Summary:

Trust issues are characterized by fear of betrayal, abandonment, or manipulation. Mackenna knows all these things. She had seen this kind of shit before and she would be damned if she go through this all over again. If you get hurt that badly, you have exactly two options; either you allow yourself to be broken or you show them that you can't be broken. Mackenna chose the latter. She don't do relationships anymore but she do a lot of other things. Partying, some one night stands and sometimes even free blowjobs. Why? Because she enjoys it. What she didn't enjoy like not at all is when she meets a certain drug dealer who she likes better than she should. She don't do relationships anymore, right?

Hey my simps and pimps (:

I know nobody likes forewords in a story but i think it's a important thing because it contains information.

First of all; english isn't my first language, but I've been learning this language for a few years now and i'm still learning it, so if there's anything grammatically wrong, don't be shy and correct me. (:

second of all; the story won't follow the show one - to - one, since this is a fanfiction and not a retelling, but there will be some scenes from the show.

Chapter Text

They say as a drug addict nothing is more important to you as the drugs themselves, but that's not true. 

At least not in my case.

When I was 14 my father died. Shit like that feels like the rug has been pulled out from under you.

If she hadn't been there, I would have fallen deeply. so deep that the impact would have killed me. 

I've almost completely lost touch with reality. First I was sad, then angry, than high most of the time. 

But one thing I wasn't; alone

I had her. 

Mackenna Donahue.

Mac and I have known each other since we were little kids. Toddler actually. She moved from Newcastle upon Tyne to East Highland with her mother. 

I still think that's a stupid decision. Why would you choose to go from some big ass england town to an american town built by a person like Cal Jacob's. 

Whatever.. i'm not complaining because Mac's friendship is one of the most important things in my life. This girl is my lifesaver. Whenever I needed someone to talk to, she was there. She never judged me. Not when I texted her to ask if I could come to her place to cry for an hour and not when I started drugs. She wasn't a fan of it for obvious reasons, but she didn't consistently criticize me for doing that shit. 

Needless to say, I felt like a piece of freshly pooped shit for being the person who introduced Mac to the world of drugs, huh?

Actually, it's not really my fault, it's Nate's Jacob's fault. Empty-headed fucker cheated on her.

I don't know how it's even possible to cheat on someone as hot as Mac, but his dumb ass did it. 

And shit yeah Mac is hot. Not that typical average hot more like - put her in an oversized hoodie and ugly vibram five fingers and she's still hot - hot. 

Describing Mackenna Donahue il isn't easy. Not only because she alternates her hair color between blonde and brown every damn minute but because her personality is so versatile.

Seeing that petit girl without knowing her would make you think she's the good girl next door who often forgets to dress - since Mac loves to dress revealingly - but that bitch has a bad temper and smart mouth.

Yeah, she's kind and supportive and stuff but don't talk shit about her or anyone she loves because miss little muhammad ali will beat your ass with her long acrylic nails. 

But back to trying to pin my guilt on Mac's psychopathic ex-boyfriend. 

She dated Nate when she was 14. He was a year older than her and her first in everything; first boyfriend, first kiss with a man - since her actual first kiss was with me - first blowjob, the first who finger fucked her, the first who give her head and also the first who fucked her. 

To an outside person, the two of them sure looked cute together but as the old saying goes; all that glitters is not gold.

Nate is a manipulative, abusive and toxic bastard.

No wait shit, I take that back since his parents are married.

He's an manipulative,
abusive and toxic asshole. 

Mac told me that he once grabbed her arm so hard that she had bruises from his fingers on her upper arm for days because he saw her talking to a male classmate. It turned out that they only talked about the homework.

What a disturbing fuckwad.

However, Mac defended him and made excuses for his behavior. I think that was the first time I was really mad at Mac. I mean he literally hurt her and she justifies that shit by saying it's her own fault because she doesn't have to talk to other guys in front of Nate's eyes?

Bitch was dumb as fuck.

Or more like truly in love. 

Mac has forgiven him everything.. well almost everything. After she caught him fucking another girl from behind in the men's locker room at school, luckily she ended her relationship with that panty-waisted Scumbucket. 

I was happy about it even if the night of the break up was the beginning of everything. 

"We're done!"

Her own words rang in Mackenna's ears as if someone were shouting this sentence into her ear over and over again. 

She was going to pick up Nate from football practice, it was supposed to be a surprise. Well it was a surprise. A nasty surprise for her. A hurtful one too. Seeing Nate with someone else broke her heart and his half-hearted apologies couldn't change that. 

Their relationship was over. 

Mac arrived at the Bennett's house crying. She hoped Rue would be there, she hasn't texted or called her before since she was too overwhelmed with the fact that her now ex-boyfriend had cheated on her. 

Luckily for the brunette, her best friend was at home. Unsurprisingly, Rue was semi high but Mac didn't care that night. She just wanted to cry in the arms of her favorite person. 

And she cried. Heavily. 

Her light brown eyes were filled with tears and she trembled with every single sob. Rue had never seen the Donahue-Girl like this and it breaks her already damaged heart all over again.

Mac laid with her head in Rue's lap. They stopped speaking after Mac told her what happened. Rue didn't know what to say to make the girl feel better, so she just sat on her bed and stroked Mac's shiny hair.

The 17-year old teenager didn't know if she was a bad person because at that moment she thought Mac was truly gorgeous with her slightly red eyes, pink cheeks and wild hair lying all over her crossed legs. 

There was something sadly aesthetic about it. 

Maybe it was because Rue was high. Maybe it was Mac's scent. She always smelled very fruity. Sometimes like peach like now, sometimes like pear nectar, mango or passion fruit. 

Fuck she smelled like a frigging fruit salad and Rue loved that. 

"I still love him." Mac broke the comfortable silence. Her hoarse voice was rough and unclear. "But I don't want to love him anymore." 

Mac thought that after her father no one could break her heart again. Cohan Donahue left his family for a younger woman when Mackenna was 4 years old. She was daddy little princess so it's not surprising that now she has nothing but hatred for him. The fact that her mother stirred up this hatred didn't make it any better.

But now, after breaking up with Nate, she felt terrible. Like someone had ripped her heart out while she was still alive. 

And then there was this voice in her head that whispered so many questions to her; was it my fault? What could I have done differently?

Am i not enough? 

Mackenna felt like she was grieving not just the past relationship, but the future she thought their would have together.

Her heart tightened painfully as another wave of sadness was hitting her. Her lip began to tremble slightly and her eyes started to get bloodshot.

Make it stop. 

"Rue, it hurts. It hurts like hell. My heart...I can't...I can't breathe. Please make it stop. Please Rue.. please..." –

"Shh, it's okay. It's okay." Rue felt like she's useless and anything but a good friend for Mackenna. Mac's sobs brought tears to her own eyes. It hurt her to see her best friend like this. 

"Please Rue make it stop. MAKE IT STOP!" Mac desperately held her head. She wanted these images to disappear from her memory. "No.. no.. Stop it please." Her voice was just a weak whisper now. 

Rue was overwhelmed with the situation. So overwhelmed that she didn't know what to do other than open the drawer of her nightstand and take out the little bag. Cocaine. Maybe this will help her? Of course it will help her dumbass. 

Rue shifted under Mac's head. "Mac?" Her best friend's tear-stained eyes looked up at her. "Uh, i have something that will help you. But.." –

Before Rue could finish her sentence, Mac had discovered the little packet of white powder in her hand. The Donahue-Girl quickly grabbed the drug, placed it on Rue's night stand and set a line of cocaine with the credit card from her wallet like she had done it a hundred times before. Then she snorted the Florida snow through the nose with a rolled bill. 

Rue felt bad because the sight of Mac doing drugs turns her on. 

That was the day Mac decided never to get emotionally involved with a boy again. 

The day she became 
the unbroken bitch.

Mac sat at her dressing table, adding some finishing touches on her makeup for the party at Mckay's. Some black eyeliner and nude lipstick to match her dark dress. 

Yeah we hate Nate Jacobs but even though we can't stand him.. It's America. And if they were throwing an end of summer party, of course we'd fucking go. 

"Mac Baby, do you think my areolas look weird?" Maddy asked, showing her naked boobs through the phone since she was on a videocall with Mac. 

The Donahue-Girl raised an eyebrow in confusion and looked at the Latina's tits. "Nope, they look absolutely normal." 

Although Maddy had datet Mac's ex-boyfriend, the two girls got along pretty well. After the night of Mac's mental break down, it seems that she suddenly turned off her emotions for this guy. Thanks for the drugs. She didn't care about Nate anymore. She's over him. 

"But, like the edges though?" Maddy asked, once more showing her friends her breasts. 

"Yeah, they looks fine too me." Kat said. 

"Fine, like they're kinda weird or fine, like nobody but me would ever notice what i notice?" 

Mac rolled her eyes while tying her long hair into a high ponytail. 

"Fine, like shut the fuck up, Maddy." BB groaned, taking a hit from her vape. 

The brunette on the other end of the line grinned at BB's words. Maddy glared at her, which only made mac grin even more. The Latin sighted. "I'm disgusting, I'm literally look disgusting." She pulled her pink top back over her tits. 

With a deep breath through her nose, Mac put down the comb and grabs her phone from her dressing table. "Listen Bitch, i don't care what Nate told you but you're beautiful. Your boobs are beautiful, okay? Don't let wack ass people like him fuck with your dope ass energy. You're a bad bitch and you'll killing it tonight, so take a deep breath and remember who the fuck you are!" 

The Perez-Girl was touched by Mac's little pep talk. She didn't know how her and Nate's relationship went since neither of them talked about it, but Maddy would bet he had treated Mac better than he had treated her. Where else does Mac's self-confidence come from?

"You know I love you, right?" Maddy asked the brunette rhetorically.  Mac's answer is a kiss thru the phone camera. 

Kat was laid out on Maddy's bad as she overheard the conversation between the two girls. "Mac's right. You're hot as fuck. Nate's a loser who cares?" 

"EXACTLY!" Mac shoutet happily. 

"He's not a loser, he's a dick." The Latina corrected the girls. 

"All dicks are loosers, duh." Kat answered with an eye roll. 

Mac puts on her glittery Overknees. while she thinks about Kat's Statement. "Well.. at least dicks make my vagina happy." 

Maddy grinned, but before she could say anything, BB spoke up from behind. "Look, bottom line, y'all need to walk into this party, like your pussy cost a million dollars." 

– "You mean we should dress like Mac?" Kat snorted while she checked herself out in the hand mirror. The girls laughed but they all knew the Hernandez-Girl was speaking the truth. Mac was probably the only person on this planet who still managed to look expensively while she was literally naked. 

"Yeah yeah whatever. I have to go, my nail lady is waiting for me. 

See y'all at the party."

Chapter Text

Now there's a couple versions of what happened that night. It all depends on who you ask and to be honest, i'm not always the most reliable narrator. But what i can tell is that almost all eyes were on Mac when she entered the room. Especially Nate's. I couldn't blame him. Mac looked great but what's new. 

He looked even more closely when Mac started dancing with a boy. 
Bitch can dance like J fucking Lo. How she moves her body to the loud music and stretches her hands in the air. Shit is sexy as fuck. 

And it got even hotter as the guy took off his shirt and Mac started running her fingers over his muscular chest. Then she turns around and grinds her ass on his body.

I wish i was that guy and i know a lot of other people feel the same way. 

Nate glared at his first ex-girlfriend while dancing with a girl himself. 

Maddy fucked some guy in the pool and Mac fucked half a guy in the middle of the dance floor. It drove him crazy losing control like that. 

Actually, he didn't care who fucks Maddy, he just cared that others don't saw him as a loser ex from the slut who was fucked in the pool. 

Maddy was only a means to an end.

She's hot, - although not nearly as hot as Mac - when he's up for sex she's there and the bonus is he can make Mac jealous with her. 

Even though she couldn't care less. 

But other than that he doesn't give a single fuck to the Perez-Girl. 

But he cared about Mackenna and he didn't like the fact that she's dancing with a other dick. Nate isn't dumb, he knows the guy wants her pussy. Just like every boy wants a piece of her. 

He angrily grabed the wrist of the girl who's been kissing his torso the whole time and pulled her behind him. 

"Come on, let's fuck."

The blonde-haired girl didn't hesitate and followed the quarterback happily. 

When his ex-girlfriends were having fun, then he will have fun too and fuck some bitch from behind while thinking about Mac. 

Nate is a motherfucking weirdo. 

He made a long mental checklist of the things he liked and disliked about women. He liked tennis skirts and jean cut-offs, but not the kind so short you could see the pockets. He liked ballet flats and heels. He hated sneakers and dress shoes. What was fine with sandals, as long as they were worn with a fresh pedicure. He liked thigh gaps, hated cankles. He liked tan lines, long necks, slender shoulders. He liked good posture and fruit-scented body mist. He liked full lips, and small noses. He liked chokers, but the lacy ones with flower cutouts or delicate patterns. He hated girls who sat like boys, talked like boys, acted like boys. But there was nothing on planet Earth he hated more than body hair.  That's one of the first things he noticed about Maddy. She was basically hairless. But funny thing is, most of it doesn't apply to Mac. 

Mac hate ballet flats but likes sneakers. She don't wear shit like lacy choker or jean cut-off shorts. And while she loves to dress hot and sexy and classy and all, she also loves to wear baggie pants and hoodies. 

Nate likes his women extremely feminine and hates anything even remotely masculine. 

Don't get me wrong Mac is super sensual and shit but like i said; She's a bomb ass bitch and she know how to fight. 

Speaking of that.. 

Rue was sitting on a couch with Fezco. Both high and chilling. While the drug dealer does what he's here for; to sell drugs, Rue looked over the room and watched her best friend dance. With a red cup in her hand, she swung her well-rounded hips with Kat. 

"Yo Rue, why is your ass sitting here and not enjoying the party?" Fez asked out of nowhere. He knew that Rue wasn't quite the dancer, but he didn't understand why the girl spends half of the night on the sofa next to him. Apart from a few exchanges of words they don't talked anyway. 

"I enjoy the view." Rue shrugged indifferently. Her eyes still on Mac. 

Fez followed her gaze and recognized the girl, which struck him as soon as she arrived the party. "Do you know her?" 

– "Huh?" Rue looked at Fez with a raised eyebrow. He gestured with his head in the direction of the dancing girls. "Oh uh.. yeah. She has been my best friend since childhood." She muttered. 

Fez nods his head in understanding.

He taked a brief look at the brunette again then looked back at Rue. He can say that Rue liked the girl. More than she would admit to him. "Then why don't you say 'hi' to her?"

– "She's dancing." Rue answered, looking at Fez as if it's obvious why she didn't say hello to her. 

Truth is Rue was ashamed. She knew that her drug overdose had worried some people in her life. One of these people was Mac. That's one of the reasons she didn't contact her after she got out of rehab. The other reason was that Rue had absolutely no interest in staying clean and she had no idea how Mac will react to that. 

"Not anymore, bruh." 

Fez voice pulled Rue out of her thoughts. She looked up, not knowing what Fez meant until she heard screaming. Her head snapped to the dance floor. She saw Kat and Lexi, both holding back a obviously furious Mac. 

"Oh shit." Without saying anything to Fezco, she gets up from the couch and made her way through the staring crowd. 

"What was that?" Mac asked the blonde girl named Ashley. Her voice full of anger. 

The blonde was standing with her two friends across from Mac. All three laughing at the joke Ashley made about Kat's body shape but looked up when they heard Mac's voice. 

Ashley looked innocently at the Donahue-Girl. "Excuse me?" 

– "You heard me bitch don't act like you didn't heard me." Mac shouted. "And fucking look at me, when i'm talking to you. Daa fuck, you know better than that." She added when the blonde looked at her friends unsure what to say or what do.

"Mac, it's okay." Kat tried to calm down her enraged friend. 

"No it's not. You're my friend and nobody talks to you like that." Mac said to Kat before she turned her attention back to Ashley. "You hear me? She's my friend and anybody they got a problem with her they got a problem with me. Who do you think you are? Who are you calling fat, huh?"

The attention of almost all people in the living room was on the irritated Donahue-Girl. Mac losing her temper was nothing new since she's very protective of her friends but it was always entertaining. 

All Ashley could do was just stand there. She was intimidated because she knew Mac would beat her ass if it weren't for Kat and Lexi. 

"Look at you. You're personality is ugly, you can't fix ugly. She's not fat, she's curvy. Didn't you see how she bounced that booty? You're just a hater, you're literally jealous." 

Ashley spotted Nate leaning against a wall behind Mac. Watching the scene between the two girls. Embarrassed because Mac put her in her place in front of him, she gathered all her courage and took a step towards the brunette. 

"Jealous of what, bitch? Jealous that your pussy is more popular than air-fryer finger food?" 

Both Lexi and Kat reacted quickly to grab Mac's arm before she could lunged at the blonde. "Keep running your mouth and i'm about to throw hands!" Mac warned. 

Ashley grinned devilishly. She didn't even think about giving in now that she had Nate's attention. "Or jealous of your friend's wobbly ass?" 

The crowd went wild when Mac managed to free her hand from Lexi's grip and tried to grab Ashley. Unfortunately, she dodged, so that Mac only hit the blonde's cheek with her acrylic nail. But at least it leaves a bloody wound on Ashley's fair skin. 

The blonde was shocked to see blood on her fingers, coming from the scratch on her cheek "Oh my god you hit me. She hit me. You're crazy!"

– "Come on Shlee." One of her friends slung her arm around Ashley's shoulders and led her away from the dance floor. 

Mac was still trying to break free from the tight grips so she can beat up the bitch who was rude to her friend. Kat and Lexi only managed to hold her because Rue helps them. 

Mac almost accidentally knocked Rue out because she was in a blind fury but the 17-year old Teenager caught her arm on time. "Whoa hey... Mac, it's me. It's Rue." 

Hearing the voice of her best friend broke Mac's anger. Her jaw droped as she looked at the curly haired person. As if to make sure that Rue was really standing in front of her, she took her face between her hands and stroked her soft skin with her thumbs. "You're here." With that she hugged her friend who she had missed so much. 

"Yeah, i'm here." Rue whispered while she enjoys the hug of the brunettes. Her fruity scent of mango mixed with the scent of Alcohol reached her nose. For Rue it smelled a bit like home. 

Mac gently slipped out of Rue's arms. "Are you good. You look good. How long have you been back? You should have called me." 

"Yeah uh, i'm good." Rue smiled slightly, ignoring the warm feeling in her gut at Mac's compliment. 

"Yeah?" 

– "Yeah." 

Once again Mac hugged her best friend tightly. "God i missed you so much." 

Rue was grateful that Mac didn't say anything like 'I was worried.' or 'Why would you do something like this?' It would only make her feel more guilty. 

Breaking away from Rue a second time, she searched the room full of people for Maddy. 

"Have you seen Maddy?" She asked Rue when she couldn't find the Latina. "I need some shit for.." When her gaze fell on Rue her light brown eyes widened. Mac realized that she shouldn't talk to Rue about drugs since she's just back from rehab. "Shit, i'm sorry Rue. I just... you know what? Forget it, let's just.." –

"Nah, I got you. I have a friend over there. He sure has what you need." Rue uttered. She knew exactly what Mac wanted and even though she knew how wrong it was to introduce her to her drug dealer, she did it anyway. 

So far, the brunette had always gotten her drugs from Rue or Maddy. It was easy that way. Rue didn't want Mac to know where they got the drugs from, afraid Mac wouldn't need her anymore. A stupid thought, but Rue couldn't help herself. 

"Are you sure?" The Donahue-Girl looked appraisingly at Rue. When she saw her best friend's slightly red eyes, she realized why Rue had no problem introducing - her so called - friend to her. Rue was high. The brunette sighed internally but said nothing. She djdn't want to blame Rue, knowing that it won't do any good anyway. 

"Yeah, come on." 

Together they walked to the couch on which Fez was still sitting, selling some pills to some giggling girls. 

"Yo uh, Fez this is Mac, Mac this is Fezco." After the short introduction, Rue sat down on the couch. If she hadn't been so high, she might have noticed the way the two looked at each other. 

"Hey." Mac smiled sweetly before she sat down between Rue and Fezco. 

"Wassup, you good? I see ya little fight over there. Shit escalated quickly." Fez said amused. 

Mac looked at her long pink acrylic nails to make sure everything was still fine with them. "Ya, i have a short temper, i guess, so things like that can happen." 

She didn't care that everyone at the party saw this argument. It wasn't the first time and with so many stupid people in this world it certainly wasn't the last time. 

Fez nods his head in understanding. "Good to know." In a unobtrusive way he looked at the side profile of the brunette. Fuck, lil firecracker is even hotter up close. He thought. Now that he was sitting next to her he could see her nose ring and the little glitter rhinestones on her eyes. Her full lips were even juicier than he thought they would be. And shit, her scent was mesmerizing. He looked from Mac to Rue and found that she looked at the brunette in a similar way. He didn't have the time to think about what it could mean, because Mac's suddenly looked up from her nails. 

"So,.. Rue said you have some fun stuff?" Mac asked with a mischievous smile. 

"Uh yeah, you want some weed?" 

Mac snorted a little offendet. What is she? A Stoner? Did she look like one? Yes, she smokes a joint from time to time, but can you tell that by looking at her or why did he immediately assume that she wanted to buy weed? She hoped not. 

"Weed's cute and all.." With a seductive look Mac put her hand on Fezco's denim covered knee before looking into his eyes. "But i'm more a snowblower." 

Fezco's eyebrows shot up. He hadn't expected that. "Damn Ma, you snort and shit?" 

The brunette tilted her head at that question. "Is there a problem? Like, since when do drug dealers care about their customers?" 

Since they're smoking hot. 

Fez cleard his throat, looking at the hand on his leg - but ignoring the slight twitch in his croutch - and then back at the girl. "Nah, i don't have a Problem, just wondering. You're tiny and shit. Coke is no funny business, you feel me?" 

Normally he would just give any willing customer what he wanted, but he didn't have a good feeling about Mac. Weed? No big deal, but coke? He didn't want her doing stuff like that. 

The brunette looked at Fez as if to say 'are you nuts?' but decided to pretend she didn't hear all that words. 

"Yeeaaah.. so do you have coke for me?" 

Not really. 

Fez sighted softly, but reached into his pocket and pulled out a small packet of white powder. He's a drug dealer after all. 

Mac took her hand off Fezco's leg and grabed the drug from his large hand. "What do i owe you? Ah you know what. Here." She pulled a $100 bill out of her bra and handed it to Fez. "Should be enough, right?" 

Unlike Fez, Rue was not at all surprised that the brunette was carrying so much money. Her Mom was rich as fuck. She's an attorney for popular people, plus Mac's dad paid an outrageous amount of child support to her, so $100 was nothing in Mac's world. 

"Nah ma, that's too much.." –

"No, it's cool. Keep it." Mac assured him while she skilfully opend the small packet and dipped her long pink nail inside. Then she brought her index finger to her nose and snorted the white powder deeply. 

"Shit ma, you doing this here?" Fez asked unnecessarily since she already did. He almost couldn't believe it. She's in a room full of people taking coke like it's candy and not an illegal drug. But then again, the majority of teenagers here took shit like this. 

Mac half sprawled on the couch as the cocaine took effect. Her eyes on Fez. Man, he's fine. She thought dreamily. 

Mac didn't really have a type of guy's. Since she only had sex with them, she didn't care about the characteristics of a boy. But also physically she didn't really have a type of guy's. She - or rather; her pussy - either found a boy sexually attractive or she didn't. 

Of course she had things that attracts her the most, like dimples or facial hair, but even that wasn't something a boy needed to have for her to find him attractive and have sex with him as a result. 

But two things a boy always had to be for her; older and taller than her.

She was 16 years old at the time, so i get why she didn't want to sleep with anyone younger than her since boys that age are immature like hell. 

And like many girls, she wanted to feel like a boy can protect her, even if the relationships Mac has are purely sexual. 

She's 5'1 so it's not really hard for a boy to be taller than her. 

Hell, I am taller than her. 

And so is Nate Jacob's. 

And Fez. 

"Shit I really want to kiss you right now." Mag giggled. Her light brown eyes still on the man next to her. 

Rue rolled her eyes. "Shuddup Mac, you're high." She would never admit it out loud, but she didn't like the idea of Mac kissing Fez. 

Or Mac kissing anybody. 

Fez on the other hand would have liked it if he didn't know Rue was right. Little girl is on cocaine, she'd kiss anyone right now. 

As the brunette put her hand on his thigh again, he put his own hand on hers to stop her from getting any stupid ideas like undoing his belt or putting her hand on his cock or something. 

"I'm not that high, Kangarue." Mac laughed at her pun but kept her attention on Fezco. "You're dressed like a Streetwear OG. Shit turns me on." 

That was the moment i wished i 
had never introduced Mac to Fez. 

Sometimes this shit get annoying


Fez knew that was wrong, but he couldn't help when his cock twitched happily at the little brunette's words. 

Mac really wanted to kiss the drug dealer, so she leaned in. 

Neither of them noticed Rue's skeptical look as she followed the scenario. 

When Mac's nose brushed the skin of Fezco's cheek, he gently grabbed her shoulder and pushed her away from him. "Don't do this, ma.We don't want you to regret it, do we?"

– "Won't you kiss me?" She looked at him with big eyes and pouty lips. 

Course I do. But i fucking can't. 

He was spared having to come up with an excuse because Mac's attention was suddenly drawn to the screams coming from a other room. Without saying a word, she got up from the couch and walked towards the kitchen. 

"Whoa hey hey.. Mac.." Rue, who also recognized the voice of the man screaming, knew this wouldn't end well, so she tried to grab Mac's wrist. The brunette just shooked Rue's Hand off. Fez, who didn't knew what was going on, looked back and forth between the two girls in confusion but shrugged it off when Rue also got up and followed the brunette. 

When two guys came to him who want to buy Molly, he got distracted anyway. 

"...Does anybody know who the fuck Jules is? At all. You, do you know who the fuck Jules is? So, who are you?" Nat yelled for everyone to hear. 

"I'm just minding my own business. I'm not trying to start anything." The frightened girl responded. 

Nate moved menacingly closer to her face. "Well, no, you're not. Nobody that looks like you is minding their own business. i know what you are. Yeah. Yeah, i see you. So what do you want? You want some, some attention? 'Cause i'll give you some fucking attention. Yo, is anybody here friends with Jules? Anybody? Does anybody know who the fuck this bitch is? Somebody better speaks up, or this bitch is gonna get fucked up." 

– "She's my friend, so back the fuck off, asshole." Mac said while she put her hand on his bare chest and pushed him away from the blonde girl. 

Mac had no idea who Jules was, but she won't just stand there an watch how her stupid ex-boyfriend create a big scene at the innocent girl's expense. 

"Oh so now you wanna talk Mac, huh? Now you wanna fucking talk?" The Jacob's-boy fleered. 

"No, i want you to leave Jules alone. Hey, you okay?" She removed her hand from Nate's body and turned away from him to focus on the blonde.

Jules nods her head confused and grateful at the same time. She didn't know Mac either. So she had no idea why the girl was helping her while everyone else just stood there in silence and watched the tall guy yelling at her. 

Nate didn't like that Mac turned away from him, so he pulled her back towards him by her wrist. A disgusted look on his face when he looked Mac up and down. 

"You look like a whore." 

–  "That's okay Natty-boy, i've been called worse things by better people." She fake smiled. 

"Oh really, like what?" 

– "Your girlfriend."

Nate's anger was literally written all over his face. His nostrils flared and his eyes narrowed as he leanded down to the petit girl. "You didn't mind being my girlfriend when i had my head between your thighs." He sneered while his grip on Mac's wrist becomes so tight that a whimper escaped her lips. 

When Jules heard that, she quickly grabbed a knife from the kitchen counter, shoving it in Nates face. 

"Don't fucking touch her." The blonde barked. 

Nate let go of his ex-girlfriend so that she could step aside, startled by this turn. 

"Yo, put the fucking knife down." The star quarterback demanded but the blonde didn't listen to him. 

"YOU WANNA FUCKING HURT HER? OR ME?" 

– "No, i was fucking kidding." Nate lied, hoping to defuse the situation. 

"WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?" Jules pointed the Weapon at Nate. 

"Put the fucking knive down, okay. I was A joke It was a.. Mac Baby tell her it was just a fucking joke." The Jacob's-boy looked at the brunette but she ignored her ex-boyfriend's pleading and looked at her acrylic nails as if they were the most amazing thing in the world. 

"You have no fucking idea. See?" Jules hissed, slicing the inside of her forearm with the blade. 

"You're psycho!" Nate shriked. 

"I'm fucking invincible." The blonde yelled when she smeared the blood from her wound on his naked upper body. 

Mac had no fucking idea what Jules was saying but watched the scenario in front of her like she was watching a horror movie. Her ex-boyfriend was the victim - the crazy girl was... well, she was the crazy girl. Mac kinda enjoyed it. 

"You're a fucking freak. What the fuck?" 

Jules put the knife aside and walked backwards toward the kitchen exit. "By the way, i'm Jules. I just moved here." She said to everyone before walking out of the room. 

"Damn, that was crazy." Mac muttered to herself. 

Rue, who watched the whole thing from the doorframe, walks towards her best friend and gently grabs her upper arm to get her attention.

"Come on, we go home." She said before exchanging a blank look with Nate. 

Mac furrowed her eyebrows - not realizing what just happened seconds ago - but followed Rue.

Chapter Text


I ended spend the night with Jules's after the party. 

Mac and I met her in front of McKay's and after she thanked Mac she helped me with her. I don't know what kind of coke she took, but whatever it was, it must have been really good 'cause her mood was euphoric. 

Whatever.

Jules and i brought her sorry ass home 'cause even though Mac was convinced she could still drive, i wouldn't let her 'cause bitch was higher than the fucking Mount Everest.

After that we went to Jules house. I patched Jules' arm, and then we got high together. We laid side by side on her bed and stared at the ceiling. Lofi music plays softly in the background, Led lights illuminated the room.

It could have been nice if the blonde hadn't raved about Mac half the time.

I love Mac and all but sometimes i hated how she captivated everyone without even trying.

"Did you see how she faced that guy? Wait, what was his name again?" Jules asked excitedly.

"Nate." Rue murmured while wishing  the blonde would finally shut up about the Mac-and-Nate-incident.

"Oh right, asshole would suit him better." Jules mused before she continued her rambling "But it was so cool when Mac put him in his place. Can't believe they dated. I mean Nate looks good- purely optical but he's definitely out of Mac's league. She's so.. so.. sexy."

Rue rolled her eyes in annoyance. Yeah fuck, those were exactly her thoughts about her best friend and that's why she didn't want to hear those words from another person. Especially not from Jules. Rue kinda liked the blonde. She liked how she dressed and she liked her voice.

Rue knew Mac would never return her feelings, even if the brunette didn't identify herself as 100% straight since she wasn't a big fan of putting a label on sexuality. Besides, Mac had little make out session's with girls - including Rue - before and after she dated Nate. But none of that would change the fact that Mac will never have romantic feelings for Rue.

The only consolation is that Rue also knew that her best friend would never have romantic feelings for anyone. She don't do relationships.

Unfortunately, Rue's joy about that thought didn't last very long.

The sound of a buzzing phone interrupted Jules from her sentence about how she would like to have a nose piercing like Mac, but her father would kill her if she came home with that kind of piercing.

Rue picked up her phone from the mattress beside her and read through the text message she'd received.

Mac' n cheese 💅🏻💞

I knew that wasn't the real reason Mac wanted his number the same night she met Fez and, oh well, wanted to kiss him.

But what should i tell her?

That i don't want her to have his number 'cause i know he's going to be her new booty call and that just the thought of the two sleeping together makes me sick?

I mean that would have been t he tr uth but this shit screams jealousy.

So i did what i had to do to not seem like a crazy ass bitchhead.

TY FAV

BebeeRue 🌳💞
Hoodnight

Needless to say i didn't sleep well that night since Jules only talked about Mac and said Mac asked for Fez's number to very likely have sex with him.

Ugh.

At the same time, Mac lay in her king-size bed, - freshly showered and dressed in her cow pajamas - debating whether to text Fezco or leave it until tomorrow. She don't know exactly why, but somehow she can't get the guy with the short hair and blue eyes out of her mind.

He's hot yeah... but so are many people. There's more to fez than just good looks. Mac felt like she liked him immediately. Sitting next to him made her feel comfortable and safe - not that she needed protection, but she liked the feeling of it. And his voice.. His voice was pleasant as fuck. Just thinking about how he spoke to her gave her goosebumps.

Mac wasn't lying when she said she wanted to kiss him.

She just didn't know if it was because she was sexually attracted to him or because she really wanted to know what it would feel like.

The brunette looked at her digital alarm clock display. It's after 2 in the morning. Maybe he's asleep? or maybe he found someone to hook up with... Ew. Please no.

Somehow the thought of it frustrates her.

Okay Mackenna, stop this shit right now, like for real. I met this guy at a party and exchanged maybe 5 full sentences with him. What's wrong with me? Am I that horny? Or...

Mac huffed in defeat. "Fuck off." She mumured to herself. Then she grabbed her iPhone, which she had previously placed on her bedside table, and scrolled through her contact list.

Fez had just said goodnight to Ash as the little kid went to bed after the movie they watched together when his phone buzzed on the coffee table. He rubbed his face tiredly before checking who was texting him at this unholy hour. 

+1 209 359 254***
Hey, it's Mac, i asked Rue for
your number, hope that's
cool for u.

His eyebrows furrowed. Why would she want his number? For drugs, bruh. What else would she want youry number for?

Fez
yeah no biggie

After adding the girl to his new contacts, he wanted to put the phone away but the buzzing from it stopped him.

Mac
Ok good (:

WYD?

A little smirk grows on Fez's face as he read the message. Is lil one trying to start a convo with me?

Fez
just watched a
movie with my bro

WBU?

Mac
Rue and the crazy girl from
the party, Jules, i guess, took me
home and then i took a shower, now i'm lying in my bed so
nothing special

U have a bro? That's cool  (:

Fez
The girl who cut her own arm?
shit yeah i heard about her.
i also heard about a girl who
beat nate jacob's ass with just
her words, Playboy's hella mad

Yeah, do u have any sibs?

Mac was also looking at her phone screen with a smile on her lips as she types reply. The brunette really appreciated that Fez - unlike other dudes she's texted before - didn't respond with 'what are you wearing?' when she said she's in her bed. She hated that type of guy's.

It's so original.

It's not that Mac didn't like dirty talk and all -  she did but only with selected people and not with random dudes... or chicks.

The Donahue-Girl couldn't help but think that Rue's drug dealer is really really cute because he didn't asked her for nudes.

She also had to giggle at Fez's story about her ex-boyfriend being pretty angry because of her.

Motherfucker deserved it .

Mac
oopsie 😊
U call him playboy?
Is he a friend of yours
or something?

And uh no, i'm an only child.

Fez frowned at her question about Nate. Was she interested in him? He hoped not, he ain't a fucking Cupid or some shit. He texted her back while the intro to a new movie was playing on the TV in the background.

Fez
Nah just a Kid who
buys from me.

What do u call him?

Ah, now she knows where Nate got his drugs from. He'd been on that shit since they were a couple, way before she took coke herself.

Mac
Since he's my last
year's model i've called
him by every possible insult

Fez
Shit ma u've dated him?

Mac
Shame on me

but w/e what do u
do for living beside
ur little illicit activity?

Fez was never the biggest fan of texting, but at that moment he felt comfortable. He felt like he had known that litlle spitfire for ages when in reality he had just met her that night. He's pleased that she didn't just see him as the drug dealer, but that she assumes he's doing something else on the side. 

Relaxed, he put his legs on the coffee table while leaning back in the soft cushions, his phone in hand he typed an answer.

Fez
I run a grocery store

Mac
rly????
how old are u?

Unlike Fez, Mac had always  enjoyed texting, especially with her girls. She just can't remember the last time she had a conversation with a boy that wasn't about cock and ass fucking, so that was a nice change.

Fez
19, u?

Mac
sweet 16, but only a few more weeks, then i'll be a year older

Damn, she's young, Fez thought as he lit a joint. But then again, when she turns 17 in a few weeks, she won't be much younger than Rue.

Fez
Yeah make sense

Mac
So, where is ur store?

Mac and Faz didn't really
text much more that night, but
they didn't have to 'cause they
saw each other just a day later.

Fezco sat on the white chair in front of his store, smoking a freshly rolled joint when suddenly a rather conspicuous car pulled into the parking lot. A fucking pink range rover, gleaming in the midday sun, pulled up in front of him.

With a suspicious expression on his face, he took a hit of his doobie and waited to see who was going to get out of the bitch cart.

His surprise that it was Mac who got out of the car was indescribable.
He had expected that he would soon have to deal with a Paris Hilton clone or a middle aged woman in a mid-life crisis but to his relief it was just Mac.

With an amused smile, he rose from his chair and approached the girl.

She looked different, but a good different.

Unlike at the party, Mac wasn't wearing a short dress and high heels, but a green sweater with matching shorts and white sneakers. Her hair lay open in slight waves over her shoulders, only a back section was loosely held together with a small hair clip. She was also wearing less make-up than the night before. Because of her eyelash extensions, she only needed to fill in her eyebrows and put on some lip gloss.

Fez liked the way she looked this day. He liked what he saw at the party as well, but he liked it more when girls wore casual clothes like oversized hoodies or baggie jeans and shit. But truth be told, Mac would probably look good in any-fucking-thing.

"Shit ma, this your car?" Fezco asked, still amazed at the car parked in front of his shop.

Fuck the car wasn't shiny, it was covered in glitter from top to bottom. What a chick car.

Mac looked from her vehicle to the man in front of her, grinning at his astonished expression. "Yeah, it was a gift from my mom. It's a special production."

– "I see." Fez answered with a nod as he took another hit of his joint.

The brunette watched how a cloud of white smoke left his mouth and wished she had something to get high too but, like really high. Mac didn't want to make Fez feel like she just came here for drugs, but after an awkward run-in with her mother this morning, she needed something to quiet her thoughts about it.

"Do you have something else?" She asked him with a playful smile.

Just like yesterday at the party, he would have preferred to deny her anything harder than weed but fuck, that was his job.

"Nah, just dope." Just as he was about to offer her the weed, he sees a white pickup truck in the distance.

Fez quickly looked back at Mac. "But uh Ashtray is in the back." With his thumb he pointed to his shop behind him. "He has something there."

Mac gave him a lopsided grin. "Okay, uhm... are you coming with me or..." –

"I'll be right with you ma,... just need to do sum business." He explained to the brunette while putting a hand in the pocket of his baggy jeans.

Mac got the hint. She nodded, smiling and then walked towards the store in front of her.

As Fez told her, she walked down the aisle to the freezer and opened the door.

The brunette froze as a little boy looked up at her from his Tupperware box he was eating Lucky Charms.

While her eyes roamed the room she slowly walked towards the boy

She approached the boy with a cute smile. "Uh hey..." –

"Who the Fuck are you and what do you want here?" With a blank face, the boy set his cereal aside as he waited for an answer.

His harsh tone in his voice confused Mac, but she stayed calm and kept smiling. "Name's Mac. Fez told me to come over here. I'm looking for Ashtray. Your father, i guess?"

The boy snorted. "Nah Baby, i'm Ashtray."

–"You're Ashtray? You're look like a 10 year's old boy."

"And you look like baby bop, whats your point, man?"

Mac had to grin at the 'Barney and Friends' reference and what can she say, he's not wrong since her outfit is almost completely green.

Still surprised that a pre-teen has face tattoos and is apparently Fezco's business partner, a sudden thought occured to her. "Wait, You're Fez's brother, aren't you?"

Ashtray looked the girl up and down skeptically before deciding to ignore her question and ask one himself. "He told you to come here?"

Fez had never sent anyone to the back except for Rue. If there was a customer, Fez always picked up the drugs from him and handed them to the customer unobtrusively in front of the store.

You don't let a customer in the bank to the money, you bring the money to the customer. That was the rule.

"Yeah, he said you got what i want." With the same playful grin she gave  Fez before. She wasn't offended that he didn't answer her ququestion, he doesn't know her after all. Basically she could be a cop or something.

Ashtray raised an eyebrow. "Ah and what is that?"

– "Coke."

Surprised, he raised the other eyebrow.

Mac sighed. "What? Why are you looking like that? You have the same look as Fez yesterday when i asked him for some snow."

"Easy here. I'm not responsible for what my face does when you talk." Ashtray scoffed as he turns to the microwave.

