Tattoos on the Heart.

Zacky raised a brow as he watched Matt go into some house to get some bud, yawning and shrugging. Whatever floated his boat. Zacky just wanted to take a nap and not think about any brownies for a long time. He yawned auidibly as Matt got back in the car and began making his way back to his house. "I've got the munchies too, man," he whined. "Can we order pizza? And Chinese food. I wish ice cream delivered." He huffed, shaking his head. He got out of the car when they got to Matt's, following him inside. He plopped himself down into the couch and grabbed the tv remote, beginning to flip through channels. There was never anything good on to watch when you were high. Except porn, that was always a good thing to watch. But he didn't have Louisa to take care of his problem if he got one. "Oh, hi," he said as he saw Bella sitting there staring st him. "Did you eat another brownie again, I sure hope not." Zacky stared at her with wide eyes, getting up and going into the kitchen. He sighed in relief when he saw that the brownies they had left on the counter were still intact, exactly where they had left them. "Oh good, Matt isn't going to kill me today." Zacky went to the fridge and grabbed a water, guzzling about half of the bottle down before he started pulling random items out to make a sandwich. He couldn't wait on delivery, he needed some snacks now. "I'm thinking a peanut butter and banana sandwich with some pickles," he said as Matt entered the kitchen.

Jenna frowned. Louisa was right even though she didn't want to admit it. It was just a scary thought. "Yeah... it's just scary. I don't want to love someone, get attached, then it turns out it was never real and it was just for the sex so it was all a lie in the end," she said with a shake of her head. She sighed heavily as she rubbed her eyes, groaning. That brownie was definitely kicking in. She couldn't think straight at all. "Are you excited about going home for the holiday? I bet you're going to miss Zacky though," she said. Jenna was definitely excited about going with Louisa for thanksgiving. Though she was definitely going to miss Matt, this was a good opportunity for them to be apart for a while. They needed a chance to miss one another. Even though Jenna felt like she missed him every second that they were apart. She reached down and began to pet Pirate who was now curled up in her lap, biting her lower lip. "I don't know what I'm going to do with Pirate while we're gone. Maybe I can get Matt to watch him for me," Jenna said softly, frowning as she watched Pirate sleep. She had definitely become very attracted to the small puppy ina very short amount of time. She couldn't imagine anyone taking care of her dog while she was gone besides Matt. Plus Bella and Pirate got along so well together.

"Honestly, do you think Matt would go through all the trouble planning dates and constantly having you over to his house if everything was a lie?" Louisa asked. "And didn't he invite you to his house for Thanksgiving? I think it's safe to say he really likes you, Jen. No need to worry." With Zacky gone, Louisa was able to stretch out on the couch, looking over at Jenna when the other girl spoke again. "Of course I'm excited about going home for the holidays," Louisa said, grinning. "A whole month and a half with my family? It's going to be great." She knew most people wouldn't want to be away from home for that long, but this time of year was the only time she got to see her family since she'd moved to California and besides, there was no point in flying home for Thanksgiving, flying back to California, flying to Alabama again for Christmas, and then flying back to California again in January. It was simpler and cheaper to just fly there before Thanksgiving and stay until after Christmas. Of course, being away from Zacky for that long would be difficult. "I mean, yeah, I'll definitely miss Zacky. But we can Skype and talk on the phone every night. Just as long as I get to see his cute little face once a day, I'll be okay I think. And yeah, I think Matt would definitely be willing to watch Pirate for you while we're gone. Were you going to stay in Alabama with me the entire time or just for Thanksgiving?"

---

Matt let Bella out to use the bathroom, ushering her back inside when she'd done her business. She instantly ran into the living room but Matt headed into the kitchen, intent on finding something to help with his munchies. He made a face when Zacky joined him in the kitchen, hearing what the other man wanted to eat. "That's fucking disgusting, dude," he said. He grabbed his phone and pulled up the number to the local pizza place. "You can eat your nasty ass sandwich, I'm going to order pizza." Once Matt had ordered his pizza, adding on an order of cheese bread sticks because he was extra hungry, he went to sit down in the living room, scratching Bella's ears when she plopped her head in his lap. "Oh shit, let me put up this bud before the pizza delivery guy gets here," Matt said, suddenly spotting the bag on the coffee table. He moved Bella from his lap and got to his feet, grabbing the bag and going to stash it in his bedroom. He couldn't wait to smoke with Jenna and see what she was like when she was actually high. He'd gotten pretty good weed, so it should really get her pretty high. "Are you done making your travesty of a sandwich?" he called out to Zacky in the kitchen as he sat down on the couch again.

