Jessica's POV

I felt someone try to wake me up, but I just groaned and tried to push them away. my head was pounding and the lights in the room were way too bright - who ever that is needs to turn these damned lights off.

"leave me" it actually hurt a lot to talk
"do you want this?" someone asked, who the fuck is in my room? and why are they shouting geez... I remembered the party last night, I turned to where I heard the voice and slowly opened my eyes. thank god, its only Zach.
"what?" I replied
"aspirin" why is he screaming?
"why are you yelling?" I asked and rubbed my head
"im not" he chuckled. ugh his voice was so loud
"why does my head hurt so much?" I asked, then I looked around "and why am I at your house?"
"you got drunk last night" drunk!
"what - what time is it?"
"umm 2pm" he shrugged
"fuck - I need to go home!" I stood up but my head ponded so feel right back on his bed
"I called your nana, and told her you were going out with me today - as friends" he said, still shouting
"oh my god, Zach talk quieter"
"im already talking real quiet" he chuckled and sat down next to me "here" he handed me aspirin and a bottle of water. ugh I hate alcohol.
"why didn't you stop me?" I asked after taking it
"from doing what?" he asked
"from getting drunk" I said In a duh tone
"I wasn't with you all night jess"
"you should of been... what happened to going together?"
"you tell me" he shrugged "you were the one who danced with ethan most of the night - then I tried to take you off him but you told me to deal with it and carried on"
"I dont remember that..." I said holding my head in my hand "hey, but atleast you got to dance with alexis" I smiled lightly at him and laid back down. he didn't answer but when I looked at him he seemed upset.
"whats wrong z?" I asked placing my hand on his arm
he swatted me off "nothing" he looked anywhere but me. and there was definitely something wrong with him... but what?
"i'll let you sleep" he muttered, I hope he isn't leaving
"zachy?" he was walking towards the door "could you stay with me?"
"course" he said, just as he was coming back there was a knock on the door "come in" Zach said, then Jack walked in
"hey jess - just came over to check on you - as it is the first time you have ever drank" he chuckled
"im fine Jack - thanks for asking though" I smiled
"how come you drank then?" he asked
"I dont actually know. I think I just got carried away, or someone spiked my drink or something" I shrugged
"okay okay, dude she needs to sleep - come back later or something" Zach said
"alright then - you guys take care" jack said before leaving the room. Zach shut the door then came and laid down with me. I could finally feel the aspirin kick in and I was actually feeling comfortable now. I felt Zach brush hair out of my face and I opened my eyes
"sorry - I thought you were asleep" he said
"so you wanted to touch me..?" I said
"who wouldn't ey?" he smirked and my heart fluttered - did he act - "I was kidding Jess" he said and turned onto his back looking up and the celling
"Zach?" I asked moving a little closer "do you actually like Alexis?"
he shrugged "why do you care?"
"are you mad at me?" I frowned a little
"oh my god of course not. why'd you think I was mad?" he asked
"you just seem mad"
"trust me jess, im not" he said and moved one of his arms to wrap it around me "come here" he said and before I had a chance to do anything he moved his other arm to grab me and move me closer
"you should go out and do something today" I said
"nah" he sighed
"why not?"
"because I would much rather lay here with you than go out with the guys" he said
"really?" I smiled "even if we just laid her all day?" I asked
"honestly - i'd pick this over anything"
I looked up at him weirdly
"I know this makes you happy jess - and id do anything to make you happy" he pulled me even closer. and my head was rested on his chest, I moved my arms to lay it there too. "just sleep jess, ill wake you up later on" he said and lightly kissed my forehead. I nodded and fell back asleep....