Mac let her eyes roam around her surroundings. It looked like a normal storage room - here and there are shelves with different stuff, chests of drawers stand against the walls right and left and in front of her is a large wooden table - but the fact that Ashtray took a bowl with a bag full of drugs out of the microwave turned the supposed storage room into a back room where drug deals were done.

"It's gonna cost you sixty." Ashtray said as he threw the small packet with the white powder on the table.

Mac pulls a $100 bill from the waistband of her shorts and hands it to the boy. " The rest's for you." She grabbed the little packet "Uh, can i take a line here?"

Ashtray put the money away, a satisfied smile on his face. Then he looked at the brunette while he took his bowl with the cereal and continued eating. "But only 'cause the money was good."

With a smile she opened the small package and layed down the cocaine on the table. "Do you have a credit card or something?"

– "You are very unprepared, what do you want from me next? Your money back so you can snort that shit?" He groaned but handed her a business card to some car agency.

Mac giggled. "No, but thanks." With these words she pulled a $100 bill out of her bra this time. After she lined up the cocaine in an accurate way, she pinched her one nostril closed and inserting the dollar bill to the other. Mac sniffed the line and moaned as she opened her eyes. "Fuck, this is good stuff." She giggled again.

While Mac pursued her little addiction in the store, Fez waited outside for his customer to reach him. When the pickup truck pulled up next to him, Nate got out and greeted him with a handshake, but in reality they exchanged drugs for money.

As if he hadn't already seen from afar that his ex-girlfriend's car was parked here, the Jacob's-Boy let his eyes wander around the area. "So uh, what's my girl doing here?" He asked, looking back to Fez.

Fezco took one last drag on his joint before tossing it to the ground. "I have no idea what you're talking about, bruh."

Nate scoffed. "Course not." He glanced at the man in front of him, before walking past him towards the store's entrance.

Fez wanted to go after him, knowing full well that Nate was talking about Mac when he was asking for 'his girl', but another teenager walked up to him, stopping him from doing so.

Mac closed the freezer door behind her and happily walked back down the aisle she had come from earlier. 

When the brunette heard footsteps she stopped singing and looked up. She thought it was Fezco, but when she saw Nate her face twisted into an annoyed expression. She quickly wiped her nose to make sure there was no residue of the coke left there.

Nate noticed that Mac clenched one of her hands into a fist as he stopped her from walking past him. "What are you doing here?"

He asked, tilting his head and trying to make eye contact with his ex girlfriend but she avoided him.

"Not that it's any of your business but i'm shopping groceries. It's a grocery store, right?" Mac glanced at the shelf next to her and saw a can of corn which she grabbed. "Oh that's exactly what i wanted. Now if you'll excuse me, i have to pay these yellow things."

He quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back towards him, causing Mac to open her fist and reveal the small package of drugs in her hand.

Nate narrowed his eyes. "So you found the local drug dealer."

The brunette tore herself away from him and gave him a superior look. "Yeah and now i know why you never wanted me to be there when you bought drugs 'cause he's a hell of a guy."

His ex-girlfriend's words made his blood boil, but he tried not to show it. "Oh yeah? Do you suck his cock for this shit?" Nate sneered, nodding to the cocaine in her hand.

Mac cocked her head. "You know what's literally super funny? That you always try to make me look like a whore even though it was you who cheated on me."

Nate takes another step towards Mac. Her breathing hitched as he placed his hand on her cheek and gently brushed his thumb across her lips. She looked up to him with wide eyes.

"Stop fighting baby, i already told you that was a mistake." He leaned in closer. So close that Mac felt his warm breath on her skin as he whispered his next words as if they were meant to be a threat to her. "We both know that we belong together."

The brunette tried to turn her head away, but Nate is stronger than her and holds it in place, causing her to whimper.

"Hey asshole, let her go and get your ass outta here!" Someone shouted.

Nate looked behind his ex girlfriend and saw Ashtray standing there. He wanted to laugh at the little boy trying to tell him what to do, but then he saw the hammer in his hand and let go of Mac. Once again he looked at her meaningfully. "I see you at school." With that, he left the store.

As he walked past Fez, who's just entering the store, he gave him a hard look.

This fucker better not fuck his girl.

Mac took a deep breath before turning to Ashtray. She wasn't scared of nate, but she just couldn't take it when he touched her. "Thank you." She said with a smile.

"Yeah yeah it's okay, he's a fucker anyway." He dismissed it as if it wasn't a big deal. But for Mac it was. He didn't need to intervene, but he did and she appreciated it.

"Hey, you okay, ma?" Fez asked as he approached Mac, automatically placing his hand on her lower back.

Both looked at him. While Ashtray looked at him thoughtfully, Mac gave him a grateful look. She thought it was cute that he was obviously worried about her.

"Yeah, um..." She glanced down at the can of corn in her hand and put it back on the shelf before glancing back and forth between the two boys. "How about we watch a movie together when you guys are done here?"

Mac just wanted to forget about the event with her ex, and if that means she can spend time with her new friends, then that's a bonus.

Chapter Text


Mac spent the entire weekend at Fezco's . She didn't sleep there but drove back to her house Saturday night after the movie she watched with the boys.

Much to my surprise, Mac and Fez didn't have sex. I can't remember the last time Mac talked to a guy and didn't end up in bed with him afterwards. Or on a washing machine. Or in a stall in the school toilet.

Shit's disgusting but whatever.

Mac liked sex and she made no secret of it . She didn't play with people's feelings, she told the guys she want to sleep with straight out that there's nothing more than just sex. No feelings and shit.

To Mac, guys were only good for making her orgasm. But she got along pretty well with Fez even without them fucking, which doesn't mean they didn't want to .

They laughed at the same brazen silliness in the movie 'Hot Rod', they could talk about all sorts of topics and they listened to each other.

But what was most important to Fez was that Mac got along with Ashtray, even though the kid would never admit that he already liked Mac. He thought it was pretty cool that she never took his taunts personally and even came back with funny answers.

Both feel comfortable around Mac's. So comfortable that Fez told her about his grandmother and the story of how he ended up dropping out of school to run the store and the drug business.

I get it .

Mac is hella sweet and all when she likes someone and she has a quality that makes you feel like you can tell her your soul and shit.

She's very caring and you got her back in every crappy situation. I swear she would have pissed in a tylenol bottle for the drug test my mother occasionally asked me to do if she wasn't on fucking cocaine so often herself .

But you only get all that from
her if she likes you. If not, well... you know.

It's like everyone wants to be friends with her, but she doesn't want everyone to be her friend.

She's not a bully or some shit, she just puts those who deserve it in their place, but just because she's relatively friendly doesn't mean you're automatically friends with her.

But yeah no sex on saturday.

"Are you going out?"

Mac rolled her eyes in annoyance at her mother's question. Isn't it obvious? She let go of the doorknob and turned to the blonde woman.

Ophelia Donahue was standing in the entryway in one of her expensive dressing gowns. With folded arms she looked at her daughter waiting for an answer.

"Yeah. I'm going to Kat's." She said, adjusting her white purse to her arm.

"Now? Mackenna, tomorrow is school. Shouldn't you go to bed early?"

Mac sighed internally. That's exactly why Mac wanted to avoid meeting her mother before she leaved the house. She would have texted her later and excused her secret disappearance by saying that she didn't want to disturb her with her paperwork, then her mother wouldn't have been able to lecture her about how important good sleep is for school. But here she was.

"Yeah Mom, I know I'll try not to be late." Mac said, giving her mother a fake smile. She really didn't feel like having a conversation with her mother about her sleep schedule at that moment.

Again Mac wanted to open the door, but Ophelia stopped her again. "Can't you at least put some pants on, darling? What should the people in the neighborhood think?" The blond woman shakes her head morosely.

Mac wore a multicolored, oversized t-shirt, mid-calf tennis socks with two pastel purple stripes, and her white Buffalo's with matching color accents. The t-shirt hit her mid-thigh, so pants weren't necessary.

"Mom, that's how you wear it nowadays, and besides, it's like 95°F outside."

Ophelia raised one of her perfectly groomed eyebrows. "That's how you wear it nowadays? When you where with Nathaniel, you never wore anything like that."

Yeah, 'cause Nathaniel wouldn't have liked it if i went out in such outfits. Mac thought sacartically.

He hadn't forbidden Mac from wearing revealing outfits, but he had always made her feel like a slut who was easy to get if she even showed a little skin.

Mac wanted to please him - and only him - so she dressed as he pleased.

She didn't realize until later that it was basically the same as if he had forbidden her to wear those clothes, the only difference was that he made her feel like she was making her own decision, when in fact that decision was being influenced by him.

This was their relationship; characterized by mind games and manipulation.

Instead of voicing her thoughts, she ignored her mother's statement because she was even less interested in talking about her ex-boyfriend than she was about her sleep schedule.

"Bye Mom." With that she opened the door and left the house.

When she got to her car, she sat in the driver's seat and placed her purse on the passenger side before starting the car. Immediately the engine sounded while at the same time the song 'Crazy in love' sounded loud from the car radio.

Singing along to the lyrics to the Beyoncé song, mac drives from the driveway towards the supermarket.

––

At the same time, Fezco and Ashtray were sitting in their living room, counting money. A sitcom was playing quietly in the background but neither of them paid any attention to how a young woman in her early 30s with her three male roommates tries to deal with their relationship problems and career decisions.

It was only when they heard loud music outside that they looked up from the bills in their hands and looked at each other.

With a smirk Fez put the stack of money he just counted on the table in front of him and got up from the couch. "Keep counting kid, i'll open the door."

– "Course you do." Annoyed and with a sigh Ashtray leaned back on the cushions and added up the damn bills in his hands.

Fez opened the door even before there was a knock, causing Mac to jump and almost drop the grocery bag, she was carrying, on the floor.

"Oh shit, sorry Ma. Lemme help ya."

Like a gentleman, he took the full bag from the hands of the brunette and walked in the direction of the living room. She took off her shoes and put them neatly by the door before following him.

As he put the brown bag down on the couch he saw various groceries but had no idea what she was going to do with them.

"Thanks." She smiled at Fezco, then she turned to be boy who was sitting in the armchair. "Hey Ash, what's up?"

Ashtray wanted to ask her what she meant by that. 'Whats up? He's counting shit money, that's 'what's up', but when he looked up he just looked at her in mock disgust. "Bitch what are you wearing? Yesterday baby bop, today Lil Pump? Shit's ugly."

- "What do you mean Lil Pump, if anything i'm ASAP Rocky, dude's dating Rihanna." Mac said said, flipping her curls back over her shoulder in fake arrogance. Mac knows he's just teasing her and is happy to join in.

"I'm surprised you even know him, even though you only listen to shitty music." Ashtray scoffed, while placing the money in his hand on the coffee table.

Mac snorted, offended by his words. She knew he meant the music that was playing out of her car earlier. Just before she arrived at Fez's apartment, the song 'Let me blow ya mind' by Eve feat. Gwen Stefanie started playing. An unwritten rule said that a good song has to be heard to the end before you get out of the car, so she finished the song and held a small concert inside her Range Rover.

"You only think that because you were a fetus when this music was made." Mac said, a superior smile smeared across her face.

"Bitch, shuddup, you are only two years older than me."

– "Whatever." The brunette waved him off.

What should she do, she's a sucker for music from the early 2000s.

Fezco, who was watching the two in amusement, while lighting up a joint, pointed to the grocery bag. "What's this, ma?" He asked.

"Huh?" Mac turned her head to Fez, brows furrowed. When she realized what he meant, she smiled and reaches for the bag. "I thought since we ordered food yesterday, i'll cook us something fresh today." With that, she pulled cauliflower out of the bag and happily waved the vegetables back and forth. "I was thinking of cauliflower cheese. It's simple but delicious."

– "Doesn't sound delicious." Ashtray answered, ignoring his older brother's warning look. Even though Fez knew Ashtray wasn't as serious as it sounded, he thought he could be nicer if Mac offered to cook for the two of them. He was glad that Mac took Ashtray's taunts with humor.

The brunette grinned. "Just wait and see, you'll love it." She lifted the grocery bag in her arms and left the living room.

Fez quickly stubbed out his joint in the ashtray. "Wait, i'll help you cook."

– "No it's fine, keep doing whatever you're doing here, i'll find my way." Before he could protest, the girl had disappeared into the kitchen.

Sighing, Fez sat down on the sofa and ran a hand over his shaved head. Looking up, he met Ash's skeptical gaze.

"What?" Fez asked slightly annoyed.

The younger boy shook his head, amused by his brother's behavior. "You can't even cook."

You might think the same shit about Mac when you see her with her ass long nails and all but she cooked really well. She taught herself to cook and bake with the help of the house manager when she was fucking 10 years old.

When i was 9 years old i played basketball with my father or hide and seek with my mother and sister.
Shit's fun.

Mac had none of it . Well, she had a mother who was physically present, but she didn't care for her daughter in the way Mac's younger version would have wished . This was due to the middle-aged woman's job and lifestyle.

Ophelia Donahue wasn't a woman who cooked or baked herself . She arranged someone for this or
went to an expensive restaurants. Something Mac never wanted.
Of course she also liked to go out to eat, but arranging someone to cook for her was never an option for her. She wanted to be independent and be able to take care of herself or those she liked . She wanted to be different from her mother.

I also think mac loved all that domestic shit 'cause she never
had it herself .

It didn't take long for the mouth-watering smell of cauliflower and cheese to fill the apartment.

Fez and Ashtray meanwhile finished counting money while Mac was busy in the kitchen. The younger one scrolled through his phone while Fez tried to focus on another episode of 'ugly americans'.

Ash was right, he couldn't cook, at least not in a way that you could eat his meal without the risk of getting food poisoning, but that wouldn't have stopped him from helping Mac if she'd let him.

"Oh shit!"

Mac's loud swearing caused the two boys to look at each other before Fez quickly rosed from the couch.

On the way to the kitchen, various scenes raced through his head; Did she cut her finger while chopping vegetables? Did she burn herself with boiling water?

When he arrived the kitchen none of those horror scenes were happened. Mac leaned against the kitchen counter, phone in hand and absolutely unharmed. She was so engrossed in what she was seeing on the screen that she didn't even notice Fez approaching her.

"You good, ma?" He asked the girl. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Ash, who must have followed him because he was suddenly leaning against the door frame.

The brunette looked up, still that stunned expression on her face. "It's unbelievable." She murmured more to herself than to him, she seems absent.

Frown lines formed on Fezco's forehead. "Did something happen?"

As if Mac has awakened from a trance, she looked at Fez. "Kylie Jenner made fun of Selena Gomez." She gasped, typing so wildly on her phone that the clicking of her long acrylic nails could be heard loudly. "She made fun of her eyebrows. What is the bitch talking about, Selena's eyebrows are always on fleek." She added angrily.

Fez and Ashtray looked at each other questioningly, neither of them knows what Mac was talking about.

She reads something off her phone before she starts a monologue. "Oh yeah right, it's all about Hailey Bieber she just can't leave Selena alone. I mean, yeah, she's her husband's ex, but Maddy and i get along really well, even though we dated the same guy. I think Miss Bieber just has very low self esteem, like why is she so obsessed with Selena?" Her attention returned to Fezco. "Uh... can you stay here a minute, i have to call Maddy." She pointed to the oven where the cauliflower cheese was in and left the kitchen.

A short time later her voice could be heard from the living room. "Hey Maddy, did you hear about the Kylie Jenner and Selena Gomez Drama? I know right.. Oh wait what? She wrote that she's a fan of Kylie? Ugh baby girl Selena is too sweet for this world. Too bad I'm not Selena's friend, i would smack the manners into these two bitches."

Ash looked to his older brother, a frown on his face. "Da fuck?"

– "I dunno, man." Fez answered with a little smirk and went to the oven to check on the food.

––

After Mac finished discussing the beef between the celebrity's with Maddy, the three of them ate together in the living room.

As soon as Ash put his empty plate down on the coffee table, Mac's gaze falled on the boy. He tried to ignore her annoying ass but she nudged his shoulder to get his attention.

It worked. He turned his head to the girl, a scowl on his face like most of the time. When she just looked at him with a grin, but didn't say anything, he raised his eyebrow even though he knew exactly what she was going to say.

"Aaaaaaand? It was super tasty, wasn't it?" She asked excitedly.

Ashtray shrugged his shoulders. "It was okay."

Mac fake gasped. "It was okay? Are you kidding? You had, like two refills!"

He shrugged again, unable to hold back a small grin. "I was hungry."

With a snort, she grabbed her unfinished Capri Sun from the coffee table before leaning back on the cushions and staring at the TV. It was still playing 'ugly americans' but she didn't mind. She liked funny shows.

"Don't listen to him, it was great ma." Fez said, picking up a little Container and longpapers from the coffee table to roll a joint.

Mac looked at him with a smile. She knew that Ash just wanted to annoy her and therefore pretended that her food tasted 'just okay', but receiving compliments from Fezco on her cooking made her happy.

"Thank you."

Ashtray rolled his eyes at the looks, the two exchanged. "Stop with the eye fucking shit while I'm here, that's disgusting."

The two just smirked at the boy's comment.

––

Later that evening, after Mac took the empty plates into the kitchen to do the dishes, Ash left the two of them alone. He wanted to play an online game in his room plus he wanted to give his brother some alone time with Mac because the truth was that he liked the girl. Yes, he always acted like she annoyed him with her stories, but he actually thought she was really cool.

She didn't judge him or Fez for dealing drugs at a young age, maybe it was because Fezco told her why they were doing it, but she was fine with that. She also didn't treat him like a child all the time and he might get used to her cooking for them. That shit was really tasty.

"Hey uh... thanks for cooking for us, i appreciate it." Fez said out of nowhere as they sat together on the couch.

Mac sat next to him with her head resting on his shoulder, but looked up at him to answer. "It was nothing." She smiled before looking back at the TV screen.

But they looked at each other a little too long because Mac suddenly felt a need. She wanted to kiss him.

Fez felt the same urge. Sighing softly, he put his arm on the back of the couch so that Mac's head was now placed on his chest. Her hand rested on his stomach.

Mac didn't want Fez to feel like she was just there so she could sleep with him. Knowing her reputation at school, she's sure Fez had already heard that she liked sex, so she tried to put her need aside, but when she noticed how his hand was playing with her curls, she looked up at him again.

Fez looked into her brown eyes and tried to resist the temptation to kiss her, but damn she looked so beautiful.

His fingers continue to play with her hair, giving her goosebumps. The sexual tension was unbearable. She couldn't hold back anymore. "Just a few little kisses." She whispered before she leaned in an pressed her lips to his.

Mac didn't know if she was trying to convince Fez or herself with her words, but she was dying to know what it felt like to kiss him.

Fezco returned her passionate kiss. Her lips felt softer than anything he had ever known, so soft like biting into cotton candy. He liked the feeling.

The brunette could taste the weed on his lips, which turned her on even more. Her hand, which was on his stomach, gripped the fabric of his polo shirt as she moaned into his mouth. His dick twitched at the sweet sound.

When Mac suddenly straddled his lap, he pulled away from her lips.
"We shouldn't do that, Ma." It wasn't that Fez didn't want to sleep with her, but he was concerned that just because they couldn't control their urges they would ruin their new friendship.

"No sex, i promise. I just wanna feel you." With that, she kissed him again while running her fingers under his shirt. Mac felt his warm skin under her hands and as she slid them to his chest she felt stubble from the hair growing there.

Kissing him felt good, so good that she slowly grinded herself against him. She noticed his erection growing which made her whimper. This make out session had her panties soaked, since she's not wearing pants she's almost sure Fez could feel it but she didn't care, like, let him feel that she liked what they were doing there.

Mac kissed sweet kisses from his chin to his neck and gently sucked the tender skin on his pulse, her long nails scraping across his chest.

"Shit Baby, you can't do that to me." Fez groaned and put his hands on her round ass, squeezing the soft flesh.

She grinned against his neck and kissed the spot behind his ear one last time before looking at him. "Like i said, no sex, but can i take this off of you?" Her fingers gripped the hem of his shirt.

In response, Fez nodded and pulled the Shirt over his head himself. Her eyes, which had darkened with lust, darted over his now bare chest. He didn't had a defined six pack like most of the boys in her school had, but that wasn't important to her.

His three gold chains lay around his neck and gave a slight accent to his fair skin, which was covered with many freckles. The brunette had to bite her lower lip to keep from moaning out loud. She found him incredibly sexy.

As Mac was about to remove her shirt as well, Fezco grabbed her hands. "If you do that, I dunno know if I can manage not to have sex with you." He warned, his heart was pounding fast in his chest.

His deep voice alone could make come. Mac thought, smirking at Fez with a teasing smile. "Let it come down to a test." She answered in a seductive tone before lifting the colorful shirt again, but before she can take it off, Beyoncé's voice filled the living room with the song 'Freakum Dress'.

When Mac recognized the ringtone of her phone, she annoyedly let go of her shirt. "Ugh of fucking course someone interrupts us." Mac murmured, as she leaned towards the coffee table to grab her phone. When she sees who was responsible for her not being able to continue making out with Feczo, she rolled her eyes. "It's my mom." She clicked her tongue and lowered her hand that was holding the ringing phone. "She's such a cockblocker, like omg let me have fun!"

Fez couldn't help but chuckle. He thought it was cute how the girl on his lap fussed about being interrupted. "Don't you want to answer?" Fez's hands slid from her ass to her thighs as he nodded toward her phone.

"Hell nah, i'm wetter than the cinema seats after fifty shades. There's no way i'mma talk to her while i'm in this position." Mac was tapping on her phone to text her mom that she'll be home soon. " I should go but i don't want to." She pouted.

He tapped Mac's bare thighs in amusement. "Come on ma, it's late, tomorrow is school, right?"

He was right, it was later than Mac intended to stay, but little did she know that her evening would end like this.

"Ew, don't remind me." The brunette groaned but got up from his lap. Even though she didn't have an orgasm, her legs felt like jelly. If this is how she felt after their little make out session, how would she feel after they had sex? Mac didn't mind finding out.

Fez also gets up from the couch and - much to Mac's disappointment - put his polo shirt on.

The brunette grabbed her purse before heading to the door with Fez. While he holds the two doors open, the girl slipped on her shoes.

"Do you need a jacket or something?" Fez asked, scratching the back of his head.

Mac grinned. It was very thoughtful of him to offer her a piece of clothing that would keep her warm, since the night had become noticeably colder. She knew that behavior from some guys she had slept with. Some of them wanted a relationship with her after they banged and hoped Mac would fall in love if they held the door open for her. Obviously that didn't happen.

Nate, too, was a gentleman at times. He was even really cute sometimes, like wrote her loving good night texts and shit but no text in the world could excuse his dishonesty towards her.

It was different with Fez. Mac felt that everything he did for her was sincere and without ulterior motives. She really liked that feeling.

After Mac tied her shoe, she approached Fezco, resting her hand on his chest while looking into his eyes. "I'm good. You've gotten me hot enough." Before Fez knew, Mac stood on her tiptoes and kissed him again.

He firmly pulled her body against his and he lightly slid his tongue across her bottom lip. Mac parted her lips slightly, allowing his tongue to slip inside. Her mouth was so soft, almost silken, and pillowy against his own. He already knew the feeling of kissing her would get him hooked.

Mac slid her finger up his body and cradled his face with her hands. She was enjoying the kiss as much as Fezco, but knew it had to end eventually. She pulled away and looked up at the man. Their faces were still so close together that she could feel his warm breath on her lips. "I really should go." Her voice was hoarse from the passionate kiss.

Fez nodded and brushed a lock of hair behind her ear. "Word."

The brunette smiled at his monosyllabic answer. "Bye Fezco."

Before Mac can go down the few steps, Fez grabbed her wrist. "Hey..." Surprised Mac looked over her shoulder to him. "Drive safe and text me when you get home, aight?"

In response, she smiled. "I will."

Fezco let go of her wrist and waits for her to get in her car and pull out of the parking space. When she was out of sight, he closed the two doors and locked them. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his pounding heart. He breathed in her fruity scent that hung in the air and shook his head.

Damn, i already miss her touch, man.

Chapter Text


To say Mac was in a good
mood after her weekend
would be an understatement.

Of course she didn't just write
him that she had arrived safely
at home, instead the two of them texted half the night , while Mac listened to the song 'strawberry bubblegum' in a loop.

Shit's cheesy as fuck.

However, the fact that Mac had
little sleep didn't show on her face the next day. Bitch was pretty as always in her pink two-piece suit.

The crop top showed off her cheerleading abs, you didn't even
have to look around to know all
the boys were drooling all over her.
She wore a sheer super cropped sweatshirt over the top that placed the focus on her breasts. Mac didn't have the biggest boobs, but you know,...
it worked.

But what Mac definitely had was a well-formed ass, like i would eat Thanksgiving dinner off dat ass and I'm sure as hell they are people who would destroy any chair in the world, just so she would sit on there faces. The matching flare leggings perfectly accentuate her ass. To her white Buffalo's she combined a fluffy bag, 'cause two things about Mac; she hated backpacks but loved shoes that made her taller.

Two things i particularly loved about mac's look were her juicy lips and her naturally curly hair. Beside from lip gloss, she didn't wear much make-up that day. A bit of bronzer and eyebrow gel, but thanks to eyelash extensions she was able to avoid putting on fake lashes in the morning.

I swear i have the most
beautiful best friend on this planet.

My weekend wasn't too bad either. I spent a lot of time with Jules. We got along really well and after she finally forgot how hot and amazing Mac was, we were able to talk about other topics. It was fun.


"Ugh, why does everybody think we fucked?"

Maddy asked slightly dramatically while walking down the school yard with Cassie and BB.

The two just walked on grinning, but stopped when they noticed that Mac just walked past them, completely ignoring the small group of girls.

"Yo Bitch?" BB called after her quietly as she followed Mac along with Cassie and Maddy, but she got no reaction from the brunette.

"Mac?" She called again, this time a little louder, but again she got no answer, Mac didn't even turn to her.

Maddy and Cassie exchanged confused looks while BB tried again to get the Donahu girl's attention.

"Mackenna!"

Mac heard someone call her name and looked up from her phone to face the person who had called her. A smile grew on her face as she saw Maddy and BB. "Sorry, i didn't see you bitches at all." She approached the twoand hugged them briefly. Cassie, on the other hand, only got a nod in greeting. "Cassie."

The blonde nodded back in a strangely intimidated way. "Hey Mac."

The thing about Mac is that while almost everyone wants to be her friend, Mac doesn't want everyone by her side.

She really doesn't refer many people as her friends. She gets along well with some and she's nice if you don't piss her off, but just because she's nice to you doesn't mean you're Mac's friend.

Obviously Cassie wasn't

Then there are people that Mac tolerates around her. These are people Mac wouldn't actually have anything to do with if they weren't in her live because of others.

I'm basically Mac's sister. Maddy, BB and Kat were her friends. She got along with Cassie. And Lexi... well she tolerated Lexi.

In her defense, the two didn't have much to do with each other. Mac's lifestyle was too wild for Lexi. Too many parties, too many drugs, too much sex. Mac, on the other hand, found Lexi boring.

It was A different story with Cassie. Mac didn't have much of an issue with the blonde. Cassie had done something to her, but Mac always had a weird feeling about her. That feeling wasn't strong enough to avoid Cassie entirely , but strong enough to keep some emotional distance from the girl.

Cassie was always secretly jealous of Mac 'cause she was pretty and popular, she always got the hottest guys, and she didn't care what other people thought.

That's why the blonde really wanted to be friends with her. She hoped it would make her a little more like Mac.

Little did she know that
nobody could be like Mac.

"Bitch, what are you talking about, we're the most expensive pussy's here, nobody can't overlook us." BB said as she entered the school building with the other girls.

When Maddy saw the phone in Mac's hands, she realized why the brunette overlooked them. "Do you text a dick?" The latina smiled teasingly.

Maddy's question also catches the attention of the other two girls, who of course want to be a part of the latest gossip.

BB snorted. "What dick? There's no chance Mac will text a guy after they fucked. Nate broke her little heart, remember?"

Mac and Maddy rolled their eyes in annoyance. They both loved the Brookes-Girl, but sometimes she just talked a lot of shit.

"Stop being a cunt, you're not funny right now." Maddy groaned as she opened her locker they had arrived at.

Normally Mac would show everyone why it's not a good idea to talk about her and Nate's ex-relationship, like, she'd probably start an argument with anyone who dropped a line like that, but BB was her friend, and besides, she got distracted when her phone buzzed in her hand.

Mac
I'm @school now, but i know at least a hundred places i'd rather be, especially one 😏

Fez ☁🍓
u cute and shit but
shit's important, ma

Without Mac being able to do anything about it, a smile spread across her face as she read Fez's answer. He's so mature, shit turns me hella on.

Maddy gasped when she saw the happy smile on her best friend's face. "Hang on! Are you really texting a guy? Who is it?" The latina positioned herself next to Mac to get a glimpse of her phone's screen, but the brunette reacted quickly, clutching her phone to her chest with a mischievous grin.

"Is it the guy you danced with at the party?" BB asked, while Maddy and Cassie curiously awaited Mac's answer, but she only grimaced at the mention of a guy she couldn't even remember.

"I don't know what y'all talking about, i literally just texted Rue." Mac lied, even though she knew none of the girls would buy that shit.

"Oh yeah? Did she send you a nude or why do you wear such a big ass smile when you read a message?" The Brooke's-Girl deadpannend.

Mac just gave BB a fake smile, while Maddy thought about who the brunette beauty might have met. Suddenly she gasped again, which drew the eyes of the other three girls to her. "When i came out of the pool..." –

"You mean when you were done letting that guy fuck you?" BB interrupted the Latina.

Maddy just rolled her eyes, but kept talking. "When i came out of the pool i looked for you but only found Kat who told me you were with Fez." She ended her story with a confident smile.

"Fez as in our drug dealer Fez?" Asked Cassie, who had stayed out of the conversation so far.

"Bitch are you fucking serious? You fuck our drug dealer?" BB asked excitedly. "That's dope, man." She added. 

It annoyed Mac that BB had spoken so loud for everyone to hear because nobody here in this damn school mind their own business, but what bothered the brunette even more was how the two girls talked about Fez, like he's good for nothing but selling fucking drugs.

"Y'all trippin." The brunette said, the irritation in her voice undeniable. She left the small group to go to her own locker before she could say anything that she might regret later. Especially around Cassie she didn't want reveal too much about her current private life.

Nate watched his ex-girlfriend disappear into the crowd of teenagers as he joined Maddy and the other two girls. He knew Mac so well that he could see that she was upset. "What was that about?" He didn't ask anyone in particular, he didn't even look at his on again - off again girlfriend because his eyes were still on Mac, who was standing a few feet away at her own locker, pulling out exercise books for the first lesson.

Maddy and Nate hadn't spoken since the incident at the party and it bothered her that he was paying so little attention to her at that moment. She closed her locker, rolling her eyes and just walked away from Nate. BB followed her.

"We think she's mad because we found out she fucks Fez." Revealed Cassie, who is still standing next to Nate.

His head snapped in her direction. The blonde could see the anger in his eyes and wondered why this information made him so angry since the two broke up a year ago. Cassie knew no more than Maddy or anyone else about their split. Neither of them talked about what happened back then.

When Nate looked back at Mac, he saw her smiling at her phone. His jaw clenched when he saw the happy smile on her lips, seeing what he already knew. The fucking wannabe gangster fucks his girl.

––

The first lesson was theatre. Mac only took this class because Rue was in it. She smiled when she saw her best friend sitting on the floor in front of the stage.

"Heeeey Beebe Rue." Mac greeted her with a kiss on the cheek before she nodded to Lexi, who was sitting next to her best friend. The younger Howard-Girl smiled in response, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.

"Sup Mac?" Rue asked, letting her eyes slide up and down the girl.

The brunette sighed dramatically. "I'm done with this shit before it even starts, like who thought starting school that early was a good idea. I'm damn sure someone who didn't give a shit about their looks 'cause that someone didn't understand the meaning of beauty sleep."

Mac knew she was an overdramatic bitch, but not only was she tired or mad at Cassie and BB for seeing Fez as nothing more than a drug dealer, she was also out of drugs.

"Watchu mean beauty sleep? Your ass is hella fine." Rue answered, meaning it like she said it, although she always felt a bit awkward when she complimented Mac like this. To hide her flushed cheeks, she pulled on the hood of her maroon hoodie.

Mac smiled, touched by her best friend's words. "Thank you, babe."

When Mac gave Rue a side hug, Lexi rolled her eyes. She's been friends with Rue for almost as long as Rue and Mac have known each other, and she loved Rue. she always wanted the best for her. The problem is that she didn't think Mac is what's best for Rue. She's loud, she's wild, she's messy. Rue needs a stable constant in her life, especially after her OD, and not someone who also used drugs when life gets a little too difficult.

"So, let's start with a little improvisation. I would like each of you to get up and tell us a five minute story about your summer."

Mac groaned internally at her teacher's words. She hated being forced to listen to other people talk about themselves and it wasn't like she was friends with any of her classmates other than rue, so why should she tell them how she'd spent her summer. What was she supposed to tell them anyway?

She went to countless parties, had a lot of sex with random guys and was high most of the time. It was a perfect summer for Mac. Well, if she hadn't been so worried about Rue. So, it was an almost perfect summer for her.

"Looks like we have our first volunter. Rue, come on up." Spoke the teacher, even though Rue didn't volunteer at all.

"Please, don't do this to me."
Rue's begging were barely heard, since she hid her face in her zip hoodie but Mac understood the unclear words and turned to her teacher.

"I can do it." She said, as she got up off the hard floor.

Yes, Mac didn't want to do that crap either, but if she could help Rue with it, she'd do anything.

"Thanks Mackenna, but i called upon Rue. Come on, everyone. Let's give her a little encouragement." The teacher started clapping, the students imitated this action.

The brunette rolled her eyes at this stupid behavior. As if Rue would automatically feel better just because she gets applause for something she didn't even want to do. Annoyed by the situation, Mac sat back down.

Rue gave her best friend a thankful look before walking slowly onto the stage. As she turned to her classmates, a single spotlight focused on her. Rue hated that kind of attention.

"Uh, a memory?" Rue asked, her voice was shaking. Her hands ran frantically through her curls before Rue slipped them into her pockets.

"Anything that hat an impact on you this summer." The teacher responded. Her demanding voice only made Rue more nervous. She searched the small crowd for Mac's eyes, feeling like only her encouraging smile was holding her together at this moment.

"Uh... i don't... i don'tdon't, I can't think of..." – Rue's thoughts revolved around what she had been doing that summer, but there was nothing to tell. Her summer was all depression and drugs.

Anger rose in Mac. It was obvious that Rue was uncomfortable with all the fucking attention.

"Just Relax your body. Release the tension and just breathe."

Lexi glanced at Mac when she noticed the girl tense next to her. She knew it wasn't going to take much longer for Mac to snap. She also felt sorry for Rue, but at that moment she couldn't do anything for her.

"So, this summer?" Rue asked, still nervous.

"Yes." The teacher answered.

There was a little pause before Rue tried to explain herself. "I.. i'm having trouble, uh, like remembering something, you know?"

It seemed the teacher didn't want to hear about it because instead of leaving Rue alone, she kept pressing for an answer.

"Just tell us a specific memory."

Rue knew she was making a fool of herself, but she just couldn't think straight. All she remembered was nearly killing herself with all the drugs she was doing and all the fights she had with her mother because she couldn't stay clean. There was only one moment when she didn't feel like a piece of shit. In that little moment everything seemed fine.

"Okay, uh, i was with my mom and my, um little sister. We were, uh, listening to this... to this song..." Rue didn't manage to form a complete sentence. The nervousness of being forced to think about this summer made her stutter. "I'm sorry, but I can't think of anything so,... i'm uh, i'm done. Do i have to do this?" She asked, desperation dripping with every word.

Mac took a deep breath. It broke her heart to see her best friend like that. But her feelings quickly turned to unbridled anger when she heard two students behind her begin to whisper about Rue.

"Honestly, i bet it's brain damage."

Mac turned so quickly that neither of them could see it coming. "You wanna say that a little bit louder? Why are you talking shit about her? Say something to me, bitch. Come on, talk that shit to me."

The two girls only look at each other uncertainly. They had no intention of anyone overhearing her conversation, especially not Mac.

"That's what i thought." Mac added when neither of them gave her an answer.

"Mackenna, i would really appreciate it if you wouldn't disturb my class." The teacher said, who noticed Mac's little freaks out. It's not the first time, so she's not surprised, but she won't condone such behavior.

Mac frowned in disbelief as she turned her attention to the teacher. "Oh really? you know what i would appreciate? If you didn't humiliate your students, like, you know what?" The brunette stood up and looked at rue, who was still standing on the stage. "Rue, get down there. You don't have to do that bullshit."

Grateful that she was finally able to escape the situation, Rue walked off the stage and left the room. Lexi followed her.

"Mackenna what do you think you are doing here?" The teacher asked the girl in a unkind way.

"No, this isn't about me, the real question is what do you think you're doing here, like, to what extent is what you are doing here educationally valuable?"

Just like Mac, the other students waited for an answer from their teacher, but she only crossed her arms in front of her chest and thought it was a better idea to change the subject. "Mackenna, i would like you to go to the principal, please."

Mac grabbed her bag from the floor. "Aight, but i want you to think about how you treat your students 'cause there's no way you don't know what happened to Rue this summer. It's a small ass town, so don't pretend you don't know." With that, the brunette left the class, leaving a speechless teacher behind.

––

While Mac was in a little argument with her teacher, Rue was in the school bathroom, trying to keep her composure. She was about to snore a few lines when Lexi startled her so much that she reflexively flushed the drugs down the toilet.

"You're fucking stupid, Lexi!" Rue said without any emotion in her voice as she opened the stall door.

Lexi didn't know what she had done wrong and looked at Rue, who just walked past her. "Why?"

– "Because i already flushed everything down the fucking toilet." Rue was pissed, those were her last drugs.

Rue's words weren't harsh, but they were cold, and so was the look she gave the Howard-Girl.

"I just came to check on you." Lexi said in a calm tone. She didn't want to upset Rue any more, she was just worried about Rue and didn't want her to be alone.

But Rue wanted to be alone.

Or with Mac.

Lexi's innocent manner only provoked her in moments like this. Rue knew the girl meant well and that she wanted to help her but she didn't want to hear anything on what she had to say.

"I don't..." Rue hit one of the stall doors. Her irritation grew with every second. "I don't want to be fucking checked on whether i'm fine or i'm not fine. What difference are you going to make? Are you going to give me some life advice? You're gonna fucking help me?" Her words were harsher this time.

Lexi crossed her arms. She was hurt by Rue's words, but she didn't want her to know that. "You're one of my best friends." She turned to Rue again as she walked past her to the sink.

Annoyed, Rue turned in Lexi's direction and took a few steps towards the girl. "Give me a fucking break." She almost begged. "Because we went to preschool together? That doesn't make us the best of fucking friends." She snorted in amusement. "Do you want to know who my best friend is? Mac, 'cause she don't give me that shit every single time."

Lexi closed her eyes for a moment. She didn't want to get mad at Rue knowing she was just angry about losing the drugs, but her words cut deeper than a knife. "You say all this but what happens in three days when you knock on my door asking me to piss in some tylenol bottle? Where was Mac there? Oh yeah right, she can't do a fucking drug test for you because she's on drugs all the time too." She said, trying to hold back the tears.

– "If you have something to say, say it to my face, bitch."

Lexi didn't have to look around to know who entered the school bathroom. She swallowed and followed Mac with her eyes as she walked towards Rue for a side hug.

Lexi took a deep breath as she saw Rue leaning into Mac's embrace. She cleared her throat before speaking to Mac. "If you really want to help her, tell her to stop using drugs!"

The brunette let go of her best friend and turned her attention to the younger Howard-Sister. "Are you for real? Do you think it's that simple?" She slowly approached Lexi. "Telling a drug addict to stop using drugs is like telling a depressed person to just be happy. It doesn't work like that, little Bird." She looked the girl up and down in disgust before she turned back to Rue.

Lexi chose to ignore Mac and looked at Rue with a mixture of disappointment and anger. "Dammit Rue, it's like you have a split personality disorder. Sorry if i miss the old you."

Lexi left the school bathroom after that.

––

After the bathroom incident, Mac went to the principal to get his standard speech about getting her alleged anger issues under control. Same shit, different day.

