They Don't Know About Us

Chapter 14 Harry /

Something doesn't feel right.

The way Zayn looked at Gwen. The way Gwen froze when they looked into each others eyes. Something felt really wrong.

Jealousy and anger washed over me. Zayn promised me that he never liked Gwen. But what if Gwen likes him? I thought to myself. Zayn knew Gwen was mine. She was for me, not him.

"Zayn, can I talk to you for a sec?" I asked when we came in Allan's room. Zayn looked nervous when he saw me. His brows furrowed in confusion as I saw him gulp. Eventually, he nodded and we both walked at the corner, far away from the others to hear.

I looked at him as my eyebrows furrowed in anger. "What was that?" I asked him with an angered tone.

Zayn's eyebrows furrowed more. "What was what?" Zayn asked me with a confused yet nervous face.

I narrowed my eyes at him. I could feel heat boiling inside my body. "Why do both of you guys froze when you looked at each other?"

I saw Zayn gulp again and look at me with a straight face. "Nothing." Zayn answered. "It was nothing."

"Stop saying bullshit. Zayn, I'm gonna ask you this one more time. Do. You. Like. Her." I asked him very carefully and slowly.

Zayn kept in silence. He looked away and acted casual, putting his hands in his fromt pockets as he swayed back and forth with his heels. "No, I don't like her." Zayn said finally. "I already answered you that question, Harry. And I'll keep that promise."

I felt relief, but at the same time still angry. I stayed with a concerned face and looked at Zayn again. "I was just making sure." Though, I wasn't convinced. Something inside me says he isn't being loyal.

Zayn looked back at me and raised an eyebrow. "Are you jealous?" Zayn asked immediately.

I felt heat creeping up my neck and shifted my weight on my other foot, but I still kept a straight face on. "No." I answered firmly. "Why would you think that?"

"'Cause you're always asking if I like her," Zayn said.

My features started to soften and sighed in defeat. For some reason, I'm always being loyal with Zayn. "Maybe I am." I said honestly, putting my hands on my front pockets.

"There's nothing to be jealous about, Harry." Zayn said, putting a hand on my shoulder. "Everything is fine." He then looked at me slowly, as if he was reading through my mind. I got a little nervous and shifted my weight again on my other foot.

A few seconds after, Zayn had a questioning look on his face. He looked at me and spoke, "Wait, she's not even your girlfriend. Even if I don't like her, I could still get her."

Shockness was all over my face. I blinked at him twice as I thought realization hit me. Then something occured to me. Why did Zayn say that? "So you're saying that you do like her?" I asked, narrowing my eyes on him.

Zayn shook his head and his features turned to concern. "No, lad." Zayn said. "I'm just saying that she's still not your girlfriend."

I sighed and looked at him again. "You've got a point." I said. "It's just. . . I like her. I'll do everything just to get her. No matter what. She was the only girl who made me feel this way." I sighed as m features softened. Zayn nodded understandingly.

"I'll not interrupt with you guys again." Zayn said. I nodded. "Come on, Allan might be looking for us." He said, nudging my arm gently, a gesture he does when he's making us go somewhere. I nodded once again and we both went to the group.

Even if Zayn said that he doesn't like Gwen, it felt like he wasn't being honest with me. I saw how they look at each other. How Zayn acted different when Gwen is around. How Zayn's eyes shines when he sees Gwen. I saw spark and something else that I can't put my finger on. I bet even Gwen is falling for him, too. The way they looked into each others eyes. When Zayn was with her, Gwen suddenly gives him a cheeky grin. She also acts different when Zayn is around.

He really does like Gwen. And Gwen likes him back. Jealousy grew inside, but I still acted casual so that they won't notice a thing.

But this is all wrong. Zayn can't like Gwen. I wasn't being selfish. Maybe a little, but not really. I mean, Zayn couldn't like Gwen. He already has a girlfriend. Perrie is already there for him. He couldn't just break-up with Perrie because he met another girl! A girl that's as beautiful like Gwen. They have been together for a long time.

What will happen if Gwen finds out that Zayn has a girlfriend? What will happen if Perrie finds out that Zayn likes Gwen? I have to tell Gwen before everything goes wrong. Before Perrie gets mad at Zayn.

Before Gwen falls in love with Zayn.

"Hey Gwen." I smiled as I walked over to her. Gwen removed her eye from the camera she was holding. She looked at me with her intense brown eyes and a shy smile, which made her more cuter for some reason.

"Hey, Harry!" She exclaimed, continuing to take photos. "What's up?"

"Nothing really." I answered. "So, what do you think about Zayn?" I asked. Gwen stopped clicking and removed the camera slowly. Her cheeks turned rosy red. I felt something twinge as I see her expression.

"W-what do you mean?" She stuttered, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

I bit my bottom lip and look at her with a straight face. "You know, what do you think about him?" I asked again.

Gwen pondered as I waited for her answer. As every second pass, I felt my heart twinge in nervousness and fear. "Well, he is a good guy." She finally answered. "A nice guy."

"Is that it?" Her cheeks turned to a darker shade of crimson. She was actually blushing more and more when I talk about Zayn. I felt my heart drop as I looked at her expression.

"His funny, and looks like a mysterious guy." She added. Her face dropped and looked at me with a confused expression. "Wait, why are you asking me this kind questions?" She asked.

I put my hands on my pocket to stop from fidgeting and looked at Gwen with a straight face. "Is it bad to ask?"

"No, not really. It's just that you're acting very suspicious today." Gwen answered. A concerned look crossed her face as her eyebrows furrowed. "Is something wrong?"

I sighed and looked at Gwen with a sad expression. "Gwen, there's something you have to know. Zayn-"

The ding of the elevator was heard and we both turned around. I was concerned yet relieved when I saw a blonde girl show up.
