Different ∞ z.м. *ON HOLD*

twenty-one

Hello everyone!

Like always I'm a bit late again.

But hopefully I can start updating more frequently, I've just been held up in schoolwork and learning to drive and starting a job. My first semester in school ended today and I was trying to get all my work in so I pass my classes because schools always comes first for me.

Sorry for the short update but I'll try and have another update soon?

Don't be too upset with me if I don't update as soon as I said.

Hopefully this was a good chapter, interesting things are soon to come!

Oh and by the way thank you for 11.9K reads!

Alrighty go ahead and read, sorry for bothering you all! :)

Niall looked up at me with confused eyes.

"How are you going to get us out, there is a least twenty men in this building? I've seen them and they aren't that nice." Niall states sitting up straight, glancing over at me.

"Honestly?" I let out a breath, "I'm not really sure but I have an idea on how we can get out of this place." I answer truthfully, I hadn't thought about escaping much anytime before the present.

"Okay, let me hear it." Niall replies as I lay back on the bed.

"Well, I was thinking--" I stopped myself all of a sudden, causing Niall to look at me; confused.

"What? Is something wrong?" He asks me.

"I can't believe I said all of that out loud!" I curse myself shaking my head not believing I almost told Niall my plan out loud.

"Why?" Niall asks with furrowed eyebrows.

I sigh running my fingers through my hair before sitting back up and looking at Niall. It's time to fess up and tell him everything.

"There are some things I need to explain to you." I say, meeting his gaze.

"Okay?" He states through a question.

"You might think I'm crazy--"

He cuts me off.

"Trust me, we've both been through enough, I think I can handle whatever you have to tell me." He replies grabbing ahold of my hand.

"Okay, well it's a long story, so I guess I'll start with my memory loss..."

I slowly begin to shake my head as I lean on the side of wall of the small room the two teens were in. I thought Laura would've forgotten the fact I can read minds and listen to peoples thoughts, but I guess not...

I guess I've been underestimating the poor girl.

She's a lot smarter than I thought, but also very risky...

She was planning on escaping?

With NIall?

She may believe that she can outsmart Zayn and the rest of us, but she is going to be in for a rude awakening if she acts on her thoughts.

I know Zayn, and I know him well enough to know that he won't let Laura leave him anytime soon.

He may let Niall leave sooner than later, if that.

I'm pretty positive that if Zayn let's Niall leave, he'll leave in a body bag.

I'm not trying to sound rude about but it's the truth.

Zayn truly despises the ground that Horan walks on.  

It's pretty obvious that Zayn is infaturated with Laura and may or may not feel a bit over-protective with her.

Which makes a little bit more understandable in why he dislikes Niall so much.

But does that mean Zayn can abduct Niall and almost kill him in front of Laura?

Probably not.

Breaking my train of thought, Zayn comes into the hall, motioning me to follow him somwhere.

I do because why wouldn't I?

He leads me to his office where he sits in most of the day doing work for the warehouse or stalk Laura on her many social media accounts.

Trust me, I've caught him in the act and yes I know it's a little creepy.

I've tried many times to get it through Zayn's thick skull that he needs to tone down his obsession a little bit, but on most occasions he ends saying he's not obsessed or threatens to send me back to Zarron. Man have I heard that one enough times, I think to myself.

Zayn sits down in his chair and motions for me to sit in the one across from him.

I relunctantly do, sure he's my best mate but I do not entirely enjoy spending my time in the room with him where everything is strictly serious buisness and it's also the place where Zayn shows the least amount of mercy.

I feel chills just thinking about all the lifeless bodies that I've seen carried out of this very room, and who knows? Just because I'm his friend does not mean I won't be next in line for death. Lucky for Zayn. he's the only one around here who knows how to kill our kind.

"So? What were they talking/thinking about?" Zayn asks as I let out a low sigh.

About ten minutes ago, he ordered me to go eavesdropping on both Laura and Niall, nervous as to what could be going on in their minds.

Well he was worried for a good reason, they were planning on escaping.

I pitied the two children, as much as I would rather keep their information to myself, I knew I'd have to tell Zayn the truth.

As much as I hated to admit it, Zayn made me nervous. You never know what he's going to do next and to whom.

With Zayn and being apart of his buisness, you either do whatever he asks of you or perish.

I look over at Zayn before nodding, "Laura's planning to escape with Niall." I finally admit cooly.

Shit. I hear Zayn mutter in his head, sure he's my 'boss' but that doesn't stop me from listening to his thoughts.

I look at Zayn facial expression and I notice that his jaw is clenched and his hands are balled into fists as they lay ontop of his desk, his entire body was tense.

This was not good.

"Excuse me, Liam, I think I'm going to have to seperate those two after all." Zayn says calmly standing up and slowly making his way out of his office but before doing so, he lowly said, "thank you Liam for you services."

I let out a long breath after I knew he was gone, feeling sorry for both Niall and Laura.

They have no idea what's coming to them.
