33. Cabins Are Boring

Chapter 33: Cabins Are Boring

*~~Matt's P.O.V.~~*

Maddie and I finally finished our classes for the day. Juliet and Zack don't have classes on Friday...lucky them.

Maddie climbed into my car, "How's Zack?"

I pressed play on my phone and Not the Average American by Asking Alexandria came on, "Not good, but it's a good thing he has his own 'mini vacation'."

Maddie let out a sigh, "Same with Juliet, gosh they are so stupid. Juliet is just so stubborn at times, it was just a misunderstanding."

I let out a sigh, too, "A misunderstanding, which could've been avoided if one idiot threw his banana away."

Maddie cupped my face, "Oh darling it's not all your fault. Oliver sent a stupid text to her about how Zack is going to cheat and all. I bet it's just a prank. A dumb prank that caused two lovebirds to break up. I mean it's obvious Zack loves her, I tried to tell her but she won't budge. You know at night, she cries herself to sleep and sometimes comes to my room. In her sleep she calls out Zack's names. It's so obvious that Juliet misses Zack."

I paused the music, "What? Oliver did this? Freaking bullsh*t! It's his fault too then, that Zack almost died. Mother f--ugh!"

Maddie's eyes widened, "You're not blaming yourself that Zack almost died, are you?"

I gave her a nod, "It is and don't convince me that it's not. But I have a plan, why don't we go visit Zack?"

Maddie was confused, "What will that do?"

I grinned, "We're taking Juliet, I know a hotel near Zack's beach-cabin. Somehow we'll get Juliet to go the beach and she'll meet Zack there. And hopefully, they work things out. Oh we're here already? Go pack your bags and call Juliet. I'll be back in an hour, you know booking a room? It's going to be a long ride. Pack lots of foods, it'll take a day or two."

Maddie got out of the car, jumping up and down, "My boyfriend is a genius, even though we'll be skipping college, again, it's worth it." She kissed my lips, "I love you, see you in an hour." And off she went. I pressed play and drove off, I am a genius aren't I? Naw just kidding.

*~~Zack's P.O.V.~~*

"Tell me that you need me 'cause I love you so much.
Tell me that you love me 'cause I need you so much.
Tell me that you need me 'cause I love you so much.
Say you'll never leave me 'cause I need you so much.
Don't go, I can't do this on my own.
Don't go, I can't do this on my own.
Save me from the ones that haunt me in the night.
I can't live with myself, so stay with me tonight.
Don't go, I can't do this on my own.
Don't go (you're not alone)
Save me from the ones that haunt me in the night.
I can't live with myself, so stay with me tonight.
Don't go."

A sigh escapes my lips as I uncross my arms across my face. This is like my 30th time listening to this song today. I check the time on my phone, 10:38 PM...maybe I'll take a swim, I mean the sea is right in front of me. I stripped down to my boxers....boxers and trunks are like the same thing, right? Well it doesn't matter, not much people come to this beach at night.

I honestly don't know why Lisa sent me here, I mean shouldn't I be watched by people not left alone? Whatever, at least I don't have to do therapy crap.

*~~Juliet's P.O.V.~~*

I decide to take a walk on the beach, I do not need to hear Maddie's moans again. This place is really beautiful, Matt's a genius for booking the room. After a couple minutes, I reached the beach. There seems to be someone taking a swim, weird it's night time, that person will get sick.

As soon as our eyes meet, electricity was in the air. Those beautiful gray orbs that I love so much are now piercing through me. It's like he can see my soul. I don't know how long Zack and I just stare at each other, it feels like a century. Then Zack finally got out the water and asks in a cold tone, "What are you doing here?"

I was speechless, Maddie said that Zack almost died because he cut himself and overdosed, but he looks exactly the same to me, just a bit more thin and exhausted. He shouldn't be swimming in the salty water, I mean won't it hurt his cuts? I was about to answer when I felt something wet on my head. Shoot, it's raining and before I knew it, Zack was carrying me to his cabin.

Zack gently laid me down on his bed and started taking off my clothes. I was scared, I don't want to be raped. I kept repeating no to Zack, but he didn't budge and didn't say anything. When I was just in my undergarments, Zack took a deep breathe. I closed my eyes, covered my chest with my hands, and kept saying no. I didn't feel any hands and opened one eye and I thought I saw a pained expression on Zack's face, but it was replaced with a poker face too quickly.

Zack handed me a towel and one of his shirt, "Dry off, wear that shirt, and go to sleep. You have shadows under your eyes. I'll be in the bathroom, if you need me." And then he walked off. I was so embarrassed, I'm so stupid, why would I think Zack would rape me! I sighed and did as he told me.

*~~Zack's P.O.V.~~*

I can't believe Juliet thought I was going to rape her, that hurt me a lot. I would never do such thing to anyone. Freaking cold water isn't doing anything for Dan down there, I should've left her to strip by herself instead of doing it for her. I turned the knob off and put on my hoodie and sweats. I walk out and see that Juliet is still sleeping. She looks so peaceful...and she used to be my angel. I couldn't resist but kissed her forehead. I groaned, a forehead kiss isn't enough, I grabbed my IPhone and earbuds and walked out to my porch. Taking a seat, I pressed play, and Something by Escape the Fate came on. I kissed my inner tattooed wrist with Juliet's name with it and sighed, I guess I'll stay out here for the night.

*~~Juliet's P.O.V.~~*

Rays of sunlight hit my face, causing me to wake up. I get out of the unfamiliar bed, only to see that I was only wearing a shirt. Then I remember why I'm here, but I don't see Zack. However, I do see my clothes on a chair, I grab them and use the bathroom. Good thing there's extra toothbrushes. I walk into the kitchen and still no sign of Zack. I walk to the porch to see a sleeping Zack with earbuds. I couldn't help but kiss his lips.

Unfortunately that's when Zack decide to open his eyes, "Why are you kissing me? You classified me as the worst just a few days ago, Juliet." Zack got up and shook his head, "Do you want breakfast before you leave?" Zack's eyes weren't soft and full of love anymore, they were cold and angry...and a bit sad. He acts like I broke his heart and cheated, but it was him.

"No I don't need breakfast, I'm going to leave this place right now anyway." I was about to walk out, when he gripped my elbow.

"Don't bother, I'm leaving today anyway, I called Lisa last night. Now just go and enjoy your stay. I won't be a gentleman and drive you there, so go run."

*~~Zack's P.O.V.~~*

I lied again, I didn't make a call to Lisa. But the lie will turn into the truth, as I will leave today and call Lisa. My week should be up, I need to go back to work. And I would love to give Juliet a ride to her place, but I don't want to know if she came with a guy and I might lose control in the car. It hurts being near her and knowing that she's not mine.

Juliet glared at me and shook her elbow out of my grip. I released her arm without batting an eye, though sad at the loss of warmth. And I watched her walk away...from me....from my love life.