Zacky just shrugged and continued to make his sandwich. "Suit yourself," he said as he slapped on a few more things. At the mention of pizza though, Zacky's whole appetite and mood changed. He furrowed his brow and looked down at his sandwich, biting his lower lip. "I want pizza," he whined, making a face at how suddenly disgusting that sandwich was. He threw it away, shrugging and going into the living room. He grinned and shook his head at Matt's question, plopping down in the recliner across from him. "Nope, cause I'm gonna have me some pizza," he told his friend, rubbing his hands together. Zacky felt like his taste buds were just going all over the place. One minute he wanted something completely outrageous and disgusting than the next he wanted something normal and actualy edible. He was glad though because eating that sandwich would have probably made him deathly ill.

---

Jenna knew that Louisa was right. Matt definitely wouldn't be going through all of the trouble of anything if it were a lie. She sighed heavily, running a hand through her hair. She looked over at Louisa and smiled at her friend, glad that she was excited to be going home. Jenna bit down on her bottom lip, shrugging a bit at her question. "Maybe just for Thanksgiving. I think I want to be here with Matt for our first Christmas," she said, giggling softly. She hoped it snowed and they could have the perfect white Christmas together. "Maybe you can get Zacky to fly down for Christmas," she said as she wiggled her brow. Jenna didn't know how Louisa could stand being away from Zacky for that long. She knew that she definitely wasn't going to be able to be away from Matt, that was why she was probably coming back right after Thanksgiving.

When Jenna suggested having Zacky fly down for Christmas, Louisa made a slight face, shaking her head. "I don't think I wanna introduce him to my family that early," she said. "I'd rather wait until the spring, when I take all of y'all home for my sorority reunion. We'll have been together about six months by that point. Plenty long enough to introduce him to my crazy ass family. If I can convince them that they don't need to meet him yet, I might have him fly down. I guess it just depends on what they've got going on. He might wanna spend Christmas with his family. It'll be his nephew's first, if I'm not mistaken." Louisa was really torn on having Zacky come to visit her for Christmas, because she really thought it was too soon to introduce him to her family. But now that Jenna had put the idea in her head, she didn't know if she could go a whole five weeks without seeing Zacky. They'd hardly spent any time apart since they'd started dating. But maybe a little time apart would do them some good, who knew.

---

"Well I'm glad you decided to tell me you wanted pizza after I already placed my fucking order," Matt said, glaring at Zacky. He hoped they had enough food, because he only ordered the one pizza and an order of cheese breadsticks. And he sure as hell wasn't sharing his breadsticks. "You might want to call and place your own order because I only ordered one pizza and I'll probably eat the entire thing by myself." Zacky could bitch and whine all he wanted, but Matt didn't like sharing his food when he was high. Any other time, he might be willing to split the pizza with Zacky, but not today. Not when the munchies were in full effect. Matt almost dozed off on the couch, only jerking awake when the doorbell rang. "Hell yeah, food's here," he said, getting to his feet.

Zacky grumbled, huffing and crossing his arms over his chest. "You should've ordered enough to feed an army," he said, pouting. What if Zacky got the munchies and wanted pizza even after eating his sandwich? Matt obviously didn't think things through well enough. Zacky pulled out his phone and called Jimmy, telling him to bring him some pizza. Jimmy drives faster than a pizza delivery guy any day of the week. "My pizza will be here soon," he said, sticking his tongue out at Matt. Zacky reclined back in the chair, almost dizzying off a bit until the doorbell ring and Matt's pizza was here. Zacky whined, pouting as he watched Matt with his pizza. He just had to keep reminding himself that Jimmy would be here soon with his. Just like his thouht, Jimmy was there in no time with 4 large pizzas, sodas and wings. Zacky rubbed his hands together as he got up out of the chair, licking over his lips. "Now that's what I'm talking about," he said as he made his way into the kitchen, grabbing himself a plate.

"You owe me brownies, where are they," Jimmy said, searching all over the kitchen for them.

Zacky rolled his eyes, walking over and uncovering the weed brownies that were clearly right infront of Jimmy's face. Jimmy's eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas morning, which made Zacky instantly laugh and shake his head. "Thanks, Jimbo," he said as he clapped him on the shoulder. "Thanks, Matt, for not getting me pizza!" He called out to him with a smirk.

---

Jenna nodded. Perhaps it was to soon for Zacky to meet her family at Christmas, which made Jenna wonder if it were to soon for her to meet Matt's family. She sighed and shoved the thought to the back of her mind. He invited her over for Thanksgiving, obviously he didn't think it was to soon. She frowned and rubbed her eyes, wishing she had waited until later to eat that damn brownie. "Ugh, why did I eat that brownie," she groaned, burying her face in the couch pillows. Her eyes wanted to close so badly but they couldn't just yet. The shop still had some time before it closed. Jenna gasped as she sat up, looking over st Louisa. "I have the munchies so bad," she said, biting her lower lip. There was a convenience store across the way that Jenna was about to go hit up for a bunch of snacks. She was craving something sweet but she also wanted something salty. "Want to go to the store real quick with me?" She asked, standing up and grabbing her wallet from over the counter. Katie could hold down the fort while they were gone for a few minutes. Hopefully it was only for a few minutes. Things were pretty slow today for the most part so it wasn't like they were going to miss anything. If a walk in came in then they'd wait if they wanted a tattoo that bad, if not then obviously they weren't someone they wanted to tattoo anyways.

