"zach you're taking a long ass time!" jack said as he knocked on the bathroom door.

i hummed as i continued to comb gel through my hair, "five more minutes."

"you said that five minutes ago" he groaned.

zach opened the door as he continued to brush his fingers through his hair, "this doesn't just happen, jack."

jack scoffed as he shook his head, "you sound like my sisters."

"rude" zach said in a high pitched voice as he walked towards the living room.

zach looked around, "did you see my converse in here?"

"nada" jack said as he looked around.

zach sighed as he walked over towards the coat closet, "well, i guess i'm wearing something else."

zach's known for losing things, his mom stopped giving him a lot of money after losing two hundred dollars at the mall.

it was an accident.

"zach, they're under the couch" jack said as he pulled out the shoes.

zach smiled as he closed the door, "thank you."

jack and i walked in to jimmy john's.

both of us ordered and we sat down in a booth quietly.

"so, do you like gabbie?" zach asked as he took a drink of his mountain dew.

jack glanced at me, "nope, just friends."

zach nodded, and jack took a bite of his sandwich, "why?"

"no reason, just wondering if it was a date or not"  zach said before taking a bite of his sandwich.

jack shook his head, "nope just friends getting pizza."

"you never know, two people sitting at a table, could be anything" zach shrugged.

jack nodded his head, "so even this could possibly be a date?"

"c-could be," zach shrugged as he felt the heat rise in his cheeks as he glanced away and back to jack.

jack seemed amused as he watched zach.

"like you said, 'two people sitting at a table, could be anything'" jack said before taking a drink.

zach quickly reached for his phone, "is there anyone you are interested in?"

jack seemed to be thinking, "there is someone."

"do you mind telling me who?" zach was now even more interested in this mystery person.

it could be a boy or a girl since jack is bisexual.

"yes i do mind actually" jack smiled innocently before messing with his straw.

zach scoffed, "come on jack, you knew who i used to like."

"used? oh no more daniel james seavey?" jack asked as he glanced up at me, "no more daniel james seavey" zach confirmed.

jack nodded, "so anyone new?"

"yeah, i guess you could say that" zach said as began to tap his foot.

jack looked down at his feet, "same time?"

"sure" zach nodded.

three...

two...

one...

jack said, "jack robert avery" and zach kept quiet as he stared at jack.

"damn you're such a cheater, didn't even say anything" jack shook his head as he began to laugh.

zach sat up straight, "you said your own name!"

"at least i said something!" jack smiled and zach couldn't help but smile back.

jack also sat up, "zachary dean herron."

"what?" zach blinked as he stopped smiling, feeling a more serious mood fill the little booth.

"that's who i like, your turn."
