Seize The Day

It had been a two weeks since Zacky and I fixed things. The guys were busy in the studio recording their new Self Titled album. Zacky and Brian had practically moved into our house so they could spend time with us. Even though they lived with us we rarely ever saw them, they would come home late and leave early. We were bored without them.
Cassy was lounging on the couch on her laptop. “You’re going to ruin your back.” I said looking at her slouched position.
“Right because your internet position is any better.” She said scrolling through Tumblr.
“Do you want something to eat?” I asked opening up the cupboard doors looking at my options.
“Let’s go out to eat then go somewhere,” Cassy said sitting up and stretching. “I’m tired of sitting around.”
“Okay where do you want to go?” I asked looking at her. She was right we haven’t been out of the house for two weeks, besides to go to work or shopping.
“A fancy restaurant then hit the clubs.” Cassy said standing.
I nodded in agreement and we went our separate ways to shower. After showering I blow dried my hair and straightened it I put on my white skinny jeans and a black bandeau with a red loose fitting cropped tank top. I put on my red strappy heels and a gold skull bracelet, with my gold rose necklace. I walked out to meet Cassy who was wearing high waisted black shorts with a bright pink button down tank top tucked in and black heels. “Let’s roll.” She said laughing as we walked out of the house and climbed into my car. I took her to the restaurant Matt took me to on our date.
We ate and we split the bill. “What club do you want to go to?” I asked as we got back into the car.
“Poison?” She asked. I nodded Poison was the club we went to the night Zacky and I made up. I drove back and parked at the house and we walked to the club. As soon as the bouncer saw us he opened the rope. The entrance was dark the only light was offered by red floor lights I could already feel the music vibrating my body. We turned a corner and we were greeted by bright strobe lights and colored lights swirling around us. I grabbed Cassy’s hand and pushed our way to the bar.
“Two shots of vodka!” I yelled over the music to the bartender. He was cute blonde hair and blue eyes, he smiled and poured them handing them to me and Cass. We knocked them back and Cassy ordered two more. We downed the shots Cassy ordered and turned our attention to the dance floor.
“Shall we?” Cassy asked offering me her hand. We pushed our way to the middle of the dance floor. Without much room we grinded against each other. Some guys tried to grind on us but we sent them away. We danced for what seemed like forever before Cassy yelled she had to pee. I followed her to the restroom, and we waited in line. “This is ridiculous.” Cassy muttered and we inched closer to the door. I waited outside as Cassy did her business.
“Kaylin?” I turned and looked to be met with familiar brown eyes.
“Aaron?” I was shocked, what was he doing in California.
“Hey it is you!” He said excitedly wrapping me into a hug. I hugged him back feeling awkward.
“How are you doing?” He asked holding onto my shoulders looking me up and down. “You look great.” He said.
“I’ve been pretty good Aaron.” I said smiling at him. I felt a hand on my back and I turned to see Cassy. “You remember Aaron.” I said looking at her pleading for help.
“Oh yeah hey.” Cassy said cheerily. “Well it was nice seeing you but we were about to go home.” Cassy said trying to get out of this as fast as possible.
“Oh,” he looked down sadly and Cassy looked at me, I frowned but shrugged.
“Would you like to come back to our place?” Cassy asked forcing a smile.
“Sure.” He said happily, he grabbed both of our hands and pulled us through the crowd. “I came with some friends so I don’t have a car.” He said.
“It’s within walking distance.” I said, before turning and leading him through the crowd to the exit.
“Wow this is cool you live right on the beach.” Aaron said looking around the living space. “Just like you always wanted.” He turned and smiled at me. We had planned on moving in together after I graduated, but then I ended our relationship.
“Yup just like I always wanted.” I smiled back and walked towards the kitchen pulling out three beers. I heard car doors slam outside. I looked at Cassy and she looked as confused as I did.
“Ladies no need to worry your men are home!” Brian yelled as he swung open the front door. He stopped when he noticed Aaron. “Who the fuck is he?” he asked eyeing Aaron.
“An old friend.” I said as Zacky walked in he was smiling until he saw Aaron.
“Gone for a day and you guys try to replace us, I see how it is.” Brian said walking up to me and taking a beer.
“And who said that was for you?” I asked raising my eyebrow.
Brian leaned down and got in my face. “I did pumpkin.” He said smiling. “So old friend huh?” he said straightening and directing his attention to Aaron, who had puffed out his chest. He was ripped he was an MMA fighter and was as cocky as Brian. “What kind of friend?” He asked walking towards Aaron.
