"Let Hazza, Ni, Payno and Z be in the task of managing a day off between the tour dates. I formulated a plan. My hand fracture would come in handy. All of us are actually gonna have fun with this one" I said in a cheeky voice.

Present


"You sure, you can you do this?" Louis asked me. We stood in the middle of a dark and lonely street with one end as the dead end. The other one opened the way to the main road. A rope connected the two buildings, stood at either side of the street. The rope was bearing few spotlights which were now focused upon us two. "Yes, I can. It's no big deal," I replied."I feel like I'm putting you at risk" Louis wrapped his hands over mine."Remember when you sang 'Diana' at a show, you said 'I don't think you even realise. Baby, you'll be saving mine'. Minus the word 'baby' " I chuckled. Even Louis grinned. "I think now it's my chance, I owe you this anyway." I smiled and comforted him by rubbing his hands."Yeah, yeah. Just be careful. That Derek guy can do unexpected things, " Louis said."Fine. I'll see ya" I slowly let go of my hands and disappeared in the pitch dark.


I strolled through the crowded footpath. I never knew that I'll be meeting them in these two months of their tour. We met for a good cause, I'm happy. A month more and we'll be going to India! There's so much more to talk about with them. These thoughts visited my head as I was searching for the place I had to go.


I could sense that someone was tracking my steps. Raising my hands horizontally, I instantly turned back. I was about to punch whoever was there but, then I halted."Chill!!!" a hazel brown-eyed guy raised his hands as if he was a criminal who wanted to surrender. "Why are you following me, Zayn?" I asked. "I just wanted to make sure if you're okay," he said innocently. "Okay, don't be suspicious" I chuckled. Zayn made sure there was at least a 5-metre gap between us.


"He's coming," Zayn handed over me few books and motioned me to move. With the books in my hand, I started walking at a higher pace than usual. Derek, the tall and muscular guy, walked towards me not knowing his consequences. I dropped the books at his feet, intentionally. He helped me with gathering all of them because I pretended to struggle with one working hand. My fractured wrist gained some sympathy for me. Great, the plan worked, but it's not over yet. "Thanks," I said and dropped the books again and started running, which looked really weird and suspicious. Derek began chasing me. Yes! This is what I wanted.


The street looked crowded than ever before. People didn't care about the two of us rushing like fools. I paused my sprinting abruptly as the same eyes disturbed me. I met 'the wicked eyes' again, he had a mask on which made it hard for me to recognise his familiar face. "Hey!" I moved my hands, attempting to take his mask off. I rethought my moves and sprinted again because Derek was only inches away from me. If I stopped, then the plan would be in vain. Anyway, the boys don't even know that some familiar person is stalking me for days. I didn't tell them in call because its not something that can be shared publicly. Right after we deal with this Derek, we'll move on to this stalker.


Finally, I lead Derek to our dark and shady street. Zayn closed the gates behind us. There was no way out, the other is a dead end. Perfect."Guys, take the lead from now. I'm done" I panted and sat against a wall.The lights were now focused on Derek and another beautiful girl, Daisy."Oh, so this is your plan, huh?" Derek's American accent poured."You never paid attention to my words. I just want to tell you one thing. You can't force me to love you, I just don't have that feeling for you" Daisy said politely." I DONT CARE!" he answered rudely."It's time for the show" I shouted desperately and enthusiastically.


The boys emerged from each of the corners. All the light centred to them. I suggested them to wear masks, hoodies and jackets as in disguise.Louis, with his hands at the back, slowly moved towards Derek. Derek didn't move an inch, stood there bravely. "How dare you mess with her?" he slammed a pie on Derek's face. "What?!" Derek, who was no longer standing shrieked. There was no time for him to wipe it out of his eyes as Zayn smashed another one which dragged him closer to the dirty ground. "Apologise with her, and pray that you'll be forgiven, you idiot," Zayn said. Poor kid didn't have time to get up and apologise because Liam was ready for his chance. "Stay in your limits" Liam shot his one. "STOP" he yelled. "He might die. Let's leave him for now" Harry showed pity on him though sarcasm reflected in his words. "Treat people with kindness" Harry crashed his pie on 'the pie face man'. "My turn" Niall came forward. The pie slipped from his hands even before he could knock down Derek for the hundredth time. "Oh no, Nialler" Liam and Louis sighed. Niall looked down at his shoes in disappointment. "It's okay" they laughed at his clumsiness.Louis stepped beside the man who lay on the ground, breathing rapidly and at the same time was in relief as they stopped shooting pies on his face. "Don't be relieved. This is nothing compared to the amount of shit Daisy went through 'cause of you. Just a 'Sweet Warning'. " his words were drenched with attitude. "I'm sorry!! Never coming back!" Derek ran and exited through the gate which was opened by Zayn.


"Thank you, Thank you so much, guys" Daisy went to the boys and hugged them tightly. "I'll never let anything happen to you" Louis assured her as happy tears ran through all of their faces. Louis signalled Ryan, Phoebe Tomlinson and Lottie Tomlinson, the girls behind the lights, to join the hug. "What are you waiting for? C'mon!" Louis said to me. We shared a warm group hug, as if we were family.



The day played in my thoughts as I lay on my bed. My heart was filled with happiness and joy. The deed we've done tonight was heartwarming. Daisy was eased and so did, Louis and his sisters. I've told the lads about the man stalking me. They were afraid but, I assured them that I'll be careful. The next encounter, I'll discover the person behind the mask, I'm sure.


The front doorbell rang, unusual because it was already 11:59 pm. Ryan must have been in her deep sleep, there's no option I had to go. With a pan in my hand, I entered the living room. The pan was just a protective measure incase if its someone like Sam or Derek or The Stalker. I twisted the doorknob and slid the door open. The people I saw there were unexpected at this time.
