Zachs pov
I'm really worried about y/n. She wasn't at school today and she's always at school. She's been acting weird ever since I said that i liked Kay Cook, which was a lie. It hurt lying to her but she doesn't feel the same. She likes some Wyatt guy.
After school the only thing I thought about was her. The only thing I've been thinking about is her, I'm even losing sleep. I texted her friend Brianna and she gave me y/n's address. I just walked since she doesn't live that far from here, and I need the exercise. I decide to throw rocks at her window. I threw rocks at the only window that had lights on, hoping that it's hers. She opens the window and smiles a little, but then she frowns.
Back to your pov*
"Zach what are you doing here?" I ask him. He smiles up at me.
"Well you weren't at school and you didn't answer me when I texted or called so I got Brianna to give me your address. Are you okay?" I shrug.
"Honestly Zach, no. There's a lot going on and I uh I'm just confused and tired of feeling what I'm feeling." I say frowning. He frowns too. Then he starts to climb the tree by my window! I gasp
"Zach what are you doing? Your gonna fall, get down!" I demand. He shAkes his head no.
"I'm coming up y/n" he says. I sigh. A few seconds later he climbs through my window. I just stand there watching him. He walks to me and hugs me again. God I love this. I smile then frown. He likes Kay so shouldn't he be at her house, confessing his love or something? Or does he actually like me and lied about it? I sigh and pull away, I walk to my be and sit, looking at the ground. He comes and sits next to me.
"Y/n you can tell me anything." He says "I'll listen" I sigh again and shake my head.
"You can't help Zach. It's complicated." I say as I play with my fingers. He gets up and crouches down in front of me. He takes my hands in his and kisses one of them. My heart melts at his touch. And oh god, his lips are so soft. "Y/n, tell me." He says. I frown more.
"I can't Zach" I say as a single tear rolls down my face.
"Please." He begs and wipes my tear away. I look at him and he gives me a sad face. I smile a little. Then stop.
This is part of why I'm so sad. He says he likes Kay but he's with me. He's trying to help me and he hugs me and just I don't know. He confuses me but if I'm confused with him I don't care.
"It's this guy." I say. He frowns. "Wyatt?" He asks. I shake my head no. He looks at me confused.
"Then who?"
"Zach I can't tell you. It's private." He sighs and sits back on my bed. He wraps his arms around me and lays us back. I'm practically sitting on his lap and I feel my face go tomato red. "Then tell me what's not private" he says. I look up at him and see he's looking down at me. I rest my head on his shoulder and begin to talk.
"This guy, he's really nice and cute and sweet but I don't think he likes me. He goes to our school actually. But anyway we're friends but he likes someone else but at the same time he always hugs me and stuff and I get mixed feelings. It's not that I don't enjoy his hugs, cause of course I do, they're the best hugs ever, it's just I wish he would tell me how he really feels, ya know?" I close me eyes as I finish but open them again when he starts to talk.
"Well y/n, that guy is a fool if he doesn't like you." Then your calling yourself a fool I thought as he continues on "but if he's so confusing and makes you sad he needs to know. You should tell him. Let him know your hurting and try to resolve it. Actually I think you should text him and tell him now." He says as he lays his head in mine. Awwwww. He melts me heart, but also hurts it. He says that's guys a fool and that he needs to know how I feel. But he doesn't know that it's him, if he did I'm almost positive he would be saying totally different things.
"I'm gonna go to the bathroom, but I'll think about it. Stay here." I say as I get up and head to my bathroom. When I get in I close the door and lock It. I grab my phone from my pocket and sit on the counter. I'm gonna text Zach and tell him the truth.
I'm not sure why I can't just say it to his face. Maybe it's because I've been hurt and I don't want to see the look on his face when I tell him, cause I can guarantee his face will not be showing happy emotions. Or maybe it's just cause I'm kinda shy and I don't want to lose him as a friend. I unlock my phone and start to type the message.
Hey Zach, so I'm just gonna say it: I like you. I have for a while now and it hurts that you don't like me back but it's okay. I'm not mad, just sad. I can understand why you like Kay and not me. She prettier and smarter and more outgoing. But enough about her, she's not the point of this message. You are. I know you don't like me but you make me so happy and it's kinda crazy the way you make me feel. And I actually don't even have a brother. I made that up. And I made that "Wyatt" guy up too. Sorry I lied, I just don't want you to know but obviously now you do. And I'm sorry if I confused you with my rambling in my room, it's just you say you like Kay but you never even look at her. And I mean you hanging with me not her so that gave me hope, but with hope comes doubts and my doubts are weighing in more than the hopes. Anyways, I understand if you don't want to talk to me anymore I understand, I just had to get that off my chest. I'm sorry I told you this. ✨
That's what I typed. I hit send and jumped off the bathroom counter. I unlocked the door and walked back in my room. Zach was asleep on my bed. I laughed Lightly. How could he have fallen asleep that fast? He !just have been really tired. He phone buzzed, indicating he got my text. He stirred and woke up.
"Huh, wha?" He said confused. I giggled.
"Zach you fell asleep silly. Go home and sleep in your bed. I'll see you tomorrow at school, thanks for listening." I said. He smiled and got up. He tucked his phone in his pocket without looking at it. Good, I won't have to see how face when he reads my message. He headed towards the window. I smile.
"Zach go downstairs. Just lock the door before you go out." He turns and chuckles. He gives me a side hug and heads down. I hear the door open and close. I'm alone again.
