Harry’s p.o.v                 

She smiled her gorgeous smile that made her eyes light up. We were in some sort of field. I was chasing her and she was running away from me. No matter how I hard I ran I couldn’t catch up to her. The entire time she was incessantly giggling. Every now and then she’d look over her shoulder at me and just when I thought she’d stop running, she went faster. Surely she should’ve been tired by now… Right?? She stopped where she was and turned around. Her hair did this amazing flip and it felt like it was in slow motion. Weird.  I stopped in front of her and she stepped closer to me. We were so close that if either of us moved an inch inwards, our noses would be touching.

“Harry. Wake up. Wake up Harry.”

“Wot?”

“Open your eyes Harry. Get up.” Suddenly the scene changed. We were no longer in an open field. We were in… Liam's bedroom and instead of Ari standing there Liam was… with a cup of water.

“GET UP HARRY!!! WE’RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!!” Liam was standing beside me with a cup of water threatening to poor it on me. His voice sounded panicky.

“I’m up!!! I’m up!! I thought you said you’d set an alarm!!”

“I thought you would.”

“What’s the time?” I asked rubbing eyes, trying to wake myself up, not that I wanted to be awake.

“Its ten to nine.”

“SHIT!” I stood up quickly, too quickly. Everything started spinning. I blinked a few times and this stopped the room spinning.

Within fifteen minutes we were both standing in the living room, bags slung over one shoulder.

“Shit, shit, shit, shit, five after nine. Shit shit shit. I can’t be late.”

“I hate to burst your bubble but you already are.”

“Shit shit shit shit.”

“CALM DOWN MATE!” I shouted.

“How can I calm down? We’re late for school and you know what that means. A DENTENTION. I CAN’T GET A DETENTION OR I’LL GET KICKED OFF THE RUGBY TEAM!!” He screamed.

“Alright, deep breaths man. Call your mum and explain what happened. I’m sure she’ll understand.”

“Yeah, you’re right. Sorry for freaking out. It’s just this doesn’t usually happen to me so-”

“I know.” I cut him off. That’s the thing that sucked about my school, they were so strict! It’s like, one detention or suspension and if you’re on a team, well you sure as hell aren’t anymore.

“You should probably call your mum as well.”

“Orrr, I could just get that detention. Keep up my bad boy rep.” That made him smile.

“Just go call your mum.”

“Yes sir!” I joked. I pulled out my phone and dialled mums number. Yeah, she was gonna be pissed. This was the third time I’d been late this week and it’s only Thursday. Whoops.

Zayn's p.o.v

In Chemistry I sat with Ari and Louis. Usually Harry was here as well which made it less awkward but he wasn’t here. I noticed that Louis spent pretty much the entire lesson staring at Eleanor. He’d stare at her, she’d look at him, they would hold eye contact for a moment then both look down at their books. They just kept doing this the entire lesson. Something was definitely going on there. While that was going on, Ari just stared at the door for the entire lesson and paid no attention to the teacher whatsoever but when the teacher asked her a question she’d answer it correctly every time. Even the stuff we learnt in class today and when he called on me to answer and I didn’t know the answer she scrawled it down in her book for me. Hello exam buddy. During the lesson I also noticed that Liam wasn’t here, which was weird cause he’s ALWAYS in class. Wait… wasn’t Harry staying at Liam’s place last night? Yeah, that would explain it. They probably overslept. I turned my attention back to the teacher who was at the front of the classroom madly scribbling something down on the board.
