Silver Rain
Five


"So. How was Zac Hanson's kiss?" Jennifer eagerly asked me as we threw down our towels at the hotel pool. Nobody was swimming, so we decided it would be fun to take a dip.

"Why do you care?" I spat out angrily. We were both intoxicated, it probably should have never happened.

"Come on...You kissed the famous Zac Hanson." Nicole screamed loudly as I put my finger to my mouth, telling her to shut up or at least lower her voice.

"It was just a mmmbop." I whispered, and I was sure that it was because...Well look at me! Zachary Walker Hanson would never like me! It was a mistake, we were both intoxicated.

"What? No!" she yelped and jumped into the pool, a bunch of cold water splashing out and drenching me. Her hot pink bikini glowed like a neon light beneath the water.

I slowly slid into the water, a cold shock coming over my body, but within seconds I was used to it. My plaid blue and green bikini sticking to my body as I splashed Nicki. "Yes it was a mmmbop!" I yelled as she let out a terrifying shriek, diving underwater and swimming away from me.

"I Love Issac Hanson!" Jen screamed across the pool to me. Her brown eyes dancing with everlasting delight as she did so. Then she slapped the water, making it fly into her blonde locks.

"WHERE'S THE LOVE?" Someone shrieked as a big gush of water flew at both of us, forcing our hair to cling to our faces. As soon as the water settled I saw wet long blonde locks, dark caramel eyes, and spaced white teeth grinning at me...Zac. His blue and white football Jersey clinging to his upper torso, as a pair of blue swim shorts fitting his bottom. He laughed. Then gave me one of them I-didn't-do- it looks.

Behind him, sitting on the side of the pool, feet dangling in the water was Tay and Ike. How long had they been there? Did they hear our huge argument about them? Hope not.

"Turn me lose like a one-eyed goose!" Zac shrieked, as he does in the song, 'Look at you'. "Yoww, baby Yeah!" He sounded so adorable, standing there acting up for his shyness by being wacky.

I glanced to Jen, she was thinking the same thing as I was. Quickly we both swam over by Tay and Ike. I by Taylor. She by Issac. Grabbing their hands and pulling. They flew into the water with a splash, soaking the three of us even more.

All five of us started splashing water at each other, giggling and laughing as we did so. I looked to Zac, laughing hysterically. Jen staring at Issac as he dunked her underneath the water. Taylor, his light blue eyes shined, so brightly it gave me an odd feeling of comfort.

~*~ A Hour Later ~*~

Drenched, I sat on the tiling floor of the pool room, in between Taylor and Zac. Who were also as wet as a dog. Jen and Issac were still dunking each other under the water. They hadn't kissed yet, but I predicted they would by the end of the night. It was 8:30, almost nine.

We had gone to the mall earlier that day, me and Jen. I bought a good-bye gift for Zac and Tay. Issac was covered by Jennifer. What a given. I seriously couldn't believed she liked him, I mean Tay or Ike? Of course Taylor!

"Kiss her!" Jen screamed from in the pool to Zachary. A wide smart ass grin fixed upon her face as she stared at me. She didn't want it to be a mmbop, but why? And why so open?

All of the sudden I felt Taylor's warm lips upon my cheekbone, inches below my left eye. My jaw dropped as I was feeling his tender touch on my cheek. I glanced to Jen, her eyes were wide as were Issac's. Who seen both his brother's kiss me.

I looked to Zac, his dark caramel eyes full of hate, envy, and disappointment all at the same time. A thin layer of tears covering over his eyes, squeezing out through his eye lashes. His full lips quivered and trembled as he stared at us...me.

"Zac..." I called as he sprinted out of the room, tears flooding down his cheeks. I stood up and started to follow him, but I felt a tug on my arm. Turning around I stared into Taylor's blue eyes, inches away from his devilish lips.

"Let me go. It was my fault." Tay begged, his eyes gleaming.

"Do you think that he is going to want to talk to his brother who totally just, just...you just kissed me!" I screamed, my eyes shooting to where Zac had just left. "You had No right!"

"I'm sorry!" He cried as I turned and darted out of the room, in search for Zachary. He wasn't anywhere in the hallway, where could he be? Then it hit me, where we were when we first met. I ran to the lobby, empty as usual 'I Think God Can Explain' by Splender was playing softly as I brushed past the doors. The sun had gone down, the air was cold on my skin and it was absolutely silent outside. Maybe he wasn't out here.

All of the sudden I heard a lone sniffle coming from my right. "Zac...?" I called out into complete darkness.

"Go away!" was the angry remark that I got back. His voice hard and filled with hatered. I wandered over to the bench, Zac's figure curled up on it, his face hidden behind the shadows. Sitting down next to him I stayed absolutely silent, my body covered in goose bumps. The corners of my eyes started to twitch as I held back tears, I never wanted Tay to kiss me.

Yeah, I always had this feeling inside of me when I used to look at him. But since I ran into Zac, Tay's been nothing. His hair's cut cute, and he's got the cutest blue eyes, but that's all. No deep feelings for him what-so-ever. If there ever was any feelings.

"Are you doing to cry?" Zac asked, leaning forward, his face coming out of the shadows. His hair clung to his face, his eyes red, and his face was twisted in what seemed to be unbearable pain. I didn't answer him, until he fell back against the bench again.

"I'm sorry if I made you cry. I'm sorry if tears fell from your eyes. I'm sorry if I hurt you. For that was not at all what I intended to do. But just remember for every tear that falls from your eyes...two tears fall from mine." I sang softly. He and his brother's had wrote the song when they were younger.

"So...you didn't want Tay to kiss you?" Zac said, drying his tears and fighting back incoming tears.

"Of course not." I spat out quickly. Who would want Taylor when you could have Zac? Because at this second I knew Zac must have liked me. Grinning he pulled me into a hug, holding me there for awhile. It felt great being in Zac's arms. All of the sudden he pulled away standing up quickly. I glanced at him, what was it? What did I do this time? Did he figure out how worthless and ugly I was? Then he said it...

"But you didn't say you wanted me either." He took off into the hotel, leaving me to sit alone on the cold bench. I must have been there for fifteen minutes before heading inside for the night.
