We Go Together (Zack Merrick/ATL)

Explaining

*Vi's POV*

I dragged Zack onto the bus, and luckily the guys were still up, because I accidently slammed the door. It caught their attention though.

"How was the- woah. Zack, dude, what happened?" Jack asked, the first to notice Zack's bloody knuckles.

"Long story short, our waiter smacked my ass, and he ended up with a broken nose." I said, holding in my laugher. "I'm gonna help him clean up. Do we have a first aid kit?" I asked, no one in particular. "There should be one under the sink in the bathroom." Rian answered. I nodded in response before I lead Zack to the bathroom. He sat on the toilet seat, as I looked for the kit. I found it, and took out that disinfectant spray, that hurts like hell, and that gauze wrap thingy.

"I'm shocked that you actually punched him. I mean I know you work out loads, but youre like a big, cuddly teddy bear." I said, hoping to take his mind off what was about to happen.

"Well he slapped your butt, no one touches my girl like that." He said.

"My girl?" I questioned, hoping to tease him. I think it worked, because his cheeks flushed red, and he stuttered trying to explain himself.

"I, uh- I didn't- uh shit."

"I was joking, I actually quite like the sound of that. And plus, you looked really hot tonight, I wouldve let it slide." I smirked.

"Is this your way of telling me to wear more shirts like this?" He asked.

I nodded, feeling confident. I had just finished wrapping his hand, when Alex barged into the small bathroom.

"Dude, we have a small issue." I looked at Alex with wide eyes, and then back at Zack.

"What happened?" I asked, standing up. Alex motioned for us to follow him, so we did. He sat us down on one of the couches, before placing his laptop in our laps. On the screen was a picture of me and Zack on our date. Whoever took this picture was definitely at the pizza place. They were far away, but you could clearly see our faces. "That's not too bad." I said, not seeing the big deal. "It just means that we'll have to tell people about whatever this is." I said, looking over to Zack.

"But there's more. This picture was also taken." Now I get why Alex was nervous about this. The photo was of Zack punching the waiter, and its obvious that he actually had. "Oh, uh, I'll call Matt, and tell him to set up an interview somewhere in California for Monday." Zack said, getting up and dialing Matts number.

"I bet you never thought Zack would punch someone huh?" Rian spoke up.

"Yeah." I laughed. "We were actually talking about this. He's like a big teddy bear, but I'm not gonna lie, it was hot. Seeing that side of him was actually pretty cool. My type of guy." I said, shrugging. I laughed at the guys' expressions. "Did you just call him hot?" Jack asked, laughing.

"Don't laugh, Mr Barakat. Don't act like I don't know about Merrikat." I said, making Alex and Rian laugh.

"You're just jealous I knew him first." He defended.

"Sure. But who did he just take out on a date? And by doing that, who did he just replace?" I smirked.

Alex and Rian let out loud ooh's.

"You win this one, Rose." I smirked.

I crossed my arms, and flipped my hair, over dramatically, I might add, before turning around. Zack walked up behind me, putting his hands on my waist. "I like the fiesty side of you, Vi." He whispered, before casually telling the guys that we had to do an interview in California. I faced the guys, my face bright red.

"Woah Vi, you look like a tomato." Alex laughed. "What happened?"

"Oh uh I was- I uh just thought if something, thats all." I attempted to lie.

I saw Jack lean towards Alex and not so quietly whisper to him. "She was thinking about fucking Zack later." They snickered, before everyone, including Zack laughed.

"You're just jealous Zack won't give you any, Barakat." I said, making the guys, once again, let out a loud "ooh"

"Ever heard of Merrikat? It exists for a reason." Jack confidently replied.

"I thought we went over this already. Zack left Merrikat for Ziolet. How does it feel, Jack?" This caused Alex to stand up, and yell "OOH BURN!"

"But i- but its not official!" Jack whined, trying not to laugh.

This time Zack stood up, walking over to me, kissing my cheek. "Sorry Jack, Merrikat is over." And with that, Rian stood up, laughing. "I recorded that whole thing. Its like I had a 6th sense. Wanna see it?" Rian said, focusing the question at me. I nodded. He came over to me, and showed me the video. He really did have a 6th sense. The video started off with me facing away from them, and then I turned around, my face red. "Send that to me?" I asked Rian. He nodded, and a minute later my phone buzzed, and another minute later I got a twitter notification from Alex.

"@alexalltimelow: don't underestimate @violet_marie's sass. #thesassisreal"

I laughed, giving alex a thumbs up. Jack joined in, tweeting as well.

"@jackalltimelow: @alexalltimelow @violet_Marie no kidding, she just humiliated me in front of my best friends! #unfair"

"@violet_Marie: @alexalltimelow I think you mean ass, not sass ;) and @jackalltimelow I'm sorry, sorry that you can't handle the sass."

My phone beeped two more times, and I saw that Zack and Rian tweeted their own things out.

"@zackalltimelow: that was the funniest thing I've ever been a part of! @violet_Marie"

"@riandawson: gosh, I love these moments. @violet_Marie you're a boss!"

I stood up, and bowed laughing.

I made the guys take a selfie with me. And captioned it.
"@violet_Marie: thanks for the memories, Oregon."

The guys and I decided to have a movie night, and we watched 'hours'. Paul Walker was in it, and it's about how a hospital went out of power due to a storm, and he had to take care of his baby by hand. Its actually kinda sad.

I've already seen this movie a bunch of times, so I went on tumblr. I went through my feed, and reblogged some concert pictures from the fans, and one thing caught my eye. It was the selfie that I posted an hour before and it said "so Zack really did punch a guy? :( I've lost respect."

When I saw that, I quickly sent out a tweet. "@violet_rose: before you guys hear the rumors, I wanted to clear something up. Yes, @zackalltimelow punched someone in the face, but I can tell you, it was for a good reason. He was defending me, from a douche who thought sexual harassment is cool. Don't go around saying he's a bad person for doing that, he did it to protect me, and it was self defense. Thanks everyone!"

I made the guys retweet it, because it wasn't fair that Zack was getting all this negative attention.

Going to bed that night, I thought of all the things that happened today. I met Ed Sheeran, out sassed Jack, went on another date with Zack, he punched someone, and then we finally relaxed. It was about 4 am, before we all fell asleep.

California, here we come! Again!

Shitty chapter, but I enjoyed writing it.
