Chapter Four-

I can't say lunch was just like any other lunch. In fact, it was probably the start of something bad. The way i spoke to Zayn, the way i rejected his 'friendly' gesture and the way he stormed out when i said no. The way he hit that table, the way he kicked over that bin.. i had a feeling he wouldn't allow me to live it down. He would most likely hate my guts until i left for yet another location, which i hoped would be soon.

Niall had informed me our last lesson was English, and in a matter of fact myself, him, Harry, Louis and Eleanor were all in the same class, which i was more than pleased about. If i had to have my last lesson on my own then that would be pretty awkward. Not to mention Mr.Zayn Malik who was most likely out on a rampage that was in search for my head on a stick. I could tell from his behaviour he was used to getting his own way, i wouldn't stand for it. Just because he walks around with his head held high and a cigarette hanging from his mouth didn't mean for a fact he had the right to insult and damage other people's self esteems.

"So, your sat beside me i guess." Harry smiled revealing his dimples and pointing to the seat beside the one that his bag sat upon. "We'll have so much fun." He playfully winked sliding into his seat as i awkwardly did so myself.

 "Great." I smiled trying to hide the fear in my body, causing my lips to tremble and my hands to violently shake. I carefully crossed my arms attempting to hide my emotions. The fear of knowing he could walk through them doors any moment and hurt me to the point of death scared me. I mean, he said so himself he would have? Plus what i said to him was out of my character, i shocked myself.

"Hey, are you OK?" Harry asked now frowning. Worry buried within his green emeralds.

"Yeah,i'm fine." I nodded almost convincingly. He raised an eyebrow in response, only begging from his eyes. "Honestly, i'm fine." I nodded again, taking my arms from under one another and bringing my shaking arms in front of me to the table. I was carelessly tapping a random tune onto the wood as the class began to fill up, my eyes warily scanning each being who entered still gossiping at my outburst earlier on. I felt a hand take mine that made me jump in my seat, flinching almost too dramatically at the sudden contact. It was only Harry.

"Wow.." He gasped. I was pretty sure my beating heart was visible through my chest that was continuously pumping all the oxygen in the air around my body. "Hey, he won't do anything. I won't let him." Harry squeezed my hand reassuringly, almost reading my haunted thoughts. The way his eyes just stared into mine hypnotised me. The way he made sure to hold my gaze with ever blink breaking the contact and staring at the detail of the brown in my eyes as i did for the light green in his.

"Thanks." I mouthed hearing the teacher stand from their seat and stand to the middle of the classroom. We let go of each others grasp as the teacher began handing out some reading books. The teacher was yet another middle-aged being, male, about six foot two, jet black hair mixed with light shiny grey. His eyes were hidden by frames that seemed to permanently sit on the tip of his nose.

"Right, class. Today we're continuing with Ben Elton." He announced. I felt a sudden phase of deja vu as i had already read this book last term in Leeds. Moans and groans echoed around the classroom while i slouched back in my seat. "Louis would you be so kind to carry on from chapter two?" He asked looking down on Louis who was sat behind me.

"Sure." He chirped. I took the book from the nameless teacher, and flicked to the right page we was asked to go to.

I can't say i was enjoying myself. That would be lying. It's boring watching the same film again never mind reading the same book.

I must have dozed off into my own dreamland as Louis continued to read the dragging sentences of Ben Eltons book 'Meltdown'. I was basically recapping the day, just thinking deeply of every word exchanged between myself and Zayn. The look of hurt and anger in his eyes just captivated me, it's all i could think about. The way his anger magnified his personality made me curious as to whether there were reasons behind everything he said and did with hate. It made me curious.
