"And may I know how did all this happen!?" Our Principal said, crossing his arms and glaring at each one of us. His eyes landed on Zayn.

"HE PUNCHED ME FIRST!" Zayn said, pointing a bloodied finger at me.

"Technically, I just tackled him to the floor and he started punching me" I said.

"And why did you tackle him?" Principal asked with his eyes on me.

"He was about to punch Louis!" I said, pressing a pack of ice against my eye.

"And why were you about to punch Louis?" the principal's eyes went back to Zayn.

"He was breaking up with me" Zayn grumbled and the principal rolled his eyes.

"And you?" he asked Louis.

"He was punching Harry and Niall! Of course I had to defend them!" Louis pretested.

The principal's eyes landed on Niall who sat beside me quietly. He didn't even do anything but he has the worst wounds from Zayn's hits.

"And you?"

"He didn't do anything" I said sternly. "Nialler is innocent. That bastard suddenly started beating him up!"

"No swearing in my office!" the principal said. His eyes bore into me and I felt uncomfortable. Thankfully, he faced Niall this time "go to the Clinic and hurry up before the bruises get worse"

Niall nodded quickly and stood. He nodded to me and Louis before leaving the office. 

As soon as the door was shut, the principal sighed and shook his head. He looked warily at me, Louis and then Zayn.

 "You know you shouldn’t punch people because they're breaking up with you"

"I didn't!" Zayn rolled his eyes.

"That's because I tackled you" I said.

"But still I didn't" Zayn sneered.

"Mr. Styles and Mr. Tomlinson, since it was for defense. You will have to go to detention for an hour later" 

I almost sighed in relief. At least it's just an hour.

"As for you Malik" The principal said, sounding really annoyed, tired and pissed off at the same time. "This is your 5th offense and I'm afraid you have to be suspended from school for a week"

Holy crap! I won't be seeing Zayn for a week! If only it was possible to jump and say 'hooray!' I would, but then that would cost me more than just detention.

Zayn groaned and Louis and I smiled secretly at each other.

"Okay. Dismissed" the principal said and Zayn was out of the office before I could even blink.

"Thank god we only got detention" Louis said as soon as we were out of the office.

"Yeah. Plus we won't be seeing Zayn for a week" I smiled. Louis smiled back but it didn't quite reach his eyes. 

Something from the bottom of my gut told me that he misses Zayn. And that made me really sad.

We made our way to the clinic to tell Niall about our little misfortune but when we got there, it wasn't the nurse who was tending Niall's bruises. It was Liam Payne.

Liam was gently dabbing a wet rug over Niall's face like it was porcelain.

I was about to barge in but then Louis stretched out his arm and pushed me back. "Let them be. Look at how happy Niall is" Louis smiled and this time it was genuine.
