I woke the next day,and let myself get distracted, running through my morning bathroom ritual.

School was always depressing, but today topped them all.

Last nights events had been tattooed into my brain.

No big of a distraction would let them simply disappear.

I tugged the brush frustrated, yanking out bits of hair in the process.

Sighing, I set the brush down and counted to 10 in my head, my hands shaking.

I was so mad at Harry. My head was screaming at me that he was a big douche, but my heart told me to forgive him. But why?

'Maybe because he's Harry from One Direction!', a voice whispered in the back of my mind.

I groaned, and trudgged downstairs, grabbing an apple before I started the short walk to school.

******

School was different today, I thought whilst walking to the cafeterria. People who had never spoken to me in my entire life were suddenly saying 'hi' in the hallway, and people seemed to notice me. Maybe my make-up looked pretty today? Shaking it off, I headed for Emily in the cafeterria.

A look of distress and excitement flashed across her face as she looked up from the magazine she was reading.

"What ya reading", I said casually, plonking down beside her, trying to peek over her shoulder.

"You never told me you were dating Zayn from One Direction? I mean, he's dating Perrie, and how do you even know them?", she continued to ramble on.

I quickly snatched the magazine from her hands and read the title.

'The Zatoria Scandle'.

I quickly skimmed the text.

Zayn Malik from One Direction has always seemed to like the ladies, almost as much as his fellow bandmate Harry, but we always thought he was the faithful one. Spotted kissing Harry's pressumed 'friend' Victoria O'Harra, the world went sent into a shock spiral as pictures emerged and thus 'The Zatoria Scandle' was born.

Now, we know where Zayn is, and WHO he's been doing, but where's Perrie in all this? On tour? Crying herself to sleep? Flirting with guys on a deserted island? We will never know.

I stopped reading, and sat there, gobsmacked, starring at the blurry image of Zayn and I pressed up against a tree, his hands all over my body.

"I..i..er", I tried to speak, but nothing came out.

Emily had a sorry look plastered across her face, but you could see the excitement etched into her features.

"So, since your dating Zayn, ya think you could hook me up with Harry?".

My heart constricted at the words she said. I had decided I was still angry at Harry.

I gave her a small smile, as I dropped the magazine on the table, letting my chair scrape against the floor.

"I'm going to catch up on some extra study", I said to Emily, before biffing my lunch and heading for the cafeterria exit.

I would not bail on school. Not this time. I just needed to clear my mind.

I travelled along the outskirts of school.

No matter how much I kept telling myself I would not skip class, I found myself resting against a tree as the final bell of the school day went.

I squeezed my eyes shut, pushing away from the tree.

I guess I could only walk home now.

Screams erupted from the carpark and my curiousity got the best of me.

I made a sharp left and navigated my way through the crowd.

"Vicky", came a raspy voice, causing my head to whip up.

"Zayn?", I asked insanley confused as my mind wandered back to the article.

"I,,uh...handbag", he said passing me my bag.

It was obvious he'd seen the article too. Standing there, he looked like a sad little boy.

Despite the rumours, I pulled Zayn into a tight hug.

Girls around me grunted and yelled rude things, but I only held him tighter.

"How are you and Perrie?", I whispered.

"A bit rocky, but we'll manage", he breathed uneasily.

I let go of a breath I never knew I had been holding in as I pulled away from Zayn.

"That's good, I'd hate to ruin your relationship just because I'm a drunk loser", I said, nudging his shoulder.

A smile lit up his face and I smiled back at him.

"You really are quite fit", he said, suddenly, grinning wickedly, after moments of silence.

I was taken aback by his words. The girls screams only got louder.

"Zayn..I.,I, uh..i gotta go", I said awkwardly,turning away and heading home.
