Day 223

March 2nd, 2010

I had my phone locked to my ear as I was walking up to my locker before the first period. I felt the people's looks on my me and I wasn't liking that at all. 

- Is it really that bad ? The person I was talking to asked me.

- Yeah, Lex... I whispered, trying not to mind that the people couldn't stopped to stare at me. 

- I gotta go, Zayn. I'll be in Bradford this week-end, alright ?

- Okay, alright. Miss you.

I could felt her smiling when she hung up. Then I threw my phone in my pocket and looked up. I was at my locker but I wasn't alone. 

Mark was there, sitting on the floor. And he stared at me when I came in front of him. He was smiling, that idiot. I don't know why I was so mad at him. I had no reason to. He had all the rights to leave me all alone. 

- Didn't know you were back, he told me while he was getting back on his feet. 

- Yeap.

I unlocked my locker, before throwing what I didn't needed into it. Then I closed the door and started to walk up to my first class. Which he was in too. So he followed me and I just wanted to be left on my own. I didn't needed him, that guy that didn't even gave a shit about me. I entered the class and sat at my usual spot, just behind Elizabeth and Derek. Fucking Derek. He put his chair on two feet to lay his elbows on my desk. 

- You know what people are saying ? He asked me, with that smile that wasn't putting me in a good mood. 

- I don't care, I'm not like them. I can mind my own business. 

- They say that you're a attention freak. But I don't totally agree with them.

I stared at the wall in front of me, trying not to hear him. I didn't wanted to know, I didn't needed that. He stayed silence for a bit, just to add a bit more effects. 

- I think you're a fucking psycho.

Elizabeth tried to laugh quietly, but failed. Without thinking any more, I got up and grabbed my bag. The class was just starting but I didn't minded. I almost ran out of the room. Realizing at the end of the hallway that someone was following me.

- Zayn ! Mark screamed.

I did like I didn't heard him. I just continued to walk, more and more fast. He tried to follow me, he really did. I didn't knew why, back then. Now I do.

He didn't left me until I pushed the door leading outside, the one just next to my locker. He screamed my name, again and again. waiting for me to stop. But I didn't. I needed to get as far as possible, as soon as possible. Then he stopped running after me. And I only heard him whispered one last thing. 

- Come on Zayn... Don't shut me out...
