Just A Number..

"Well then you talk to me and you wont have to speak with me about it, I will and ill make sure he does not mess with you."

Zac sighed.
"Memaw I don't want to..." He frowned slightly, looking up at his grandma.

"But baby this is not good. Really its not. WHat if he does hurt you? Your father would kill him."

"I know and I don't want him dead..." He sighed. "So, let me handle this. I'm a smart kid, if I sense he's going to hurt me I'llget away... he might be strong but I'm fast. Very." He really was.

"Zac....This about your family. I know him, he could get you and it would kill your mother and father and then who will be Rick Jr's bubba?"

Zac sighed
"Fine. I won't go see him memaw..."
Did he mention he was a great liar?

Mike rolled his eyes.
'Puh-lease. I raised BIDDY, BIDDY! Do you not know that he is the king of lying and tricks and just fucking evil!"

"You don't know me as well. Maybe you can't tell my lying face from my honestn one...." He shrugged, looking as innocent as possible.

"You never look that innocent, your full of shit kid and you know it. Hell, I should never let you talk to Biddy." Mike shook his head.

Damn. He overdid it. He attempted to fix his facial expression and tried again.
"Memaw I love you and momma, I wouldn't go and hang out with someone who did that shit to you guys..."

"I really wished I could believe you cared that much about us but I know you dont and I think its shitty that your using that to lie with...."

"How do you know I'm lying." He frowned. "I do love you guys... I just sorta got a fucked up way o showing it." He sighed with a shrug. He did...
But Quincy had just made him laugh, blush, flirt, all things he'd never really done much before. All in a matter of minutes. He'd go back to the park soon, talk about what he'd done to Kevin and Mike and if he was sorry,(which he had to be, right??) it would be okay for Zac to like him. He wouldn't feel as bad...

Mike sighed and turned over.
"Zac....Why would you wanna be with someone who hurt us so bad...?"

"I-I don't...?" Zac lied feebly. "How old is he anyways...?" Maybe if he was old it would be a turn off... but he looked so young. God, he had problems.

"Im in my hundreds and he is a year younger than me." Mike shook his head.
"I feel bad that Kevin loves you so much and you dont even seem to care baby..."

Zac concentrated on that fact for a moment trying to gross himself out.
No use.
The only thing that kept popping into his mind was "well then he's a fucking sex hundred something year old..." He drug a hand across his face.
"Memaw I DO care." He sighed.

"Okay baby, you keep telling yourelf that when your flirting with the man who forced your momma to suck his dick."

"Well I'll be willing..." He thought to himself, but his cheeks immediately turned a deep cherry red.
"Memaw please don't...." He said softly.

Mike sighed.
'Im just upset. I dont want you liking him after all he has done....."

"If you'll notice, I never said I did. You just seem to keep saying that." He pointed out with a helpless sigh.

"Zac, drop the act. We both know im right. Dont play me for a fool Child." Mike turned to look at him."

Zac sighed and simply frowned for a moment.
"He was sweet to me..." He said quietly.

"Your so desperate for someone like that....Why not Aaron? He is fifteen now, almost sixteen....More your age."

"First off, I've never met Aaron. Second, he's sorta related to me. That's gross." He said softly, blue eyes turning back to stare out the window.

"Zac its better than him baby....It really, really is." Mike sighed and shook his head.
