They don't know about us....

Chapter 22: Bradford Bad Boi

Zayn's POV:

Me and the boys had decided to have a boys night out and head out to the best club in town. I was clearly surprised at seeing all the girls there, especially Lila. I haven't talked to her in ages and i just don't feel the same. She only remembers Josh. I haven't said a word to her after the accident. I don't even think she knows who i am or what my name is. Miranda had been by my side through all this tragic nonsense.

I saw Josh and Lila on the dancefloor together and so many memories came flooding back. That night was my ever wished fairy-tale. I spotted Lila heading towards the bar and order what i think was a lemonade. I was relieved she wasn't drinking, it wouldn't do any better for her memory. For some strange reason i felt over protective over her and kept my eyes on her. A guy in about his late 20's asked Lila something which she instantly said no to. The stranger felt suspicious to me. I knew instantly he wasn't any good. Lila felt uncomfortable and got up the man did just as she did and followed her. She looked as if she was looking for someone. Josh probably. I sighed in frustration realizing she would just go running into Josh's arms like she always does. I looked down at my phone to check time, as soon as i looked up Lila wasn't in sight. And neither was the stranger. I instantly maneuvered through the crowds of people looking for Lila's familiar face. But nothing. I kept looking until i saw what appeared to be the strangers back side and it looked like he had Lila with him. I ran through drunk alcoholics trying to get through small gaps that would lead me to them. I finally reached what looked like some rooms at the back of the club building. They were dozens of couples hooking up and smoking. I walked passed them with my eyes burning from all the smoke and intoxication in the air. I opened random doors hoping to find Lila. I stopped when i heard Lila's screams.

"JOSHHH!!!"

I ran into the direction of her screams and reached the room with all the commotion. I opened the door to see the stranger raising his hand up to back slap Lila. All Lila did was close her eyes awaiting for the pain.

"STOP IT RIGHT THERE!" I yelled in fury. Throwing my fist square in his face instantly knocking him down.

Lila quickly ran into my arms, panting and crying.

"Its ok" i kept repeating trying to calm her down while she cried in my chest.

"Im glad you got me before he almost-" Lila started. I stopped her by placing my index finger on her lips.

"Thank you so much Zayn" she whimpered still crying.

I smiled. She remembered my name.

"How come remember my name?" i asked surprised while walking out of the club through one of the back doors. We started walking not knowing exactly were we were going.

"I was reading all my messages on my phone and i just instantly clicked with you Bradford Bad Boi" she smiled while looking up at me, she had dry tears on her cheeks.

"I don't even say that anymore!" i whined remembering how me and Lila came up with the name.

She started laughing uncontrollably, i joined her not being able to resist her contagious laugh.

"You know whats weird? About 7 minutes ago i was about to be raped and now were laughing like 2 complete idiots" she said laughing.

"It almost feels like the old Lila is back" i smiled we kept walking not caring where we were headed.

"Really? my mind just plays these tricks on me and sometimes i have weird flashbacks. And i don't know if their old memories or dreams" she said puzzled herself.

"What kind of flashbacks?" i questioned her.

"This might sound weird but me and you were dancing in a balcony and we told each other we loved eachother and it felt just like a fairy-tale" she said with a smile her eyes sparkled with all the lights of the city.
