Chapter 10
ZAFIRA'S POV
I stepped into the shower and felt the warm water trickle down my body, trying carefully not to let the water touch my hair since I'm straightening it today.
The water kept getting too hot so I had to turn it down a bit but then it got too cold so I had to turn the hot up...basically I spent the next 5 minutes trying to get the temperature just right. By the time I got the temperature to a good heat I decided to get out cos I don't like taking too long in the shower when some kids in the world don't have access to drinking water!
I slipped a towel around my body and walked out into my room to get my uniform. When I found it I quickly got dressed and went back into the bathroom to straighten my hair.
......
"By mum!" I called back to my mum as I left through the front door to go to school.
"Bye! Have a good day at school!" I heard her call from inside the house as I walked further and further down the street to school. I doubt that...
But after Harry and I went out for a drink yesterday, after we talked and became friends, it kinda made me feel less embarassed. Less worried about what everyone else thought because I know that Harry doesn't find it awkward. So that made the school day seem like it was going to be better, but Carol could do anything today to make matters worse. I'll just stick with Liam and tell him about what Harry told me, maybe Liam can help.
Whenever I think of him I feel like I'm forgetting something...I can't get my head around it though! What have I forgo- aw crap! I was meant to go over his yesterday but I went and hung out with Harry all afternoon instead! Damn it I'm an idiot! How could I do this to Liam?! He is probably thinking that I dissed him! He'll understand, I've known him for a long time, I'm sure he'll be ok with it once I tell him the news Harry told me.
I made it to the school gates and walked into the school grounds, spotting Liam's recognisable figure sitting at our table. I walked over only to notice that Serenity was there as well. I will never be able to act the same around her or look at her the same way again. Not after I found out that she stuck the pictures up, she helped Carol with her little scheme.
But I have to keep the act up. I approached the table and took a seat next to Liam, "Hey guys!"
Serenity waved and Liam didn't even acknowledge my presence.
I looked to him and sighed, "Sorry about yesterday Liam! I got caught up in...some things." I tried to be careful with what I was saying, making sure I didn't reveal anything to Ser, "But maybe we could hang out today instead?"
Finally, I got a response from him as he turned to face me and smiled, "Yeah, sure! It's alright! Sounds great."
I smiled, thankful that we were still on good grounds, "Good! That's great!"
Before anyone else could say anything the bell sounded for class and we all headed off our seperate ways. I'll tell Liam about Ser this afternoon, first I'll go home to drop off my stuff and get changed, then I'll walk to Liam's which is only around the corner from home.
For the rest of the day I basically dragged through classes or talked with Liam about this afternoon. I didn't run into Harry and I hardly even talked to Ser. Both of them were hardly seen by me so I didn't worry much. I just focused on Liam so that I could make up for accidentally ditching him yesterday.
The last bell sounded and all the gates to leave the school were jammed with kids trying to escape the school grounds to their freedom. Liam and I walked out of the gates and we headed on our way home. We talked about our plans for the afternoon, we were going to go to the corner shops to get some milkshakes and then head back to his house to hang out. When we arrived at his house I stopped to wave him off before turning off into my street to head home. I rushed inside the empty house as mum works late, and I chose out a simple outfit to wear. A purple, blue and orange floral top with some white shorts and purple vans. I dropped off my school bag, swapping it for my simple, blue, over-the-shoulder handbag. Then I quickly rushed back out of the house, locking it behind me.
I had to try and get back before 5:30pm because mum will finished work by then and I'm grounded. I'm just sneaking out for the afternoon.
I walked down the street while taking in the weather and the atmosphere. The sky was clear and there were alot of birds flying about for some reason. I turned the corner and came to Liam's house, knocking on the door and waiting for him to appear infront of me.
LIAM'S POV
I waved Zafira off and casually walked inside to get ready. I had the house to myself again since my family were still out, but this time there is nothing special planned to woo Zafira. I'm giving it time to happen whenever it will happen. I chucked on a plain white shirt with some black, baggy jeans. Just something simple for this afternoon. Then I sat down in the loungeroom and watched tv, waiting for Zafira. Hoping that she actually comes this time...
*knock knock knock*
I jumped up from my seat on the couch and walked over to the door, eager to see if it was Zafira but when I opened the door, I was greeted me Carol's daunting eyes.
"Carol?!" I asked, confused as to why she was at my door.
"Hi Liam, any time for a chat?" She asked in a sweet tone. What does she want. She didn't give me time to amswer as she gripped onto my arm and pulled me from my house. As she dragged me along with her I heard someone close the front door and then come up behind to me to push my alog the path, making it easier for Carol.
I tried to wriggle out of their grip but with both of them holding me down I couldn't get free. We came to a car which seemed to be Carol's. Carol opened the door to the backseat and shoved me in, blind-folding me so I couldn't see anything. I tried to call out for help but I had no time as I felt a soft, damp fabric rise to my mouth and nose. I smelt the strong scent before a strange sensation shivered through my body and darkness took over my body, remembering last that Carol and someone else had just basically kidnapped me...
