Going the Right Direction(A One Direction Story)

Mind Reading? Yeah, Sometimes It IS Real

*Dai's POV*

Rec started and I spaced out a little while the introduction was going on.

First of all, Harry's similarities to me had creeped me out more than it should; but I knew it was just a mere coincidence.. Right? We where in London for god sake's, there could be thousands of people who looked at least a bit like me.

Niall? I still didn't know what to think of him.. I was tired and decided to check my sanity tomorrow morning when I was well rested.

Liam.. He was ok I guess. But I had this feeling we where maybe not going to get along well... But who knew? Time would tell it all. It was just the first day after all.

Next was Louis. Damn I wish that kid would shut up, really. Never in my life had I met someone as loud as him. But hey, I thought he was kinda' funny, maybe I could get along with him fine.. If he just lowered his voice more..

Then there was Zayn.

He knew something, something about me; and I had a really bad feeling. I'll have to talk to him someday about it.And there was something different about him.. He radiated this weird energy. I could tell right away he way different from the others, not just the other four boys, but from everyone else in the planet as well.

Something moved to my right and made me get out of my trance. Niall had slightly moved, and our knees were now touching. Not that I didn't mind.. No, no, stop it Dai, you do mind. I moved my knees and bent them to the right, making it look casual as I could. But obviously I failed a little. As always.

I felt myself blushing and Niall turned to me and smiled really shyly, his smile making it's way up to his eyes as well. Two really small dimples formed at his cheeks. He was adorable.

Damnit Dai, weren't you more into bad-ass guys?

A chuckle to my left made me look at the floor. Zayn was looking at the screen, but I could see his smirk. Why did it feel like he was laughing at what I'd just thought?

I looked to where Harry and Louis were, only the see them fast asleep; Louis hugging Harry, and Harry resting his head in the crook of Louis' neck.

Strange boys.. Maybe they where gay and where an active couple? Pop stars where the weirdest in my book.

Zayn chuckled again, and I turned to see Niall giving Zayn a weird look. He then turned to me and shrugged.

Suddenly, a scary part of the movie caught me off guard, I tried to muffle my scream, and insted accidentally squeezed the thing closest to me.. Which turned out to be Nialls' hand.

I blushed deeply, and started to take it away, only to be held on place by Niall.

I looked up at him, and saw that he was almost beaming, so I returned him a smile, and rested my back in the couch, still holding his hand.

Maybe I was a stranger to affection, but for a change this actually felt nice, and above all, it seemed right. Our fingers where interwined now. They fit perfectly together. But no, he's not for me, I thought. I'm meant to be alone. Forget it all Dai, just forget it..

By the half of the movie, I felt like I was about to pass out from tiredom and slowly closed my eyes.

I was about to go into a heavy sleep, when I felt my head move a little to the right landing on something soft and nice-smelling, while an arm circling my shoulders, but since I was to tired, I just ignored it and finally drifted away to sleep.

*Zayn's POV*

I had to admit, Dai was smokin' hot. At least for me.

Altought the minute she came into the kitchen (To find me and Harry fighting for a cookie.. Embarrassing, I know) I couldn't stop thinking how much she looked Harry. I mean, they could've been twins for all we knew!

But na, Paul would've told us. She was his niece after all.

Then when we were called by her into the living room, I gave her a reading.

You might be wondering what that is. You see.. When I turned 18, this weird thing happened to me; I was walking home from school, and passed this old lady by the street. She looked really happy, and as soon as I passed next to her, I could feel her happiness.

It flooded trough me, entirely. I took over all of my being, I couldn't feel anything else but that. And then, I heard voices in my head, tiny words, that only lasted a second. Then, she walked away and it all came back to normal. The happiness was gone, my mood was back to normal, and I was confused as HELL.

But it's been over a year of that, and now I know what it is.. I can read people's minds.

At first, I could just read their moods, but as I learned how to control it better, I could hear their thoughts, their secrets, their weaknesses.

After a month of my 18th birthday, I became aware of another 'power'.

I was walking back to Harry's family bungalow (we were in a holiday) after dark, when I felt someone behind me. I tasted the mood in the air and felt the giddiness and excitement of another person, but it also contained fear, nervousment and caution.

I suddenly knew I was going to be attacked. So when I heard footsteps running behind me, really fast, I spun around and struck out my arms to protect myself.. And it just happened.

Two beams of fire shot from my palms and hit my attacker full in what appeared to be the face. He stumbled onto the ground and didn't move or make a sound anymore.

Had I killed him?

At first I was terrorized. How could I be capable of this? Of killing someone with fire from MY hands? Let alone the killing part.. How could fire come out of my hands? I thought I wasn't normal. First mind reading, now this? What else? Was flying next? All of these questions bombed my mind for what a seemed a long time. It wasn't normal. It couldn't be real.

Suddenly, I saw the person stirr on the ground and saw that I had hit him on the arm, not the face.

I took a closer look and saw that my "victim" was a homeless person holding a knife. So I just stood up and left, not wanting to let anyone know it was me. That a freak had done that.

After that, I kept my powers only to myself, not even the boys know. But I can fully control them and in a weird way, I love it. I mean, how many 18 year olds, who are hot like me, have mind-reading and can shot beams of fire powers? None? Well duh, it's only me.

So, where was I? Oh yeah, Dai.

I took a read at her mood first: nervousment, a bit of excitement, sadness, stress, slight anger and sorrow. Sadness and nervousment were the strongest.

When I finally slowly creeped into her mind, I almost gasped out loud... She, cuts herself? On purpose? Holy.. Wow. That's why my head had snapped so fast to look at her full in the face.

Liam had giving me a 'are you insane?' look, and laughed to myself as I heard him think how weird I was.

If he only knew..

How could this girl, who seemed so quiet and sweet be capable of doing such thing to herself? I just couldn't picture it.

But another thing was Dai's mind. As soon as I left it, I regreted it. It was fascinating, I wanted more. I wanted more of Dai's mind.

It had something everyone else's didn't have. Also, her past intrigued me, I wanted to know all the shit about her cutting herself. I wasn't going to let go of it easily. I was going to find out why.

No matter what it would take.
