Here it is, the second part to my "Unforgiven" trilogy for Saved By The Bell, this time, Zack thinks about his proposal to Kelly after he catches her in bed with Slater, still intended to be a heartfelt Zack/Kelly pairing, enjoy!
We All Make Mistakes
Zack couldn't wait, the day that he had waited for for three years had finally come, he tied his necktie with nervous thoughts, what if I'm not ready, what if Kelly isn't ready? Despite his being nervous, he still couldn't wait to marry his true love, he was about to walk out to his car when he heard loud screams coming from the back bedroom of Slater's apartment, "Slater and Jessie must be having problems if they're fooling around that much, hey guys, Slater, let's go!" Zack was surprised when he turned to see Jessie standing at the door, oh no, this can't be true.
As if on cue by Zack's thoughts, Slater appeared fully dressed in front of him, "Wow, that was fast, now where's the woman you were in there with?" Again as if on cue, Kelly came walking out of the bedroom, still bare from the waist up, "Oh my god, Zack you're here, it's not what you think!" Kelly screamed, this time out of frustration. "Oh, I didn't just hear you two in there, how was it Kelly?!" Zack shouted, "Zack, I'm sorry, it just happened! If I could take it back I would." she said through her tears.
"Yeah, so would I," Zack said, "What do you mean Zack?" Kelly asked, Zack's head hung, his eyes closed, "I wish that I never would've accepted your proposal, marry you, Kelly, I can't even stand to look at you, are far as I know, our friendship is OVER!" It took everything in Zack's power not to hit Kelly, and Slater, Zack couldn't even think of what he wanted to do to him. After his outburst, Zack stormed out of the apartment, he shouldn't be driving considering the mood he was in, but he couldn't be anywhere around Kelly or Slater right now, instead he drove home and barricaded himself in his claustrophobic bedroom, he decided that he would handle this the same way he ahd handled Jeff's abuse towards Kelly, through song. He sat there for three hours before he finally cooled down enough to face Kelly again, "Kelly, Slater, this is for you." he said, handing them the paper on which the song was written, the lyrics brought tears to Kelly's eyes,
Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I want to hear to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's open if you're true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this pair of lives
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no light shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn to stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone, dead sure she'll be there
What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn to stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, yeah, now I see it
I take this key and I bury it in you, because you're unforgiven too
Never free, never me, 'cause you're unforgiven too!"
Kelly wiped the tears from her eyes and looked for Zack, he was gone, what have I done, she thought, then she realized, the only way to solve this is to follow Zack's example and write a song to him that came from her heart, and she knew exactly what to say.
