Chp.12

Skyler's POV

After we had brunch, which was delicious by the way, we went in the mall. Zayn was way too excited about this shopping trip.... Awkward.... And Scarlett was still acting a little weird but not as much anymore.

The first store we went to was Delia's, the guys said we had to go there because it was 1D inspired at the moment. It actually was!

They had future mrs. Payne shirts and future Mrs. Horan/Styles/Tomlinson/Malik and tees with their picture on them. They also had plaid shirts, blue blazers, coats, red polo's, sweaters, varsity jackets, red skinny jeans and shirts with stripes. There were a million tee shirts, and the guys made us try every single one of them.

I think we tried on the whole store actually... when it was time to pay I felt overly guilty and told them that I didn't want anything. The guys being the guys pretended that I didn't existed, grabbed everything that looked cute on me and paid for it, while I complained.

By the end of our shopping trip I had eight Delia's bags, 7 Forever 21 bags, 5 Hollister bags, 5 American Eagle bags, 9 Jack& Wille bags and about 30 more bags of stores I couldn't really remember. Kendall and Scarlett had about as many bags as I did. The guys said we had to buy a lot because we didn't have any... We bought millions of toms, combat boots and converse and heels. We bought accessories, flat irons and curling irons, hair products, body products, boots, flats, bikinis, fancy dresses, summer dresses, beanies, hats, shades, make up, bags, books, a MacBook & iPhone & iPod & Camera for each of us. They even bought like a million cases. We also bought an iHome for each of us! And the guys bought me leotards so I could practice gymnastics! Turns out there is a gymnastics gym by the pool in the building where the guys flat is.

We had so many bags we had to get the body guard's to help us. When we were done putting the millions of bags in the car we all piled in. Scarlett was totally cool during the whole sopping trip, but she was back to frowning and being bitchy again. Lord help us.

We sat like we had on our way here, but the ride back was silent. We were all exhausted.

I rested my head on Liam's lap and put my feet on Zayn's lap. Liam smiled at me and strted to play with my hair. Zayn also smiled at me and used my feet as drums. He was just randomly making up a beat. Me and Zayn were really close.

He was also like my big brother, kind of like Lou. Him, Lou and Liam were the people who I trusted the most. Well them and my sister's. I trust Niall and harry, but I haven't gotten to know them as much because they are always with Scar and Kendall. They make adorable couples though.

I slowly drifted to sleep thinking about how amazing my life is now...

LIAM'S POV

Everyone was asleep except me and Zayn. There was a huge car crash so we were stuck here in the car for god knows how long. It's already lnine o'clock and I'm starving.

"How long do you think we'll be here, mate?" Zayn asked me.

"I really don't know, but I'm getting hungry" I answered.

He looked down at Skyler and sighed.

"It really amazes me how strong she is. I mean she's been through so much... and she's so perfect, but I don't think she knows or well realizes it. Liam you might be my best mate but if you hurt her I will kill you. I don't know why but I love skyler so damn much. She's like a little sister to me, and I feel like I need to be there for her and protect her. I can tell that Lou feels the same way. And obviously you do too, but well you are, ermm in love with her. And it's obvious she is in love with you too.... I'm just saying that we really need to find how to make these three girls happy again. Li, I think we are doing a pretty good job till now... but we have to make it better" he said still looking down at her.
