Lunch.
I placed my gruel on the table and squidged myself between Niall and zayn who were bonding. On the other side of the table sat my girl best friends Katy and Jenny a new girl called.. Hannah, and a very stroppy looking Louis squidged right on the end.
Halfway through my 'dinner' our table had lost words, Louis had always been the one with the words but today he was a complete conversation killer. 'louis..' I growled when he interrupted Niall for the 8th time.. 'can I speak to you, over There." it wasn't a question,
'what the hell are you doing.' I hissed angrily.
'nothing.' he spoke bluntly and avoided my eyes. I laughed sarcastically and then spoke again.
'seriously Lou, whats up you were fine earlier?' this time I spoke softly because I could see he looked sad.
' well your my best friend..' he started.. ' and we always sit by each other in lunch and now all the new boys have just come along and been all happy and I got squished on the end by all the others and it's unfair coz it's always you and me!." he stopped to pause for breath, I had to bite my tongue to stop from laughing
geography..
'what? That's it?" Jenny asked.
'yep.' I chuckled,
'naww I think it's cute that he gets so jealous when other boys pay attention to you.' Jenny smiled dreamily. This is the thing I hate about my best friend, she's so romantic and soppy and girlie. Life is literally a fairy tale to her, she has her head in the clouds constantly. We were in geography, and I had just told her why Louis had been grumpy at lunch. The reaction I got from her was completely expected.
End of the day..
I met up with zayn and Louis and walked home, I had been worried that Louis might go all weird again but to my surprise he was overly happy. I actually began to wonder if he was faking it! When he got to his house he grinned at us both, put his arms around us and squeezed us in,said "see you tomorrow guys!!" and then he was gone. I walked beside zayn awkwardly, lost for words.
He cleared his throat, I coughed a bit, he looked at me "sooo...." he began. I smiled but my brain had disconnected from my tongue and I was completely speechless! He was still looking at me and I felt myself begin to blush. I silently screamed to myself to speak, and I did. But I wish I didn't.
"so umm.. What do you have tomorrow?" I asked. He smiled again, I could feel my insides just like, explode.
"I have history, spanish, science and art. You?" he asked.
"geography, Spanish, science and art." I replied. Then we actually began speaking properly and it was all fine.
"look jade why don't we part here, my house is down here." zayns voice sounded on edge, did he want me to go? I told him it was fine.
We were walking down a lonely street, one I didn't usually walk through. Zayn was talking but he wasn't all there-attention wise- (I don't mean his arms were still at school or anything, ha. I mentally reminded myself to never become a comedian.) his eyes darted up and down the street and he was twitching slightly, tugging at his shirt collar continually.
Suddenly out of nowhere a black car with blacked out windows came careering down the street, pulling up right beside us. I began to panick because zayn had gone as white as a sheet, I could see beads of sweat on his forehead. Two men in suits got up from the car and glared at zayn. Then they grabbed him by the shoulders and shoved him in!
I completely froze, terrified, what was happening? Why did they grab him? Was he being kidnapped? I only realised I was running when I was all the way down the street. When I got around the corner I slowed down, leaned against a wall and collected my thoughts. I ran over our conversation, first he had told me to go the other way, then he began panicking before the car showed up, and he hadn't looked shocked when they grabbed him, in fact, he didn't even struggle.
He hadn't been kidnapped, he had known it was coming, he had even tried to ward me off, what had I just witnessed?