Louisa laughed when Jenna started to whine about eating the brownie. This was the exact reason she'd decided to wait until after they'd closed the shop. "I guess we can go across the street so you can get something to eat," Louisa agreed, getting to her feet. She stretched her arms over her head. "Katy, just call if you need us, we'll just be at the convenience store across the street," she said the girl sitting behind the counter. Katy nodded, turning her attention to the phone in her hand. "Let's go, Jen." Louisa shivered as they stepped outside, looking up at the sky and noticing how it looked like it might snow again. She sort of hoped that she and Zacky got snowed into his house, but she also hoped that the weather didn't get too bad because she was ready to fly home. "Hurry up and find something, I'm freezing my ass off," Louisa said as they stepped into the store. She offered a small wave to the girl at the counter before she went to fix herself a small cup of coffee. Might as well take advantage of being at the convenience store.

---

"I would have if you hadn't said you were going to make that ass sandwich," Matt said. When the doorbell rang, he got up to answer the door, thanking the delivery boy and giving him a tip. "Fuck, this smells so good," he said, sitting back down on the couch. He opened the pizza box and pulled out a slice, taking a huge bite. "Man, this is so good, I'm glad I've got some food," he taunted, glancing over at Zacky. Not long after Matt had gotten his food, the doorbell rang and Jimmy was there with Zacky's food, which was honestly more than enough to probably feed the both of them. "Fuck Zack, if you eat all that, you'll get so fat that Louisa won't be able to find your dick," Matt laughed, reaching over and stealing one of Zacky's wings.

"She probably already has a hard enough time as it is, it's like the size of a battery," Jimmy teased, laughing.

"And how the hell would you know, have you been staring at Zack's dick?" Matt asked, glancing over at Zacky with a raised eyebrow.

Zacky raised a brow when Matt took one of his chicken wings, slapping his hand. "That is just rude, Matthew," He said, glaring at him. He definitely didn't need all this food though really he needed to take some. Zacky raised a brow when The fat jokes started coming, pursing his lips to the side. "I'll have you know that Louisa loves me just the way I have," he pointed out, shoving some pizza into his mouth. He almost spewed it right back out at both Matt and Jimmy's comments about his dick, looking between the both of them. He smirked, wiggling his brows. "He just gets a little shy sometimes when James wants to take a little look," he said, pretending to flip his hair back. He snorted and busted out laughing, shaking his head. He definitely didn't need anymore weed brownies, that's for sure. Zacky sighed and calmed himself down, pulling out his phone to text Louisa. Matt and Jimmy keep telling me that if I eat all this pizza I ordered I'll get so fat you won't want me anymore :( he sent her, putting his phone on the table. He ate a couple of wings, stealing one of Matt's breadsticks before he decided he was done. "I think I'm way over full," he said, letting out a loud burp. "Excuse me," he said, a silly smile on his face. It always felt so good to burp after being so full.

---

Jenna grinned and quickly followed after Louisa to the store. She bit down on her bottom lip as she looked around, huffing at all the choices. "Fuck, why is this so hard?" She grumbled, putting her hands on her hips. She started to grab the junkiest things she could find, which was a couple of honey buns, some slim jims, candy bars, hot fries, beef jerky, Mountain Dew and various other things. Her arms were loaded with things as she went up to the counter, setting it all down. The guy gave her an odd look and she just shrugged. "Road trip," she told him with a laugh. She was shocked with the amount it all came to, not sure it was all worth it or not. She was definitely taking it all to Matt's later so it probably was. "Alright, you ready?" She asked Louisa, digging through her bag for a honey bun. She waited for Louisa to pay for her things before heading back over to the tattoo parlor. Jenna opened her honey bun and took a bite, moaning st how good it tasted. "Fuck, this is so good," she whined, walking through the door of the parlor. "Hi, Pirate," she greeted the dog who acted like he hadn't seen them in a million years. "Mommy is in the middle of orgasming over a honey bun, can you please give me a moment," she huffed, pushing him off of her as she tried to sit down. "I swear." Jenna quickly finished the honey bun, frowning when she realized it was gone. "That was gone so fast!" She whined. "This being high shit is totally for the birds. I hate having the munchies."

