Only Love Can Hurt Like This

Matt chuckled, shaking his head. "What is that suppose to be, a hint?" He teased her, before he pulled his phone out and sent Zack a quick text. Teen's got the hots for somebody. He teased Zack.

Kali glared at the clerk before she grabbed her bag and her card. Before storming out of the shop, "that bitch." She growled, before moving over to Zack.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie gave a playful shrug, "I don't know, take what you will from what I said." Jessie then quickly ate some of her pancakes. Jessie saw Matt pull put his phone, "You just told Zacky didn't you," laughed Jessie.

Zacky followed Kali as she stormed out the shop, he only just caught what she said. "What did the clerk say?" asked Zack, he was wondering what made her so mad. Zack felt a vibration in his pocket and he slipped out his phone and read the text from Matt, he couldn't help but smirk. So Kali was flirting with him last night Said teen is out with me as we text replied Zack.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt chuckled before looking up at Jessie. "No I didn't." He said but his smile gave a way he was lying. His phone going off distracted him from her. What do you mean out with you? "Apparently Zack and Kali are out together." He said, looking up at Jessie.

---

Kali rolled her eyes and shook her head. "Nothing important." She said tuning out her anger, before walking into a different store. This one really didn't have clothing she liked but she was looking at the shoes.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie caught onto to Matt's smile as she took another bit of her pancakes. "They are out? Like where? This is a development," replied Jessie, she had defiantly not expected that from Zacky and Kali.

Zacky felt his phone go off again he quickly replied Matt Out shopping, her not me. "Must have been something if it's got you this mad," replied Zack as he entered the store with Kali.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt laughed out at Jessie, before turning back to his phone. "Shopping." He said, "that's just like Zacky." He said shaking his head. Shopping, you know that's what got you in trouble the last time. Zack had always had a problem with trying to please his girlfriends. He would go about it the wrong way, take them shopping and buy them expensive things or let them smother him. He needed to learn boundaries and how to say no to them.

---

Kali threw a look at him over her shoulder, smiling. "I'm not mad." She informed him, and it was just like that she wasn't. That girl didn't matter to her any more, and it wasn't like she was going to have to run into her again. She was just dust in wind, and Kali was determined to not let it ruin her time with Zack. "I thought you needed to buy some stuff?" She asked him, changing the subject quickly.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie playfully rolled her eyes, "That doesn't surprise me to be honest," she said softly. Zack had a habit of wanting to please his girlfriends and he hated saying no to people. But Jessie knew Kali and knew that she was very independent, she worked hard for money and she wasn't going to let Zacky simple buy her stuff because he could afford it.

Zacky nodded, "Yeah I do, I need to get some new shoes and probably a t-shirt or two," replied Zacky, he then headed towards the guys shoes. He was looking for some smart shoes as he recently lost his decent pair, Zack saw Matt had replied and he once again checked his phone. I know, I'll be on my best behavior.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt chuckled he knew Jessie had seen the side of Zacky not many witnessed. Zack didn't understand that women wanted to be doted on with e and not items. Those women that wanted items were only in it for the money, and Zack thought that as long as they staid around they cared. "Let's just hope that Kali will knock some sense into him." Good boy He text back.

---

Kali watched as Zack moved away, she didn't mean to push him away. She just didn't want this trip to be all about her. She wanted them to have fun shopping not him feel like he was being dragged around. Biting her lip she turned away from the shoes and moved towards him. "Find any thing you like?" She nearly purred, in a teasing manor.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie nodded in agreement, "I'm sure she will." Jessie was soon finishing up her pancakes and her juice, "It looks like I have to go to work soon," she pouted. Jessie enjoyed her work, she had regulars and it was normal pleasant time but now she was starting something with Matt she would rather spend time with him instead of work.

Zacky was busy looking a pair of shoes when Kali approached him, he jumped slightly as she spoke. "Yeah, i think I've found a nice pair," chuckled Zack as he caught his breath, "What do you think?" Zack showed Kali the shoes he had in his hands, he liked to get a second opinion and he had a feeling Kali wouldn't lie to him about his choice.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt nodded trying his hardest not to let a frown appear, "well maybe we should be going then." He told her, before pulling money out of his wallet and dropping it down on the table. He grabbed his cup taking a quick drink before placing it down and standing.

---

Kali shrugged before looking up at his face. "What are they for?" She question not really liking the shoes, but if he planned to wear them like with a suit then they were fine. "They're really not your style." She told him, "unless you're going to a wedding or maybe on a fancy date." She teased him.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie nodded sadly agreeing with Matt, she decided not to protest about Matt paying for her. Jessie stood up from the booth and followed Matt out of IHOP towards his car. "I finish at eight tonight, so it's not all that bad," she said. Jessie worked mostly the day shifts, she used to work the nights shifts at the bar but after a few new people were hired they moved her to daytime hours.