Later that day, Mac entered the cafeteria. she was wearing her Cheerleader uniform because the pep rally was coming up.

Mac ran her eyes over each and every student who were either there to eat or to watch the half-naked cheerleaders dance. She smiled when she saw Rue and Jules sitting at one of the tables. She wanted to go to them, but was prevented from doing so because someone grabbed her upper arm. A sideways glance told her that this someone was Nate.

When Nate Jacobs was eleven years old, he found his dad's porn collection. His dad, Cal, was obsessive. His mom always said that's who he got it from. Then he quickly realized that the colored cases and placement were no accident. It was an elaborate code, so that no one fucked with his shit.

I think that breaking up with Mac made him even crazier. He was an asshole when they were together, but he became an even bigger asshole afterwards. Or how do you explain the fact that he's been trying to get her back for over a year while maintaining an extremely toxic relationship with one of her friends?

This shit's sick.


"What do you want?" She asked annoyed while letting her gaze wander around the room in boredom.

"I told you we'll see each other at school." Nate said while taking one of Mac's curls between his fingers. "Or did you forget that while our little Pablo Escobar was fucking you?"

Mac pulled her head away, but otherwise remained calm. "Careful playboy, one might think you're jealous." She looked up at her ex-boyfriend for the first time that day and grinned as she watched his arrogant smile slip away.

Nate's grip on Mac's upper arm tightens as he leaned down slightly.
"Aight baby, let's get this straight, i'm not jealous, it's just... you're mine."

Mac snorted. The words that would have turned her on then, make her want to throw up now. "No Nate, not anymore or maybe i never was, it doesn't matter, 'cause i regret everything. All of it. You, me... what we did..." With that she tore herself out of Nate's grasp and went to Rue and Jules.

The Jacobs-Boy watched with clenched jaw as his ex-girlfriend sat down next to jules and had to suppress the urge to drag her away from there. To distract himself, he looked around at his teammates, noticing the other boys' lustful looks at his girl. He knew exactly what they were thinking when Mac walked past them in her slutty little cheerleader uniform, and he also knew that Mac enjoyed the attention, which only increased his anger.

He quickly left the cafeteria to put the plan he had made that morning into action.

Chapter Text


I knew from the moment Mac entered the cafeteria and Jules would see her that she would only have eyes for her.

I wasn't jealous or shit, just... confused. And in a bad mood.

"Hey Jules, you good?" With a sigh, Mac sat down at the table. Nate was really starting to get on her nerves. How many times should she tell him she's done with him?

Jules followed Mac's gaze to her bandaged arm and waved her off with a laugh. "Oh yeah, it's nothing. Thanks again for helping me."

Rue was about to bang her head on the table. Jules already thanked her several times the night of the party. She really acted like an idiot when Mac was around.

The brunette seemed to think so too, because in response she just gave the blond a quick smile. Before Jules could embarrass herself any more, Rue started a conversation with her best friend.

"What did he want?" With her question, Rue nodded in the direction Mac was standing with Nate a moment ago.

Mac sighed again while adjusting her cheerleader top. She really didn't feel like talking about Nate, so she dismissed the subject with a terse reply. "He showed me once again why it was good not to give him a second chance after his toxic ass betrayed me, but anyways, what did you guys do at the weekend?"

– "Oh uh, we were just hanging out." Jules answered, a little too indifferent for Rue's liking.

Yeah, they just hung out, talked, listened to music, got high, but it meant something to Rue. Hearing Jules downplay it gave her a little pang in the heart.

"Like together?" Mac asked, glancing back and forth between the two with a mischievous grin. 

While Rue nodded her head slightly, Jules' attention fell on something behind Mac. A black boy with dark curly hair set up a projector on one side of the cafeteria. Jules was sure that she saw this boy at the party on friday.

"Well, that's cute." Mac smiled at Rue with an i-know-there's-more smile, causing Rue to clear her throat nervously.

"Uh yeah, what did you do on the weekend?" Rue wasn't shy or something, but after Jules downplayed their togetherness, she didn't want to give the impression that they were anything more than just hanging out.

The brunette was about to answer when Kat sat down next to Mac. "Hey bitches" She hugged Mac and smiled happily at the other two.

"Look who we have here, miss I-lost-my-V-Card-at-Mckay's-Party." Mac laughed as she let go of Kat.

"You already know? I wanted to tell you!" The girl groaned.

"Sorry babe, Maddy already told me but like, did you feel good about it?"

Mac was of course happy for her friend, of course, and even though she heard from Maddy how euphoric Kat was after losing her virginity, Mac wanted to make sure Kat was okay with what happened that night.

"Yes, it was with Wes." she said in a low tone. "I don't have any comparisons yet, but he was actually quite good in bed." She smiled.

Mac smiled at her friend. She knew that Kat finally wanted to have sex to fit in. Mac thought that was silly, but if Kat was happy, then so was she. "That's good to hear. Too many people regret their first time having sex."

Kat frowned. "Do you regret it?"

Mac remembered her first time having sex. She was 14 and had been with Nate for just three months. It was on a weekend, Nate's parents drove to their chalet just outside of town. Aaron, Nate's older brother, went to a party, leaving Mac and Nate alone in the house. The two teenagers made burgers and snuggled up in Nate's bed to watch 'Don't knock twice' on netflix. The brunette lay with her head on her boyfriend's chest and was so engrossed in what was happening in the horror movie that at first she didn't even notice Nate's hand sliding under the covers, but when she felt a touch on her thigh, she looked up at him.

He whispered to her how beautiful she was while his fingers glistened over her soft skin. His hand wandered more and more to her lady parts, she moaned when he touched her for the first time at this body part. As Nate kissed his girlfriend, he deftly slipped his hand inside her short pajama pants and pulled her underwear aside. Mac liked what was happening in her lower region and let Nate know it with sweet whines.

He fingered her and that alone drove the teenage girl crazy in the best way possible, it wasn't long before she wanted more. Until she wanted him.

It wasn't spectacular. There were no red roses, no erotic music, and no candles either. The death screams from the tv were drowned out by the pleasurable moans that both gave out.

Women are told so many things about what sex first time feels like.
That there will be more blood than in the lawnmower scene from the movie 'braindead', that's it's going to hurt like having your hymen pierced with a knife and and that it should be with someone special.

The latter was the case with Mac. For her, Nate was something special. She wasn't bleeding and it didn't hurt much either, it was just a bit uncomfortable since he stretched her out with his dick, but that sweet pain combined with his touch gave her the pleasure she needed.

Mac didn't have an orgasm the first time she had sex, but she didn't care. It was very sweaty, overwhelming, and it was with Nate - it was perfect for her.

The brunette shook her head imperceptibly to get herself out of her thoughts. "No. There's a lot that can be said about Nate, but unfortunately he's damn good in bed. Maybe that's why i stayed with him for so long." She finally answered Kat with a sigh.

"Wait, okay, oh my god, your first time was with that dude?" Jules asked, shocked that Mac had not only dated this guy, but that she had also given him her virginity.

Mac looked at the girl. "Yeah, he was my first time for everything, well.. almost everything." Her gaze slid to Rue with a mischievous grin. "'Cause my first kiss was with my homegirl here."

Rue just gave her a bashfully smile while Jules looked back and forth between the two, mouth slightly open because that was something she wasn't expecting.

"Does that mean you're bisexual or something?" The blonde asked Mac. Rue could hear the hopeful tone in her voice.

The Donahue-Girl shrugged her shoulders. "I dunno what i am, i just know that i love kissing people and having sex with them. I'd never fucked with a girl yet, but you never know."

What Mac didn't tell the girl was that besides kissing and having sex, what she loved most was the attention someone gave her during those activities. Those moments were about her. She felt needed and valued in a messed up way.

"Yeah well, breaking up with Nate might not have been a bad idea 'cause now you can have as much sex as you want." Kat said dreamily while leaning one arm on the table to rest her head on it.

The brunette pulled a hair tie from her wrists to create a high ponytail so her wild curls wouldn't bother her while she danced. "You know, sex is great and all, but sex with someone you love hits different." She answered her friend.

"So, you loved him?" Jules' expression was incredulous. She saw firsthand how Nate treats girls, so she couldn't understand how one could love him.

Something about that question triggered something in Mac, causing her to look at the blonde in disbelief. "What do you mean, did i love him? Why else did i have a relationship with him for so long?"

Kat and Rue exchanged a meaningful look. They knew it was better not to ask the Donahue girl questions like this.

Jules also seemed to notice that she probably made a mistake. "Uh i don't know, i heard his dad is pretty rich, so..." She laughed nervously, hoping to lighten the situation a bit.

Before Mac could ask the girl if she thinks she's a fucking gold digger, Kat, who realized that this sentence only made her friend angrier, joined the conversation. "That's funny 'cause Mac could buy all the apartments he owns if she wanted to." She laughed.

"And if she were of legal age." Rue added with a small smile.

The conversation wasn't a nice one for her. She couldn't have a say when it came to sex with boys. Her encounters with the male sex were uncomfortable and made her realize that she is a lesbian. Having to hear that Mac loved someone like Nate did the rest. She knew that. She was there for her when she broke up with him, she knew how much Jacob's-Boy meant to her, but that didn't mean she wanted to hear it again and again.

Rue hated it at least as much as her best friend when she was asked about Nate. The brunette didn't talk about it herself, but when asked about it, she answered to prove to herself that she didn't mind the breakup.

"Oh fuck, so you're rich too?" Jules asked with interest, making Rue roll her eyes again. What kind of  question is that?

Mac noticed that her best friend was annoyed with Jules' behavior and didn't want to make the situation worse by being mean to the blonde, so she sighed and gave Jules a small smirk. "My mom is, but since she doesn't give two fucks about me, i don't feel bad about taking her money."

– "Where's my team?" Came the loud question from the coach who entered the cafeteria.

Mac tightened her high ponytail and rose from the table. "That's my Cue. Enjoy the show." She said to her friends and Jules before winking at Rue, who laughed in response.

"Gooooo bitch!" Kat cheered loudly, making Mac laugh as she walked over to her cheer team.

"Where's Jacob's?" The Coach looked around the cafeteria for his quarterback, but couldn't see him anywhere, but he saw someone else who might be able to help him. "Donahue?"

Mac, who just wanted to talk to Maddy about the upcoming performance, turned to the football coach with a frown. "Ew, why the heck should i know where he is?"

Maybe because he thinks you two are still together after he caught you fucking in the sports equipment storage?

Mac ignored the voice in her head that reminded her of the embarrassing experience and was about to tell the coach that she had no idea where Nate was when the boy rushed into the cafeteria.

"Ah, there's my golden boy. Ok, then we can start." The Coach's words made Mac turn back to the girls with an eye roll. "Are we gonna win?" He yelled out, earning cheers from the students in response. "Then let's hear it for the East Highland  Blackhawks!" He pointed his finger at his team, who scattered the cafeteria at that.

From the other side, the cheerleaders ran down the stairs and started their performance after the music filled the room.

Nate's gaze was on Maddy before letting it slide to Mac. Both beautiful, both hot, both could move well, but only one had his heart.

The teenager was torn, he found Mac incredibly sexy in the short cheerleading uniform that showed more skin than it covered, shit, the top was so short that you could see her underboob and while that drove him crazy, he knew that many male students' eyes were glued to Mac as well and he also knew the little whore enjoyed the looks on her body.

Mac didn't even pay attention to the looks of the students because as soon as she moved to the beat of the music, she felt free.

When she danced, she forgot everything; the argument that morning with her mother because she overslept, the shitty situation in the theatre class and the scolding she got from her principal because of it, Nate's presence, the fact that Fez still hadn't replied to her message, even her craving for the drugs.

It was just her and the music, that's why she loved to dance so much.

She was in her element...

...until the music suddenly stopped and was replaced by loud moans.

Mac's head turned to the wall where a video was playing of two people having sex in the cowgirl position.

You couldn't see much as the video was taken from behind the girl, but what you saw was clear; the girl's long, brown curls covered her bare back as she tilted her head back, moving her body up and down in a steady rhythm.

Everyone who knew the girl from the tape knew who it was even if her face wasn't visible. The one who published this video was probably not so sure that everyone recognized the girl on the tape and let the video switch to another scene.

Again the lustful moans of the girl sounded the cafeteria but this time she was positioned so that she was facing the camera. The boy's face couldn't be seen, only part of his upper body was visible behind her as he fucked her from behind. 

With a clicking sound, the picture on the wall went black. The Video only lasted a few minutes, but for Mac it felt like the moment would never end but when it did, Mac found Nate's amused look almost immediately.

The brunette ignored the looks at her, she ignored the lewd cheers and also the loud whistles of some students as she rushed towards her ex-boyfriend.

"You damn bastard, i'll fuck you up!" She screamed in rage, while hitting his chest with as hard blows as she could muster.

Nate scoffed, barely feeling her punches through his shoulder pads. He caught her hands and held her wrists tightly together. Mac tried to free herself from his grip but it was useless, the Jacob's-Boy was stronger.

"Hey hey hey hey, let her go." Said the Coach as he made his way through the students, who were either curiously or amusedly following what was happening.

With a smug grin, Nate complied with his trainer's request and let go of his ex-girlfriend.

Mac took one last look around the room before leaving the cafeteria.

She didn't run as she walked to her locker, yet she was breathing heavily from the anger coursing through her body. It was difficult for the teenage girl to control her emotions. She felt exposed and humiliated, but most of all she felt the pain in her chest. She didn't want to feel all that - she couldn't feel all that. So she decided to just be angry. Anger was an emotion she could deal with best.

As the brunette reached into her locker to get her bag out, she noticed blood on her finger. She must have injured one of her acrylic nails when she punched Nate.

Hell, now i broke a nail because of that motherfucker.

With a sigh, she closed her locker door and headed for the school exit. She was in no mood to attend class after the event, so call it a day.

Mac heard her phone vibrate in her purse but ignored it. She could guess that it's Rue or one of the girls wanting to ask if she was alright.

The truth was, she wasn't.

Nate, the boy she loved like nothing else before, leaked a video of her having sex with him.

The whole school saw it. Well, they didn't see that he was the boy in the video since his face was never seen, but Mac knew it was him. After all, she was there. She was the fucking protagonist of this sex tape.

The brunette didn't know that Nate had footage of them fucking. She would never have allowed him to record her having sex together. It disgusted the girl that he not only secretly filmed her in such an intimate situation, but also kept the videos for who knows what.

Yeah, some of the boys and girls at this school have already seen her naked and not on some amateur sex film, but in real life, but it was different to be filmed having sex with someone you gave your heart to. Sex with Nate means something to Mac. It was so much more meaningful than sex she had with random guys.

It hurt that he obviously saw things differently.

––

Once home, she headed straight to her room to change, since she was still in her cheerleading uniform, but was stopped by Fergus.

Fergus was a man in his fifties who worked for her mother. He was responsible for handling the daily operations of a house and responding her mother's needs. Ophelia Donahue called it butler. Mac called it House Manager.

"Pleased to meet you, Miss Mackenna." Fergus greeted the girl while pulling a pocket watch from his suit pocket to have a look. "Aren't you supposed to be at school by this time?"

Mac can't help but crack a smile. She liked the middle-aged man. He was the only one in this damn expensive house to take care of Mac, something she can't say about her mother.

"Ferg, i already told you to call me Mac like all my friends do, but uh, yeah... we finished school early. You know, on the first day you only clarify organizational things and stuff like that." She lied skillfully to avoid revealing the real reason she's already home.

In response, the house manager nodded his head. "I would like to remind you that your mother is on an appointment with a client and... are you hurt miss Mac?" the teenage girl gave Ferg a confused look at this sudden change of subject, but before she could say anything he was already heading towards the kitchen. "Let me get the first aid kit right away to bandage your finger."

Reflexively, Mac looked down at her hand, where she saw her injured finger. "Oh no, that's okay Ferg, it's nothing. Just a little injury from cheerleading practice. I'll take care of it myself, thank you though." With that she went upstairs.

Once in her room, she closed the door and leaned her back against it with a sigh. In those moments, Mac hated having a mother whose work was more important to her than her own child. She would like to have a mother she could trust completely and talk to about anything - talk about the fact that there is probably a sex tape of her on the internet now.

But her mother wasn't there.

She never was.

Mac opened her eyes, which she had I her because she genuinely believed that Nate was the best behaved young man in East Highland.

She scoffed at the thought.
Best behaved young man, my ass.

Her phone vibrated again, but instead of ignoring it again, she pulled it out of her purse this time. As Mac suspected, she saw numerous attempted calls and texts from Rue on the screen. She quickly texted her that everything was fine and that she was home. She chose to reply later to Kat and Maddy, who also texted her, instead opening the text history with Fezco.

Nothing.

Mac tries to ignore the disappointing feeling in her chest and types a message.

Mac
I gave u a boner
don't ignore me

Without hesitation, Mac sent off the text. She knew Fez got her sense of humor. She placed her phone on a dresser, kicked her shoes off her feet and tossed her purse carelessly on the bed before heading to the attached bathroom for a quick shower. She felt dirty and gross.

––

After Mac showered, she changed into lace panties, baggy jeans, and a white tank top that she tied under her breasts before slipping into her Buffalo's. Grabbing her purse and phone, she leaved the house. She told Fergus she was going to a friend's house, in fact she was on her way to the nail salon. She didn't want her mother to know where she was if she asked Fergus about it.

The injury on her index finger looked worse than it was. It was no problem for Mac's nail designer to remove the old acrylic nail design and replace it with a new one. The brunette opted for something simple this time. Well,... simple by her standards. She kept the length and the square-extreme shape, but instead of a bright color, she chose soft nude and brown tones. A golden teddy bear figure was glued on the Nails of her index finger and little finger, the remaining nails had cute patterns and a few rhinestones. Mac was happy with the result, so she left the nail studio in a better mood than before.

Her good mood didn't last long because suddenly it started to rain. She cursed herself for walking to the nail studio instead of driving with the car but she wanted to clear her head.

Now she not only has a head full of shitty thoughts, but also wet clothes and even wetter hair. She didn't need a mirror to know that her natural curls made her look like a wet poodle.

But walking home in the pouring rain was just the tip of the iceberg. Mac was powerless as all the negative events of the day play out like a movie inside her head. It started with an argument with her birth giver and ended with a free porn for the students at East Highland High School.

The brunette saw the many faces looking at her with different emotions. Some looked at her in disgust, some laughed or cheered, some even looked like they admired Mac for being the girl in the video.

It was uncomfortable, but she could deal with it. What was worse for her was Rue's expression. She looked like she was suffering more from the fact that this video was being shown than Mac. There was so much pity in her eyes. So much worry.

Mac felt her chest tighten, she hated seeing her best friend like that. Mac didn't want Rue to feel responsible for her, she had enough problems of her own and the brunette didn't want to be one of them. She wanted to see Rue laughing and carefree.

Damn she loved her.

And damn she needed drugs.

Without further ado, Mac decided to go to Fezco. His apartment wasn't very far away, she wanted to see him and she knew he had what she needed right now.

Mac knocked on the door as she pulled up outside the apartment, but instead of the door being opened for her, all she saw was the camera moving in her direction.

"Open the door." Mac demanded. She knew that Ash was sitting behind his monitor.

"What do you want?" The boy asked over the intercom.

"Come on Ash don't play games with me." The brunette groaned. "It's pouring, i'm wetter than a fucking cucumber in a womens prison. Open the damn door." She addet slightly irritated.

Finally Ash opened the door so Mac could walk straight into the living room.

"Have you ever heard of an umbrella? You use that shit when it rains." Ash deadpannend, earning a blank look from the girl.

She was wet, she was shaking from cold and she was out of drugs, so she really didn't feel like having a verbal slugfest with Ash.

Before Mac could ask him if his brother was home, there were footsteps followed by a voice. "Yo, who is it, man?" Fez entered the living room, his eyes widening in horror when he saw Mac standing at the dining table.

"It's me. I need something, but first i have to get some dry clothes." With that she walked past Fez and went to his bedroom.

Fez tried to grab her arm but Mac was quicker so he followed her down the hall. "Hold on, hold on, you can't be in her right now." He said.

The brunette stopped and turned to Fez. "Why not? Is there a girl in there or something?" Mac questioned from under furrowed brows. "I really don't care right now, i just want a dry shirt." She added before turning the doorknob and entering his room.

She was secretly happy that nobody was in there.

Although Mac hadn't slept a night here, she and Fez spent time in this room, so she opened the door of his closet and grabbed some shirt, which she then threw onto his bed.

"Nah, nah, i can't help you right now. You gotta go." Fez said in a serious tone. He knew that Mac didn't just come to him for dry clothes, but also for drugs.

The brunette grimaced but didn't let his words stop her from looking for socks.

"Yo, for real, Mac. I ain't fucking playing with you. Come on, you can't be in here." There's impatience in his voice but Mac didn't care.

"Fez, i'm soaked, okay, you can literally see my tits through my top, so stop telling me i shouldn't be here." She pulled said top over her head and let it fall to the floor. She did the same with her shoe's, pants and socks before slipping into the fresh t-shirt.

He couldn't enjoy the sight of her bare back or or her ass, which was only covered by a transparent panty because at that moment he just wanted the girl to get out of there.

"I'm dead serious Mac."

Mac rolled her eyes as she slipped the second sock over her foot. "So am i." She rose from the bed to go back into the living room. "I'm out of drugs, plus i've had a really shitty day, so don't be a dick." With her word she sat down on the couch and looked at the white ceiling.

"Listen, sorry your day sucked." Fet stepped in front of Mac to get her attention, so she could see that despite his calm voice, he was serious. "You gotta get up my house right now, before these motherfuckers come through."

Annoyed, Mac ran a hand through her wet locks. She should have dried them off with a towel, but she forgot and was too lazy to get up now. "If these motherfuckers bring drugs, they're welcome. I just need some coke or something."

Slowly but surely, Fez got angry. There was no sign of the sweet girl who was with him over the weekend instead Mac was acting like a fucking brat. "Yo, i'm trying to tell you, i don't got shit right now, like come back in a few hours, i got you. Whatever you need. But right now, you gotta get the fuck up out my house." He said.

Fez didn't know if he meant what he said, after all he didn't want to supply her with hard drugs, but at that moment he would have said anything to get Mac out of the house.

Unfortunately for him it didn't work.

"I ain't going." Mac answered in a bored tone, she was far too exhausted to have this conversation. "Just give me something."

Fezco wiped his face in frustration. "I'm just telling you, I don't got shit for you. Mac, come on, i need you out the House right know. My guys about to come trough. I don't want you here when he gets here, you understand?"

Even though his irritation was audible in his voice, Mac didn't move.

Fezco crouched down and grabbed her wrists "Mac, look at me." The girl followed his request and looked into his blue eyes. "This is dead serious."

A phone started buzzing and Mac looked from his face to his lap where the sound was coming from. "Your phone's buzzing," Mac said the obvious, trying not to grin.

Fez's eyes darkened as he glared at the girl.

"I could fuckin' kill you right now."

Chapter Text


Mackenna Donahue was the most fearless girl i have ever met.

I remember a situation after a party. It was the middle of the night - dark, foggy and cold. Only a few street lamps gave light to the dark street we walked along.

Mac and I were walking to my house when we were followed by two boys. At first we thought it was a coincidence, like people sometimes have to go in the same direction as you, but when we intentionally walked down a super weird path and they were still behind us , we knew they wanted something from us .

I was high that night and actually in a really good mood, but when i realized that two guys, who looked a lot stronger than mac and me were after us , i felt like i sobered up straight away. Maybe that was a self-protective reaction from my body or some shit or maybe 'cause i wanted to protect us

Mac, too, was anything but sober. She wasn't wasted, but i didn't know if she even realized we were in a potentially dangerous situation.

I tried to ignore the guys behind us and grabbed Mac's arm to walk her faster. I was fucking glad Mac didn't mind and kept telling me that thanks to Slim Shady, she finally knows 4inch can rhyme with orange.

Shit was random as fuck, but at least it distracted me and got Mac ignoring the boys too, 'cause i knew how that bitch would handle that abfuck situation.

Well, that was before these assholes started yelling things like "nice ass" or "Hey baby, you think i could get in that pants with you?"

I really fucking hoped Mac wouldn't hear it but bitch was high not deaf, so yeah... she heard and she reacted just like i thought she would.

She stopped and turned to the two boys and waited a moment until the boys were closer to us . I tried to get her to keep walking but mac just nonchalantly said she'll handle it .

When the boys stopped in front of us the jet black haired Teenager checked Mac out, while the blonde did the same to me . In the light of the street lamp i could see the lust in her eyey - as if they were hungry hyenas ready to pounce on their prey or some shit like that.

The dark haired boy told Mac that her body was really hot and he knew exactly what to do with it , taking another step towards the then 15 year old Mac.

That made her giggle , she also took a step towards the boy. The guy sure thought his disgusting words worked and she was flirting with him, but i knew Mac better. I knew almost every look and every action of hers.

She looked up at him with a sweet smile and ran her index finger over the fabric of his brown hoodie and then faster than the boy could react, she cupped his cock through the fabric of his jeans pants. "Damn, i love that tiny dick of yours!" She said and laughed before grabbing my hand and turning to leave the two idiots all by themselves.

Needless to say, the guy didn't find this as funny as Mac did. He grabs her wrist and yanks her away from me then presses her hard against the street light. I wanted to step in and help Mac, but the blonde grabbed my upper arms and held me tight.

I was afraid. The guy hissed insults at Mac, getting louder with each word and there was nothing i could do .

But Mac stayed relaxed. I didn't know what it was like inside, but on the outside she seemed unafraid at all, even though the dark-haired dude shook her hard with every syllable he uttered .

Suddenly she even smiled, which seemed to confuse the guy, but it confused him even more when she held up her phone next to him. Mac told him that all she had to do was press a button and her mother, who was a police officer, would send a whole squad of police cars to her.

Of course that was a lie, but the guys didn't know that and it worked. After the blonde told his buddy he didn't need the police and stuff, the dark haired boy let go of Mac with one last angry look and they left.

While I was still shaking as we walked to my house, Mac seemed like nothing had happened. It annoyed me that she didn't say a word about the fact that we were being harassed in the street, but that only made me think even more that she is the most fearless girl i know.

"Ash, they're here." Fez called to his brother, not taking his eyes off Mac, not even when he reached between the sofa next to Mac to pull out a pistol.

Mac's lips parted slightly, she wanted to say something but didn't know what, instead she watched Fez as he hid the gun in the other couch. The fact that he expected a gun to be involved in the conversation with his guest told the girl that it probably wasn't a coffee chat, not that she thought it was, but... she didn't actually knew what she was thinking or why Fez wanted her out of the house so badly. All she thought about was that she wanted drugs.

"Mac." Fez's voice pulled her out of her thoughts. She looked at his serious face and waited for what he had to say. "The guys who are about to be here,... you don't play with guys like them. I want you to sit here and not give a fucking peep, you hear me?" In response, Mac merely nodded her head. "Aight." With that, Fez goes to the door to open it. His eyes immediately fell from his supplier to the girl standing in front of him.

"Look who i found outside your door, is that your little bitch?" Mouse asked in amusement as he held the girl by the shoulders and pushed her past Fezco and into the house.

After Mouse's business partner entered the apartment, Fez closed the door and turned to his supplier. Nah, bruh, that's like my little sister." He answered.

Rue, who had no idea what was going on and actually only came to Fez's house because she wanted some xanax or some shit, looked from Fez to Mouse when he conducted her on her shoulders in the living room. Fez quickly followed the three, if there was one thing he didn't want, it was for Rue and Mac to be alone in a room with Mouse and his business Partner.

"Oh dang Fez, another one? Also a little sister?" Mouse asked sarcastically while motioning for Rue to sit next to Mac on the couch.

Both girls looked at each other - wondered what the other one was doing here - but said nothing because of the situation.

"She's a friend." Fez said, hoping they would finally get down to business but Mouse was having way too much fun with the fact how tense Fez was.

Mac also saw how uncomfortable Fez was as he sat down on the couch across from them and felt immediately felt guilty. She was about to give him an encouraging smile, when her attention was diverted from that creepy guy.

"Well then, hello there, little sis." Mac watched as he brought Rue's hand to his lips and kissed her knuckles. "My name is Mouse. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Then his dark eyes slid to Mac. He lasciviously let his gaze slide over her tanned legs and licked his lips with a smirk. When he wanted to grab Mac's hand too, she reacted quickly and pulled her hand away from him.

"Don't even think about it." Mac hissed while looking confidently into Mouse's eye.

Glancing over at Fez i saw how tense he was. I get that, 'cause at that moment i felt like i was back in the situation with the two guys who were harassing us.

I just wanted Mac to shut up, so that what was happening there would be over quickly, but it just wasn't in Mac's nature to know when to shut up. This Mouse-Guy was creepy as fuck, but she didn't shy away from defying him. 

Bitch wasn't only fearless, but also reckless.

I didn't know Fez knew dudes like that but, you know, that's was happens when you hang out with drug dealers.

Mouse's deep chuckle filled the dim room as he rose from his kneeling position. "You're a feisty one, i fucking like that." He said before turning to his business partner who was standing at the table behind them. "Yo, Custer, toss me that bag."

Mac and Fez make brief eye contact, with Fez giving her a please-chill-and-don't-start-anything - look. Mac gave him a look that was supposed to say 'I didn't do anything', then she glanced slightly over her shoulder as Mouse placed the contents of the bag on the table.

"Alright, check it. I got 100 OP-OC 80s, 500 Xanny bars, 500 20s of Addy. I'm low on Vikes, so if you wanna cop some Vikes, you better 'em today, 'cause i got, like 50 left. I got a quad of that Cali medicinal,  and an ounce of Molly."

Yo, that's a fuck ton of drugs.

Turning my head to Mac, i saw that her eyes were on the whole shit, too. I'm even sure i could see a sparkle in her light brown eyes. After all, she's no better than me , 'cause she's also an addict.

"Custer, what's the math on that?"  Mouse asked his business partner, who was sitting on the back of the couch. Even though he wasn't touching Mac, Fez felt he was too close to the girl.

"Uh, 25, 15, 100, 35, 77 and 25... 7750."

Mac barely heard the random numbers and she didn't notice Rue looking at her or the exchange of looks between Fez and Ash, who was leaning against a wall at the living room entrance, because her full attention was still on the drugs. That was what she came to Fez for and she still wanted some, especially now that they were being served to her on a silver platter.

Fez scanned Rue and Mac to make sure they were okay. The former of the two sat tensely on the couch with her hands in her lap. Mac, on the other hand, looked like she was about to jump up and choose one of the damn candys.

Before Mac actually could do anything stupid, Fez pulled the bag of money out of his pocket with a barely visible shake of his head. He didn't like that Mac was so calm because it meant she didn't understand the situation she was in. "Here."

Mouse caught the bag and immediately threw it at Custer so he could count the money. His dark eyes fall on Mac again and as if she felt his gaze on her skin, she looked from the table to the man. He narrowed his eyes at her behavior. It impressed him that Mac wasn't shy about looking him in the eyes, it impressed him even more that he didn't see any fear or nervousness in her eyes. Little girl is a brave one... and a sexy one too.

He tore his gaze away from the beautiful brunette and turned to Fez. "Sure you don't want no fentanyl?" He asked.

Fez, who had watched the brief exchange of looks between Mac and Mous tensely, shook his head in response. "Nah, man. I'm cool off that shit." He said, straightening up a bit as Mouse steps in front of the couch, where the two teenage girls were sitting. "Too many ODs, i dont want the heat."

The Tattooed Man took note of his reply but didn't react as he sat down next to Rue. "How about you, little sis? Did you ever tried fentanyl?"

Mac squinted at Mouse, she could guess what he was getting at and was ready to intervene.

"No" Unlike Mac, Rue avoided eye contact when answering him.

Mac had never taken fentanyl, only heard of it, but the fact that Fez didn't want the drug because there are too many ODs, told her everything she needed to know.

"No, she's good, bruh." Fez said, but Mouse didn't care one bit. He ignored Fez and tucked a strand of hair behind rue's ear.

When Mac saw this, something inside her snapped. She really tried not to say anything for the sake of Fez, but seeing how uncomfortable her best friend felt about this creep, she couldn't and wouldn't accept it without a word.

"Hey, don't fucking touch her. She doesn't want your stuff so leave her alone." She spat and placed her hand protectively on Rue's.

Mouse glanced at Mac, amusement gleaming in his eyes. "What's your name, little girl?" He asked the brunette in a deep voice.

"That's none of your business." She answered in a firm voice.

That made Mouse chuckle. Tough bitch. He turned his head over his shoulder at Fez, who regrets not spearing Mac in his room. "What's her Name?"

Fez exhaled deeply while glancing at Mac. He didn't want to give his supplier any information about the girl, but he knew that if he didn't say anything, the deal wouldn't end well, so he shifted his eyes from Mac to Mouse to answer him.

"It's Mac." He said in a low tone. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the brunette roll her eyes and look away from him.

The tattooed guy nodded his head slightly and turned his attention back to Rue. "You gonna let Mac over here talk for you?"

Rue didn't know how to answer that question. She didn't know what to do at that moment at all. All she knew was that if Mac wasn't sitting next to her, she would freak out.

"I don't know." She mumbled, looking at Fez and then at Mac for any help.

"Don't look at them." Mouse said while playing with a strand of her hair again. "Look at me. You ever try it?"

Rue shook her head. She hoped that he would finally leave her alone.

Before Mac could say anything this time, Fez intervened. "Yo, for real, bruh. I don't want her fucking with that shit."

Mouse continued talking to Rue as if he hadn't heard what Fezco was saying. "You know that feeling when you came so hard, that you can't feel or hear anything?" He didn't wait for an answer from Rue, just looked at Mac with a smirk. "You know that feeling, am i right?" He ran his dark eyes over her bare legs again, licking his lip. "Yeah, you know that feeling for sure. You like that feeling?" He asked the brunette as he met her eyes.

Fez was hoping so badly that Mac would notice his eye contact to signal her to just shut up, but she either didn't notice or she just ignored it. Faster than he could react, she answered him.

"Not if it comes from a drug. I like my shit real, but not everyone has what it takes. I'm sorry for you." She gave him a mock pitying look.

While Ash had to suppress a smirk, Fez rubbed his shaved head in a stressed manner. His other hand was near the gun.

Mouse scoffed in amusement, taking the insinuation. "So you think i don't have what it takes to make you feel that shit? What do you think if i talk to your friend for a little longer..." While he was talking to Mac, he pulled something out of his jacket pocket. "...And then i'll take you with me and prove you wrong."

– "I think nothing of it." Mac didn't notice what he was doing with his hands when she answered him. She was way too much in her rage mood. "But i would think highly of it if you finally got your ass out of this apart..." Her sentence trailed of when she saw Mouse leading a knife to Rue's mouth with what she assumed was fentanyl on the tip.

Rue shuddered as the knife nearly touched her lips. "I... I'm good actually." Her voice shook, causing Mac to look uncertainly at Fez.

If Rue wasn't between her and that Mouse-Guy, she probably would have knocked the knife out of his hand, but she didn't want to put her best friend in danger.

Maybe she was too impulsive sometimes, but she would never do anything that seriously endangered people she loved.

"You don't trust me?" Mouse asked Rue with a frown.

"Yo,for real, man. She's good." Fez again tried to dissuade Mouse from giving the teenager the fentanyl, his hand even closer to the gun. If it were up to him he would have already shot his supplier 5 times in the head for what he said to Mac.

"Shut the fuck up, bitch." Mouse snapped, his eyes still on Rue, who avoided his eye contact. "Ain't nobody talking to you. Tell your big brother i'm not talking to him right know. Tell him to shut the fuck up. Come on, don't be scared. It's not gonna bite you. Come on, try it."

The room went silent for a moment. Nobody said anything, not even Mac.

"Oh, just try it." Mouse demanded again.

Rue pondered what to do, weighed her options, and looked to Fez for silent advice.

Fez barely visibly shook his head to tell her not to take that shit, while his fingertips brushed the butt of his gun, ready to pull it out to shoot between Mouse eyes.

And Mac... Mac did what made most sense to her.

As the tattooed man's hand got closer to Rue's mouth, Mac grabbed his wrist. She was silent when he raised an eyebrow at her, but brought his hand to her face before closing her lips around the knife point and and licked the fentanyl off of it. She kept her eyes on him the whole time, making his cock twitch. He hadn't seen anything that hot in a long time.

What Mac didn't notice was Rue whispering a horrified 'no' and looking at her in shock, while Fez froze, worried as Mac slumped down on the couch.

Mouse grinned and leaned over the girl, who was only half conscious. "It hits quick. You like the way it feels?"

He glanced over at Fez while running his index finger down Mac's thigh. He noticed his buyer's eyes on the girl and even now he recognized in Fez's eyes that the little one is not just a friend, as he previously claimed.

Mac tried to keep her eyes open, but her body was too relaxed, too weak from taking the fentanyl.

She barely heard Mouse's question, but she noticed how he stroked her overheated skin and tried to brush his hand away from her thigh. She didn't want to be touched by him.

The brunette mumbled something unintelligible that must have sounded to Mouse as if she were confirming his previous question, because he continued talking to the girl.

"You want a couple of patches, girl?"

Mac's mind was far too slow to think through whether it would be a good idea to take such a hard drug. She felt good. Everything was out of her mind. Nothing weighed her down. she felt free from the burdens of the day. She always wanted to feel like this, so why not?

"Yeah... Gimme that shit." Her words were slurred, but still audible to everyone in the room.

Rue's eyes widened and she looked anxiously at Fez, who watched with clenched jaw as Mouse pulled a Fentaly patch from his pocket and tucked it into Mac's waistband of her panties.

The tattooed man ran his hand down her round ass and gave Fez a smugly look. "It's cost yout three hundred." He kept his eyes on fez as he continued talking to the girl.

Reflexively, Mac wants to reach into her bra to get the money out, until she realizes she wasn't wearing any. "I don't have any money here right now." She remembered having some bills in her pocket. The remaining money from her nail visit appointment. "I only have 20 dollars." She murmured and tried to get up.

Mouse gently pushed her back onto the couch. "I said three hundred." His hand went from her ass to her thigh. His fingers stroked the smooth skin.

Fezco tensed more and more, wanting to do something but not knowing what to do without endangering either Mac or Rue. Mouse had a knife and was too close to the two girls, to risk anything. 

Mouse enjoyed the anger in Fezco's eyes. He tried not to show it, but Mouse wasn't stupid, he saw that the girl meant something to his buyer.

The brunette tried to take the patch out of her panties with errant fingers. "I don't want this stuff anymore... here, take it back."

Mouse put his hand on hers and shook his head. "I got a strikt 'no return' policy."

Fez saw his supplier's thumb slide closer and closer to her lady parts, causing his own hand to slide to the gun between the padding. "Yo, Mouse, let me pay for it, man." He offered.

"I thought you was too good for fentanyl." Mouse replied in a pissed off tone before turning his head to his business partner. "What is it? Everybody changing their motherfucking minds on me?"

Fezco took the opportunity when Mouse shifted his attention from him to Custer and reached between the couch cushions, but as soon as his hand gripped the butt of the gun, Mouse spoke to him. "She can't offered it, she gonna have to find another way of paying me. Straight up." He said without leaving any room for objections.

Mac felt how he continued to stroke her thigh and that in combination with his words made her realize what he wanted despite her foggy brain. "I'm not a fucking whore." She tried to keep her voice as loud as possible but knew she was failing because she felt like she was about to fall asleep.

Mouse grinned at Fez, but his attention remained on Mac. "How about the fentanyl is a gift and you just say thank you, huh?"

Everyone in that living room knew what Mous meant by that. He didn't want a verbal thank you, that was clear as he slowly ran his fingers between Mac's thighs.

"Yo, man, just let me pay for it." Fez was getting desperate. He wanted Mouse to take his dirty fingers off Mac. Everything in him screamed to kill the bastard, but instead he reached into his pocket and pulled out some money. "I got the money right here. Here." Fez got up and held out the money to his supplier.

Mouse took the bills and counted them. "Dang, lover boy must love you. It's gonna cost you six hundred now, man." He said without looking at Fez.

"Damn, you gonna do me like that?" Fezco scoffed, but counted out another three hundred dollars from his money.

"Yeah, i'm gonna do you like that, 'cause you spoiled my fun with this little one here." His hand tapped Mac's thigh. "Straight up. Lemme get that shit." He snatched the money from Fez's hand and counted it again, while Fez sat back on the couch looking at Mac. She seemed to have fallen asleep, at least he hoped so.

