She's furious; they have a fight

“Victoria,” Zack croaked out. “It’s not what you think.”

It took a few seconds for Victoria to regain the ability to speak. “It’s not what I think?” She asked angrily while advancing on them. “I saw you clear as crystal, kissing her and it’s not what I think?! Explain that to me, then!”

“She kissed me!” Zack exclaimed as he began to panic. He turned to Kendra. “Tell her! Tell her that it was you who kissed me!”

“I’m sorry,” Kendra said in a sad tone. “We were talking about the BBQ tomorrow and the possibility of everyone going swimming, then his eyes glazed over and he jumped me, I couldn’t push him away!”

“You liar!” Zack shouted, his eyes widening. “Why are you doing this to me?!”

Tears began to fall from Victoria’s green eyes. “I can’t believe this.” She cried.

Back inside, Taylor and Peter heard the commotion and jumped to their feet, rushing outside while Shawn grinned to himself.

At that moment, Dustin got out of his room and looked at his brother with an inquisitive look on his face. “What’s all this noise about?”

“From what I got, it seems your girlfriend’s boyfriend did something very naughty and she didn’t like it one bit,” Shawn replied in a drawling manner. “Well, victory is yours, I guess,” He added as his brother ran outside. “Or mine.”

Outside, Zachary was still desperately trying to convince Victoria that he was telling the truth. “You have to believe me, please, Vicky!”

“Don’t call me Vicky!” The blonde yelled.

Zack closed his for a couple of seconds, and when he opened them again, Dustin was stepping out into the deck.

“If you hadn’t spent the whole night with him, you could’ve prevented this mess.” He said.

Victoria turned to him, anger in her eyes. “So, I find out you’re a jerk and it’s my fault?!” She pointed to herself in disbelief. “Dustin is someone very dear to me, how can you expect that I don’t even talk to him?”

“Not the whole night!” Zack argued. “I thought that after what we did, you’d want to be with me!”

“I wanted to, but not anymore!” Victoria shot back, her voice filled with malice.

Zack couldn’t take it anymore and turned his back to her. He felt like crying now, he was so close of realizing his long standing dream of getting Victoria to be his girlfriend, only to see everything ruined by a crazy slut.

Back at the door, Taylor leaned in to Peter’s ear. “Hey, Peter,” She said. “Do you still take those sleeping pills to sleep?”

“Sometimes,” He turned to her. “Why?”

“Can I borrow one?” The brunette asked and her friend nodded. “I think it’ll be for the best if Zachary sleeps here tonight. And I want him to be able to sleep all night, so that tomorrow everyone can talk with their heads in the right place, when the dust’s already settled.”

“That’s probably a good idea, I guess. The pills are at the bathroom’s cabinet,” He then looked again at the distressed teens. “Damn, what a mess.”

“Another thing,” Taylor said. “Can you and Dustin take Victoria back to their cabin? You know, so she doesn’t walk alone in that state?”

Peter nodded, and while he went to get Dustin’s help, Taylor began walking over to her troubled little brother. Her heart went out to him, the poor boy looked destroyed, like he was about to cry. *”I swear that if he cries, I’ll cry along with him.

On her way there, Kendra stepped in front of her. “Taylor, I…”

“I’ll deal with you tomorrow,” The blue-eyed brunette hissed, her raspy voice making her sound even more threatening. “Now, go to your room.”

“You’re not my mother.” Kendra mumbled.

“Kendra, I’m only going to say this once more,” Taylor whispered. “Go to your room right now or so help me god, I’m gonna chuck you down this deck for what you did.”

Kendra stared at her for a couple of seconds and then wordlessly walked back to the interior of the cabin.

As Peter and Dustin were leading a crying Victoria away, Taylor sidled up to Zack and hugged him. He leaned into the hug and they stood that way for several seconds before breaking away.

“C’mon, let’s get you into bed.” She said, gently.

Zack nodded and followed his big sister inside, grateful that he had her in his life.
