Chapter 12: Jade
-One Week later-
Zayn had become more distant than usual. Sometimes I’d find him outside the school, just gazing into space. I wondered if it was my fault...I hadn’t really been eating as much as I should…when I should…Okay, I haven’t been eating but I have my reasons! Christian and I are going to the beach and I need to make sure I don’t have a repeat of last time….It doesn’t matter anyways because no one is stopping me. My parents barely notice me anymore because surprise, surprise, they’re having a baby! Zayn has been too distant to notice and Toby doesn’t hang out with us much. I had heard that the breakup was bad, but I expected them to be friends after it all, but I guess….not. I STILL don’t know the reason though..
Yes, I’m an absolutely terrible friend. I just thought he would need some space. I sighed as I reached my bedroom door. I have to do the right thing here. I turned on my heels and went back outside, ignoring the calls of my mother.
I was surprised that when I reached Zayn’s house he was outside, doing the one thing we promised each other we’d never do. Smoke.
I stomped out of the car and grabbed the cigarette from him and stomped it onto the ground.
“What do you think you’re doing?!” I shouted at him
“What do YOU think you’re doing?!” He retorted
“What?”
“Not eating. Did you think I wouldn’t notice!!” He shouted
I looked down shyly.
“All because of this shit of a boyfriend.” He muttered
“Is that what this is about? Is that why you’re smoking?”
“Well, I thought. ‘Hey, Jade’s fucking up her insides, why don’t I do it too!’, “ He said humorlessly
“There’s nothing wrong with me! Or Christian!”
“Yeah really? When were you planning on telling me that your mom was pregnant?”
“How did you find out?” I asked quietly
“Our parents are friends,” He snorted, “See, you’ve changed! We told each other everything!” Zayn announced but for a brief moment his face flashed to guilt, but then to anger
He sighed.
“I just don’t think he’s right for you. You care about my input right?”
I nodded slowly.
“Then break up with him.”
I clenched my jaw.
“You know NOTHING about us.” I spat
“I know more than you think.” He added but I blocked him out, turning on the engine to my car
I drove straight to Christian’s flat, not having any second thoughts.
Aw, look what you’ve done Zayn ! You drove her straight into his arms. Now you guys see how toxic ‘Chade’ is. Unless you actually LIKE Chade, in which case I invite all Zade shippers to stare menacingly at you.
