Zack Decides To Go Last

As the group all reached the beach, there was a rather nonchalant separation between the friends, mainly Brandon and Kurt staying away from Zack, Ashley, and Chloe while Victoria and Gavin stayed a bit away from all of them. Heather, on the other hand, made her rounds, moving around each of her friends, giving them a small glare, "I'm paddling again, so who am I taking to mainland first?" Heather asked with an expectant brow raise,

"Ash, Chloe, you two go," Zack replied while putting his hands on the small of the girl's backs and lightly pushing them forward. The redhead and blonde looked at each other, and both grimaced, "Go on, you can survive without me for a few minutes," Zack lightly chuckled, "I'm gonna head back last,"

"Why?" Ashley whined while turning back to face the teen,

"Because, things are awkward, and I don't want you two sharing a ride with anyone but me, and I'm not gonna share a ride without anyone but you two," Zack replied with a firm tone, "Now go on and scoot,"

"But Zack...Brandon and Kurt?" Chloe whispered out in a concerned tone,

"It'll be fine," Zack reiterated, "Just go on McRose," He insisted with a small chuckle,

"God, will you two just get on the boat!" Heather exclaimed with a toss of her hands, "It's going to be like twenty minutes tops," With Heather's outburst, Ashley and Chloe slowly wandered towards the boat, each clutching a tent under their arms. "Yes, yes, the illustrious, fuckable, Zack Bishop will see you both soon, now come on," Heather pushed as the trio climbed into the boat, "Alright be right back for you two," Heather said while looking over to Brandon and Kurt, "No monkey business, I mean it," The brunette sharply stated,

"Yeah," Brandon nodded as he kept his head turned as to not look at Ashley or Zack,

"Whatever, just go already," Kurt muttered as he crossed his arms and wandered up the beach.

With that said, Heather began to paddle away in the small boat, though Chloe and Ashley had their heads turned, staring at Zack as long as they could before disappearing into the distance. Once gone, the remaining teens on the island went completely silent, neither able to say a word. Gavin internally panicked about having to talk to Victoria about Heather. Victoria feared and was confused about her feelings for Zack. Then Brandon and Kurt, of course, wanted to keep their eyes off the teen who had seemingly bested them or betrayed them.

Luckily the silence lasted, and when Heather returned, Brandon and Kurt got onto the boat without a fuss, bringing Zack some real relief once they left sight. "Phew, I thought I might get drowned," Zack admitted causing Gavin and Victoria to snap over at him, "You know because they hate me and all that?" He clarified with a set of confused eyes, "Are you guys okay?"

"Yeah, sure we are," Gavin instantly replied,

"Why wouldn't we be?" Victoria blurted out in agreement before her cheeks turned red and she was **** to take her eyes off the teen,

"Uh...okay, you two just seem pretty...quiet or whatever," Zack mumbled as he awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck,

"Yeah, um...I'm just tired, man," Gavin replied with a small smile, "Didn't get much sleep, you know?"

"Ah, right," Zack nodded back understandingly, "That makes sense,"

"What do you mean by that?" Victoria frowned while glaring at him, "I don't need sex or anything, Zack!" She indignantly exclaimed,

Both Zack and Gavin went wide-eyed from the outburst, "I-I never said you d-did," Zack stammered back,

"Good!" Victoria said while turning her back to Zack, "I-I...Gavin and I have sex when the times right, not every night or every day."

"Vicky, I don't think Zack was trying to insult us," Gavin pipped up with a confused scratch of his head,

"I didn't say he insulted me, I...I was just explaining myself," Victoria corrected the geek before the trio went silent. Zack looked at Gavin, who could only shrug at his girlfriend's response to his simple phrase, before wandering away from the two and sitting down on the beach. Internally he was grateful when Heather returned taking away the couple for the next return trip.

Zack shook his head as he was left on the beach, "Maybe I should just stay here," He mumbled out to himself, "I mean, I'm likely to be beaten to **** when I get back there. Everyone is losing their fucking minds over this shit..." He added on with a sigh, wondering if he was stay going to be **** to pick one girl for his own sake to get the others off his back. Though, thanks to this day, now the choice that seemed so easier earlier, became much harder now. Another ten minutes passed by then Heather returned with a smile, "Hey," Zack said with a wave while picking up the remaining bags and putting them into the boat,

"Ready to go, Bishop?" Heather smiled as she watched him load up before hopping onto the boat,

"Sure," He shrugged back as he got settled and looked at Heather,

"Alright..." Heather nodded as she pushed the oar into the sand under the water and pushed them back towards the center of the lake, slowly spinning them around, "You okay?" The brunette asked in a slightly concerned tone,

"Sorta?" Zack replied with another shrug, "Things have gotten kinda weird over this trip...and really weird just today,"

"Tell me about it," Heather giggled, "Zack Bishop is dating and plowing two girls who love him dearly, now that's something I never thought I'd see in my life. Not that I'm judging or even insulting, mind you, just didn't think you'd be one for polygamy," Heather explained,

"I didn't think I was either," Zack scoffed, "It wasn't really my call, Chloe and Ashley were the ones who came up with this idea, and I'm just kinda...going along for the ride,"

"Oh you can lie to everyone else, and maybe even yourself, but you can't lie to me Bishop," Heather retorted with a small frown, "You like this too. You like having two girls to yourself because, A, they are beautiful girls who are obsessing over you. B, you get to fuck two different girls and even be in threesomes, almost every guy's dream. And, C, you liked rubbing it guys faces that you are being a lady killer,"

"What? No, I don't," Zack denied, unable to look Heather in the eye,

"Yeah you do," Heather grinned, "I heard about you sticking it to Kurt earlier," She said causing Zack to squeeze his eyes shut and blush, "Yeah, you got my cousin so riled up over this he's even complaining to me when you knocked him down a few pegs. Which, for the record, I do find pretty hilarious,"

"Well...what do you want from me? He tried to fuck Chloe, telling her I wasn't enough for her, then he tried to tell me I wouldn't be able to satisfy and keep them now. So, yeah, I fired back with something, I could see he was jealous and everything," Zack stated with a small toss of his hands, "I'm not doing that to Gavin though, I don't want to be seen as some asshole using them,"

"I wasn't saying that," Heather assured him, "I find it funny that everyone's assuming that you're taking advantage of the situation or something but fail to understand that women can want some crazy stuff sometimes. I bet the thought didn't even cross anyone's mind that Chloe and Ashley wanted this more than you did,"

"Yeah, well, it's not a very common thing to happen," Zack stated with a breathy laugh,

"True, but a girl wanting to get taken by every guy staying at the cabin isn't common either," Heather stated with a broad smile causing Zack to freeze and simply stare her in the eye, "Brandon...Kurt...Gavin...and you, that was my secret fantasy," The cheerleader continued with a lick of her lips, "And I may or may not be getting most of that thanks to you,"

"A-Are you serious?" Zack asked, his jaw slightly dropping,

"Don't worry about me, you worry about yourself," Heather replied with a small wink, "Oh yeah, due warning, I invited you ex-girlfriend and Brandon's sister over so...watch yourself,"

"What?" Zack almost gasped as his eyes bugged out, instantly forgetting what Heather told him and instead focused on what Lisa would think of him and what Madison would do to him once he got back to shore.
