A little bit of fun (Ziall)

Chapter 13

It certainly is hell for sure.

Suddenly, I felt something against my wrists and I realized Zayn just handcuffed me so my hands were bound together right in front of me. Except it wasn't just normal handcuffs made of metal. It was misty just like the contents of the bottle Justin gave me and even though it's pure gas (at least I think it is), it binds my wrists together like how a normal handcuff do. 

"What the hell?" I asked. I can feel betrayal and hurt gnawing at me.

Zayn had the audacity to chuckle. "Hell indeed"

"Let me go" I huffed, I was nearly in tears. What if this was Zayn's evil plan all along? What if he was never in love with me? What if he just wanted to catch an angel and prove himself to everybody?

Zayn saw my tears and began shushing me and wiping them away from my face quickly. "Niall, I have to do this okay? But I'm only pretending. You have to pretend that you're human and that I'm taking you to the devil's council because I’m not yet sure if you deserve to be in here. I promise I'm not setting you up. I love you, okay?"

I smiled when I heard him say those 3 words. He seems genuine enough and even if I stare into his eyes, all I see is love. "I love you too" I smiled, feeling all warm and not just because of the heat in the underworld. I do hope Zayn is a horrible actor because I think I might just die if I find out this is a secret plot all along.

"I wish I could kiss you" Zayn sighed.

"What's stopping you" I teased even though I know exactly what's stopping the both of us.

"Everything and everyone but us is" Zayn sighs again but he quickly snaps back to reality. "Let's go, so we can get this over with" and I nodded in agreement.

Zayn proceeded to tie a misty leash on the handcuffs and began dragging me forward; he would occasionally look behind him and make sure I was following him. While, we were walking along, I found the occasional humans getting dragged by other devils. Those devils would say hi to Zayn while pulling on the leash hardly so that their human prisoners won't escape.

Unfortunately though, we passed by one of Zayn's lesser friends, who happens to be a girl as well.

"Hey Perrie" Zayn smiled as she spat at her human prisoner.

"Hey Zayn" she smiled at him before her eyes traveled to me. I made a point to stare at the rocky ground but I can feel her gaze on me. "You're lucky your human is silent, mine's been trying to get away since we got here" the human she caught was another girl with black hair and brown skin. As if to prove a point, she started tugging away from Perrie, who in return, pulled her back and stepped on her feet, making the brown girl whine in pain.

I gulped. I looked at Zayn and he actually looks very amused by the scene before us.

"Well, catch you later Zayn" Perrie smiled and I did not like the wink she sent him. Not one bit. 

When Perrie was out of earshot, I tugged on the leash. "What was that!?" I hissed.

"What was what?" Zayn was confused.

"Who is she?" I hissed.

"She's Perrie" Zayn shrugged. "A friend and an old lover" but before I could say anything he continued, "I have no feelings for her anymore. We ended ages ago"

"I don't think she's aware of that, assuming from the wink she sent you" I was fuming with anger and yeah, maybe jealousy.

"Aw now look who's jealous" Zayn teased.

"I wish I could kiss you now to shut you up" I huffed and only got a tug. 

"We have to go, we already wasted an hour" We continued walking as I wondered how that took an hour when I could have sworn it was only 10 minutes since we landed.
