Chapter 17 - Birthday Boy's Night

Darryl's POV

I-I can't..
He did too much to me..
He can't come..

I could feel myself in a grasp. Everything was pitch black on my end. I put my face into it, embracing a warmer feeling coming my way.

No.. Zak said he won't come.. A-and my friends are here.. Yeah! It'll be fine..! ...right..?

We walked out of the mall and stopped at another store. I was still in the car, laying on Zak. I didn't want to leave his side, ever.

Zak's POV

After an hour, we were able to calm Darryl down and get him in a better mood.

Callahan..

I didn't wanna think about him, though. Todays my birthday. Me and Darryl were gonna go to a movie later, and then have a few drinks and play videogames.

I hope at least 1 of them remembered..

I stayed with Darryl in the car, not letting go of him even after he was calmer.
When we got back to the house, I still held his hand.
He didn't ask me to stop, so I didn't.
We walked in and set down the clothes and groceries we bought for the week after.

We got a call from our school earlier that, because of a water leak and how much extra time our school put in anyway, we wouldn't have to come back until after summer as long as we filled out our end-of-the-year applications.
Yayyy!

We sat on the couch and chatted for a bit before me and Darryl went to the movie. I let him pick this time since he hates horror movies.

Know that by heart!

Zelk's POV

After they left, we started setting everything up. We put up balloons with Zak's minecraft face on them, packages of muffins on the counters, and lots of LOADED CONFETTI!

I planned on having Finn spike the punch we gave to Darryl and Zak (especially Zak!) To make things more interesting, so we got the strongest tequila we could find.

This should be interesting..