"It's always a pleasure doing business with you." Mouse said amused before leaning towards Mac's ear. "And you, baby, if you need more of the good stuff you can come to me. You don't even need money to pay, we'll find another way for sure." With that he ran his hand over Mac's skin one last time before standing up.

The brunette didn't answer, just tried to push him away far too late. Her reflexes were really fucked up at that point.

Fez stayed in his seat and watched Mouse and Custor walk past Ash. When he heard the door close, he went to Mac and knelt down. while one hand rested on her cheek, he pulled the fentanyl out of the waistband of her panties with the other and pulled his shirt that she wore further down.

When he felt a weak hand try to push his off Mac's cheek, he looked into the girl's face. "Don't touch me." She slurred.

Fez knew she must think it was Mouse touching her, so he brushed a sweaty strand of hair out of her face. "Hey Mac, it's me. He's gone... he's gone. " He said soothingly.

A smile formed on Mac's face as she tried to open her eyes. "Fez.." Her hand grips his wrist with as much strength as she can muster. "...You can touch me... just like yesterday. Here." She wanted to slip his hand under her shirt, but before she could do that, he gently pulled his hand out of her grasp.

Neither of them noticed the puzzled looks from Ash and Rue after Mac's words.

"Mac, we can't do this, can you try to stand up for me?" Fez asked.

The brunette frowned and shook her head slightly, making Fez sigh softly before taking the comforter from the armrest of the couch and covering Mac with it.

With one last look at the almost asleep girl, he got up and went to Ash to hand him the small sachet of fentanyl. "Go flush that shit down the toilet. And go grab the narcan, just in case." He said to his little brother.

As Ash went to the bathroom, Fez returned to Mac to check on her. There were a few beads of sweat on her forehead and her skin was warm, but her breathing was even, which calmed him.

Rue watched skeptically as Fez gently stroked her best friend's cheek. She had never seen the drug drealer so concerned.

She herself was also afraid for Mac. The moment the girl took the fentanyl, she prayed that despite being often a cunt and mean to her mum, Mac would survive that night. she practically begged for it.

She found it odd to see Fez similarly concerned - seeing Mac in his apartment, on his couch, struck her as odd. Rue was too distracted by the Mouse-situation to realize how strange it all was, but as the adrenaline slowly faded away, she wanted to know what was going on.

She cleared her throat to get Fezco's attention. As he looked at her, she began to speak. "What's Mac doing here? How does she even know where you live?"

Noticing the odd tone of Rue's question, Fez sighed. "We hang out the weeknd.  Watched movie's and stuff like that."

Ash came back from the bathroom,  placed the narcan on the coffee table and settled into the armchair.  His eyes were on Mac, but he knew Fez had in under control.
 
"You guys hanging out together? since when? I...i mean why?" Rue didn't know exactly why this fact threw her so off track but she didn't like the idea of her two friends doing who knows what. "Did you guys fuck?" She asked almost disgusted.

"Yo, i don't wanna hear that shit." Ash complained, but no one paid any attention to him.

"Rue, nobody here had..." Fez sighed again. "We were just watching movies, aight?" Fez didn't know what Rue's problem was, but he didn't want to have this conversation. That was the reason why he wasn't completely honest. He didn't have sex with Mac, but they did make out, something he didn't want to tell Rue, especially when she's acting like that.

"Just watched movies? Then why is she half naked and why did she want you to touch her... again?" Rue asked angrily, but didn't give Fezco a chance to answer. "You know what? I don't wanna know that shit. I'm outta here" Rue got up and started to leave the living room, but was stopped by Fez's words.

"Rue wait a sec. Mac said her day sucked, what happened?" He asked. 

She knew immediately why Mac said that to him and sighed. Yes, she was mad at Fez and also at Mac, but that didn't mean she wasn't sorry about what happend at school.

"Someone showed a sex tape of her in front of the whole school." She mumbled.

Ash's eyes widened at Rue's statement, while Fez rubbed his face in stress. "Shit, do you know who did that?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "She attacked Nate, so it probably was him."

Fez closed his eyes for a short moment. Mac didn't tell him much about Nate, actually just that he's her ex-boyfriend, but that's enough for him to think he could have done something like that. Motherfucker.

When Fez said nothing, Rue cleared her throat again. "Uh... grab her phone and text her mum that she's staying at Maddy's." With that, Rue left the apartment angry, but also with a bad conscience.

She should have taken the fentanyl. She should stay with Mac and be there for her, especially after the sex tape thing. She should take care of her.

But she couldn't. 

Notes:

Author's note; I dunno why, but somehow i struggled with this chapter. I wanted to bring Mac into this situation without her just sitting next to Rue and looking beautiful. I hope i made it.

What do we think of Rue? Do we understand her? Should she have stayed there? Lemme know. (:

Chapter Text


The night Mac was taking the fentanyl, i was looking for a distraction, 'cause this shit is the one thing that make you forget about our woes. That and drugs. 

Luckily i had some Xanax at home. there wasn't much left, that's why i went to Fez - i needed more. 

Anyways, in that moment i took what was there, but i still needed a distraction. 

As i walked the dark streets of East Highland, i knew only one person could distract me.

Jules.

When Mac woke up, it took her a moment to realize where she was. The room was in semi-darkness, only the rising sun, which shone through the curtain, let her see the furniture around her. Realizing she wasn't in her room, she reflexively looked to the other side of the bed.

Nothing. 

As if Mac needed reassurance that this side of the bed was really empty, she reached out and ran her fingertips over the soft fabric of the sheets. 

Still nothing. 

She carefully sat up and tried to remember what had happened the previous night. There was a deep frown on the girl's face as she pieced together fragments of a few images from her memory. 

She actually took fentanyl.

Mac didn't regret it because she knew at what price she had done it. She'd rather go on a hell of a drug trip than allow something like this to happen to Rue.

To her surprise, there was no hellish drug trip. Yes, she was tired, way too relaxed to move, and had weird dreams, but otherwise she was fine. She felt good. Maybe the amount wasn't enough, or her body was already used to drugs, even though she'd never taken anything like fentanyl before.

Her eyes fell on the bedside table. Her telephone was there, with a glass of water next to it. She slid to the other side of the bed and reached for the glass to take a few sips before putting it back half full and picking up her phone. 

The clock on her display told her it was twenty to five in the morning which meant she had slept for almost 12 hours. Despite this, she still felt a bit weak and tired. 

Mac unlocked her phone to read the messages she'd received. In addition to the messages from Maddy and Kat, the message from her mother catched her eye. She opened the message with her thumb and drew her eyebrows together. There are messages she never wrote. Rue must have written to my mom that i'm staying at Maddy's. Or maybe it was Fez? 

No matter who it was, she was grateful for it because it saved her a lot of talking about how to behave around parents as a teenage girl. Even if Ophelia was hardly ever there for Mac, she made sure that certain rules were applied. Telling her mom if she was staying at a friend's house was one of those rules.

I'm fine with that.

i have an 8 o'clock appointment tomorrow morning, which will probably last until the evening, money is on the kitchen counter. 

Mac couldn't help but roll her eyes at her mother's message. After all these years in which the relationship between mother and daughter fell apart more and more, her mom still believed that money was the solution. 

At that moment Mac didn't care. She closed i-message and threw the blanket aside before getting up and taking the blanket to drape it around her shoulders. 

Mac carefully walked down the hall towards the living room. It was dark, but she could hear the sound of the TV playing. 

When she got to the living room, a smile formed on her face at what she saw. Fez sat on the sofa, his bent arm propping up his head. the position looked very uncomfortable, especially for his neck, but she didn't want to wake him up, it was still very early and after what he did for her he must be pretty tired.

The brunette wrapped the blanket a little tighter around her body as her gaze fell on the television screen. there was a film she was not familiar with. She put her phone down on the coffee table and grabbed the remote control to stop the flickering in the room. 

After turning off the TV, Mac lay down on the couch. She carefully positioned her head in Fezco's lap. He stirred a little in his sleep but didn't wake up. She looked into Fez's sleeping face. He looked so relaxed and peaceful. His eyelashes rested on his cheeks, his freckles rested against his fair skin and his thin lips were slightly parted. In Mac's eyes, he wasn't just attractive, he was beautiful. He looked out of this world. 

––

She had no intention of falling asleep again, but when she is awakened by a touch on her hair, she knows that's exactly what happened.

Mac's eyes fluttered open and she grinned as she looked into Fez's now awake face. "Good morning." She said in a sleepy voice. 

Fez continued to stroke her curls as a small smile spread across his face. When he woke up and felt weight on his thighs, his first impulse was to get up, but when he saw Mac lying there he didn't move an inch and watched the girl. Glad nothing bad happened from taking the fentanyl, he started playing with her spiral curls and thought about last night. 

After Rue left, he complied with her request to write Mac's mother. He felt weird just going through her phone like that, especially when he saw messages from her friends, but he knew it was better to let her mother know she was sleeping at Maddy's. 

Having done that, he had carried the sleeping teenage girl to his bed. Fez sat next to her for a while to make sure she was okay. Guilt filled him as he watched Mac wriggle in his sheets, plagued by drug trip dreams. With a sigh he got up and got a rag from the bathroom, which he held under cold water, to dab the beads of sweat from Mac's forehead. 

Before Fezco left his room, he put a glass of water on his bedside table and put her cell phone next to it. With a last look to the window to see if the curtains are drawn, he closed the door behind him.

Fez would have preferred to stay with her all night to make sure she got a good night's sleep, but he wasn't about to push her boundaries. Yeah, they made out, but that didn't mean Mac would be cool with them sleeping in one bed together.

He was a little surprised that she had snuck out of his room at night to lie down with him. Not that he would complain.

"Morning Ma, did you sleep well?" Fez asked while brushing a light brown lock of hair away from her face.

Mac closed her eyes in relish before looking back at him and nodding her head. "But i would have slept better if you had been with me." She added nonchalantly. 

Fez's mouth lifted slightly at her words. He liked that Mac said what she thought without beating around the bush. "Believe me, i wanted to stay with you, but..." –

"Yeah, i know." Mac interrupted him with a warm smile. She had already noticed from the time they spent together that Fez was someone who respected women and didn't take every opportunity to get into a girl's panties. 

It made him different from all the other guys Mac has met. 

Fez nodded his head and wrapped a strand of her hair around his finger. "How you feeling, ma?" 

The brunette was touched that Fez was so caring and interested in her well being. She didn't get that feeling very often. Especially not from men around her. So far, Fergus was the only one she thought would ask out of genuine interest how she was doing. 

"I'm tired but otherwise i'm fine. I mean, it wasn't the best experience j've had with drugs, but whatever. I did it for the team." She answered with a shrug. 

Fez knew that by 'team' she meant Rue, and while he understood why Mac had taken the fentanyl, he felt guilty. He should never have let it come to this. 

Just as he was about to apologize for what happened, Mac turned sideways to get a more comfortable position on his lap. He tensed slightly when her head touched his cock, which was already awake thanks to the morning wood. 

"Careful baby." He warned in a low tone. It felt so natural to call her 'Baby' that Fezco didn't even realize he had called her that. 

He tried to adjust his sweatpants in his crotch as unobtrusively as possible, but his inconspicuousness wasn't inconspicuous enough, because his attempt to tilt her head a little to one side combined with his almost hoarse warning told Mac what was going on. 

Mac grinned and got up so she could kneel with both knees beside next to Fez. She met his eyes only briefly before she put her hand on his cheek and pulled him in for a kiss. 

Fezco reached a hand behind her neck to deepen the passionate kiss. He gently bit Mac on her full lower lip, sliding his tongue into her mouth.

His cock twitched at the surprised moan Mac let out, that she ran one of her hands down his torso didn't help him keep his head clear. Still, he somehow managed to grab her wrist before she could slip into his sweatpants.

Mac grinned against his lips. She found it amusing that he tried to stop her, even though they both know he enjoying her touch and more than evidently wanted more. 

Kissing down his chin, down his neck to his ear, she freed her hand from his grasp. "Let me help you with that." Mac whispered seductively as her hand cupped his cock through the fabric of his pants. 

Fez wanted nothing more than her to help him, but he didn't want to take advantage of the situation. He didn't know how much of the fentanyl was still in her blood, but then again... she kissed him the day before and she was sober by then.

So maybe she did what she did because she really wanted to and not because some drug made her do it. 

He was snapped out of his thoughts as Mac slipped her hand inside his sweatpants and boxers and massaged his hard member.

His head fell back on the sofa. "Oh fuck." He groaned with his eyes closed trying to process what Mac was doing. Her hand was pleasantly warm and her fingers wrapped perfectly around his shaft. Her movements were smooth and consistent. She slowly stroked him up and down, her pinky touching his balls as she did so, sending an extra shock through Fez's body. 

Mac wanted more. She wanted to see what she was doing to him and how his dick reacted to it, so she tried to push his clothes down while continuing to nibble on Fezco's neck. 

Realizing she was having trouble doing this, Fez removed his hands from her body and pulled down his sweatpants and boxer shorts a little. Then he put one of his hands back on her round ass and kneaded the soft flesh. He turned his head and captured Mac's lips in another heated kiss. 

While his one hand wrapped around her neck to maintain dominance of the kiss, he wanted to pull Mac onto his lap with his other hand, but Mac stopped him by placing one of her hands on his chest, breaking the kiss. Fez didn't show his insecurity but looked questioningly at the girl. He thought that was what she wanted. 

Sex with him. 

But Mac had other plans.

"It's all about you." She said to him, looking into his darkened eyes. Her voice was hoarse from the crush of the passionate kiss she shared with the man in front of her. 

Mac ran her long nails up his shaft to the hem of his shirt to push it up. With one last, almost innocent look at his face, she kissed down over his chest. Her hand wrapped his cock again, making it twitch happily. Seeing his precum glistening on its tip, she gently placed her thumb on the tip and spread the warm liquid in circular motions. 

"Fuck, baby." Fez groaned hoarsely as he automatically placed his hand on the back of her head to stroke her wild curls. Just watching her hand with the long nails slide up and down his shaft would have made him cum if he hadn't pulled himself together.

The brunette grinned contentedly as she noticed the steady twitch of his cock in her hand. She kissed further down, across his stomach, enjoying the sight of his V line. While Fezco didn't have a mature six pack, he wasn't completely untrained either. He was just... well built. At least that's how Mac saw it.

Who needs Adonis when you can have Fezco? 

Mac licked her full lips in anticipation before she kissed the tip of his cock. 

"Dammit Mac." Fez let out in surprise as he felt her soft lips touch his most sensitive spot. As she encircled his tip of dick with the tip of her tongue, he tugged her hair slightly to get her to look at him. "You don't have to do this, baby." He said and brushed a strand of hair out of her face. Her eyes showed pure lust. 

Mac smiled up at him and stroked his cheek with her free hand. "I know, but I want to." With that she turned her head back to his cock and this time took it between her lips.

Fez couldn't help but let his head fall back on the couch and exhale loudly. The feel of his dick in her mouth made him see stars. Her mouth was warm, wet and tight. Mac stimulated his cock like she'd never done anything else.

With a hand wrapped around his cock, jerking him, her head popped up and down his shaft. 

Fezco's loud breathing and soft cursing and the smacking sound of Mac sucking his cock were the only sounds that could be heard in the room. Mac let out a moan every now and then. The noises Fez made sounded like music to her ears and the feel of his cock in her mouth made her panties dripping wet. 

Fez looked down and saw Mac's head bobbing up and down in a rapid rhythm. His hand slid from her ass, perfectly staged in her kneeling position, to her head. First he brushed strands of her hair aside to get a better view of what was happening between his legs, then he put his large hand on the back of her head, playing with her curls. 

"Just like that, baby." He praised as Mac took him deeper in her mouth and her hands massaged his balls. 

Fez knew how cliche that sounded, but for him it was the best blowjob he'd ever received. He didn't feel the need to tell her how to do it to please him, Mac knew it from herself. Also he didn't have to direct her head to tell her to suck faster or slower, she found the perfect tempo on her own. 

And he loved how confident Mac was in everything she did with his cock. This girl knew what she was doing and what she was doing felt amazing to him. 

He was deep in her mouth, so deep he could feel the end of her throat at the tip of his dick. At that point, Fez was a mess. His hand slid back to her ass cheek, which he squeezed harder than before, making Mac moan. He felt the heat in his body and the need to come.His chest heaved with the deep breaths he took. He knew it wouldn't be long before he reached his orgasm. 

"Mac... baby, i'm gonna cum." He grunted while trying to hold back his orgasm until Mac let his cock out of her mouth. The brunette actually lifted her head a bit so his cock came out of her mouth with a 'pop' sound, but only to give Fezco a devilish grin before she bent back over the cock and let some salvia between her lips onto the tip to drip his cock.

"Oh shit." Fez let his head fall back once more. Almost in desperation, he let his hand, which wasn't busy with Mac's well-formed ass, run over his face. He was already so sensitive that every touch seemed too much. 

Mac loved the power she had over guys when she gave them head. In that moment, she was in control and she was enjoying every single second of it. Giving Fez a blowjob was fun for her. She never took that long with other guys, which didn't mean she gave other guys worse blowjobs, it just meant she wanted to delay this moment with Fezco until he couldn't take it anymore. So she let her tongue slide slowly over his shaft. She felt every vein of his cock with the tip of her tongue, which made her moan with pleasure. 

Fez looked down and met dark brown eyes that were staring at him with lust. As if Mac was just waiting for him to watch her, she curled her lips back over his hard cock. Just the sight of it would have been enough to make him explode, but he wanted to feel that vibration again, like he felt when Mac moaned with his cock in his mouth. To elicit the sweet noise from her again, he grabbed her ass cheek and massaged the soft flesh. 

Mac loved the rough way Fezco grabbed her ass and couldn't help but moan. The vibration takes him to cloud nine. This feeling, the noises Mac made and seeing her lips slide up and down his saliva-shining shaft are too much for him.

He wanted to lift Mac off his cock so he wouldn't explode in her mouth, but the girl brushed his hand off her head and just sucked his cock faster and massaged the part that she didn't put in her mouth with her other hand.

Fez lost himself in the moment of his orgasm. all he can think about is that it feels really, really good.

It took him a moment to come back to the real world. That was overwhelming. That was overwhelming. Fez didn't know if it was because it had been a while since a girl gave him head or if it was because Mac was just more talented than any other girl that gave him a blowjob He took deep breaths in and out while staring at the white ceiling in utter satisfaction as he let his head fall onto the back of the couch. 

Mac took advantage of the moment to lick Fezco's cock clean. She gently ran her tongue along his shaft, licking the rest of his salty juice off the soft skin. She felt him shudder at her touch and grinned as she lifted her head. Her gaze met Fezco's as she wiped the corner of her mouth with her thumb, then slid her finger into her mouth to lick it clean.

"Damn, don't do that to me, baby." Fez groanded as he felt his cock react with a twitch at the sight of Mac sucking her finger like she had sucked his cock before. 

The girl giggled in response, then cupped  Fez's cheek and leaned in to kiss him. He groaned at the salty taste on his tongue and deepened the kiss. 

They both enjoyed each other's closeness and didn't want it to stop, but when a thought struck Fez, he broke the French kiss and frowned at Mac. "You didn't get any of this, let me..." He slipped his hand between her thighs, but Mac stopped him. 

"Believe me, tasting you was more than enough. Like i said, it was all about you. I had my fun." She assured him with a smile. 

It wasn't that Mac didn't want Fez fingering her, let alone fucking her, but satisfying him was enough for her at that moment. Maybe that was her way of thanking him for taking care of her last night. 

"Word?" Fez didn't want Mac to think he was getting a blowjob without getting anything in return. He also wanted to do something good for the brunette. He wanted a taste of her.

Mac chuckled lightly at his question and nodded her head. "I'm good Fez. Are you good?" 

"Damn, what kinda question is that? I'm more than good. Shit was amazing." Fez answered while pulling up his pants and boxers. "Aight, I'm going to take a quick shower, do you need anything?" 

Mac bit her lower lip with a grin and watched as Fezco rose from the sofa. She herself remained in her kneeling position. "I mean, i could keep you company." She teased. 

"Doing what exactly?" He asked with a smirk

Mac opened her mouth in mock offense. "Doing nothing. Just..." Her sentence trailed of as Fez squinted at her, the tip of his tongue between his lips. "Okay boy, keep looking at me like this and i'll give you another blowjob. So better go take a shower and have fun washing your back by yourself. While i sit here alone and longingly wait for you." She said, waving him off in a playful manner. 

Fez chuckeld. "Aight drama queen, i'll be right back." With that he put a hand around Mac's neck and leaned down to peck her lips. 

Before he left the living room, he stopped and turned back to the girl. When he saw that Mac was already looking at him, he started to speak. "I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. It shouldn't have happened, I should have..." –

"Fez hey..." When Mac had his attention, a mild smile spread across her face. "None of what happened is your fault. Let's just forget it." 

Even if Fez didn't agree, he nodded his head and went into the bathroom.

Mac didn't let her good mood take away. She was fine, gave a good blowjob and was able to forget her worries for a moment.

She happily grabbed her phone from the coffee table and settled more comfortably into the cushions. She opened up the Twitter app to see what was going on in the world while she had a little sleep marathon with fentanyl in her blood.

Little did she know that her good mood was shattered with just one post she read.

Chapter Text

The worst thing for a drug addict is not having drugs anymore. It's even worse being off of drugs when you need that shit the most.

Sometimes you feel good without drugs in your blood. You convince yourself that you're not addicted and that makes you feel like you're on top of the world.

But then...

One event is enough to bring down this self-built house of cards of lies and imagination.

For Mac, it was a post tweeted on the internet by the infamous East Highland High School profile.

For me it was the feeling of being alone.

Mac was at Fezco's and Jules traded me for dinner with her father.

At such moments you think that only drugs can help you.

"What are you doing there, Ma?" Fez asked with a touch of amusement.

After completing his morning routine of showering, brushing his teeth, and changing his clothes, Fez went back into the living room. He didn't expect to find Mac on all fours on the floor. Not that he complained at the sight in front of him. The oversized tee she wore from him only slightly covered her ass in this position, revealing her lacy underwear.

As much as he and his cock were enjoying this View, he wondered what she was doing under his coffee table.

Mac jumped at the deep voice, which almost caused her to hit herself if she hadn't pulled her head out from under the table in time. She got up and walked over to the sofa Fez was sitting on yesterday, checking between the cushions for something.

Fez, knowing the gun was still hidden there, walked towards the girl. "Whoa hey hey hey... what are you doing?"

Mac sighed and dropped the pillow in her hand back onto the couch, before she turned to Fez. "That Mouse guy gave me patches of the fentanyl, where's that?"

Fez furrowed his eyebrows. "Why do you wanna know that?" He asked, although he thought he already knew the answer.

"I just need it." Mac began scanning the living room again for the fentanyl, this time on the sofa she was sitting on with Rue, although she had checked there moments before.

Fez watched her do it for a moment and while he knew why she was looking like a mad woman for those shitty drugs, he had been hoping deep down that maybe she just wanted to get rid of the damn stuff herself. He knew that was nonsense and that she wanted the fentanyl to take it, but he wanted to know why. After a night with the drug in her blood, he didn't think she needed another boost just yet.

"Why?"

Mac immediately stopped searching the couch and looked at Fez with an skeptical expression on her face. 'Cause I wanna take it." She threw the blanket she took from Fez's bedroom into the living room back onto the couch and turned to him with her arms crossed. "So where is it?"

Fez wasn't intimidated by Mec's serious look. "We flushed it down the toilet." He answers in a nonchalant tone.

The brunette threw her arms up in annoyance. "Oh my god, great." She murmured under her breath. Her gaze swept the room, considering what to do next, before her light brown eyes landed back on the person in front of her. "Then just give me cocaine or whatever you got here."

It was Fezco who broke eye contact for a moment, looking sideways to choose his next words. he knew the teenage girl wouldn't like what he was about to say to her. "Look Mac, last night wasn't any fun shit. Anything could have happened to you..." –

"But nothing happened to me. Literally nothing! I mean, i stand here without even a scratch in front of you, don't i?" She asked rhetorically while trying to stay calm, although anger welled up in her.

"Shit yeah, but..." –

"Then give me something!" Mac's voice was demanding, as if she would not tolerate any contradiction.

Fez licked his lower lip and sniffed in annoyance. "Nah ma," He shook his head slightly. "I won't sell you drugs anymore."

Mac scoffed. "Okay Fez, you ain't funny, so stop playing and give me drugs. Now."

He knew that the only reason she was speaking to him so casually was that she wanted something she wasn't getting, but he couldn't deny that he didn't like her being so dismissive all of a sudden. But he also knew that he couldn't give in.

"Nah bruh, no more drugs for you. End of story." He replied in a tone similar to Mac's.

"End of..." The words she repeated in disbelief trailed off. "Are you kidding me right now? I'm a paying customer like everyone else who buys from you." Not knowing what else to do, she rummaged in her purse, which was by the couch, hoping to find some cocaine or something else that would make her momentarily forget what she had seen on twitter.

Fez approached her a bit but still gave her space. "I don't care about the others." He said, despite that that wasn't the truth. He didn't like selling Drugs to teenagers because he knew what that shot could do, but he just didn't have the luxury to think about what would happen to them because he had no choice, there was no other option for him. He needed the money. For his grandmother and for Ash. "But i care about you."

Mac was about to pack back the contents of her purse as she let out an amused snort. "What? 'Cause i sucked your dick? Don't be ridiculous, Fez." She gave him a cocky grin before looking around the room for her clothes. She didn't want to stay here anymore. "Where are my clothes?" She asked annoyed.

Fez closed his eyes briefly to keep his composure. This girl was too much at that moment. He went to the bathroom and took her pants and top from the clothesline and gave them to Mac afterwards.

She literally snatched the clothes out of his hands and got dressed. meanwhile, Fez tried to talk to her calmly again.

"Rue told me what happened at your school yesterday. I'm sorry for that..." –

"It's nothing." She said while her attention rested on the button of her jeans so she could fasten the button, deliberately taking a little time so as not to see Fez's pitying look. "It's just sex tape. You can see it on Twitter." She added as she picked up her phone from the sofa and walked over to Fezco to hold it out to him.

Fez took the phone and held it in his hand. "I don't wanna see that shit, Ma." His free hand cupped her cheek as they locked eyes. He felt her lean into his touch and let his thumb caress her soft skin. "I want you to feel better."

Mac looked up at him from under her lashes as she gently placed her hand on his. "Then give me something."

Fez ran his eyes down her face while appearing to consider her words. In truth, however, he admired her beauty before shaking his head. "I can't."

Mac dropped her hand and snatched her phone from Fezco's hand before she turned and grabbed her bag. "Alright, if you can't, i'll find someone who can. Someone who doesn't get any stupid feelings about me for giving him head." She spat as she slipped on her shoes.

Fez didn't want to fight. Hating disharmony and doing a lot to keep an argument from escalating, he walked up to Mac and grabbed her elbow. "Mac."

– "What?" She hissed as she turned to face him.

Fez saw her scowl and he felt how much she tensed. She looked like a wild animal ready to fight.

A natural defense, because Mac never learned anything else. Dealing with emotions wasn't her forte. For Mac, dealing with emotions meant being angry and letting that anger out, or taking drugs to forget all feelings. Dealing with her emotions and negative thoughts was out of the question for the teenager.

When Fez still didn't say anything after a few seconds, just stared at her, she tore herself from his grip and left the apartment without another word.

Fez let out a deep breath after hearing the door slam. 

Just a moment later, he heard another door open before footsteps can be heard in the hallway.

Ash must have been woken up by the noise the two were making from their discussion because he plodded into the living room, rubbing his eyes and looked far too tired to be awake just yet.

"Damn it's six in the morning, why are your asses so loud? I could have easily slept another fucking hour." The boy grumbled as he looked around the living room and realized that the loud bang he heard before was the apartment doors because Mac had left.

Although Ashtray was itching to ask why Fez and Mac were arguing, he didn't ask, instead he walked towards the chair and flopped down in it.

While he didn't show it off like normal people probably do, Fezco's well-being was important to him. He knew he liked the girl more than a little, last night had made that clear. Sure, Fez took care of him, his grandmother, or Rue if he had to, but Mac was different. She wasn't family, Fez only knew her a few days and yet he took care of Mac like she was one of the most important things in his life. And that's exactly how he looked at her - like she was important to him.

Not that Ash knew anything about the love shit, but he had eyes in his head to see how the two interacted and he also saw the stressed look on Fezco's face as he entered the living room. Fez wasn't generally the type to argue, but there was something else in his mood this time. Ash just couldn't figure out what it was, so he let it go. The two were old enough to sort out their shit. He had other worries, like getting through the school day without falling asleep in the middle of class. He already knew that he would fail but who the fuck cares.

He just hoped that whatever was going on with them would be cleared up quickly because he liked Mac's food that she prepared for them, especially her casseroles were awesome. He didn't want to miss that shit anymore.

Yeah and maybe he liked her company too. Just a wee bit.

"Sorry bro, my bad." Fez apologized to the boy. "Do you want some for breakfast?" Without waiting for an answer, Fez left the living room.

As Ash heard rumblings coming from the kitchen, he sat back with a sigh and and rubbed his eyes again.

Damn, must grow up suck.

––

Meanwhile Mac had arrived at home. Luckily for her, her mother had already left for her appointment with her client, so she was spared being asked why she was coming home at this time instead of going to school with Maddy.

Of course, Mac had already prepared an excuse just in case but her talent for lying perfectly wasn't needed this time.

Mac had about an hour and a half before she had to drive to school and she made full use of the time she had to get ready.

Not the typical 'i'm getting ready for school', which often just meant putting on an oversized hoodie or t-shirt or a two-piece suit because Mac was too lazy for anything else in the morning, but more like 'yeah,  a sex tape starring me got leaked but i'm still here and i look hot as hell - ready for school'. That was the vibe Mackenna wanted to create for the day.

If Nate tried to create a walk of shame for her out of the school hallways, she would cross it in a ravishing outfit and graceful walk.

Fuck him and everyone else trying to destroy a woman's self esteem.  Mac thought as she took one last look in the large mirror in her entryway before she left the house.

After Mac got home from Fezco, the first thing she did was take a shower, hoping to wash away her guilty conscience.

As soon as the brunette was on her way home she felt sorry for how she behaved towards Fezco and what she said to him. The fact that Cam'Ron's song "Hey Ma" was blasting out of their car speakers didn't help Mac feel any better. It just reminded her of what a ungrateful bitch she was, even though he probably spent half the night tending to her druggy ass.

After the shower, Mac went about her after-shower routine. She lightly blow-dried her hair so her curls didn't take forever to dry, she brushed her teeth and put lotion on her body. After she was done with that, she sat down at her vanity in a silk coat and applied some make up - just a little concealer, bronzer, rough and lip gloss. The focus should rather be on her outfit.

The brunette opted for a pink ombre style dress. It had spaghetti straps and fell loosely to mid-thigh. The special thing about this dress was that it had a slit that went almost to her most intimate area. Everything important was covered, of course, but it left a lot of room for imagination. It wasn't Mac's most seductive dress, but she liked it, especially in combination with her high spiral sandals. Slipping into these was a little awkward, but worth it. Mac was happy with what she saw in the mirror at the end. Her fur school bag would have ruined the vibe of the outfit, so the girl opted for her real pearls and scarf decor baguette bag in a soft pink, which matched both the dress and the same-colored heels.

"We wear pink on Wednesdays." She heard Karen's voice from the movie Mean Girls say in her head.

It was only tuesday, but who cares?

––

Rue was at school quite early that day. She couldn't stand it any longer at home and she also wanted to talk to Jules and apologize for her hasty run off the day before. the blonde accepted her apology, even though she didn't understand why Rue was acting so weird.

Rue's eyes fell on Lexi who was walking at a hurried pace towards her sister who was standing at a bench on the school grounds with Maddy and BB. She handed Cassie a book and they exchanged a few words.

Mac's absence from the girls' group reminded Rue of what happened last night and she wasn't surprised Mac didn't come to school.

Just as she was finishing her thought, the song '1,2 step' by Ciara and Miss Elliot filled the school grounds and a signature pink glittery Rangerover parked in one of the parking lots.

Everyone at East Highland High knew who was going to get out of that vehicle, and yet everyone watched closely as the car's door opened and a perfectly styled Mac stepped out.

Her face was turned towards the school building as she removed her skinny rectangle sunglasses in one smooth motion. Then she put one leg in front of the next so that her hips gently swayed from right to left. She held her purse in the crook of her arm while her hand held her closed sunglasses. The only sound that could be heard at that moment was the clicking of their high heels, the students were so intent on following Mac's model walk to school that they forgot her previously conversations.

Rue looked around and noticed that apart from a few dismissive looks from jealous girls, everyone else was looking at Mac in admiration. One who wasn't thrilled at all was Nate - like usual. He generally hated it when Mac or Maddy dressed like whores. While he liked what he saw, he knew every other dick felt the same way.

Rue grinned to herself when she saw the scowl on Nate's face. He tried to humiliate her with a sex tape plus a fucking lie and she got her little revenge by just being herself. Rue couldn't help but be proud of her best friend.

Guys, Gals, and Non-Binary Pals; the princess is here, she's Mackenna.  Rue thought, or how Jules called it; "Wow."

––

Mac felt good as she walked down the school hallway. She'd be lying if she would sayong she wasn't a tiny bit excited when she got out of her car, but the looks from the students gave her the confidence she needed.

She was aware that some stupid people would still be talking about what was being shown in the school cafeteria yesterday, but at least she didn't show how unsettled she was because of that. Not the fact that she was seen naked and having sex, but what Nate made of that video was what still hurt Mac.

When she got to her locker, the school corridor was slowly filling up with more students.  Mac ignored what was happening around her like she ignored everything when she walked into the building.  She wasn't mad at her friends - why should she be? She just didn't want to hear how sorry they were for what happened. Mac hated pity. It was often associated with the ridiculous, and she was anything but ridiculous.

Much to her dismay, she wasn't spared for long from exactly what she didn't want, because as she was about to safely store her sunglasses in her locker and take out the books for the first lesson, Maddy's voice came from behind her.

"Hey bitch, you ate that fucking walk to school." Complimented the Latina.

"Yeah, like, are you going to a party after school that we don't know about?" BB asked sarcastically about the very short dress Mac was wearing.

"All life is a party, isn't it?" The brunette said while continuing to search for a specific book in her locker. "So why not dress like that?" she added in the same monotonous voice.

the Brooke's-girl let her red cherry lollipop out of her mouth with a loud 'pop' as she exchanged look with Maddy. The latina was sorry for what her on/off boyfriend had done, even if she could understand Nate's intention minimally, because after all he was betrayed by Mac in their relationship.

Maddy never thought that the reason they broke up was because Mac cheated on him. She figured it was because Nate could be quite an asshole at times and Mac didn't put up with his shit anymore.

But it made sense, because that's probably why Mac never wanted to talk about breaking up with Nate. Who likes to admit that you cheated on your partner? Nonetheless, Maddy found it excessive that over a year later he leaked a sex tape of her cheating on him. Shouldn't he be long over it? Also, Mac was her friend and she didn't want to see her sad.

Little did she know that not only was Nate's lie that he created the reason for her bad mood, but also the argument the brunette had with Fez that morning. And yeah, also the fact that she still had nothing that would make all those feelings go away aka fucking drugs.

Suddenly she remembered how she got drugs before; Maddy or Rue. Mostly from Rue as she always got money from Mac to bring her something, but Maddy also shared what she had for a few bills.

Mac turned to the Latina, but before she could say anything, Cassie's voice suddenly came from beside them.

"Hey Mac, i'm so sorry about the porn video, but at least you're not the only girl who was recorded getting fucked doggystyle by a boy." The blond started her sentence with a pout and ended it with a smile.

Mac didn't believe her expression of empathy, she was probably just glad that none of the boys on the football team talked about what kind of a whore she was, now that their attention was on the sex tape. Mac wasn't a fan if slut shaming but she hated that Cassie had the audacity to fake her sympathy and wanted to tell her lying ass to fuck off, but the second part of the blonde's sentence made her frown at Maddy and BB.

"What is she talking about?" Mac asked skeptically.

Maddy rolled her eyes and then gave the blonde a pointed look. Maddy hasn't said anything yet because she wasn't sure if Mac had heard about it, but by the looks of it, that wasn't the case.

"Girl, didn't you see the video? It was sent to everyone." BB replied before popping the candy back into her mouth. 

"Uh, it's nothing special tho. It's just a sex tape of a girl who looks a bit like Kat." The Latina tried not to make a big deal out of it while she ignored the are-you-serious-looks from the BB and Cassie. The three girls knew it was her friend in that video, but when Kat said it wasn't her, then it wasn't her.

Mac heard about it for the first time, although she had checked her phone in the morning, she had ignored all text messages except for her mother's.

The brunette looked around the school hallway for her friend but couldn't see her so she looked back at Maddy. "Is she okay?"

Knowing how she herself felt after the leaked video, Mac could well imagine how Kat about going through the same thingthing, especially because she didn't have the same confidence as Mac, but was constantly plagued by self-doubt.

"Yeah,... i think so. I mean, you don't even recognize her. Maybe she really isn't the girl in the video. It could be any girl, right?" Maddy asked the other two girls, hoping they would confirm what she was saying. Everyone knew how protective Mac was of her friends. Maddy didn't want to worry her any more than she already was.

"Probably." BB said with a shrug.

"I doubt it, but..." Maddy's stern look makes Cassie change her sentence. "Yeah, it most definitely wasn't Kat. It could literally be anyone." She ended way too effusively.

Mac sighed. "I'll talk to her later." she said before turning her attention to Maddy. "Hey, do you have bon bons or something? My throat hurts and i don't have anything right now that could help."

Of course, Maddy immediately understood what Mac meant and rummaged in her purse for the small packet with the two pills before secretly putting them in Mac's hand.

Relieved that she had Maddy's back, she gripped the lucky-maker tighter. "Thanks girl, i'll buy you new ones later."

A code for I'll give you the money later. It was more suspicious
to dig out your wallet and take out money to give to someone than to casually put a small packet in someone else's hand, so Mac didn't risk anything and would later pay Maddy the money without being disturbed by nosy snitches.

"Don't worry, i got you. How about we skip PE? I don't feel like sweating today." Maddy groaned dramatically. 

Mac thought that was a great idea. She didn't have any gym clothes with her anyway, and she wanted to use the time to talk to Maddy about what happened between her and Fez. She actually intended to talk to Rue about it, but she was probably getting to know Jules further. Mac didn't want to get in the way of her best friend just because she was in a little emotional turmoil.

Mac smiled at the Latina. "Yeah, sounds go..." –

"Will the following students please come to the principal office Nathaniel Jacobs and Mackenna Leilani Donahue." A female voice spoke from the intercom. "I repeat, will the following students please come to the principal office Nathaniel Jacobs and Mackenna Leilani Donahue."

Nate and Mac locked eyes immediately. Their lockers weren't very far apart. They liked that back when they were a couple because it meant they were never apart, but Mac hated it now. She constantly felt his eyes on her neck.

They saw in each other's eyes that the other knew why they should come to the principal office. There was only one reason for this.

Mac turned away with a sigh and closed her locker door. "Why the fucking full names." She murmured while she twisted the numbers on the padlock on her locker.

"It must be because of the porn video thing." Cassie whispered as if she had revealed a state secret.

"Duh." Mac couldn't help but roll her light brown eyes. "See you bitches later."

With that, she pushed past Cassie, who was half blocking her path, and headed toward the office. She ignored Nate and his boys, who stared after her as she walked past them, as well as the other students' gazes. Pretty much everyone knew why these two of all people were summoned to the principal office and everyone wanted to know what the outcome of the upcoming conversation was.

So did Rue and Jules, who also heard the announcement through the intercom.

––

When Mac arrived at the office, the secretary directed her straight to the principal's room, where Principal Hayes was already waiting for her.

Surprised, he straightened his tie when he saw the teenager. He didn't expect to see the young girl in such an outfit. He cleared his throat as he rose from his office chair to gesture with his hand for the brunette to sit on one of the chairs in front of his desk.

"Hello Mackenna, it's always a pleasure to see you. Ahh and there's Nate, glad you came too, please sit down." Principal Hayes said in his formal voice before sitting himself back in his office chair and opening a folder in front of him.

Mac crossed one leg over the other and rested her hands in her lap. That was the moment she realized she was still holding the pills in her fist.

