Heartless

Chapter 30

Zayn's POV

As we enter the frat house, all eyes went to Carissa. Most of the eyes were from guys, and I can't help but laugh when their girlfriends do their attempt to snap them out of their trance.

Carissa does something that causes the guys to frown. She wraps her arms around my waist and spins me so I'm facing her. Her lips immediately lock onto mine, and I instinctively kiss back. When she pulls away, I look back at the guys to see frowns on their faces.

I don't even feel angry at all, because I know that Carissa is mine, and only mine.

Everyone goes back to whatever they're doing, and a familiar face walks up to us.

"Jay!" Liam greets him, pulling him in for a quick hug.

Carissa's POV

I watch as Liam and this guy named 'Jay' talk. When Jay locks eyes with me he smiles.

"And what is your name pretty thing?" He says sweetly, extending his hand out.

"Carissa," I introduce myself, shaking his hand before pulling away. "Zayn's girlfriend."

"You're a lucky one man," Jay looks over at Zayn before back at me.

"Thanks," Zayn says, leaning into me a bit. I take the time to take a closer inspection of Jay.

He was about the same height as Liam, tall, and fit. His attire consisted of a black flannel, blue skinnies, and black Converse shoes. Jay's hair was a dark brown, tossed, but it suited him. His skin was light, but at the same time, golden. He looked like your everyday frat boy.

"Well enough chitchat," Jay claps his hands together. "Let's party!"

We all laugh at his cheeriness and walk off into different directions. Zayn on the other hand, wanted to be by my side.

"Zayn," I giggle. "It's okay, go hang you with your friends."

"Come with me?" He looks at me with a pout. I'm my head I'm screaming, pulling at my hair because he's so darn cute, but on the outside, I nod. His hand laces through mine before guiding me towards the back of the house.

People grow less and less until we reach the backyard. People are sitting outside, having beers, and talking casually. This is definitely a change of atmosphere.

Zayn continues to lead me until we see Liam, having a beer as he talks to Jay. I almost feel bad that were kind of intruding their conversation, until Jay turns to see us with a smile appearing on his face.

"Hey Carissa, Zayn," he says as we take a seat on some plastic chairs.

I half listen into Zayn and Jay talking as I scan around the yard. Just as I'm about to turn back to Zayn, I see a girl in a really short dress walk up to us.

Her hair is dip-dyed with the color red, and the dress she's wearing is red as well. The ends of her 'dress' reaches at the end of her a.ss, which is half showing at the moment.

"Hey Jay," she greets Jay shortly.

"Hey Alice," Jay says, slight confusion in his voice.

"You're cute," Alice suddenly says. I don't realize it at first, but she's referring to Zayn.

"Thanks," Zayn says coldly, not bothering to look at her as he goes back to talking to Jay.

"Why don't you want to talk to me?" She asks in a needy--and might I say screechy--voice.

Zayn looks at her, raising an eyebrow before turning to face me. I shrug, honestly not caring if she tries to flirt with him because he's mine, all mine.
