When The Seasons Change. [closed]

Zandra looked at him, "You're fine. You didn't do anything wrong." She said shrugging. She relaxed on the couch with him once she finished the beer. She was actually pretty tired. She rested her head on his shoulder then heard Zacky yelling. "Uh oh." She said.

---

Zacky looked at her, "Of course you will go home. I got you where you wanted to go. Isnt that what you use me for? To get what you want?" He snapped.

@ dance macabre

Brian frowned and looked up at the ceiling. "Don't worry, Zackys as harmful as a house fly. He's not gonna do anything." He leaned over on the couch and pulled Zandra up on his chest. "Getting tired?" He smiled.

---

Mel frowned and just bit her bottom lip as it started to tremble and her eyes started to burn with tears. She didn't know what to say to him. "I didn't mean to come off like that-" Her voice came out in a hushed whisper. "I know I was mean to you, I just didn't want to let you in. I didn't want to get hurt."

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra nodded, "Yea I'm pretty tired. I vote next time we skip the party." She said, laughing softly. She did like seeing his band play though. She liked to watch him on stage.

--

Zacky sighed, "So what your mean to the guy that wants to be nice to you and fuck the one who is an asshole? Seems like a good way to get hurt to me." He said, realizing she was crying. "I'm sorry. Dont cry." He said, shaking his head.

@ dance macabre

Brian smiled, "Did you really like the show?" He asked. "Not gonna lie, I was nervous knowing you were in the crowd..." He always managed to impress other girls easily with how well he played the guitar, but he didn't care about them. He did however, want to impress Zandra.

---

Mel frowned, "I thought that's what you were trying to do!" Tears streaked down her face. "And all I did was compliment his fucking voice and next thing I knew, his lips were on me!" She frowned, feeling like all of her thoughts were just racing a mile a second. Part of her had wanted to let loose and have fun with Matt, because she found him sexy, and because she hasn't had fun in so long and she let that side win and she felt like an idiot for it.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra smiled, "I did like it." She said. "You are really good." She said. She rested her head on his chest as they laid there. She was glad that she had given Brian a chance. He turned out to be a very decent guy.

---

Zacky shook his head, "Plenty of people like his voice and they don't fuck him so clearly you liked him Mel." He said as he looked down at his hands. He had to just get use to the fact that she wanted Matt over him and he would move on.

@ dance macabre

Brian smiled and wrapped his arms around her. "Do you want to get out of here?" He asked. He wasn't sure when or even if Zackys parents would come home, but the last thing he wanted was to pass out on his couch.

---

"You're not listening to me!" Mel frowned and just ran her hands through her hair. "I don't know what came over me, but it was a mistake. I regret it." She iterated to him, but it didn't seem like it was getting through.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra nodded, "Yea we can do that." She said. She sat up with him and grabbed her jacket. She bit her bottom lip lightly as she waited for him to get his things. She didn't know who's house he wanted to go to and she really didn't care where they went.

---

Zacky looked at her, "I get it you wish you didn't do it." He said, not wanting to fight with her anymore. He didn't know why it bugged him so much, but it did.

@ dance macabre

Once Brian grabbed all of his things, he picked up his keys from the table and looked up towards the staircase, hoping Zacky was alright. He just shook his head when he heard more loud voices and just headed outside to his car. "We can go to my place if you'd like." Brian realized he hadn't taken her there yet. His mom worked third shift at a factory, she was always gone every night.

---

Mel continued to lean against the wall and shut her eyes for a minute. She heard a car start outside and knew Brian and Zandra were leaving. "I'm gonna walk home." She whispered, "It's late, I need a shower." She pulled herself off the wall and wiped her eyes one more time.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra smiled, "Okay." She said. She got in the car with him and once they got to his house she walked inside, watching as he turned the lights on. She looked at him, before following him to his bedroom. She normally didn't go to a guys house because she didn't like to feel out of control of things.

---

Zacky shook his head, "no it's too late for that. Just stay here. You can shower and stay in the guest room if you want." He told her. He didn't want her to feel uncomfortable and he didn't want her walking home alone.

@ dance macabre

Brian knew his place wasn't nearly as nice as any of his friends. His mom was a single parent, and she worked her ass off, but she still didn't make nearly as much money as his friends parents did. So his place wasn't as big, but it was nice and cozy. He grabbed them some water bottles from the kitchen and led her upstairs to his room. "Well this is it. Its kind of messy, but I wasn't expecting company." He laughed.

He had a few pieces of clothes scattered across the floor, his bed wasn't made, and a few empty water bottles were strewn across the room, and now that he looked at it, he was a little embarrassed. He rubbed the back of his neck and looked over at Zandra, "If I knew I would've been bringing you here, I definitely would've cleaned up..." He laughed sheepishly.

---

Mel frowned and looked up at Zacky, if tonight's events hadn't went the way they had, she would've been chewing him out for trying to tell her she couldn't walk herself home this late, but considering she was in tears and felt like shit, she was just going to let it pass.

"Do you have some clothes I can borrow?" She asked.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra looked at him, laughing softly, "It's okay. We can all be as OCD as me." She teased him. She sat down on the edge of his bed, noticing all the posters and his guitars in the corner. "So where are your parents?" She asked him. She bit her bottom lip lightly when he mention it just being his mom. Of course she would sound like an asshole. Though she lived with only her mom as well so she was not one to judge.

