Lies, Cries and Trying Times

Cliché

A/N: I’m not doing a chapter for the whole school week ‘cause that’s like real boring and I just thought ‘Why not just skip to something exciting’ not that there anything exciting in this chappie… no… not at all.

Chapter 5: Cliche

~Shae's Pov~

(Saturday)

My mum is coming back tomorrow afternoon and I couldn’t wait. No more me being over responsible. I hate being like that. It's now eleven in the morning and I was so bored. Liam had to go with his mum, I didn’t even bother asking what it was.

The girls are all busy. I know that Chelsea and Diana are visiting family and Alyssa is being forced to stay home today because as her mum says ‘you don’t spend enough time with your family’. I feel her pain though.

I was brought out of my thoughts by my phone ringing. I look at the caller ID and saw that it was Zayn. 

"Hey Malik," I answered.

"Hey, I’m bored, anything to do over at yours?" he asked and I stayed silent for a small moment to think.

"Nope, Aidan’s at Jordan’s again so I’m free and I'm seriously bored. Wait… do you wanna go grocery shopping with me?" I replied. My voice getting more excited as an idea popped into my mind.

"Um… not really, no," he said a bit hesitantly.

"It’s to make brownies, I bake when I’m bored," I reassured him. "I don’t have any stuff for brownies here but they taste amazing. Pwease…" I continued to beg.

"Fine but I’m only coming--" he finally agreed but I cut him off mid-sentence.

"Yes, yes you’re bored blah blah blah. Pick you up in fifteen, bye," I said in a rush before hanging up on him.

I put on my shoes and got the car keys. Just like always, the drive was short and when I pulled up in front of Zayn’s house I saw him sitting on the steps of his front porch on his phone. He looked up when he heard the car pull up, stood up and walked over. We were off on our journey.

{At the grocery}

I got a cart and walked over to where Zayn was standing. “You’re pushing this thing,” I said. As he started to push, I stopped him. I went on the other end and climbed into the cart,” Now go,” I said.

“Are you serious?” he said and I gave him a do-I look-like-I’m-joking look. He said nothing, he just stood their looking at me.

“Onward,” I said, pointing forward. We got everything including chocolate chips and caramel.

Yummy! Are you making for me to?

You’re not a person, how can you get any?

Gosh, selfish much, but anyways I’m you so I’ll get anyways.

Exactly so how is that being selfish.

……

Nothing to say now huh?

As we reached up to cash, I tried to get out the cart but couldn’t. Oh no this is not good. “Zayn, could you, like help me out, pwease…” I said while batting my eyelashes. He sighed, came over and tried his best and it worked but as I landed on the ground, I lost my balance and nearly fell. Lucky me, Zayn caught me.
