They Don't Know About Us

Chapter 11 Zayn /

The lads and I came to Allan's office and I saw Jasmine, Allan and Gwen. Both girls were laughing as they looked at their phones. They looked at each other and started to crack up again. I saw Liam rush towards Jasmine and gave her a kiss, Gwen taking a picture of them.

"Hey, guys!" Allan called out. We all looked at Allan, who had a folder in his hand. "Come, we're going to be really busy today." Allan said. He then looked at Gwen and gave her a relieved smile. "Thank you so much you could come, Gwen." He smiled.

"My pleasure." Gwen smiled back.

"You're coming with us?" I asked. Gwen nodded gleefully. "Why?" My eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"Why, you guys don't want me here?" She asked, crossing her arms as she bit her bottom lip.

Feeling guilty, I shifted my weight to my other foot as I scratched the back of my neck. "I didn't mean it that way-"

"I know, Zayn. I'm just messing with you." Gwen laughed. I saw Jasmine wink at me as Liam has a goofy grin on his face. Not knowing why they are looking like that, I pushed my thoughts away and focused on Allan.

"She has the whole week off from modeling and she said she could help." Allan answered for her. "So, here are our plans." Allan told us as he read from the folder. He told Jasmine what she has to do as Allan informed us what Simon said.

We have a photo shoot and we knew that it's going to be a tough afternoon. The lads and I tend to fool around during shooting and photo shoots. One time, we couldn't even make Harry pose correctly since he goofs off and do hilarious poses. It was a force of habit since we like to annoy photographers and directors.

As we came to the park, where the photo shoot is placed, we noticed that the shoot was almost ready. The cameras and the lighting aren't set yet so we had to wait a little longer. We all sat in each of our tables as the stylist and make up artists got us ready. To change, we had to go inside a tent so no one would see us in our underwear. Of course, Jasmine had a different tent since she's a girl and we cannot see her bra and underwear. Also, Liam would bead at us for looking at her girl as she changed.

As I came out of the tent, I saw Gwen holding a camera on her hands and go someplace else. Curiosity got to me as I followed Gwen to where she's headed from. I felt someone grab me on the shoulder, stopping me from where I'm going. I looked back and saw Liam with a confused expression.

"Zayn," Liam said, holding me back as he grasped my shoulders. "Where are you going?" He asked, his brows furrowing.

Thinking quickly, I saw our van. An idea crossed my mind. "I forgot something from the van." I said quickly as my excuse, smiling at Liam to not worry. "I'm coming back." I respond. Liam looked unsure, yet he let my shoulder and go and nod. As Liam walked back inside the tent, I started to follow Gwen.

Gwen looked at the view in front of her, which I noticed was really amazing. The green hills staying very still, the birds chirping like there isn't any problem in the world. Tree leaves swayed slowly like they are dancing the hula. The clouds on the blue sky that looked like cotton. I smiled, seeing that there was a girl that looked as pretty as the view. And she's standing next to me. I watched her turn on the camera, focused it on the view, and started taking pictures.

I walked over to her slowly, not making any sound. I quietly stood next to her, the breathtaking view capturing my eyes. "What an amazing view!" I exclaimed.

I heard Gwen gasp, unaware of my presenceI felt Gwen jump and almost trip, but I caught her by the arm and the waist. I could That was when she looked into my eyes. It was like I can see through her soul. There was fear and loneliness in her eyes, but not from my presence but because that's what she was feeling. She looks vulnerable, so weak. When she knew what I was doing, she looked away as I noticed what position we are on.

I removed my hands from her arm and waist. "That was close." I said, feeling a little guilty for scaring her. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have scared you." I apologized.

She looked at me again, now with a smile. "It's okay, Zayn. You didn't mean it anyway." Gwen said, continuing to take pictures. I watched her for a moment as she captured the view.

"I didn't know you take pictures." I said, amazed as I saw a glimpse of what she took. "Since when did you like photography?" I asked her.

"Since, like, forever." She exclaimed. "Me and Jasmine love photography! But Jasmine likes filming more than me. Since we were young, we kept on editing photos." Gwen explained. I nodded, looking back at the view as Gwen continued taking pictures.

"So, about the dance," I looked at her slowly, Gwen slowly letting her camera down as she looked at me. "Thank you for teaching me." I thanked her. "I didn't know dancing would be that fun." I smiled, she smiled back.

"No prob." Gwen said. "But I think you still need a lot of work." Gwen joked. We both laughed.

"There's a reason why I have a shirt that has a print of 'Cool Kids Don't Dance'." I smiled. Gwen laughed and shook her head.

"Hey guys!" We heard Jasmine call out. "We're starting!" She shouted. I looked at Gwen and as she looked at me. We both looked back at Jasmine.

"Coming!" Gwen shouted back. I caught a glimpse of Jasmine wiggling her eyebrows as she winked before walking back to the set.

"Jasmine," I heard Gwen say. "so ambitious." She shook her head. I was confused at first, but I didn't want to ask anymore questions. As Gwen cleaned up her tripod and her camera, we both went back to the set.
