Flesh Of The Blade

The Understanding

Mary's POV

We decided to make a stop for the night. We parked on a beach, the open windows of the car were bringing fresh air in, the sound of the waves were mix with the little noises that were escaping from Zacky's dry mouth. 

I stop the engine of the car and sit beside Zacky, I was looking at him in fright and sadness because I thought that he wasn't like the people that I escaped from. I just hope that he was really determined to quit all this shit. I was hurt too that I told him all my secret yesterday and yet he didn't tell me his own. How was I supposed to trust him?..

Suddenly Zacky started to shake nervously and violently, his head moving side to side on the pillow, his eyes shutting even tighter than before, 

"Mary! Please babe! No!" Zacky started to scream in a pleading way, like if he was scared. 

I took his hand gently and put it around my shoulder as I lay down by his side,

"It's okay Zee, it's only a nightmare" I whisper in his ear for him to wake up.

His green and tired eyes suddenly open, he look down at me realizing the I was by his side,

"Please Mary, don't leave me! I-I know I should of told you before but I was so scared to lose you" He said, tears were almost escaping from his tender eyes,

"I know Zacky, I won't leave you. Just tell me why you started taking the drugs you took" I ask him looking up to him.

He took a deep breath before he started to explain me, 

"It started when I was in high school, my parents wanted me to be a popular kid but I wasn't that type of person you know? So one time Brian and I got invited to a party and someone took me upstairs and everyone was doing coke, so that's when I started, because I wanted to be accepted by my parents and by everyone else. Brian totally disapproved it but at the time I haven't realized how much he was write. I was using all my money for this shit that I was sniffing down my nose. Shit, now I realized how stupid it was!   And then Brian decided to take me on a road trip cure to get rid of my addiction and I accepted his help, at first it was okay but I guess the effect just really started on my body" Zacky ended his story.

It was tearing me apart knowing that he did all this to himself just to please his dump parents, they were stupid to not see how awesome he is. 

"Do you really want to stop taking drugs?" I ask him, looking deeply into his eyes,

"More then anything else Mary" He softly told me, brushing some hair out of my eye.

I smile up at him, 

"Then there is no way I am leaving Zee" I finally told him crashing my lips on his, feeling that he got some energy himself. 

The kiss was passionate and we were both eager to finally discover our burning love for each other.

The car wasn't rolling but it was bouncing. ;)