"Alexa, play 'stupid hoe' by Nicki Minaj." Her inner voice mocked, while Mac clenched her fist tighter around the drugs. Not me sitting in the principal's office holding two pink pills engraved with a heart in my damn hand. She thought.

"I found out that there was an incident in the cafeteria at this school yesterday. An unpleasant  incident to be a bit more precise." Principal Hayes cleared his throat again. Do any of you two want to tell me something about this? "

Silence.

None of the teenagers wanted to talk about it. Mac didn't say anything because she didn't understand why she should repeat what happened in the cafeteria when Hayes obviously knew what happened. And Nate said nothing because he didn't want to reveal anything that would convict him as the perpetrator.

The director nodded his head in a dismissed manner. "Maybe i need to give you some motivation, we won't be leaving this office until this incident is resolved." He warned.

Mac sighed annoyed, she really had other problems than dealing with what happened yesterday, like the drugs in her hand, for example.

But she didn't want to spend all day sitting around in the principal's office, especially not with her ex-boyfriend, who was to blame for them being called into the office in the first place.

"A sextape i'm on was leaked." Mac said nonchalantly. "But it's all good, it's all water under the fucking bridge." She added, hoping that she could leave the office asap. Principal Hayes cleared his throat and raised one of his dark eyebrows sternly. "Under the not fucking bridge, sorry 'bout that." She corrected herself as she realized her mistake.

Director Hayes sighed deeply before glancing at the folder in front of him. "The coach told me that after this video ended, you attacked Nate. Why did you do that? Do you think he was the one who played it?"

I not only believe that, i actually know it. 'Cause contrary to what Nate would have everyone else believe, it was he who was seen with her on said video but unfortunately, you couldn't see his face. The brunette thought cynically. 

"No."

Nate's head almost rolled off his shoulders for turning it towards Mac so quickly. He was nervous as fuck because he knew what was in store for him if his ex girlfriend told the truth and was believed. Damn, they could kick him off the football team. His father would give him hell.

"No?" Principal Hayes also seemed confused. "Then why did you attack him?" He asked with serious interest.

"I thought it was Nate who leaked the video, but i was wrong. It wasn't him."

The teenage boy didn't know why Mac was lying for him, but in that moment he was more than grateful for that.

Why Mac lied was simple; she wasn't a snitch. Snitches get stitches and she couldn't see blood, so no snitch move from her. Of course there were exceptions, for example, when she could witness a crime for which the perpetrator should be punished, but she could handle Nate by her own. She didn't need anyone to punish him.

Principal Hayes didn't seem to  believe her, but he had no choice but to accept what she was saying. "Alright, do you have any idea who it was?"

Mac shook her head slightly. "No."

The man turned to the boy, who hadn't said anything yet. "How about you Nate, any ideas?"

Nate shook his head as well. "No, but whoever did this should receive an avenged punishment."

It was solely due to Mac's acting talent that she didn't burst out laughing. Nate Jacobs was something else.

"Don't worry about it, i'll take care of it." Principal Hayes assured as he leaned back in his chair and looked back and forth between the two teenagers. "Nate, you're free to go."

Mac got up out of reflex but stopped when she realized that Hayes hadn't spoken to her. She was about to sit down again but then something happened that she wanted to avoid so bad. In her haste, she dropped the small packet of pills.

Both her gaze and Nate's went in the direction of the drugs lying on the floor.

"Shit." She muttered

"Was what that?" Hayes asked curiously as Mac was about to crouch down to pick up the Molly.

Her eyes widened in panic as the man got up and walked around his table. If she were to pick up the package now, he would want to know what was in her hand, so that wasn't an option.

"Uh nothing,... just." –

"It was just my gum." Before Hayes could see what actually fell to the ground, the teenage boy planted his foot on it and bent to retrieve a pack of gum from his half-open backpack to hold it up.

Mac let out a sigh of relief as her principe nodded and sat back in his office chair. Her eyes fell on Nate, who had stood up in the meantime and gave her a wink before leaving the office.

Still a little nervous about almost getting caught with MDMA, Mac sat back in her chair as well.

"I want to talk to you about two things. I'm sure you know yourself that this isn't the first time you've been noticed negatively, even if you are not to blame for our reunion this time, it is a fact that you have again attacked a student. I don't know where all your anger is coming from, but maybe you should talk to someone about it." The man suggested to the young girl.

Mac knew what he meant by 'somebody' and twisted her face. "I have friends for stuff like that, thank you very much." She answered in a slightly bitchy tone.

"Friends are a great thing, but sometimes you need professional help, so i suggest you take our school's anger management class. I think that would help you deal with your emotions better. You are young and..."–

"Okay hang on a sec." She couldn't help but scoff in disbelief. "I must have misheard, anger management class? That's a joke, isn't it?"

Hayes sighed and rested his clasped hands on the table. "No Mackenna, this is no joke. I think this is a really important thing, otherwise i'll have to inform your mother and i can't imagine you would like that, so i think you need to accept my offer. Take the anger management class and see what comes of it." He spoke in a calm but determined voice.

Mac rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. "Whatever. What's the other thing you wanted to talk to me about?" She brunette asked bored, because she really didn't feel like being in this office anymore.

"Oh, right." He cleared his throat, not knowing how the teenage girl would react to what he had to say, but he felt it was important to bring up the subject. Mac frowned at her principal's renewed nervousness. "Well, i don't think you dress appropriately for school. Maybe..." –

Mac interrupted the man with a scoff. "Excuse me? What the hell are you talking about? We don't have a fucking dress code at school, if we did we'd all wear school uniforms, but we don't, so i'm allowed to wear whatever i want."

Principal Hayes put his hands flat on the table and closed his eyes for a moment, while he took a deep breath. "Please watch your language, Mackenna." She just rolled her eyes again. "Yes, you're right, in theory you're allowed to wear whatever you want, but in an institution like school, it could make others feel distracted. Maybe guys would treat you differently if you dressed properly."

– "Wait a fucking moment. Who could be distracted by my outfits?" While her principal's tone is empathetic, Mac is upset that he has the audacity to tell her how to dress. She unfolded her arms and leaned forward a bit.

"Teacher." the man answered while raising his hands as if the answer was obvious. "Or other students. Many of you are going through puberty and..." –

"So it's my fault when pubescent students or your teachers haven't enough self-control?" There was venom dripping in her tone because that was something that drove her nuts. Mac rose from her chair and adjusted her purse in the corner of her arm. "Wow, that's a really fucking low blow." With that, the brunette left the office angrily. She ignored Hayes' attempt to explain himself as well as the secretary's startled look as Mac rushed past her.

The temperamental girl was so mad that she didn't pay attention to where she was walking which resulted in her bumping into someone. She would have fallen after bouncing off a hard chest, but two strong hands held her steady.

"Careful baby."

Mac didn't have to look up to know who the deep voice belonged to, but she did it anyways to give Nate a pointed look. "Don't call me that, asshole." She pulled out of his grasp and pushed past him to walk down the empty school hallway.

She heard him chuckle before he spoke to her. "Is that how you talk to someone who saved your ass?" Nate asked with sarcasm in his voice while holding up the small bag of drugs between his index and middle finger. The pills were hidden by his palm but visible to Mac as she turned and walked towards him.

"You saved my ass, i saved yours, i'd say we're even." She said, trying to grab the Molly, but Nate was quick and closed his hand. Annoyed, Mac turned her head to the side. She wasn't in the mood for his games, but she didn't want to go without her pills either.

Nate put his free hand under her chin and turned her head towards him. "I'm sorry about the video but you gave me no choice. You know it drives me crazy when you dress like that or when you tell me another dick fucks you." Contrary to his harsh words, he gently stroked one of her curls behind her ear.

"Yeah, i know." She answered him softly as she leaned into his touch.

His hand cupped her face, his thumb caressed her skin until it touched her plumped bottom lip, which he pulled down slightly. While he did so, the two kept staring into each other's eyes.

Nate couldn't deny that he still loved Mac. He loved her more than Maddy, he realized that every time he looked at Mac, especially when she looked at him like that. Her light brown eyes bored into his in the sweetest way possible, making him unable to ignore his desire to kiss her.

Nate bent down while Mac reached up on her tiptoes towards him. He could feel her warm breath on his skin and smelled her unmistakable scent of fresh fruit as she leaned into him. His lips tingled in anticipation of a kiss with the girl he had missed for so long, but before their lips met, Mac took the moment of distraction and snatched the little package of Molly from Nate's hand and pushed away from him with the hand she had previously placed on his chest.

Smiling, she backed away from him as he tried to grab her wrist. "You're still so easy to get, but hey... thanks for that." She gestured at the drugs in her hand before turning away from him to find the nearest girls bathroom. Mac didn't see Nate's smirk and she didn't know that this game of cat and mouse turned him on in a messed-up way.

What Mac knew was that no matter how much she believed him that his apology was genuine, she wasn't going to forgive him. She just couldn't. If it had just been the stupid sex tape maybe she could have forgiven him but she couldn't forgive the fact that he changed the date of the video and somehow managed to edit away his fucking mole on his stomach so that some random people on this ominous Twitter page thought they found out that it was Mac who was cheating on Nate. 

That was something she would never forgive him for.

Chapter Text

After the Molly took effect, Mac's mood was far better than it had been that morning. She skipped the first lesson completely, because on the one hand she had already missed a lot and on the other hand she was very busy breaking up the pills so that she could then snort them.

You can take MDMA orally , but Mac's addictive drug was cocaine, so she took the Molly as she would have taken the white powder. Through her nose. But yeah, like i said, her mood was a lot better.

No one who didn't know noticed that Mac was high as a plane 'cause she wasn't a rookie in the drug game, she knew how to act when she had drugs in her blood. Also i think it's easier to tell when someone with a drug addiction is on turkey than to tell when they're high, but what do i know.

Of course, as soon as Nate and Mac were called into the principal office, the wildest rumors started. It was clear that it was about the video but some even believed it was because they were caught having sex... again.

There were also rumors about the punishment and they were far more stupid than the assumptions as to why the two had been called to Principal Hayes. Some girls would think it would be a good idea for Nate to clean the cafeteria naked so he would get as much exposed as Mac. I personally think they just want to see Nate's dick instead of standing up for Mac, but whatever.

There were also people who took Nate's shit and didn't believe that he was the one who leaked the video. What they believed was the rumor going around on Twitter that Mac had cheated on Nate and therefore thought it was only fair to punish Mac instead of the Jacob's-Boy.

One girl even went so far as to say that Mac's nose should be cut off, as was done with every adulteress back in medieval times. Disfiguring a woman's face took away the dangerous power of her beauty, so she figured it would be appropriate.

I figured it was sick to even think about that.

The girl who was put in her place by Mac at McKay's party also added her two cents and said in a mocking tone that it would be enough if Mac were branded so that no guy in the world would touch her ugly ass anymore.

What the hell is going on in the minds of these jealous bitches? They are so blinded by Nate's appearance that they don't even realize he's lying.

But i know he lied.

I was by Mac's side when she had a mental breakdown from catching him cheating. I saw how she suffered from their breakup and it was me who felt compelled to give her cocaine to make her feel better.

Trying to make everything look different through a rigged fake video made him even more pathetic than he already was.

If I were Mac, i wouldn't have protected Nate. Shit no, i would have handed him over to Principal Hayes without mercy, but i'm not Mac.

And i wasn't Maddy either, otherwise it would have been me talking to Mac in the school bathroom that day.

"Wow, i didn't know Hayes could be such a dick." Maddy said as she looked in the mirror to fix her black hair while Mac stood next to her applying fresh lip gloss. The latina couldn't believe her principal's audacity in wanting to tell his students what they can and can't wear.

"I know, right? Like let me life." Mac took the applicator from her lips and put it back in the gloss container, but before she could put it back in her purse, maddy stopped her.

"Oh my god, is that the dior lip gloss?" Her eyes lit up when she saw the expensive makeup product in her friend's hands. Maddy's not poor or anything. She could have afforded the Dior lip gloss herself, but getting those pieces was damn hard. They were always sold out. She knew Mac probably got the gloss from her mother, who brought it back from one of her business trips. There were so many advantages when the mother worked with celebrities. "Can i use it?"

– "Sure." Mac smiled and handed the lip gloss to Maddy, who immediately applied it to her lips. For the two of them it was natural to share things. Makeup, clothes, men's taste when it came to Nate Jacobs and their hobbies. "I hope you don't mind that i gave someone a blowjob this morning." Mac teased with a smirk as the Latina stared at her perfectly glossy lips in the mirror.

Maddy's jaw drops and her eyes widen as she turns her head in Mac's direction. "Shut up, you did not!"

The black haired girl didn't say that because she was putting on the lip gloss Mac put on seconds earlier on her lips, which she'd used to suck a dick that morning - because Mac was one of the most hygienic people she knew - she said it because it meant Mac was spending the night with a boy. That sounded like fake news to Maddy's, but the laughter Mac let out seemed to confirm just that.

"Yes, i did." The brunette answered with a bright smile, taking the lip gloss from Maddy's hand to put the item in her purse.

"Bitch, who was the lucky one?"
Maddy's voice sounded just as excited as Mac's. They were both high. High from Molly but also from the euphoria of having intimacy with someone.

Mac considers for a moment whether she should reveal who she gave a blowjob to, after all she's seen how BB and Cassie reacted, but on the other hand Maddy didn't say anything derogatory.

"Uh... okay, i'll tell you, but you can't tell anyone." Mac said, with a slightly shy smile.

This request only makes Maddy even more curious, she lowered the brush in her hand with which she applied some bronzer on her forehead and looked intently at the girl next to her. "Hang on, do i know this dude?"

Mac pulled a small packet of tic tac's out of her purse and popped one of the orange flavored candy into her mouth while shrugging casually and nodding her head in confirmation of Maddy's question.

"Oh please don't say it's McKay." The Latina pleaded in a dismissing tone as she continued to contour her forehead.

The brunette let go of her curls, which she is trying to position correctly so that they can shine again in their full glory and looked at her friend in horror. "No! What kind of absurd idea is that?"

Maddy put her makeup products back in her bag while exhaling in relief. "Thank god Cassie got some weird crush on him and I couldn't stand her whining about you sucking her guy's cock." She was still rummaging in her bag, which was why she missed Mac's face grimacing. Finding her perfume, the Latina looked up and gave the Donahue-Girl a questioning look. "So? Who was it then?" She asked while spreading some of the floral scent onto her wrist.

Mac closed the tube of moisturizer for her hands and automatically handed it to Maddy, knowing she would use it too. "Fez...co." She mumbled more than actually saying it.

Maddy handed the cream back to Mac after rubbing her hands with a confused expression, trying to realize her friends answer at the same time. "But didn't you say that..." –

"I lied!" Mac interrupted the Latina vigorously, while she put the hand cream back in her purse. She knew what Maddy wanted to say. "I lied, okay? Yes, i spoke to him at the party. Yes, he was the one i texted with yesterday morning and yes i gave him a blowjob and it was freaking a-ma-zing." She added, her words getting more and more euphoric, but her happiness vanished as she remembered the argument from the morning. With a sigh she leaned her hips against the sink counter. "I was such a bitch."

Maddy frowned at her friend. Because you gave him a blowjob? Bitch, don't act like it's your first time you've done something like that." She teased with a laugh.

Mac also burst out laughing. "No, not because of that." She got a little more serious. "We quarreled. Right after i gave him head and it was my fault. I was angry, like i said really mean things to him." She mumbled.

Even if she already had this realization on the drive home, it is not easy for her to admit mistakes. In her mother's eyes, she was doing enough wrong that Mac didn't want to admit her own mistakes. So she never did. In her own eyes she was doing everything right, no matter what others said.

The Latina knows that too, which is why she looked all the more confused from her reflection to Mac. "Why does that bother you so much? Do you like him or something?"

Mac pondered that question for a moment. She liked spending time with him, he made her laugh and she felt comfortable around him.

"Nah, not like that." She shrugged nonchalantly. "I guess it just wasn't fair of me. He was really nice to me and he helped me with something, you know? He didn't deserve my bitchy ass."

Maddy can't hide her grin. "That something he helped you with isn't by any chance between your legs?"

The brunette scoffed in amusement. "No bitch, we made out the day before but we didn't have sex, just dry humping and shit."

The latina nodded her head in understanding. She still didn't know exactly why Mac was so sick of the argument, after all she was constantly arguing with someone.

"So, what were you guys arguing about?" She asked her friend with interest in her voice.

Maddy's voice pulled Mac out of her thoughts. She looked at the black-haired girl and considered how much she should tell her. She trusted Maddy, but didn't want to reveal too much about what Fezco was doing. She knew he was selling drugs, of course, but what went on behind the scenes was nobody's business, so Mac said only the most necessary.

"He doesn't want to sell me drugs anymore. He thinks it's bad for my health and shit." She said with attitude in her voice. Just because she realized it was unfair to bitch him like that didn't mean she suddenly liked his decision.

The Latina can't help but laugh at Mac's pout. "Girl, it is bad for your health."

Mac cocked her head to the side. "Bitch, what are you talking about, you take that shit yourself. Tell your high ass not to lecture me." Both teenagers laughed in their euphoria before Mac had a thought that reminded them of something. she rummaged in her small purse. "Here." She handed Maddy a $50 bill.

The Latina took it and tucked it in her bra, grinning. "If you need anything else, i got you girl, don't worry."

Mac nodded gratefully to her friend. Together they left the bathroom and walked down the empty school hallway to sit on a bench outside. P.E. was still going on for a while, so they still had time to chat.

The click of her heels rhythmically echoed down the hallway until Maddy suddenly stopped, causing Mac to stop as well.

Confused, mac looked back at the latina. "What is it, why are you stopping?"

Maddy looked like she was snapped out of deep thoughts as she looked at the brunette with a blank face. "Isn't it ironic that you're fucking a candy seller who won't sell you candy anymore." She laughed at Mac's situation.

Mac just rolled her eyes and turned back to the school exit. "Kiss my ass, bitch."

The only answer she got was Maddy's laugh.

––


I didn't see Mac again until lunch. I was surprised that she sat down at the table where Jules and i were sitting but Fez probably didn't tell her about my bitchy disappearance the night before. I was glad 'cause Mac acted like she always does with me and not like i'm crazy 'cause i can't stand her and Fez fucking or whatever they were doing.

She told us that she didn't rat out Nate to the principal. Jules couldn't understand that, but i wasn't surprised at all. Mac worked things out in her own way, she didn't need anyone to take care of her business. It has always been like this. I think when you had a father who left your family and a mother who didn't give a fuck about you, you learn how to fight your own battles.

After that, she told us what Hayes said about her outfit. I found his behavior fucking unnecessary . He just acted like Mac usually only wears turtleneck sweaters and long pants. Damn half the school dressed like damn hookers or pimps and no one ever cared but suddenly Mac's choice of outfits is a problem?

Fucking hypocrite .

After Jules admired Mac for not letting our principal tell her how to dress, she brought the topic back to her internet acquaintance.

Fucking Shyguy118.

"He sent me photo's of his dick, do you want to see them?" Jules asked the two girls.

Mac heard the blonde's voice, but she was too busy pushing the food back and forth on her tray, thinking about apologizing to Fezco or not.

Rue, on the other hand, shrugged her shoulders, overwhelmed by the question.

"I mean, it's huge, right?" Jule's voice is full of pride.

Rue squinted to take a closer look at the penis on the phone display. For her it was an ordinary penis. One penis, two testicles covered by a sac of skin, yep, normal dick. But to be fair Rue didn't like the male genitals anyway, you could have shown her any penis and Rue would have called it ordinary.

"Mmmm." Rue made a face and shook her head.

"Don't front, it's a big dick!" Jules said, shocked by Rue's answer. That wasn't the answer she expected.

"Yeah, you know, maybe." Rue answered while putting the phone down on the table "But uh, we can't really tell 'cause it's just fucking floating in space."

– "So?"

"So there's no way to compare his size, you know, like a evian water bottle or a fucking aubergine or something. We can only guess that his penis is big and to be honest he looks average to me."

Jules sighed at her friends silly theories. "Rue. She leaned forward to add more seriousness to her words. "This is an objectively big dick."

Rue just made a face again. "Let's ask Mac, she knows a lot about dicks."

Mac noticed people staring at her and looked up from her now half-crushed apple to see both Rue and Jules looking at her expectantly.

"What?" She asked cluelessly.

Jules sighed again. Firstly because Mac didn't listen to their conversation and secondly because she has to defend her almost-boyfriends big dick in front of Rue.

"Can you look at Tyler's dick pic and please tell Rue he's huge?" The blonde asked with a pointed look at Rue.

Mac shrugged her shoulders and pushed her tray aside, she wasn't hungry anyway. "Sure, show me."

With a smile, Jules picked up her phone from the table and gave it to the brunette. She watched expectantly as Mac looked at the picture.

Mac squinted like Rue did before and tilted the phone slightly to look at the dick on the display. She looked so focused that even Rue was curious about what Mac had to say.

"Mmmm." Mac grimaced.

Jules smile dropped at the very familiar answer, while Rue's smirk grows. "I mean... his dick is definitely not small, but it's not big either." She added to her skeptical 'Mmmm', which resulted in Jules giving an annoyed look to a rather pleased Rue.

"And he doesn't look aesthetic, but that's a matter of taste, i guess." Mac said, handing the phone back to Jules.

"What do you mean it's not aesthetic?" The blonde took it from her hand a little more roughly than was necessary.

"There are dicks that are more beautiful than others, you know, they're more photogenic." Mac answerd nonchalantly.

Rue didn't understand that you could make such a thing out of a penis. Who cares how photogenic or aesthetic he is - it's just a sex organ.

Jules scoffed softly and gave mac an incredulous look. "And what do you think a photogenic dick looks like?"

The brunette didn't have to think long about an answer. "Like a dick with a future." She said while dreamily staring into space.

Both Jules and Rue looked at the girl like she was crazy. Rue noticed right away that Mac was high, but she had no idea that she was high like that.

"Oooo-kay." Rue let her eyes slide from her best friend to Jules. "You know what, show me another pic of him." She prompted the blonde because despite this whole conversation about dicks being weird as fuck, Rue wanted to know what aesthetic Mac was talking about.

Jules chose the most attractive photo for her and held out her phone to Rue.

"Well, the lighting is nice." Rue complimented. "And his room looks clean. And he looks well groomed." She went on to list the positives of the dick-pic.

"Right?" Far more satisfied with that answer than Mac's, Jules steadies her elbow and rests her head on her hand as she grins proudly.

Rue still didn't understand the excitement about a penis, but agreed with the blonde. "Okay, yeah, i'm beginning to understand the appeal. Rue said, handing the back to Jules.

"Show it to me." Mac put down her paper cup with the strawberry milkshake she was drinking from and took the phone from Jules.

"Okay, you know what, you don't have to say anything." Jules said offended. Seeing Mac's unenthusiastic expression, the blonde grabbed her phone and put it in her school bag.

Rue and her best friend can't help but giggle at Jules' behavior. They knew that Jules wasn't really mad, just a little offended because they didn't think ShyGuy118's cock was big enough, which made the whole thing even funnier.

"Ok, yes very funny. You want to talk about cocks with a future? Show me some then." Jules said to Mac with a smug smile because she didn't believe Mac could show her any aesthetic dick.

"Well, i don't have any on my phone 'cause that would be kinda weird since i can see as many dicks as i want in real life, but Jarel over there..." Mac pointed to a black boy with braids, sitting at a table with his friends. "...Has a really nice dick, you know not too small, not too big, a few veins, ouuuhh yeah, i really liked his dick." Jules looked from the boy to Mac with an expression on her face like she had told her the craziest story ever, but the brunette just kept talking. "Or his friend... uh... Lavaughn, the one with the curly afro, his dick is also hella fine, he..." – She was interrupted by Jules who turned her head from Lavaughn back to Mac.

"You had sex with both of them?" Her voice dripped with disbelief. When the brunette confidently nodded her head, Jules' eyes widened. "But you said they're friends. Isn't that kind of... weird?"

In truth, Jules didn't find it strange at all, she was just a little jealous that these two guys were having sex with Mac.

"Not if it was at the same time," Rue mumbled, scratching the back of her head a little embarrassed.

Jules jaw drops to the floor. "You had a threesome with those two?" She asked quietly, which didn't make her voice any less shrill.

Mac grimaced at Jules' expression of astonishment. "Girl, it's not that surprising, i mean, look at them, these two are so hot global warming has been replaced by global melting." She said, giggling widely at her own Joke.

Just ignore her, she's high... and crazy. Rue thought, looking at her best friend.

The blonde raised an eyebrow at Rue, but she just shrugged, so Jules shook her head imperceptibly and turned the subject to something else.

"Anyways, here's the thing, i like sent him a few pics from the school bathroom during class because he asked me to." –

"Wait, like nudes?" Rue asked. She couldn't understand the trend of sending nudes to strangers.

"I can't talk about it, but i need your help." Jules answered while tapping a finger on the wooden tabletop.

Rue shrugged her shoulders slightly. "Yeah, sure whatever."

The blonde glanced sideways at Mac, but she was busy squeezing and licking the chocolate filling out of her croissant. It wasn't that Jules didn't want Mac to overhear her conversation with Rue, but she didn't want her high ass to make another super funny comment about it. After making sure the brunette was distracted, she scooted closer to a rue to lower her voice.

"I want, like, good, professional, partial nudes." She started to explain. "Like, classy but not to arty. Like, like i took them with very little thought or effort but also couldalso be in a fucking moma." Jules glanced at Mac again but this time because she really didn't want her to hear what she had to say to Rue. "I want them to look like Mac on her sextape. Like, natural and all that."

Be cool, Rue. Rue's inner voice admonished her.

"Yeah, it's like, easy, whatever." She mumbled as nonchalantly as possible, before her attention turned to her best friend.

Mac was still licking the chocolate off her pastry. Rue wondered how anyone could look so attractive while doing something like this but then again, it was mac sitting in front of her. She could probably do anything and look hot doing it. Rue squized her legs together and reached out to take the croissant from Mac's hand.

The brunette was about to protest but Kate, sitting down next to her, distracted her.

"Hey Guy's..." –

She couldn't go on because Mac cut her off with a pout. "Hey Kat in the hat, oh wait you're not wearing a hat. My bad." She giggled before pouting again "But uh... sorry about..." She moved closer to Kat's ear to whisper her next words into it. "...the video." Her whisper was so loud that the others at the table could also hear it.

"Uh,... are you high, Mac?" Kat also whispered, just out of reflex.

The brunette raised her hand to bring her thumb and indexfinger together, leaving a small gap between them. "Just a little bit." She whispered back.

"Okay, could y'all please stop whispering?" Jules asked rhetorically.

"Sorry, uh, i'm actually here because i wanted to ask if any of you guys know anything about bitcoins, like, how it works and stuff." Kat said while looking at her friends and Jules.

"Oh, like, the golden coins with the B on them?" Mac asked, her voice sounding a little excited.

"Yeah." Kat replied, hoping that she had finally found someone who might know something about it.

Mac thought about it for a moment, pursing her lips, before shaking her head. "No, sorry, no idea."

Kat dropped her shoulders and looked at Rue as if to tell her to handle her best friend.

"Uh listen, i think Ash knows stuff about that. Maybe you could ask him." Rue suggested while pushing Mac's hand aside, which was trying to grab the licked croissant from the plate Rue put it on moments before.

Sometimes her high ass was like a little kid..

"Ash as in Fezco's brother, right?" Kat asked to make sure she was right.

Mac wasn't listening to what the two were talking about as she looked around the cafeteria for something interesting, but at the mention of Fez her head snapped in Kat's direction.

The girl was already looking at her expectantly. "Can you go to the store with me after school? You're cool with him, so it won't be that weird."

– "Uh, i have to do my french homework and i have to learn the entire language tonight. Au revoir!" Mac tried to get up from the table, but was stopped by Kat, who grabbed her arm.

"What are you talking about? You don't have any French lessons." The Hernandez-girl asked confused.

"Oh, yeah right, uh..." When Mac ran out of a plausible answer, she sighed and decided to tell the truth. "It was just an excuse 'cause Fez and i aren't that cool anymore 'cause we had a fight after i gave him a blowjob this morning, so..." –

"You did what?" Jules and Rue asked in unison and looked at her as if she had told them that she hid a dead body in her basement.

Mac didn't understand the problem and frowned at the strange behavior of the two. Little did she know they both didn't like her getting intimate with Fezco. Yeah, Jules texted Tyler and she quite liked him, but that didn't mean she had to approve of Mac being sexually active with other people.

After saying she wouldn't say no to sex with girls, Jules still had hope that she could be that girl. And now that Jules knew Mac was open to threesomes too, maybe she could have one with her and Tyler.

Rue's hope, however, disappeared more and more. For years she was secretly in love with her best friend and for years she hoped that her feelings would be reciprocated, but nothing happened.

She could accept Mac having sex with other boys because she knew it was all meaningless, but she felt that Fez was different. She saw his eyes twinkle when he looked at Mac and she noticed Mac's suddenly sad mood as she brought up the argument with Fezco. She never cared when she had a fight with someone.

"I gave him a blow..." –

Before Mac could finish her answer, Rue got up from the table and mumbled something she had to do before the next class started, with that she stormed out of the cafeteria, leaving three confused faces.

"Okay, that was weird, but anyway, please come with me." Kat begged the brunette.

Mac had a hard time saying no when friends asked her for favors, so she had no choice but to say yes.

"Okay, yeah, i'll come with you. I'll meet you at my car after school, yeah?"

Kat planted a kiss on her friend's cheek. "Thank you, bitch." She said before getting up and leaving the table.

Mac sighed and reached for the chocolate croissant but dropped it back on the plate. She had lost her appetite now that she knew she was going to meet Fez and would have to do as Maddy suggested in their conversation.

She had to apologize to him.

Chapter Text

Can you like two people? Like for real is it possible to have feelings for two people at the same time?

'Cause i think besides Mac, i also like Jules. She's fun and beautiful. Different than Mac, because nothing comes close to Mac's charisma, but i like Jules style. 

Maybe i was in love with my best friend for so long that i didn't even notice that it was more about getting used to it than real feelings.

But why does it hurt me to hear that she and Fezco had something going on?

It bothers me almost equally that Jules has met that Tyler-Guy on the internet and even wants to send him nudes. 

Buuuuuut after all i'm the one who gets to do these nudes from Jules.

So i think its not that bad. 

Maybe in the meantime i can find out what i really want. 

Or who. 

But until then i waited for Jules 'cause while i went home to run some errands, Jules wanted to get some snacks and drinks for the fucking photo session.

"So what's up with you and the drug dealer?" Kat asked with interest in her voice. 

The brunette sighed as she turned the steering wheel to the left to pull into the shop's parking lot after signaling in that direction.

"Don't call him that Kat, he's more than a drug dealer." She murmured, tired of everyone seeing Fezco as just someone who sells drugs. 

A smirk formed on the Hernandez-girl's face. "So, is he more to you? Like, do you like him or is it just a situationship because his dick is good?" 

The younger girl can't help but roll her eyes playfully at her friend's words. Instead of answering, she parked her pink Range Rover in an empty space, turned off the engine and unbuckled her seat belt before opening her car door. "Come on." 

Mac would never show or admit it, but she was actually a little nervous as she made her way from school to Fez Shop with Kat in tow.

Actually she was in tow, because it was Kat who wanted something from Ashtray. Mac just accompanied her and thought about using this change to talk to Fezco about their fight that morning. But that's exactly the point that makes her hands sweaty. Talking to him probably meant apologizing, and that meant admitting a mistake.

This is something the brunette struggled with. The result of having to listen to your mother for almost your entire life about everything you've been doing wrong. 

But Mac didn't want to do what she usually did in such cases; doing nothing and waiting for the other person to come up to her and apologize.

And if that didn't happen, then Mac was fine with that, too. As long as it wasn't about Rue, Maddy, or Kat, she didn't really care. It's similar with Fez, even if she has known him for a much shorter time than her friends, she wanted to keep in touch with him. She really enjoyed the time she had spent with him so far. 

She liked spending time in his apartment, she liked to cook for him and Ash and then eat it together on the sofa. She liked watching movies or a silly cartoon with him, hell she even liked the stupid comments Ashtray would make while they were cuddling. She liked that he took care of her after taking the fentanyl. She liked waking up in his bed only to sneak onto the couch with him and she liked making him feel good. She liked that he made her comfortable and that she could be who she is without being judged.

She liked him

The giggles behind her tell Mac that Kat followed her into the store. They didn't have to search long for the person they was looking for, because Ashtray because he's sitting on the cash register counter with his phone on whom he was playing a game.  Hearing footsteps and the click of high heels on the floor, he looked up from the screen only to frown at Mac's sight. 

"Are you coming straight from a strip club or why are you wearing that shit?" 

By 'shit' he meant the short dress and heels Mac was wearing. He didn't really think her outfit sucked - in fact he thought it was hot - but he loved teasing her. In most cases she actually countered really well and that entertained him. 

She sighed again as she grabbed an orange-flavored Capri Sun from the feezer. "I wish, but nah, we were only at school." 

Ashtray eyed the girl in front of him skeptically and was about to comment that this is definitely not an outfit for school unless it's called 'Little Darlings Lemon Grove', but decided against it as he watched Mac insert the paper straw into the intended hole of the Caprisun stuck and then took a sip of the juice with relish.

"Didn't you learn in your school that things aren't yours until you pay for them?" He asked wryly. 

Mac raised one of her eyebrows as she lowered the hand holding the Caprisun and looked at Ash in disbelief. "Boy, didn't you learn at your school how to speak respectfully to lady's?"

That statement made Ash snort. "I've seen you eat chips, you're not a lady." 

Mac's jaw dropped in fake offence when Ashtray brought up this reference to her on their movie night together. 

She, Fez and Ashley were in the middle of the low-level horror movie 'FRAILTY' when Mac got hungry, so she opened the bag of chips she took from the shop earlier and ate the baked potato slices. According to the young boy, she ate the chips so loudly that he feared one of the neighbors might call the cops for disturbing the peace. The brunette then tried to quietly eat the onion-flavored chips, but it didn't last long. She couldn't help it, she had to chew loudly. She felt that this was the only way the chips would give off their full flavor. 

"Rude!" Mac pouted while pointing her index finger at Ash, who just rolled his eyes before his attention fell on Kat. She stood next to Mac and watched as the two roasted each other with a mixture of confusion and amusement. 

"Why are you here?" He asked both girls with skepticism in his eyes. He knew that if even one of them was there because she wanted drugs, he would say no. Fez asked him in the morning not to sell any more stuff like that to Mac, no matter how much she would pay. The boy understood his brother's concern, because he felt the same way, even if he would never admit it. 

At his young age he has already seen a lot, including what drugs like cocaine can do to someone. That's not what he wanted for Mac. 

"Oh right, uh do you know how bitcoins work?" Kat asked the younger boy, who raised an eyebrow at her after that kind of question. 

"Yeah, you know the golden coins with the B on them." Mac added, causing Ashtray's gaze to shift blankly to the little brunette. For a few seconds he just looked at her and wondered what she thought what a fool he was that she was seriously explaining to him what bitcoins look like. Mac, on the other hand, just stared back, not knowing what his problem was.

Without saying anything, Ash turned back to Kat. "It's a worldwide cryptocureency and digital payment system." He explained to the girl. 

Kat frowned as she glanced at Mac, who didn't help much as she sipped her Caprisun and stared absently around the shop, so her eyes fell back on Ashtray. "I literally have no clue what you talking about." 

Ash shrugged nonchalantly. If she doesn't understand it that way, that wasn't his problem. "Well, there's no easier way to explain it." 

– "Why don't you tell us what you're trying to do, and we can tell you how we can help."  

Mac's eyes widened as she heard Fezco's voice behind her. She wasn't prepared for that, she thought he wasn't even in the store as he wasn't anywhere to be seen, but there he was; leaning against the entrance of the shop with a joint between his fingers.

She couldn't help but admire his looks. He looked hot in baggy jeans and a multi-colored polo sweatshirt. Mac liked it when people found her style and wore her outfits with confidence, but what she loved about Fez was that his dressing style could have jumped straight out of a '90s rap video. Everything he wore suited him well. 

Fezco felt the same way about Mac, while he wondered where she came from for wearing an outfit like that, he couldn't deny that she looked super hot in that little dress. 

"Unless it's human trafficking, i don't fuck with human trafficking." Ashtray's words snapped Mac out of her thoughts. She quickly turned her head away from Fez, forcing herself to focus on the warnings on the many cigarette packs behind the younger boy. 

"I'm not human trafficking." Kat let him know, her voice making it clear how absurd she found the thought. 

"Yeah, us neither." Fezco muttered before taking another drag of his joint. His eyes were on Mac, who was still looking everywhere but at him. 

"Uh okay, i was just wondering if it's like, a good way to anonymously get money online." 

Mac heard what Kat said but didn't realize it. She was far too busy with her own thoughts. She would love to talk to Fezco, but she knew he expected an apology and she didn't know if she could bring herself to apologize to him. If she were still high, it would certainly be easier for her. Maybe she should have taken the remaining half pill, but she was afraid Fezco would realize she was on Molly and start a new fight. 

"Thats literally what it's made for." He said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Dumb ass." 

Although Ashtray's words were mumbled, Mac was still lost in her own thoughts, she had heard him clearly. The Brunette narrowed her eyes at the boy until she had his attention. "For that the caprisun is on you." 

Ash just rolled his eyes and was about to tell the girl that she wasn't going to pay anyway, but was distracted by Kat. 

"Okay cool, thank you." Kat said with a smile before turning to her friend. "Hey, i can walk home so you can stay here. I'll text you, bye." She kissed Mac on her cheek and left without her giving a chance to argue or find an excuse, because Kat knew that's what would happen if she didn't leave straight away. 

The Hernandez-Girl had noticed Fezco's looks at Mac and she also knew that her friend liked the ginger, otherwise she wouldn't react so strangely to his presence. She wanted the two of them to sort out whatever they had to clear up. 

Ashtray looked back and forth between his brother, who was still standing outside smoking his joint, and a visibly tense Mac, and decided to jump off the counter and disappear into the back of the shop. 

Fezco took one last hit of his joint before dropping it on the floor and stomping it out with his foot. Then he went to the cash register in the shop to check out the Caprisun. 

As he walked past Mac, she could smell his scent. He smells of fresh laundry, his perfume and the joint he was smoking. A mixture that she is familiar with. A mixture she liked. A lot. 

She watched him type something on the register and wondered if she should say something and if so what should she say? For a moment she thought of just turning around and walking away, taking half the pill on the way to forget how good the time with Fezco was, even if it was only for a few days. But she didn't want that. She didn't want to forget the time with him, and she didn't want their time together to be limited to just those few days.

"Fezco?" 

Her uncertain voice made him turn his head in her direction. He was sorry to see her so nervous, but he also didn't wanted to be the one to back down because he didn't do anything wrong.  

Just looking at her but not saying anything made Mac even more nervous. "Um..." 

Just say i'm sorry, it's not that hard. 

"We should talk. I guess?" 

What? You can throw your little hands and suck dicks like popsicle but you can't say i'm sorry? That's ridiculous. Mac ignored the taunting of her inner voice and focused on Fez, who now turned his full attention to her.

"Well, about this morning,... maybe i said things that weren't entirely fair..." She began, fidgeting with her fingers nervously. "Maybe i should have reacted differently, but...uh, i'm pretty sure i told you when we met that i have a short temper, so..." – 

"So, it's my own fault?" 

"N-No, that's not what i meant. I'm just saying i warned you." Mac shrugged innocently. 

"Is that an apologie?" Fezco couldn't help but smirk at Mac's attempt to smooth things over between them.

"Well, does it sound like one?" Seeing that Fez wasn't mad at her anymore helped the brunette with her nervousness and made her smile as well. 

"I accept it." Fez shook his head in amusement before turning back to the cash register and changing the tape with ease. As soon as he was done, he felt a hand that tenderly reached for his. Looking down beside him, Fez met wide brown eyes looking at him. 

After they looked at each other for a moment - letting their eyes travel over each other's faces, Mac began to speak. "Can i kiss you?" 

This question caught him off guard, not only because he hadn't expected her to ask him that, but also because he was seeing this insecure side of Mac for the first time. 

Without saying anything, Fezco wrapped his hand around her neck and leaned down to kiss her.

Glad not to have been rejected, Mac leaned into his touch and returned the kiss she so desperately wanted. One hand travels to the back of his head to scrape the light stubble there with her long acrylic nails while her other hand clutched into the fabric of his sweater, holding him close. 

