"Come on, Annabelle, are you letting Lily go alone with bad boys?" Liam asks me with humor in his voice. Everyone in the room laughs besides me.

"Lily isn't coming too." I say strictly, but begin to doubt in my words.

"Now that's not gonna happen," Liam says with smile and hugges Lily. "Lily is coming on the party and if something happens to her, it'll be your fault." He waves a finger to me and Louis chuckles. I stare at Liam, then at Lily. If really something hapens to her, then what should I do?

"Shit!" I curse loudly and cover my mouth with a hand. Then everyone laughs again.

"So you're coming." Louis says and I nod a bit.

"Come on, please." Lily begs me. She asked me for so many times that I can say they really want me there.

"Okay." I sigh and smile.

"Let's go change." Lily says and reaches out her hand for me. I get up lazily, grab her hand and go upstairs.

"What should I wear?" I ask her after realizing that I don't have anything to wear on party.

"Take this," She says and throws a knee-length, black, tight dress at me. "and this for top." and throws a shirt, which is too short to hide waist. I don't rebut her and put on the clothes she gave me, then grease a powder.

"I'm ready." I say after putting on the shoes. When lily is ready too, we go down.

"You look stunning." Liam says to us.

"That's right." Louis addes. We thank to them and go out.

"Oh, No! Motorbikes again? Uhm... I'll go by bus." I ask them but they don't agree with me.

"Why by bus when we can take you?" Liam asks me and raises his eyebrows. I swallow and stare at the bike, I don't want to sit on this 'machine of the hell' again.

"Let's go." Louis says with laugh. He hoods me a helmet and sits on a motorbike. "Wrap your hands around me tightly, not to fall, okay?"

"Okay, but ride slowly."

"Okay, don't be afraid." He chuckles. I sit behind him, wrap my hands around him and he starts a machine.

...

It's been a long time on Liam's birthday party. At the begining Lily was with me, but then she dissapeared. I looked for her on the first floor, but she wasn't there. I sigh and rest my back against the wall. The Who is replaced with Pink Floyd by someone on the record-player. I shut my eyes for a second and after opening them, I see dark black hair a few meters away from me. Zayn is holding a ciggarette in one hand and a cup of drink in another, following a beat with his head.

"Hi." I wince suddenly and look at the guy standing next to me, who is taller than me with three heads.

"Hi." I say shyly.

"I'm Jace, you?"

"Annabelle."

"Nice name." He smiles warmly.

"Thank you, yours too." I got a bit shy and tilt my head down.

"You have a beautiful blonde hair," I feel his touch on my hair that makes me shiver. Accidently I look at Zayn who was staring at me and then goes. "and beautiful blue eyes." He touches my chin to raise my head up. I touch his hand to get it off of me but he grabs mine.

"How old are you?"

"I'm seventeen. I was looking for my cousin.. you know? She was with Liam, haven't you seen her?"

"Yes, I have. They were in the yard." He says and shows me a glass door, with darkness behind it.

"Hm.. Okay." I don't love walking through the darkness. I get my hand free from Jace's grip but feel his hand on mine again.

"I'll come with you, there's dark." He smiles at me friendly and I smile at his act.

"Thank you." I say and we go forward.

"Lily!" I scream as we are out. "Lily, where are you?" I go forward through the darkness. "Lily!" I scream again, angry with her and turn to Jace.

"Why isn't she answer..." I can't finish the sentence when he grabs my arms and throws me against the wall. "What's going on?" I say confused and frightened as hell. Instead of answering, he wraps his hands around my waist, takes me up in air and starts kissing me in the neck. Now I know what's going on. I get muted by shock and fear. I'm looking into darkness, waiting for someone to come and save me, but nobody's coming. I'm trying my best to say anything but can't, then suddenly I scream.

"Shut up, bitch!" Jace bawls and presses his body more and more to mine.

"Help!" I moan once again. I'm trying to get out from his grib but he's too strong. Suddenly someone gets him rid of me, throws on the ground and kicks him, then turns to me and looks into my eyes. I can pick out this brown eyes from the thousands of eyes.

Zayn. It's Zayn.

He got amazed by seeing me here. He wasn't expecting me. Probably if he knew it was me, he wouldn't save me. If this was not Zayn, I'd thank him but first he has to say sorry to me for what he has done to me on the race.

I go from that place without saying a word to him. I'm still in shock and need some fresh air to breathe, so sit outside, on the bench. I wipe the tears and close eyes. Air gots stuffy, when somebody sits next to me. I look at him scared and see Zayn, sitting millimetres away from me. I look at his bloodshot eyes. The smell, the smell of him is wonderful, with cigarette, scent and other smells in it, I can't pick out. 

Zayn's looking into my eyes with fright and worry in his. Then, immediately he breaks eye contact with me and looks away. We are quiet and I'm sitting here, shaking. I don't know which fact causes shivers into me, the fact that happened minutes ago, or the one, that Zayn's staring at me like, he's seeing a nightmare into my eyes, from which he's trying to escape. 

"Don't you know that you mustn't trust bad boys?" He asks me with laugh and looks at me. He has bloodshot eyes, he might had drank a lot. I laugh at his words nervously, look up at the sky, sigh and shake my head.

"Your friend is inside." He says and I look at him again.

"Okay."

"Aren't you coming in?"

"No." I answer shortly. I want him to leave me alone. I don't wanna go back to the party, I want to be at home, in silence.

"Can you say to Lily that I went home, and don't be nervous?" I say and stand up. I'm afraid of going alone but I don't want to stay either.

"Are you going to go alone this late?" He laughs.

'Yes, I don't want Lily not have fun because of me."

"Okay, I'll tell her." He answers me and stands up.

I sigh and follow the path to the gate. Then go out and head down the way I came with here. I hope nothing else bad happens to me today.
