"You're perfect, you know that?" Zack whispered into May's ear, the two of them were lying on the couch, May lying on top of Zack, her head on his chest.
"Thank you." She blushed, curling her arms around his neck, "I love being here with you."
"And you know what else May?" Zack asked softly, his lips pressing softly against her ear.
"Mmm?" May mumbled, tiredly.
"You're beautiful." He whispered, and May looked up and smiled brightly at him, and his hand found the way to the back of her neck and pulled her down into a loving kiss.
May's eyes opened quickly, and a smile was spread along her face, but she then sat up sharply at the realisation of what her dream was about.
"Oh my god! May!"
May jumped and looked over at Zell, who was staring at her from the camp bed, which May made him sleep in, while she took the comfy bed.
"What?" She asked, uncertainly.
"Why were you moaning my borther's name in your sleep?" Zell asked, grinning wildly.
"I wasn't..." May said, quietly.
"Uhm, yeah you were!" Zell insisted, and May knew he was telling the truth, "You sounded very...turned on, what was he doing to you?"
"Shut up!" May groaned, burying her head inthe pillow, going bright red, pulling the covers over her head, and Zell jumped out of his bed, pulled the covers back and slid into the bed, lying beside her.
"What are you doing?" May asked.
"I am not getting out you're face until you tell me what you're dream was about!"
"Fine...but you utter one word, and you will not be able to have fun with you're boyfriend for the next year! Who you still ain't told me about."
"Geesh...but Brownie Promise!" He said, solemnly holding up the correct three fingers.
"Okay." May laughed, and told the whole dream, her smile never faltering.
"God May!" Zell laughed, shoving her shoulder.
"What?"
"You have seriously got the hots for my brother!"
"Yeah so?"
"The sooner you 'fess you're burning anguish towards him, the quicker you can jump his bones."
"Zell! How can you talk about you're brother like that?"
"Meh...easy, I open my mouth and it comes out, so, when are you confessing, cause I wanna be there when you do."
"There will be no confessing anytime soon Zell." May sighed, getting out of the bed, and stared at her reflection in the full length mirror.
"Well why?" Zell asked, as May walked into large cupboard to change into clothes.
"Well..." She called from the cupboard, "It is complicated."
"What is so complicated about it?" Zell asked, "You just tell him."
May walked back out in baggy ripped jeans and a Muse absolution hoodie, pulling her hair into a ponytail.
"Because...I have my reasons." She sighed, drawing eyeliner on her eyes, looking into the mirror.
"Reasons you can't tell you're best friend?" Zell asked, standing out the bed.
"Right, fine. If we went out together, it would lead to...well you know...but I don't want him to see my body..." May muttered, and Zell walked straight up to her.
"Well why? You have a gorgeous body! Hourglass figure all the way! Girls would kill to look like you!" He insisted, "I know I do!"
May laughed lightly but shoved him in the arm and said,
"Look I am only gonna do this because you're gay okay? And will have no effect on you whatsoever."
"Okay?" Zell questioned, as May pulled off her T-Shirt hoodie, and stood before Zell in just her bra.
Her scars stood out red raw, the ones across her chest, along her arm, and up her side.
"That car crash has just, crushed me Zell." May sighed, running a hand up her arm, "I wouldn't want him to see me like this...I have more on my legs too...I am too hideous for him."
"May, baby." Zell sighed, as May pulled her hoodie back on, "You know what I think when I see those scars? That you have been in a hell of a lot, and you have survived through all of that shit, making you one of the bravest girls ever."
"Thanks Zell." She smiled as he hugged her tightly.
"And hey, if you ever wanna wear T-Shirts, thats why they invented foundation." Zell laughed, making May smile, "Hey, come on! Dad makes pancakes on Saturdays."
Zell grabbed May's hand, and lead her downstairs into the lving room, where his mother and Zack were watching some cooking program on the T.V. Zell sat down beside his mother on th couch and pulled May onto his lap.
"Awh! You two are so cute." His mother cooed, "Zack you need to get out there you know."
"I know." He seethed, glaring at the T.V from the armchair he sat in.
"Zell come and help me serves the breakfast with your father." His mother announced walking to the kitchen.
"I'll be back in a minute May." Zell sighed, kissing her cheek sloppily as a joke, and pushed her lightly off his lap.
May looked over at Zack and smiled brightly, as she slid over on the couch to where he sat on his chair, and she lent over the arm of the sofa.
"Last night was fun, we should watch a movie again sometime." May smiled.
"Yup." Zack breathed, flicking through the channles.
"Whats the matter? Grump-A-Lump?" May asked, tugging on his arm.
"Nothing!" He groaned, snatching his arm away, and stood up, "I'm going to my room until breakfast."
"Uhm...alright..." May said, backing away, watching Zack walk out the room.
May and Zell had left the house straight after lunch that day, so May could have a familiar walk around town, and they ended up walking to the park to sit on the swings, eating random stuff they'd bought around town.
"So, who is this guy you're dating! I need details....well not too many details." May asked, eating her sherbert dip.
"Well okay. He's called Matt. He's funny, great, smart, I love going out with him, and we have been going out since, like, a week after you left." Zell smiled, eating his gummi bears.
"How did you two meet?" May asked.
"Well, I was really down with you gone and all, as Ashley was really beginning to get to me, and after a serious fight, I was beginning to fall into this horrible depression, and at lunch, there he was. I was in the library hiding out and he just came over and began to talk to me."
"Awwwwh!" May cooed, making Zell blush, "So you have been going out for almost a month?"
"Something like that."
"Well it is so amazing you've got someone, while I on the other hand have no one."
"You'll get someone! Maybe my brother if you had the balls to ask him!"
"Zell...just give it up!" It is not gonna happen!"
"Anyway, on this subject, Zack told me you had a run-in with Ashley."

"Ah it's no big deal. She's really changed. What the hell happened?"
"Fell into the wrong crowd, you know Erica, Jade, Ben and Damien. Damien even asked her out but she chose Tony, just to annoy you more than likely."
"Why hasn't Tony changed?"
"He is afraid to do anything, in case it will upset her."
"Yeah I guess...come on, we better leave, your parents are going out tonight."
