Uncovered

Chapter 4

We decide on going to a little cafe just off the beach for lunch. The place is packed and we have to wait ten minutes until we are seated. I start going through the menu and the food makes my mouth water, I decide on going for a chicken wrap with chips and order a water.

The waitress doesn't take long to return with my water and the drinks for the others. Shai and I start talking to pass some time till our food is ready and the guys start talking about a basketball game coming up. Ten minutes later our food arrives and it smells and looks amazing.

"Harry, Zayn" Niall yells and I look over to who he is yelling at and see two guys that are in board shorts and there arms and torsos are covered in tattoos just like Louis and Liam.

"What are you doing here" Liam says giving them both a hand shake. 

"We were just at the beach catching a few waves and decided to get something to eat" one of the guys says who has hazel eyes and brown, black hair. The five guys continue to talk and Shai joins in a bit but I just keep to myself. I begin to look around café, seeing nearly every seat filled, I look over to the entrance and see a familiar figure, I squint my eyes so that I may see them better and try blinking my eyes but after that they just disappear. I try looking around for them seeing if they moved from their position, but they are no where

Oh fuck no. This can't be happening, my breathing begins to get heavier and my hands become clammy. Fuck no, not now. I try fanning myself but it doesn't help at all.

"Whats wrong" Shai whispers as she leans across the table "You look a bit agitated."

"Nah I'm fine, umm, where's the toilets at?" I ask trying to get to a less populated place.

"Just over there" She points to the back of the cafe. "Do you want me to come you look like you've seen a ghost."

"I'm ok" I wave her off and walk quickly to the toilet, weaving through people as I do so.

I rush into the toilets and instantly go over to the sink a splash water over my face to cool myself down, I try to calm down my breathing, by breathing in and out slowly to get it steady again. It' like my heart has a spasm and all the air is taken out of my lungs, it's bloody weird. After I'm back to normal, well almost, I freshen up a bit and make it look like I wasn't distraught at all. I walk out of the bathroom but as I do I feel light headed and my vision goes blurry. I stumble a bit and see a figure in front of me but before I can see who it is my vision goes blank.....

My eyes flutter open slowly and I feel someone dabbing something wet on my forehead. As my vision begins to get clearer I can sort of make out the person in front of me but it wasn't who I was expecting to see. It's that guy that was talking to Shai and the others. Once he notices that my eyes are open he pulls away leaving me slumped on the bathroom counter, by back against the glass.

"Are you alright" he asks concern laced through his voice.

"Uh, yeah" I say sounding confused with what is coming out of my mouth, my voice sounding creaky and feeling as dry as a bloody desert. 

"I got a bit scared there for a second, I thought you weren't going to come conscious again." He says.

"What happened?" I ask, all I remember is seeing figure than ending up here in the bathroom.

"Well, I think you fainted. You were out for like three minutes." He says and I just nod. Sometimes after, whatever just happened before, I end up fainting, but only some times.

"What's your name." He asks as he chucks a paper towel in the bin.

"Mackenzie but you can just call me Kenzie"

"Beautiful name for a beautiful girl, my names Harry" he says and even though what he says is cliché I still blush at the compliment "So how come I never seen you around here before."

"I just moved here yesterday from Denver." I say pushing my hair out of my face. Just as he is about to say something Shai comes crashing through the toilet door and once she sees me she looks relieved.

"Oh God, I thought you ran away on me." She says wiping her forehead before she looks over to Harry. "What are you doing in the girls toilets?" She asks looking a him weirdly.

"Kenzie fainted and I was going to take her in the guys toilet but the girls were a lot cleaner."

"What the Fuck, you fainted." She say loudly. "Are you alright." She walks over to me and starts feeling my temperature. "Do you need to go to the doctors, I could take you there as I go to work, shit I got work." She speaks a hundred miles per hour.

"Why don't I take care of her and you go to work." Harry says and Shai looks at him like he is crazy.

"You hardly know her." She says matter of fact.

"Same goes for you." He raises his eyebrow at her, being pretty right also but really I don't need anyone looking after me.

"Alright." She sighs. "What do you think Kenzie?" She asks looking at me.

"Sounds fine." I shrug my shoulders and jump down from the counter onto the ground. My head getting a bit dizzy as I do so but just try and get rid of it by not worrying

"Alright then, all sorted. Lets get out of this shitty toilet then" She says and we all walk out of the toilet and Shai walks ahead sating goodbye and leaving Harry and I together.

"Do you need to go to the doctors?"

"No fucking way." I say shaking my head, I hate doctors, nurses, anything to do with hospitals." Maybe we can  get going" I say looking at him

"Maybe we could..um.. you know get something to eat, I'm pretty starved." he stutters rubbing his neck, even though the tattoos he has makes him look tough he really is kind of cute.

"Sure sounds good I didn't get to have lunch."

"Alright where to then."

"You choose because I don't know a single place around here."

"I know this really good place that has the best food ever" he says excitedly.

"Perfect"

We go to the parking lot and stop at a black range rover Harry unlocks it and opens the passenger door for me.

"Thank you" he smiles and shuts the door and quickly runs around the front of the car and hopes into the drivers seat. He turns the ignition and the car comes to life. He quickly pulls out of the parking lot and seconds later we are on the road.
