Hurting More Than Once//Jachary COMPLETED

Chapter 19: Truth

JACK
The show was amazing. All of the screaming fans and the rush of adrenaline was awesome. I had felt something I hadn't felt since our last show and I really did miss it. The screaming had filed down once we got to Zach's favorite part, the meet and greet. We had all lined up in our original order and fans came rushing up to us. Normally everyone would got to Jonah and Zach or sometimes just Zach and take pictures but less people did that now, since they knew he was gay. We would get gusts from fans and this little girl came up to Zach and handed in a bracelet and a card. He thanked the little girl a hugger her tightly, seeing that she was the only one who gave him something. And normally he would get the most since he was closest to age with some of the fans. He took a picture with the little girl and she ran off with a giant smile on her face. Zach stood there, reading the card and admiring his bracelet and I stood there, watching him, making sure he wouldn't break down or something. I'm being a little more overprotective towards him since the incident before tour. I just don't want the same thing to happen again.

ZACH
The show was awesome, the meet and greet had taught me that not everyone will like you, and that's ok but some people will still show appreciation for who you are. I wore that bracelet the entire day and read the card while we were in the car. She was about 9 years old, and it was amazing how she didn't care that I was gay, she still liked me for who I was. I smiled at the thought as everyone was silently sitting in the Uber, probably anxious to go home  and sleep. We were all pretty tired and still had to get on a flight to Philadelphia. While we were performing, I saw Micah with his sister. They weren't too far from the front and I could spot his short, brown hair with one blue streak in it. I made friends with his sister who actually lives in LA, she looks similar to her brother, but she's a year younger and she has a purple streak in her hair. She was extremely kind and hugged me first. I got her number and we instantly became friends, even though we had just met. Jack was half asleep, his head leaning on his hand, as he was trying to stay awake. "Hey Jack?" I say. "Yea Zach?" He responds with a small glance towards me. "I got to tell you something when we get home." I whispered. "You can't tell me now?" He whispers back. "It's kind of, personal." I respond. He nods his head and faces towards me. We come to a stop and we all hop out of the car. Corbyn was in a better mood since he saw Christina and he was able to see her after too. She was leaning her head on his shoulder while my mom, brother, and sisters Uber pulled up. They were also at the concert and my mom was so proud. She had to go home in the morning but she said that she loved every single minute of being here. She kissed my forehead before she plopped down on her bed and falling asleep along with Ryan and Reese. Everyone went to their rooms and Jack finally asked me what was wrong when I closed the door. I lifted up my sleeve and tears started forming in my eyes. His eyes widened slightly but all he did was pull me into a hug. "You said you wouldn't do it anymore." He muttered. "I-I know and I feel like I've disappointed so many people and I was just thinking of my dad and it just happened. I'm so, so sorry that I didn't tell you that morning. I just didn't want to ruin your spirit and I would feel bad and I was afraid that you would be mad at me." I say with small sobs coming from my mouth. He just tightened the hug and whispered, " I will never be mad at you. You just have to come to me when something like this happens. Did you tell anyone else?" "Just Daniel." I whisper back. He lets go of me and goes to change. After he's finished he puts on his dorky glasses. I giggle at the sight of him. I don't understand why he thinks he doesn't look good with his glasses on. He looks 10 times cuter with them on. He does. I go to the closet and change as well and slip into bed, where Jack already was. He put his hand around my waist without warning a pulls me close to him. I bury my head into his chest as he lets out a small chuckle. I instantly fall asleep, his legs tangled up with mine, his hand on my waist protectively, it all felt, right. I know he just thinks of it as brotherly love but he doesn't know how I feel when he gives me a hug. It's like a zoo in my stomach. I just wish I could tell him.
