Chapter 28

*2 weeks before*

Nathan's POV (bam surprise!)

"... I don't understand why I'm the one that has to go" I whined

"Nate mate, we've got to get in their head. Fuck with their mental state. You're the perfect one to do that!" Max explained

"Whyyyyyyyyy"

"BECAUSE YOU'VE FUCKED LEIGHTON" he shouted

"meaning you're already in Liam Louis Niall and Harry's heads" max continued

"You've got to do something to get into zayns!" Tom added

"No one can get to him though... I don't know what you want me to do" I pleaded

"Stop fucking around Nate! Do u want to be with us or not!" Tom shouted

I didn't want to do this, sure messing with the others was fun sometimes but this seemed a bit extreme. But I did as they expected of me

"Fine, ill do it..." I groaned

"At a boy!" Siva cheered

*present time*

Zayn POV

After watching the obvious flirting nathan was throwing at Louis, Harry left to chase after Lou speeding off in his car. Liam and Niall decided to go back to class, which left just leighton and I.

"I need a fucking drink" she moaned

"Me too" I agreed

She looked at me with an evil sparkle in her icy blue eyes and a smirk played in the corner of her lips which we covered in her deep red lipstick.

"I know the perfect place!" She said excitedly as she grabbed my hand leading me to her car

We drove for about 45 minutes before we ended up at a bar called The Basement. As soon as we pulled up a guy not much older than us came out and waited for us to get out. Leighton exited the car first.

"HEY SCOOTER! I bought a friend with me for some drinks I'm sure you won't mind though!" She said with a mischievous smile playing at her lips.

" I told u I can't-"

As soon as I stepped out of her car he stopped talking, his body started to shake and he avoided eye contact.

"What going on leighton?" I asked confused

"Nothing just chatting" she winked at me " now about that drink scooter?"

"A-anything t-thing you want guys" he quickly shuffled back into the bar

Leighton POV

Watching scooter tremble in Zayns presence instantly made my day better. He knew all I had to do was tell Zayn the secret I had about scooter and Sophia and it'd all be over.

Zayn would tear this place to pieces.

"Lei what's with him?" Zayn asked

"I don't know he's always been weird"

As if on cue to make things worse for himself scooter walked over.

"Hey mate how's Niall and Sophia doing?"

Idiot.

"Nialls great... Tell me though how do you know Sophia?" I asked instigating

"Yeah how?" Zayn added raising an eyebrow.

"I. We. We're old friends. " scooter said nervously as zayn started to clench his fist.

Zayn knew all of Sophia's friends.

"How do you. Know. Sophia. "

"Mate I told you old friends nothing weird" scooter muttered before he walked away

Zayn looked back at me questioning why I had a huge smirk on my face.

"What do you know leighton?"

Oh shit...

"Nothing zaynie baynie"

"You're full of shit!" He half shouted

He was starting to piss me off. I didn't let anyone talk to me like that. Ever!

"Tell me what the fuck you know leighton!" He moved closer to me gripping my arm tightly " leighton don't be a bitch!"

I snapped, I slapped him firmly across his face standing up from the booth.

"FINE" I pointed to scooter. "Sophia and scooter fucked last year when you guys were having a rough patch. She begged me not to tell you and that she was sorry." I looked him in the eye. "Fucking happy now? Don't u wish I hadn't told you?" I asked in a condescending tone.

He froze i expected him to be mad at me for hiding this or for throwing it in his face bit he didnt. He just stood and turned towards Scooter and walked to the bar leaning over

" ill be back for you" he whispered before shoving scooter back causing him to knock over some bottles

" get me to Sophia now" he said plainly before walking out the door

Zayn POV

Sophia cheated on me with that... Thing.

I needed to know the story straight out of her mouth. If it was true I would make sure Jes would handle her and make her life a living hell!

We pulled up to Sophia's house and I started banging on the door screaming her name. I turned to see leighton siting on the hood of the car watching everything that was happening. She was entertained by the drama.

Sophia still wasn't answering so I started kicking the door. I could feel the anger building up inside of me. I was gonna snap.

I just wasn't sure when or how badly.

I landed one more kick denting the door before if slowly opened.

There she was standing in front of me with a pair or sweats and a white tshirt on. She smiled until she looked back and saw leighton.

"Shit" she mumbled under her breath.

Her face fell from a smile to a frown and she looked down at the ground. I could feel the veins in my neck starting to pop out.

"Scooter" was all I had to say for her body to start shaking violently.

I felt no sympathy for her.

"Zayn I..." She trailed off

I kicked the potted plant beside me sending of crashing in to the brick wall.

"Tell me the fucking truth Sophia" I growled at her

She took a deep breath and looked up at me before she started speaking.
