three.

Tessa's POV

After eating breakfast with Brandon, Edwin, and Austin, I decided I should probably go home. I cleaned my dish then walked upstairs in Nicks room. When I walk in Nick's shirtless and only wearing boxers, and he's looking in his closet.

"Put some clothes on" I say grabbing my bag

"Oops" Nick says and grabs some sweatpants and slips them on right away

"I'm gonna get going" I say

"By yourself?" Nick says

"Yeah?" I say confused

"Chris hasn't tried contacting you or anything?" Nick says and I look at my phone

"No..." I say looking down and Nick comes and hugs me

"I guess he doesn't care" I say and I grab my bag

"It's whatever" I say "I'll talk to you later. Bye" I say going to the door when Zion walks in. He hovered over me. Not going to lie, I've really been thinking he's hot. I don't know why.

"Where ya going?" he says

"My apartment" I say

"Bet I'll come" Zion says and Nick raises an eyebrow

"Okay" I say

"You just said you'd be fine alone" Nick says

"Oh yeah" I say and Zion interrupts

"Well she didn't say no so let's go" he says walking out the door. I go up to Nick and hug him

"Love you. Thanks for letting me stay and letting me talk. Means a lot. I'll text you later maybe we can go out or something" I say and he nods. He seemed kind of mad that Zion was going with me. But I know Nick doesn't have feelings for me.

Nick's POV

Somethings up with me. I don't know why I'm feeling so jealous. I know deep down I've always had feelings for Tessa. But now that she's out of that horrible relationship, there's nothing I want more than her. But I don't think she feels the same way. Zion's a good guy. I shouldn't get in between them...

Back to Tessa's POV

As I'm driving home with Zion, he sings for me, it was really cute. We pulled up to my apartment and we went inside.

"I haven't been here in so long. You're always going to the prettymuch house" he says and I laugh

"Yeah" I say setting my keys on the counter and going to put my bag in my room. I come back and Zions sitting on the couch. I go and sit next to him

"You need to talk abut anything?" he says

"No not really. I talked to Nick. He helped a lot" I say

"Best friend goals" he says and I laugh

"I mean y'all are like brothers so that's even more goals" I say and he laughs. There was an awkward silence

"Hasn't just been us two in a while, huh?" he says

"Yeah..." I say

"He hasn't tried calling you?" Zion asks

"Nope" I say

"Well now you know, he truly didn't care" he says and I nod. I start feeling sad thinking about all the bad things that happened with Chris and I. Zion places his hand on my thigh. I look down at his hand then back at him and he smiles

"Zion" I say

"Tessa" he says

"Take the pain away" I say and he stares into my eyes and crashes his lips into mine. I grab onto his dreads and he gently lays me down on the couch, so he's laying on me. We get into a pretty intense make out. I'm able to leave from under him and straddle him. He tugs my shirt asking if he can take it off and I nod. He takes my shirt off, leaving me in a bra. We keep making out as his hands move from my lower back to my hips, and he starts sucking on my neck. All of sudden, someone bursts through the door

"You fucking slut!" Chris yells and I jump off of Zion and grab my shirt to cover myself. Zion stands up

"She's not a slut" Zion says and Chris turns to me

"So first you always talking to Jersey Boy, and now you moved on to DreadHead!" Chris says

"Watch your mouth bro" Zion says

"Chris I told you we're over" I say "I'm tired of you"

"What the fuck did you say?" Chris says walking towards me, making me run into a wall

"Get away from her" Zion says grabbing Chris's arm and Chris throws a punch at him.

"No!" I yell

Zion and Chris start fighting. I was panicking and freaking out, that my first instinct was to call Nick. I only live about 5-10 minutes from them depending on how fast you were going. Nick told me he'd be there right away. Zion finally flipper Chris over and got on top of him and starts punching him left and right. He just keeps going for a good 25 seconds. Chris's face looked so bad.

"Zion stop!" I say pulling Zion off of him and Zion stands up out of breath. At this point I'm crying. Zion tried hugging me and I push him off of me

"You really hurt him!" I yell

"Are you serious?" Zion says "He was about to hurt you! You know how much hurt he's given you?" Zion says and I cover my face with my hands and keep crying. Chris pulls himself on the couch and wipes his face

"You just gonna let him do that to me? That's who you moved onto?" Chris says

"Shut the fuck up man I'm not tryna fight you twice" Zion says

"Zion stop" I say and give him ice

"Go in the room" I tell him

"I'm not leaving you alone" Zion says and then Nick walks in

"What the fuck" he says

"Oh Italian boy is here now?!" Chris says

"Imma about to beat the shit out of you again" Zion says and starts walking towards Chris but I push him back. Nick then starts arguing with Chris, because Zion is his boy. Then they all start arguing.

"Stop! All of you!" I yell "Leave just leave!". I walk up to Chris.

"I'm done with you. So don't ever call again. Don't come again. Bye" I say

"You're a fucking bitch. You're all going to regret this" he says and walks out the door, slamming it. Nick, Zion, and I stand there in silence.

"I want to be alone" I say

"Wait. What happened? Like how did this start?" Nick says confused

"I don't want to talk about it. Zion can tell you. I'm too stressed. I just want everyone to leave" I say sitting on the couch. They still stand there. I look at them then point to the door.

"I'm sorry Tessa. Hopefully we can continue where we left off" Zion says and walks out and Nick looks confused.

"Bye Tessa" Nick says, kind of confused as to what Zion meant, and he walks out.
