Tori's POV
   I woke up to the nurse peering over my head. "Ah sweetheart you're awake." She says.

    I sit up and she moves out of the way. "What happened?" I ask. "Well what I'm assuming is that you became very stressed and then passed out, has anything been on your mind." She says.

   "No nothing." I lie. "You're lucky that your friend was there to catch you before your head hit the ground." She says writing stuff on her clipboard.

    "What friend." I ask confused. "Ummm..... Zach Herron I believe." She says. Oh great.

   I roll my eyes to prevent the tears. "May I leave now please." I ask. "Yeah but just take an ice pack." She says.

   I nod, grab the ice pack, and walk out of the office. I look to my left and there is Zach standing up faster then ever.

   "Oh thank God you're okay." He says trying to pull me into a hug. I back away.

   "Don't fricken touch me." I Say. He looks confused. "And don't play dumb with me either." I say and try to walk past him.

   He grabs my arm and pulls me into him. "I said don't touch me." I say and pull away from him.

   "Tori please just listen to me." He begs. "No." I say plainly with no emotion. He grabs my hand once again.

   "I said let go!" This time I shout it. He releases his grip and looks stunned.

   "Listen I'm sorry that this is hurting you, I know it hurts I know. Because it's hurting me too. A lot. I actually truly like you and you don't give two shits. I fricken stood up for you, supported you, I fricken did everything for you and you can't even remember my fucking name." I say with tears falling. By now I was right up close to his face.

   I put my finger on his chest. " and don't you ever say that you are hurting more than me, or that I caused this because I-" I was cut off by Zach kissing me.

   I kissed back because...because....because well I can.  I'm a girl and I have my needs to but this was absolutely wrong.

We stayed kissing for about a minute, it was so romantic and then he pulled away. My eyes were still closed and my hands were in his.

We stayed silent for a little until he broke it. "Listen Tori, I know you are hurting, way more than me. And I'm sorry that I hurt you I am I truly am. But just know that I will wait for you and always be here. Please forgive me." He says.

Oof. Welp here come the feelings. "Listen Zach I know you didn't mean to hurt me but you still did. I've never had a boyfriend and you were the closest thing to it, and I thank you for the experience. I don't know what we are but I am doing what I want right now so I can be drama free, I'll see ya later Zach." I say and start walking off.

"Wait how will you see me later?" He asks. "Oh, I'm going to Jonah's party." I say and walk away.

    Yes, Jonah. Why again? Because he offered me a ride and I can do what I please.

   I'm done getting bosses around by people, especially Zachary Dean. I hear a horn and skip down the stairs.

   "Um sweetie, where are you going, and dressed like that?" My mom stops me. "I'm going to a party." I say walking closer to the door.

   "Please cover up." She says throwing a hoodie at me. "Fine." I say and slip it on. "I love you." She says. "Love you too bye." I say and jog out the door.

    Jonah rolls down the window. "Damn." He says and looks me up and down. "What?" I ask getting in the car.

   "You look hot." He licks his lip. "And you look like an f-boy." I say and smile. He gives me the death glare and starts laughing.

   Eh he's pretty cute, laugh was adorable. But I can't do that, he's one of Zach's best friend.

   I was staring off ahead of me until Jonah spoke up. "Hey are you sure you wanna go, I mean there are gonna be frat guys there, the guys.... Zach." He asks me.

   "Yeah I'm sure, I'm not gonna let a boy stop me from living my life." I say. "Okay girl, just don't go grinding hoochies with someone you don't know." He says looking at me for a quick second before staring back at the road.

   "I don't know, I'm feeling bold tonight." I wink at him. "Okay but don't say I didn't warn you." He laughs.

    I laugh along and I get a text.
(Zach in bold, Tori in italics)

                                                             No.
What?
                           You heard me, I said  no
  Please.
                   Hell nah I'm living my life          And you're not gonna drag me down any longer.

  And with that I shut off my phone and we pulled into the drive way. I'm letting loose tonight.

And imma drink away my problems...
