Missing In Action

Previously

“You know what they say, Haner. You learn something new everyday.” Elliot said as she looked at him. The guys laughed and continued to drink through the night until they all passed out how they were.

Now

Everyone but Jimmy and Elliot woke up with a hangover the next day. The two of them laughed at the rest of them and planned what pranks they could do to them but with Matt and Brian keep on interrupting them they stopped planning.

“Matt?” Elliot called out.

“Yeah?” Matt said walking behind her.

“I’m going to the lake, see you in a bit.”

“Be careful,” he said as he handed her, her phone.

Elliot nodded her head and ran down to the lake. To her surprise she found Zacky and Johnny there.

“Hey,” she said as she sat down next to Zacky.

“Hey,” they said in unison.

“El, you know that I’m fixing pieces together about you and Jimmy.” Zacky said as he slung his arm around her should.

“How?”

“Last night,” Zacky said as he sighed and looked out into the lake.

“Except from Short Shit here, does anyone else know?” Elliot asked.

“No, and be glad that I won’t tell them either.”

“Thanks,” Elliot said as she leaned on him.

“How long ago?” Zacky asked.

“Why?”

“Me and Johnny have been talking about it and we’re curious.”

“End of November.”

Johnny got up and sat on the other side of Elliot.

“It’s all going to be okay,” Johnny said as he looked over at her.

“How is it?”

“Jimmy will soon see what a bitch Leana-”

“Why’s Leana a bitch?” Zacky asked confused.

“Promise me that you won’t tell anyone, Zee.” Elliot said as she pleaded him.

“Elliot-”

“Zacky, you can’t!” Johnny said sadly.

“Why?”

“Because more shit will stir,” Elliot said quietly.

Zacky looked at Johnny then Elliot.

“I promise I won’t, even if it’s something horrible.”

Elliot held out her pinkie finger and held it out to him. She’s always done this with Zacky and
Zacky immediately placed his pinkie around Elliot’s.

Johnny started the story of from his perceptive and Elliot did the same. Once both stories were done Zacky held Elliot close to him and closed his eyes.

Fucking hell…this shit is messed up. Zacky thought as he held the sobbing teen to him.

Notes

Bit short, I know but I wanted to show you a bit of Zacky/Elliot moment. I can tell you all now that Zacky and Elliot will not be dating in the future, sorry but I don't think this pairing works. So what do you think? Good? Bad? Please comment and tell me.
