I ran down stairs and saw Bethany sitting by herself on the sofa on her phone with the biggest smile on her face. Zach came in and she quickly turned it off and wiped the smile from her face.
I chucked in an annoyed way as I walked past.
"What?" Bethany asked in a annoyed tone as well
"Nothing, it's just the fact that it seems like you don't have a house of your own and you have basically moved into this one"
"Move along jealous bitch" she waved her hand and I saw Zach smirking.
I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen to find a distracted Jonah.
"HI JONAH" I screamed as I walked by him go get to the fridge.
Jonah phone went flying into the ground as he jumped a few feet out of his chair "Jesus y/n You can't do that to people"
"Oh well, sucks to suck" I sipped at my juice
Jonah just glared at me. " I'm bored entertain me" I draped myself over him from behind.
"Wanna watch a movie in my room?" He asked
"Yeah sure only if I get to pick"
He groaned "Ok fine"
"Riverdale!!" I screamed as I ran to his room
"That's not a movie!!" He followed me.
"Welp, it is now" I have him a cheesy grin as I grabbed the remote from his hand.
***
After about 4 episodes Jonah got annoyed and left, so I decided to go to Starbucks.
I walked down the stairs and put my shoes on. "I'm going to Starbucks" I yelled as I put my hand on the handle
"Can I come ?" I turned around and saw Zach start to stand up.
why does he want to hang with me now? "uh yeah sure, if you really want to" then I realized that Bethany wasn't there. oh that's why.
"great I will be ready in a sec." he ran upstairs and I sat on the couch next to Jonah.
"hey Jonah"
"hey"
"I hate you for leaving me"
"yea well, sometimes there is a thing called to much Riverdale and drama" i laid my head in his lap and he stroked my hair.
I gasped "you take that back"
he gasped, mocking me "no" he stayed silent for a moment "so going to hang with Zach?"
I sighed " yeah "
"you don't seem very excited, I thought you would be more into this" I sat up
"I am, I am really happy get to spend time with him, it just that...." I trailed off not knowing oof I should continue
"its what?" he looked confused
"I caught Bethany cheating on Zach and he deserves to know" Jonah sucked in a breath.
"how long have you known?"
" about a week"
"a week, why didn't you come tell someone the minute you knew!?"
"I didn't think anyone would want to know, plus I didn't want to hurt Zach"
"the longer this goes on, the more hurt he is gonna be, y/n you need to tell him today. before Bethany comes back" I laid back down on his lap and let him stroke my hair.
Zach came bouncing down the stairs looking the exact same as he did when he went up.
"Zach!" I whined as we walked to the car
"what!" he mocked my tone
"you look the same, did you even do anything"
"yeah, I parted my hair, went I went upstairs it was on the left, now it is on the right" I walked up to him and ran my hands through his hair and messed it up.
"now its in the middle" I laughed as he walked away and slid into the drivers seat if the car.
as we drove I kept thinking about how to tell him about Bethany, I didn't want to hurt him. but Jonah was right, the longer I keep this the more hurt he will be
we pulled up and got out. When we order he tried to pay for me but I smacked his wallet out of his hand and payed for both of our stuff while he was picking it up.
"why!?" he complained as we sat at a booth by the window
"ha!" I just laughed at me
"why didn't you let me pay"
"cause I have my own money and I don't need a man to pay for my stuff" I said in a duh tone.
he waved me off, our names got called and he stood up and grabbed it without hesitation. we sat there eating and drinking in silence. I could stop thinking about how to tell him.
*Zach's POV*
I walked down the stairs and saw y/n laying on Jonahs lap. I felt a ting of jealousy. she jumped up and put a smile on her face. as we walked to the car she began complaining about my hair. she always made me laugh, even when she does something that would make me wanna hurt some one, like mess up my hair.
she wouldn't let me pay for her, like a gentleman. she hit my wallet out of my hand and swiped her card before I picked it up. but i made it my mission to carry her food to the table for her. that seemed to make her mad.
we sat in silence, I don't think she noticed but I just sat there staring at her, I loved just watching her, she was so beautiful, she always looked so lost in thought, right now she looked very stressed.
"are you ok? you seem to be thinking very hard?"
she breathed in deep and sat up straighter. now she is kinda scaring me.
*y/n POV*
he asked me what was wrong. now I have to tell him. I breathed in deep and sat up straight, like that was gonna help me.
" I have something to tell you and I don't think you are gonna like it, actually, you aren't gonna like it."
he looked worried.
"I saw Bethany......" I trailed off
"you saw what?"
"I followed Bethany to this house, it wasn't her house, and I saw through a window that she was having sex with another guy." I said that last part really fast.
"you followed her home!" he look upset.
"did you here the last part? she is cheating on you! I even saw the messages on her phone"
"you went through her phone!?"
"I feel like you are listening to the wrong parts of this" was he really getting mad at me, he was supposed to be mad at her.
"I understand you hate her but I wouldn't even think that you would go as far as trying to frame her for something!" he gathered his stuff and stood up.
"she is cheating on you, are you even listening to me!?" he ignored me and grabbed the keys. why was he grabbing the keys, I wasn't leaving until we settle this.
"I thought you were better than that y/n" he walked toward the door
"I'm not coming with you until you listen to me!"
"you have your own money, call and uber" he walked out and drove to the light that was right outside of the parking lot.
"screw you Zach" I yelled in the heat of the moment
suddenly everything went in slow motion, Zach pulled into the intersection and the semi truck behind him suddenly jack-knifed and slid into the car with zach in it. Zach was shoved forward and rolled a few times before settling on its side on the shoulder.
I didn't hesitate, I ran out into traffic and to the car and saw the windows were shattered and the door was crushed into the car on the drives side, Zach was stuck in between the center console and the door, his head was bleeding and he was unconscious.
I pulled my phone out and called 911 and told them everything. I also called Corbyn.
"y/n, what's up" he asked in a chill voice.
"Zach was in an accident, he is bleeding bad and unconscious" I was crying bad and didn't know if I was making any sense
"were you in the car!?" he was alarmed
"no we got into a fight and he left without me but barely left the parking lot then hit a semi."
"k, I am on my way to pick you up and then we can drive to the ER together"
" ok hurry please!" he hung up and the paramedics ushered me away from the scene.
I stood there on the curb crying.
