Chapter Six: Jelousy and Pranks

Chapter Six:

            P. O. V. = Madison Newman

            I realize now the guys are terrible at hiking, I mean Niall the whole entire time whined about being hungry and when dinner is and all that junk,  Zayn would freak out every time a tree branch would hit his hair and make it slightly (not that you could notice) crooked, and Louis fell every few paces. I mean come on, are Harry and Liam the only ones who’ve ever hiked before? The boys seriously need to get out more. “Pause!” I screamed at the boys of One Direction as I bent down to tie my Nikes, the guys all looked at me like I had utterly lost my mind.

            Liam scoffed, “There’s no pausing in hiking!” he replied to my command, as if I were saying the most preposterous thing in the world as he took off running, the other boys taking his lead. Wonderful. Quickly, I tied my shoes as fast as humanly possible not even caring to make sure my laces were double knotted. Somewhere in the back of my mind while I was running I thought of the simple fact that Louis was indeed not tripping every two steps like he had before. Nice, Lou lie to the girl. I mentally slapped myself, I was freaking out that Louis had just lied to me while every word I had said to them had been a lie. I was a huge fan; I didn’t hate them at all. Why did my life suck so badly?

            It was actually pretty easy to catch up with the guys and as I did I secretly with very stealthy ninja like moves hopped onto Liam’s back. “’Ello, lads!” I said in my best British accent which I have to admit was terrible. They all screamed in a very Louis manner and ran away while I was still on Liam’s back.

            “Well, Maddie, you scared them all off!” Liam bantered tracing a finger against my cheek, that was very flirtatious. Maybe I was a witch, that would explain these boys actually FLIRTING with me. Liam looked up to me with those big brown eyes, I swear I’m not the romantic type but right then and there I wished I was and that I actually stood a chance with him. Still letting him stare into my soul I let loose a severely delayed giggle.

            “Well I suppose I did, why don’t we catch up with them? Run, pony, run!” I screamed as Liam chuckled quietly galloping like a horse. Hmm, he had a sense of humor and as trudged along the barely visible path he told me how the rest the “lads” were probably lost by now. Huh, I guess he didn’t quite trust their sense in direction. At least it was a One Direction trail (sorry I just had to do that); they couldn’t possibly get that lost the trail ended at a pier.

            “Hey Liam, I think you might have something going with the guys getting lost,” I stated looking down off the edge of the pier as a cold wet hand grabbed be by the ankle pulling me in. “AHHHHH! THE LADY OF THE LAKE HAS ME, SAVE ME LIAM!!!”

            P. O. V. = Liam Payne

            As me and Maddie looked off the edge of the pier I saw a hand surface from underneath us and grasp Maddie’s ankle, that was the moment where she utterly lost it as well as the moment she was pulled into the murky water calling for me to save her. Without out even thinking I dived in, I know I know, it’s not like me to be so rash but I did it any ways. “I’ll save you Maddie!” but when I hit the water’s surface I was only too aware of the giggling bodies of four boys and as my head bobbed up I saw four extremely cheerful faces and one terrified yet irritated face.

            “Maddie, you should’ve seen the look on your face when my fist clamped your leg!” Lou shared in between fits of laughter. I knew she was most definitely not amused. It was kinda funny how she tried to keep a straight face but couldn’t help but laugh with the rest of us. She looked so at peace yet like something was holding her back. “Don’t fight it, love! Don’t be afraid to-” Louis started until interrupted by Maddie climbing the pier with tears staining her eyes and running off. What just happened? Was it something Lou said? Why had she run off like that?

            “Hey, um lads, I’m going to see if Maddie’s alright.” Niall said slowly climbing his way on top of the pier; he had an odd knowing expression as if he could possibly understand. I started to follow him up until he spoke again, “No, Liam. Just stay.” He said the words without even looking at me, how’d he know?

            “Um okay, Nialler.” I replied softly as Niall ran off into the woods, in the same direction of Maddie. Huh, when did Niall and Maddie become BFFs? I knew I shouldn’t feel bitter with Niall being the one to bring her happiness, but I was. Oh God, I hadn’t realized how far into love I had fell until now. I am so pathetic, I mean Maddie’s obviously not interested . . . although she did jump on my back. Naw, I had only known her for a day, she couldn’t have any feelings.

            “Boo bear! Look what you’ve done now!” Harry said shoving Lou’s head under the lake’s water, I knew Harry really like Maddie too, and another reason it was nearly impossible for me to get her.

            “I’m sorry Haz! I didn’t mean to chase your girly friend out, I’d just meant for a laugh!” Louis jokingly pecking Harry’s face, God sometimes I really wonder if Larry Stylinson is real. They continued to pretend to snog until Zayn told them to get a room, and they finally decided enough was enough. Me and the lads with the exception of Niall then decided to have a major water war; we shoved each other down and forced our competitor’s mouths open so that they were left with large amounts of water throats. An after an hour of our shenanigans we decided to take a breath and sit on the pier.

            “Harry? Do you think Niall and Maddie are done snogging in the woods yet? I wanna peak just to make sure!” Louis said with a mischievous glimmer of excitement in his eyes, oh no, when Lou’s mischievous we ALL pay.

            “Eh, I dunno if that’s a great idea, Boo,” Harry replied although Louis’ same mischievous glint reflected on his own eyes. This was not going to be good . . . when Louis gets that look you can automatically assume there is going to be some major pranking, and when Harry AND Louis are up to something you can guarantee someone is going to the emergency room with food poisoning or a broken nose. It happens every time.

            “Lou, Haz, whatever you’re planning- don’t,” I said hopefully stopping whatever future medical injury that was coming and stepping up to my Daddy Directioner reputation, we all knew Lou and Harold would be causing some mayhem.

            “Aw! No need to be so uptight, I just want a peaky!” Louis whined childishly as he stood up yanking Harry along with him, out of the corner of my eyes I could see Zayn mumbling some rather unique and creative words as he checked out his badly damaged phone. Ignoring Louis for a moment I eyed Zayn curiously.

            “You alright, mate?”

            “No, when Lou pushed me off the pier I hadn’t taken my phone out of my pocket like he and Harry had, it’s completely ruined.” Muttered Zayn under his breath, I hadn’t thought about my mobile, glad I had a waterproof case! Oddly I didn’t hear a peep behind me, slowly, fearing for what I’ll find I swerved on my heel to where my back once faced. There was indeed no Lou or Harry. Great. That had decided to check up on Maddie and Niall’s snogging session.
