Best friends share more than just frustration

Chloe McRose let out a long sigh as she sat down on the couch, Gavin having left for the bathroom after Taylor walked away from them. The redhead knew she should be more understanding towards her second best friend, but she couldn’t help it, Gavin was starting to tire her out by refusing to talk about what he did to her the night before at Lisa’s cabin. She had suggested that they could just dance at first to break the ice, but so far, the only things her friend had warmed up to were Taylor’s moves.

It was as if the words died in his lips every time he opened them and a different thing altogether got said instead. ”He’s the guy, he’s the one who has to initiate the talk, right?” She asked herself, unsure.

Then, there was this whole party scene that Hannah put together, it was too much fast and loud that it was starting to give her a headache. She was beginning to feel like an inadequate alien in there. ”I wonder if anyone will mind if go back to Heather’s cabin.”

Zachary Bishop wasn’t a happy camper right now as he walked away from Hannah and Taylor. ”How dare she ruin one of the best moments on my entire life after telling me to have fun over and over again?!” He mentally yelled, seething at what his sister had done.

He stopped at the very center of the cabin’s living room, closed his eyes and counted to ten, making a scene would be of very little use at that moment. Reopening his eyes, he looked to his left and did a double take as he let the scene happening there sink in, Peter had Heather pressed against a wall, his mouth plundering hers as he caressed her hair with one hand and his other was hidden between their bodies. ”Don’t tell me they are…” He began to ask himself as he saw the way they were grinding.

Zack then tried to peer around their bodies, as stealthily as he could manage, and a sigh of relief made its way out of his lips when he saw that they were just dry humping over their clothes, although Peter had released one of Heather’s amazing tits from her dress and was mauling the soft flesh with his hand.

”Dammit!” Zachary swore, turning away from the scene, only to see that Victoria and Brandon were talking rather close to each other by the deck’s rails, laughter breaking out on the green-eyed blonde’s beautiful features.

”No, no, this isn’t how it was supposed to happen!” The distressed young man closed his eyes and began to walk over to the couches. He had already resigned himself to the possibility of Vicky and Heather hooking up with someone else, and when his oldest fantasy started becoming real in the form of Hannah, Zack was perfectly happy with that outcome. But then Taylor had to poke her nose in and ruin it all for him.

Nearing the couches, Zachary was able to see his best friend already sitting there. ”Always at the right place, at the right time.” He smiled, maybe Chloe would be able to calm him down as she always did. He plopped down beside her with an exaggerated huff. The redhead looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

“Tough night?” She asked, raising her voice.

“Yeah, you can say that,” Zack replied, turning to look at her as well. “You?”

“The same.”

“What happened?” Zack inquired, his own worries temporarily giving way to concern for his best friend.

“I was dancing with Gavin, then Taylor arrived and gave him a hard on,” Chloe answered. “He went straight to the bathroom as soon as she left, for all I know he’s there jerking off or something.”

Zack winced. ”Real smooth, Gavin,” He thought before smiling sympathetically at Chloe. “Well, then it looks like my night wasn’t the only one my dear sister ruined.”

Chloe gave him a strange look. “What do you mean?”

“There I was, making out with Hannah in a secluded hallway,” He made a pause, seeing that Chloe’s eyes had widened at his tale. “Then Taylor appears, out of nowhere, and tells me to get lost for no reason at all, can you believe such bullshit?”

“Ouch!” Chloe chuckled. “I’m sorry for you, I know how much you used to like Hannah.”

“Yeah, but let’s forget about that, the more I talk about it, the more I want to go back there and say a few words to my sister that I’ll probably regret later,” Zack said morosely. “What about you, wanna talk about Gavin?”

Chloe scrunched up her face and blew a strand of hair from her eye. “Not really.”

Zack nodded and then turned back to the room, frowning as his blue eyes scanned the place in search of everyone. A few feet from him and Chloe, Shawn was dancing rather roughly with a seemingly uncomfortable Kendra while Dustin had an eye on them and another on Victoria and Brandon at the deck. Speaking about his crush and his friend, they still were only talking by the rail.

”I wonder what they’ve so much to talk about.” He thought.

Aside from Gavin, Taylor and Hannah weren’t anywhere in sight as well, so Zachary surmised they were still at the hallway. ”I hope Taylor isn’t giving Hannah a hard time for what we did.”

Peter was still groping Heather’s breast while seriously humping her. Their tongues were battling so fiercely that Zack was about to call for a draw. ”Well, I guess she got pissed when Hannah pulled me away, can’t do anything but watch now.”

At the corner near the front door, Kurt seemed to be the highest scorer of the night, trapped between Ashley and Lisa as he was. Zack raised an eyebrow at seeing how forward the usually restrained Lisa and the faithful Ashley were being around the reformed older guy. Kurt was groping Lisa’s bra-covered breasts as Ashley caressed his chest with one hand and the bulge beneath his pants with the other. It even looked like her hand was inside his pants.

”Whoa! What the fuck is going on around here?!” Zack asked, realizing a second too late that he had said it aloud.

“What?” Chloe inquired.

“Nothing,” Zack replied before an idea suddenly sprung out inside his head. “Hey, do you want to, I dunno, come outside with me and take a breath from all this?”

