October 15, 2013 - Tuesday

Nothing usually happened in the month of September, and it passed by pretty quick. I've been hanging out with Liam and Saige more, and I've became closer with both of them. Saige gives really great advice, and surprisingly Liam knows how to cook and bake better than anyone I have ever known. It would be nice to get to know the both of them more, since they're my only friends, except Rachel, Emma and the rest. 

Not to mention, I got closer with Niall and Harry also. I haven't seen Niall and Naomi hang around much with each other in school anymore, or maybe I'm just not paying attention. Yet, they were still boyfriend and girlfriend, and loved each other just the same. The thought of them still made me a bit iffy, and I didn't know why. Maybe, I'm just not use to it.

It was free period, and Rachel, Harry and I were walking down the halls coming out from the cafeteria. We walked by the jam-packed halls, and made our way through the doors and outside. We walked as we listen to Rachel talk about her taking her drivers test in a week.

"I'm so nervous." Rachel panicked.

"You'll do fine." I assured.

"I almost ran over my neighbor." She glared at me, "Twice."

Harry laughed, "You might wanna consider not driving at all."

By that, Rachel responded by hitting him on the elbow. He shrieked, and ended with laughter.

"I'm kidding, I'm kidding." Harry teased, "Maybe just maybe, they won't reject you."

Rachel again, punched him on the elbow. But this time, she aimed a bit harder. Harry reacts roughly, and covers his elbow to protect it. But he just laughs at the end, and I end up laughing too. She grabbed her phone, and checked the time. She looks back up, and glances at Harry smiling.

"You're late." She remarks.

"For what?" He looks puzzled.

"You were supposed to meet Niall at his football practice about 5 minutes ago." She said.

He silently gasps, and checks his phone for the time. He glanced at the time, and looked back up at us. He panicked, and kept pushing back his curls every 4 seconds. "Shit!" He ran off to the direction of the football field. We stood there, and watched him as he scurried off and disappeared into the crowd of people walking and talking.

Rachel laughed, and placed her phone back into her pocket.

"Niall's part of the football team?" I asked.

She nodded, and explained how this spring is going to be the most important game for the school. Also how they're going against the Falcon's, and how they're the biggest competition of our school.

"Let's watch the practice." She insisted.

I nodded, and mumbled the words "Okay."

"I'll go find Naomi and Emma, I'm sure Naomi would want to see Niall all sweaty and built up." She smirked and walked away to find them. I spotted the football field, and began walking. I was inching closer to the field, when I heard a vibration in my back pocket. I grabbed my phone, and saw a text from Rachel.

Rachel: i found emma, but i couldn't find naomi anywhere?? text me if u see her asap

I tapped the screen rapidly to reply to Rachel's message. I still walking, not looking at where I was going, but I definitely felt that I was going straight. Suddenly, I bumped into a tall teenage boy, with tall black hair coiffed to the side. He was fairly attractive, reminded me the first time I saw Harry. He lost his balance, but regained it by stepping back 2 steps.

He was looking down, but not at my direction. "Watch where your fuckin---" He looked up, and saw me and instantly stood stiff. He scratched his chin nervously and kept staring at me, not saying a word.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry." He apologized.

"It was my fault, I'm sorry." I declined his apology, since I'm the one who's really supposed to be saying sorry.

"Wait, your Louis's sister?" He recognized, "Casey, right?"

I nodded. "I'm Zayn." He introduced.

I looked at him. So this was Zayn, everyone kept talking about. This is the guy who Emma has a crush on, this is the guy who hangs out with Louis and Hayley.

"You're pretty." He leans in closer to me, and gets a hold of my hand. I jerk away, and step back nervously. I've never had a guy make a move on me, especially if it's a person I just met.

"S-Sorry, I don't like you.. that way." I muttered awkwardly trying to avoid eye contact.

He shrieked from laughter. "I'm just playing with you." 

I looked up at him, I didn't say a word.

"Listen, you're pretty and all, but you're not my type." He said, "I'd love to chit chat chatter, but I have a practice to attend."

"See you." He waved off in between the bleachers and disappeared.

Such an asshole.

I stood there, surrounded by winds of silence. Till, I heard footsteps lurching towards behind me. I turned around, to see Rachel and Emma approaching me.
