Melissa on the side :D
"Melissa!"
"What?" I asked zoning back in. "I asked you what you wanted to drink," Veronica exasperated, sounding quite annoyed .
"Oh, um, can I get a medium vanilla coffee please?" The guy behind the cash register nods.
"Could I get anything else for you two ladies?" I shake my head and begin to search through my purse for money.
"How much will that be?" I ask politely.
"That'll be five euros." He replies and smiles my way. I hand him the correct amount and thank him.
As Veronica and I head towards a table, I begin to feel uncomfortable. The café is silent and not many people are about as I look around. There's a few people here and there minding their own business and nothing really seems out of place.
"So Zayn is coming over to pick me up tomorrow to go to the movies and I was wondering if you wanted to go?" Veronica asked me, taking a sip of her coffee.
I pondered the idea. I wasn't very fond of going with Zayn, though I could use the time to ask him about the others. I hadn't heard anything and it made me wonder what became of them.
"Sure I'll go." I smiled. "Can I bring Niall with me?" I asked. If I was going to go, I wasn't going as the third wheel.
"Of course you can!" she replied happily. "Okay so tomorrow at six."
"Tomorrow at six." I nodded.
We talked for a while more and then got up, taking our coffees with us and leaving. We were getting inside the car when I remembered that I left my phone on the table.
"Shit," I said " I'll be right back Veronica, I forgot my phone on the table. Don't do anything stupid please." I warned her before making my way back into the café.

I watched as Melissa came back inside of the coffee shop looking for her phone on the table. It was too late for her because I had picked it up as soon as she left.
She went up to the cashier asking him something, probably about her phone. The cashier just shook his head 'no' furrowing his eyebrows. I was close enough to hear what he was saying.
"I'm sorry Miss but I haven't seen a phone." "Okay, well thanks anyways." she said her eyebrows furrowed, deep in thought. Oh, her voice, how I missed it.
She turned back slightly, as if catching a glimpse of something. I backed up a little, sure that she wouldn't see me from here.
She pondered a little before making an exit and getting back in her car.
I smirked to myself, now realizing that I had a resource. Luckily, she didn't have a passcode on it or the phone wouldn't be of any use.
I'm sure I could get some type of information about the boys from this little device. I'm sure of it.
[Melissa's Pov]
As I went inside of the coffee shop, I felt the same odd feeling that I received the first time I entered. I made my way back to where Veronica and I sat to retrieve my phone.
When I got there the table was empty. Who could have taken it?
I went up to the cashier. "Um, excuse me..." He turned around with a smile and I looked at his name tag, "Luke."
"Yes? How can I help you?" He responded politely. "Have you seen a phone around here perhaps on one of those tables?" I asked pointing to the section we had seated.
Luke shook his head 'no' furrowing his eyebrows. "I'm sorry Miss but I haven't seen a phone." he replied. "Okay, well thanks anyways." I said my eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
I had so many questions. Who could have taken it? Why? Where is it? Did one of the workers pick it up?
Just then I caught a glimpse of something. I had a very bad feeling about it. I feel like I know who I just saw. But it can't be. I thought he was dead. Isn't he? I turned back around completely scared as to who it could have been.
I made my way back to the car, still in deep thought.
"Hey did you find your phone?" Veronica asked curious.
"No, it was gone once I got to the table." I said
"Oh, well don't worry we'll get you a new one." she said without a care in the world.
I backed out of the parking space and drove off. "Yeah, but Melissa, remember the information I had on there?" She furrows her eyebrows and then realizes.
"Oh my god Melissa." She said covering her mouth.
"The good thing is I could only access it with a pass code even though the phone itself didn't have one. And that's not all." I told her. "I felt like we were being watched. It made me have a feeling of discomfort. Didn't you feel it?" I asked her.
"Yes, but I thought it was just me." she said her eyes full of fear now.
"Veronica there's someone out there to get us." I said.
"Let's think about this some other time okay? Look we're at the university and I really don't want to have nightmares about this." she said slightly scared.
"Okay." I'll have to tell her about who I thought I saw another time.
We had arrived at the University of London, making our way to classes. "Well I'll see you later Veronica." I waved. "Later love." I cringed at the name she just gave me.
She instantly remembered and apologized. "Oh, I'm so sorry I forgot." She says covering her mouth.
"It's okay." I told her reassuringly. "Well we better get to classes if we don't want to be late." I told her with a smile. "Alright see you later." She said waving. "See ya."
I walked into my law enforcement class. I loved law and photography but I just can't seem to choose one.
I sat down in my seat getting ready for the class to start. Somebody then tapped my shoulder. "Is this seat taken?"
I looked up with a smile to see who it was and to answer their question with a 'no'.
But when I looked up, the smile I wore dropped and my heart nearly stopped.
