LATER…

drake's house was relatively nice. It turned out he was very good at baking. He offered zanessa some cookies, and they were gladly eaten. Drake even had post-it notes stuck to the fridge, neatly printed on.

"I have a guest bedroom over here," said drake, leading them down the hall. It was furnished well. Vanessa had always wanted an old fashioned bedroom. "you can stay as long as you need."

"thanks drake," said vanessa.

Zac noted drake's kindness. It seemed suspicious. And where was nardola? He needed to get her back as soon as possible.

"where is nardola?" he asked.

"she's safe," drake replied. Vanessa seemed satisfied with that answer.

Later that night, zac woke up. He heard vanessa writing something, the pen scratching across the paper loudly.

THE NEXT MORNING..

When he woke up, zac noticed vanessa had left the room. He heard drake say something and vanessa giggle. Zac was VERY curious what vanessa was writing before, so he looked around the room a bit.

Under the bed, zac found a little notebook he had never seen before. On the cover it said BABY V'S DIARY – DO NOT READ.

So of course, zac read. From two days ago it said in messy writing:

Oh my weech! I love Zachary so much. He is the best thing to ever happen to me! I cant wait for this baby girl to be born so we can have the best family evar!

Zac felt his chest tighten. He felt the same way. Then he saw the entry from last night:

I know zac is my husbond now and that's great, and we also have nardola, but I cant help but feel a certain attraction towards drake. He was once my everything too, and yes he did mess up but I think he's changed now! Maybe… I know this is wrong but… maybe he could be a part of our family too. Maybe I can have zac but have drake too…..

Zac was furious. Weech, nothing could stop him now. He stalked over to the bedroom door, flung it open, and headed straight for the kitchen. Drake and vanessa watched him questioningly, then their eyes widened in realization as ac reached for the biggest knife in the room.

Drake reacted quickly and grabbed a knife to defend himself. The boys leapt and dodged for quite a while, pots and pans and cutlery flying out of their respective places, but in the end, drake had a knife's blade stuck in his chest. He died.

Zac had a blade in his abdomen. He hadn't died.

"oh no," sighed vanessa.
