Captured

chapter 28

•Renae's POV•

The annoying sound of my alarm clock on my phone goes off. I groan and make myself get up as I reach for my phone turn the alarm off. Summer was officially over and although it wasn't the best summer for me I enjoyed it. I rub my eyes and look around my room for no apparent reason. I finally pull myself out of bed and open the curtains to my balcony doors as the sun rays shine through my room. I open my door and make my way downstairs and into the kitchen. "Good morning!" My mom calls out as she pull out some toast. "Morning" I say and put my mug under the Keurig and pop in a green tea. I then walk over to the fridge and pull out the wheat bread and strawberry jelly and pull out a knife from the drawer behind me and pop in the bread into the toaster. My mom hands me my green tea and I set it aside waiting for my toast to come out. I walk over to the cabinet and grab a plate and put the toast on it. I spread the jelly on the toast and as I put the jelly and bread away in the fridge I take out some raspberries and put some on my plate. I put back the raspberries and carry my plate and mug over to the kitchen table as I sit down and eat my breakfast.

I finish my toast and the last of my raspberries and put my plate in the sink. I grab my green tea and walk out of the kitchen walking upstairs to my room. I finish my green tea and put it next to the flowers on my desk and close the curtains. I strip myself down and make my way into my bathroom to take a shower.

I put on my blue high waisted denim skinny jeans, my white t-shirt tucked in, and a black long cardigan. I scan through my shoes and decide on my black toms and turn on my curling iron waiting for it to heat up. My mom walks in and stares at me for a little. I hated it when she did that. "What time are you getting out of school today?" she finally opens up. "2:15" I say and start to curl my hair with the wand. "Okay..well I want you to pick up Sofia and Ethan from school at 2:30" my moms orders. I nod my head and look at her. "And then straight home!" She tells me with a serious look. "Okay, I know" I tell her. "Okay" my mom says and walks out of my room. I look at clock, 6:45. I had to be at school by seven, my first class starts at 7:15. I finish the last of my hair and put on my perfume and lotion. I grab my bag and and walk out my door closing it behind me. "I'm leaving" I say as I walk over to the bathroom and see my mom doing my sisters hair. "Okay, I'll see you after school! Love you!" my mom says and smiles. "Love you too!" I say and walk downstairs and out the front door locking it behind me. I walk to my car and turn it on. I check myself in the mirror and look closely at my eye. At least it isn't swollen anymore. I back out and drive to school knowing that I'm going to be the talk of the school.

I pull into the school parking lot and park into a space next to a classic mustang. I look at myself once again and get out of the car walking into the side entrance. I take a deep breath and walk in and everyone's eyes turn to me. I continue walking down the hall and stop at my locker putting in some of my stuff that I don't need. I suddenly turn around as someone pokes my underarms. "Oh my gosh you scared me!" I say to Zayn as he grins and laughs. "That was my point" he says sheepishly. "So um what's up?" I ask. "What's your first class?" he asks looking over at the paper in my hand which was my schedule. "Physical Science. What about you?" I ask tippy toeing to see his schedule. "Me too. With Mr.Donnor?" he asks grabbing my schedule from my hand and compares it with his. "Yeah" I say and chuckle. "Well we only have one class together" he says and hands me back my schedule. "Alright" I say and bite my lip. It then got awkward and we both just stood there. "About yesterday.." I start to say. "Don't worry about it I get why you like Liam" he states and starts to walk away. "Wait but Zayn I never said I liked him!" I say and a few people turn our ways. Zayn walks up to me and looks at me in the eye. "But you said you would date him" he says and licks his lips. "That's because you asked. If someone were to ask if I'd date you I would say yes" I open up. Zayn grins and looks away. "Why me? You know I though you wanted to get away from me!" he says and chuckles. "Oh that's right!" I say and close my locker walking away from Zayn. "Wait that's no fair! No!" Zayn shouts and grabs me by the waist pulling me close to him. "Zayn stop" I say and turn around attempting to lose his grip. "You aren't going anywhere!" he says keeping his grip on my waist. "Zayn seriously we need to get to class" I say as I try to pull him hands off my waist. He was really strong, my God. "The bell hasn't even rang yet" he says and pulls me closer. I turn back and look up at him and can't help but smile. "Come on well let's get to class!" he says and puts his arm around my shoulder as we walk to class. The bell rings and everyone goes their separate ways.

We walk into Physical Science and I noticed that Ginnet and Vanessa and Louis are in this class as well. This should be an interesting class. "Oooo how's your eye?" Louis asks as he sits down next to Zayn and I do the same. "Fine" I say and turn to see Ginnet sitting next to me. "Hey!" I say and smile. "Hi" she says and smiles back. "You're still talking with him?!" she asks pointing to Zayn as he talked to Louis and Vanessa. "Yeah...Well I don't know" I say and bite my lip. "What do you mean you don't know?" she asks with a confused look and tone. "I'll explain later" I say and look down. "Okay" she says and stares around the classroom. "Do you like him?" she opens up out of curiosity. "That's the thing..I'm trying to figure that out" I say looking behind me making sure Zayn isn't listening. "But Liam" she then says. For some reason I feel guilty but it's not like I was starting to get serious with Liam anyways. "Good morning class! Welcome Juniors and Seniors!" Mr.Donnor calls out as he enters the classroom. "I'll tell you later" I he'll Ginnet and she nods her head. Please don't tell me that I'm starting to like Zayn. My phone vibrates and I open the message.

'Everybody talks ;)'

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
