Mae POV ...
"OI, wake up, what's up your bum!" I shouted at Anna while shaking her violently. It was 8:30 and it took 20 minutes to cycle to the fields, so we had to move fast. I was already dressed and ready to go, in my ripped shorts, converse, and grey muscle tee. I had my hair up in a bun again but it was even messier than yesterday, and I had only woken up 10 minutes ago myself. We'd been meeting with the boys for a few days now - almost 3. It was nice to spend some time with people other than each other. I think Anna had met Liam, Zayns band mate from One Direction. She couldn't shut up about him. 'He's so nice, and so handsome, and I really like him but I'm just not sure whether he's still with Dannielle' she'd always fret. I didn't know whether Zayn had a girlfriend or not, but I didn't really care. I wasn't even sure that he even liked me more than a friend.
"Mumphg," she grumbled loudly. She better get up or we won't get there in time!
"What time is it?" she questioned, putting her hands over her eyes, since I had now picked up the lamp on her bedside and shone it on her face. I swear to God.
"IT'S 8:30 YOU PIECE OF -" She quickly shot up (after fumbling with the covers a bit stupidly) and ran in to the kitchen. I'd made her toast with Vegemite and butter, but it'd gone cold since it took her so long to actually get up, and out of bed. She flung some toast in to her mouth and darted for the bedroom. I waited on the small couch for her to get changed still trying to fathom what had just happened. It only took her two minutes.
"How do I look?" she questioned while brushing her hair frantically. Anna was wearing a stripe-y top, with her blue jeans and boots. She'd tied her hair back in to the same messy bun as I, although again mine was slightly messier - I couldn't even tell whether it was still tied up or not.
"Let's go," I panted quickly grabbing my large, round rose gold earring and putting them on. We literally ran down the street to find our bicycles, which were thankfully still there even though we didn't chain them up (Wtf? I know. We're a bit stupid when it comes to that sort of stuff), swinging our legs over the top and pedaling as fast as we could to the fields.We were almost there now, and I could see the tips of the hedge around the field - we just had to cross this road.
"Sh*t what's the time," I squealed to Anna. She looked at her watch.
"It's 9:00," she screamed. Screw it. We crossed the road almost immediately, almost being hit by another cyclist but luckily avoiding the on coming cars. I stuck my finger up at the guy, giving him a dirty even though he didn't deserve it. We opened the rusty gates that let to the car park and cycled as fast as we could down to the fields. The cars from yesterday had gone, and one lonesome vehicle sat there. It was an Audi, and I knew it was theirs. We pretty much threw our bicycles on the dirt and bolted to our two fields. I waved bye to Anna and continued in to the maze of raspberries through to the open field that hosted the pears.
Zayn POV ....
It was 9:10, and she still wasn't here. I was stressing out a bit to be honest, because I was really anticipating being with her again. I saw a small figure running in the distance towards me, assuming that it'd be her. I ran towards the person, my baggy jeans falling slightly as I did so. I hated the way they did that, but it was stylish so I guess I'd put up with it for now.
Mae came slowly in to view, panting and red in the face. Did she just run the whole field?
"Hey there, Zayn," she breathed out heavily, putting her hand on her knees and leaning on them. She was only wearing something really simple, but it looked great on her. It was a nice break from all of that glitzy, tight, short short stuff Perrie wore all the time. Not that it was bad, it's just that enough is enough, you know?