"Because you're high and you want everything," Louisa laughed. She carried her cup of coffee over to the counter while Jenna picked out her snacks, quickly paying and taking a sip. Even inside the store, she was still freezing and the coffee was doing wonders to help warm her up. But she was sure it would be even better later when she could be cuddled up in bed with Zacky and his dogs. Like most men, Zacky just seemed to radiate heat when he was in bed and as a cold-natured southern girl, Louisa loved that. Bracing herself against the cold as she and Jenna headed back to the shop, Louisa hurried back across the street, shivering over dramatically when they stepped into the tattoo parlor. "Shit, it is way too fucking cold outside," she whined, sitting down on the couch. "I can't wait to be home in Alabama where it's warm." Louisa jumped when she felt her phone vibrate since she wasn't expecting a text message, but grinned when she saw it was from Zacky. "Jenna, you need to tell your meathead boyfriend to be nice to Zacky!" Louisa exclaimed, reading the message. "He said Matt and Jimmy are telling him he's going to get fat and I won't want him anymore." Don't let them lie to you darlin', I'll always want you ;)

---

"Hey, don't fucking hit me, you asshole," Matt said, reaching over to punch Zacky on the arm. When Zacky made a comment about his dick being shy, they all laughed, although Matt was sure it was just a side effect of being high. Before long, it seemed like most of the food was gone, except for a little bit of Zacky's. "I cannot fucking believe we just ate all of that," Matt said. He looked down at his bloated belly. "I need to go to the gym now and work off all this shit. Wanna go with me, Zack?" Matt asked, smirking over at the rhythm guitarist. After the disaster the other day, Matt doubted Zacky would ever want to go to the gym with him ever again. But Matt couldn't help that Zacky was out of shape. He was just trying to help. "Okay, well since we've got a little time to kill before the girls get off work, what do you say we play some video games?" Matt asked. "Video games are always fun when we're high." He got up and went over to sit in front of his Xbox, pulling out the games he had. "I've got plenty of fucking games to choose from."

"Just not Call of Duty," Jimmy said. He glared at Matt. "You get too damn serious when you play that game and I don't want you killing my vibe."

Zacky rubbed his bloated stomach, patting it as he let out a dramatic sigh. He glared at Matt and stuck his tongue out at him, wincing when he punched him. "I can't believe we ate all of that either," he said with a shake of his head. "I'm definitely never going to the gym with you ever again. You're just fucking nuts," he told his friend, shaking his head as he got up and followed him into the living room. He plopped down in his usual seat in the recliner, relaxing back. He laughed as Jimmy said to play anything but call of duty, nodding in agreement. "I have to agree, you get hardcore and so tilted with those kids. Definitely a vibe killer," he laughed. "Maybe a zombie game. Left 4 dead?" He suggested with a shrug, trying to think of something. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and he pulled it out, smirking as he read his text from Louisa. Yah? I hope so, I don't know what I would do without you, or your tight little ass in my bed. he sent, raising a brow as he reread it after he sent it. He shrugged, setting his phone back down and putting his hands behind his head. He couldn't wait for Louisa to get off work so he could take her back to his place and he could have his way with her. One thing was for sure, when he was high he was horny. "Just hurry up and pick a game already," he groaned, getting impatient.

---

Jenna snorted. "That's true," she said, sitting on the couch. She got a drink, opening it and taking a sip. "You're definitely being way over dramatic about the cold. It's not that cold," she laughed. "You and your hot weather in Alabama," she tsked. "I'm sure you are ready to get back and have yourself a nice hot Christmas," Jenna laughed. She raised a brow when Louisa said to tell Matt to be nice to Zacky, shaking her head. "What's he doing now?" She groaned, grabbing one of the couch pillows and covering her face with it. "I swear they're like children, you leave them alone for five minutes and they're picking on one another and then complaining to us like we're supposed to stop it." She huffed, searching for her phone. "Where is my damn phone." Jenna eventually found it under her ass, which made her roll her eyes. She brought up a new text for Matt, pursing her lips as she thought of what to say. Matthew Charles, you better be nice to Zacky, or else I'm not giving you free reign to do whatever you want with my body later. she sent him, snorting to herself. That wasn't even a very good threat because they both knew she let him do whatever he wanted regardless. Jenna jumped about a mile in the air when someone walked into the shop, looking over and seeing a couple of girls at the counter. "You can take them," she told Louisa, smiling innocently.

"It is too that cold!" Louisa said, pouting. "Right now in Alabama, it's like forty degrees. Right now, right here, it's..." She paused as she pulled out her phone, going to her weather app to check the temperature. "...twenty-nine degrees! Too. Fucking. Cold. But that's okay, I'm sure Zacky will help me warm up later." Louisa wiggled her eyebrows at Jenna as she unlocked her phone, seeing a text message from Zacky. She smirked as she read it. Overwork your left hand, I'm sure. She sent the message to him, looking up when she heard the bell above the door ding. "Yeah okay, you just stay here and stuff your face with junk food, you little weirdo," Louisa said to Jenna, laughing as she got to her feet. She took the two girls over to the counter, getting the one girl's design ready and having Katy take her payment before taking them to her tattoo chair. It was a dandelion that dissolved into birds, a typical white girl tattoo. But it took up a good two hours of time to get it done and as the girls were leaving, Louisa looked out and saw a light snow falling from the sky. "Hey Katy, are there any more appointments left today?" Louisa asked. Katy shook her head. "Cool, shut this shit down. It's already snowing, I don't want to get stuck here."

