Soulmates

Chapter 30 (Zak.)

   "Zak." a voice whispered in his ear, he groaned and rolled towards the voice, "Zak." the voice said, the one he recognized as Farren's, he opened his eyes and smiled at her, "I'd say morning sleepy head but you literally have three hours till you have to go." she said dryly, he sat up alarmed, "I slept all day?" he asked, Farren nodded, "Why didn't you wake me up this morning." Zak asked, "You needed sleep for tonight." Farren replied, she obviously looked upset but she was trying to hide it.

 "I'm sorry Farren, I told you I would spend time with you before I had to go, but I slept all day." Farren smiled, "It's alright." she said, Zak sighed, "No It isn't I didn't keep my word." Farren sighed, "Zak don't blame yourself, you needed sleep." She reached out and grabbed his hands, holding them in her own small ones.

  Farren stared at their connected hands, Zak frowned as Farren's eyes started to grow distant, something was bothering her, "Farren something wrong?" he asked tugging her to him, her eyes jumped to his face, her brown eyes held a great sadness, and anger.

 "Shortly after you passed out yesterday, Arya took it upon herself to just come barging in, only to give me this." she reached over and grabbed a file folder from the drawers on her side of the bed and handing it to him. 

 Zak stared at the contents of the folder as he shifted through them, pictures from the night before last night. ones no one should have. "That's not the worst of it." Farren whispered, Zak lifted his head to look at her, her shoulders were slumped, "Jen took the File off the Table where I had put it and decided she had to look at it, and a friend sent me this." she pulled out her phone and opened it, she clicked on a link and gave it to him.

 "A video too!" He growled, slamming the phone on the bed, Farren sat staring at her feet as he got up and began to pace, "Is there no goddamn privacy!" he shouted, Farren flinched at his loud volume, "Who posted this?" He asked Farren sharply, then he realized he was still yelling, he sighed, "Farren, I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell at you." he said running his hands through his hair.

 "It's alright, I.." Zak didn't let her finish, "If your thinking about blaming yourself for this, don't, its my fault, I left my computer open, not you." Farren looked at him and shook her head, "It's my fault, I put the file where she could get it, i put it where I shouldn't have." Zak realized she was talking about Jen seeing it, "Farren she shouldn't have touched it in the first place, did you tell her not to?" he questioned, "Well yes...but she had already opened it as I said it." 

 "Goddamnit!" He said as he rushed across the room and punched the wall, successfully creating a hole.

  "Hello!" A excited voice greeted him, he glanced up, a bright and happy face stood in front of the desk, Zak smiled, "Hello, how are you this fine day?" he asked, the girl smile and batted her eyelashes at him seductively, "I'm good how are you?" she replied as she set a small poster of him on the desk so he could sign it.

 The night went by slowly as he signed posters, as it ended and everything closed up, Zak went looking for Farren, Hoping to leave.

 "Farren!" he called as he walked outside, he could hear voices talking so he followed it until he reached his source, Farren sat on the ground next to a girl, he frowned as he noticed Farren gave the girl her jacket.

 "Farren?" Zak asked, she turned around, relief seeping into her eyes, "What's wrong?" he asked as he sat down on front of the girl and Farren, "Some guy's tried to jump her, they already took her clothes so I gave her my jacket." Zak narrowed his eyes, he recognized this girl as the sweet,shy one he had signed off earlier.

 Zak took his coat off and handed it to her, "Hold this." He stuck his hand out for the girl, who looked at him, shock flitted across her face as she took it and helped her stand, He quickly put his arm around her back and his other under her legs as he picked her up. 

"Cover her legs with the jacket." Zak said and Farren obeyed, he had her grab the keys and quickly run to the car, he started walking as she disappeared behind a corner, Zak followed in her footsteps.

 Zak had just got the girl settled into the car when a snooty voice sounded behind him, "Hey give that back." Zak turned around to find a gang of at least five standing behind him, "She isn't a object assholes and no." he replied sharply as he shut the door.

 "Listen man just give her back and nobody has to get hurt." before Zak could say anything Farren was there standing in front of him, he narrowed his eyes as all five men raked their eyes up and down her body, a few even whistled.

 "Farren get back in the Car." Zak hissed, her being out of the car while these men were here made him antsy, "No, These Lowlife thugs can leave," she said sharply, the lead man Narrowed his eyes at her, Zak was quick to hook his arm around her waist and pull her so her back was pressed against his chest, "Look a low life virgin." the guy bit back, Zak couldn't help but chuckle.

 "I think your man's to full of himself, why don't you move sweet cheeks so we can teach him a lesson." the lead guy said, Zak tightened his hold on Farren, "Get in the car." he whispered in her ear, she shook her head, "You wanna teach him a lesson, you need to get through me first." she replied, the guys laughed and next thing he knew they were pressed against the car a knife at Farrens throat.
