Chapter 16 ~ Sex in the Water (best if you sing it to "Smoke on the Water" I know I'm a dork, hush.)
Hyde stood on the diving board of Mackenzie's pool, bouncing slightly, as he looked out towards her backyard. He had just been on a very rushed tour of Mackenzie's house and at the moment was only just getting over the experience. The house looked like a museum with the exception of the "apartment" over the garage, which belonged to Mackenzie. Though she had a room on the second floor along with the rest of the family, it was completely decked out in pink and blue, with ribbons and lace everywhere. It had reminded Hyde of Jackie's room and he couldn't blame Mackenzie for creating a makeshift living area away from everything else. Mackenzie's room had a kitchenette along with a full bathroom slash darkroom. The walls, which were at an angle leading to a point in the center of the room, were plastered with pictures of friends and posters of bands. You could barely see the walls under the layers of concert tickets, street signs and tapestries she had on them. Her bed stood in the middle of the room and black netting cascaded from the point of the ceiling down around the bed. Mackenzie had immediately jumped on the bed, nearly disappearing in the soft mattress and down comforter.
At the moment Mackenzie was lounging on the side of the pool dragging her leg lazily back and forth through the water while she talked in the phone, whose cord was stretched from the covered deck behind the house. She smiled devilishly at Hyde, while she muttered "uh-huh," and "that sounds cool" into the phone, and kicked water towards him. She was too far away, though, and the water fell short a few feet of reaching him.
He walked back off the diving board and over to Mackenzie. Hyde lifted his leg over the chair Mackenzie sat on and straddled it behind her. He put his head on her shoulder to see whom she was talking to. He could hear Benny's voice from the receiver and he immediately stood and walked away. But he hadn't even gotten two feet away before he turned back around.
Hyde grabbed the phone roughly from under Mackenzie's ear, catching her a bit off guard, and held it to his face. "Hello?"
"Who the hell is this?" Benny yelled angrily on the other end.
"Yea, sorry man, Mac's gonna have to call you back." Hyde walked back to the deck and hung up the phone before Benny had a chance to answer.
Mackenzie stood with her hands on her hips and her eyebrows narrowed, "What the hell was that?"
Hyde walked quickly over to her and easily lifted her over his shoulder. Mackenzie screamed and kicked, pounding his back with her fists. Hyde stepped next to the pool and threw Mackenzie in. However his plan backfired somewhat when she managed to grab his hand and pull him in as well.
Back at Pickford's house Benny stormed into the living room. He kicked a sleeping Don to wake him up and dragged Pink out from under Jody. "We're going over to Zee's house. NOW!" He commanded. The two boys lazily stood, rubbing their eyes and buttoning their shirts, and followed Benny out the door to his pickup truck outside on the front lawn.
"You ass! I can't believe you did that!" Mackenzie shrieked, her hair fused to the side of her face but already beginning to curl. She was treading in place, though she was finding it increasingly harder as her clothes weighed her down tremendously. She unbuttoned the cut off jean shorts she was wearing and threw them to the side of the pool, she then lifted her shirt over her head and threw it next to where her shorts lay, leaving her in only a gray cotton bra and matching string bikini bottoms.
Hyde peeled off the Led Zeppelin t-shirt he wore and kicked his jeans down around his ankles, leaving them at the bottom of the pool and leaving him clad only in the black boxers with the Rolling Stones logo on the butt that Donna had given him for his last birthday. He swam over to Mackenzie pinning her against the wall, "You know, sex in water is supposed to twice as good." Hyde winked at Mackenzie.
Mackenzie smiled coyly back at him and arched an eyebrow, "Really, you don't say." She moved closer to him and wrapped one arm around his neck to help hold herself up better. Mackenzie let her other hand glide down along Hyde's bare chest and stomach and then slip under the waistband of his boxers.
Hyde pulled his head back and looked at her incredulously. He was just playing around. He hadn't thought she'd really do it. Not that he really would have minded.
Mackenzie smirked and laughed a little before she disappeared under the water. As she swam under his legs she grabbed his boxers and pulled them off. Before she came up for air, though, she picked up the jeans that lay on the bottom and swam all the way to the steps in the shallow end of the pool. "Sex in water isn't all it's cracked up to be." She said through giggles. She walked over to the side of the pool in front of where he was still treading water and held his clothes up in triumph with her back to the house. Mackenzie waved them in front of Hyde's face and pulled them away just before he could grab them. She knelt down and held his dripping clothes behind her back. "Now, promise to be nice," She said, eerily sweet. Hyde nodded his head yes and grabbed at the clothes. Mackenzie pulled away once more, "Nuh-uh. Say you promise."
