Never Let Go (Ziall) *Undergoing EXTREME Editing

Chapter Ten: Taken

JEN POV

My phone rang. Jordon. I picked it up and answered it. "Hey Jen, we're going to grab a bite, wanna come with?" Jordon said.

"Yeah, I'm coming." I said. "So, Jen how's your new room mate?" Jordon asked.

"She's a..." I looked at my room mate who was sitting on her bed reading a book.

"She's.. nice." I replied. I've asked her name, and it was Shannon. I thought it was going to be a little scary, but she turns out to be really cool. "But, anyways, I'll come down, where are we meeting?"

"At the food court." He answered. "Okay, see you there." I said, hanging up. Before I walked out of the door, I asked her, "Hey, Shannon, wanna go get something to eat?"

She looked up from her book, and thought about it, then finally replying, "Sure, let me grab my jacket." We walked down to the food court and saw the boys sitting at a table talking.

NIALL POV

"Hi Jen!!" I called out. "Who's this Jen?" Jordon said, checking her out.

"Everybody, this is Shannon, she's my roommate." Jen answered. "Great, let's go buy something to eat." I said standing up.

I went over to the serving counter, and grabbed a tray. Then, I grabbed pizza, hamburger, and some fries. I finished grabbing my stuff, went back to the table and sat down. The food wasn't too bad.

Zayn came back with a salad and sat down next to me, followed by everyone else. After we finished eating, it was about 8 PM. "Hey, guys, there is a bowling alley here on campus, wanna go check it out." Shannon said.

"Really? That's so cool, I love bowling. Let's go." I said. It took us a while to find it, because the place was so big, and finally after fifteen minutes, we found love.

"Cool, this place is actually pretty big. Come on let's go play." Grabbing Zayn's arm, and to the front desk. "We would like to have two lanes please." I said to the person working there. I looked at his nametag, and it said Cody.

"Right, how many games would you guys like?" Cody said. "Uhm, we'll take two for now." I said. Finally, we went to the lanes, after we received our bowling shoes. We split ourselves into two teams. Zayn, Kyle and me in one, while Jen, Jordon and Shannon had the other.

"Get ready to lose, Niall." Jordon said. "Oh yeah? Losing team buys the winning team ice-cream." I said. We all agreed. Jordon and I went up to the lanes first with our bowling balls. We looked at each other and then launched them at the pins.

I saw my ball close to the middle, but not quite, and when it reached the end, it was 9 pins out of 10 down. I looked at Jordon, and he made a strike. Unbelievably. He smirked at me, and went back to the seats and Jen went up next.

I aimed for the last pin, and missed. I walked back with my head down pretending to be disappointed, and Zayn walked past me, patting me on the back, and I sat on the bench next to Kyle. We played on for about fifteen minutes, and the game was almost over.

In the end, here were the scores.

ZAYN - 113 Pins

KYLE - 109 Pins

NIALL - 101 Pins

JORDON - 116 Pins

JEN - 84 Pins

SHANNON - 97 Pins

That means we won, woo. We were going to get free ice cream. "Hah! We won." I said to Jordon, who accepted his loss, and didn't whine or anything. He had great sportsmanship.

"Okay, Niall, okay." Jordon said. We went to get some ice creams, and then went back to our dorms. I had so much fun today. I decided that it would be a good idea to write a new diary entry.

8/31/13

Dear diary, I had so much fun today, I actually did meet some new people, they wee nice and really cool people. Kyle has been a bit shy though, and Shannon was a little more outgoing. We all had a great time.

Well, I just thought that it would be nice to write something new in here, to make up for all those times I never could. Tomorrow is going to be another free day, before classes actually start. I don't know what we're doing tomorrow, but I hope it's going to be fun as well.

Zayn came out of no where and grabbed my journal. "What's this Niall? You have a diary? Aww that's so cute, am I in it?" He asked, flipping some pages. I was a little pissed that he just grabbed it out of me without even asking.

"Come on Zayn, give it back." I said, and tried reaching for it, but he raised it in the air and was much taller than me, so I tried to reach for it, but instead fell towards him. He caught me in his arms, and chuckled.

"Okay, I'll give it back, but you have to kiss me first." Zayn said. "Okay." I pecked him on the cheeks, "There, now give me my book." I said. "That doesn't count. Again." He said. "On the lips."

"No. I kissed you already, now come on I need to finish my entry." I said whining. He gave the book back, and I went back on the bed, to finish writing.

Anyways, if everyday was like this, I would be very grateful. Well, I'm getting tired now, I'll write back some more later.

-Niall

Just then, my phone rang, and I picked it up, it was Jordon. "Hey Niall, we're were going to go swimming tomorrow, there's a pool on campus." Jordon said.

"Oh, that's cool, let me tell Zayn." I looked over at Zayn, and he was on his phone playing some game.  "Hey Zayn, there's a pool here, you wanna go tomorrow?" I asked.

He looked at me and hesitated. "But only, if you are going to be by my side the whole time." He said. I smiled, "Of course Zayn." I winked. "Okay, yeah, Jordon, we're going tomorrow." I said. "Great, let me call Jen. Oh, and we're meeting at ten in the morning." He added, and we hung up. I wanted to go swimming again, and be able to swim with Zayn and I holding each other.

KYLE POV

So tomorrow, Jordon decided that we were all going to go to the pool. I am actually excited, because I love to swim, and I'll even get to see Niall again. It's going to be awesome. I just know it.

I'm really starting to fall for Niall, I like him so much, he's funny and smart. He was so cute today in the bowling alley, when he sat next to me on the benches. His disappointed face was adorable. Oh right, now that I think about it, I still have to tell Jordon that I'm gay.

"Hey Jordon, I have to tell you something." I said to him. "Yeah? What is it?" He said turning towards me.

"I'm gay." I said. He looked at me, and was a little surprised. "Oh, really? That's cool. I mean, I'm totally fine with it." Jordon said. "Yeah, and I need to tell you something else too." I added.

He looked at me again. "Uhhh.. yes?" He said. "I think, I like Niall." I said. "Oh phew, for a second I thought you were going to say you liked me." He laughed it off, before turning serious again. "Well, Kyle, there's something you need to know. Niall's taken." Jordon said.

My heart stopped. Niall is taken? What. "By who?" I asked leaning in wanting to know. "By Zayn. His room mate?" Jordon said.

"Oh......" I said. Awkward. "Oh, then... don't tell anyone though, I don't want it to get awkward." I said, a little embarrassed. "Don't worry Kyle, I won't. Your secret's safe with me." Jordon said, and then going to his bed to sleep.

How is it that all the good ones are taken. Just when I thought it was going to be great, now everything is so awkward. I didn't even realize that Zayn and Niall was dating. I'm so stupid for falling for him. Now, it's going to be so awkward when I'm around him.
