I carried Mark's limp body home and placed him on his bed. I don't know what to do so I called Travis.

"Hello?"

"Travis I need you, like now!"

"I'll be at your door in a jiffy!"

"I swear you're so stupid!" I exaggerated.

He chuckled and hung up. Literally two minutes later he knocked on the door.

"What do you need me for?" He asked.

I pointed to Mark.

"Fuck, did he get drunk at a party?" Travis asked.

"No you dipshit!" I exclaimed. I explained to him what happened.

"Oh... How are we supposed to wake him up?" He asked.

"That's why I called you." I said.

"I'll call Zach. He'll know what to do." Travis said.

"No! You know I can stand that kid." I said.

"Ooh. Does someone have a little crush?" He asked.

"No way, Travis!" I yelled and slapped him on the shoulder.

"Then I'm calling him." Travis stated.

I rolled my eyes and paced back and forth like a weirdo.

Several minutes of pacing later...

"It's about fucking time you got here asshole." I snorted when Zach walked through the door.

"What's your problem?" He asked.

I pointed to Mark once more and asked Travis to tell Zach my story.

"Oh my god, are you okay?" Zach asked after hearing about my "adventure"

"Do I look dead to you?" I asked.

"I was just trying to be nice. You don't have to act like such a bitch all the time, Emily."

I looked down at the floor, then back up at Zach.

"Can you just help me?" I asked.

He gave me a look, then gave in.

"I guess I should go now." Travis said. "I'm not going to help anyway so bye!"

"So what now?" Zach asked.

I shrugged.

"Maybe we should start with figuring out how he was put to sleep. I'll go inspect him." Zach said.

I nodded and walked to my bed. I watched Zach take a look at my brother. Then he signaled for me.

"Can you get me a glass of water so I can try to wake him up?"

"Sure." I said.

When I got the water, I slipped and the water spilled on the floor. Nice...

"Em are you okay?" Zach asked as he helped me up.

"Yeah. I'm fi-"

Our eyes met. He pulled me closer and our chests were touching. My arms wrapped around his neck as we just stood there staring at each other. Zach finally leaned in and our lips were centimeters apart. Then Travis walked in.

"Hey guys did I leave my- oh!" He exclaimed.

I quickly pulled away from Zach's embrace as my face turned bright red.

"I-it's not what it looks like!" Zach exclaimed.

"Dude, calm down. I know you guys like each other." Travis said with a smirk.

"No!" Zach and I yelled in unison.

Travis laughed and walked out.

Zach scratched the back of his neck while I awkwardly stared at the floor.

As if on cue, Mark woke up.

"W-where am I?"

"Oh my god... Mark!" I yelled.

||Zach's POV||

We almost kissed.

I almost kissed the girl I bother and pester and she didn't pull away until we were interrupted. Does she like me? Argh Travis!

Well maybe he knows something...
