Chasing Rainbows // Zach Herron

Chapter 14

The five boys that made up why don't we were doing an interview at Bella's office. She wasn't going to lie, she was too excited for it. She loved being able to be out places with Zach and for once to be affectionate and peaceful since the two were sixteen.

Zach and Bella haven't made their 'fling' official without the chance of people around them being angry. Bella was suspicious though, she was suspicious because zach was staying up at night. He wasn't sleeping, he was always on the phone, and no it wasn't always the 'manager'. He always seemed stressed out with whoever was on the other side of his mobile device.

Bella stood outside of the interview room, admiring Zach as he shook his leg while answering questions. She smiled sweetly at her pale love and held onto her necklace. Zach noticed her and sweetly smiled towards her, not making it obvious to the interviewer though.

Once the boys were done, they all gathered around the lounge area and all drank coffee, got chocolate, or in Daniels case water. They all were sitting there laughing and cracking jokes at each other while zach slumped standing up, walking away while having his phone pressed against his ears. Bella cocked her eyebrow and looked at the boys. They all shrugged.

By their actions, it caused Bella to get up and walk towards him, not knowing what possibilities were ahead. "Bella, maybe he just needs privacy" Jack said as he swiftly out his hand on her shoulder. She shook it off and began walking to wards zach. She noticed how he'd whisper over the phone and made sure no one could hear him.

"Zach?" Bella said sheeply. Zach stuck up his index finger signaling to just give him a minute. "We really need to talk" she said once again, eager to know who he was communicating with. "Fine, hey I gotta go." Zach said quickly hanging up the phone. He looked at Bella and gave her a smug look, one Bella didn't like.

"Who were talking to?" She asked calmly. "Why?" He asked back. "I'm just wondering, you've been off lately baby and I just want to make sure you're okay" she said as she walked closer to him. He pulled away from Bella and started walking back to the boys. "Zach, please." She pleaded.

"Why? Do you not fucking trust me or something, maybe I'm going around getting other girls pregnant?" He snapped on her making Daniel gasped while Jack and Jonah shot up. "Zach-"

"No, you're being nosey. Do you not trust me? That's pathetic, but so are you." He spat towards his 'girlfriend' and started to slowly back up, crashing into Corbyn. "Dude watch it" Corbyn sneered at Zach. "What's going on with you?" Bella asked.

"See, you're being nosey once again" he said again frantically throwing his hands up in the air causing Bella to jump backwards. "I'm just worried, it's fine if you don't want to tell me who you're talking too, just promise me you're okay." She said softly.

"It's not your concern, we aren't even dating." He said shooting daggers into Bella heart. She whispered an "okay" and started to walk away but was pulled back by Zach. "Emily's trying to take my kids away, my fucking kids. I take care of them, I feed them, clean them, change them, pay for everything. She hasn't done a damn thing except leave them. That's all she's good for, leaving." He said obviously angry towards the world.

"Zach, I didn't know" Bella said sympathetically. "I don't need your sympathy, Isabella." Zach spat out after a minute of silence and left the building.
