I Never Meant To Hurt Anyone.

Chapter 7

We had about 6 beers each and now we were on vodka shots. I was feeling really tipsy and Brian looked quite drunk but he had lasted a lot longer than I thought he would have. We ordered the next round of shots. I think this was about our fifth.

"OK. Ready on 3." He slurred whilst we both picked up the shot. "1, 2, 3" as he said it we both downed the shot. I could feel the liquid burn the back of my throat as it went down and I must have pulled a funny face as Brian was laughing at me.

"What was that face for?" He giggled out. He almost resembled a girl.

"That one really burned." I slurred out.

"Ha! You're drunk." He screamed and punched the air as he thought he had won our challenge.

"If I remember correctly you started slurring about 10 minutes ago." I said whilst pointing my finger.

"So I lost." He said whilst pouting his lips. I couldn't help but laugh at that face and he said I pulled funny faces.

"I'm afraid you did and I won!" I screamed the last part out because I was happy that I was right. Then I felt someone touch my arm. I turned round to see Zacky. My stomach dropped as I realised I had spent the whole night with Brian instead of Zacky. I felt terrible.

"We are going now. Are you coming or are you going stay even longer with him?" He spat out. He couldn't even say Brian's name. I felt Brian tense up by the side of me and even though I had only just met Brian I could tell that angered him. I could understand why Zacky was so mad.

"Yeah, I'm coming." I said and out of the corner of my eye I saw Brian's face drop. He now resembled the person he was earlier. I now felt bad for leaving Brian. I just couldn't win. "I will be out in a minute. Wait outside for me." I asked whilst giving him my best puppy dog face. He nodded his head and I reached up to his lips and gave him a quick peck.  

"Thanks." I said as he left me alone with Brian.

"Hey! Why have you gone back to being all depressed?" I asked

"Because he's got the one thing that I can never have and he doesn't even appreciate it." He said in a quite voice.

"What's that then?" I asked because I didn't get it. I looked at him puzzled. He got up from his bar stool and came closer to where I was standing. He bent down so our faces were level with one another. Then he came even closer to me which I didn't think was possible. He tucked my blond hair behind my ear and I could feel his hot breath lingering there.

"You." he whispered into my ear. It sent shivers down my spine. My whole body tingled with excitement. He returned to normal height and walked away from me. I just stood there flustered and confused. I didn't know that there was something for him as well. It's weird how I have been single all this time and then two guys come along at once. What are the chances?

I walked out of club and looked for Zacky. I couldn't see him so I assumed he hadn't waited for me. I knew he was mad but I thought we could at least talk it over on the way home. I started to walk home but then I felt a pair of arms snake around the waist. I looked down to see the arms were covered in tattoos and I realised it was Zacky.

"So you are now leaving me again." Zacky said rather bluntly.

"That's funny I thought you left me." I joked back even though I was being serious. I turned round so I faced Zacky. His eyes looked hurt and I felt really guilty. "Look, I'm sorry about tonight. I know I was meant to be with you and everyone but I felt sorry for him." I admitted hoping that he would forgive me.

"Why do you feel sorry for him? The guy is a complete asshole when it comes to people. He will only use you and then move on thats what he has been like for the past two years. I don't want you getting hurt." Zacky protested. I knew that may be the truth but I also knew there was more to Brian but I let the subject drop. I didn't want to argue about it.
