Foolproof [ON HOLD]

Chapter 5 - Now let me make you work slow

Harry has very, very beautiful lips. They're pink and plump and they look like they were made to be kissed- slow, passionate and fierce. His lips scream sex.

"You're staring," Liam says and I whip my head back from where I was observing Harry laughing with his friends over at their table.

"Shut up," I say lamely and Liam rolls his eyes as he goes back to eating his sandwich (it's peanut butter and jelly, Liam is actually a four year old inside). Zayn walks into the cafeteria right then and jogs towards us, balancing rolled up papers and books in his hand.

"Hey babe," he greets Liam with a kiss and I pretend to gag into my salad (the lunch options are shit anyways) and Zayn flips me off with a wide, innocent smile on his face.

"You have detention today?" Zayn asks me like he hasn't asked me the same question every day for the past week.

"Yes, I have detention today," I answer like I have been answering every day of the past week.

"Your boyfriend's an idiot," I throw a lettuce at Zayn, who squeaks indignantly. But Liam doesn't say anything, still focussed on his sandwich. Normally I would have got 'No, he isn't' and a 'shut up, Lou' and I'm slightly worried. Liam's been acting weird the entire week, not talking much and staring at me like he wants to say something but he doesn't.  I know Zayn's noticed it too, but he told me that it was gonna be all right if we gave Liam some space. And since I really don't understand the concept of giving space, I had pestered Liam almost every day asking him if everything was okay.

"I'm fine, Louis" was his answer all the time. Liam didn't call me Louis unless he was annoyed or upset.

See, something was wrong.

Zayn pulls at Liam's sleeve and Liam looks up at him. There's the smile he always reserves for Zayn on his face, but it isn't bright like the other times. Zayn doesn't seem to notice that though and he whispers something in Liam's ear and suddenly it's like nothing's ever happened- Liam's proper smiling now and he's throwing the lettuce back at me.

Maybe, something wasn't wrong. I'm not exactly the best person for these things.