Chloe grinned. “Best damn idea I’ve heard all night.” She said as both of them jumped to their feet and went over to the front door, passing through the budding threesome led by Kurt and slipping outside.

The air was a bit chilly as they left the steamy cabin and stepped out on the porch. The moon and a couple of lamps provided enough light for the two old friends.

Zack turned to his redheaded friend and his eyes briefly widened, taken aback by what he saw. Of course, he had noticed that in passing when they left Ravers’ Cabin, but now that it was just the two of them, he couldn’t help but stare at the beautiful young woman his best friend had become, even more so with the other girls’ help.

“You look very nice tonight, Chloe.” Zachary said, he felt it was his duty as best friend to give her a reassurance about her looks.

Chloe beamed at him, a wide smile gracing her features. “Thanks, Zack,” She replied. “You’re not so bad yourself, you know?”

He nodded and sat down on the porch’s steps, with Chloe soon following and sitting beside him. They stood there, just wordlessly staring at the trees surrounding the parking spot in front of the cabin and feeling the wind blow into their faces. ”How peaceful.” Zack thought.

“How did we end up here, Zack?” Chloe asked, breaking the silence. “We don’t even like this kind of stuff.”

Zack thought for a while, and finding no proper answer, he just shrugged. “Because of other people, I suppose.”

Chloe chuckled. “Other people who left us hanging.” She added.

“Yeah, ever since Taylor told me about the party, I guess I’ve started seeing this night as a defining moment, you know?” Zack asked, looking at his best friend. “But if everything led us to this night, and we ended up empty-handed, what do we have left?”

“Each other?” Chloe offered, shrugging and staring back at him.

Zack smiled, looping his arm around Chloe’s shoulders. “Always.”

As their blue eyes stared into each other’s, Zachary figured he would never be able to ascertain what exactly made him do what he did next, desperation, Chloe’s adorable features or the fierceness behind her eyes. He slowly leaned down towards her face.

Chloe’s eyes briefly widened as she looked at Zack’s descending face, he was unintentionally giving her plenty of time to dodge it, but she found herself not wanting to. Somehow, it was so natural for them to do it after everything that happened and the words they said to each other.

At last, their lips brushed against each other in a sweet kiss, their still opened eyes staring into one another. Hers were the first pair to flutter closed as he tentatively moved his mouth over hers, hearts pounding inside their chests due to the unexpected development to their old friendship.

When he felt Chloe’s soft lips start to move in sync with his, Zack’s eyes shot open and he gently backed off from the redhead, breaking off the kiss. Awkward looks were exchanged as the friends tried to make sense of what just had happened.

”Whoa! Where did that come from?!” It was the thought that was currently echoing inside both of their heads.

Seeing his old friend’s beautiful face staring up in shock at him, her clear blue eyes blinking in confusion, Zack realized he actually enjoyed that kiss, it was as if he was discovering a completely new Chloe. Nevertheless, he couldn’t allow himself to like it, he couldn’t do that to his other best friend.

“Chloe, we can’t,” He pleaded, vocalizing his worries. “Gavin.”

Hearing their friend’s name made Chloe’s will falter, but a couple seconds after that, a new expression of determination took over her features. The kiss startled her as well, but the more she thought about it, the more a kiss with Zack made sense and excited her, it just fit in her mind. ”We should’ve done it years ago.”

“Zack, as much as it pains me to say it, Gavin haven’t thought about me when he danced with Taylor,” Chloe fired back. “As a matter of fact, did Brandon and Victoria think about you when they slipped out to the deck? Or did Heather when she let Peter grope her in front of everyone? Taylor certainly didn’t when she pulled Gavin to dance or when she interrupted you and Hannah.”

Zachary raised an eyebrow, surprised by his redheaded friend’s answer, and he actually became even more alarmed when he realized she was right. However, he couldn’t bring himself to admit aloud that their friends hurt them, so he said the first thing that came to his mind once he stared into Chloe’s face again.

“I saw your pictures.”

Chloe immediately flushed in embarrassment. ”Oh my god, he knows! Who else does?” She thought, panicking. “Yeah? Uhn, and what did you think about them? Sorry I didn’t tell you about that, by the way, I was so ashamed of myself.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve deleted the ones from my phone.” Zack replied. Once he saw a hurt look breaking out on his best friend’s face, he resumed talking. “It was the first time I’ve saw you as more than my best friend, I think I’ve got so horny that night, that I ended up taking all my frustration out on Lisa.”

A vision of Zack’s long manhood plowing Lisa from behind flashed through Chloe’s mind, the unforgettable sight causing her to squeeze her legs together.

Zack gave her a small smile. “I know you saw us, Gavin told me.”

“Oh,” Chloe simply said, surprised by the new information. “In that case, well, you have a…, uhn, a really cool…, penis.” She stammered, mortified.

Zachary then chuckled and lifted her chin with his index finger. “I think you’re right,” He sighed, caressing her cheek with his thumb. “Even if just for a few moments, let’s forget about the others and think only about us, what do you say?”

Chloe smiled and reached a tentative hand to the back of his head, slowly bringing it down towards her own face. The chilly night was the only witness as the two best friends unveiled another exciting side of their friendship, kissing and holding each other at the cabin’s porch.
