My Brothers Friend || Zach Herron

Panic Mode

zach's POV: 

I woke up confused as to where I was, but when I looked down and saw a peaceful y/n sleeping with her arm wrapped around my stomach all the memories from last night came flooding back. I kissed her forehead and just sat there smiling. I really love this girl, and I was dumb enough to let her go, how could I have been so stupid. I'm not letting her go this time, at least I hope she will take me back, she isn't the type of girl to do this and walk away right? This means we are something more? I don't know, I don't wanna assume but I don't wanna think of any other options.
I slowly got out of y/ns grip and put on shorts and a shirt, I set out a pair of sweat pants and one of my hoodies for y/n to wear when she woke up if she wanted them. Once I was done fixing my bed head I walked downstairs to see the guys in the kitchen. All their heads snapped up as I walked in, then they all looked at corbyn, who was staring so hard it felt like I was being suffocated. 
Suddenly they all started laughing and slapping me on the back "so how was the drive home alone with y/n Zach?" Corbyn asked as everyone calmed down and went back to their food.
"um, the drive?" I was confused as to what was going on. 
"yeah, y/n seemed pretty upset to have to drive home alone with you and I was wondering if you made it as horrible as she thought it was gonna be" he went back to putting butter on his toast.
"oh, um yeah we talked and stuff so it wasn't terrible, at least it wasn't for me" wait? "she said it was gonna be horrible?" 
"no no no" Corbyn turned around after realizing his mistake "she was just really nervous to have to be alone with you for that long, ya know? she was more upset with me for ditching you guys there" he had sympathy in his eyes but I was still worried.
"yeah I get it" it was whatever, I mean I wasn't all the happy to be alone with her as well, I understood how she felt, some what, But it still hurt. 
I grabbed an apple and walked into the living room, I sat on the couch and was about to grab the remote when someone grabbed it first, I looked up and saw Corbyn standing above me.
"wanna watch tv or play video games?" I asked, I think he could tell I was getting more and more nervous by the second. 
Corbyn sat down and faced me and brought his voice to a whisper "listen, I know what you and y/n do is really none of my business" shoot, this isn't going to end well "but I saw your room was empty last night and I just need to know if you guys were doing what I think you guys were doing?" I sat and stared for a second, I was waiting for him to yell at me or something, but his voice was so calm "she's my baby sister Zach and I just wanna make sure she is OK" 
"we talked, in the car ride home we talked about us, and why everything was getting so awkward between us and it was nice to be able to talk to her again" I could tell by the look on his face he didn't care about the car ride home "when we got home, yes feelings were talked about and things happened" I gulped and wait for him to chew me out.
"you slept with her didn't you?" 
"yeah, yeah, that's what happened" I avoided eye contact at all costs.
"its what she wanted? you didn't come on to here or anything at all?" 
"what the hell Corbyn? no I didn't, in fact she was the one that brought it up and said she was ready" why would he think that I made her do something without her consent, who does he think I am? "for your information, there were a few times when we were dating that I wanted more then just making out but every time she said she wasn't ready I stopped. I'm not some guy who just does what he wants to girls" I stood up, getting angry.
"that's not what I meant Zach, I know that's not the kind of guy you are" he stood up and gave me and apologetic look "its just, I want to believe that she is still the innocent little girl she always was but if you say she wanted it then I believe you" I could tell he was sorry.
"do the rest of the boys know?" I didn't wanna embarrass y/n.
"not that I know of, I was the first one upstairs last night and when I saw you were in her room and your door was open, I closed your door before anyone saw, so I don't think anyone else knows" 
"thank you Corbyn" I could feel a weight come off my shoulders
"again, what you to do is none of my business" he started to walk away and up the stairs "just be smart" he disappeared upstairs and I walked out to the pool.

corbyns POV:

I know they are smart kids, I know they are, especially y/n. she wouldn't do anything she wasn't ready for, right? yeah right. I walked into Zach's room and saw that y/n was gone, when I walked back out I leaned against the door of her room and heard the shower going, I had a while.
I walked back into Zach's room and went straight to the trash, empty. I went to the cupboard under his sink and looked for the box that I knew he always kept, it was unopened. I began to get worried and started to look around the room, under the bed, under clothes, under the sheets? I didn't find anything, I started to get really worried.
They were smart, they are smart, they would use protection. I started to panic and started to search in places that didn't make sense, his underwear drawer, in the closet, the top shelf of his bookcase, I still didn't find anything.
I walked back in the hall and listened for the shower but it was off. I knocked on her door and didn't hear and answer so I walked to the window that looked into the back yard and saw that she was sitting next to Zach with her feet in the pool. They were giggling and laughing and I could tell she was happy, I hadn't seen her that happy in a while. 

y/ns POV:

"sto-op" I was laughing because of dumb jokes that Zach had been telling me "I'm gonna pee my pants" that just made Zach laugh harder which made me laugh harder and soon we were both laughing down laughing our heads off.
"y/n!" I looked up and saw Corbyn standing at the door of the house.
"yeah?" I could feel Zach grab my hand and squeeze it
"can I talk to you please?" I looked down at Zach and could see on his face this was about last night, my stomach started to do flips as I stood up and walked inside.
Me and Corbyn walked up to my room and sat on my bed facing each other. "what's up" I tried to break some of the tension.
"I know you slept with Zach last night" he just said it.
"umm, oh, uh, yeah that kinda happened" he already knew that "but I'm a big girl now, I'm 18 and I can make my decisions if I wanna have sex of not and I really felt like I was re-" 
"y/n I trust you, I know I cant hold back forever, I just need to know if you guys were smart about it" he cut me off.
I paused and thought about it, suddenly I couldn't remember if we were or not, my heart sped up and I started shaking but I don't think it was bad enough for him to notice. "we were" I didn't want him to freak out if he saw me uncertain. 
"are you sure, don't get mad but I looked through Zach's room and didn't find a condom wrapper or a condom itself in the trash or on the floor, and his box of them under the sink was unopened" his hand went on my knee and I tried my hardest to stop shaking "are you on birth control or anything like that?" he was quiet and I could tell he was scared, I was to.
"yes" no I'm not "yeah I am, started when I came to LA" I lied straight through my teeth.
I could feel Corbyn relax and pull back his hand "ok, see I knew you guys were smart, I panicked a little when I didn't find anything but its all ok" I nodded "um just don't tell Zach I went through his room ok?" I nodded again. 
Corbyn walked out and I assume he went downstairs but I didn't care, I was in full blown panic mode.
I couldn't remember if he pulled out or not because I don't remember a condom ever coming into play and I think I even told Zach I was on the pill. 
Fuck what have I done.