"Alright, alright, I promise." Hyde said in defeat. Mackenzie leaned forward and kissed him on his cheek while she dangled his clothes over the water. Hyde reached up and grabbed her, pulling her back into the water. He lifted her to thrown her but stopped he heard the door from the deck slide open.
"What the fucking hell?" Benny's voice boomed. Don and Pink muttered an "Oh, shit," in unison from behind Benny's back.
Hyde dropped Mackenzie and, realizing he was still naked, dove down in search of his boxers but with no luck he came back to the surface of the water to find a very upset Benny with a pair of boxers dangling from his index finger. "These belong to you?"
Mackenzie stood, her eyes wide, like her hand had just gotten stuck in the cookie jar. "Benny!" She smiled with mock enthusiasm. "Hey baby!" She swam over the side of the pool and lifted herself up. Benny grabbed her upper arm and lifted her so she was standing on her feet. Mackenzie went to kiss him but he turned his head. She smiled weakly at Pink and Don, "H-hey guys." They shook their heads at her, knowing trouble was the only thing to come from this.
"Who's up for a game of water polo?" Don said in a weak attempt to break the suffocating tension. Pink swatted Don's arm.
Benny, still holding firmly on Mackenzie's arm, tossed the boxers to Hyde, who after putting them on went to get out of the pool but stopped after noticing Mackenzie's warning gaze.
Benny had always been unreasonably jealous and extremely over protective of her. Once when Mackenzie had gotten mad at Benny, which she often did, she went out with the girls to a local bar. When Benny had shown up drunk, looking for her, and found her flirting with a guy three years older than them, he put him in the hospital for two weeks. This was a normal ritual for them and happened on average once a month. They usually made up the next morning, and always patched things up with sex. Their friends had all become used to the love hate relationship and they all thought they were both nuts, but Mackenzie and Benny never listened to reason because when they weren't ready to kill each other they were possibly the sweetest, most loving couple out of all their friends.
But now Benny was looming ominously over Hyde. Mackenzie shook her arm free. "Benny, I think maybe we should go inside and talk." Benny narrowed his eyes at Hyde but allowed himself to be pushed inside by Mackenzie. Mackenzie closed the sliding glass door behind them and immediate yelling could be heard outside.
After Mackenzie and Benny were at a safe distance Hyde swam to the side of the pool and grabbed his pants. But as he pulled himself out of the pool Pink and Don stepped towards him. Hyde looked up at them from where he was sitting, pulling up his pants. "Hey guys, what's up?" He said casually standing up and looking around for his shirt.
Pink was the first to move and grabbed Hyde's shoulder spinning him around to face him. "Only because I know Mac really likes you and because Benny and Mac's relationship is really fucked up, we're not gonna mess with you." He turned to Don and smiled, "Besides, Benny's gonna beat the shit out of you anyway, we don't want to soften you up or anything."
"Listen man, me and Mac weren't doing anything. We were just playin' around, that guy just needs to chill out." Hyde paused and turned back towards Pink and Don, "She really said she likes me?"
Don was just about to open his mouth to respond when they heard a loud crash inside where Mackenzie and Benny were. The boys raced to the door and opened it to find a sobbing Mackenzie on her knees, picking up broken shards of glass.
"Jesus Christ." Hyde muttered under his breath. The sound of a car peeling out of the driveway could be heard and Mackenzie looked up at them through tears. She stood and ran past Pink and Don's outstretched hands and into Hyde's arms. Hyde rubbed her back gently, ignoring the glares from Don and Pink.
Don bent down to finish cleaning the floor. Pink looked helplessly at Mackenzie's sobbing figure. He had always been the one Mackenzie had run to after one of her many fights with Benny. And now she could care less if he was even in the same room as her. "Hey, um Kenzie, listen, we better call Jody to come pick us up. We'll leave you guys alone."
Mackenzie turned, wiping her wet cheeks with the back of her hand. "No!" she whined, "You can't go. I came down here to see everyone and have fun. Fuck Benny." She laughed weakly and put on a smile, "Why don't you call everyone and tell them to come over here. Tell them to bring liquor though. Nothing kills a hangover better then starting a new one." She laughed again and walked over to Pink, giving him a hug.
"Yea sure, we'll get everyone over here." Pink released Mackenzie and turned to leave but Mackenzie held onto his arm.
She moved her head closer to Pink before she spoke in a hushed voice, "Just, could you find Benny? He's really upset you know how he gets. Just make sure he doesn't kill himself, or anyone else for that matter." Pink nodded his head in agreement. "Thank's Pink, I owe you one." She leaned in and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
Pink returned the gesture and called over his shoulder as he went into the kitchen to use the phone, "Please you owe me a helluv' a lot more then that."
