i was in the studio filming a new dance video when my phone went off. i walked over to see what the notification was.

zacc attacc: can we ft.?

zach has been acting kinda weird all today, but i have other things to worry about. i'm nervous to share this dance video with my viewers, it's different than my usual style. i choreographed this after shit hit the fan.

since we were just taking a break anyways i facetimed zach and put my volume up so i can hear him while cleaning up in my makeshift dressing room.

"hey zdong." i called out, blotting my face from sweat.

there was a shuffling noise that came from my phone, along with a murmur of someone speaking. i'm pretty pretty sure i heard the phrase "don't be a pussy."

"u-um it's not zach."

i dropped my eyebrow spoolie at the sound of his voice.

"what do you want." i replied with a cold tone and pulling my phone over so my face was more visible.

"i'm sorry, and i know that's not gonna fix it but it's true. i was jealous. i was jealous that you hit it off with the guys so well i thought i would lose you. i don't want to lose my bestfriend, i'm sorry. "

i didn't know what to respond, so i just stared at the table being used as a makeshift vanity.

"i'm sorry." his voice cracked.

jack reached over and pulled his guitar on his lap. i snapped my eyes over to my phone at the movement. he took a deep breath and closed his eyes before continuing.

"when you feel your loves been taken
when you know there's something missing
in the dark, we're barely hanging on..."

a small gasp slipped through my mouth, but jack didn't notice. his voice sounded so beautiful.

"then i think of the start
and it echos a spark
and i remember the magic electricity
then i look in my heart
there's a light in the dark
still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me
that i wanna keep
please don't leave
please don't leave..."

i never realized how much that song related to our relationship. eventually, jack finished singing.

"that was beautiful." i quietly spoke.

"FIVE MINUTES" molly yelled, she was filming this for me.

"i have to go soon." i told jack.

"friends?" he asked.

"best friends." i responded, smiling before hanging up.