---

"I'm not nuts, you're just out of shape," Matt shot back at Zacky. "I was just trying to help you." Matt nodded when Zacky suggested Left 4 Dead, taking the game out of its case and popping it into the Xbox. He handed a controller to Jimmy and one to Zacky before sitting back down on the couch, waiting for the game to load. He heard his phone vibrate on the coffee table and he reached for it, grinning when he saw that he had a message from Jenna. Reading over it, he reached over and slugged Zacky on the arm. "Fucking tattling on us to your girlfriend, Baker?" he asked. He waved his phone in Zacky's face. "Jenna just texted and told me to be nice to you." He knew Zacky had told Louisa that they were making fat jokes at him and then she'd probably told Jenna to tell him to be nice to him. Zacky's just a whiny baby. We weren't even really making fun of him. Tossing his phone back onto the table, Matt picked up his controller and selected the multiplayer option on the game. "Alright, are you guys ready to have your asses kicked?" Matt asked, looking at the two other guys.

@ estival

Zacky got himself situated in his seat, taking the controller from Matt when he handed it to him. He was all in the zone and getting ready to game when Matt hit him in the arm, waving his phone in his face. He laughed innocently and shrugged, looking back to the TV. "Hey, I gotta tell someone," he muttered, biting his lip. Someone had to come to his rescue when it came to the bullies that Matt and Jimmy were at times, right? He looked down at his own phone that vibrated in his lap, picking it up and reading his text from Louisa. He smirked as he read it, shaking his head and chuckling. Well I do have that, Princess. But I definitely prefer you. Zacky could feel his high slowly fading but he was still pretty fucking out there. He was almost tempted to go eat another brownie. "Alright you fuckers, let's play!" He said as Matt set up the game. Zacky made a face af the zombies on the screen, shaking his head as he tried to shoot them to death. Three against a massive hoard of zombies wasn't exactly the best thing in the world. "What the fuck, James! Pick me up!" He yelled as he got down, almost tempted to throw the controller at him.

"Shut up you fucking prick, don't you see I'm trying to fight off this hoard? Oh shit, there's a bomber!" Jimmy squealed, making Zacky rolled his eyes and shake his head.

"'Matt, where in the hell are you? Come pick me up! Someone, anyone before I die!" Zacky said, frustrafed.

---

Jenna giggled and shook her head at Louisa. It was definitely a lot warmer in Alabama right about now. California was having their coldest winter yet, equipped with snow and all. It wasn't like Jenna was complaining though because she definitely wasn't, as much as she loved her warm weather she did love her cold every now and then. She smiled when Louisa said she'd take the clien, waving her fingers at her and mouthing a thank you. Jenna was very content with just sitting there eating her junk food and cuddling with her pup. She picked up her phone as if went off, sighing as she read Matt's text. Zacky being Zacky. she sent him. She wondered what he was doing right now. She probably could have asked him but she didn't want to be extremely nosey. She sighed heavily, shaking her head and putting away her snacks. She took a sip of her drink, cleaning up her mess along with whatever mess Pirate had been making throughout the day. When Louisa came out front with the finished client, Jenna leaned against the counter and listened to her conversation with Katy. "Oh, great! You can totally drive us to Matt's then since that's where they all are," she said with a smirk. "They won't even have to know we're coming earlier. Surprise them in their natural habitat," she said with a laugh. Jenna just wanted to go see Matt, get snowed in with him one more time.

"I'll drop you off at Matt's, but then I'm taking Zacky back to his house because I want to be able to fuck in peace," Louisa said, laughing at Jenna. She went around doing the last minute things she needed to do to close up the tattoo shop, waiting for Jenna and Katy to walk out before she shut and locked the door. "See you tomorrow, Katy," Louisa called out to the secretary. She glanced towards the sky. "Well, maybe." As she was climbing into her car, she felt her phone vibrate and saw that she had a message from Zacky. Just smirking and stuffing the phone back into her pocket, Louisa started her car. There was no need to text him back when she was going to see him in fifteen minutes. "Looks like Jimmy's here, too," Louisa said as she pulled up to the curb outside of Matt's house. She looked over at Jenna with a grin. "How much do you want to bet they're still high as hell?"

---

As soon as the game started, the three of them were immediately surrounded by zombies, probably because Matt had selected the hardest difficulty level. He laughed at Zacky's whining that somebody revive him, dodging around several zombies to go and help him out. "There you go you fucking pussy, are you happy now?" he teased the guitarist, quickly moving away. He moved into a better spot to fire, pressing down the button on his controller and unloading an entire magazine. "Fuck, there's so many of them."

