"Goodnight Jeffy" The girls and I giggled as we clumsily tucked Jeff into his bed for the night, which was my couch

It seems like we're the only ones who really got drunk because once the boys came inside they were totally fine but us not so much

"Goodnight girls" Jeff replied

Clay turned the lamp off and we were soon standing in the dark

"Okay, calm on. Uppy stairs we goey" I whispered to everyone as I wrapped my arms around Jessica and Hannah

Together we stumbled our way upstairs, the boys right behind us

I led everyone to the guest room where Hannah and Clay would be staying for the night

"Don't have sex please" I mumbled to them as I was leaving the room

"Never" Hannah gasped in response which made us giggle

Back in the hallway, Jessica was leaning into Alex as she silently laughed

I led them to my bedroom

"Alex, keep it in your pant-" I started to say but got interrupted by a hiccup which made Jessica fall into another fit of giggles "Don't have sex in my bed" I whispered before putting my hands together in a praying position

"Okay, Al. I'll make sure we don't" Alex promised me

"Good" I pointed my finger at him before walking out of my room

Zach followed me into my parents' room

The first thing I did was grab my pyjamas for the night and go to the bathroom to change into them

"You know" I started as I came stumbling out of the bathroom "You're lucky I'm letting you sleep here with me tonight" I told Zach

"Thi, I was supposed to sleep here with you tonight" Zach said "That was part of the plan" He added

"Yeah but Monty, Justin and Tony aren't here. Are they?" I replied as I looked around the room for them

"No they're not" Zach answered and I stopped my searching

"So that means that there's still plenty of couches left for you, mister" I looked at him "But because I like you, you can stay here" I added

Zach was about to say something but got caught off by my whining

"What's wrong?" He asked me

"Now I'm gonna have to wear pants to sleep and I hate doing that" I whined

Zach started to laugh but when he saw my serious face, he stopped

"How about you can take your pants off and I can take my shirt off, that way we'd both be sleeping in what we like?" He proposed

I flopped onto the bed, thinking about it

"Okay but no funny business" I warned him

He chuckled

"No funny business" He promised

I took my pyjama pants off and luckily my top was big enough to cover everything

Zach went to get ready for bed and I was just about dozing off when he joined me again

"Night Knight" He whispered gently as he carefully wrapped an arm around me

I giggled at the way that sounded

"I thought you were sleeping sorry" Zach said as he went to withdraw his arm from around me

I stopped him and leaned more into him as I put my hand on top of his

"Your arms are reallly big" I drunkenly-sleepily told him

Zach softly chuckled again

"They feel nice around me though, because they're not super small but they aren't super big. You have nice sized arms" I went on

"Thank you" Was the last thing I heard before really dozing off

I woke up the next morning, wrapped up in Zach's arms. I smiled slightly to myself before turning around to face his chest, nuzzling my face in the creek of his neck

Zach grunted and wrapped his arms tighter around me

"Zachy" I whispered softly

Another grunt in response

"I have to pee" I muttered

A smile crept on Zach's face as he laughed softly

"Stay" He muttered in a raspy voice

"I'm going to pee everywhere" I told him as I tried to get myself out of his arms

Without saying anything, Zach let go of me and turned around to go on his other side

I jumped out of bed and basically ran into the bathroom where I did what I had to do

As I washed my hands, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror

"Wow, I look horrible" I thought to myself

I took some makeup wipes and took off the makeup I had on from last night. I brushed my hair and teeth.

"Babyyy, come back" Zach called out for me

I opened the bathroom door to see Zach now on his back, whining and pouting like a little kid

"Althiaaaaaaa!" He whined

"I'm right here" I said as I jumped on him

Zach's arms immediately wrapped around me as I laid my head on his chest

We stayed like that for a bit before Zach spoke

"How and why aren't you hungover?" He asked me

I lifted my head from his chest and rested it on my hand so I could see him

"If I get super drunk, I don't get a hangover. But if I drink a bit, the next morning is the worse" I answered "Speaking of that, it's weird that I'm not hungover. I didn't even drink that much last night" I added

Zach started to laugh and I gave him a confused

"Darling, you were so drunk last night" He said

"I was not" I argued

He laughed again

"Do you not remember coming outside with the girls and asking us to ask you guys if you were trees and then whining until we did it and when we finally did you all said, and I quote, 'Do we look like we're fucking trees? Of course not, you idiots' and then you all threw bottles at us?" Zach questioned "The best part of the night, though, was when you walked right into your patio door" He told me before laughing once again

"Okay so maybe I was really drunk last night" I said

"You don't say" He replied

I rolled my eyes at him playfully and he made a face

"We're gonna have to get up and cook breakfast" I told him "Especially for Jess and Han, who are going to be so hungover" I added

"What if I don't wanna cook?" Zach asked me

"Then you can still come downstairs and keep me company" I answered

Zach let out an exaggerated sigh

"Or you can stay here by yourself and I'll go wake up Jeff to help me cook" I said, knowing he would eventually agree to come downstairs with me

