When I woke up , I thanked God for not making me yell Zayn's name because when I opened my eyes I saw Kimaya's face , who was sleeping soundlessly . We both went to school in her car . I slowly opened the locker , I heard someone shout Zayn's name .

Zayn . I did not see him for 2 days .

I turned over , so that I can at least steal a glance of him . He was turning his back towards me , when he turned I noticed that he was trying to ignore me . That's when I saw the small violet patch on his jawline.

"What the fuck!!Who the hell did this to you? "I practically yelled by reaching our for his hand . Literally, everyone was looking at me.Shit.

He frantically looked around and raised an eyebrow at all the staring people in the hallway. They just looked away as though nothing happened here . Actually speaking nothing happened here.

I felt Zayn's grip on my hand and the next thing I knew that I was being pulled by him out of the hallway . He pulled me out to the parking lot and -PooF.

I seriously didn't know where we were . There was a curtain on one side and lots of dusty boxes on the other . We both where standing facing each other.Ok , we both were standing straddling each other."Um...where are we??"my voice came out softly.

"Backstage," he replied swiftly.

His gaze was piercing into my eyes . There was this stupid silent tension between us that has never happened before . Looking at his eyes I knew that he was not going to break it . So I came out with the first thing I saw, "Who did this to you??"I slowly touched the bruise over his cheek down to his jaw. He turned his face slightly leaning on to my palm , his other hand caught a grip over my hand.He closed his eyes and was smiling into my palm.

We just stood there like that for a minute or so in that strange but most comfortable position.

"Zayn...," I whined. "Hmm, " Hmm?? That's all he can give right now??? "You did not answer me ." I state bluntly.
"Can't you look into my head ?" He asked without changing his expression or his position . "I promised you that I won't . I haven't and I will not. "

He slowly opened his eyes , "So your a person who keeps up her promises , huh?" . I simply nod . I could feel his chest rise while he breathes.We are that close.I wanna get more closer though.As if he heard my thoughts,he leaned a little closer till our faces where inches apart."Then promise me one more thing that you-,"I seriously did not know what he was about to tell , because the fucking bell went on . We both moved away a little.Ok fine. I moved away ,he did not.

I did not want to though.

Only when I move away, I feel the other hand of Zayn that had creeped onto my waist. This tight space between us sure did a weird thing to my stomach.

Butterflies?

I slowly find myself blush under his touch.He scoffed. I chuckled. We both looked again . Fuck , the bell rang.

PooF.

It was lunchtime and I have been smiling to myself ever since the 'backstage' awkwardness between me and Zayn.

I was surely searching for him . But,he was with his posse . I did not want to cause a scene in front of the others , so I just ignored .

"Hey...,"Kimaya called  me. I smiled at her in response . "So sad that boyfriend's moving??" she kind of asked in a mocking voice.Jake . That's when it clicked me,it was Jake . I don't know why or for what , but I just have this gut feeling that it was him . I can check it out.

I gave my tray and went in search of Jake . I saw that he was sitting with Zayn and his gang . Probably telling about his departure. I hated to interrupt but I had to.

No.You can't do this. I mentally scold myself . I turn my back towards them and walk out.

I texted Jake telling that I was near the benches and waiting for him . He showed up after ten minutes . He sat next to me, "After talking with Zayn I actually feel that the long distance relationships don't really turn out good."he stated.

Ok??

"But I'm scared to leave you like this."

"Like what?" I asked with my voice raising.

"I don't know ...,"he runs his fingers through his hair."I just don't feel like leaving you here when guys like him are around .." I looked around for trying to find out whom he was  mentioning , even though  I knew who it was. "Who?"I ask . "Like Za- You know what ? Why should I care ? Let it be like this . Will you come over till my house after school , I'll be leaving right after." I simply nod for his question .

**

Zayn smiled a little when he saw me . "I'm going over to Jake's." I said and his expression changed. "Why?"he asked with a frown.

"Because he's....ummm... my boyfriend."I answered.

"So that you can love him goodbye?"he asked all of sudden,looking away from me.

"Can't believe I actually thought that I will comfort you for Jake beating you up . But boy I was wrong . You deserve it." I turned swiftly and started walking out of the woods . "Nevah." he called out,his face covered with doubt's.

"What??I missed you,Zayn. Okay?But I guess I should be glad that I missed just  a jerk."

"I don't  know why but I don't like you going over to his place." Suddenly his face was filled with sadness. I raised an eyebrow. He just let out a sigh. I turned around and went back.

I came back late and I had asked Leo to pick me up because I was not talking to that asshole. I reached the living room and I saw Lola keeping ice pack over Zayn's patch. I just ignored him and went to my room. I closed my eyes and that memory of me and Zayn standing close to each other came up. It's those butterflies again , Why is it happening?

I skipped dinner and went to bed . Wait a minute . Why am I angry over him??He did not do any thing wrong.
