"...Then he invited me to his cousins wedding, and I said 'okay.'" Louis was explaining his problems while Zayn walked over to the group blowing out smoke from his mouth. "But then I said something stupid."
"Hey, man." Tristan greeted as Zayn joined the group.
"Give me a ciggy." Louis whined, looking at the smoke escape between Zayn's lips.
Zayn nodded and took out the pack of cigarettes from his back pocket as well as a lighter.
"What did you say?" Liam questioned directly toward Louis.
"I may have said that marriage was pointless." Louis mumbled as he blew out the smoke.
"Why the hell did you say that?" Liam asked sounding a bit annoyed.
"Because, after like Five, Ten years of marriage people just usually get a divorce." Louis explained his theory then took another puff from the cigarette. "My mum's gotten a divorce twice now."
"You can't argue with that, Louis' kinda right." Zayn defended while filling his lungs with smoke, his parents had gotten a divorce Ten years ago.
"But you can't just tell him that you think marriage is pointless." Liam tried to explain but Zayn and Louis stood there with blank faces while Tristan was obliviously having his own conversation with Melanie.
"It's not that Harry's expecting you to go down on one knee, at least not yet. But he's hoping that you will do it someday." Liam exaggerated on the word 'someday,' "but, by you saying that marriage is pointless, you totally crushed his hopes."
"Oh!" Louis and Zayn awed in collusion, Liam rolled his eyes hopelessly before he chuckled at the amusement of Louis and Zayn.
"Harry!" Louis exclaimed in excitement as the curly haired lad approached. He practically jumped from his seat and ran toward the younger boy, Louis opened his arms in order to hug his boyfriend, but was disappointed when Harry pulled away.
"What?" Louis asked, sounding frustrated as well as a little bit annoyed when noticing the furrow between Harry's eyebrows.
Harry didn't reply instead glanced down at Louis' hand; almost immediately Louis let go of the grip he had on the cigarette, and scrunched it with his feet.
"Harry, I-" but before Louis could even speak Harry turned to walk away.
"Fuck!" He groaned to himself as Zayn wrapped a sympathetic arm around Louis' shoulder, they all headed for the entrance of the school upon hearing the bell ring, signalling for the beginning of class.

Finally, putting the mop and brush away in the janitorial closet Zayn sighed a breath of relief. He glanced up at the clock on the wall, it's 5.37 pm. He's spent an hour cleaning classrooms, he had cleaned about five today.
Normally Zayn's usual idea of 'cleaning' was shoving everything under his bed, most of the time his mum would see the mess and yell at him about how lazy he is, but she would usually become so frustrated with the mess that she would clean it up herself.
When getting into the driver seat of his car, Zayn rolled his neck creating some cracking sounds from tensed muscles.
Placing his left hand on the steering wheel and turning the key of the ignition, Zayn drove off in the direction of his house while his Black Veil Brides CD was blasting through the speakers.
As he signalled into the highway, he noticed it was blocked by some cones, the road on the other side of the cones was having some construction work done to it.
