12// Oh, the Cole Blood

Shout out to @agentVamPanda on this one!!

Zac's POV

Great.

I smell like chocolate, hazelnut, and tiramisu. The ice cream dripped down from my head as Brad crushed the cone. He doesn't have any respect for food, I mean damn! That ice cream was freaking delicious but instead of me eating it, the liquid-ish substance had a taste of my now sticky, smelly, and wet hair. I'm gonna make him pay for what he did, I'm gonna make him pay for another triple scoop of ice cream.

He smiled. The excess ice cream on his hand was wiped across my red plaid shirt, "Zachary, what are you and your partner doing here?"

Partner?! The heck?! He thought I was fucking gay?!

I thought of a good comeback for a second and said, "Well, why is your group roaming the streets in this time of the day, eh? Looking for a great and comfortable place to have a threesome?"

I smirked at my own comeback on how good it is. Brad just stood there and raised his eyebrow at me. I looked at Josh and smiled at him.

"Good one," He mouthed to me. I smiled and nodded my head at him.

"Hey, we can't understand gay language! Speak english!" He complained and said it very slowly, probably thinking that Josh and I cannot understand a thing they're saying.

I glared at him and stood up. I never liked Brad since day one. Heck, no one likes him! He bosses around people and acts like he owns them. And for that, people eventually get scared and obey him.

I shook my head to take off all of the ice cream that has smothered my hair. Only the bits and pieces of the cone fell off. Well, that's great. I tossled my hair only to be met by a sticky substance. I cringed my nose and wiped it on the napkin that's on the table. My phone suddenly vibrated as I finished cleaning myself up. I took it out and looked at the screen.

Autumn: Where are you?

I looked at the time and it read: 8:17 pm.

"Shoot! We have got to go," I said, taking Josh's ice cream and dumped it on Brad shoulder. I laughed half- heartidly and ran as fast as I could. Josh noticed that his ice cream was gone so, he ran after me.

"Zac! Why in the hell did you dump my ice cream onto Brad's freaking shoulders?!" He shouted, still keeping his pace.

"I had no choice!" I laughed.

"Where in the world are we?" Josh asked inbetween breaths. I think we ran for about 15 maybe 20 minutes. We were just going in any direction and intersections we can see.

"I don't know," I said. I bent down and breathed heavily as I looked up in the sky.

"Woah, what time is it?" I asked Josh, who is already sitting on a bench not far away from here.

"Uh, it's 8:32. Why?" He said.

"I need to be home by 8:45" I said, scratching the back of my head.

"Wittle Zac is obeying orders," He pinched my cheek. I simply pulled away and massaged my cheeks.

"Well, let's get going," I started walking back to where we came from.

"Are you seriously walking?" He said. He whistled and waved at something. A cab pulled up in front of him.

"Let's go!"He shouted. I ran towards the cab and opened the door. I slid inside and sat down in the backseat beside Josh.

"Where is your destination, sirs?" the can driver asked us.

I told the address to my house and with that, the cab driver sped off the road.

Josh patted my shoulder and whispered, "You're paying."

He leaned back and smirked at me. I shrugged my shoulders and nodded my head at him. I mean my house isn't really that far. I think we're getting close.

Josh laughed at literally nobody. I looked at him weirdly and took his phone from his hands. Instagram, eh? I saw a picture of a girl. She's pretty and she has long brunette locks. I read her name and was suprised by it.

"Allysa Cole, eh?"

Josh flushed a rosy red color on his face when he heard her name.

"Wait. Brad has a sister?!" I asked Josh.

Josh nodded and said, "Yes, he has. A very pretty one."

"And a very sarcastic one," I added.

He glanced at me and said,"She's not sarcastic!"

"Believe me I've met her before. She's just like Autumn."

I pouted my lips at him and patted his back, "Awhh, I know how you feel, Joshie,"

He glared at the way I called him 'Joshie'.

"Oh, the Cole blood."

He took his phone from my hands and stuffed it in his pocket. The cab pulled to a stop. Yay. We're here. Josh noticed because he was the first one who came out of the cab. I payed the driver and gave him a tip.

Josh, being his loud and noisy self, opened the front door and shouted, "Mom, Dad! I'm home!"

This caused both my parents' head to turn and face him.

"Josh? Is that you? Oh my, you've grown so mature!" Mum beamed.

Is he really that mature?

Dad walked up to Josh and hugged him, "Josh! Son, how are you?"

"I'm very good, sir," Josh politely said, patting my father's back.

"What have I told you about the word 'sir'?" My father let go of Josh and raised his eyebrow.

"Oh, well then. All right, Dave," Josh smiled.

* ~ * ~ * ~ *

"Bye, honey!" Mum waved her hand as she carried her bag to the car.

"Bye, Mum!" Tris and I both said in unison.

"Be good while we're gone, yeah?" Dad ruffled my hair while he patted Tris's shoulder.

Dad hugged us and went straight to the car. The engine bolted and so did the car. We both headed to the front door and sat down on the stairs.

The front door flew open to reveal Josh leaning on the door frame.

He was holding up two dvd's in both of his hands.

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or World War Z?"
