Craziness At Its Best (Book 1)

Chapter 1

Lisa's Point of View

I was scared as hell. I had just moved into a new neighborhood in London because my mother was transferred from Liverpool and now I had to go to a new school and try to make new friends. I was never really good at making new friends or meeting people I general so I was sitting on my bed with my backpack lying next to me, about ready to shit my pants.

"Lisa! It's time to go!" My mother called from downstairs. My mother was my only friend and usually had my back, but sometimes she just didn't understand me. She was sympathetic to all my problems but really never understood what I was going through.

"Lisa, we have to go!" I heard my mother call again. Regardless, I didn't move. I felt sick to my stomach. I immediately went to the bathroom and threw up. Maybe I could convince my mom I was sick! Just as the thought came to mind, I heard my mother's soft footsteps outside my room. I heard the door to my room swing open.

"Lisa, are you alright?" I heard her say sweetly.

Noticing I wasn't in my room, she came over to the bathroom and knocked on the door.

"Lisa, are you okay, hun?" She said, sounding sincere.

"Yeah." I answered sarcastically. "Just throwing up."

"Oh, honey." She said, sounding genuinely sorry for me.

"I'm okay." I said, surprised with myself. I thought I wanted to stay home from school.

"I'll be right out." I said. What was wrong with me? It was like I wasn't controlling my own actions but I was to sick to care.

Five minutes later I was in my mom's car, driving to what I thought was going to be my personal hell on earth.

Zayn's Point of View

I was nervous. So fucking nervous. I was 25 and was about to teach my first class ever. It was 7:45am, the bell was going to go off in fifteen minutes and I didn't know what to do. I had had the lesson all planned out, but after going over it it seemed dull and uninteresting and I'm a pretty interesting guy.

I had been hired to teach English at a London high school. I had always wanted to be an English teacher. I think I also had a leg up because my friends Liam also taught here as the Biology teacher and that I had recently been in a boy band named One Direction. We had disbanded about a year ago but we are still friends and keep in touch.

Harry has found a girl and is trying to be like Simon Cowell and give out record deals.

Louis broke up with Eleanor and finally told everyone he was gay. This is partly the reason why we split up. Although none of us blame him, he has admitted that he feels guilty in some ways. Regardless, he is still in the music industry. He has found a man and is writing music for Ed Sheeran and people like that and sometimes dropping a few singles of his own.

Liam contemplated being a therapist but later decided to become a Biology teacher. He is currently single and even though he sometimes seems a little down that he's single and had been for 5 years, he trudged on in life, determined to find his true love.

Niall, like Louis, is writing music. After years of hard work and heartbreak, he finally got his star, Stella and they are currently engaged.

As for me, well, I broke off the engagement with Perrie about three years ago. We just weren't working out. I haven't been seeing anyone else since. I do admit I get lonely sometimes. I guess I just haven't found the right one yet.

The bell suddenly went off and I realized I had been sitting at my desk, thinking about the good old days. My mind returned to reality and I registered that students were walking into the classroom. I quickly stood up, obviously flustered and saw something that changed my life forever.
