Chapter 21

"I want everyone to write down an essay about jane austen's book The Northanger Abbey" Mr Frank demands and everyone groan.

"Oh come on guy we read it last week" he whips the blackboard

" i want you guys to write about what it made you feel while reading it , what it inspired you and what you guys have learned from it" the last bell ring.

"I want it typed by Thursday" he speaks as everyone's gathering their stuff.

By the time i finish collecting my book and notebook the class is empty.

"Miss anderson ? " its not until he say my name that i realize mr Frank is standing right in font of me.

"Yes"

"Can you do me a favor ?"

"Yeah . What is it ?" I throw my backpack over my shoulder and tuck my hair behind my ear

"Okay..i want you to - "

"Nothing" He is cut off by a man whose voice sound like thunder .

I look to where the voice comes from to see a middle aged man standing by the door.

"Blake" Mr Frank says ,his voice monotonous

"You can go now" who i presume is Blake, dismissed me. I look back to Mr frank and he nods

"hey! " Ellie waves me off as soon as she spots me by the school entry.

I clutch my backpack with one hand walk to her.

She's wearing white tee , jeans and huggs .

"Happy Birthday!" She squeals

"My birthday is not until a month Ellie"

"I know. But im so excited !" She beams

"Its not even your birthday"

"I know that too" she roll her eyes

"I already got your gift" she claps her hands

"Great" i say

"wanna know what is it ?"

"No"

"You're a total joy killer"

"I know"

"Look serial killer in sight" she nods toward... Zayn?

I know he can be dark and all , but why would she call him a serial killer ?

"Who Zayn ?" I laugh out loud causing Zayn peels up at us .

"Yes, do not look at him and you talk too loud" she whispers-yells at me making me laugh harder.

I want to tell her that he'll hear us whether she yell or whisper , but I bite my tongue. She's a human meaning that she won't understand , either that or she'll think I'm insane.

"You are going to get us in trouble" she grabs my chin and forces me to look at her.

"What you're scared of him ?" I couldn't stop myself from smirking.

"No" she lies

"Okay he's gone" she breaths

"Rumour has that he killed his girlfriend but the police report says that the girl was killed by an animal that may look like a wolf but bigger" she whispers the last word as if she's afraid that someone might hear her

"If the police proved his innocence , why people keep saying otherwise"

I know Zayn can be a obnoxious jerk sometimes- okay most of the time . But to call him a criminal here and there, I think its going over-the-top. Don't get me wrong I'm not defending him , besides last night he has been nothing but an asshole to me . But I wouldn't like it if people keep calling me a criminal when I'm not one. Calling someone a criminal is a really big accusation, although some people do not take this into account.
