Adopted By Three British Bands *ON HOLD FOR MAJOR EDITING*

Chapter 13-Don't Lie To Me

“Uh no?” I said in more of a question .

                                              He got up from his seat and walked towards me. I stepped back a step back. My breathing became quicker. He was really close to me at this moment.

“Em…” He started.

“Let’s just go we can talk about this later.” I said avoiding any eye contact with him.

                                              He nodded and walked towards the door. I followed him out the door and towards his car. It was a weird a awkward tension in the air. I said no words to him and he said no words to me, but he kept on looking at me through the rear view mirror. I just looked outside the window. When we did get to the venue I walked out and followed Zayn. When we got into the stadium I followed him through the corridors. I walked into the girl’s dressing room while he walked into his and the other boys’.

“Hi.” I said plainly.

“Hey, who was school?” Perrie asked.

“Same old, same old…” I said.

                                              She smiled. They were all rushing around the room and I’m guessing they were looking for something.

“Um…guys…what are you doing?” I asked.

                                              They all looked at me.

“We might have lost the microphones.” Jesy said.

                                              I face palmed.

“You guys are idiots, 1.) Who loses microphones? And 2.) They’re right in front of you.” I said pointing towards the microphones.

“Oh.” They said in unison.

“Well go on, go do your singing.” I said.

                                              They nodded and walked out and doing vocal exercises while walking there. I stuck my head out of the room to see that the other doors opened already and they walked out. They followed the girls there. I soon heard music starting and singing.

                                              I wasn’t really in the mood to watch the performance, so I just stayed in the girls’ dressing room playing around on my phone and reading some book. For half of the time I was on the couch upside down with my legs hanging over the couch. My head was hanging off of it and I know sooner or later I will drop the damn phone.

“Um…Em…what the hell are you doing?”

                                              I looked away from the phone and I saw Jesy upside down wearing the clothes she wore before. And the other girls were looking at me too, with clueless expressions on their faces.

“Nothing.” I said while getting up.

“Geez Emily did you grow taller over night?” I heard Jade ask.

                                              I actually had no answer to that. Maybe I did, because I can actually put my legs over the couch. I’ll probably just check when I get home or something. I followed the girls out the door and turned right.

“Em, can I talk to you for a minute?” I heard Zayn ask from behind me.

                                              I turned around and shrugged. He grabbed me by the hand and pulled me away from the group and into an empty hallway.

“So…” I started because I had nothing else to say.

“I want to talk about earlier…” He starts.

                                              Great.

“Um…what about?” I asked.

“You never answered my question.” He said.

“Where are you going with this?” I asked him.

“Were you crying earlier?”

                                              I knew it. I knew it. I knew he would ask me that question because I kept on dodging the topic.

“No, I wasn’t.” I said.

“Em, don’t lie to me.” He said.

“I didn’t.”

“Em.”

“I didn’t.”

“Em, don’t lie to me. You had puffy cheeks and red eyes.”

“Why do you want to know so much anyway? It doesn’t even affect you.” I said.

“Why won’t you tell me? I can help you.” He said.

“It’s too personal; you don’t need to know everything that goes in my life.” I said with my voice getting louder.

“Yes I do. I’m your guardian and I should know.” He said with his voice getting louder and angrier.

“No you don’t. You’re just like everyone else out there trying to find out everything about my life and use it against me!” I yelled.

“No I’m not.” He yelled.

“Don’t you dare lie to me. I have been adopted and been in the hospital more times than all 14 of you have together. And each and every time they lied. I’m not even going to get into detail. I’m going to find the others and leaving.” I said the last part quieter.

                                              I walked away from him and made my way back to the other part of the building. I soon found the others and caught up to them.

“So, what did you guys talk about?” Niall asked nudging my side.

“Nothing really.” I said.

“Are you sure about that?” He asked looking behind me.

                                              I turned around to see a furious Zayn. I walked a little faster and passed Niall and towards Liam.

“Liam, protect me here.” I said quietly once I got towards him.

“Why?” He asked.

                                              I pointed behind me.

“Oh…yeah…sure.” He said.

“Thank you.” I said walking a little bit faster.

                                              I got towards the van and sat in the back avoiding the awkward tense in the air. Thankfully, I didn’t have to talk to anyone or sit near Zayn.

                                              It was apparently 10 pm when I got downstairs. It was apparently a meeting that brought my attention. It was apparently something that involved me in their discussion. It was apparently something that I decided to ease drop on. It was apparently the meeting that made my cry that night. It was apparently something that I would never forget. And, after that meeting all 14 of them had, changed me from that day on.
