Heading In Any Other Direction

Carter:.

Me and Kendall had crashed at the boys place. I yawned slightly and looked at the clock 10am. “Crap!” I whisper shouted and shook Kendall. “We are late for work and I’m missing class!” I said to her as she rubbed her eyes and jolted upright.

She got off the couch and I got off the floor we both stretched and tiptoed out of the room and saw all the boys asleep on their beds. I put a finger to my lips and me and Kendall exited their penthouse.

“How did we end up here?” I laughed. Kendall smiled and shrugged. “Well any way I am going home,” I said hugging her and she replied, “Same here.”

I waved to her bye as we left on our own ways home. Just then I got a text, ‘Interview is at 12 –Zayn’ How did Zayn get my number? I thought to myself shocked. I quickly replied.

‘How do you know my number? –Carter’ I stood to the side of the sidewalk to let others pass by. ‘I found your phone on the floor after you crashed on the floor –Zayn’

‘Oh okay then o.o –Carter’

I put my phone away, just great I was going for a job interview and the only reason I’m going to try for that job is I need the money for university. Without it I will have to go back home which I would rather do then return to Canada.

I ran home and showered and got ready for the interview with Syco (http://www.polyvore.com/carters_interveiw/set?id=74537800). I patted Diesels head and fed and filled his water bowl before racing out of my flat I had a half an hour till the interview and I dint want to be late.

As I headed down the street to the address Liam gave me I noticed a black SUV following me. I looked back it had tinted windows so I couldn’t see the driver. I grabbed my bag and started to sprint down the street and the car kept following.

I kept running till I reached an intersection and the car pulled up blocking my path. The window rolled down on the seat right behind the drivers and I saw Zayn. “Well get in Carter!”

I blushed and pulled the door open and climbed over Zayn in the seat next to him Liam was in the driver’s seat. Zayn was fidgeting with his fingers and they started to drive and I just looked out the window trying to avoid talking to them.

“Did you plan on walking?” Said Liam shocked. I nodded and he laughed. “You would walk 20 blocks?” “If I had too, then yes,” I sassed back in a monotone voice turning in my seat and staring at my shoes.

The rest of the car ride I sat in silence as Zayn talked to Liam I think at some point I fell asleep and I woke up leaning on Zayn’s shoulder.

I moved away quickly and Zayn looked at me oddly. “Awe come on lots of girls would die to be in your position.” He said pouting.

“We are here.” Liam said while turning off the car and getting out. I pushed my door open and looked around. We were at a normal office building but much more modern than most of the office towers here.

I closed my door shut almost slamming it and I followed Liam to the front doors. Zayn followed close behind him next to me. I raced ahead of Liam and pushed the door open and held it open for them.

They raced in scowling at me and I smiled evilly. Zayn walked up to the front desk a hand on the small of my back and I pulled away so his hand didn’t touch me.

“Carter, um Carter what’s your last name?” Liam said turning to face me. “It’s Carter Dawson,” I said to the secretary. She smiled and told me, “6th floor they want you in the room at the very end of the hall.” I smiled and thanked her and I noticed Liam shoot a smile to Zayn and he shot one back.

“Who am I going to talk to?” I asked them as we made our way to the elevator. “You will see Carter,” Said Liam pushing me into the elevator.

As soon as I entered the small metal box I felt my heart start to race and I was getting some anxiety now. I walked to a corner and sat down and was mumbling to myself. I could feel them looking at me but I didn’t dare open my eyes.

“Carter get up we are here.” Zayn said pulling me up to my feet. I got up and nearly fell but maintained my balance and pushed my beanie back into the hair clips. We walked down a wide hall and it was almost like a penthouse but there was a massive desk in the corner surrounded by pictures and other decorations.

I couldn’t see who it was but he leaned over form the monitor and smiled clapping his hands together. “Zayn! Liam! How are my boys?” Simon chuckled getting out of his chair and hugging Liam and Zayn squishing them.
