"Zac? Are you sure?" Taylor asked.
"Very. Besides, it's time for us to do something like this. Don't you guys wanna go on tour?" He said like nothing had happened.
"Of course Zac. But what about you?....and...Spa..."
"Me and Sparkle..." He said quietly.
"Me and Sparkle...are over." He finished.
"But Zac.."
"Taylor, it has to be this way. I choose this. Music is the most important thing to me." He said. Taylor of course knew the truth. He knew very well that Sparkle was the most important thing to him. He was just too hurt to see the truth. He knew it was too late to make Zac realize that though. He had made his decision. Now, it was life what awaited for them.
"Home, Sweet, Home." Sparkle said as she laid on her couch comfortably and sighing. She closed her eyes and slowly doozed off into a sleep.
Minutes later someone rang the doorbell which awoke her. She opened the door to see that it was her dad.
"Dad..." She was found dumbfounded. It had been months since she'd seen her father. Now, he was here. In front of her eyes, the same.
"Sparkle..." He hugged her immediately. She tried to shed tears of happiness but she couldn't.
"Oh my God, how much I've missed you sweety." He said as he let go of her.
"Where's the rest of the clang?" Sparkle didn't answer. She still couldn't believe that her dad was standing right in front of her. Her dad realized that she looked hurt and surprised.
"Sweety, I'm really sorry that I took so long on returning. I called and left messages... Didn't you get any of them?"
"No." She finally spoke.
"Oh. Well I'm here and forever sweety." He hugged her again as he assured her....the truth. This time around, he was going to stay with the family forever.
"Daddy.." SHe hugged him and this time, she did cry.
"Well let me go get settled in and check on your brother." He got his bags and went upstairs.
Sparkle turned and watched him go up the stairs. She started to close the door behind her as someone stopped it.
"Sparkle..." Zac. It was Zac. It was Zac's voice. She opened the door and cried more as she saw him.
"Zac..." She hugged him. But Zac quickly made her get off.
"What's wrong?"
"We need to talk." He sat down and so did she. He looked at her for a long time, but to Sparkle this stare could last forever and she wouldn't get bored.
"Sparkle, I'm here to say....Goodbye." So this is what LizBeth was talking about. She finally had gotten it.
"Goodbye?" She said in a whisper.
"Yes. Goodbye. My brothers and I had decided to go on tour. We're off to make the album and then comes the tour..." Sparkle got up and turned her back to Zac.
"Sparkle, I just wanted to say goodbye for the last time. We probably won't see each other for a very long time." The truth is what he spoke.
"Zac, you can't do this to me." Sparkle pleaded.
"What? I can do whatever I want. It's you who..." He paused.
"You know what Sparkle...I'm not going to fight with you. I'm tired of fighting. I don't need this." Sparkle let tears run down. Zac started to feel sympathy.
"Don't cry Sparkle. I love you. But we need this break." He wiped off her tears as she smiled and touched his hands with hers.
"I love you too Zac." They looked up at each others eyes...and kissed. The kiss was magical to both of them, and yet it was soft and gentle. Zac hugged her when the finished and placed his face in her neck. She smelled so good. He was going to miss her dearly.
"Zac... Don't go."
"I have to. I'm sorry." He let go of her and kissed one more time... and for the last time.
"Zac.."
"I love you Sparkle." He let go of her and walked towards the door. He opened it and smiled at her as he left and left for the last time.
