She invited him to a party about a week after they first started 'dating'. Zac didn't even bother asking if he could go to it - he knew the answer would be 'no'. So what else do you think he, a thirteen year old guy, did? Snuck out of the house of course. Just like Taylor sneaks in after going to those parties with Jade.
As it turned out, this was just like those parties with Jade. Alcohol all over the place. Zac had never drunk of course, and he was intelligent enough to realise that under the circumstances, getting drunk would not be a good idea.
Of course, Zac was so crazy to begin with it was easy to pretend he was.
However, there was one person who new he was sober, a girl named Jenny, who seemed to do the same thing.
"Aren't you upset?"
"Upset about what?" Zac asked.
Jenny gestured to where Monique was all over some other guy.
"Oh that? Nah."
"Why? She's so obviously cheating on you."
Zac just shrugged.
"She's cheating on me, I'm cheating on her. Big whoop."
"Oh, you rock stars are all alike." Jenny said, shaking her head in disgust.
"Are we?" He rhetorically asked, pointing to the people drinking.
Jenny smiled. She put her hands on his chest.
"Close enough."
Zac grinned and then leant forward and started kissing her. So began a huge big grope on the couch - that later led into a bed room. Hmm...

"Zac? Where have you been?" Taylor asked seeing him crawl in through the window.
"Out. With Monique."
Taylor frowned as he smelt the air.
"You haven't been drinking have you?"
"Like you haven't." Zac retorted.
"No, I haven't."
"And neither have I."
"That's good." came Isaac's voice. "Because I do not treasure the idea of being in the same studio with a hung over drummer."
Zac laughed.
"Hey, what's that on your face?" Isaac leaned forward to inspect. "Lipstick? Zac -"
"- nooooo. I haven't been doing the funky thing." He cut in. "Well... not all the way... but I'm not gonna do it my first time with someone I don't really care about."
"What did Monique think when you didn't go all the way?" Taylor asked, thinking of Jade.
"I wasn't with Monique. I was with a friend of hers named Jenny."
"Oh?"
"And she stopped before I did."
"Ok, I don't think I want to continue this discussion." Isaac said. "Talking about my little brothers' sex life is painting some really bad pictures in my mind. Good night."
Zac and Taylor laughed, and soon they were all fast asleep.