"That's your fault, you idiot, you picked the hardest level," Jimmy said. Suddenly there was a knock at the front door and Jimmy nearly tossed his controller across the room. "Zombies!" he shouted.

Matt quickly mashed the pause button. "You fucking idiot, zombies aren't real!" he shouted, setting the controller aside before he got to his feet. He went to answer the door, a little confused but pleasantly surprised when he saw Jenna and Louisa. "Uh, isn't it a little early for you guys to be here?" he asked. "But come on in, you can watch Zack die over and over and then bitch to be revived."

@ estival

Zacky grumbled a half-hearted thank you to Matt when he finally revived him, going ape shit with his gun once he was up. "Jesus, why did you have to pick the hardest difficulty?" He groaned, grunting as a boomer came and tried to vomit on him. Maybe if he weren't high this wouldn't be as difficult as it was, but right now he felt like he was a beginner gamer. Like he was someone who had never touched a game controller before or even played this game. Not that he was ever really good at video games to begin with. Zacky' eyes widened and he jumped about a foot in the air when there was a knock at the door, laughing at Jimmy and shaking his head as he yelled something about Zombies. "You're an idiot," he said to the drummer. "You're going to be a zombie if you don't calm your shit." Zacky got up and picked up the controller, putting it on the coffee table in front of the scared man. Zacky froze, his eyes wide as he stared at the empty space behind the couch, prending like there was a zombie there. "Oh god!" He screamed, followed by Jimmy who flew a foot into the air and screamed so high pitched he sound like a little girl. Zacky fell onto the floor laughing, holding his stomach. "O-oh man, th-that was gr-great!" He managed to choke out in between laughs. He sat up, raising a brow when he heard a female voice that sounded much like Jenna's in the kitchen. If Jenna was here did that mean Louisa was here? But what were they doing here so early? Not that he was complaining by any means.

---

Jenna laughed and smirked at Louisa, wiggling her brow. She definitely didn't blame her friend there. She went around and gathered hers and Pirates things, cleaning up his mess of toys and putting them in the small toy box she kept for him there. Once Louisa was done with closing up shop, she sent a small wave to Katy and got in the car. She shivered as she buckled her seatbelt, looking up at the sky. It looked like they were about to have another good round of snow. Not that Jenna minded, it was just going to give her another opportunity to stay warmed up with her perfect boyfriend. When they got to Matt's, she nodded at what Louisa said, noting her observation. "Looks like it," she said with a sigh. With Jimmy being here who knows what would happen. Jenna got out of the car, getting pirate and going up to Matt's door. She was about to walk right in but Louisa decided to knock, which caused her to raise an eyebrow at her friend. "Yes, because the girlfriend of the man who lives here is supposed to stand out here and wait for him to answer his door," Jenna said with a shake of her head. It was cold and she just wanted to get inside. When Matt finally opened the door she beamed, letting Pirate go find Bella as she rushed into his arms. "I feel like I haven't seen you in forever," she said, hugging him tight. She raised a brow when she smelled pizza, instantly letting go and making her way to the kitchen. "You guys had pizza without us?!" She exclaimed as she examined the practically empty pizza boxes, heartbroken that there wasn't any left.

"It's rude to just burst into someone's house, Jenna," Louisa said. She reached out and rattled the doorknob. "Besides, the door is locked." She wasn't surprised when Jenna's attention was instantly on Matt, although that quickly changed as her friend smelled the remnants of the pizza in the kitchen. "All you think about is food, I swear," Louisa teased, rolling her eyes playfully. She continued on to the living room, seeing a petrified Jimmy in the recliner next to the couch and Zacky on the floor. "Why are you on the floor, darlin'?" she asked, cocking her head to the side. She smirked softly before sitting down next to him on the floor. "Look away, James," she said teasingly to Jimmy. He made a playful gagging noise, which made Louisa roll her eyes before she leaned in to kiss Zacky. "Are you having fun playing video games?" she asked him. "Or would you rather head back to your house before the weather gets bad and get snowed in one last time before I leave for Alabama?" Obviously, Louisa wouldn't rush Zacky if he wanted to continue playing video games with Jimmy and Matt, but she would certainly prefer it if he took her back to his house.

Matt grinned as Jenna embraced him. "It's only been a few hours, baby girl," he said. He raised an eyebrow when Jenna let go of him and headed into the kitchen. He followed after her, getting there in time to hear her whining about the pizza. "I'm sorry, if I would've known you guys were going to show up so early, I would've had Zacky order more pizza." In all honesty, he was still pretty hungry so if Jenna wanted him to, he might end up ordering more food later. "Alright fuckers, time to get the hell out," Matt announced, walking back into the living room. "You don't have to go home but you've got the hell out of here."

