✔︎ Simple Beginnings || Zach Herron

<22>

"Nerf Battle!" All their heads snapped in my direction ready and excited for this war. The first thing each of them did was find a partner, Corbyn and Jack, Jonah and Daniel which left Zach and me. We then went off into their storage room filled with guns, ammo and many other things that could be useful for this type of battle. Zach and I grabbed two guns each and as many bullets as we could carry. We were the last to leave the storage room which meant the other groups had already found their bases, I followed Zach upstairs to Corbyn's place and set up camp.

"should we go out and hunt the others?" Zach inquired, I nodded, we slowly got up and left the room. Zach and I went back to back making sure we had each angle of attaching covered on each other; we slowly crept down the stairs to hear Corbyn and jonah shooting back and forth. We both stood away until one of the guys were out. Not knowing who we both ran into the kitchen and started firing. After a loud scream came from Corbyns mouth, we knew Jonah was out and not Corbyn too, which left Daniel and jack.

Zach and I looked at each other in accomplishment, with pride on our faces we knew Daniel and Jack couldn't be too difficult to kill. The only problem is they are both alone, which means fining them one by one.

"lets just split up," Zach thought, but we could both be killed off and loose much easier. "It wouldn't hurt to try." I nodded, and Zach signalled us to go upstairs. I went left, and Zach went right. I crept around each corner carefully knowing whoever was over here was much faster and stronger than me, most likely because I'm a short teenage girl. As I reached where the bonus room was, I could feel someone in the room with me. As I walked around the feeling got stronger each step I took. Right as I reached the bookshelf on the far side of the room, I heard screams coming from behind me and out popped jack from the backside of the couch.

I ducked just in time to miss his first few bullets and crawled around fast enough for him to lose him quite a bit more. I jumped to my feet aiming my gun directly at jack knowing he was done for; he raised his hands slowly and carefully making sure he knew I was in charge in this situation. Jack smirked confusing me and before I knew it something hit me in the back of my head. I spun around to see Daniel laughing at what just happened, I scowled dropped my gun and stormed downstairs.

P: Zach

P: They got me, you're my last hope.

Z: oh god, ill try <3

P: stawwwpp

As I waited in the kitchen for the game to end I went onto my phone and scrolled through Instagram because I had nothing else to do at this point; Jonah and Corbyn were playing FIFA of the Tv, I was not very interested in that game, so I stood in here. As I locked my phone and placed it onto the counter there was a sudden yell from upstairs, I couldn't tell who it came from, but as I peered over the corner, I saw Daniel walking down the stairs in shame. I laughed, and he growled, sticking my tongue out I picked up my phone knowing We might be able to win.

Twenty minutes passed, still nobody has come downstairs claiming the game is over, I got up and looked over to the other guys who were just on their phones looking at either Instagram or Twitter at this point. I ran upstairs hopefully getting one of the boys to come out but there was nothing, I looked around the bonus room, nothing then each of their rooms; still nothing. I got worried and looked in the last few places they could be, I checked the study and the balcony yet there were no signs of them. As I was walking down to the other boys, I heard a shuffle coming from the storage room.

I slowly unlocked the door to see two boys practically on top of each other crowded around a box of Oreos and other snacks. "really guys," I whined, "I've been damn bored waiting for the game to end and you're both just sitting here eating snacks?" Jack's muffled voice said sure, I rolled my eyes and looked over to Zach. He grabbed his nerf gin, pointed it at jack and within seconds shot him in the head. Jack turned to Zach in complete anger.

"bro! I gave you cookies!" Zach and I laughed, and we all went downstairs. I stood over Jonah looking at the game of FIFA still being played. I smirked and had a brilliant idea, I swiftly pounced over the chair into jonah lap unexpectedly and just sat there. At first, he was confused but then grabbed my waist and kept his warmed hands placed there. I blushed, but as I looked over my shoulder, I saw Zach with a hint of rage or jealousy in his eye as he looked straight at Jonah who was utterly oblivious because of the video game being played.
