                              Prologue

He was standing over her sloppily, drunk as usual. She was crying, begging, pleading, but as usual, she got no where. "You're a whore, you don't deserve to live, bitch."

She looked over to me, hopelessly, but still, she somehow flashed me that beautiful smile of her's. "I love you, Jamie. Everything is going to be okay." she mouthed. I looked down at her lower body, not understanding why she just said that. There's a knife stuck in her stomach. I let out a loud gasp as tears started rolling down my face. "You bastard!" I quickly got up from my knees and pushed him off from on top of her. Tears running down my face faster than ever.

"Mom! Mommy wake up please. Mom I need you! I love you so much. You can't leave me here with him mom. Come on, please!" I shouted and shook her, but her lifeless body just laid there. My everything was gone. The one I lived for is gone. My mom is gone. He killed her.

*************************

I woke up to the agonizing sound of my alarm clock ringing. Pulling myself out of my bed, I already felt as setting my alarm for school today was a mistake, realizing that my mom had only just been killed two days ago. Today is the first day back to school from Christmas break. Knowing that I am in no shape to go back to school regarding my mother's death, I need to get out of this house. I locked myself in my room since her death, turned my phone off, ate nothing, and shut everything outside of my world out. I'm not ready to deal with these pathetic excuses of human beings. Although, the one person I actually want to see is my best friend, Zoe, considering the fact that I have no family. But Zoe's family knows me, I think of them as a second "family." Though only she knows what I go through.

Every morning I have to wake up at 5:00 a.m. and leave at 6:45 sharp so I have just enough time to shower, get ready and leave to start walking to school before he wakes up.

Luckily, I got finished just in time. I'm currently staying in Sacramento, California. My mom and I have to move with him a lot. We last lived in New York, I honestly miss it there, but California is nice, too.

While I was thinking of all of this, I hadn't even been paying attention to where I was going until I looked up and bumped into someone. I fell on my back and the person fell on top of me. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to. I wasn't paying attention." I managed saying as I quickly got up from under the person and stood up. When he stoop up I seen the most beautiful guy I've ever since. He has beautiful brown eyes  with the prettiest skin complexion and he had his hair in the sexiest quiff. His jawline was strong with a bit of a beard. I stood there in complete awe. Looking in his eyes I just got lost. Nothing else seemed to matter. "Hello." He said as he waved his hand in front of my face. "Oh, uh, yeah? Sorry, I got lost for a moment. What was that you were saying?" he smirked, obviously knowing what I meant when I said I got lost for a moment. "I said it's okay. My name is Zayn, and you are?" he asked with the prettiest, warmest smile on his face. "Jamie. My name is Jamie." I replied. "Pretty name for a pretty girl." Zayn laughed. "Oh come on. You've got to be kidding me. That is the corniest pick up line ever, but thank you. You don't look so bad yourself." We both laughed in agreement.

He looked at his watch proceeded, "Crap, I'm gonna be late. Can I uh, can I have your number? So maybe we can pick this up sometime?"

"I don't think that would be a good idea. I'm sorry. I have to go." I quickly said and practically ran off. "See you again, beautiful." I heard him say faintly because of how far away I already was, and now he is stuck in my head. He called me beautiful.

I got to school only 3 minutes before the bell for 1st period rang. I ran down the long hallway to Art. Grabbing a seat next to Zoe, I hugged her so tight. She's like my sister, and only she understands what I'm going through.

"Hey girl! Oh my gosh Jamie. Don't ever do that again! Don't ever turn off your phone okay? I was worried sick about you." she continued saying as she hugged me back. "Are you okay?"

"I'll tell you later."

"Good morning class. Today we have a student who has switched his schedule, but I'm pretty sure most of you know him. Zayn Malik." Mrs. Harrison introduced him to everyone.

As soon as she said his name my head shot up. "Oh no." I said under my breath. We made eye contact and I looked down immediately.

"Please don't sit by me. Please don't sit by me." I said to myself in my head.

"Told you I would see you again, beautiful."
