I wanna feel weightless
Chapter 4
"Babe, it hurts me to see you like this, and crying." Zack spoke softly
There he goes again with those nicknames trying to make me feel better.
"We should p-probably go." I managed to sniffle out
"Do you still want to go?"
"Um...Yeah actually I think I do, you know I hate crying, I need to have some fun."
"Fine, but we are still going to talk about this later." He said, rubbing my thigh. He always knew how to make me feel better and he always put a smile on my face, I don't know why I have to always let him down.
*Two hours later*
"Party time!" We heard as we walked in the door, of course it was Jack, man, he sure knew how to party, especially since without even drinking he seemed drunk, so once you actually gave him alcohol he was a party machine.
"Zack! Lizzy! Y'all came!" He shouted every last word like we were hard of hearing
"Yeah, we need some fun tonight, right Liz?" Zack asked as he nudged my shoulder.
"Like as a couple? Like couple fun? Are y'all a couple now?" Jack shot out the questions like his life depended on it. I could be sure but it looked like Zack gave him a look to say shut up.
"No, Jack, we are just friends, okay?" I spoke slowly, making sure he got the point. He kind of made a sad face and then looked at Zack and ran his finger down his cheek to look like he had a tear. Why is Jack being so weird?
*Zack's POV*
"No, Jack, we are just friends, okay?" Liz said slowly.
Well that brought my mood down, Jack's too by the look of it, his face went from complete delight to someone died in 0.6 seconds, he then turned to me and pretended to have a tear, great Jack like she's not going to know now?
"I'm going to get a drink." I said to Liz, I hope she can't hear the sadness in my voice.
*Elizabeth's POV*
"That was so weird," I thought to myself, "Why did Jack do th-" my thoughts were cut short by Alex shouting my name and hugging me.
"Hey Alex, any idea why Zack and Jack are acting so weird?"
"What do you mean?" He asked looking anywhere else but at me. He knew what I was talking about, he was bullshitting, he was never good at lying, it was probably one of his only weaknesses.
"Um, okay I'm going to go out back and get some air." I needed some time alone I guess, I just didn't want to be around people right now, it was a mistake to come here, I should've known better, I never have fun at parties. When I got outside it was almost as crowded as the house, I decided to go find Zack and tell him I was leaving. My house is only two blocks over so I'll just walk. I ran into Rian first, he was unusually relaxed considering he freaks out at every little thing.
"What's up Rian? Have you seen Zack?"
"Hey Lizzy! Yeah last time I saw him he was looking for some medicine for a headache or something, I think he's in the kitchen. While you're in there you should get some punch, it's awesome!"
"Rian, how many of those have you had?"
"Like 6." We'll I guess I know why he's so relaxed.
"Thanks Ri, see ya later."
i walked around to the kitchen, bumping into every person I saw, "This is not a small party." I thought to myself. As I walked into the kitchen I saw something that made me want to throw, scratch that, made me throw up.