Zacky agreed they were not really his style, "No wedding and no date as of yet," replied Zack with a teasing manner, "I did have a pair of shoes like this but in the move I must have lost them so I thought I should get a new pair." Zack hoped he could wear them out somewhere, he didn't mind getting dressed up once in a while.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt smiled at her before holding the car door open for her. "I think I can work with that." He told her, before leaning in and placing a kiss to her lips. "Maybe I should just drop you off at work, gives me a reason to pick you up." He smirked.

---

Kali smirked at him, "oh so your hoping for both soon?" She teased, "which one first?" She said before bending over and picking up a pair of shoes. "These should do, maybe even get you laid too." She teased.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie smiled as Matt placed a kiss on her lips, she thought for a moment. "If you want to," she replied, "As long as it's not too much trouble but I will have to get my car at some point." She said before quickly returning the kiss and getting inside the car.

Zacky chuckled, "I am hoping someone I know will announce a wedding and then I can take a nice girl to the wedding," replied Zack. He blushed a little a Kali's comment, "You try to say my current state of footwear isn't nice?" he asked jokingly as he looked down at his current shoes.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt chuckled, "we'll figure something out." He told her as she got into his car, he smiled brightly as he closed her door. Then jogged around to his side slipping in behind the wheel.

---

Kali rolled her eyes, "I doubt any of your friends are getting married soon." She told him, before looking down at his shoes too. "Oh yeah, so turned on here." She laughed out, not being able to keep a straight face.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie waited until Matt was in his side of the car, "Well thank you for treating me to breakfast and for taking me to work I really appreciate it," smiled Jessie, he didn't have to do these things but Jessie was thankful Matt did.

Kali was right, Zack doubted any of his friends would be getting married soon but you never knew. Zack watched as a smile appeared on Kali's face, "There is nothing wrong with these shoes," he protested, he thought they were fine for today's activities.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt smiled over at her, before grabbing her hand. "It was my pleasure," he told her before placing a kiss to her knuckles. Then he pulled his car from IHop.

---

Kali smiled up at him, "no there's nothing wrong with them." She told him, before placing the other shoes back down. He wasn't showing any interest to the shoes, but to her. That thought made her insides twist.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie smiled as Matt kissed her knuckles and began to make his way out of IHOP. Jessie was soon fiddling with the radio in the car as Matt drove her to work.

Zacky nodded, "I'll buy them, thanks for the input," thanked Zack. He glanced at the shoes before checking he had the correct pair, "Are you buying anything from here?" he asked softly.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt bit his lip as he let his car move slowly along the road. He didn't want her to be late, but he didn't want to spend the day with out her. "So did you have plans for the summer or was it just working?" He asked her, thinking it would be nice to actually do something instead of chill at home.

---

Kali smiled up at Zack, "no, they don't have anything I really want." She informed him, before moving toward the exit. "I'll be in Victoria Secret." She informed him, with a smile. Moving out of the shop and walking a few stores down. She was teasing him, she knew he'd never join her. But it was fun none the less to make him think what she'd want to buy in there.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Jessie shook her head, "No, no plans. Well apart from my brother's wedding in a few weeks, I have signed myself up for dog sitting though," chuckled Jessie. Jessie loved her brother but if she was honest she only visited her brother to see his two Border Collies, Scout and Jem.

Zacky nodded and his ears perked up a little at the sound of Victoria Secret. Zacky chuckled softly to himself with a shake of his head as he headed to pay for his shoes. Zacky could tell Kali was teasing and he really didn't mind it but there was only so much teasing he could take.

@ gilderoy-lockhart
Matt nodded, "so what does the dog sitting entail?" He questioned. Looking briefly over at her. "Like a week for their honeymoon?" He questioned, "at their place?" He wondered trying to figure out what or how or when he could do this summer, since she was now his main priority.

---

Kali smiled moving through the store, picking things up as she went. Not really caring if she had a need for them or not. Smiling she moved to the bra section.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
"Yeah basically," replied Jessie, "My brother he has got one of them nice houses not too far from the beach so I can't grumble about it." Jessie hoped nearer the time she could ask Matt to join her for a few days at her brother's house.

Zacky paid for his shoes and then made his way to Victoria Secret, he felt a little awkward entering the place but he quickly got over it as he looked for Kali, he stopped her by the bra section and made his way over to her.
