"babe, what the hell was that?!" zion exclaimed as they walked into the house. the whole uber ride home was tense.

"what do you mean? she doesn't deserve any friends after what she did." karsen rolled her eyes.

"that doesn't mean you go up to her at a party and attack her like that! that was really rude, karsen." zion frowned at the girl.

"why are you taking her side?! last time i checked, she was the one that tried to break us up!" karsen yelled back.

"im- i'm not." zion said, calmly. "but what you did back there was unnecessary."

karsen rolled her eyes again. "whatever. order me an uber, i only have a temporary card right now and it hasn't been working. i'm going home."
(a/n LMAOOO IM SORRY I HAD TO)

zion nodded and pulled his phone out, ordering an uber to her house and kissed her cheek, "bye babe."

"bye." she said, and walked out the door.

zion sighed and walked up to his room.

how was he supposed to tell them that he lied? laela didn't deserve all the hate she was getting from them all. will he ever have the balls to do it?

i hope so, he thought. (a/n im sorry i just thought of the vine thats like "road work ahead" "well i sure hope it does" for some reason ok anyway)

zion rested his elbows on his thighs and put his head in his hands, stressed out.

"yo, z, we're go- woah, z you okay?" austin cut himself off. tears streamed down zion's face at this point as he shook his head.

"can you shut the door?" he croaked. austin did so and rushed to zion's side.

"what's wrong, buddy?" he asked, worriedly. it was rare for zion to cry. he was always so energetic and turnt, austin couldn't even remember the last time he saw zion sad.

"i made a mistake." zion whispered, loud enough for austin to hear. "oh god, what did you do?" austin questioned, concerned for his best friend.

"i- i lied about the laela situation. she didn't force herself onto me. i actually forced myself onto her, and she tried to stop me. but my wasted ass didn't stop and when karsen saw, i don't know, i panicked and said that she forced herself onto me." zion rambled, more tears falling out of his eyes.

austin was shocked. "why?"

"i seriously don't know. i think the alcohol messed me the fuck up because if i was sober i wouldn't have chosen karsen over laela. fuck, i hate myself." zion said as austin pulled him in for a hug.

"you probably hate me now. they're all gonna hate me when they find out." zion cried into austin's shoulder.

"shh. no, z. i don't hate you. the boys won't either. hopefully the girls too. i'm just disapponted. i'm sure the boys and girls will be too, but we won't hate you." austin mumbled.

they pulled away from the hug.

"when do you want to tell them?" austin asked. zion shrugged his broad shoulders. "i have no idea."

"that's okay. i'll be here to help you figure it out." austin reassured zion, patting him on the back and smiling at him.

"thanks, porter." zion slightly smiled back as austin got up. "anytime, kuwonu."

austin left the room and left zion alone with his thoughts yet again.