Fezco's grip on her neck tightened as he stroked her jawbone with his thumb. Her sun-kissed skin was soft under his touch. His tongue grazed her lower lip, begging for entrance, causing Mac to grin against his mouth before allowing him to kiss her more deeply. 

Mac already felt addicted to his kisses, his touches and his presence. Whenever she were near him - she could feel him physically, she forgot everything around her. 

This light-heartedness was otherwise only brought out in her by drugs. As good as it felt, it also scared her. The only reason she asked him if she could kiss him was because she was afraid that after her behavior that morning he wouldn't want anything to do with her anymore. 

Her father left her when she was young. Nate left her by cheating on her. Two important men in her life left her, and no matter what the real reason, Mac blamed herself.

Actually, the teenage girl knew that was nonsense, but her her inner voice told her that when two people who should care about her could leave her so easily, it must have been her fault. 

She wasn't enough. 

And that fear, the fear of not being enough and of being abandoned again drove her to distance herself emotionally from people, especially men. The night she broke up with Nate, Mac vowed never to give any man in the world that incredible power over her again.

Just because Fezco hadn't rejected her now didn't mean he wouldn't in the future. It's always the samesame; you get use to someonesomeone - start to like them, even - and they leave. 

In the end, everyone leaves. 

That meant no matter how comfortable she felt about Fez, she would be careful not to let their emotional bond get too deep. Their connection is already way more than with any other boy she's slept with in the past year and Mac knew that, she was just trying to ignore it. 

For her it was just a few kisses and fun sexual activities. 

That's it. 

Nothing more. 

Liar. 

Mac once again ignored the taunting of her inner voice and focused solely on Fezco's lips moving in rhythm to hers. As Fezco's hand slipped from her hip to her round ass, she let out a moan and pressed her lower body even tighter against his. 

Without thinking about it, Mac slid her fingers from his stomach to his belt buckle. if they weren't in public she would have undid his pants to slip her hand inside his boxers. She was so turned on by him. 

Just to be on the safe side, he put his hand on hers so she wouldn't get the idea of sliding her fingers down any further, he knew by now how bold Mac could be. 

It shouldn't come to that anyway, because in the middle of their makeout-session someone suddenly cleared their throat next to them.

Chapter Text

Why do people - including me - act like idiots around someone they like?

And  it  gets worse when people find out their feelings  aren't  returned.

It's  like synapses in the brain suddenly  sending  out the wrong signals.  As  if you no longer had any self-control over what you  do .

I mean, sometimes that shit's funny  as  hell. Even if you were the person who made such a fool of yourself, you can  surely  laugh about  it  afterwards.

But sometimes you  overdo   it  and you have  to  learn the hard way that  you've  been acting like a complete idiot. 

"Jules." Mac's perfectly set eyebrow rised in a questioning manner. "What are you doing here?" The brunette doesn't bother to hide the slightly annoyed tone in her voice because that's what she was; annoyed. Not directly by Jules, but by the fact of being disturbed. Even though Fezco still had his hands on her hips and her own were flat on his chest, the blonde ruined her moment.

"Oh, you know, i'm just getting some snacks." Jules waved a bag of Cheetos and a bag of blue Takis in one of her hands before she gestured with her free index finger between the two people in front of her. "Is that the dick with the future you were talking about?"

Almost simultaneously, Mac's and Fezco's eyes narrow. While Mackenna wondered what a shitty show Jules was trying to pull off, Fez wondered what the blonde was even talking about. He doesn't have to wait long for an answer, because after the blonde gives a false laugh, she answers his unspoken question.

"Oh stupid me." She rolled her eyes and pointed her fingertip at her head "You weren't even there when we talked about that, don't worry, we just analyzed the cocks of different men. Oh, did you know that our sex expert Mac had a threesome?" There is so much excitement in Jules' voice that you could get the feeling she was on a stand-up stage performing her comedy program.

Mac was far from amused. She pulled away from Fez and took a step towards Jules.

"You better go now." Mac's voice was calm, which made her threat sound even more dangerous. Although she was a few inches shorter than the blonde despite her high heels, she couldn't deny being intimidated by Mac's eyes. They were darker than usual and yet the anger blazing in them was clearly visible.

Jules tried not to let it show that she was uncomfortable and gave another fake laugh. "You don't have to be embarrassed at all. I'm sure there isn't anything sexual you haven't done." Jules gazed behind Mac at Fezco. "Did you know that she dated Nate fucking Jacobs?"

Fez, who was watching the blonde with narrowed eyes as she took her phone out of her small backpack, wanted to tell her that she might be better off leaving the store, but was interrupted by Mac. She wasn't embarrassed or ashamed of having sex with two men at the same time, she just felt it was something you didn't have to tell the guy you like. And she didn't think it was Jules place to tell these things to Fezco. If the blonde hadn't been the girl her bestie Rue crushed on, she would have thrown the blonde out herself of the shop.

"Jules, i'm warning you one last time, i'm not even playing. Leave. The. Sto.." –

"Ah  aaahhh  fuuuuck.
You feel so good."

Mackenna couldn't finish her sentence because suddenly loud moans filled the fortunately empty shop.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
that’s exactly what i like."

Even before Jules turned the phone with the display in her hand to Mac and Fez, the brunette recognized the moan of pleasure that came from the speaker of the phone.

It was her moan of pleasure.

Mac felt like he was experiencing deja vu. As she had the day before in the school cafeteria, the brunette stared frozen at the video Nate was secretly recording of them, unable to move.

She was shocked by the fact that Jules played this video loudly in public, even though there was nobody in the shop besides the three of them and Ash - who they thought was in the back of the shop - a customer could have walked in at any time. But she was also confused and wondered why Jules was doing something like that.

Little did she know that Jules' blood rushed with anger when she saw Mac making out with the local drug dealer of all people.

As Fezco's eyes reflexively focused on the phone's display, he only caught a glimpse of Mac's lust-filled face. That combined with the sweet sounds of her moans would probably have driven Fezco crazy under other circumstances but the idea that this recording was made without Mac's consent and was circulating on the internet made his stomach churn.

Only then did he really realize what Jules was doing.

He couldn't also explain what the blonde wanted to achieve with her appearance, because everything she did with her behavior was to put herself in a dark light. Something he hadn't thought of about the girl that reminded him of Sailor Moon from the day he first saw her.

Was she jealous 'cause Rue and Mac are best friends and are stuck together at their hips?

He didn't know and he didn't care what Jules' motives were, but what he did know - without having to see Mac's face - was that something just broke in hers again.

And that was enough to stir up indescribable rage in him.

Fezco wasn't someone to be easily upset. He had a good handle on his emotions, which is why it wasn't difficult for him to hold back when a situation got dicey. His brain acts faster than his fists. He only used his fists when absolutely nothing else was effective. Not that the situation was like that, but it took a lot of him not to snatch the cell phone out of Jules' hand to throw it on the floor so that the Sex Tape could finally be stopped. Instead, Fez opened his mouth to tell her to turn off that damn Video and leave the shop, but once again Mac was quicker.

"Turn it off." The brunette's brown eyes slide from the phone to Jule's face. In addition to anger, there was now disgust in her eyes. Mac wanted to yell at the blonde bitch, but it was  like the memory of it being humiliated in front of the entire school and on the internet, taking all the strength out of her body so it was just a dangerous  whisper.

It would be an understatement to say that Jules was scared when Mac stood in front of her like that. Her anger was not only visible in her now very dark eyes, but also felt all around her. If emotion could be seen in its pure form, Jules was sure Mac's body would have been shrouded in a crimson red glow.

And still, instead of complying with her request, the blonde looked at Fezco. "I don't know if you already know this, but this is a sex video of her and god knows which guy." Jules glanced at the phone in her hand before looking back at the drug dealer. "Sounds like she's having fun, huh?" Her voice was full of amusement, but suddenly her face twisted into a mock pout. "The sad thing about this story is that this video wasn't made when she was whoring around, no, it was recorded when she was still with Nate." There was a short pause, so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. "She cheated on him."

The fist landed in her face so unexpectedly and quickly that Jules had no chance of deflecting the blow, causing her to drop her phone and the chips bags in shock to cover her aching eye. With the other one she looked at Mackenna in horror. The blonde never expected to be hit by the smaller girl in front of her, especially not such a hard hit.

Yes, she'd heard Rue when she had told her that Mac sometimes overshoots the mark when she's feeling provoked, but she didn't think that phrase meant she was getting physical. 

Fezco was less shocked but surprised, not realizing what was happening as quickly as he would have liked. Only when Mac woke up from what seemed like a rigid state and turned away from both him and Jules to take a few steps away, he find the right words.

"Leave the shop." When Jules made no move to leave, instead still looking at him in shock, he sighed. "Now." Although his voice was calm, there was so much authority in it that the blonde automatically bent down to pick up the dropped stuff. First she picked up her cell phone, then she went to reach for the bags of chips, but was stopped by Fezco. "Nah, buy that shit somewhere else. I don't want to see you here anymore." He shook his head and gestured with his hand towards the exit of the store. It didn't take long for Jules to comply with his request.

Fez used the time it took the girl to disappear to take a deep breath. He was angry. Angry at Jules for fucking with Mac, but mostly angry at himself for failing to protect Mac - the girl he was attracted to.

Shaking his head at himself, he ran his hand over his head before picking up the two bags of snacks off the floor and placing them carelessly on the counter behind him before walking towards Mac.

Careful not to startle her, he slipped one band around her waist while cradling her shoulder with his other. He felt her tense under his touch and the slight tremor that ran through her limbs, so he began drawing semicircles on her dress-covered hips with his thumb while he spoke to her soothingly.

Mac was so mad at this weak ass bitch that she didn't even feel embarrassed that Fezco had seen and heard her sextape. She was just glad he was there and didn't loathe her for the scene Jules was throwing moments ago.

"Hey, it's okay." His gaze went from her face - where he expected to see tears but saw none - to her fist, which she covered with her other hand. Fez slowly grabbed her hands to look at the battered fist. The first two knuckles of her right hand were reddened, he gently stroked this spot with his thumb and was glad that apart from the bruises he didn't notice any serious injuries.

Mac's humorless laugh made him look back at her face. "Maybe the principal was right. Maybe i really should go to anger management."  She pulled her hand from his light grip and turned to face Fezco. Her hands lingered on his chest as she looked up at him.

"It wasn't my fault. She intended it, right?" That's not what she wanted to say, but her actual words stuck in her mouth as she looked into his worried eyes. Mac didn't know if it was concern about her injured hand or concern about what he'd heard only moments before; that she is a cheater.

Mac didn't even know why that mattered, because even if it were true - even if she cheated on Nate, Fezco shouldn't care because they're not in a relationship.

Damn, we didn't even have sex. 

Mackenna pushed her thoughts aside and waited for an answer from Fez, but before she got it, another voice cut in on their little conversation.

"Hell yeah, she did!" Ashtray, who wasn't at the back of his camp as expected, suddenly stood behind his older brother. He noticed what the blonde had done to Mac and was more than satisfied when Mac finally punched her. "Bitch deserves more than just a punch in her face." He mumbled angrily.

He'd never admit it out loud, but he's already developed a strong protective instinct for Mac. He liked her. He liked their banter, he liked that she cooked for him and Fezco, he liked that he could watch horror movies with her without her sitting in front of the TV screaming and whining.

And while he didn't want to miss any of it, he couldn't pretend he hadn't heard the blonde's last sentence before Mac's fist collided with her eye.

Mac chuckled at Ashtray's harsh words, but then rested her chin on Fez's chest to look up at him through her lashes.

"Can we go to your place?" She pouted. Before the Jules incident, she wouldn't have minded hanging out with him and Ash at the shop, but after being confronted again about her alleged cheating, she just wants to cuddle on the sofa with Fezco. But his look already told her that she had to wait a little longer before they could do that.

"I would like to, but I've got some work to do, baby." His grip on her hips tightened, making it clear to her that, in fact, there was nothing he would rather do than take her to his crib.

"Nah, it's fine, i gotcha." Ashtray said while already picking up the two bags of chips to put them back in their intended place.

Fez glanced over his shoulder at the younger boy with a raised eyebrow. "You sure?"

– "Yeah, we can stay and..."

Ash's snort interrupts Mackenna's attempt to convince him - but more importantly herself - that there would be no problem if they stayed.

"Nah, i don't wanna see your face any longer than i have to. I'll lock up the shop later and meet up with a buddy afterwards." He spontaneously decided to give the two of them some time alone. "I'll text you before i get home." With that, he turned to Fezco with a pointed look meant to tell him, 'I'm texting you so i don't see or hear anything that i don't want to see or hear.'

Fez bit his lip to suppress a bashful grin. "A'ight, thanks, man." He nodded his head, before he turned back to Mac. "Wait here, i'll get us something to eat." He released his grip on the brunette and made his way to the freezers. "Is vegetable lasagna okay, or should we stop at a diner?"

– "Vegetable lasagna is fine." Mac answered with a smile and waited until Fezco had disappeared down the aisle before turning to Ash with a playful grin. "You don't do that for nothing, did you? What do you want for it?" Her face lit up. "Or are you doing it 'cause you like me?" She teased.

The tattooed boy looked blankly at the brunette but didn't answer. He would never give her the satisfaction of being right about what she was joking about

"I'll take that as a yes," The brunette announced with a proud smirk.

"Yeah yeah, whatever." He grumbled sullenly, glad Fez was back to escape Mac's knowing smirk as he took the ready meals from Fezco's hands to scan them.

Fez had overheard the end of their conversation and, with a grin similar to Mackenna's, handed Ash a 10 dollar bill which made Ash roll his eyes as he handed the food back to his older brother.

"Now get your asses out of here." He pointed his hand towards the exit with an annoyed expression, which made both of them laugh.

"Come on, ma." Fezco wrapped an arm around Mac's waist and led her out of the store, but had to stop when she stopped in front of Ashtray to ruffle his short hair with her hand. "Thank you, lil Ash."

As playful as Mac was, she meant her gratitude. She didn't take it for granted that the younger boy would run the shop while she and Fezco sat in front of the TV with veggie lasagna.

Ash pushed her hand aside and mumbled something unintelligible before turning away from the older two. He distract himself from the warm feeling in his stomach, by busy sorting the drinks in the freezers.

Mac laughed again before letting the man next to her lead her outside to her car. Her heart was still beating hard against her ripcage and she still thought her hands were shaking with anger, but in Fezco's arms it was all more bearable.

She was looking forward to spending the evening alone with him, but she was also dreading the moment when they closed the door behind them and found themselves alone in his apartment, because she was sure he wouldn't let the incident with Jules go unmentioned.

Chapter Text

Mackenna Donahue wasn't one to enjoy physical touch unless it was strictly sexual. At least that's how it was for the Mac i've known since breaking up with Nate.

She endured hugs from Maddy, Kat and BB 'cause she didn't want to show them how messed up she really was but the only one who could hug her without her instantly tensing up all inside her was me .

I fucking enjoyed that privilege.

So needless to say, it hurt knowing that there was suddenly competition.

Especially when that competitor was actually one of my friends.

Pff. Fucking Fezco .

As soon as the door slammed shut, Mac turned and launched at Fez. Her arms wrap around his neck as her lips captured his in a passionate kiss.

A little surprised by Mac's sudden attack, he grabbed her hips and pulled her closer to him. The moan as her breasts, which were only covered by the thin fabric of her dress, brushed against his chest was music to his ears.

Mac reached down to the ham of his brightly colored sweater in a silent attempt to tell him know to take it off. She winced as a slight pain went through her right hand but tried not to let it show. Her lips wandered from his over his chin to his neck, which she nibbled lightly. Fezco can't help but let out a deep growl as he feels her teeth gnawing at the tender flesh on his neck. The bittersweet pain is soothed by her tongue licking the small wounds. He's sure you'll definitely see some of her markings on his skin afterwards, not that it would bother him. It's quite the contrary, it turns him on to know who made those marks.

Mac herself isn't a fan of visible hickeys on her body, but that doesn't mean she didn't enjoy getting some all over Fezco's body. She really likes the idea that other girls who are interested in him can see these marks and know that he is already in good hands.

As Fezco slid his hand from her waist to his sweater to oblige her to get rid of the annoying piece of fabric, he noticed her flinch and broke their heated kiss. He looks at the girl in front of him with wide blue eyes and knitted brows that show his concern.

"Are you alright, Ma?"

Not wanting to let on that her knuckles hurt more than she previously admitted in the car, Mac nods her head.

"I'm alright baby, just..." She finishes her sentence by wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling herself up to him for another kiss.

The brunette's soft lips moving in unison with his distract Fez from his thoughts that something might be wrong with Mac. It didn't take long for the once tender kiss to become stormy again. His lips mashed against hers and his grip on her curvy body tightened as he held her even tighter. The physical contact elicits a pleasant moan from Mac. She couldn't remember the last time she felt so comfortable in the arms of a boy.

The guys she used to make out with were often too cocky. It was as if they were all watching the same porn and doing exactly what was shown on her. That doesn't mean it was bad, but it was... monotonous. Like a process that was constantly repeated. They were so confident in their ability that most didn't bother  to see if what they were doing with her pussy was satisfying.

Mac never gave a damn, all these guys were just quick hits, but since her first make out session with Fezco, she hasn't felt the need to sleep with any of these guys anymore.

And they didn't even fuck with each other.

It was crazy, but just when Fez stands in front of her full-size and in his colorful Shirts and looks at her with his head slightly bowed, she feels like a pool is forming in her panties.

The feeling like he's looking at her like she's the most beautiful thing he's ever seen has crept up on her a few times now. The first time was on their first night making out on his sofa. She'd seen looks like these from men and women before, it was nothing new for Mac to be looked at like that, but seeing the admiration in Fezco's eyes made her heart beat faster and her cheeks flush slightly.

It was different.

Fezco was different.

His touches were less routine and maybe even less confident than the touches of the guys Mac had sex with over the past year, but she liked that. She liked that he was more deliberate and gentle with her. Even when she sucked his dick he was more a gentleman than the classic personification of a bad boy.

The bristles of his beard scratched against her soft cheeks as she gripped his head Formel, as if to keep him from escaping. After a hard day at school and the unpleasant encounter with Jules, which really got on her nerves, she wants to be as close as possible to the man in front of her.

 "I want you." Her words were no more than a hoarse breath. Hoarse from the kiss and from the excitement she felt in her body. With her brown eyes, which seem much more black from arousal, she looks up at Fezco, his face still in her hands.

Fez briefly returned her beguiling gaze before lifting the brunette onto his hips without saying anything. He didn't have to use words, it was more than clear that he wanted Mac as much as she wanted him.

Automatically wrapping her arms around his neck, Fezco carried the brunette into his bedroom - as if she weighed nothing - and carefully lowered her onto his bed. It was late afternoon, the warm California sun peeking slightly through the closed blinds, but it was enough to see something in the room.

Fezco leaned over Mac and looked into her dark brown eyes. They look like those of a deer - big and surrounded by thick black eyelashes. His own eyes wandered over her nose, in whose left nostril there was a filigree ring, to her full lips, which had lost their shine from their kiss. Fezco was sure her lip gloss was smeared through his beard. Her corkscrew curls lay spread out like a veil on the light-colored varnish of the mattress. In Fezco's eyes she was simply beautiful - not only at that moment when she was lying under him in a short dress, fancy make up, aroused and ready to be touched by him, but also when he woke up with her on the sofa a few days ago. However, it wasn't just her looks that made her so attractive to Fez, it was her sense of humor, her intelligence and her independence. She could stand up for herself - something he's already seen more often than he might have liked. She was really good at cooking, even cleaned up afterwards and the most important thing for him, she got along well with Ashtray.

He hadn't known her long, and yet he couldn't deny being attracted to Mac. Fez knew what was building in his body - the feelings he was harboring towards the brunette - was going too fast, but he couldn't help himself.

He liked Mac.

Despite this, he couldn't stop wondering what a girl like Mackenna wanted from a man like him - a high school dropout who made a career as a drug dealer with his little brother.

The fact that he knew she was dating Nate Jacobs a year ago didn't help his self-doubts. Son of the wealthy and well-known man who owned 'all the apartment buildings  past Kemper in town', a popular student and the fucking stat quarterbeck of East Highland High School. Fez knew what a scumbag Nate was, but that didn't stop his mind from imagining him and Mac once walking the school hallways as the town's It couple.

On top of that, he saw other guys and girls at McKay's party looking at the brunette beauty. It was like all eyes were on her as soon as she walked into a room. Mac could have anyone, he knew that. She made no secret of liking sex and having had a lot of sex with different men. Something that really pissed him off, but also something he couldn't do anything about. Mac was single, she owed him no fidelity or loyalty. In fact she could literally do whatever she wanted and he had to accept that. At least if he wanted to continue spending time with Mackenna.

He pushed all his doubts and negative thoughts aside and focused on the essentials. Mac was here. With him. She lay beneath him and enjoyed his touch and kisses.

With one hand in her dark hair and the other on her lower back, he lowered his head and placed his lips on hers again. The passion inside them both. Mag enjoyed every single touch of this man, no matter how small, but she felt that she wanted more from him - needed more from him. Hoping to give her already throbbing midsection some relief, she lifted her pelvis and attempted to rub against Fezco's body. She lets out a lustful moan as the fabric of her thin lace panties collides with the denim fabric of his baggy pants.

Noticing the brunette rubbing against him impatiently, Fezco grinned against the delicate skin of her neck and gently bit down where her neck and shoulder meet.

"Oh damn, Fez." Mac's pelvis snapped against his thighs as she cursed out loud in lust. Everything in her tensed as the light bite sent an electric sensation through her body.

Her sudden moan surprised him a bit. He lifted his head and looked
with a mischievous grin into Mac's misty eyes. "I didn't know you were so sensitive."

His deep voice made Mac shudder in the most positive way. She met his gaze as one of her hands slid from his shoulders down to his hand on her hip. She grabbed it and guided it between her thighs.

"Feel what you do to me." Mac watched Fezco's gaze closely follow her tangled hands and heard the sharp gasp he made as his fingers brushed her wet pussy.

Without hesitation, he pulled his hand out from under hers to push her already slipped dress up, at the same time he leaned up to her and kissed her wildly. Fez was happy that when it comes to clothing, besides the colorful look, he always relied on comfort because his erection grew with every further sensation Mac's body.

His slightly rough hands danced from her tanned stomach down to the hem of her panties. Mac's hips immediately shot up to meet his hand, but to her disappointment, his fingers didn't hit the spot that was throbbing with need. Again her hand grabbed his wrist to get his hand into the right position, but before she could reach her goal, Fezco broke their kiss and stopped his hand under hers.

His nose brushed her flushed cheek as his lips found her ear. Be patient, Baby." Fez's  warm breathing gave the brunette goosebumps as he whispered those words to her. Mac's deep breath to keep her composure made him grin even though he felt the same way. Both the brunette and the redhead were filled with passion and heat, both needing and wanting the others touch but as Mac slid her free hand to the button of his trousers, Fezco stopped her again. He met her confused look with a coy grin.

"Last time it was about me, remember?" Although Mac had trouble deciphering his sentence properly, she nodded her head in a yes motion. "And now it's all about you." With that, he slipped his hand into her panties while his lips swallowed her deep moan.

His thumb rubbed her clit at a comfortable pace while he pulled her labia slightly apart with his fingers. Feeling how wet she was because of him made Fezco feel pride. Carefully but firmly he let his finger slide into her pussy. Both sighed in satisfaction.

Mac's hand, which wasn't on his shoulder, went to his hand, which was in her panties. "Faster, please."

She didn't have to tell him that twice, he fingered her faster while his lips slid over the bare parts of her torso. Neck, shoulder, her delicate collarbones, the base of her round breasts - everything was explored by his mouth.

"Just like... fuck..." Her back arched toward Fezco as he slid unexpectedly a second finger in her heated center. "...that." Mac's last word turns into a long groan.

He loved that Mac communicated what she wanted from him without shyness. Though he actually thought of fingering a woman as a marathon rather than a sprint, he was more than willing to please the girl at her own pace.

Fezco started to lay kisses trailing down her stomach, making every single kiss last a second longer than the one before, while he massaged her clit. Her steady moans made his cock twitch in anticipation, but he knew he had to remember that this time it wasn't about him.

It was all about her.

He stopped the trail of kisses at the top of Mac's lacy underwear. He glanced up at the brunette to make sure she was okay with what he was about to do, even though he thought he already knew the answer.

Mac put her hand to the back of his head, letting her long acrylic nails scrape his very short hair, and gave him an approving smile. "It's all yours. Do whatever you want." Suddenly she raised her index finger. For a moment he was afraid that she would stab him in the eye with the tip of her crazy long nail because she was waving her finger in front of his nose as if she wanted to admonish him for something. "Unless it has something to do with my tiny little butthole, then..." –

"Yeah alright, Mac." Fez laughed, shaking his head. This girl was unbelievable. "Just relax, Ma." To give his words more expression, he distributed small kisses on her thigh. 

Mac laid her head back on the soft pillow, more than satisfied, and  enjoyed the tingling sensation of his mouth on her skin and his fingers fucking her in a steady rhythm. Her hand, which rested on his shoulder until then, claws into the fabric of his top, only then did the brunette realize that he was still wearing his shirt. Between excitement and satisfaction, she found the strength to pull up the colorful piece of cloth that was preventing her from digging her nails into his skin.

Fezco understood what Mac wanted from him and pulled his fingers out of her to pull his shirt over his head. It landed carelessly on the floor of his room. the tearful sigh Mac left when Fez's fingers stopped filling her would have made him chuckle if his gaze hadn't fallen on her hand that had taken his place on her pussy. Through the fabric of her panties she massaged her clit with her index and middle finger and moaned softly. His blue eyes went to her face, which was twisted in lust. Her head was tilted back, her eyes were closed and her mouth was slightly open.

She enjoyed her own touch as much as he enjoyed watching her, but he wanted to make her cum. he wanted to be the reason for her orgasm.

It's all about her.

He swept her hand aside and let his thumb caress her clit while at the same time bending over her so he could engage Mac in a heated kiss.

Fezco loved kissing Mac. Her lips were soft and juicy. Their tongues danced together as if they'd never done anything else, it felt so natural between the two of them that he couldn't imagine the two of them ever having other sexual partners, but that wasn't something Fezco wanted thinking about at the moment.

With every motion he could feel Mac wriggling underneath him with pleasure, wanting, longing for the contact he was giving her. Again he kissed down her half-naked body until he reached her legs to pull the black lace panties off her thighs. Fezco didn't take off the thin fabric completely, after all she was still wearing her high heels, which went up to her calves. For a moment he considered removing her complicated heels, but on the one hand they were just that - complicated, at least in his eyes and on the other hand the thought that she was wearing heels while he pleasured her turned him on.

Fezco placed one finger at the opening of Mac's pussy, moving it slowly.  "God, you feel amazing, Ma."

Mac acknowledged his statement with a soft moan. Her hands rose above her head and grabbed the wooden headboard, to keep herself from losing control of her body. Her eyes were closed, her brow furrowed as she focused on Fezco's touch. Mac literally melted under his hands, but suddenly she lifted her head, wide-eyed. Her hands reached uncontrollably to Fezco's head when she suddenly felt his tongue on her overheatet midsection.

"Oh, god dammit." Her loud moans echo off the walls of the room, echoing in Fezco's ears. He's glad that Ashtray gave them some alone time, because he's sure those are the sounds the boy doesn't want to hear from his older brother's room.

However, he loved every single sound the brunette made. The swearing, the moaning, her soft whimper, it all sounded like the most beautiful melody for him and his cock, which was twitching with pleasure, seem to like Mac's reactions to his tongue play too.

"Does that feel good?" Though her fidgeting under him should be enough of an answer, Fezco wants to make sure Mac really gets her money's worth. She made him feel good - he wants to repay her twice the pleasure.

"Hm-hm. Please don't stop!"

'Suck up on that clit until that pussy got a hickie, baby.' Her inner voice screamed.

His warm breath on her wet pussy combined with his deep voice sends small tingling shockwaves straight into her clit, causing her grip on his head to tighten with both hands. Mac wished she could pull his hair, but since it was too short, she buried one hand in her own hair while the other stayed on his head so she could dig her fingernails into his scalp. The sweet pain drew a deep growl from Fezco.

Fezco felt the brunettes' rapid breathing beneath his hands, which rested on her hips to hold her in place. To give her some rest - and because he himself didn't want it to end so quickly, - he stopped licking her little button with kitten licks and traced his tongue around the outside of her clit.

"You taste so fucking good, mama."

Mac was overwhelmed by the pleasure Fezco gave her. She didn't know what to do with her hands, which kept reaching down uncontrollably over her own body, only to end up resting on Fezco's head or shoulder. It's not the first time that someone eats her out, but Mac was sure she's never been so overwhelmed by someone licking her pussy.

He definitely knew how to licking the mango. Mac thought, while allowing Fezco to lift her bent legs off the bed to drape them over his shoulders.

Everything inside her pulsed, her nipples were rock hard even though Fezco hadn't touched her tits once, her tanned skin was covered with a pleasant goosebump  because his beard tickled her inner thigh and her legs trembled at every touch from the man whose head is between her knees.

Fezco placed his upper lip just above the clitoris, making sure his upper lip covered his teeth so he wouldn't hurt Mac. Then he placed his bottom lip right over her glistening opening and applied some pressure. His hands wandered from her thighs to her ass to pull Mac even closer to him.
Looking up at Mac, he saw the pleasure in her lustful expression.

"Mac,... hmm fuck." Before Fezco could tell the brunette what he wanted from her, she started grinding herself against his face, making him moan. Her pelvis rose and fell off and into the mattress as he licked his tongue over her most sensitive spot.

"You make me feel so good, Fezco." She whimpered as she grabbed hold of his arms. Her long acrylic nails, which they had done just the day before, were digging into his skin, but Fezco didn't mind, he enjoyed Mac letting out whatever she was feeling. She was so naturally.

Fezco's grip on her bare ass tightened as he tilted his head slightly to place his tongue against her wet opening again, but this time he pushed the tip of his tongue into her little hole, causing her to gasp loudly.

"Aaahh fuck." The brunette reflexively withdrew from the skillful movements of his tongue, but Fezco had no intention of allowing that. With a jerk he pulled Mackenna back to him, shaking his head in amusement.

"Nah baby come here, i know you can take it." With that he repeated the whole thing, but this time held Mac's thighs next to his head so that she couldn't flinch away from him again.

"Oh god, yes yes yes yes. Keep doing that! " She moaned, tilting her head back and squeezed her eyes together as she saw black dots dancing in front of them.

"Look at me, i wanna see ya." Fez rasped, before his tongue pushed back into her entrance.

The brunette let out a throaty, porny noise, she never knews he was capable of. Even though it was difficult for her, she obeyed and lifted her head to look down into Fezco's blue eyes. Just the sight of him sucking on her clit almost made her scream and she was sure that if Fezco wasn't holding her legs she would have squeezed her thighs together just to hold him there forever but instead she laid her Hand on his head and grinded towards him.

Fire pooled low in her abdomen, but she tried to ignore it so that she could enjoy Fez's touches a moment longer but she felt she would fail miserably.

And Fezco felt it too.

"I want you to come all over my face."

Just as Mac was about to tell him that oral sex alone wouldn't make her come because it took more to give her an orgasm - or so she thought.

Without any warning, the fire inside her exploded, sending a shiver down her spine. Her vision darkened and she could feel nothing but a total surrender; a free fall. There was no inhibition, no return. It was a sense of levitation followed by a toe-curling spasm.

Fezco held her tight, helping her ride out her orgasm before placing small, tender kisses on her pulbis and inner thighs. Mac on the other hand tried to catch her breath, wiping strands of hair from her slightly sweaty forehead with her left hand.

"Wow." She couldn't get more than that from her lips. She has never had a clitoral orgasm like this before, so this was a brand new experience for her - one she shared with Fezco, she realized as he settled onto the mattress beside her with a more than satisfied grin.

"Yeah, shit was simply incredible."

Chapter Text

To say i was more than surprised to see jules with an injured eye would be a fuckjng understatement, like she just went to get some snacks and drinks and instead comes back with an injury? My assumption that she had been fighting a homeless man over chips was wrong, but I didn't believe her excuse that she had walked into a cooler door left open in the store either.

I mean... i'm a drug addict, not a fucking fool.

But it was the mentioned addiction that prompted me to drop the subject, 'cause instead of snacks and juice drinks, there were joints and vodka that Jules got god knows where from.

Jule'e's father didn't notice anything about our smoking in her room. They have a good bond, he trusted her and vice versa. He was always there for her unlike her alcoholic mother.

Due to her gender disphoria Jules has struggled with her mental health since childhood, something that first got better when she started her transition at age thirteen. When she was sixteen, she gave free rein to her sexual orientation only to realize that a person's gender didn't matter to her.

While her mother took Jules' 11-year-old self to a mental hospital against her will, her father even quit his job to be by his daughter's side during her transition. As if their mother-daughter relationship, which was characterized by alcohol and drug abuse, hadn't been strained enough, the bond of trust was completely torn by this incident.

When Jules and I lay in her bed together for the first time and talked about everything understand the sun, I registered one thing: She hated her life, not because it was bad, but because when you hate your brain and your body, it's hard to enjoy the rest.

The divorce of her parents and the fact that her father was with her during this self-discovery time helped a lot.

As the alcohol coursed through my body and I looked into the blonde's glassy blue eyes, I realized that I wanted to help her too.

Yeah, I wanted to help her be happy and enjoy life. I wanted to help her leave her past behind and show her how fucking beautiful the future can be for us .

Together.

I wanted to help her like I was a freaking marvel superhero.

My first mission was to find out who gave Jules that nasty black eye and set Mac on this person, cause you know,... she definitely has the better punch.

Mac would do great as my sidekick.

"That was just what I needed after this bloody day." With a satisfied sigh, Mac snuggled closer to Fezco's shirtless body. Her head was resting under his chin on his chest, her hand was on his stomach.

She herself had put on one of his T-shirts that was too big for her after a shower. She didn't wear her underwear, because the little cute panties were washed and hung on the clothesline so that she could put them on freshly in the morning. Spontaneously they both decided that Mac would stay the night so they could spend a little more time together. All it took was a quick text message to her mother that she was going to spend the night at Maddie's and the coast was clear.

Because they were both too tired to cook themselves after their act - although Mackenna loved taking care of the two boys - Mac and Fezco decided to just order something.

As the brunette was about to dip one of her nachos into the Mexican guacamole, the front doors opened and Ash entered the apartment. He just grabbed a taco and after just a few words, he disappeared into his room. He was too worn out to deal with the two lovebirds, besides, he was vaguely aware that there was a chick flick on TV, which wasn't something he felt like doing at that moment or any other.

"You know, if the film didn't invoke such nostalgia in me, I would tell you that this..." Mac, another nacho in her hand, pointed at the screen that was playing 'Mean Girls' without taking her eyes off it. "...is actually absolute trash."

Fezco, who had already finished his meal, raised an eyebrow at the girl sitting cross-legged on the sofa next to him. He understood what she meant by 'absolute rubbish', because if it wasn't for her sake he certainly wouldn't have watched this crap, but he wanted to know what Mac was trying to tell him with her statement, after all she was almost begging to see this film together.

It took a moment until Mackenna felt his eyes on her and shifted her eyes from the TV to Fez. She realized his questioning expression and turned more in his direction.

"Okay baby look, first of all the movie is called 'mean girls' and yeah, Regina is a jerk, but let's be honest she's not really mean, she's a go-getter, like, if she were a guy, all we'd be talking about was his ambition and leadership." During her narration, Mac gestured wildly with her hands, something she always did when she was explaining something or speaking passionately about something. Fez liked finding out more and more little things like that about Mac. "And secondly, this film sends a shitty message, like 'it's okay to be bratty and never grow up.' nah to the hell it is not. They're teenagers now and it's okay to be bratty, I mean I'm a brat myself sometimes but they won't be able to go through life like that forever."

Fezco can't help but grin. It doesn't surprise him at all that Mackenna is so self-reflective, because besides her impulsive nature she is very smart, it made him much more proud that she didn't fall for such a trashy film despite the fact that she belonged exactly to her target group.

Mackenna couldn't quite interpret the grin on his part and tilted her head to one side. "Why are you smiling like that? Am I not right?"

Before Fezco answered, he grabbed his pre-rolled joint and lighter from the coffee table. The gesture reminded Mackenna that she was glad to be able to spend time alone in the bathroom, because otherwise she wouldn't have known how to secretly put the bag with half the pill in her school bag.

"Sure Ma, whatever you say." Fezco's voice was a little rough with this sentence, having previously taken a heavy hit of his joint. "I just wonder why a smart girl like you watches such a movie."

Mackenna just shrugged nonchalantly before finally dipping her nacho in the avocado cream and popping it in her mouth. "Like I said, it evokes nostalgia in me."

Her attention didn't return to the TV screen, instead her brown eyes rested on the joint between Fezco's fingers. When he noticed this, he realized how careless he was to consume in front of a drug addict. Without being too obvious, he wanted to stub out the joint in the ashtray in front of him, but before he could do that, Mac's voice stopped him.

"You don't have to stop smoking 'cause of me, I'm fine." Her words were calm, but the slightly bitchy undertone didn't escape him.

"Yeah? And why's that?" Despite her telling him he could smoke his joint, he duly stubbed it out in the ashtray before leaning back on the couch.

"What do you mean 'Why's that?' Are you accusing me of something?" Again Mac's thoughts went to the molly in her purse. Did he notice something? No, the way she got to know Fezco, he addresses such issues immediately. He wasn't someone who waited for the perfect moment, but rather wanted to use communication to resolve such things without any arguments. Knowing this, Mac pushed aside her guilty conscience and kept up her facade of not knowing what he was talking about.


Fezco looked at her face from the TV, somewhat taken aback by Mac's attitude. He knew the look she wore - she felt attacked. That wasn't his intention, he just wanted to flirt a little and hear from her that the reason she was fine was that he ate her pussy so well. Realizing Mac must have misunderstood his insinuation, he reached for the bowl of nachos in her hand.

"Nah, we're not doing that now baby. I didn't mean to imply anything, nor did I mean to offend you." After placing both the bowl of chips and the dip on the table, he pulled Mac into his arms. He gently stroked her still damp curls and kissed her temple. "I'm sorry if it sounded like that."

Mac snuggled into Fezco's chest and took a deep breath. She quickly realized that she was exaggerating once again. She knew a man like Fezco didn't deserve this. He was too good to her to be treated like that. "No, I'm sorry. It's just... the thing with Nate and then Jules... I'm sorry." The brunette lifted her head to look at Fezco. He returned her sad look with a loving one. "I didn't cheat on him." Although she felt like crying, she held back the tears.

"Crying is for the weak and pathetic and you should stop doing it ."

Words from her mother that Mackenna heard when she was a child, when she fell and hurt herself or when she was heartbroken because of Nate. Ophelia Donahue truly believed that a boy or a man would not find a weak woman attractive and the shedding of tears was a definite sign of weakness for the upper class lady.

Even if Mac saw the whole thing to the contrary, sentences like this burned themselves into her brain. She couldn't help but stick to those memorable phrases because she didn't have much else that her mother gave her.

Fezco's hand on her chin pulled Mac out of her thoughts. Softer than ever before, he planted a kiss on her lips before meeting her eyes. "I know."

Two words that meant a lot to Mackenna. She didn't care if her classmates believed she was the one who cheated on Nate, but it was important to her that the man whose arms she was in knew she wasn't someone cheating on the people she loved.

Fezco wasn't blind, of course he saw the tears in her eyes, but he knew that Mackenna wasn't willing to cry in front of him and so he didn't ask her about it, but caressed her cheek and spoke to her in a soft voice. "Let's go to bed baby."

And there they were at that moment, snuggled up to each other, happy to have each other.

"That was just what I needed after this bloody day."

Fez pondered that sentence again. He thought it was cute when Mac spoke with her Geordie accent. Growing up in America, this didn't happen often, which made it all the more special for him. He looked down at her with a smirk on his lips while casually running his hand through her curls.

"An unforgettable orgasm?"

Mackenna can't help but snort in amusement. Her hand, previously resting on his stomach, slid to his bare chest as she propped herself up a little to look at Fez.

"So you think I can't give myself an orgasm?" Her perfectly plucked eyebrows were raised challenging at her question.

With a chuckle, Fezco ran his hand down her back, which was covered by one of his shirts, to her round ass. "Shit ma, I saw you could, but I was talking about an orgasm you won't forget."

