But I wanna tell em'

Chapter 4: our little secret

It had been two days since one direction has been staying with us. Paul died suddenly so the boys are pretty much stranded. The past two days have been inzayn (ha). Liam and Georgi are together, and Louis and Cleo really hit it off. I think Zayn has been flirting with me but it's hard to tell because he's such a Bad boy and he's so mysterious. Poor Conchabar, she has feelings for both Niall and Harry. How can a girl choose from emerald orbs and green locks and blonde quiff with blue orbs. Kim has been out of town visiting her parents and will be back today.

I sighed and stood up from my bed yawning and stretching my arms. I walked into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. My long brown locks were slightly matted and my hazel eyes sparkly. I threw my hair into a messy bun and walked back into my room. I put on some nike shorts and my crazy mofos t shirt. Hopefully Nialler wouldn't notice.

I walked down the steps and panicked when I smelt something burning. I jolted into the kitchen and my eyes almost popped out of my head.

There lie Cleo in the floor her big purple tail flopping on the ground, and her eyes were panicked.

"I-I was cooking pancakes and I got some water on me help!!" She cried.

I hurried over to her to try and help. The girls and I were the only one who knew Cleo's secret. She was half mermaid half human. It was freaky at first but we accept Cleo however she is.

I gasped when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

"I'm gonna put  you in the cost closet come on" I said gripping her arms under her shoulders.

I drug her around the corner and stuffed the fish into the closet.

"Try to dry yourself Ill come check on you when it's clear." I said and shut the door. I hurried back to the kitchen to find Zayn throwing out the rubbish pancakes.

"Morning" I said and he jumped slightly.

"Sorry love you scared me." He chuckled with that perfect Bradford accent.

"Sleep good?" I asked getting more pancake mix out.

"Very good love." He said smiling at me. My heart thumped out of my chest as he reached up to caress my face. Or I thought.

"Had a dry boogie" he chuckled flicking it into the floor. How embarrassing!!

" o-oh thanks" I said as I flipped the pancake.

We chatted and laughed for a few minutes before hearing more footsteps. Conchabar came down with Harry, I guess she chose!! They were laughing about something Louis had said. The Irish lad soon appeared behind them as did Georgi and Liam.

"Where's Cleo?" Louis asked and I choked on my water.

"Erm she is in the bathroom, might want to give her a bit the tacos from last night aren't sitting well." I said and he nodded. Really Shelly???

"I'll be back guys help yourself to the food." I said walking towards the closet I had shut Cleo up in.

I carefully opened it and she stood up, the tail had disappeared.

"You okay?" I asked patting her shoulder.

"Yep, but hungry" she said running into the kitchen. I went to follow her but got yanked to the side into the hallway on the way there.

I was faced with Zayn's golden orbs. He really was gorgeous.

"Don't freak out but I've wanted to kiss you ever since I laid eyes on you" Zayn said.

"W-what??" I said surprised.

"I want to kiss you." He said leaning in.

I too leaned in. Before our lips collided a loud grumble erupted from my stomach causing me to pull back with wide eyes. Zayn laughed and pulled back also.

" I guess I better take care of that." I said turning to walk into the kitchen. How awkward!!!

After breakfast we decided to all watch another episode of greys anatomy since we all got very into it two days ago. I was seated by Zayn and Conchabar. I smiled as Harry sat by conchi and she snuggled into him. All of the girls were smuggled into a boy. Except nail had no one, poor Nialler.

Zayn casually slipped an arm around me. I smiled and turned on greys anatomy.

We were enjoying our show when all of the sudden the program stopped and breaking news flashes on the screen.

"Just two days ago after being chased by crazed fans one direction found refuge in the ladies room at the local McDonald's where they sought help from 18 year old fry cook,  Shelly Maxwell. Witnesses say they escaped through a back window and stuffed into Shelly's car. Harry styles was also spotted getting stuffed into trunk in order for the boys to all fit. Good news for directioners we found out from possibly reliable sources that Zayn Malik indeed did not quit the band, he was simply left in Tokyo due to falling asleep in the airport washroom."

I jumped up and my face was a deep red.

"That's so embarrassing everyone knows I'm a fry cook and there's a picture of me  falling out of a window head first." I said putting my hands over my face.

"You looked fine love." Zayn said wrapping and arm around my waste. I resisted the urge to jump on top of him and kiss those bad boy lips.

"At least they don't know you stunk up that bathroom." Boobear laughed along with hazza and daddy direction.

My face turned a deep shade of red. 

"Hey the whole world knows I fell asleep on the toilet in Tokyo." Zayn said laughing. Soon enough we were all in a fit of laughter rolling around on the floor.

We were interrupted by a door opening. I smiled and jumped up engulfing Kim in a hug.

"I missed you kimmy!" I said squeezing her tightly.

"I missed you too Shel!" She said hugging me back.

"Okay why is one direction in our living room?" Kim said drilling her bags on the floor.

"Long story short they are hiding out here for a bit." I said and introduced her to the boys. Niall grabbed her hand and kissed it causing her to blush.

We are all gonna end up in one big love fest! All I know is I'm really falling for this Bradford bad boy, but the question is, will he break my heart?
