A depressed abused girl with health issues is close to Zach but when he leaves to peruse his dream, they grow apart. They both miss each other, but they're both also very stubborn. They reconnect but it turns out to be a good thing and a bad thing...
"Ok, so Zach I know you probably don't wanna hear this, but when Mekayla walked in I saw a bunch of bruises on her neck that she tried to cover up," I quietly blurted out.
Zach looked pissed, but then pulled out hit phone and made a phone call. When Zach took his phone call to his room, thirty seconds later, he ran out the door, and we were all in shock. We've never seen Zach so mad about something, but it was about Mekayla and if you ask us, she's his soft spot. He loves talking about her and whenever someone brings her up, his eyes grow ten times bigger from all the excitement. He doesn't know that we know but he sings her songs in the shower, loudly and he watches there old videos and photos with his door locked. He doesn't know that his feelings for Mekayla are that obvious, but it's kinda cute, the way his cheeks get really really red😂.
Zach texted the band group chat (like hours later😂), apologizing for leaving so quickly and he told us that he was gonna stay with Mekayla tonight. Jack made a disgusting smirky comment which caused Zach to send the eye-rolling emoji. We all knew where Zach went after about ten minutes or so, so when we got the text we just looked at each other trying not to laugh because he felt really bad for leaving so fast.
Mekayla's POV
My phone was repeatedly going off because I was getting so many text messages. I grabbed my phone and I just froze at the sight of who was texting me.
Zach happened to look over at me and we both sat up as tears started rolling down my face. He looked at me with a concerned look and I quickly looked away. He grabbed my chin making me look at him and had that same look on his face.
"Hey, what's wrong," Zach asked concernedly. "......Um, it's n-nothing," I said while wiping my tears. "I know you're lying to me, you must've forgotten that I'm the only person that can ALWAYS tell when your lying," he said. "I-it's n-nothing, I promise," I said while giving him a fake smile. "Quit lying to me and tell me what's wrong before I lose all my sanity," Zach said sounding slightly angry, but calm. "My p-phone started b-blowing up with text m-messages and when I looked to see who it was, it was...h-him," I said trying not to cry. He grabbed my phone and unlocked it only to see this...

Zach's POV
When Mekayla told me that Todd was texting her, my entire body started tightening up. After she told me what he did to her, I hated him, and the fact that he was texting and threatening her pissed me off. I put her ringer on silent and tossed her phone on the other side of the couch and held Mekayla as she cried herself to sleep in my arms.
She was so shaken up that it hurt me to know that I had to leave her tomorrow. We had a few meetings to go to, and Peyton had an audition, so she was gonna be alone all day.
I decided to tell her in the morning, I couldn't possibly handle seeing her cry anymore today. I was already pissed, but I had to be strong for her. I carried her to her room and put her under the covers. When I let her go she quickly grabbed my shirt and gave me a terrified look.
"...Z-zach, I'm scared," she stuttered scarily. "I know baby, but I'm right here, nobody's gonna hurt you on my watch," I reassured her. I laid down next to her and she laid her head on my chest and fell asleep again while I played with her hair and rubbed her back. I always loved our moments together because she was my closest friend, but I loved her and I wanted us to be more than friends, but she's been through so much, I don't want to ruin our friendship.
I drifted off to sleep and ended up dreaming about something that left me speechless the next morning...
