Zak's POV

I wake up to my phone ringing. Yawning, I rub my eyes and sit up, my phone falling off my lap onto the ground. I pick up the phone, accepting the call. "Hello?" I say tiredly. "Zak! Check the time! The party started 10 minutes ago, where are you?!" the voice of Zelk yells through the phone, hurting my ears. I pull the phone away from my ear and put it on speaker instead.

"Sorry Zelk..I'm on my way now," I say, mentally swearing and jumping onto my feet. "I'll be there soon, bye-" I quickly run to the edge of the woods and weave my way onto the road, breaking into a run. The sun was already starting to set, and I had to get there soon before Zelk yelled at me even more.

Soon enough I make it to Zelk's house, and make my way to the door. I pass drunk people yelling on the yard, couples making out on the porch, which is now a mess. I run my hands through my hair and open the already opened door to slip inside. The loud music hits my ears as I walk through the house, the all too familiar scent of alcohol filling my nose.

Eventually I find Zelk, and tap him on the shoulder. He swings around, a cup in his hand. "Skeppy! You're here!" he squeals like a child. I just nod and gulp. I look around the kitchen, seeing that there's only a few others in there.

"Here, take a drink!" Zelk offers me, stuffing a cup into my hand. I start to talk before a loud bang rings through the house, causing me to flinch and drop the cup.

I watch in slow motion as the liquid spills out of the cup, landing on the ground. And worst of all, I watch Zelk run and slip right on it.

He falls backwards, dropping the cup in his hands as well. He lands with an 'oof' and scratches his head. "Shoot- Zelk are you okay?-" I start to help him before the house erupts into screams and cheers.

Zelk quickly shakes his head and runs out of the room. I follow behind him, walking into a living room crowded with people. I push through the people into the front of the group.

And right in front of me, is Dave and Darryl fighting.
