A One Direction Summer (Completed/Finished)

Up All Night

Chapter 20: Zayn’s POV.

I pushed West aside as I scrambled through the floor trying to get to Scarlett’s side. Eleanor was holding Scarlett’s head on her lap while Julianne tried shaking her, and at the same time Nora and Danielle where trying to get her to stop jerking Scarlett around. My side hurt a lot but as I reached her I gently pushed the girls away and held Scarlett in my arms.

“Love wake up” I whispered in her ear, but she made no sign to move.

“Scarlett open your eyes now, I’m here and I wont let him hurt you” I said now a bit desperate as she stayed motionless. I felt a warm drop slide down my cheek making me realize I was crying, I began to shake her a bit violently.

“Scarlett open your eyes now please” I begged her.

“Zayn you’re going to hurt her” West said kneeling opposite of me.

“She’s not waking up” I looked at him and then back at Scarlett “He. Hurt. Her.” I said and the rage that I had felt before when I had seen that guy dancing with her came rushing back like a tsunami but a hundred times worse. My body began to shake and I had to get the anger out some how. I gently placed Scarlett on West’s lap and got up I looked around and spotted the man I had been looking for, he was about to step outside. Without any warning I launched myself at him once again, my vision turned a bloody red as I began hitting him over and over again. I could hear distant screams but they where all jumbled up and I could not make out any words, but it didn’t matter I had to give this guy what he deserved for hurting my Scarlett.

Some yellow and red flashing lights appeared in my sight of vision but I kept pulling my arm back and bringing it back down with as much force as I could onto the guy. He had stopped trying to push me away and I didn’t understand why, then my vision started to become clear once again as I felt four strong arms pull me from where I had the guy pinned down. I tried to get away to give him one last hit but the arms kept me in place. Then a stinging pane radiated from my check as my head jerked to the side, and I realized someone had slapped me I fixated my gaze on the figure in front of me and saw Eleanor with her hand ready to slap me once again.

“What the hell is wrong with you!” I yelled at her and the arms that held me pulled me back a bit.

“You weren’t listening” she yelled in my face, her hair falling out of the neat hairstyle it had been in “You almost killed him!”

“He deserved it” I half yelled, the pain I had felt at my side was back again.

“No, he might be an ass but he did not deserve that” she said sternly.

Why is she taking his side? Isn’t she supposed to be my friend? Scarlett’s friend?

“I’m not taking sides Zayn, but you crossed the line” she said finally as her eyes left my face and looked to my side. I turned and noticed that Harry and another man in EMT uniform had been the ones holding me in place, but then I looked behind them and saw the point of origin of the lights that I had seen earlier. An ambulance, two to be precise, both with the doors open, as stretchers where being carried inside, one with the guy I had been beating up. Wow I really had done a number on him, his lip was split wide open, both eyes swollen and his jaw seemed to be misplaced as it hung a bit open and loose while his right arm was twisted in a weird way that I knew for sure could not be possible unless it was broken. Then I looked at the other ambulance where the other stretcher was now being placed, Scarlett lay there ayes closed, with a air mask covering half her beautiful face and I saw West jump inside to sit beside her while Julianne ran to get in the front. Shit! Scarlett. I ran to the ambulance and tried getting inside, but one of the paramedics stopped me.
