Girl I Know

Zacky’s POV:
Stella presses her lips to mine; I’m taken back for a few seconds, this seems kind of soon. I didn’t even know she was interested in me like that, whatever, I’m not about to stop and ask her. I smile into the kiss and slide my hands down to her waist. Her free hand goes around my neck to pull me closer; ok I guess she is interested in me. Our lips move together perfectly and she soon parts my mouth by slipping her tongue past my lips. Our tongues fight for dominance for a few seconds, but I let her take the lead. Stella, now proud of her dominance, moves her hand up and down my leg slowly, making me squirm in my seat. She breaks away for a few seconds, our breathing has gotten slightly heavy. She stands up and I watch her curiously, why the hell did she stop? She must notice my confusion because she smiles before grabbing my hand and pulling me up, she leads me into the living room and we stand in front of the couches. “Wh-” I’m about to ask her why we moved but she cuts me off by pushing me backwards. I land on the couch and Stella quickly sits on my lap, facing me. She presses her lips against mine again and we continue where we left off. I slide my hands down to her waist again and I pull her closer while she intertwines her fingers in my hair and pulls softly, “What the fuck?!” I hear someone shout behind me. Stella quickly breaks away and we sit up, Stella still on my lap “Johnny!” she says, shocked. Stella shoots up and I follow her lead “Uh, hey” she says in somewhat confident voice. “Don’t ‘hey’ me! What the hell are you guys doing?” Johnny says angrily, “Nothing” Stella says casually and I glance at her. Johnny turns to me “Johnny, why are you so mad?” I ask, slightly confused. “You damn well know why I’m mad. Lacey’s cousin, really?” he asks and I stare at him, shocked “What? You’re Lacey’s cousin?” I turn to Stella “Don’t pretend you didn’t know” Johnny accuses. “I didn’t!” I protest and he rolls his eyes “He didn’t know Johnny” Stella says and Johnny stares at the both of us. “I swear I didn’t know, but honestly, why does it matter so much?” I ask and he sighs “I think you should go Zack” he says, avoiding my question and I just nod. If I protest it’ll only get worse, he should cool off. I walk past him and into the spare bedroom; I put on my shoes and grab my shirt. I walk back into the living room where Johnny and Stella are talking. When I reach them, they go quiet “I guess I’ll leave now” I mumble and walk to the front door. Stella follows closely behind, “Bye, I guess” I say and she smiles before grabbing my hand and shoving something in it. She kisses me really quick and winks before turning around and walking away. I leave the house and open up my hand, it’s a note. I open it up and read it; I can’t help but smile to myself. 'Call me, 714-963-2012 xoxo Stella'

Stella’s POV:
I walk back to the dining room, grab the plates and take them to the kitchen. As I rinse them off, I can feel Johnny's eyes burning a hole in the back of my head. “He didn’t know, Johnny” I say without turning around to face him. I hear him get up and walk over until I can feel him standing behind me, “Then you should’ve told him” he points out and I finally turn to look at him. He still looks angry, his fists are clenched and his jaw is set. “Be honest, the fact that Lacey and I are cousins isn’t the real reason you’re mad” I accuse and he inhales deeply, he knows I’m right. “Well… I don’t like the fact that he hit on you” he says and I raise an eyebrow, “Maybe I hit on him” I point out and he sighs “Why are you after him?” he asks sincerely, he knows me too well. I smirk at his question “Now Johnny, what are you suggesting? That I’m not the right kind of girl for him?” I ask in a teasing voice and he frowns “That’s exactly what I’m suggesting” he says sternly “Please stay away from him” he adds and I stare into his eyes “You care about him don’t you?” I ask and he nods “Best friends tend too” he answers “Well what makes you think I don’t care about him?” I ask honestly and he rolls his eyes “Name one guy you actually cared about” he says “All of them” I answer “Ha” he says loudly “You go through guys faster then I go through beers” he insults “So? Maybe Zacky could be ‘the one’” I point out and Johnny just shakes his head “Please, leave him alone. Zack doesn’t need someone reckless like you in his life” Johnny says and I smirk “At least give it a chance, we could be a good match” I point out and he watches me carefully for at least a minute “Fine” he says after the long pause “I guess I can’t just assume that you will hurt him, but I’ll be watching” he threatens “You do that” I say teasingly before walking past him and to the front door, I put on my shoes and turn to Johnny who’s still in the kitchen. I wink at him and leave the house.

Johnny’s POV:
Stella shuts the door behind her and I sigh to myself. I go and watch some tv but I can’t seem to get my mind off Zacky and Stella. He doesn’t know what she’s all about and when he figures it out, he may be in too deep. It’s not that I hate her or anything, she’s just one of those girls that seems to love to play with fire and I don’t want Zack getting caught up in that lifestyle. When I saw them making out on the couch, I wasn’t mad because she’s related to Lacey, I was mad because I don’t really want them together. I’ve seen her go through guys and I’ve heard some of her stories, she’s reckless and dangerous. I know I should love Stella because she’s Lacey's cousin, but I’ve known her for a while now and she’s bad news. I just hope Zack will figure it out soon because I doubt he’ll listen to me.
