Cold Feet

Chapter Four

Iris' POV:

Detention sucks.

It's held in an ancient room that smells like horse shit. I'm not even exaggerating, it's awful. Thank God Jess is with me other wise I would've done shot myself by now.

Now you're probably wondering why Jess and I are in here in the first place. Well I can assure that it was all Niall Horan's doing. The little shit decided that mixing the wrong chemicals together on purpose was a good idea and of course, Jess and I were his lab partners. Anyways, after the damn thing blew up, Mrs. Holin sent us to the office without even an explanation.

So Jess, Horan, and I were stuck here until five thirty, it only being four o'clock.

Groaning, I slammed my head unto the desk I was sitting at. "This is fucking TORTURE!" I screamed, groaning once again.

"Oi, could you keep it down! Some of us don't want Mr. Golly to walk in!" Niall yelled. That little-

"Shut the hell up Horan! It's your damn fault we're all stuck in here!" Jess yelled, glaring at him. Niall just rolled his eyes, turning back around.

"Go fuck Harry or something," He mumbled after about thirty seconds.

The hell?

"Oh grow up you shit hole," she snapped back. I didn't miss the slight blush on her cheeks though.

"I bet you already have, considering you're the biggest slut in the grade," Niall said, turning around and facing Jess. He had a smirk on his face.

Did he just?

Jess was about to say something back, but I cut her off.

"Just ignore the prick, he's not worth it," After I said that Niall turned slightly, smirking at me this time.

"Sweets, you couldn't ignore me if you tried."

Choosing to ignore Niall, I faced Jess, "Why the hell was Ari in such a hurry after school today?" I asked, Ari usually stayed at the school for at least thirty minutes after the bell rang, so that's why it seemed unusual.

"I don't know, maybe she felt sick? Or maybe her house was bombed and now there are mAFIAS AFTER HER AND-"

"Jess, calm down. Are the horse shit fumes getting to your head?" I asked, genuinely concerned. I heard Niall laugh slightly.

Right when Jess was about to speak, the door opened and Mr. Golly walked in.

"Alright since you and I both know none of you twits want to be here, and I don't want to stay here with y'all, you can leave. But, if this ever happens again, I can't guarantee that you won't be suspended. Is that clear?" He spoke firmly. We all nodded. Mr. Golly pointed towards the door and we all made our way out the door.

Making my way over to my locker, with Jess not far behind, Niall spoke up, "I know where Ari is."

"What?" Jess and I asked simultaneously.

"I heard you ask Jess why Ari was in such a hurry. I can show you if you want," he was wearing his signature smirk on his face.

I shrugged, though it didn't seem that important to me anyways.

After Jess nodded her head, Niall started walking, both of us following closely behind.

He lead us down the stair and passed the gym, the basketball boys practicing. A nice view if I'm being completely honest. Finally reaching the end of the hallway, Niall lead us into the boy's locker room.

Why in the world are we in here?

He took us all the way to the last row of lockers, and when I turned the corner, I saw something I wish I hadn't.

Luke had Ari pinned up against the lockers, basically shoving his tongue down her throat. It seemed like Ari didn't mind, since I spotted her hand trailing up the front of his shirt. The two were completely oblivious to us standing there.

That was, until Niall slammed his hand against one of the lockers.

Luke instantly pulled off of Ari, whipping around with his eyes wide. After realizing who it was, they turned into a death glare.

"Niall what the hell are you doing here?!"

Niall chuckled, leaning up against the lockers, "I'm sorry, did I interrupt something?" He asked innocently.

Luke's glare hardened. He walked up to Niall and shoved him off the locker, knocking Niall on the ground. Niall didn't even seem phased. He instantly shot back up and pointed to Ari, his eyes on Jess and I.

"There she is. Glad I could help you find her," he stated, still smirking.

I turned my gaze back over to Ari. She looked like a deer caught in headlights.

"Uhh... I've got to go, got tons of homework to do," she said, making a move to leave. Unfortunately for her, Jess grabbed her by her forearm and yanked her back.

"Didn't seem like you were that worried about your homework considering what we just walked in one," Jess said, eyebrow raised.

Ari rolled her eyes, "Guys you're acting like you've never seen people kiss before, And that's all it was, kissing. We were just having shameless fun, nothing more," she said, sighing.

"What?" I heard Luke say. Turning around, I saw Luke staring at Ari with his eyebrows furrowed. After a few seconds, Luke just shook his head and exited the locker room.

Niall coughed, "Guess it wasn't just 'shameless fun' for him."
