Chapter 7~ Safaa and Brittany

Zayn's pov

When I woke up my back hurt from the strange position I'd fallen asleep in and everyone else had abandoned the living room. I looked to the clock above the TV set and it read 11:30. Holy crap I slept late!

I schuffled out to the kitchen and saw that no one was there either but I heard Louis shout 'take that Liam!' and I gathered they were outside. I headed over to the refridgerator and found a note taped to it.

Zayn-

us mums went into town for groceries we forgot. be back in a couple hours. there's pancakes in the fridge.

-Mum

I opened the door and found a plate with saran wrap hanging off of it. Instead of pancakes the plural, there was one left. I bet this was Niall...

I grabbed the pancake not bothering with a plate or utencils and stepped out onto the back porch. Everyone was already dressed and playing a game of footy.

"Look who's finally up" Liam, who was on the sidelines for a foul prehaps, noticed me and came over.

"Hey Li" I said gulping down another huge bite of pancake.

"I see you found your pancakes" Liam attepted to make small talk.

"Pankcake. One. Who took my other pancakes!?" I asked agrily. Niall is known for his love of food, but I get real grumpy when someone steals mine.

"It wasn't me" Liam raised his arms defensively.

I finished up the rest of my pancake and then hopped down the steps do join the game.

"Which team can I be on?" I asked wiping the melted chocolate chips off my hands.

"None untill you go put clothes on" Brittany insisted in a tone like my mum's.

"Why?" I asked looking down at my white tee and red plaid pajama pants.

"You'll trip on the pant legs now go change." She put her hands on her hips and pointed towards the house.

"I'm not even the only one in pajamas!" I protested looking around and seeing that Niall, Lottie, Phoebe, Safaa and Waliyha were still playing in pajama pants.

"Then all of you have to go change" Brittany decided. "Now go. All of you." she adressed everyone in the Pajama Club.

"Fine" I said turning towards the house once more. I didn't want to give in, but it was easier than arguing. I was the first in the house, so I managed to grab some clothes and go into the bathroom without having to wait. I kept on the same t shirt in protest, but changed into gray shorts like we have to wear in gym. I fixed my quiff a bit then started outside. On the stairs, I saw Waliyha now in a loose black tank and knee length grey leggings with her hair down. We were in the house without Brittany, I had to get it out of her what happened.

"Waliyha" I said and she turned. She looked normal except for her hair being down instead of its usual bun, but her eyes were what startled me. There wasn't the usual spark, they just held worry now. I suddenly grew more angry and defensive, but this time to find out what happened and sheild my little sister from it.

"Hey Zay" she replied and her voice sounded dead too.

"Now please don't run-or swim-away this time. What happened with you and Brittany? Why do you hate her so much? And what did she mean by 'don't tell' and 'Safaa gets it'?" I fired questions and I saw the growing panic. She looked around like she was going to run so I grabbed her wrist.

"Wali," I used the nickname she only let her close friends and family use. "please just tell me. You know you can trust me with anything."

"I can't tell you" she said softly.

"Why not?" I demanded. I was determined to find out before I go anywhere.

"Because!" she cried and started trying to loosen my grip on her wrist.

"Just tell me!" I said louder than I meant to.

"Because...Safaa" her answer made no sense but her eyes were starting to water so I knew it was bad. Waliyha had always been like me and tried to hide emotions-never crying.

"What about Safaa? Did someone say or do something to her? Brittany?" I asked gently and loosened my grip a smidge.

"Not yet" she answered giving up struggling and I knew I had her.

"What do you mean 'not yet'? Just tell me the whole thing and I promise I won't get mad" and I meant it.

"It's not you getting mad I'm scared of..." she snapped tears starting fall and voice starting to shake.

"Please just tell me" I pleaded. She looked at me for a moment and suddenly began to struggle against my grip. I clamped my fist down hard and she flinched so I let it go a little looser but still tight. Was she playing me? Crying to get me to let her go?

She stopped trying to break loose as suddenly as she'd begun. "You want to know?! You want to know what terrible thing your girlfriend did?! What terrible things she said?! To me?! To Safaa?! What terrible things she said she'll do?! I bet it's way worse than you've ever expected!" she exploded.

"Who?" I asked.

"Brittany!!" she screamed.

"Wali, please just calm down and tell me" I questioned. She took in a deep breath and calmed down the angry tears.

"At your birthday party last year, Safaa found Brittany in your room trying to kiss Harry. I heard shouting so I went to go see. Brittany was yelling at Safaa so I pulled Safaa away and asked what happened and she told me that. Brittany came over and said that if either of us ever told you she would hurt Safaa." Waliyha said as calmly as she could and my jaw hung open. Brittany tried to cheat on me with Harry.

"And don't be mad at Harry he was very mad and not cooperating at all. She must've threatened him too" she added.

"There. Are you happy now? Are you happy that Safaa's gonna get hurt?" she snapped and I closed my jaw so she wouldn't start freaking out.

"I'm not going to let her" I said but my voice cracked. As if on cue, an explosion noise erupted from upstairs followed by screaming.

I looked thinking I was going to exchange a glance with Waliyha but she was already running up the steps. "Safaa??" I called sprinting upstairs.

Smoke billowed out of the big room stinging my eyes. There was the sound of another explosion and the smoke amount doubled. It reeked and I could barely see. "Waliyha?! Safaa?!" I screamed realizing I couldn't see either of them.

"Brittany! How could you?! All of it! How could you!? I screamed angrily only to start choking on the smoke. I pushed past the cloud into the room. The flames lapped everywhere. Against the wall, on the beds, out the window. My vision started the blur and my throat stung so badly I thought it was on fire too. I was sweating like crazy.

"Waliyha?! Safaa?!" I screamed despite the pain in my throat.

There were people shouting my name and theirs downstairs but I could barely hear over the crackling. I called my sisters again. There was a huge explosion right next to me and I fell to the ground. My vision was waving until it faded completely black. I felt arms wrap around me and pull me towards the door. I tried to scream for them to help Safaa and Waliyha first but nothing came out. I heard another explosion but after that I couldn't hear anymore. I could still feel the arms around me struggling to pull me.

I tried calling for my sisters again but nothing came out like before. I felt the blow of air of another explosion an after that nothing.
