Life Moves On • Zach Herron

twenty three

thursday

me and jas have been talking more over the past few days

she said she only wants to be friends and i agreed to that but if i could i would make her mine again

but i'm happy that we are friends again because i thought i had lost her forever physically and as a friend or girlfriend or whatever she is willing to be for me

i let zach back into my life and since then i'm not gonna lie life has became easier, not having to avoid anyone is amazing

we mutually agreed that we will be friends and no more than that, that's all i want and zach agreed that he only wants to be friends

as soon as we were able to leave literature on monday i went straight to jonah's dorm to tell him everything

he said if i wanted to be friends with zach again then he is fine with that. we then went through the awkward reunion of zach and jonah, in which it was the first time they had seen or spoke to each other since freshman year in high school

zach still hangs around with corbyn and his group but when he isn't zach will spend time hanging out with me and jonah too

right now though zach is showing me and jonah where his dorm room is

"my roommate won't be here, he never is" zach says as we walk down the long corridor with all the identical doors, his dorm room is on the floor above mine and at the jonah's, so overall not too far away

when we arrived in front of the door that has the number 183 on it, we stopped and zach opened the door so we could go inside

at a first glance the room was almost identical to mine; two beds, a large closet, a door which will lead to a small bathroom and a small kitchen area

i start to notice the smaller personal touches that have been applied to the room although they are all mainly on zach's half of the room, it doesn't even look like someone even lives on the other half of the room

zach's side is decorated with pictures of him and his family in little frames and i also notice another picture that is stuck to the bed frame but from here i can't quite work out what it is

"my part of the room's not much i know and he just looks as if he doesn't live here" he says looking over at his roommates half of the room "yeah i was thinking that" jonah says and i nod

"this is cute" i say looking at his pictures that are stood on a shelf above his bed, now that i'm closer i can see them better

"yeah i miss my mom and dad sometimes so i put some pictures up to make me feel like i'm at home" he says looking between the pictures

"so what should we do?" zach asked as he sat on his bed, i went and sat next to him and jonah sat on his knees on the floor in front of us "i've got no idea" i say and shrug, a ding noise interrupted just as zach was about to say something, he picked up his phone and rolled his eyes

"what's up?" i ask "corbyn" he simply answered and i looked at jonah, jonah simply pulled a 😬 face at me (i didn't know how to explain that face haha)

"what's he saying?" jonah asked "he's trying to get me to come to the party tomorrow but i honestly don't want to after the last one" he says and a thought runs through my head "what happened at the last party?" i ask speaking my mind before i can even think about it

"some shit i'm kinda ashamed of, basically i got plastered on god knows what type of alcohol, did a load of shit and then slept on the kitchen table"

"wow i wasn't expecting you to say that" jonah says and we laugh "seriously though did you actually sleep on a table?" i ask and zach nods

"yep that's why i don't wanna go again" zach says and me and jonah both nod "just don't go then" i say and zach smiles a little bit

"i'd love to but it's not that easy"
