Zack Learns The Whole Truth

Kurt quickly stood up as Zack ran into his tent, "Listen to me, you've got to let me tell you my side of the story." Kurt pleaded,

"Talk to someone who gives a shit!" Gavin snapped back while stepping right up to Kurt, "Now sit the fuck back down,"

"Gavin, relax man," Brandon calmly said, "And Kurt, do what he says,"

"No, fuck that!" Kurt exclaimed, "I'm not gonna let that bitch run whatever story she wants-" Kurt growled back only for Gavin to sock him in the face. Kurt stumbled back and held his lip, it bled slightly, while a few gasps were heard from Ashley and Heather,

Gavin, internally shocked at what he just did, only glared at Kurt, "Sit. Down."

Kurt let himself stand up straight and rolled her neck, "Or what, you gonna hit me again?" Kurt asked while he licked his lip slightly, "Now, I'm gonna let what you just did go. Then, I'm gonna tell Zack what really happened before he-" Kurt said while taking a few steps,

Gavin instantly stood toe to toe with him, showing no fear in the slightest, "The only way you'd get that close to Chloe again, is only after you fucking killed me," Gavin growled back,

Kurt glared back at Gavin and angrily shook his head before turning back and sitting back down, "Fine, you don't want to hear my side, then whatever! But what you all think was happening, wasn't." Kurt grunted back while Ashley slowly took a seat next to Heather,

"What's he talking about?" Ashley asked, now visibly concerned, "What happened?"

"I-I don't know what fully happened but..." Heather whispered back, almost sounding scared of it being the truth, "But Gavin and Victoria think Kurt tried to **** Chloe,"

"What?" Ashley said with another gasp, "What the...how in the hell...what the fuck." She stammered out, scarcely able to believe it,

Meanwhile, Zack entered the tent and saw Victoria sitting right next to Chloe, who was hugging her knees, staring at the floor. Victoria's sweater was still the only thing that covered her, and she hadn't said a word since Victoria and Gavin showed up. "Zack," Victoria whispered out, relieved by his sight, "Chloe, Chloe, it's Zack, see?" She said lightly shaking her shoulder, "It's Zack, sweetie,"

Zack to a few steps forward and knelt down, "C-Chloe?" Zack asked, terror, filling his body with her sight, the way she was and what she was wearing didn't seem to make sense in his head,

Chloe blinked a few times, Zack's voice registering in her head, she looked up, and her eyes immediately welled up. Chloe burst into tears and clambered towards Zack, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Chloe wailed out as she clung to Zack, nearly like her life depended on it,

"It's okay," Zack replied while taking some heavy breaths, the pit in his stomach growing as he saw the wreck of his friend, "Chloe, I know Ashley lied, I know you didn't-" Zack tried to say only to stop, Chloe had her arms wrapped around Zack's right arm, she pushed her whole body into his chest. To Zack, it felt like she was trying to use him for protection, and his own body vibrated as Chloe shook wildly, "Oh god, Chloe, what happened?" Zack asked before he looked up at Victoria, when Chloe didn't respond, who nervously looked at the floor,

"I'm sorry," Chloe whimpered out again, "I made a mistake...I made a mistake,"

"Vicky, get me her shirt, please," Zack nearly begged, Victoria looked around quickly and grabbed her shirt handing it to Zack, "Chloe, let's get your shirt back on, okay? Can you do that?"

Chloe looked up at him, her lips trembling, before slowly nodding, "Y-Yes,"

"Okay, that's good," Zack softly murmured back before finally letting her go. Chloe reluctantly pulled away from Zack and watched as he helped get her shirt back on. As soon as Chloe was covered up, she pushed back into Zack's embrace, her body still shook wildly, "Chloe, I'm not mad, I'm so sorry for leaving like that, but I know Ashley lied. I-I don't know what was going through her head when she said that to me, but I know you didn't do anything, so please, just calm down, please..." Zack explained, hoping that Chloe was actually panicking over him and nothing else. He waited a few moments, Chloe still trembled in his arms, Zack knew something was very wrong, something had actually happened, "Victoria, what happened after I left?"

Victoria lowered her head and gulped, "Zack...I don't know how else to say it but...I think-we all think, that Kurt tried to **** Chloe." Victoria said causing Zack's eyes to go wide, his grip immediately tightening around Chloe,

"W-what?" Zack said, the wind nearly knocked out of him, "Chloe...fuck, Chloe," He whispered, his voice breaking slightly while his moved a hand to her head, pulling her as close to him as he could, "What...how did it happen? What did he..."

"I don't know," Victoria replied, "We only...Gavin and I heard Chloe yell at Kurt to get off, and when we got to the tent she was in the far corner without her top, shaking, while Kurt was at the other side,"

"He-" Chloe finally said, her voice nearly inaudible, "He told me sex would make me feel better. Zack, I was-I was so scared...so lost and I didn't know what to do. I didn't even know what was happening until he was on top of me." Chloe explained, more tears rolling down her rosy cheeks, "I told him, no, but he just-" Chloe said, nearly looking sick, "He just kept kissing me, telling me to relax. He only got off me once I yelled," Chloe said before pushing her face back into Zack's shoulder, "I'm sorry, Zack," Chloe said in shame,

Zack's face started to tighten, his lips pursed as his eyes flared up, "No, you have nothing to be sorry for," Zack firmly said while slowly running his hand up and down her back. Victoria stared at Zack's face; she could tell he was thinking of doing something already, "That...that sonofabitch," Zack growled out, "That mother fucking...piece of shit..." Zack continued, gritting his teeth,

"Zack," Victoria quickly said, causing his eyes to snap over to her, "Zack, that's not everything,"

"There's more?!" Zack exclaimed, his eyes full fury,

"Not with Kurt, but with Ashley," Victoria replied causing Chloe to look back to her instantly,

"Vicky...don't, not now," Chloe lightly begged,

"No, tell me, I need to know," Zack quickly but firmly interjected,

Victoria looked at Chloe sympathetically for a moment, "I'm sorry, sweetie, but he has to know, this has gone too far." Victoria said to her before looking at Zack, "Zack, ever since you and Chloe went official, Ashley's been trying to break you up. She's not just into you; she's obsessed." Victoria explained, causing for Zack's stomach to turn, "She broke up with Brandon as a move to make herself available and to keep an innocent appearance, she's been telling Chloe that you'd grow bored of her soon and that you really want her." Victoria explained, once again turning disgusted in the person that used to be her best friend, "Zack, she's basically been torturing Chloe for the last three days,"

Zack's jaw locked, "What. The. Fuck." He hissed out, his whole body trembling now, his fists clenched, turning his knuckles white. Zack shut his eyes and took a slow breath, he unclenched his fists, and the red color of his face started to dissipate. Chloe could feel the shift in him and quickly looked up, Zack merely looked down at her and lightly pressed his lips on her forehead, "Vicky, please stay with her," Zack said, in an eerily calm voice that nearly sent a chill down the blonde's spine.

Chloe let out a very soft, and very concerned whine as Zack got to his feet, making her grasp on him fall away. "Zack? Zack, where are you going?" Chloe asked as he turned away and walked out of the tent in silence. Chloe's eyes were wide, and she quickly looked to Victoria, "Where's he going?" She asked, her voice breaking. Victoria, her eyes wide as well, could only shake her head back, not knowing what Zack was about to do.
