Chapter 21. Attacked

Aria's P.O.V

I just couldn't concentrate on work, Amy was constantly screeching at me. It took me so much to not just storm over to her and punch her face. The memories of yesterday just kept making me shudder, the good moments were shattered completely...

-Flashback-

Me and Zayn were just a few feet from his car until a few guys were walking our way, we thought they were just going to walk past but their deadly threatening looks made me tense up and I could sense trouble about to happen. When they reached us on of them grabbed Zayn by his collar, Zayn looked confused but he quickly shoved the guy away "Hands off man, what's you problem?" Zayn asked.

Then a guy came out of a, which was parked a few feet away from ours, and stormed our way with a creepy smirk on his face. Zayn eyes grew dark instantly and his fists clenched as he glared at the guy who was approaching us. I could do nothing but stare at the scene in front of me. Who were these people? Obviously Zayn knew the approaching guy. Were they part of a gang too? "Come on Malik, no need to stare at me like that, we're meant to be brother right?" The guy said as he finally reached us, his smirk not even slightly faltering as Zayn's glared at the guy.

Brother?

"Why are you here Austin?" Zayn growled, his hands slowly reaching towards something in his pocket.

"No need to be so rude and unwelcoming" Austin said, raising his eyebrows.

Then it happened, the sudden attack. They all charged towards Zayn, kicking him, punching him. I screamed and tried pull them away from him. There were too many, Zayn was on the floor now trying to fight back but failing as they all attacked him. The Austin guy just smirked at the scene then "Wait" He said.

All of the boys stopped, moving away from Zayn. I quickly ran towards a weak, broken Zayn and pulled him towards me. The group were nowhere in sight and the street was completely empty. How could it be empty? We were near the arena for crying out loud! Zayn coughed and spluttered out blood, I started to panic unsure about what to do.

"Zayn, are you okay?" I asked.

He just weakly nodded "Can you drive?" He asked quietly.

I nodded "Keys in my jacket" He said.

I quickly checked his jacket pockets until I found it in the left one and took it out. I helped Zayn up and helped him into the passenger seat. 

-End of Flashback-

I sighed, still remembering the shocked yet annoyed look on Louis' face as he stared at me as if to accuse me when we had reached Natasha's house. Louis was staying at Natasha's house and he has opened the door. He had taken Zayn home and helped him. "ARIA!" Amy screeched again as I stared outside the window thoughtfully.

I growled "WHAT?" I screeched back, causing everyone to stare at me in shock.

Amy was shocked too but then anger started to grow on her face "Don't you dare talk to me like that!" She shouted.

I sighed "Whatever" I muttered, before walking back towards the back of the counter.

It was dark and the shop was closed, it was just me and Amy so it was really frustrating and the storm outside wasn't helping at all. I had to stay and clean as punishment for 'showing attitude' and Amy was just there because she had some paperwork to do. Paperwork for Starbucks, sounds stupid. I finally finished cleaning everything and was about to walk out from behind the counter until I heard whimpering. Not like a dog but a person, it sounded so helpless and it was mixed with sobs. I looked around and walked back behind the counter to find Amy against the wall with her arms around her legs as she hugged them towards her chest, and she was trembling violently as loud sobs left her mouth.

I stared in shock "Amy? Are you okay?" I asked, walking towards her and crouching down.

"Please stay with me" She says, staring at me pleadingly.

"Um, sure" I say, and sit down next to her cross legged.

There were a few moments of silence until Amy spoke up "I hate my life" She mumbles.

"What, why?" I ask, staring at her with confusion.

"I hate my life, my brother is part of a gang and my parents are mental, I was forced to join my brother's gang which irritates me but if i hadn't then I would be on the streets with nothing right now" She explains.

"Oh, Amy" I say, putting an arm around her.

Suddenly I became curious, she and her brother were part of a gang? Which gang? Was it Zayn's?

"What's you brother's name?" I ask, curiously.

"Austin" She says, sniffing.

I instantly tensed up. Austin?! From yesterday? Oh how I hate that guy! "Austin Is your brother?" I almost growl.

"Yeah, do you know him?" She asks, glancing at me.

"Yes, he beat up Zayn yesterday" I said, my fists clenching and accidently fisting Amy's shirt.

"Zayn? Who's Zayn?" She asked.

"You don't know Zayn?" How can she be part of a gang and not know Zayn when her brother does?

"No, my brother's never mentioned him" She says.

"Never mind" I mumble, standing up.

"Wait, where are you going?" She asks, her voice full of fear.

"Away from you" I spit at her before grabbing my bag and throwing off my apron, walking towards the door without turning back.

I rush through the rain back to Natasha's house until I feel a strong arm around my waist, pulling me into darkness.