“I’m Kaylin’s well uh,” He looked at me, but I didn’t know what to call what we had. We were friends with benefits but it was more than just that, we had plans and feelings for each other.
“Fuck buddy.” Cassy said.
Aaron shook his head. “It was a little more than just that.” He said, I looked at Zacky he looked uncomfortable and kind of angry.
“More than a fuck buddy but less than a boyfriend? How complicated.” Brian said sitting next to Cassy and putting an arm around her.
“It was complicated.” I said looking at Aaron. Even if we weren’t dating it still hurt when we broke up.
“I should probably go. It was nice seeing you again.” He said walking up to me and hugging me. But it wasn’t an awkward hug this was the hug he gave me so many times, it was possessive. I patted his back awkwardly wanting him to let go because this hug was lasting longer than it should have. When he pulled away he kissed my cheek. He walked past Zacky on his way out. He looked him in the eye and I could see the electricity pass between them.
As soon as he left Cassy let out a sigh. “Well that was super fucking awkward.” She took Brians beer and took a drink.
“Is he supposed to be sticking around?” Zacky asked his voice hard.
“I don’t know I didn’t ask.” I said walking up to him. “Let’s go to bed.” I said grabbing his hand, at first he didn’t follow but he gave in and let me lead him to the bedroom.
“Try not to be too loud some of us have to get up early!” Brian yelled before I shut the door.
I closed the door and looked at Zacky. He sat down on the edge of my bed and put his hand out. I took his hand and he pulled me to him, I stood between his legs.. “What was your relationship with that guy?” Zacky asked looking up at me.
“We had casual sex but we also had feelings but we never acted on those feelings, but we also had plans for the future.” I said looking down at Zacky, when I told him I had future plans with Aaron his face fell and he looked sad. I cupped his face in my hands, “Zacky I have you I don’t want him, I haven’t wanted him in a long time.” I said bending down and kissing him. Zacky wrapped his arms around my waist kissing me back. He fell backwards bring me with him as we laid on the bed kissing. Zacky ran his hand up and under my shirt. I let out a gasp at how cold his hands were. He smiled and kissed me before rolling over and off the bed. “Wait where are you going?” I asked.
“To get ready for bed.” He said walking into the bathroom.
I walked up to the door, “But I thought-" I started but Zacky looked at me and shook his head.
“Not tonight.” He said putting toothpaste on his brush and started to brush his teeth. I pouted and walked back into my room opening my dresser and pulling out a band shirt. I stripped out of my tank top and jeans taking off the bandeau and pulling the shirt over my head. I could feel Zacky watching me as I stripped but refused to turn around. I walked back to the bathroom and Zacky was still watching me. I brushed my teeth and wiped off my makeup. When I walked out of my bathroom Zacky was already in bed looking at me.
“Something wrong?” I asked I was really annoyed that he didn’t want to have sex but he was watching me like he expected to get some.
“No, you’re just beautiful.” He said smiling.
I walked over to my side of the bed and flipped the covers back climbing under them. “Goodnight.” I said rolling over so I didn’t face him.
“Goodnight.” Zacky said trying to kiss my head but I pulled the blanket up and over my head. “Hey are you pouting?” He said pulling the blanket away from my face.
“No I’m tired.” I said pulling the blanket back up over my face.
“No, you’re pouting.” Zack said I could hear the smile in his voice. He went to touch me but realized I left the sheet between us. Zack ripped the blanket off of us both throwing it to the floor.
“Zack!” I yelled. He climbed on top of me pinning my hands to the side of my head. I looked up at him; he was smiling down at me. “Zacky get off.” I whined wiggling under him.
“Not until you stop pouting.” He said bending down; he planted little kisses all over my face.
“Zack come on get off.” I said trying hard to get him to let me go.
He stopped kissing my face and asked “Are you done being grumpy?”
“Yes.” I said with a sigh.
“See you’re lying you only want me to get off.” He said bending down closer to my face. When he leaned down he loosened his grip on my wrists and I broke free pushing him off of me. I went to get off the bed but Zacky grabbed me and pulled me back on top of him. Before I could say anything he crashed our lips together in a heated kiss. His hands went to my hips as I grinded them against his. I could feel he was getting turned on so I broke the kiss and rolled off of him. “Hey wait.” He said shocked.
“Not tonight.” I said laying down and pulling the blanket form the floor.
“That’s not fair.” He whined.
“Revenge is a bitch.” I said rolling over and kissing him. He wrapped his arms around me and laughed.
“It really is.” He said before kissing my head and falling asleep with his arms around my waist.
