Baby || Zach Dempsey

|||86|||

Zach looking down at me with worried expression Justin coming out as well "are you okay?" He asked I shake my head not being able to breath

he slowly put his hand on my arm again and slowly pulled me into a hug once I noticed I quickly wrapped my arms tightly around his torso crying into his chest he ran a hand down my hair holding me tight and close as if I would slip away

I calmed my breathing still crying and pulled away looking at Justin "I thought I was over it but they said my name and I kept listening to what they were saying and I just broke" I say wiping my eyes "kens you will never be over this Bryce broke you and you will forever be broken it may not seem like it but it's the truth" Justin said I nod

"but we'll always be here for you when you break" Zach said I look over at him and smile just now realizing Zach ran after me he still cares about me "thanks" I say I noticed the girls who were screaming being escorted out by police I take a deep breath

"you gonna be okay?" Justin asked me I nod "I think so" I say he nods pulling me into a  quick hug then walking back into the church I turn to Zach we both just awkwardly look at each other then at the ground

"so you and Alex?" He asked smirking  my eyes go wide that fucking snitch "what?" I ask shocked he laughed

"uh he likes you" Zach said I nod "oh um I didn't know that how exactly do you know that" I ask "he told me" he said

"told you what exactly?" I ask nervously biting my lip "he just asked if I would be mad If he asked you out" he said I nod and crossed my arms "and you said?" I question

"that I didn't care" he said I nod trying to hide my disappointment I was hoping he would of to Alex he would be pissed that would give me some hope that me and Zach would get back together and that was all just crushed right now

"hey guys were leaving now" I hear Alex say I snap my head over and walk away from Zach and follow Alex to where everyone else is "hey" Jess said I smile at her she puts a reassuring hand on my shoulder knowing exactly what I was going through

we all split off in our different cars  and drive to Bryces house I rode  with Justin and clay it was silent the whole way I played with the bottom of my black dress we pulled into the drive way we all sat there for a moment in silence before we all get out walking into the Walker home

"thanks for coming with me to this today" Justin said looking at me and Clay "no happy to do it for you" Clay said I nod in agreement

"hey you three welcome" Ani says walking up to us "Hey Ani" Justin spoke i cross my arms over my torso nervously looking around the place afraid something might trigger another freak out "do you mind if I steal Clay? We've got a project" Ani said

"I should probably stay with Justin and Kens" Clay said I look back over at the to hearing my name "I'm good I got kens" he said Clay looked at me then back to Justin "brilliant" "okay" Ani and Justin say quietly as they walk away Justin looks at me

"you okay?" He asked I nod "yeah" I say as we walk off together

we found ourselves upstairs in Bryces room "why did you start hanging out with Bryce again?" He asked looking around his room

"I started going with Alex when he would buy drugs from him and me and Bryce just talked more and I thought he was different he apologized him and Alex got in some fight and so I started hanging out with Bryce alone" I say shrugging he nods

"I never told Zach I hung out with him so if you could like keep it between" I say Justin looks at me "why didn't you tell him?" He asked

"because Zach is just so Zach he worries to much and would want to come and would make everything a problem" I say talking with my hands "well that's because he cares about you" he said

"if he cared about me so much he wouldn't have cheated" I say looking at the pictures Bryce has framed sitting on his shelf a sad smile comes on my face at the one of him Monty and Jeff

"it was a mistake and you know that plus he would of broken up with you anyways" Justin said i look away from the picture and over to him

"what?" I ask confused "yeah I mean once he realized you relapsed he would of broken up with you" he answered "I don't know what your talking about" I say shaking my head laughing "yeah you do I talked to Tony and Alex the other day" he said my eyes went wide I became angry

"seriously kens are you trying to kill yourself? What the fuck were you thinking" he said hurt and angry with me "yeah well I know you've relapsed too Monty told me" I say he shakes his head

"yeah but I'm not the one fucking almost overdosing then going out and doing more drugs with a guy she's just getting with to make her ex jealous" Justin said stepping closer to me

"I didn't do shit with Monty that night" I say pointing my finger at him "yeah right stop acting like such a slut and maybe I won't assume that" Justin scoffed

"fuck you" I quietly say my arms crossed as I stared at the ground tears about to fall "kens-" I didn't let him finish as I stormed out of the room wiping my eyes
