Zayn's POV

BOOM

A gun went off and people scrammed away from Louis, Web and I. You see, we rule this town. We aren't into drugs that much. We just like our territory and nobody messes with us. Well, not during the night atleast. During daytime or basically at school, I wear glasses and vests and nerd stuff. I'm pretty smart but my whole life doesn't revolve around school. But here's the thing. When I'm at school, everyone thinks I'm a nerd named Zack and stuff so they won't expect me as my real name Zayn or Zap. That's my street name and everyone fears it. I have the tattoo 'Zap' on my arm but I hide it. As a nerd, I always wear long sleeves and same with Louis. His street name is Sass Master or they call him Louis. At school, it's Lewis. Web's street name is Satan but she doesn't go to my school and she doesn't know about my fake identity. Anyway, while everyone is moving away from us we start walking home. A good thing is that nobody talks about us, even though we threatened them but they still don't. I make my way home with Louis and we enter our flat.

"Night Lou." I told him and he hummed in response. I took out my piercings and went to sleep.

I woke up with a headache but I have to go to school. We walk into school and some people avoid us, others push us around.

"Hey nerds. Ready for your morning beat up." some Jocks ask while all of them surround us. In case what you're thinking, yes I will be okay and yes I am strong enough.

Once the beating was over, I looked at Louis and asked "Did you hear about the new kid coming tomorrow?"

"Uh yeah. I hope she isn't a jerk. I heard she's transferring to our school and she already lives in this town." he answers.

We walked to all the boring classes, nothing exciting happened. It's the same everyday. After school we start walking to our house talking about the new student. Today we are just going to the gym because we need to keep shape. When we got home, we put on our piercings, changed clothes, grabbed out bags, and started walking to the gym.

"Alright Zayn. After this, Let's go to Starbucks. Then we have a few hours til night. How bout we go shopping with Web?" Louis says to me.

"Web hates shopping. We meet at Starbucks then go somewhere she likes because I don't want to die tonight." I answer.

"Yeah same. Let's just get to the gym. I'll text her." he says as we enter the gym. "She said alright and she wants to go to the mall to buy stuff at Hot Topic."

"Alright, cool. I want to get a blonde streak in my hair." I told him and then I walked away from him. "What if I was kidnapped and experimented on so I became some type of cat hybrid? What if my family never left me? What if my whole life turned around?" I muttered to myself. 

"Well first off. You would still be my best friend and you'll be even more dangerous with those nails and teeth. Then better hearing and smell. Next uh. You would probably be with them. And lastly, you can make anything out of it. Don't go thinking about how your life could be different. It wasn't our fault that we had a bad childhood and turned us like this. But now that we're like this, nobody can hurt us."

"Yeah I know Lou. But I still don't understand why we have to be so closed off to people. How do you know who's going to hurt you and who's not going to hurt you when you don't let anyone in? What is even the point in life? Like what's the goal of life or the meaning?"

"Zayn, Louis. You should let people in, you would actually feel something. You will feel love, hate, and more. The point in life, well, you just have to make the best out of it. You can't describe life in just a few words. The meaning of life and the goal of life are two different things. The meaning or point of life is really just what you do in life. Like become a doctor, or serve for your country. The point is just what you make out of it. The goal of life is just what you want to do with your life. Do you want to help people or become a heartless monster. You can make something your goal and make it your life's mission. The point is, you decide the point in life using your goal in life." Web answer behind them. "Anyway, after that sentimental moment. Let's skip the gym and go to Starbucks. I want to go to Hot Topic."
