Chapter Eight



"Aren't those stars beautiful??" asked Paige, looking up at the sky above.

"I dunno, I'm too busy looking at you," replied Zac. "The way those stars shine in your gorgeous blue eyes, it just makes me want to.."

Zac was interuppted by Paige's lips pressed on to his. Zac didn't hesitate on this, he quickly responded. After thirty seconds, which seemed like thirty minutes, they pulled apart.

Paige looked in Zac's eyes and stated, "Whoa,"

Zac gave a little laugh.

"I really don't know you that well, Zac, but I'm kinda hoping we can change that,"

Zac put his forehead up against hers, "You took the words right out of my mouth,"

Paige smiled, and watched as Zac kissed her one more time.

"Zac, I hate to break this up, but it's getting late and I'm pretty sure my parents are getting worried,"

"Ok, but you gotta let me walk you home," said Zac, standing up taking Paige's hand.

"I dunno, can I trust you??" asked Paige, giving Zac a smile.

"Duh!!"

They both laughed. Zac led Paige down the sidewalk to her house, which was only of couple houses down.

"I'll see you tomorrow ok??" said Zac, once they came upon the front door.

"Alright, bye,"

Zac gave her a gentle kiss and waved good-bye. He walked back to his home, with the biggest smile on his face and the butterflies flying in his stomach.

*******

"Zac wake up!!" yelled Tay, trying to get Zac up, and off the couch.

There was a small groan. Then Zac took his pillow and smacked Tay.

"You doofus I was having this great dream about Paige!"

Taylor gave him a confused look, "Who's Paige??"

Zac sat up and looked at the clock, 7:00 pm. He rubbed his head. "A girl I ran into with my rollerblades,"

"Oh, care to tell me what the oh so wonderful dream was about??" asked Taylor, taking a seat next to Zac.

"Well we were star gazing and then I was telling her how beautiful she was and then she kissed me. Then she said she wanted to get to know me better. So I walked her home and then came back to the house. Then I came in our room and saw you and you grabbed me going 'WAKE UP, ZAC!! WAKE UP!!'" while saying this, he grabbed a hold of Taylor's shoulders demonstrating.

"Zac...Zac....ZAC!!!"

Zac looked at what he was doing. He took his hands off of his brothers shoulders. "Sorry. So how was your day with Brittnee??" he asked, giving him a glare.

"You don't want to know,"

"Yes I do. Why do you think I asked??"

Taylor sighed and looked at him. "Don't worry I won't be going out with her again. She's too shallow. She asked to go to a movie, I said sure. We saw 'Meet Joe Black'" Tay rolled his eyes and continued explaining his "date" "And on the way home she asked if I liked her more than a friend,"

This caught Zac's attention and he sat up real straight listening very carefully.

"I told her no, if you found out about me liking her you'd kill me right??"

Zac nodded quickly.

"Thought so then she was like, 'Forget Zac he's 3 years younger than me,' so I called her shallow and un grateful just because you're my bro and I love ya," finished Tay.

There was a silence and then Zac all of a sudden jumped on top of Tay and started hitting him, "You're lying, you're lying!! You like her and you know it!!"

"ZAC!!! QUIT!!! GET OFF OF ME!!! HELP!!!"

"Did you hear that??" asked Nicole, while Nicole and Isaac were sitting on Isaac's porch swing talking.

"Come on, let's go,"

As they walked in they saw Zac on top of Taylor punching him while Mackenzie, their little brother, was yelling. Taylor was trying, with all his might to get Zac off but Zac wouldn't budge he put all his strength into it.

"ZAC!!!" yelled Nicole, while running towards them. Once she got there she grabbed a hold of him and pulled him back. Once Taylor was free he went charging towards Zac, but Isaac grabbed him.

Taylor's eye was swollen and his lip was bleeding.

Nicole stood there and held on to Zac while Isaac held on to Taylor.

Mackenzie started crying, "Zackie, I thought you woved Tay-Tay,"

Zac forced his way out of Nicole's grip and went to hug Mackenzie but Mackenzie ran before Zac could even touch him.

Zac looked up, Taylor had gone into the kitchen to clean up his sores, Isaac just sat on the couch and Nicole stood there with her arms crossed.

"Look what you done! How can you be so stupid??" after that, she ran after Mack.
