Long chapter. After a long time.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I yelled at Zayn who was cleaning my locker.

"Well, I should be asking you that. Where were you?" he asked casually.

"Oh! I just went to the market to get some towels to clean a mess my friend did to my locker.You idiot!! I went home." I took a step closer to him.

"I didn't do it!!" he yelled back at me.

"Oh, yeah!? Everything is gonna be easy now that he's gone. Ringing a bell somewhere? Zayn?"

"I swear it wasn't me. It was Natalie." he yelled again in frustration.

Of course, it's that bitch.

"Fine. Then why are you hear cleaning up her mess?" I knew it wasn't Zayn,but should I believe him?

"I'm cleaning yours not her's. Why couldn't you just tell me that you had gone home?" he asked with a frown fixed on his face.

"Don't change the subject. FYI, I did not ask you to clean my mess. This always happens Zayn, one moment we are good friends next thing is we are on each  others throats. I'm fed up of this. Admit it, you like the kind of life where your noticed all the time. Guess what!? I don't. We are not anything more than two people who live under the same roof. That's it. From now. This very moment." I don't know from which part of my brain I am talking this, I hope it's the sense full side of it.

"Nev,I-..," he started but I cut him off. " I drove for two fucking hours so just get me back home. I wanna sleep." I whispered turned around and walked towards the parking lot.

"Or you know what? I'll stay at Kim's place tonight. I'm taking the car. Just tell Lola...no I'll text her that I'm not coming." I said and shoot a text to Lola telling that I found Zayn and I'm going to Kim's and another for Kim.

"Nev, I can tell that you haven't believed me. Why don't you just get in my head and see whether I'm telling the truth or not?" he finally opened his mouth.

"I promised you that I wouldn't, so I wouldn't."  I replied.

"Is that so? Are you a keeper of promises?" he asked and I nodded. "Then do one thing, get inside Natalie's head and see whether she did or not." he suggested. I just stared at him and got inside the car.

"Nevah.  I have to tell you that this is your decision," he reminded me.

I know! I know that it wasn't you. I'm just so full of myself to accept what you tell just like that.

"And I have to tell you that I ain't gonna regret that." I started the car and drove to Kimaya's house.

"Hey, buttercup,Morning." Kimaya's mum woke me up with a warm smile fixed on her face.

"Morning Mrs. Desai," I yawned and walked towards the washroom.

After freshening up and deciding what to wear, we both went downstairs to have breakfast. Kim didn't ask me what happened in detail, I just said that I had a fight back home. I didn't tell her about Zayn confessing about Natalie. Of course, How can I ? It wouldn't make any sense to her.
