Summer's over and he accepted that he fucked up something that could've been great between he and Corrine. She went back to school and he went back to Blake Holsey. The school year started off the same, and he was bored with it. It's now time for winter break. It was nice to see that talking with his former students reminded him why he loved teaching. He talked to Josie and Vaughn. There was a question as to whether the baby was Vaughn's, and it turns out that the baby is Vaughn's, but they still have to work out their problems…both of them were cheating on each other.

So, he found himself at their baby shower. They really didn't get a proper one when she was pregnant with the drama and all. They looked happy now…

"Hey, Z!" said Vaughn.

"Hey! How does it feel to be a father?"

"Stressful. My dad said it'll get a lot harder as time goes on."

"You'll be fine. And how is the mother?" he said to Josie as she walked around holding their baby girl, Emma. Josie was looking better and looking like…Josie again.

"Tired. She barely sleeps."

There was a knock on the door.

"I'll get it." Vaughn said.

He heard joyful yelling near the door. Lucas walked in holding a gift in his arms. He set it down on the table and noticed Z.

"Hey, how are you?" he said.

"I'm great, how are you?"

"I'm great. I'm in school as you know. I share an apartment with Marshall. We go half and half on rent…Although, Corrine should pay too."

"She lives with you, too?"

"No. She and Marshall got back together. Oh, here they are. I was wondering what was taking them so long."

There she was looking as beautiful as he last saw her. She was wearing a black shear blouse over a black cami with tight jeans…That's when he started to miss summer, she wore more revealing clothes. She still looked the same…only she had Marshall on her arm now. She saw him and tried to avoid him. Josie was staring at them and had this worried look on her face. He wondered if Corrine told her about them. He hated how Corrine was holding Marshall's hand, kissing him, being obviously affectionate…making him jealous.

"Time for the gifts!" shouted Josie eagerly.

The gifts weren't typical baby shower gifts. They were more for Josie and Vaughn…the naughty gifts. Everybody didn't want to see those two split so everyone thought it would be good to get them something that will keep them together. There were whips and paddles and stuff. But, Z couldn't concentrate on that. He constantly looked over at Marshall and Corrine and hated it. He thought he had moved on…or at least he thought he wouldn't have to see her again. Now, she's here in front of him, and he can't have her. Their eyes connected and he could see that she still wanted him. She couldn't deny him, he thought. The passion between them was so great, it couldn't be denied.

Everybody were leaving and said goodbye to Josie and Vaughn.

"Oh," Marshall yelled, "Don't forget, Lucas' birthday bash at our place. My band, Magnet 360, will be playing. It'll be crazy fun…bring a friend…Don't forget."

"Okay, Marshall…" Josie said as she rolled her eyes.

Z was on his way out when he heard Josie and Corrine talking.

"Josie, who invited Z?"

"Vaughn…I'm sorry, he doesn't know about…I never told him. Was it too awkward?"

"Hell yes!"

"Sorry. Hey, wanna help me clean up?"

"Sure."

He left and was caught off guard by the cold winter night. So, Josie knows about them, but why didn't she act different towards him? He just wondered if Corrine told Marshall about them.
