ZARA

Chapter 8: Count down.

They all were back at the cliff fully clothed as they were just admiring this moment of the beautiful sunset.
"Let's get outta here.." Zara uttered still gazing at the sun
"To where?" Owen asked as the rest all look at her confused.
She stood up and grabbed Leo and Owen hands up pulling them with all her strength causing Zayn and Marty to stand up.

"Zayn... Marty a little help." She uttered with a shaking voice to the weight of Owens and Leo to make them feel more included
They helped her, and finally they both gave in, as Zayn, Zara and Marty pulled them up in a huff.
"Alright Let's go!" Zara exclaimed out of breath from pulling them up Leo and Owen sighed in exhaustion while they began their journey Zara patted their backs catching up with Zayn.

"Zara?" Zayn called for her
"Yea."
"Where are we going?"
"Zayn?"
"Yea?"
"You'll see." She said smirking as Zayn dipped his head back and breathed out of tiredness.
Finally exiting the cliff.

————-
It took them a while but they finally reached their destination. It was a convenient store.
"Zara unlike you.. I don't have money." Marty spoke defeatedly
"We won't be needing money..." she smirked "come on." She added as she entered the store.
The boys followed her. Owen shook his head and smirked going into the store and tucked his hands in his pockets.

As their in the store Owen, Marty, Leo and Zayn all have there hands down in there pockets. While Zara grabs the cart and takes it to isle 9 which has the candy. She begins to drop in sour straps, nerds, jumbo rockets, and airheads.
"What do you guys what." She whispered, Marty dropped down Doritos and a energy drink.
Owen placed lays chips and banana chips, Zayn also put bananas chips and pushed the cart to the cold drinks area and added a sprite. And Leo added a cold drink and pushed the cart over to the chips and got Cheeto's. Which made Zara remember she didn't get any drink so she ran back to the cold drink area to get a Coca-Cola.

"Alrighty are we done?" Zara asked slapping the cart handle.
"Yea, but how are we gonna get outta here.... past him." Leo said leaning over to whisper at her while also looking at the owner.
"Do you trust me?" She asked glazing her eyes at him in an effortlessly smooth way.
"I don't know." Leo answered smirking a bit
"Ouch." She responded pressing her hand on her chest with sarcasm.

As they were exchanging an easy conversations Owen was eyeing the store and its surroundings and saw cigarettes and put them in his pockets. He thought that no one had seen him but he was wrong.
"I thought you quit?" Marty questioned, Owen looked at him with an annoyed expression on his face for calling him out.
"There just cigs, it's not like I'm gonna die." Owen responded giving him an angry stare. And in the Corner of his eye he could see Zara staring at him and she almost seemed concerned.

And a tad bit disappointed. For some reason her opinion suddenly meant a lot to him in that moment.
"Let's get outta here." He said trying to change the topic and when he looked at Zara her face expression didn't change this time.

"Alright... I'll put them back okay?" He said smiling in her direction
and her eyes looked at him with relief and she smiled back. His heart felt better knowing that she wasn't mad or sad or whatever she was feeling in that moment.
"Then let's go." She said. Zara was focusing on moving the cart slowly and quietly and everyone else was so focused on getting out of the front door but Owen.
He looked back and got another pack of cigarettes. And this time no one noticed.

While Zara was leaning into the cart handle eyeing the owner of the store getting ready to push it out the door when he wasn't looking.
"Countdown?"Zara asked
Marty responded
"Yea. 1....2....3" and they busted out the door
