Book 1: C . A . T

Prologue : The Truth.

*Zayn's P.O.V*

My heart was beating hard in my chest as my grip tightened around his waist while we sped on my motorcycle through the city. I couldn't believe that this is happening to me. I couldn't believe that the government and the FBI were chasing us the ones who are sworn to protect the citizens of this city we're now putting hundreds of people's lives at risk all because of one person. My breathing was ragged as he skillfully dodged people on the streets. This was all so much for me to take in within a week maybe if I had just gone home that night and left that damn cat alone then maybe I wouldn't be in this mess. Maybe I would still be at home even though there was no one I could come home to. It sounded a lot better than being chased across the street with your life on the line all because you made one mistake and out of all the things my mistake was bringing that cat home. Now it was terrorizing my life. I felt him speed up the motorcycle the wind brushing through my hair seem to thicken and hurt like someone was pulling on it. He was leading me somewhere he was in control of my life now and there was nothing I could do about it. As much as I wish that this will just be a nightmare or a dream I knew deep down inside of myself that that was never going to happen in my once normal life I will never get it back. My job, even though I quite enjoyed it sometimes, I thought, no, I knew, that I was never going to be able to go back to that same place and work my same shift like I do every other night because this person this thing took that all the way from me all because of where he came from and what he is and what the government wants with him. We sped up and raced across the street I heard yelling and gunshots. 'Oh my God' was all I could think 'they're going to kill us' 'they are trying to kill us' 'I was going to die' these are all the thoughts that race through my mind of the gunshots got louder and I felt them closer I could hear his grunting as he was becoming frustrated. Now this is getting out of hand this is too much to bare. I yelped as I felt a bullet graze right under my ear leaving a bloody scar right below my ear. The man driving the motorcycle look back at me and looked me right in the eye. Then he flash to look to the people in the cars the FBI people the ones trying to hunt us down and kill us. " I need you to listen to me." I pulled my head up so that it wasn't leaning on the back of his shoulder but it was resting on top of his shoulder and I looked him in the eye as I was panicking. "What are you going to do?" He showed no emotion towards me as I felt him speed up the motorcycle even more. " I need you to hold on to me as hard as you can. No matter what happens, don't let go of me. No matter what, do you understand?" I quickly squeezed my arms around his waist as hard as I possibly could like my life depended on it, which it probably did. "Okay but, what are you going to do?" I stared in front of us only to have my eyes widen and my heart beat pick up speed at the sight. There was an 18-wheeler blocking the road with police cars in front of it. I've then realized what he was going to do it's kind of like out of the movies but this is really happening and honestly I was dreading every moment. He was going to jump off the motorcycle and possibly fake our own deaths. He gave me no words of comforting like he even cared. I suddenly felt like someone had just pushed me up wards. I suddenly felt weightless like I was flying until reality kick back in and I landed but it wasn't hard because when I looked up he was laying on his back and he had broken my fall. I was honestly stunned as i gaze into those big blood red eyes that were just like mine. And then I heard a deafening explosion. On Instinct I quickly wrap my arms around him like he was actually going to protect me I didn't care if I look stupid in front of him I was just scared and I admit it it was the most terrifying moment in my life nothing could ever compare to this. I heard him tell me to put my arms around his neck so I listened and when I did I felt him pick up my legs and he told me to wrap my legs around his waist I guess he already knew what wasn't going to be strong enough to make this journey with him. even if I didn't know where we were going or if we were ever going to come back to this city but I didn't know that I was never going to be the same person ever again. This boy will change my life forever. As he was carrying me he took off down the alley and he was running, running out of the city, out of the town's, out of civilization. I don't understand why he decided to bring me with him, I was just a letdown, I was slowing him down. but for some reason I was also glad he brought me with him for once in my life, I felt like I somehow had meaning again. I didn't know where we were going or how long it take us but I just knew that wherever he was the government and the FBI are bound to have followed us no matter where we run, no matter where we hide, they will always be there...
