"Alexa he kissed another girl"

I didn't know what to think when Zach said Austin kissed another girl. Who was the girl? How drunk was he?
It doesn't matter how drunk he was Alexa he kissed another girl!
Tears were falling from my eyes so I was driving slower than the speed limit.
I finally got to the house where the party was being held. I pulled up to the front and saw Zach and Austin sitting on the grass. Zach saw me and smiled sadly, he dragged Austin up since he wasn't capable of doing it himself. Austin was stuttering and say non sense.
"Bro Zach! Hey how you doing?" Austin said clearly drunk out of his mind.
"Shut up" Zach said and dragged him to my car.
"No I don't want to leave I was having fun!" Austin slurred. He started pushing Zach. I realized Zach was getting mad so I finally said something.
"Austin get in the car." I said, I got out of the car and helped Zach. Austin continued to push us away from the door and that's when I finally lost it.
"Austin get in the freaking car now!" I snapped at him.
Zach and Austin were clearly surprised by my yelling. Even though Austin was drunk he knew he was in trouble so he walked to the car with Zachs help.
We finally got him into the back seat with his seatbelt on. He was already passed out and snoring.
I sighed and shut is door.
"Come here." Zach said bringing me into a hug. I was crying again but more full on than before. Zach was rubbing my back as I continued to cry.
"I know this won't help right now, but Austin clearly didn't know what he was doing, and I know that doesn't make it okay but just still." Zach said trying to reassure me.
We separated apart and I wiped away my tears. I nodded and got into my car. Zach leaned into the car and kissed my forehead.
"Please call us. Okay?"
I nodded and said bye.

I didn't actually know what to do when I got home. I couldn't bring him inside because my parents would kill me, and I couldn't take him home because his mom would kill him.
I parked in the local parks parking lot and decided to stay here for the night. I found a half filled water bottle and some pills in purse for my cramps and headaches. I got those ready for Austin. I wanted to so badly go back there and hold him, but I knew I couldn't because he hurt me.
I fell asleep in the drivers seat very uncomfortably.
Not sure how long I was asleep but the sun was barely coming up when I heard Austin groan. I turned around and threw the water at him. He groaned again and drank it all. I passed him the pill and he dry swallowed it.
"I'm going to take you home." I said, turning on the car.
"Are we going to talk about it?" Austin asked.
"Austin not right now." I replied turning out of the parking lot.
"Alexa I need to talk to you about it." Austin begged. I kept silent not wanting to talk about it.
"Alexa" Austin kept bugging me.
I slammed on the breaks and turned around.
"Austin there's nothing to talk about okay! You kissed a girl! You were drunk you didn't know what you were doing, but that doesn't make it okay! So I'm going to take you home and drop you off and we are going to take a break because you hurt me Austin. I love you and you hurt me!" Tears were streaming down my face at this point and I felt horrible.
I finally got to Austin's house. I dropped him off without saying bye and I started crying even more.

It was around 7 in the morning when I finally got home. I tiptoed upstairs, I didn't want to be questioned by my parents as to why I was getting in so late or early I guess. I couldn't go to sleep because there were so many thoughts going through my mind.
I decided to call Zach even though it was early and he was probably asleep. I called him up and the third ring he picked up.
"Alexa are you okay?" Zach said sounding wide awake.
"Hey, did you go to sleep?" I asked wondering if he was at least hungover from the party.
"No I've been worried all night wondering if you were okay."
"Oh. Well I'm fine." I didn't want to keep him up knowing he hates when he doesn't get his sleep.
"I know you're lying." He chuckled a little.
I didn't answer for a few seconds.
"Zach I need you." I choked out, trying to swallow the lump in my throat.
"I'll be right there." He hung up and I laid in bed wondering what was going to happen between Austin and I.

There was a knock on my bedroom door ten minutes after Zach and I's conversation.
"Come in." I called out.
Zach opened the door and walked in shutting the door behind him. I moved over to one side of my bed so Zach could lay down next to me.
"Hey." He said getting comfortable in my bed.
I turned on my side so I could see him, he did the same so we were face to face.
"Hi." I replied back.
Zach pushed some stray hairs behind my ear and left his hand on my cheek for a second.
"I'm sorry. I should've kept an eye on him, I know how he gets when he has something to drink."
I wanted to interrupt him but he continued.
"I could've stopped him Alexa. I could've stopped him from breaking my best friends heart."
"Zach please it wasn't your fault. Austin knows how he gets too." I said trying to reassure him.
Zach forced a smile and just stared at me.
"Have you slept?" He asked.
"Yea for a little though." I said.
"Go to sleep. I'll wake you up in a little."
I nodded and cuddled closer to Zach.