---

Zacky nodded, "Yea." He said. He got into his closet and pulled her out a tshirt, handing it to her. He walked her to the guestroom and showed her the bathroom and everything she needed. "Let me know if you need anything else."He said before he walked away and went back to his room.

@ dance macabre

Brian kicked his shoes off and pulled his shirt over his head. "It's just my mom so I don't see her much. She's always working at night, and always sleeping when during the day so. And I haven't ever even met my dad, so nothing really to miss there." He laughed. He pushed his jeans down and threw them in the hamper across his room. "Do you want to borrow some of my clothes? So you can be a little more comfortable?" He asked.

---

Mel frowned and walked into the bathroom, turning on the hot water and stepping in. She wasted a lot of time in there, staying under the water until it started to run cold. Getting out, she towel dried her hair and pulled her panties back on then threw on Zacky's shirt. She folded up all of her other clothes and laid them on the bed in the guest room. She didn't like feeling so alone in an empty, strange room, so after gathering up the nerve, she walked back to Zacky's room and knocked on the door before peeking inside. "Can I just stay in here...?" She whispered.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra nodded as he listened to him explain about his mom. "Yea that is fine." She said, taking the shirt he offered her. She took her clothes off, unhooking her bra and taking it off. She didn't want to sleep in one at all. She pulled the shirt on that he gave her then climbed into his bed with him.

---

Zacky looked over as Mel opened his door. He was already in bed and watching a movie. "Sure." He said. He didn't want to upset her anymore. He scooted over so she could get in the bed and then relaxed with her. He watched the movie that was on and didn't say anything. He really didn't know what to say to her anymore.

@ dance macabre

Brian yawned and took her clothes for her and balled them up before setting them in his computer chair. He grabbed his TV remote before crawling into bed and turning it on to the scifi channel and letting some cheesy movie play. "I'm glad you're letting me into your life." Brian smiled, "For a moment there, I really didn't think you were going to let me in."

---

Mel crawled into the bed behind him, not wanting to get in the way of his sight of the television. She curled up in a ball, leaving a small space between them in the bed. Even though the moment she started to fall asleep, she subconciously scooted closer and wrapped her arms around his torso.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra looked over at him once she was comfortable under his blankets. "Yea well I figured you weren't so bad." She teased him. She snuggled up to him and watched the movie for a little before she fell asleep on him.

---

Zacky felt Mel wrap her arms around him and he closed his eyes, falling asleep. He woke up the next morning and looked over, seeing that she was still snuggled up to him. He chuckled and ran his fingers through her hair. He knew that she probably didn't want to spend more time with him after the night before.

@ dance macabre

Brian was used to staying up all night long, hence why he was usually late to school every single day. In the morning, he was stirred awake when he felt Zandra moving around. He opened his eyes, trying to blink the sleep out of them, as he turned to look at the time. "Shit, I can give you a ride home so you can get ready for school." He yawned.

---

Mel felt Zacky's fingers running through her hair, and she opened her eyes and looked up at him. It took her a minute to realize where she was and then it took her another minute to realize she was cuddling up to him. She let go of his waist and scooted away, "Hey..." She rubbed her eyes and grabbed her phone from next to her on the bed. "Well, guess I'm going to be late today, too." The last thing Mel wanted to do was go to school after last night.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra laughed a little, "You go to school on time? I'm shocked." She joked smiling at him. She pulled her on jacket, "I would like that though." She said, smiling. She waited for him to get ready, then walked downstairs with him and went to his car.

---

Zacky chuckled, "It's a lot better than being there on time I will tell you that." He teased her. He sat up and rubbed the back of his neck, "I can take you home if you want." He told her, looking back at her.

@ dance macabre

Brian just shook his head playfully and got ready in time to drive her home. Once he pulled up in her drive way, he cut the engine off. "I'll wait out here for you." He smiled leaning back in his seat and pulling out his phone.

---

"That'd be nice." She told him, getting up and pulling on her pants from last night. About forty minutes later, they were back at her place, and she ran inside quickly to get dressed. From how shitty she felt, today was definitely a lazy day. She just threw on some eyeliner and some black leggings and her hair up in a bun and came back out to Zacky's car.

@ Gunslinger;

Zandra walked into her house and got ready then grabbed her bag for school. She walked out and got into his car, "Alright let's go." she said, running her fingers through her hair as he drove.

---

Zacky waited for her then headed to school. He was surprised to see Brian there. At least he wouldn't be alone to suffer through the morning. "I really am tempted to sleep in my car." He told Mel as they got out of it. He didn't want to go to class at all.

@ dance macabre

Brian looked over at her as she got back into his car, "You look nice." He smiled as he took off towards their school.

Once they got there, he looked around, not used to being there before class started. The halls were filled with people just hanging out at their lockers, when usually the halls were dead empty when he came strolling through. He noticed he was getting some weird looks from a few different girls as he walked through the crowd with Zandra.

---

Mel chuckled when he pulled into a parking spot, "Well, if you decide to do that, I won't rat you out." She grabbed her bag from the backseat and got out of his car, throwing it over her shoulder. "Uhm, maybe I'll see you at lunch...?" She wasn't sure if he would even want to talk to her anymore, for all she knew, he could start ignoring her immediately after she walked away from his car.