"I'll cook" Zach gave in

"Yay" I cheered as I kissed his jaw before getting off of him and out of bed

Zach stretched before getting out of my bed

"Wait, where are my pants?" I asked him since I just realized I wasn't wearing any

Zach went on the other side of the bed and picked my pants up from the floor

He handed them to me

"You whined about how you had to sleep with pants on since we were sleeping in the same bed so I said that you could take your pants off if I could take my shirt off and that way we'd both be sleeping in what we wanted" Zach answered

"That's taking advantage of a drunk girl, y'know" I teased him as I put my pants back on

"It is not" He glared at me as he put his shirt back on

"Mmh, whatever you sayyy" I replied as I walked out of the room and made my way downstairs

Zach followed me all the way into the kitchen

"Let's see what we can make" He said as he opened my fridge to look at what I had

I hopped onto my counter and watched him as he looked around

"You know you're pretty cute when you're searching for ingredients" I blurted out

Zach dropped the pan he grabbed and I cringed at the sound

"Shh, Jeff is still sleeping" I whisper yelled at him

"A couple of minutes ago you were ready to wake him up and now you're worried you'll wake him up, how does that work?" Zach whispered back at me

"That was just to get you to come downstairs and make food" I told him

"Wow, you're using me for my skills now" He said in a taunting tone

"Hey, you took advantage of a drunk girl" I argued back

Zach rolled his eyes at me and picked up the pan he dropped before putting it on the stove

"Whatcha gonna make?" I asked him

"I don't know yet but I'm gonna keep looking around so you think I'm cute" He replied

I giggled in response

Zach brought out the eggs, some fruits, butter and milk from the fridge. Then he took out sugar, flour, chocolate chips chunks from the cupboards.

"I'm gonna make chocolate and banana pancakes" He announced

"Sweet" I responded, a huge grin on my face

Zach started on the batter as I went on my phone to check my social media. As I was scrolling through Twitter, Montgomery texted me.

I let out a groan and Zach turned around to check on me

"What's wrong?" He asked as he saw my face

"Monty texted me and I don't know if I can deal with him right now" I answered

"Just see what he said and if it's stupid, don't respond" Zach told

I nodded and he went back to mixing the batter

Althia:

I don't know.

Althia:

How about you ask your bestfriends, Bryce and Scott

Althia:

Oh nothing too bad

Althia:

You and Jeff just got in a fight because he overheard you telling Bryce and Scott about how you're getting us girls and how easy we are

Althia:

Let's not even get started with how you spent all night with them, talking shit about us

Althia:

I don't give a single fuck who you talk to or who you're friends with but don't start telling people shit about me or my friends to make yourself seem cool around asshats

Althia:

Do whatever you want to do and yes you did hit him, only after your bestie Bryce had some swings at him too

Althia:

Do what you wanna do.

Althia:

I truly don't care.

Althia:

You said sorry to me, okay thanks I appreciate it.

Althia:

THANKS Montgomery, way to prove that you didn't mean anything you did last night!

Althia:

Mmh, whatever.

Althia:

Bye.

I closed my phone and let out a huge groan

"Lemme guess he said something stupid?" Zach asked me as he poured some batter into the pan

"You bet ya" I said "But whatever, what can I do to help?" I questioned

"You can start cutting those fruits" He replied

"Why do I always cut fruits or veggies?" I complained "I can cook you know Zachy" I added

"Okay, chill" Zach chuckled as he turned around to look at me "You want to do the pancakes instead?" He asked

"Nah, I just wanted to say that" I told him as I hopped down from the counter

Zach shook his head and turned back around to flip the pancake

I started cutting strawberries and the kitchen fell into a comfortable silence as we continued to work on our tasks

I suddenly gasped and Zach turned around to look at me

"What?" He asked

"I can make fresh orange juice" I announced as I ran to the fridge and grabbed a bunch of oranges

I set them down on the counter then grabbed the orange squeezer

I started making the juice and I could feel Zach's eyes on me

Soon enough he came and hugged me from behind tightly

I smiled and laughed a little

"Ew, can you guys not" A voice suddenly making us jump

We turned around and saw Jeff

"Jeffy! How'd you sleep?" I asked him

"Really fucking good" He answered "Are you almost done cooking?" He asked

"Yeah" Zach answered

"Can I please go wake everyone up" Jeff questioned, begging like a little kid

"Go for it" I responded

Jeff left the kitchen without another word to run up the stairs

"I'm taking you out tomorrow after school" Zach suddenly told me

"Okay?" I replied as I grabbed plates for him

Before he could say anything else, we heard Jeff screaming and then Hannah yelling at him

I placed the table and Zach did the plates

Soon everyone came downstairs

"Holy fuck my head is pounding" Jessica complained as she sat down

I handed her an aspirin

"Bless your soul" She said as she took it "And yours" She told Zach as she dug into her plate

For the rest of the day, we chilled and watched movies all together