The brunette just rolled her eyes playfully as she settled a little more comfortably on Fezco's chest, tracing different shapes on it with her index finger. "No, for real baby. My day really sucked. First I have to find out that my shitty ex-boyfriend made it look like I cheated on him although it was the other way around, then the fight with you in the morning, not to forget the thing with my principal and finally the argument with Jules." There was a little pause as Mac's brown eyes met his blue ones. "But you made this day better. And I don't just mean the unforgettable orgasm." Both burst out laughing before Mac put her hand on his cheek and got more serious. "Thank you."

In response, Fezco put his hand on her neck and pulled her up for a kiss. This kiss was more sensual than the previous one. He kissed her like she wanted to be kissed, moist, hot and breathy. Neither of them tried to get the upper hand but seeking closeness.

Until, without warning, Mac broke that kiss and looked at Fezco with slightly foggy eyes. The kiss between them left her anything but cold.

Fez, not knowing what was going on, returned the brunette beauty's look with a questioning one. Without having to say anything, Mac answered his unspoken question. "We ordered food, although you took vegetable lasagna from the store for us." She explained to him with a pout. The young girl seemed to think for a moment before waving her hand  in a 'i don't care' manner. "Ah whatever. I was hungry for something spicy anyway." Playing innocently, she brought one of her fingers to her lips and took one of the acrylic nails into her mouth with a smirk.

Fezco also had a grin on his face, tilting his head slightly and looking at Mac in disbelief. "Damn, that's what you think about when we kiss?" His tired, deep voice made Mac's abdomen tingle.

The brunette didn't break their eye contact for a second, not even when she took her hand from her full lips to reach for his that lay casually on his stomach. "Speaking of spicy..." Mac's voice was raspy and low as she guided Fezco's hand between her thighs. He gasped when he felt that the girl in his bed was wearing his shirt but no underwear at all. The thought of spending the whole evening with her without her wearing panties turned him on.

Until...

"So you opened the door for the delivery dude just in that shirt?" He scolded in her ear while running his lips over the soft skin of her neck and sliding his fingers between her folds. "That's not how good girls behave."

Mac tilted her head to give Fezco more room to kiss her pulse tenderly. "You should have known by now that I'm not the good girl next door... ahhhh fuck." Her breath hitched as Fez circled his thumb over her sensible button, causing her to part her thighs a little more and her nails to dig into his upper arm.

To be more comfortable, Fez turned more toward Mac, almost hovering over her petite Body. His mouth slid from her neck up to her chin until it touched her sensual lips, who were eagerly waiting to be taken possession of by him. Before he kissed her, he whispered a few words and slipped his index and middle finger into her more than ready opening.

"I'm fucking glad you aren't."

Surprise Surprise Mac and Fez didn't fuck that night either, Which was prolly more 'cause neither of them had a condom with them than 'cause they didn't feel like having sex.  It didn't hurt their night together one bit tho, he finger fucked her, she gave him a hand job, everything was fine between them.

I knew Mac well enough to know that she secretly liked that Fez was out of condoms 'cause it meant he wasn't having sex with other girls for a longer period of time. She really didn't give two fucks if a boy had other chicks standing on the sideline , but of course it was different with Fez.

Well, what can I say, my night wasn't quite as exciting as my two best friends' night, but it was okay 'cause I spent the night with Jules. Her initially bad mood changed after the first joint and even though absolutely nothing was going on between us, I enjoyed lying next to her.

Above all, I enjoyed that the thoughts of Mac quieted down.

At 6:45 am sharp, Mac's phone alarm rang, which she had turned on the night before so she wouldn't oversleep. Something she regretted at that moment. She picked up the annoying ringing thing from the bedside table and squinted at the display to find the off switch. After she found him and the ringing noise stopped, she rolled onto her side, cell phone in hand, draped her arm across Fezco's torso and snuggled under his chin to continue sleeping.

"What are you doing, mama?" If Fez's voice hadn't been so calm and raspy, the brunette probably would have been startled by the sudden sound of it, but she kept her eyes closed and enjoyed his fingers caressing her bare shoulder gently. "Wake up baby, you gotta go to school."

An indefinable noise escaped Mac as she tiredly pressed deeper into his chest. "I've just decided that I don't want to go today. Fucking school is doing just fine without me."

As funny as he found her mumbling, he wouldn't let Mac skip school, not only did he know from his own experience how important it is to get a degree in order to get a decent job, he also knew that Ash would then refuse to go to school as well, simply because it wouldn't be fair otherwise. "Nah baby, get your sexy ass out of bed and get ready. I'm going to make us sum breakfast." With a kiss on the top of her head, he gently pushed her aside and got off the mattress. He briefly scanned the floor for his yesterday's underwear, but then decided to put on fresh ones and went to his closet where he took out a pair of boxers, a white wife beater and a beige tracksuit.

After putting on his clothes, he glanced at Mac only to find her falling asleep again with his pillow in her arms. "Come on now baby, you really need to get up." Fez was sure she heard him, but chose to ignore him on purpose. "Mackenna!"

Although his voice rose only slightly, the brunette cringed at the sound of her full name coming out of Fezco's mouth. She grimaced sleepily as she lifted her head off Fez's pillow and sat up to lean against the headboard. "Damn, i heard ya." Still decidedly tired, she rubbed her tiny fists over her eyes. The sight made Fez chuckle, who was about to zip up his sweatshirt.

His blue eyes look at the tired girl. Worshiped her. Mac was adorable as she sat in front of him - no make-up, wrinkled face, tousled curls and the thin blanket pulled up to her shoulders.

When the brunette caught his gaze, she cocked her head with a slight grin. "What are you looking at?" She teased. Fezco shrugged and grabbed a pair of white socks from his closet drawer. Mac waited for the moment when he looked up again to slowly, in a seductive manner, slip the sheet off one of her shoulders. Neither stayed dressed last night, Fez freed the girl from the oversized shirt while Mac took off his boxers. Both landed carelessly on the ground. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay in bed?" A mischievous grin graced her full lips at that question.

Fez couldn't help but chuckle. As much as he would love to pin the brunette beauty to his mattress and bang her senseless, he knew he had to be the one in charge. With an amused shake of his head, he walked over to Mac, where he sat on the edge of the bed. He cupped her cheek tenderly while trying to keep his eyes off her bare breast. "You have no idea what I would like to do with you right now." These words in combination with his husky voice were an absolute turn on for Mac but before she could even properly realize the tingling between her legs, Fezco dropped his hand and stood up. "But shit like school is important."

"You're a fucking tease, dude!" She complained as she flopped back onto the pillows and draped one over her face. She really had no motivation to go to school that day. Not only did she only get a few hours of sleep due to her exciting night, she also didn't feel like seeing the people there. People like Nate, Lexi or Jules. Besides, she could imagine doing much better things than sitting in class for several hours: watching a tv show, cooking a dish or fool around with her hot ginger.

Reaching his door, Fezco paused and turned to face the girl in his bed, a grin on his face. "And you're such a brat." He said under his breath.

Mac practically tossed the pillow aside as she glared at Fez mock-angry. "What was that?"

– "I asked ya if ya wanted bread for breakfast."

"That's rubbish!" She squinted her eyes at him before she threw the covers aside and got off the bed.

Completely naked.

Fezco ran his hand almost shyly over his shaved hair. An appealing sight for the brunette who bent down to slip on the shirt she was wearing yesterday. "Damn... Woman." He shook his head again, but this time to focus on what he actually wanted to do - which was to make breakfast. To Mac's little giggle, he turned away from her and walked down the hall towards the kitchen.

Cheeky lil girl will bis the death of me.

After Fezco freshened up briefly in the bathroom and then made a quick bowl of 'cookie chips' for himself, Mac and Ashtray, Mackenna headed into the bathroom to get on with her morning routine. This of course ended up being a bit smaller than the routine she followed at home simply because she didn't have all the products she used every day, but the brunette coped. Fez even had a fresh toothbrush and moisturizer for her for which she was very grateful.

After that she went back to his bedroom and took care of her hair. She was just in the process of tying the upper part of her brownish curls with a hair tie in front of his wardrobe mirror when Fezco entered the room. He immediately noticed that Mac was stealing another Tee from him and grinned when he caught her eye in the mirror. "Interesting color choice."

– "Partner look never goes out of fashion." She answered smartly, looking at the beige shirt she was wearing.

"Word?" Is all he asked, although it was more rhetorical than actual interest, because even though he had his own style of clothing, he didn't give a damn about what was in or out in the fashion world.

"Hm-hm," Mac confirmed playfully, then searched the room for her purse before realizing she had left it in the living room the previous evening. She poked out her bottom lip as she looked over her shoulder at Fezco. "Could you please get my purse from the living room?" She asked sweetly, batting her eyelashes.

With an amused snort, Fez started to leave the room. "Everything for you, princess." He mocked.

"It's on the round table." She called after him, but by then Fezco had almost got back to her. He held out the small pink bag to her and sat back on the end of his bed. "Thanks, baby."

– "What do ya need that shit for?"

Unimpressed by his question, Mac turned her head towards him and gestured with her finger in her face.  "Do you see that? It needs a little glow up."

That statement made Fezco look in disbelief at the girl who was sitting on her knees in front of his closet. "What the fuck are you talking about, Bruh? Shit's hella fine."

She dropped her purse in her lap and looked lovingly at the man who had pleasured her so well last night. "You're too cute, boo bear." Fez tried to ignore the warm feeling that spread through his heart at the use of that nickname and focused on Mac unzipping her bag. "But like for real. I need a little concealer after last night to look fresh. You wore me out a little."

Words of praise that brought a proud grin to Fez's face while Mac fumbled in her purse for her 'la prairie' concealer. However, he stopped smiling when Mac pulled the make-up product out of her bag and with it a lip liner, a lip gloss and a small package with half a pill in it fell out.

"Shit." The brunette was about to pick up the drug from the floor, but Fezco was quicker. He hurriedly grabbed it and took a closer look, although he could already guess what the contents were.

Disappointed but hard-eyed, he looked at Mac, who was biting her lip nervously and avoiding eye contact until his demanding voice rang out.

"Where did you get that shit from?" 

Notes:

Author's note; I'm sorry that i haven't uploaded anything new for a while, although the last chapter received really good reviews. Thanks for that sweethearts. As a small compensation, this chapter was a bit longer and also a little bit cute.


How do you think Fez will react to finding the drugs? Will they fight again? Will they be able to talk about it? I'm very curious what you think, so lemme know. (:

Hey Sweeties. 

I can't believe it, it feels so unreal, doesn't it? I don't know about you guys, but I'm speechless...

Just speechless. 

I don't even know what to say other than that of course I hope he rests in peace. 

I was actually in the process of writing a new chapter for this story at the moment, but somehow it feels wrong now. I don't know if you can understand that, but I don't even know if it would be the right thing to continue writing. 

Don't get me wrong, this story means a lot to me and actually I would love to tell the story of Fezco and Mac, but I don't know if I can. maybe that's just the shock that speaks out of me, but i wanted to be so fair and let you know that. 

Maybe I'll keep writing and a chapter will come soon.

Maybe it will take a while for a new chapter to come. 

Maybe there won't be a chapter at all, but this wouldn't feel right either.

I just do not know.

I will update you again on this.

Love!!!!

Chapter Text


If there's one thing to say about Mac, it's that this bitch is sturborn as fuck. A five year old donkey is nothing against this girl, like one day we were at the 'Crispy Bun' a small burger joint in our town and the only one that sold good veggie burgers. At least that's what Mac says.

So we stood at the counter and ordered our shit. While Mac wanted a quinoa burger, I ordered a juicy cheesburger for myself. The blonde chick behind the counter eyed me and Mac as soon as we entered the shop, but I always ignored things like that, Mac, on the other hand, usually didn't notice it at all 'cause she was only moderately interested in her surroundings, however, the disgusted look that the waitress gave me when she heard what I wanted was very noticeable to us.

She wasn't much older than us, maybe in her twenties and she was definitely new as neither Mac nor I had seen the blonde behind the counter before. Later we found out that it was her first day at the 'The Crispy Bun' and thanks to Mackenna also her last, 'cause after that bitch told me in a very rude tone that cheesburgers were out and that I should order a salad anyway, the disaster began.

Mac tried to explain to the underprivileged waitress that she could just put cheese on a normal burger 'cause a cheesburger is nothing more than a normal burger is only with fucking cheese, but the blonde bitch didn't want to hear anything about it, instead she demanded that we leave the Restaurant. Mac, in turn, demanded to speak to someone responsible.

They argued back and forth, insulted each other with every imaginable insult and I was sure that if the store manager hadn't come, Mac would have dragged that skinny ass hoe over the counter by her ponytail.

Sis just had too much temperament in her lil body, but damn... I'd be lying if I said I didn't find it very hot at times when Mac was about to throw her fist, especially if she did it to stand up for me.

But uh, let's get back to her stubbornness: after a brief exchange with the boss about what had happened, Mac demanded that the waitress be fired. She not only demands it, but also explains this demand by saying that there are enough people with eating disorders or self-doubt and sentences like "You should rather eat a salad." from a stranger could make deep wounds even deeper.

I could tell she were thinking of Kat and Maddy, both of whom were always having doubts about their bodies.

Long story short: The manager wanted the matter dealt with internally and without kicking out the blonde waitress, but Mac wanted her request to be implemented.

She didn't want to eat a burger in a restaurant where the waitresses body-shamed the customers.

And I? I just wanted to take our order and take Mac back to the lake to chill there like before. I mean, I loved Mac for standing up for me like that, it was sexy and all, but damn was I hungry.

But Mac wouldn't be Mac if she hadn't gotten her way. She whispered something into the man's ear and suddenly he couldn't get rid of the blonde behind the counter fast enough.

She never told me what she whispered to him, but I was sure it had something to do with her mother. Ophelia Donahue was pretty much the biggest influence in this damn town, so no wonder the manager didn't discuss it further after that.

So Mackenna's stubborn ass had made sure that the blonde bitch was fired, 'cause if Mac wanted something, then she pushed it through with all her might.

Fezco didn't get an answer when he asked where she got the Molly from her purse.

Basically, he didn't get an answer for anything anymore, because Mac ignored him and instead calmly went on with her make-up. It wasn't much, a little concealer, bronzer and lipgloss to make her lips look juicier. Finally, she brushed her thick eyebrows and straightened her eyelash extensions.

Satisfied with her look, she packed each product in her purse and got up to leave the room. She'd heard Fez ask where she got the pills and when she'd taken them, but deliberately ignored him.

That really pissed off Fezco, who followed her down the hall. "Yo, don't ice me out here, bruh."

Again he got no answer as Mac sat down at the round table in front of one of the bowls filled with cereal, picked it up and put a spoonful of 'cookie chips' in her mouth. She pulled her leg onto the chair so she could easily rest one of her arms on her knee. She noticed Fez's annoyed sigh but ignored that as well.

Ashtray, who had almost finished his breakfast, stopped sipping the milk from his bowl and looked back and forth between his brother and the girl in front of him with a frown. "I'm going to pack my school bag." Without another word, Ash left the room. He had noticed that another discussion was going on and definitely didn't want to be part of it.

As the door to Ashtray's room slammed shut, Fezco turned back to the brunette, who was still eating her cereal. He took a deep breath to quell his frustration at the fact that she was mad at him and ignoring him before he spoke to her.

"So lemme take this straight." In order to communicate with her as equals, Fezco sat down in the chair his little brother had been sitting in, but Mac avoided eye contact. "You mad at me 'cause you fucked up? You mad 'cause you got caught? 'Cause I called you out on your shit?" His voice was calm but firm as he tossed the little bag of half a pill onto the table. "Because you gotta face the truth of your behavior? You told me last night that you don't want to do drugs anymore, that you're fine and shit. No coke, no pills, nothing and then fucking molly falls out of your pocket? You lied to my face and I just can't fuck with that."

With an annoyed snort, Mackenna put the almost empty cereal bowl on the table with a loud clink. "Okay, yeah, i lied. So what? You're a drug dealer, it makes you money, so what's your problem?" She knew how unfair she was being to Fezco right now, but she couldn't help it. She was in defensive mode and didn't know what else to do. There was no one growing up who ever stood up for her or taught her coping tactics. Mac always had to stand up for herself and learned from herself how best to do it: Attack others to avoid being vulnerable yourself.

It worked for others, but not for Fezco, who already saw through the girl. "Nah baby, don't try to flip things on me 'cause you're ashamed of yourself. Fezco clasped his hands on the wooden surface and leaned toward Mac, who was still avoiding his gaze. "See I'm extremely understanding but I'm not gonna allow myself to overlook how you disrespected me. So either we're honest with each other or..." –

"Or what?" Finally Mac looked up from her hands, which she nervously played with under the table. Even if you couldn't hear it in her defensive voice, the girl also felt nervousness inside. She didn't want to give up what she had with Fezco. Mac didn't know what it was that the two shared, but it felt good. Too good to let go of this feeling.

Fezco saw the slight worry in the brunette's brown eyes, so he grabbed her hand. "I know it's not easy to get off drugs as an addict, but I can help you, you just have to let me."

On reflex, Mac pulled her hand out of his grasp. "I'm not an addict."

There it was again - her defensive manner. Fez couldn't help but smile slightly. "You know that's what any addict would say, Ma."

That sentence managed to get Mac laughing before the fact that the man in front of her was way too good to her bitchy ass brought tears to her sad eyes. She lied to him, punished him with the silend treatment and then tried to blame him for her own mistake. And all Fezco did was offer her his help. She didn't deserve that - she didn't deserve him.

A tear rolled down her cheek as she realized that no one ever offered her help, at least not that kind of help. Anyone who knew about her drug addiction just accepted it.

"It's just so easy." Mac's voice wasn't louder than a whisper in the wind, but Fezco understood her, and he also understood that what she meant by these words was that situations seem easier to deal with when you're high.

He could hardly bear the fact that more and more tears ran down her beautiful face, which is why he reached out to her again.

"C'mere."

The teenage girl took his large hand and let him pull her onto his lap. Mac immediately buried her face in the soft fabric of his jacket as he stroked her curls comfortingly.

"We can do this."

Four little words from him that gave Mac hope.


After Mackenna calmed down and freshened up a bit, Fezco insisted on driving her and Ashtray to school. With her car still parked in front of Fez's store from driving his to his crip the day before, the brunette didn't have a problem with that. The only thing she missed was listening to her music. Instead of songs from the early 2000s, there was hip hop from the 90s, which was okay for Mac, but not the best.

It wasn't long before they arrived at Ashtray's school and the boy got out of the car looking unmotivated. Something Mac was visibly amused.

"Have a nice day at school, Lil -Ash." She teased with a giggle.

"You seem to be suffering from delusions of adequacy." Was his mumbled reply before approaching a group of boys his own age and greeting them with their special handshake. As he was about to head for the school building with his friends, a loud and penetrating car horn caught his and his boys' attention.

He scoffed as his narrowed eyes fell on the car he had exited moments before. Mac sat back in the passenger seat after she honked the horn several times and leaned out the open window to wave silly at him.

His reaction was his middle finger before he turned away and started walking towards the school entrance. "Fucking weirdo." He muttered with a ghost of a smile.

Ashtray knew she was doing this to lovingly embarrass him in front of his friends and was already thinking of ways to get revenge on the brunette.

His buddy's voice distracted him from that, though. "Yo, who was that?"

The boy, sporting the eyebrow slit, rolled his hazel eyes. He didn't answer on purpose, but just kept walking, a mistake he regretted shortly afterwards.

"She's so hot I would happily lose my penis in the molten lava inside her pussy if that meant getting to have sex with her for 5 fucking seconds." Said the horny pre-teen dreamily while indiscreetly pointing at his crotch. "Damn man, I would walk two miles through broken glass just so I can masturbate at her shad..." –

Before he could finish his sentence, he was pinned against the front door by an angry Ashtray. "She's my brother's girl, if you talk about her like that again, I'll take your eyes out, rip off your balls and put them in your eye socket, do you understand me?"

Ashtray's other friends stood a little apart made sure that no one interfered or informed a teacher, but anyone knew better than to mess with the gangster Kid.

"Calm down, bro. I was just Joki..." –

"I asked you a question!" Ashtray hissed, pressing the asshole at his jacket collar tighter against the glass door.

"Yeah, yeah. Damn, yeah I understand." He held up his arms in surrender.

With one last glare, Ashtray let go of the boy's clothes and walked leisurely and contentedly into the classroom.

Yeah, maybe he wasn't exactly telling the truth when he said Mac was Fezco's girl, but on the one hand he wanted to tell his friends that she was off limits - even if it was just about daydreaming - and on the other hand she was kinda Fez's girl.

They kissed almost continuously, snuggled together on the sofa, Fez even wanted to cook with her although he couldn't cook at all and what they were doing behind the closed bedroom door probably every neighbor could tell after last night.

Maybe this was just a friendship with benefits kinda thing, but to Ashtray, Mac already belonged to Fezco.

It wasn't ten minutes before Fezco parked his car in one of East Highland High School's parking lots. They got out of the vehicle and used the free time they had before Mac's first class started to talk with each other.

Well, more or less.

The older boy leaned against his car while he held Mac in his arms in front of him and kissed her repeatedly on the mouth. He couldn't get enough of her full, soft lips and vice versa.

Everyone could see that, including Nate Jacobs, who could already feel anger coursing through his veins. It disgusted him to see the two of them together - how the drug dealer's hands touch his girl's body, how his lips kissed the mouth he was supposed to kiss and how he managed to make her laugh like only he could before.

Both Fezco and Mac already noticed the penetrating look of the unwelcome ex-boyfriend.

"I still don't understand why you saved his ass." Fez noted while glaring at the younger Jacobs brother.

The brunette glanced over her shoulder before smirking and turning back to Fezco. She lovingly placed her hand on his cheek to draw his attention to her. "Forget him." After those breathy words, the brunette slipped her hands behind his neck and leaned up towards him.

Fezco's hands rested on her lower back as their lips met, he would have loved to slide them down a bit, but the knowledge that she was on school property kept him from doing so. He was just about to forget the thought of beating up Nate for what he had done to Mac when their passionate kiss was interrupted by someone clearing their throat.

It was his blue eyes that first met the two people standing behind Mackenna before the brunette also turned around only to turn away with a more than annoyed eye roll. She didn't even notice that her long acrylic nails dug into the fabric of Fezco's jacket.

"Um hey Mac, I wanted to..." –

"Make her go away or I'll complete her black eye look." The teenage girl said with a menacing voice. She avoided the sight of Jules and her best friend. As sorry as she was for ignoring Rue at that moment, she couldn't bear being near Jules. Not after she played the sextape in front of Fezco and then told him it was her cheating on Nate.

All of this was stuff Rue didn't know about, which is why she looked back and forth between the blonde and Mac in reasonable confusion until she realized her best friend's words.

"You gave Jules the black eye?" Her voice sounded more shocked than she wanted. Rue hadn't believed Jules' poor excuse, but she hadn't considered that it was Mac who mauled her like that either.

She didn't get an answer. The blonde was still trying to find the right words. Even if it still gave her ego a little sting to see Mac and the drug dealer so intimately together, she had to admit that the brunette wasn't interested in her. Especially not after what she had done.

If she couldn't have Mac in bed, the least she wanted was to be friends with her. This was twisty, but Jules convinced herself it was for Rue's sake, after all, the two were best friends - the blonde didn't want to stand in the way. Not now that she and Rue were getting closer.

"Mackenna I..." –

Before Jules could even get a sentence out, Mac had turned around in Fezco's arms and was walking towards the blonde.

"Don't you dare speak my name!" Her words, dripping with poison, made Jules flinch. "Actually, don't ever come near me again, or I'll make your life a living hell." With every word she stretched out her finger to the blonde, which made her appear even more threatening in addition to her calm voice, even if she was a few centimeters shorter than Jules.

Fezco, sensing Mac was in danger of raging again, gently grabbed her hand and pulled it back to his chest.

"Come on man, she doesn't want to talk to you."

Jules glared at the drug dealer for a moment before snorting and grabbing Rue's hand to walk away.

While she clutched his jacket again almost for protection, Fez grabbed her face with both hands and made her look at him. The pain in her doe eyes was almost palpable and Fez knew from her story yesterday where this pain came from, after all she was accused of cheating on Nate - the boy she once loved - although it was the other way around.

He ignored the strange feeling he got when he thought about the bubbly girl loving this bastard so much that he was capable of causing her such pain. Fez wanted nothing more than to be there for her and not being good with words, he leaned down and kissed her with all the feelings he felt at that moment.

It helped.

The brunette couldn't ignore the sickness in her stomach caused by the sight of Jules and the memory that came with it, but she could handle it better. Something she usually only managed with her blood full of coke.

For the first time since her addiction, Mac felt like she could actually do it without drugs. All she needed was Fezco.

Chapter Text


In small towns everyone knows everyone. You know your neighbors' names, know what they do for a living, know their weekly shopping routine and know who they fuck with. It was no different in East Highland, especially at the high school, where tea was spilled like only 3 o'clock in the afternoon in England. 

So it was no wonder that topic number two that day was Mackenna Donahue's supposed new relationship with the local drug dealer. 

The number one topic was still Mac and Kat's sex tapes.

"Hey Kat, how about you and Mac make a video together." The Brazilian girl looked at Brad, a blonde guy she had a biology class with. The teenager held two of his fingers in a V shape in front of his mouth and stuck out his tongue. A gesture intended to show oral sex between two women. 


What an idiot, Kat thought as she held out her middle finger to the boy. She had to listen to such or similar sayings the day before, even though the McKay twins had already deleted the video and made it clear that the sex tape was not about her, even if that was a lie. 


"Is there even one boy here who is less primitive than all the dicks." The girl with the dark bob sighed as she walked alongside the girls. 


"I don't know what you're upset about, unlike Mac, you can't really be recognized in the video." Answered BB, who was slowly but surely annoyed by Kat's complaining.  


"Yeah, but unlike Mac, I don't look like a fucking hot porn star." Kat huffed, the venom in her voice unmistakable. She felt misunderstood by her friends. Even though the sex tape gave her an idea that would make her a lot of money, she felt uncomfortable at the thought of her entire school assuming she was the girl in the ass-fuck video, even though the McKay twins had dispelled this rumor - which actually wasn't a rumor because it was true. 


"Calm down Kat, no one is going to talk about this video anymore after what you just saw in the school parking lot." Maddy said casually as they continued walking through school buildings. The Latina knew as well as anyone that rumors like these are only interesting until there's something new to talk about. "And there is our star of the hour."

LiL-Ashtray 🍼👶🏻

SHUT up 


With a giggle, Mac closed her chat with Ashtray and looked up when she heard Maddy squeal. The brunette had no choice but to endure her Latina friend's embrace as she came running in her high heels and threw her arms around her neck. Mackenna had a lot of love for her girls, but affections like that were hard for her unless they came from Rue or, well, Fezco. 


She knew that the reason for this was her fear of commitment. If she didn't allow a close bond, she couldn't lose it. Things were different with Rue. She basically grew up with her. So the bond between them was formed without Mac being able to do anything about it, furthermore, her love for Rue was different than for Maddy, Kat or BB. It wasn't that she had any less love for these three than she did for Rue, it was just different - a different kind of love.


And with Fez... she just messed around with him. At least that's exactly what the brunette told herself to silence her fears of commitment. 


"Bitch, why didn't you tell me that you and Fezco are a fucking couple now?" Maddy let go of Mac and looked at her mockingly reproachfully before she leaned against the locker next to Mackenna's with a grin and stared dreamily at the ceiling. "You guys are literally so cute together." 


Mac closed her locker with a bang after pulling out all the supplies for her class and answered the Latina without looking at her because she was too busy adjusting the books in her arms. 


"I didn't tell you anything 'cause there's nothing to tell. We're not a couple or some shit. We're just friends, that's all." 


An incredulous snort escaped the black-haired girl as she pushed herself away from the locker. "Stop playing, bitch. I saw you two kissing." She pointed her manicured index finger at Mac, who rolled her eyes in response. "That's definitely not how you kiss when you're just friends."


The fact that Maddy emphasized those words like that triggered something in the brunette. Without hesitation, she pressed her books against the chest of an approaching classmate before turning back to the Latina, who looked at her somewhat confused. Before she could say anything about her best friend's behavior, Mac pushed her back against the lockers by her shoulders and kissed her like she hadn't in a long time. 


Maddy was so perplexed at first that she couldn't do anything at first, but when she noticed Mac's tongue grazing her bottom lip, she willingly opened her mouth and returned the heated kiss. The Latina could taste a slight hint of mint, which made the kiss even more pleasant for her. Her hands, which until then had been hanging almost helplessly in the air next to her body, placed themselves on Mac's hips. Mac, on the other hand, twindet her fingers in Maddy's black hair and clanched it into a fist while she sloppily licked into her best friends mouth. Maddy couldn't do anything about the brathy sounds that were escaping her lips, the feeling she felt during the kiss with Mackenna was too overwhelming. It was so intense that the Perez girl forgot everything around her.


If the brunette kissed everyone like that, then Maddy knew why she was so sought after by the boys at her school. It wasn't just that her soft lips felt good against your own, but also the feeling that Mac gave you with such a kiss - she was welcoming you, making you feel right. 


The Perez-Girl had no experience with girl, but she was sure that this was one of the best make out sessions she had had, even if it was very short-lived.


With a smacking sound, their lips parted and the Latina opened her eyes, which she didn't even know she had closed, and looked into the grinning face of her best friend - her good-kissing best friend.


"See, I kissed you like Fez, are we a couple now?"Mac asked ironically, taking her books from the guy she had previously handed them to. 


The slim teenage boy with short, brownish hair stared between Maddy and Mac with his mouth wide open. He couldn't believe his luck at being able to watch the two hottest and most popular people in this school making out up close. 


And he wasn't alone, other students were also watching this scene, including BB, Cassie, Kat and Lexi, who were still standing at Maddy's locker on the opposite side. 


"What was that?" Cassie asked, somewhat unsure what to think of the scenario she saw. Mac made no secret of the fact that she didn't care about the gender she was fucking with, but that wasn't the case with Maddy. Her oldest best friend had never mentioned that she might also be into women and besides, she was also dating Nate, so seeing her making out with Mackenna was strange for the blonde.


"Definitely the sexiest thing I've seen in a long time." Kat replied, still looking at her two friends. "But I would say that was Mac in her natural prime." The staring looks from the other girls make the Brazilian look into the round. "Or not? I mean come on, this is Mackenna we're talking about, she's done worse." She shrugged the whole thing off, because she thought that what was just happening there wasn't anything unusual, considering what her youngest friend had already had done.


"But I thought she was with the drug dealer?" The older Howard sister's blonde eyebrows furrowed with her question. 


Instead of an immediate answer, she got an annoyed look from Lexi. "His name is Fezco." 


"Yeah, whatever." BB, who was happily licking her cherry lollipop, interrupted the siblings' staredown by joining in the conversation. "I don't know why y'all so surprised, 'cause in case you haven't noticed, Mac is a free spirit, like she's literally a tiny little bitch who isn't made for relationships." The girl with huge loop earrings meant her snarky comment without any malicious ulterior motives, but simply stated what she was convinced was a fact.  


Lexi had enough of this conversation, clutched the folders in her arms tighter and left the small group with a roll of her eyes, leaving the other confused. 


The younger Howard sister could really think of better things to do than listen to who Mackenna Donahue had a thing with and who she didn't. That changed from minute to minute anyway.


She just hoped that Fezco noticed this  quickly and didn't let her appearance influence him, because he deserved so much better.


"No, but now I wish we were one." Maddy joked, still recovering from the kiss with Mac. It wasn't that she had developed inexplicable feelings for the brunette out of nowhere, she just enjoyed that little making out-session. For her, as for Mackenna, it was a very hot, very sloppy kiss - nothing more, nothing less.


Without answering, Mac started moving with a giggle so she wouldn't be late for her class. There was a grin on her lips, but her thoughts only revolved around one topic. 


Fezco.



"Hello Mackenna Leilani, I'm happy to welcome you here."


The teenage girl had to admit that she hadn't expected to be sitting in anger management class in front of a comparatively young man who she might have seen walking down the school hallway once or twice before, but that's exactly what she did at that moment.


The man, whose name she didn't know yet, was perhaps only in his mid-thirties, with dark, slightly slicked-back hair and a beard that he'd definitely let grow for a little longer than just three days. His light button-down shirt was tucked into dark suit pants, which were combined with black patent leather shoes and a belt of the same color with a gold buckle.


There was no denying that this teacher was good-looking, even his brown tie with strange flowers and check pattern didn't match the rest of his elegant outfit. Visually he doesn't look like a typical teacher, only the clipboard in his hand and the way he sits cross-legged on a chair give it away.


That doesn't make the fact that she's in a class she won't be in any better. With a more than obvious exasperated groan, Mac leaned back in her chair. 


"Bloody hell." The brunette leaned her head back over the back of the chair and rubbed her face with her hands before her brown eyes settled on the teacher, ignoring the presence of three other boys who sat in their chairs in a semicircle. "Can we please not?"


"What do you mean?" The young man tilted his head in interest as he looked into Mackenna's exhausted face. He involuntarily wondered where this tiredness could come from. 


"All that full name shit." The brunette replied while maintaining eye contact. "I mean, I get it. They put a hip young teacher in front of us and hope we'll open up to him. Well, it's a shame that won't happen, so you're wasting your time. You could literally be sitting at home with a good book enjoying your end of work, taking a walk in the park or spending time with your partner, but instead you're sitting here hoping I'll be cooperative, but lemme tell you something, i'm not the problem." With a slightly arrogant expression, Mac finished her little speech.


The man's reaction was a chuckle. Not one that was intended to laugh at the young girl, but one that even contained a hint of admiration. After what Principal Hayes had already told him about the Donahue-girl, he was not at all surprised by the brunette's behavior, but he still found it quite interesting how quickly she fell into coping mechanisms. Instead of dealing with herself, she directs the topic to those who confront her. 


"Okay, what would you like me to call you?" He asked, ignoring the rest of what the teenager said. 


"Mac is fine." 


He acknowledged her answer with a nod. "Alright Mac, I'm Mr. Mayfield and I'm less of a teacher, more like a trainer who wants to teach you how to better deal with your emotions."


"I have complete control over my emotions." Her mood was already irritable from the start, but her tone became even harder with these words.


"Is that so?" He quirked an eyebrow at the girl, but didn't wait for an answer as he sat up slightly in his seat and continued speaking. "Then why are you here?" 


"I’m here 'cause Hayes wants me to."


It didn't go unnoticed by Mr. Mayfield that Mac sat up too. A sign that she felt threatened and had no problem being confrontational. That was exactly what he wanted, because only when Mackenna came out of hiding could he work properly with her.


Pursing his lips, Mr. Mayfield nodded his head repeatedly. "I understand." His brown eyes narrowed slightly. "But Principal Hayes would also want you to cooperate and you said that wouldn't happen." The trainer paused and watched Mac's face contort in question. "So I'll ask you again, why are you here?"


Mac thought about what she could give him in response, but her thoughts about Fezco and what was going on between the two of them and the suppressed anger at having to be in this class made the brunette feel even more exhausted. It's not the first time that day that Mac wished she hadn't promised Fez not to fuck with drugs anymore, because at that moment she could really use a line of cocaine.


No matter how hard Mac thought about it, she couldn't think of an excuse and she certainly wouldn't tell him the truth that Hayes was threatening to bring her mother on board, because that would mean that Ophelia Donahue would be discussed and the girl could do without that, so she left the question unanswered and did what she did best.


"Why is this just about me? This is a group session isn't it?" The brunette's voice contained a hint of venom.


Mr. Mayfield noted that Mackenna refused to answer him not because she felt she was being treated unfairly, but because she had difficulty seeing that anger management training could actually benefit her. The pen in his left hand tapped against the clipboard in a steady rhythm as he considered his next words.


"You said you weren't the problem and that you had your emotions under control, but control your emotion's doesn't mean avoid your emotion's."


Mac's brown eyes narrowed dangerously into two slits, like a cougar focusing on its prey. "I don’t avoid shit."


Such an answer was to be expected, which is why the dark-haired man nodded his head absently. "Well, that's where our opinions differ, because I have a feeling that's exactly what you're doing. Except for anger and annoyance, you don't leave much room for emotions." Mr. Mayfield uncrossed his leg and rested his elbows on his knees as he leaned forward a little further. "To put it in your words: Feel your shit, understand your shit, but dont lose your shit - that is emotional control." 


No matter how hard the brunette tried to defend herself against the words of the wannabe psychologist, she couldn't avoid letting the words sink in and thinking about them.


The sound of rustling paper filled the room as Mr. Mayfield leafed through his papers, his lips pursed. "Mac, are you okay with us discussing potentially unpleasant topics here, or would you prefer if we did this one-on-one?"


The teenage-girl raised her head, which she had previously lowered to stare absentmindedly at the grayish floor. Mac wasn't stupid and could guess what her so-called coach was referring to. The fact that he didn't say exactly what he meant made her roll her eyes.


"If you talk about the sex tape, I don't give a fuck." The brunette shrugged her shoulders, which looked even more petite in Fezco's oversized shirt. Although she was beyond annoyed by this conversation, she let her voice sound sweet, but the salty sound was still audible. 


Mr. Mayfield raised one of his bushy eyebrows. “You don’t care that such a video of you exists?” The man, in his mid-thirties, could not understand the reason for Mackenna's indifference to the video with clearly pornographic content. He searched for the lie in her statement, but he didn't see anything in her eyes, which were confidently trained on him - not the slightest sign of emotion, so he tried to lure her out of her hiding spot again. "So it doesn't bother you at all that this video of you was sent to the whole school?"


"Why should it? After all, half the school has already seen her naked before this video even existed" One of the three boys present replied with a dirty grin, making the other two laugh before joining in with a high-five. 


Mr. Mayfield couldn't allow these hostile words and was about to criticize the teenage boy's behavior, but he didn't get around to it because Mac, who had now turned her attention to the boy, was faster. Now that she took a closer look at the boy, she recognized him as one of Nate's teammates. She didn't know his name, but she recognized the many line tattoos on his arms and had a good idea why he was in the anger management class. 


"Aww, do I hear envy 'cause you're part of the half that didn't have the honor?" With a feigned look of pity, the brunette tilted her head and spoke to the boy in an equally pitiful tone before her expression hardened and her tone became spiteful. "Maybe you'll have better luck if you grow some balls, like how about you say what you have to say to my face instead of talking about me in the third person like I'm not in the same room, fucking pussy." 


The 16-year-old thought she had hit the mark with her statement, because his behavior must be the reason why he wasn't actually one of the few boys she slept with, because it definitely couldn't be because of his looks, he was in fact quite hot. Looking good just didn't help him in this case, because as much as Mackenna loved sex, she had her principles and one of them was: don't sleep with obvious douchebags.


Nate was a huge exception, because on the one hand they were a couple at the time they were fucking and on the other hand Mac didn't know at the time what a son of a bitch her now ex-boyfriend was.


The squeak as the chair was pushed across the school floor could be heard as the tattooed boy quickly got up from his chair to take a few steps towards the brunette. 


"What did you just say?"


With an evil grin, Mac also stood up and looked up at the dark-haired boy with her brown doe eyes that you would think belonged to an innocent girl. It amused the Donahue girl that these few words were enough to scratch her counterpart's ego and get such a reaction. 


"What do you want to hear again? That you should grow some balls so you can satisfy the ladies or that you're a fucking pussy?" 


The boy, who she still had no idea what his name was - nor did she care - took another dangerous step toward the smaller girl, but Mac stood her ground and was ready to throw fists if necessary.


Mr. Mayfield - who had heard and seen enough - saw this too, which is why he rose from his chair and stood between the two students, his hands resting on their shoulders in a placating gesture.  


"Alright, how about we talk about anger management methods next?" 


— 


Satisfied, Mac placed the plate of vegetarian casserole on the coffee table before leaning back and rubbing her stomach contentedly, her brown eyes trained on Fezco. 


"Thank you very much, Mr. O’Neill."


Fezco tried to cover up the blush that rose on his face with a scoff. As if he wasn't turned on by the brunette beauty calling him by his last name, he pushed himself up from his semi-reclining position to sit on the edge of the couch and reached for his phone.


"It's Whatever. I just heated up frozen food in the microwave, nothing special." To punctuate his words, he shrugged inconsequentially as he randomly tapped away on his smartphone to distract himself from his inappropriate thoughts. 