"Are you seriously going to make us leave so you can fuck your girlfriend?" Jimmy asked.

"Of course I am," Matt answered immediately. "So go. Go find Leana, give your right hand a workout, I don't care. Just leave." He was sure Zacky had no issue leaving, because Matt was sure that he and Louisa were going back to Zacky's house and would likely be doing the same thing he and Jenna were about to do.

Zacky beamed when he saw Louisa walkinto the room, laughing when she asked why he was on the floor. "I was scaring Jimmy," he said with a small shrug. He smirked when she told Jimmy to look away, flipping the lanky man off as he kissed his girlfriend. He raised a brow when she asked if he still wanted to play video games or go get snowed in with her, like that was actually a question to ask. "Do I really need to answer?" He said as he got up, pulling her with him. "Obviously I want to get snowed in with my princess before she leaves me for god only knows how long," he said with a pout, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close. He had almsot forgotten all about her leaving for the holidays and he wasn't looking forward to it. But he knew how much her family meant to her and how much she loved going back home. Hopefully one day if things went right then he'd be able to go with her. Zacky raised a brow when Matt started throwing them out of his house, rolling his eyes and shaking his head. "Jesus Christ, we're leaving," he said as he grabbed his jacket, pulling it on. "Don't bust a damn nut. See ya later, love birds," he said to them as he waved goodbye, following a grumbling Jimmy out the door. Zacky shivered as he looked up at the sky, furrowing his brow. "I don't think it's ever snowed this much," he said with a small frown. "Or been this cold. When you come back from visiting your family make sure you bring some warmth, yeah?" He said to Louisa with a small laugh.

Jenna heard Louisa tease her about always thinking of food, flipping her off even though she couldn't see her. "I think about other things too," she said with a small smirk. She looked up at Matt when he followed her into the kitchen, grinning up at him. "That's okay, baby," she told him, leaning up and giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll make something later. I just have the munchies." She pouted, following him out to the living room. She raised a brow at the sight before her, snorting as Matt starting kicking them all out. Jenna smirked when Matt confirmed that he was kicking them out to fuck his girlfriend, letting out a small giggle. He was to much. "Bye guys!" She said, waving them goodbye before she went to get Pirate's stuff situated. She found him and took him and Bella both outside before it decided to get nasty out, sighing heavily as she went back in when they were done. Jenna walked back into the living room, seeing that everyone was gone. "What were you guys playing?" She asked, sitting down on the couch and grabbing a controller. She pressed play, her eyes lighting up when she saw left for dead on the screen. Jenna bit down on her bottom lip as she easily began blowing through al the hordes of zombies, a string of profanities passing her lips when she couldn't find any ammo. She had a string of zombies behind her and no ammo, something she wasn't happy about. "Oh yeah, it's still in multiplayer. Kill these zombies," she said to Matt, her eyes wide. She probably should have never sat down to play this game. One because now Matt knows she's a game nerd and actually good at it and two because they were probablg about to have some good sex and the game totally cock blocked it.

Louisa grinned as Zacky got to his feet, pulling her with him. She knew he'd prefer to go back to his house, but she just wanted to give him the option. But before she could even start to walk towards the door, Matt cane back into the living room, telling them all to leave so he could fuck Jenna. "Yeah, thanks for that lovely mental image," Louisa gagged playfully, tugging her cost tight around her as she followed Zacky outside. Since he'd driven his own car over to pester Matt, she would have to follow him to his house, which was a shame because Louisa liked riding in the car with Zacky. She laughed when he said she should bring some warmth back from Alabama with her. "I'll bottle some up just for you, darlin'," she promised. She leaned up and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll follow you back to your house, okay?" she told him. "I'll see you in a few." Once Louisa was in her car, she immediately cranked up the heat, shivering a little as she started to follow Zacky back to his house. By the time they'd gotten there, it had started to snow just slightly, but Louisa was sure it would be coming down a lot harder before long. "It's way too cold outside," Louisa whined as she walked into Zacky's house. She turned to him with a pout on her face. "Hurry up and let your dogs out or whatever else you need to do so you can cuddle me and get me warm. Oh, and you've still got to let me try one of those pot brownies."

Matt chuckled as he watched Jimmy, Zacky, and Louisa leave. It wasn't like they couldn't play video games any other time. He sat down on the couch while Jenna let the dogs out, scrolling through facebook on his phone until he heard her come back inside. "Left 4 Dead," Matt answered, chuckling as Jenna started to play. She was better at this game than Zacky and Jimmy. When she told him to start killing zombies, Matt actually laughed out loud as he picked up his discarded controller. "Looks like somebody is secretly a little game nerd," he teased. Matt didn't even mind that they were probably going to play this game for a little while instead of having sex. If that's all he and Jenna did, he would be a little worried. Because the sex was definitely great, but it was hard to build the sort of relationship Matt was looking for now on something that was just physical. The fact that they could just sit around and play video games was a good thing. "I actually haven't had to come and revive you, baby girl, I'm surprised," Matt teased, glancing over at Jenna for a second. "Zacky and Jimmy are usually yelling every five minutes for someone to to come and pick them up."

