also feel the chemistry and tension bouncing off of them throughout the video.

The random stares, the random touches, the random laughs and the random jokes.

The group saw it all, even the pair that were doing it noticed it.

Zana internally screamed when she saw the way Jack was looking at her.

She couldn't deny the attraction she saw in his eyes, and she couldn't deny the attraction in her own eyes.

As for Jack, he was panicking.

He saw the way she looked back, and there was no way that the fans wouldn't notice.

He didn't care about the fans caring about whether or not he and this woman look in love.

It was the fact that he saw her looking at him the same way.

There was absolutely no way that he could deny the attraction between them.

They weren't like the normal cliche magnets pulling toward each other.

It was a much greater force that is bringing them together.

Much like a wave being pulled back and forth against the current.

Jack looked over at Zana and saw her smiling.

His heart melted at the sight.

He had always felt attraction toward her, he had always thought she was pretty.

The twitter threads that they had in the past, and the random interactions aways drew Jack in.

And never once did he ever give himself false hope or give up.

They all sat in the living room making small talk about anything and everything.

Jack thought that Zana was quiet. Not as quiet as she normally would be.