Unfortunately for him, Mac didn't make it easy for him.


The teenage girl also sat up so she was kneeling behind Fez and wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing a kiss to his pulse. "Don't devalue it like that, baby.  I still really appreciate the gesture." 


She really did, because despite the fact that she always had something to eat in her home thanks to her mother's hired cooks, she didn't take it for granted that Fezco would prepare something for her to dinner. Especially because she hadn't expected this when she texted him, still annoyed, after the Anger Management class and asked if she could come over. 


It wasn't very late, just early evening, the sun was in the west and about to set, but Mac still felt like she hadn't slept in days. The brunette knew that it wasn't just the class, because even though it was very exhausting dealing with his problems, that wasn't the only reason for her tiredness. So far, her way of dealing with unwanted emotions has been sniffing cocaine


But that wasn't possible anymore, she had made the promise to Fezco, and besides, she was out of drugs. She had nothing. No nose candy. No molly. Not even weed.


She was in withdrawal.


Her mood wasn't the best when she left school, but that changed when she saw Fezco leaning against his car in the parking lot. She wouldn't have minded walking to his street, but she wouldn't say no to a ride, plus she was happy to see him. The fact that there was already warm food on the table when they entered the apartment was just the icing on the cake for Mac. 


For Fez, however, it was natural to take care of Mac; he was happy to do so. With a push of a button he speared the screen

of his phone before placing it back on the table and turning his head to look at Mackenna. She looked tired, her otherwise shiny eyes seemed cloudy and when he noticed how normal her pupils were, he knew why. 


She had kept her promise and was actually sober. He wouldn't have known what he would have done if she had gotten into the car with him while high and is glad he doesn't have to worry about it. 


He leaned towards her with a smile. "I'm damn proud of you, ma." Without another word, he placed his lips on hers and engaged her in a slow kiss.


Ashtray, who was sitting in his armchair ,eating chicken nuggets, made a disgusted face, but inside him it looked completely different. Seeing his brother and the brunette so intimately confirmed that he had behaved correctly that morning, it was right to stand up for Mac and put the guy who called himself his friend in his place.


There was no question in his mind whether he would do it again, because as he said; Mac was Fezco's girl.

Chapter Text


There are bad days and then there are days when you run out of drugs to make said bad days better. 

I thought my fucking day couldn't get any worse after I saw Fezco and my best friend - who I've been crushing on ever since our boobs grew, making out in front of school - a clear sign to me that there was more going on between them than just an insignificant one night stand. This was a fact that stung my heart, 'cause it was one thing to know and see that Mac would fuck anything with a dick between two legs, but it was something completely different to watch her seemingly fall in love. 

This shit hurts like a bitch. 

At that moment I doubted that I was actually over Mackenna, 'cause even though the days I spent with Jules were really good, like, really really good, I suddenly doubted my feelings for the blonde. 

Did I like her? Abso-fucking-lutely. Was she a distraction for Mac? I don't fucking know.

Contrary to my expectations, my shitty day got even shittier when I found out that my old crush had given my new crush a black eye, but no one wanted to tell me the reason for it. After the short conversation - and from Mac's point of view, very hostile - conversation between the two, Jules remained silent on the subject and my best friend didn't respond to any messages from me either. Not fucking fair. 

I knew that Mac had her amger management class for the first time that day; she had told me about it when we had spoken briefly on the phone the evening before. Little did I know that she was there at Fezco's, 'cause she didn't mention anything about it nor did we talk about where the damn class would take place. 

Instead of wandering around school like a madman, I estimated how long her classes might last and drove to her house around late afternoon. I didn't care that Ophelia Donahue wouldn't be happy when I showed up at her perfect little Villa, cause I needed to know what had happened between Mac and Jules.

The disgusting feeling of fear that I would have to let go of Mac and that Jules wouldn't be interested in me either crept up inside me. 

Unfortunately for me on this fucking beautiful day, only good old man Ferg opened the front door to tell me that I had missed Mac by half an hour. He told me that she was just there to pick up some clothes 'cause she was staying at Maddy's for a few days so she could work on a school project.

School Project my ass. There was only one reason why Mac stayed somewhere else for more days and that was to avoid her mother and to be completely honest, I could understand that. Ophelia had such a big stick up her ass that I was amazed how she could even walk in her overpriced high heels.

Ophelia didn't know that Mac and I were still best friends. That philistine had forbidden her daughter any contact with me. The reason for this should be clear: she didn't want her hypocritical perfect daughter to be dragged down by someone like me - the lower class.

I was glad that Fergus ignored his boss's instructions and still gave me information about Mackenna every time she wasn't home. That was the only way I knew that I wouldn't be able to talk to Mac until the next day at school 'cause I didn't want to go to Maddy.

If I had known that Mac wasn't with Maddy at all, but was in the shower with her new boy toy Fezco at that moment to distract her from the thoughts of drug withdrawal, I would have prepared myself to talk to her, 'cause after realizing that I had nothing left that would get me high, I angrily crossed over to the side of the street - my path led me to Fezco's crib. 

"Here Ma, grandma told me that dried fruits are supposed to help with headaches, I'm not sure if it helps in cases like that, but I think we can try shit out." With a slightly shy smile, Fez handed over Plate with raisins, dates and fresh apricots on it to Mackenna.

The brunette looked from the plate of fruit into the face of her counterpart, a pout on her lips. She was touched by the fact that Fezco went back to the store just for her to buy her home remedy for a headache; She hadn't expected that when, after showering together, he said he had to go out again to get something. The fact that he chopped up the apricots and beautifully arranged the dates and raisins was just icing on the cake for Mac.

"Oh baby, that wouldn't have been necessary, you know that, right?" With one hand, the teenager took the plate from Fezco's hand and placed it on the coffee table before using her other hand to grab his wrist to pull him onto the sofa. "Thank you so much." With those words she put her arms around his neck and pressed her lips to his. 

What was initially a harmless kiss quickly turned into a passionate one. Mackenna opened her mouth, allowing Fez to insert his tongue between her lips. The older boy was glad that his gesture was well received by Mac. He didn't know if she would have reacted the same way if she knew he had asked Ashtray to keep an eye on her while he was gone, which was why he kept it a secret. It wasn't a big deal in itself, because the brunette was busy helping Ash with his history homework anyway. You might not notice it because of her outfits and long nails, but Mac was actually very inquisitive when it came to topics like ' The seven World Wonders' or 'The Red Scare', so it was natural for her to help Ashtray. 

Still, Fezco thought it would be a better idea to ask his younger brother if he could look after his girl while he ran errands. He didn't want to believe that she would immediately look for drugs as soon as he left his crib, but as a drug dealer he knows the behavior of addicts. The urge for the next trip is always strong, but the urge is even worse when you are in withdrawal. He couldn't risk Mackenna having a relapse. Even if she had only been sober for about 24 hours, he was proud of how brave she was despite her severe headache. Fez didn't know how strong her cocaine addiction was, but the fact that her body reacted so strongly to the withdrawal of the white powder after just one day spoke for itself. He was all the happier that she agreed to his attempts to distract her from the pressing thoughts and the nausea instead of begging him for drugs again. Fezco would never give Mac drugs of any kind again unless it was his weed, but that didn't mean he didn't have a damn hard time saying no to her, especially when she looked at him with her big doe eyes. He would fulfill every possible wish of hers, but not this one.

Mac put every bit of gratitude into their kiss. She only briefly separated herself from Fezco's lips to take his lower lip between her teeth. His grip on the brunette's hips tightened as he felt the nibbling at his sensitivi flesh. Kissing Mac always gave the older boy pleasant goosebumps that spread across his body. 

He enjoyed how her right hand wrapped around his neck to pull him even closer to her until a loud throat cleared him from his ecstasy of the kiss. Fezco opened his eyes and pulled away from the girl in his arms to look at Ashtray, who had risen from his armchair.

"Imma head to my room, play a round of COD and shit." Ashtray would never have openly admitted it, but he would have liked to spend more time with Mac and his brother this night, but because he didn't want to disturb them, he gave them their space. 

Despite his guilty conscience, Fez nodded his head. He noticed that Ash was only leaving to give him and the brunette some one-on-one time and not because he actually wanted to play video games in his room. He was sorry for him, but his focus at that moment was solely on Mackenna, she needed his attention more than he did. Fezco was sure his little brother would understand that. 

"No no no no, stay. We can watch the movie you told me about earlier." With her velvety brown eyes, Mac looked from Ash to Fezco to make sure he was fine with a movie night. He smiled in response before leaning back, his left arm was resting on the back of the sofa. 

Also with a smile, the brunette looked back at the younger boy and wiggled her eyebrow, causing Ashtray to roll his eyes playfully before he fell back into the armchair. He watched as Mac made himself comfortable on the couch, sitting cross-legged, the plate of fruit on her lap while she grabbed a piece of apricot and put it in her mouth. When he felt the corners of his mouth about to turn into a smile, he faked clearing his throat and turned his gaze to the television on which Fezco was currently opening Prime Video.

Ashtray was grateful. Grateful that Mackenna was who she was. 

It wasn't like Fezco brought girls home often, in fact it was quite rare, so rare that it had only happened once before Mackenna. Ahstray didn't remember her name, but what he certainly remembered clearly was that she was doing everything she could to get rid of him so she could spend time with Fezco. Ash was less independent at this point than he was now, which is why he looked up to his big brother and enjoyed spending time with him, much to the approval of his girlfriend at the time. Needless to say, he was glad when the two teenagers' getting-to-know-you phase ended very quickly because Fezco noticed what a total bitch the girl was.  

“Hold on, babe…” Fez turned his head away from the TV to look at Mac as she grabbed his upper arm to lean forward and place the plate of sweet fruits on the table. "I have to pee." With these words, the brunette got up somewhat inelegantly from the sofa and made her way to the bathroom. 

"Wash your attitude well." Ash said casually before the girl could leave the living room. Mackenna didn't stop and didn't respond with words to his attempt to tease her, but she didn't miss the chance to show him her most beautiful finger.

The three of them were about halfway through 'The Slumber Party Massacre' when the girl with the golden brown curls narrowed her eyes at the screen. 

"Ashtray?"

Lounging comfortably in his armchair, the 14-year-old teen only let out a 'hmm'. He is far too focused on the movie that is playing in front of them. 

"Could it be that you really wanted to watch this movie for a specific reason?" Mac asked, watching Ash with her gaze sharpened so as not to miss his reaction. Fez, who was holding the girl in his arms, watched the whole thing with amusement, he could imagine what Mackenna was getting at. 

"Watcha talkin' about, i suggested this movie 'cause it's sick." Ash muttered without taking his eyes off the television. He knew that if he looked into the bubbly girl's face, his casual mask would have fallen and he would have had to grin. 

The 5'3 girl turned her gaze away from the younger boy and directed it back to the screen, where the four barely clothed protagonists were currently visible. With a grin on her lips, she nodded her head ironically. 

"Yeah like, i really wonder why this movie is one of your favorites." 

All she got in response was a scoff. Of course the women were one reason why he liked watching this masterpiece - they were hot, even though they were many years older than him, but he also liked the plot. 

Girl goes bananas. He thought, although she was actually right in her assumption.  

The brunette left it at that and snuggled closer to Fezco, enjoying the warmth radiating from him. She had to say that the dried fruits actually helped a little with her headache, she could hardly feel the constant pounding and her stomach also thanked her for the food with a with a break from the nausea.

Mackenna looked at Ashtray again for a brief moment. Dressed in a white polo shirt and dark sweatpants, he was half-lying on the old chair, engrossed in the action in front of him, his gold chain flashing with every bright light from the television. Her brown eyes slid to Fezco's lap, which was covered by a pair of gray sweatpants he had put on after their shower together. Gray joggers - a huge turn on for the girl, but that wasn't the reason why she looked at that spot, rather it was her hand playing with his fingers there. A smile crept onto the teen's face as Fez began stroking the skin on her hand. He was so sensitive and gentle towards her, something she wasn't used to. Not in this way anyway.

When Mac thought about it, she hadn't felt as comfortable as she did right now in a very long time. Of course she was grateful to the two boys. Grateful that they enjoyed spending time with her, that they accepted her as she was and even took her in so that she wasn't alone with the withdrawal, but there was more. There was something in the young girl's chest that she couldn't quite define.

It was warm and felt good, a bit like she had found a place she could call home.

A thought that frightened her and yet she didn't want it any other way. It all feels far too right. 

Not wanting to think about it any further, Mac positioned her head on Fezco's chest so that the longest of his three gold chains would no longer press against her temple. He noticed this and chuckled slightly before he started playing with a light brown curl with the hand he was holding the girl with. He was enjoying this evening as much as she was, at least until the doorbell rang and a knock - almost hammering - was heard at the door. 

Ash immediately snapped his head to Fezco, who looked just as puzzled as he was. They weren't expecting a visitor, so they wondered who it could be. Unlike Mac, who also heard the knock, but didn't have the energy to think about who it might be. She was too tired and trusted the two boys to take care of it.

Ash is about to reach for the remote to pause the movie when he sees his older brother shaking his head.

"Nah, i got it." 

– "You sure?"

The Ginger nodded his head this time as he rose from the sofa after Mac took her head from him and sat cross-legged on the brown-ish couch. Both teenagers watched Fezco leave the living room, but quickly focused back on the television when a very high-pitched scream was heard from it. 

Shortly after their second meeting, Ash and Mac realized that they both liked old horror movies and so it was no surprise for the Donahue-girl that she enjoyed the film in which a female high school student's slumber party turned into a bloodbath. Packed with plot twists and surprising deviations from the standard formula, the movie is extremely fun even if it contained a lot of clichés. 

When the teenager-girl heard loud voices that were not those of the women on the television, she frowned. Ash also seemed to notice the screams coming from the hallway, so this time he actually reached for the remote and paused the movie before concentrating on the conversation at the door. 

"Fez, i've had a really fucked-up day all right, that's been a really really fucked-up day okay? So i need you to open the door. Can you open the door please?" 

It didn't take long for Mackenna to figure out that the slightly aggressive voice was Rue's - after all, she knows her best friend like the back of her hand. Out of reflex, she looked at the younger boy, who was already looking at her. They both listened to the conversation for a brief moment before the 16-year-old got up and tiptoed barefoot towards the hallway. 

"Don't Fez... Don't close" – 

Fezco was about to close the second door when he noticed that Rue didn't finish her sentence and her attention fell on something behind him. Holding the white door in his large hand, he looked over his shoulder to find Mackenna with a worried expression on her face. He slumped his shoulders and looked at the floor, taking a deep breath. That's exactly what he didn't want when he opened the door for Rue. The 19-year-old could see how exhausted the girl was and didn't want her to have to deal with all this shit, plus he was worried that Rue might jeopardize Mackenna's withdrawal.

He had tried to brush off the older Bennett-sister, telling her that he wouldn't sell her drugs anymore and that it was best for her not to come over anymore. But Rue didn't want to hear any of this, she longed too much for the next drug rush, a behavior that he knew Mackenna would probably also exhibit as soon as her body no longer knew how to deal with stress and conflict in any other way. 

But Fezco was prepared. He had decided not to give either of them drugs anymore, so he did exactly that, all he had to do was be consistent. 

"Is everything okay?" Mac stopped with a little distance from the door and looked between Fez and her best friend, feeling the negative tension despite her tiredness. 

Before Fez could send her back to the living room, Rue spoke up. "Mac hey...um...please tell him to open the door, okay? Tell him... tell him i can come in." Her dull eyes met Mac, who was standing in front of her in her pink victoria secrets pajamas. She was her only and greatest hope, if Fezco would listen to anyone, it would be the girl who already had him wrapped around her pretty little finger. At least that's what Rue believed, but in reality Fezco wouldn't open the door under any circumstances.

Mac, not quite understanding why Fezco wouldn't let Rue in, frowned. "Can someone please explain to me what's going on here?" 

– "No, just go back to the living room!" Mac jumped slightly as Fez's stern voice told her what to do. The Ginger was sorry when he noticed how frightened the girl was by his commanding tone, but he was stressed. He only had one goal at that moment and that was to get Rue away from Mackenna. "Rue was just about to leave anyway." He added, more gently this time.

"No no no no no no wait... Please wait a sec." Not only could you see how nervous Rue was, you could also hear it in her voice. "Do you remember when we broke into our school's football field after dark to get high?" Her pleading eyes met Mackenna's. "We laid down and watched the fucking stars... and and and suddenly everything spins and we swore that's it, that we were going to call off the planet, but we didn't and then we laughed our asses off... " –

Mackenna didn't have to think for long, of course she remembered that night, it was one of her favorite memories with Rue, but what she didn't understand was why she came up with this story out of nowhere. She looked at her best friend confused, but nodded her head slightly, which made Rue continue talking excitedly.

"Okay yeah, remember what it felt like, alright? The drug, the cocaine made you feel good, right? We were happy and... "–

That's where Fezco cut into Rue's monologue. From the beginning he didn't like the direction her words were going.

"Nah, for real Rue, don't talk to her." 

The Donahue girl could do nothing but stand there speechless as she tried to process the scene before her. 

"What? First you don't want to sell me any more drugs and then you also want to take my best friend away from me?" A humorless laugh escaped Rue. "Fuck you Fez and open the fucking door!" 

– "Just go home." With that, Fezco finally closed the door and leaned his back against it while Rue banged on the gate from outside. Her voice echoed in the background as he raised his head and looked at Mackenna. The girl looked torn and he could understand that. On one side was her best friend begging her to get him to open the door to give her drugs - something she also craved at the moment, and on the other side was him denying them drugs to help them. He could only imagine how difficult this must be for Mackenna, especially because Rue's pleading could still be heard from outside. 

"I'm begging you, just open the door." 

It almost broke Mac's heart to hear her best friend for so many years - with whom she had endured so much - pleading like that. And not only that, the memory of past times, times when they were high like a freaking kite, triggered Mackenna's addiction enormously. Up to this point she had been well distracted thanks to Ashtray's suggestion of a movie night, but now she really wanted a trip to Wonderland. The teenager knew she wouldn't be able to get cocaine - let alone other hard drugs - from the man in front of her, and unlike the voice in her head demanding the white powder, Mac wanted to continue the withdrawal. She wanted to be stronger than the addiction. That was why she took the few steps towards Fezco and leaned her head against his chest, that and the fact that he looked as torn up as she felt. Her arms wrapped around his torso as Mac tried to concentrate on his heartbeat, which was difficult since Rue  was making a ruckus in the background.

"FEZ!" Her tone not only grew louder, but also angrier as another pounding was heard as Rue hit the gate with her fist. "You full of shit, man! You know you make your living of selling drugs to Teenagers and now all of a sudden you want to have a fucking Moral high ground? Are you doing this because of Mac? Because your dysfunctional brain thinks there could be something real going on between you?" 

If there was one thing the Donahue-girl couldn't handle, it was when people insulted people she cared about in some way or antoher. This was one thing that made Mackenna see red, so after Rue finished her sentence, Mac instinctively reached for the door handle to open it and put Rue in her place. She didn't think at that moment that Rue was only acting like that because she wanted drugs and couldn't get them. She didn't care that she could probably understand it if she thought about it, and she also didn't care at that moment that Rue was her best friend for many years. In Mac's blind rage, all she heard was her literally calling Fezco a brainless 

Idiot. 

It was lucky for Rue that Fezco reacted quickly and put his hand on Mac's to stop her from opening the door. With his other hand he gripped her hip a little tighter, which made her look at him. A shake of the head told her that he didn't want her to go outside, so the girl tried to relax in his arms. 

He didn't like what Rue was saying, especially that she involved Mackenna in all this. It was clear to him why Rue reacted the way she did, after all, as a drug dealer he had experience with such behavior. It was more common than you would think for customers to have no money to pay for their stuff and still insist on getting drugs. They reacted in a similar way to Rue, less personal, but similar.

"Well, I'll tell you something, Mac doesn't give a shit about you! All she cares about is cocaine and catching the next dick! You wanna know why?" A humorless snort escaped Rue. "Because she's a fucking whore!" 

This was the moment when Fezco himself would have liked to open the door to get Rue's addicted ass away from his door so that neither he nor Mackenna would have to hear her screams anymore, but he controlled his anger and instead placed his hand on the back of Mac's head, to comfort her because he felt how the girl tensed up in his arms after those dirty words left Rue's mouth. He was sorry for her, it wasn't Mac's fault that he decided to stop selling drugs to Rue.

Besides, her words hurt him as well. The older Bennett-Sister was a friend of his and hearing her say things like that did something to him. Just because he understood where Rue was coming from doesn't mean that her words left him cold, because the exact opposite was the case, but Fez was more worried about Mac. She was his priority at that moment. 

Mac, on the other hand, didn't know what to think, it was so much that she felt. So many emotions literally flooded her body; anger, disappointment, confusion, bewilderment...

"Rue man, that's enough." 

– "No no no no! You have to understand that Mac ain't worth shit, maybe you just fucked her minutes ago but before that she kissed Maddy like there was no fucking tomorrow! Whore's can't love so fuck her and open the fucking door!" 

The Donahue-girl closed er heavy eyes. She was already exhausted from the cocaine withdrawal that was weakening her body. Rue's freak out did the rest. She thanked the man in front of her so much for holding her, for being there for her, because otherwise she would probably lash out at Rue and that was something she probably wouldn't forgive herself for. 

Rue didn't give a fuck about how Mac and Fezco felt, all she wanted was something to numb her negative feelings and since that was denied to her, she had no choice but to let her anger and aggression run wild. In her eyes she did nothing wrong, it was Fezco and Mackenna who did her wrong. Fez because he didn't want to sell her drugs anymore and Mackenna because she was the reason for it. Before he met Mac, he didn't care about any of this ridiculous morals. 

When Rue received no further response, not even a reaction from the two people behind the door, she hit the bars with both hands, but this time it was louder and more aggressive, just like her voice.

"OPEN THE DOOR!" 

Again no reaction.

"Fuck you." She spat with poison in her voice. "Fuck you, Fez okay? If you would care about me or Mac, you wouldn't do this to us. Mac looks like a motherfucking train wreck, is that what you want? Don’t you want her to be happy?" 

That's exactly why I do it. Fez thought as he took a deep breath and held Mac close, holding on to her. He knew what Rue was trying to do, but manipulating him like that didn't work. 

"No, you know what? If you gave a shit about me you wouldn't solve me the fucking drugs in the first place." The tremor in Rue's voice became stronger and despite the circumstances, it hurt both Fez and Mac to hear Rue so desperate. "But you did! You fucking did! So open the goddamn door!" 

This time Mac jumped as there was another hard slam from Rue banging on the door, causing the older boy to lower his head to press his lips to Mackenna's curls. 

"Open the door!" 

–"I can't do this, Rue. I'm sorry." 

"Open the door! Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!" 

Mac's acrylic nails dug into the fabric of Fezco's shirt as she squeezed her eyes shut. The teenage girl wasn't easy to make cry - she just wasn't like that - but hearing her best friend so broken brought tears to her eyes. All she heard in her head as she heard Rue's pleading to open the door for her was; Make her stop! Make her stop! Make her stop! MAKE HER STOP! 

"You did this to me!" Rue whimpered weakly, as if she were at her wits' end. "You did this to Mac!" She added almost in a whisper. 

Ten words that stabbed Fezco right in his heart because he knew she was right. Without him, neither Rue nor Mac would be in this situation. 

Maybe he should stay away from both of them.

Maybe both of them would be better off without him. 

Maybe he should not only send Rue away, but also the girl in his arms.

Maybe it would be better if they didn't see each other anymore.

As he thought about what would probably be best for Rue and Mac, he felt a hand cup his cheek. His clouded eyes freckled with obsidian met Mac's as she pulled away from his embrace to look up at him.

"Don't listen to her. None of this is your fault."   

Fezco didn't know what it was - maybe Mackenna's loving gaze she gave him or her words that actually managed to block out Rue's accusations that he had ruined her life, but he believed her.

It means so much to him that Mackenna didn't blame him for her addiction because it made it clear that Rue was only saying these things to hurt him. 

Yes, he was the one who sold her drugs and he now regrets it, but it was Rue who decided to take them in the first place. As evasive as it may sound, he was just doing his job to keep Ashtray, his grandma and himself afloat.

But that was over now, at least when it came to Rue and Mac. The Ginger didn't need their money anymore plus he refused watching a friend to overdose let alone losing one of them to drugs. 

Grateful to have met the brunette before him, he brushed a curl of Mac's hair away from her face before leaning down and capturing her lips

Not selling them stuff anymore was the right thing to do, and if it meant that Rue would hate him, then he'd accept it.

Chapter Text

Anger in itself is a really disgusting feeling, but the anger you feel while you are unable to satisfy your addiction is different. This kind of anger is like on another level.

At first you don't care about anything, you don't care what you say and which feelings you potentially hurt. It's like selfishness takes over your body.

Not the good egoism that makes you think about yourself instead of always making sure to do what would be good for others.

Nah, not that kind of egoism but uh... like the in - this - story - I - am - the - poet - You're - the - poetry - kind.

But then you realize what you've done.

That's the worst shit ever.

Realizing that I had treated the two people who prolly mean the most to me like trash made me feel like a very ugly monster.

I know it's fucked up and I also know that I went way over the top that evening, but it happened, so there was nothing I could do about it.

I mean, yeah... I could have apologized, but I had already caused the damage with my words that night anyway.

Bright moonlight shone through the small gaps in the blinds and enveloped the relatively small room in a calming atmosphere. Fezco could only imagine that the rest of the sky was sparkling with stars and even briefly considered putting on sweatpants over his red checkered lower east boxers to sit outside on the steps and smoke a joint.

He reached next to him, grabbed his phone from the bedside table and lit up the screen with a push of a button.

1:52 AM.

With a sigh, the phone fell onto the blanket as Fez turned to the sleeping person next to him. He, Mac and Ashtray finished watching the movie and then got ready for bed. Around 11 p.m. the two of them were under the covers and it didn't take long for the girl to fall asleep. Fez could understand that after what she just went through. The withdrawal took all of her Energy and to make matters worse, Rue had to pull such a bum trip.

The Ginger shook his head imperceptibly. What he could absolutely understand was that Rue was saying all this shit to him, after all, he was her pusher from the beginning and as far as he knew - and hoped - there was no dealer other than him in East Highland, but he couldn't understand that she was throwing statements like 'she's a whore' at Mac - her best friend since childhood.

He simply found it unfair. Mac wasn't to blame for any decisions he made.

Fez's blue eyes slid over Mackenna's figure and how she lay on her stomach under the colorful blanket. A grin crept onto his lips as he remembered how the teenage girl told him on their first night together that she always tried to fall asleep on her stomach because she had once read that one had more erotic dreams in that position. His casual answer was that he believed he could better help her have wet dreams before giving her one orgasm after another with his fingers. He remembered her moaning his name and then screaming the five letters as she reached her climax. That moment, he felt like he was the only person who could make Mac feel good.

He probably had to admit to himself that that was most likely not the case after hearing Rue's words, or why else was she smooching around with Maddy after he give her head on the night before.

With a frown, Fez thought about how it would feel for him to make out with another girl, only to quickly shake his head to clear the thought. It was not only unimaginable for him, but also uncomfortable, because for Fezco this was more than just sexual tension between them. It was way beyond making out just for fun and satisfaction.

"Fuck." A long exhale followed his whispered curse.

It wasn't the first time that Fez had this thought, but it was the first time he admitted it to himself.

He developed feelings for Mackenna.

Lost in thoughts the ginger grabs his smart phone from his stomach to place it back on the surface of the wooden bedside table before turning over to the opposite side of the girl next to him, hoping that sleep would finally overcome him.

But before he could close his eyes, a mumble and whimper can be heard next to him. With worry in his blue eyes, he turned back and tried to calm Mac down, who was now lying on her side and had a pained expression on her face. Fezco gently placed his hand on her forehead, which was slightly covered in sweat, to check whether she had caught another fever attack, while he kept whispering that everything was alright. Mac felt warm, but not unnaturally hot, so he decided she was probably having another nightmare.

"Fez?" Her voice sounded scratchy and weak, even to her own ears.

"Yeah Baby, I'm here. It's alright."

Mac felt a warm hand on her cheek and reached for it with one of her hands and a weak smile on her lips before opening her eyes. It took a few deep breaths for Mackenna's pulse to calm down - an exercise Fez taught her - only then did she manage to sit up.

"Hey careful." Fez also sat up to help the teenage girl by placing a hand on her back.

"I'm okay Fezco!" A sigh escaped the brunette as she pulled her knees up to her body, leaned on them with her arms and rubbed her face with both hands. She didn't want her words to sound as harsh as they came out, but her dream still nagged at her. "I'm sorry, baby. It's just..." With narrowed eyebrows, she shook her head and pushed slightly damp curls out of her face with one hand. "These nightmares are so stressful. Like, all I want is to sleep to escape the headaches and nausea, but even in sleep I can't find peace."

"I know, Ma." He stroked the girl's back in slow movements. "And I'd like to tell ya that this will all be over soon, but shit, I can't. All I can tell ya is that you're doing well and you'll get through this."

A wide smile formed on Mackenna's dry lips as she turned her head to the side to look at Fez. "Thank you." She leaned towards him and saw him doing the same, but before their lips could meet in a kiss, Mac stopped her movement. "Wait, can you give me something to drink, my lips are drier than a camel's asshole."

With a snort of laughter, Fezco grabbed the small water bottle he had left there that night before they went to bed and handed it to the girl.

"You know that doesn't bother me, right?" As he asked this, he played with one of her curls and watched her take large sips of the water.

With a satisfied 'aah' Mackenna put the bottle down from her lips and handed it to Fezco, who put it away.

She used her tongue to check once again that her lips were less chapped before she gave Fezco a peck on his soft mouth. "I know, but you know I don't wanna our kiss to feel like we have sandpaper between us. That's kinda nasty." With these words she wrapped her arms around Fezco's neck and kissed him more passionately this time.

Mac tried to put any gratitude into the gesture, because it wasn't the first time Fez had calmed her down after a nightmare. Even when she fell asleep on the couch one afternoon because her body was just so drained of energy, she woke up to a terrible dream and he was there to distract her from it. These dreams bothered her and made her feel even weaker, but having Fezco there helped her enormously.

Fezco gladly returned the kiss. One of his hands went under her thick curls to her neck to pull her closer to him, while the other rested on her thigh. He wanted to give himself completely to this kiss, like he always did, but a thought suddenly made him pull back.

The teenage girl didn't understand why the older boy suddenly broke off this kiss that she believed and hoped would lead to more, but of course she accepted it, especially after seeing Fezco avoid her gaze.

"Is everything alright?" Mac's eyebrows furrowed again as she watched Fez grab his phone and then sit against the head of the bed with a clearing of his throat that was probably meant to sound inconsequential. What Fez probably didn't notice was that his behavior seemed all but  inconspicuous and relaxed, I fact it was quite the opposite and if the situation hadn't been so strange, Mac probably wouldn't have been able to suppress a laugh about it.

"Yeah, I'm good." He sniffed and pretended there was something important on his display, but in reality he was just staring at the loading screen of 'Subway Surfers' - a game he had once downloaded to pass the time in his store.

Mackenna waited a moment, far too confused about the entire situation. Slightly annoyed about it, she tugged at the soft material of her pink Victoria Secrets pajamas as she sat next to Fezco and simply waited for him to explain his weird behavior.

But nothing.

Just that stupid typing on his even stupider smartphone.

As the 16-year-old was about to say something, his deep voice suddenly rang out.

"So you and Maddy, huh?" He didn't look up from the display once during his question, which sounded much more like a statement.

Mac's expression became more questioning, she didn't understand how Fez suddenly brought this topic up.

Until...

"Okay, hold on. Am I still dreaming or something? 'Cause this is wild. I'm sitting here with a bad conscience 'cause I thought I woke you up, but you prolly weren't even sleeping but were thinking about what could be between me and Maddy?" She let out an amused snort. "Nah like for real, are you jealous?"

'Say yes, and maybe she'll tell you that you have no reason to be jealous because you're the only one she has feelings for.' A voice whispered in his head.

'Tell her you're jealous and she'll jump out of bed faster than a politician changes his mind.' Another voice - a cynical one - chimed in on his mental conversation.

Fez knew he had no right to feel jealous. He and Mac weren't exclusive and yet he couldn't stop thinking about how easy it was for his girl to kiss someone else while he couldn't even imagine doing the same thing with anyone other than her.

"Watcha talkin' about, I'm not jels." Again he didn't look away from his display as he spoke to her.

He should know better.

"Can you just..." With a quick move, Mackenna grabbed the phone from his hands. "Stop being disrespectful and just look at me when I'm talking to you."

Sighing, Fezco positioned himself more comfortably against the headboard of his bed, before looking at the girl in the light of the moon and his bright cell phone screen.

"You're right, ma. I'm sorry." A wry grin spread across his face as the petite girl instead of listening to him glanced at the screen of his phone, only to look at him with an annoyed expression when she saw that he actually had the audacity to play 'Subway Surfers' while she tried to have a real conversation with him.

"You're unbelievable." Mac shook her head in amusement as she turned off the phone screen and placed the smartphone behind her on the blanket. "So like, you're not jealous but why do you care if there's something between Maddy and me?"

To emphasize her question, Mackenna tilted her head to the side. Fez couldn't help but find the sight adorable.

"I was just wondering cuz... you know... why would you do that? Like isn't she with Nate?"

The teenager knelt on the bed and placed her hands on her thighs. "No, they broke up. I mean, only a clairvoyant knows for how long this time, but... you know." When she noticed the stoic look Fezco was giving her, she playfully hit his upper arm with one hand, making both of them laugh. "Stop it, I literally know what you're thinking, but no Nate isn't even on my mind anymore."

"But Maddy is?" He asked, partly to tease her, but partly to actually get an answer.

"Noooo." She drew out the word while moving closer to the older boy, bust still left space between them. "I only kissed her 'cause she didn't believe me that we..." She pointed at herself and Fezco with her long acrylic nail. "...are just friends. You know... Maddy is crazy sometimes, so she sees things that aren't there." She theatrically rolled her brown doe eyes before continuing her explanation. "She said that friends don't kiss like we do, so I kissed her to prove her wrong, like how barmy, right? So yeah, I kissed her to show her that we're just friends, 'cause that's exactly what we are... just friends." Mac finished her nervous rambling and looked at Fezco expectantly.

When he didn't answer, just picked imaginary fluff off his blanket, Mac's heart began to race. She didn't know how she would react if Fezco denied her assumption. It would mean she would have to deal with what was actually going on between the two of them and that was something she wasn't ready for, not after everything she had to go through when it came to topics like romantic feelings and relationships.

To cover up her Gamophobia, Mackenna tried to use her weird humor to dim the tension in the room. "I mean, Friends with benefits, but still just Friends. Right?"

It bothered him how she kept emphasizing that they were just friends, as if anything else was absurd. But he didn't say this. Instead, he exhaled deeply and nodded his head slightly.

"Right."

Fezco's answer made Mac sigh in relief.  She was glad that he saw it the same way she did, anything else would only complicate things between them, and the brunette could really do without that drama. Mackenna studiously ignored the strange feeling that was spreading in her stomach, covering it up with a smile as she moved closer to Fez, who was still avoiding her gaze.

"So maybe we could work on our Benefits?" Mac asked in a seductive tone while at the same time her hand slipped under the colorful blanket at his crotch. She didn't know where this sudden lust came from, but on the other hand it seemed like all she had to do was look at the man in front of her and she was ready for whatever he had in store.

To signal him exactly that, she massaged him over his boxers and leaned over to nibble on his earlobe, the way she knew he liked it, but  before she got anywhere near that part of his body, Fezco grabbed her wrist and pulled it out from under the cover.

"We should sleep, you have school tomorrow and shit."

When he actually laid down so that he was facing away from her, Mac cocked her head and smacked her lips in disbelief. Aside from the fact that he didn't care that she had to go to school the next morning, when he went down on her the other night, the brunette could clearly feel that he was just as aroused as she was, which is why the whole thing sounded like an excuse.

Mac left it at that. Fezco didn't want to be intimate with her and that was absolutely fine with her. No means no, regardless of whether she believed his obvious poor excuse or not.

"Alright. Goodnight Fezco."

–"Yeah, night."

No kiss. No cuddling. No falling asleep in each other's arms.

Nothing.

Dejected, the teenage girl moved away from Fez to lie on her side of the bed, also facing away from him.

Even though Mac sensed that something was wrong with the older boy, she didn't bring it up because she was sure she knew what it was that was wrong with him - with them -  and found it easier to ignore it. Just like she always did with unpleasant situations.

After that night, I didn't see Mac for a few days - three to be exact. I could say that my first thought was that she was staying home from school 'cause our differences were bothering her so much, that she couldn't even get out of bed but it would be bullshit. I knew Mackenna Donahue better than that. This Motherfucker was not afraid of confrontation, so I knew it was 'cause of her withdrawal that she didn't show up in class.

I'm not saying I wasn't happy for her, bottom line I was, but I missed my best friend and I was scared shitless that sober Mac didn't want anything to do with me anymore - that she didn't need me anymore.

'Cause I will always need her.

"You sure you're okay?" Mac asked as she looked at Fez who was driving her to school.

Fez was unsure about letting her go back to school, after all the risk of relapse is much higher there than at home where he and Ashtray kept an eye on her, but on the one hand he knew that routine and normality would help her get along without drugs and on the other hand, he needed distance from Mackenna.

The night they talked about their situation still stuck with him. Of course he continued to take care of the girl - he would never abandon her at a time like this just because she didn't reciprocate his secret feelings - but it was visibly more difficult for him to be around her. What helped him in the last few days was that Mackenna slept a lot and there was no further tenderness, because Fezco knew that if it had been different he wouldn't have been able to resist the brunette beauty.

"I'm fine."

Mac knew he was lying, not only from his deadpan tone, but also because he didn't even look at her the entire drive, let alone start a conversation with her.

She looked out the window and wondered what could be the reason for Fezco's distance behavior. Mac could remember little of the past few days. She knew that she slept a lot because she felt even more drained every time she woke up, and she also knew that Fezco occasionally wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a damp cloth. He encouraged her to keep drinking and eating a little and last night they watched a movie before going to bed early. As they lay next to each other in his bed, the teenager already had the feeling that he was more distant towards her, but thought it was because he too was exhausted from taking care of her so much.

"If you're annoyed with me, all you have to do is say it." Her tone was snappy as she spat those words at Fezco. "I mean, it's not like that I would understand if you were, since it was your idea for me to move in with you for now, but..."–

"We're there." Fez interrupted the girl as he turned off his car's engine and looked out the windshield. He wanted to tell her how wrong she was in her assumption, but then she would have asked about the real reason for his behavior and knowing Mackenna well by now, he knew that she wouldn't let it go until he told her what would have either led to a fight between them or to him confessing his secret feelings to her.

Neither was an option for the 19-year-old, so he remained silent.

Mac scoffer as she looked at his side profile. "Seriously now? You can't even look at me, baby. What happened the past few days?"

Fez's heart jumped with joy when she called him 'baby', but his brain immediately reminded him that she didn't mean it the way his heart would have liked.

'She probably calls every dude she slept with that.' His immer voice mocked him.

"Nothing happened, bruh." He sighs. "Are you getting out of the car now, or..." His words trailed off while he was still looking at the other students who entered the school building.

The brunette couldn't help but shake her head in disbelief. She didn't know what was wrong with Fezco, but she certainly wasn't going to beg him to tell her what his problem was. She hasn't done that with anyone before and she won't start now, so she unbuckled herself, grabbed her black backpack from the footwell and opened the car door to get out.

"Mackenna?"

The girl half-heartedly placed her backpack on one shoulder before turning around and leaning into the car to look at Fez expectantly. What wasn't visible was the hope in her brown eyes as he called her back again.

'I knew he would come to his senses.' She thought to herself.

That thought was dashed when Mac realized Fez was holding out his hand to give her her faux fur hat. With a huff, she grabbed the black hat aggressively out of his fingers.

"Fuck you, Fezco!"

The Ginger sighed and shook his head, as he watched her storm off. He made sure that Mac would go inside before he turned the key in the ignition to start his engine and drive off school grounds. He knew he was being unfair to Mac, but when he thought of the panicked look she gave him when she wanted to hear him say they were nothing more than just friends, he knew it was better this way.

She had made it clear to her what they were, so he kept his feelings to himself and kept the girl who attracted him in more than just a sexual way at a distance, hoping that those feelings would go away.