Zacky nodded with a small smile as he pulled his keys out of his pocket, unlocking his car. He got in and started it up, letting it warm up before cranking the heat. It was definitely cold outside. He got to his house as fast as he was legally allowed to, pulling into the driveway and cutting the engine. He locked his car, going inside and putting his keys in the bowl on the small table in the foyer. He had managed to somehow get here before Louisa, though she kind of drove like an old granny sometimes. He thought to soon though because no sooner was he taking his jacket off he was walking through the dooor. Zacky laughed softly, nodding. "Alright, alright. Give me a second, woman," he told her, hanging his jacket up. He lead Icky and Majesty outside, wishing he still had his jacket on as he stood out there waiting for them to go to the bathroom. It was already beginning to snow and soon it would probably pick up into something much heavier. He was actually pretty excited to be geting snowed in with Louisa again. Once the dogs were finished doing their business, he went back inside and locked the door. He grabbed the plate of brownies off of the counter, smirking as he made his way over to Louisa. "Well, here you go, Princess," he said to her. Zacky wouldn't mind having another one himself but he was still buzzing from the last one he ate and he wanted to fully witness was Louisa was like when she was high.

Jenna giggled a bit at Matt, shaking her head at him. "Of course I play video games. What, did you think I just sat around and twiddled my thumbs in my spare time?" She said, nudging him. She was really having fun playing video games with Matt and she was glad that it seemed like he was having fun as well. "Those two sound like they can't play a game to save their life. No pun intended." Jenna played left for dead with Matt for a while before she eventually began to get bored with it, biting her lip and looking over at the stack of games that Matt had. She wouldn't mind eating some more weed brownies and playing a few video games with him. "How about we eat a couple of weed brownies and play some video games before we head to bed?" She suggested with a small smirk. Besides, Jenna wanted to know what it felt like to have sex while she was high off her rocker anyways. She got up, going over and shuffling through his games before she eventually picked one out. It was Call of Duty, a game that definitely looked like it was well loved in his collection and she knew had a zombies and regular game mode they could switch from. "Let's play this," she said as she switched games. Jenna stood up, going into the kitchen and snagging a brownie off the plate on the counter, leaning against it as she took a bite of it. She raised a brow as she looked down at Bella as she sat at her feet, staring up at her like she was just waiting for one to drop. "Oh no, you're not getting one of these," she said with a shake of her head. "You'll be running into walls and staring into the ocean for hours."

"Don't tell me what to do," Louisa said, sticking her tongue out at Zacky. She sat down on the couch while Zacky took Icky and Majesty outside, pulling a blanket over her lap. She played around on her phone until Zacky came back inside, smirking when she saw him standing in front of her with the plate of pot brownies. "Why thank you, darlin'," Louisa said, plucking one from the plate. She knew enough about edibles to know she needed to take things slow at first, so for now she would just eat one and see how that went. "You know, it's kind of weird that it doesn't taste any different," Louisa said, chewing her first bite. "Like, pot just has such a strong smell I just feel like it should taste different than a regular brownie." She shrugged her shoulders before she stuffed the rest of the brownie into her mouth. It was probably better that it tasted like a normal brownie. Because if it tasted like how pot smelled, it probably wouldn't taste very good. Louisa leaned against Zacky, wrapping her arm around his and pressing her face into his shoulder. "You're so warm," she mumbled. All men just seemed to radiate heat and that was just what Louisa needed right now. "So warm," she said again.

"They really can't," Matt agreed, smirking. He and Jenna played Left 4 Dead for a little while before she seemed to get bored of it. When she hit pause, Matt sat his controller as he watched her sort through his stack of games. At her suggestion, he smirked again. "Sounds like a plan to me, baby girl," he said. Matt liked having sex when he was high. For some reason it just made everything better. And the sex he had with Jenna was already so amazing, he was curious as to how much better it could actually get. He followed Jenna into the kitchen once she'd switched the games, reaching around her and grabbing a brownie from the plate. He noticed Bella standing there and nudged her away with his foot. "Nuh uh," he said through a mouthful of brownie. "Go away. You can't have any of this." Bella didn't seem to get the hint, so Matt quickly stuffed the rest of his brownie into his mouth before he lured her into the laundry room. "Alright little begger, you can stay in here until we're done," Matt said. He made sure she had food and water before he went back into the kitchen, snagging another brownie from the plate. "Alright, let's go smoke some teenagers on Call of Duty," he said, rubbing his hands together.
