[A.N.]- language maybe:S all Zayn's POVs probably have this
*Zayn's P.O.V*
I took one last look in the mirror before I left. Why the fuck do I care so much about the way I look? Oh god, I'm acting like a girl. I had on a black T-shirt that showed off my muscles, and loose jeans. I was wearing low red converse and my fringe fell into my eyes as normal.
I sighed, then walked out of my house. It was sunny today, for August, so it was nice just to walk. Tori's house wasn't that far from mine actually. Tori... Damn that girl looked good yesterday.
It took extreme efforts not to check her out all the time like the guys were doing, I knew that if she wasn't there with me Jacob would have gone straight for her, I shook my head. Everyone thinks she's my girlfriend now, that's why I'm walking her to school.
Well, that's what I tell myself. I'm actually walking her to school because I like her. No point in lying to myself, I liked Tori, despite what I told her. Just because I liked her doesn't mean I didn't love Sophie. I'm not sure if I still loved Sophie since I think she's a bitch now.
Tori didn't mention their conversation to me, but Soph did. She didn't say much, just 'nice little conversation with your whore there.' Then she walked away. Bitch. Tori wasn't a whore, like Sophie. Tori was sweet and kind, smart and cute and funny and innocent. Way too good for me.
There was two reasons that stopped me from kissing her goodnight yesterday, one was Sophie. I still had feelings for her, I mean that's one fucking hot body, but I also loved her personality, was it all a fake? Another reason was Tori herself. That girl was too fucking perfect and good for me, I might hurt her.
I shook my head, sending away the bad thoughts. Tori still loved that Jack prick anyway.
I remembered what I text Tori yesterday, 'I should have kissed you'. Dammit, I hope it wouldn't be awkward today. You know those texts you send in the middle of the night and you're not really sure what you're writing, then you regret them in the morning? That's what this was.
Before long I was at Tori's house, I lifted my hand to the doorbell but before I could press it a ball of red hair pounced on me. "ZAYN!" She screamed in my ear.
"Ow." I said, rubbing the side she screamed on.
"Oops." She muttered, a blush showing across her freckled cheeks. I looked her up and down, she was wearing skinny jeans, the same shoes as yesterday, and a white tank top. There was no make up on her. To be honest, I couldn't care less what she was wearing, that girl was goddamn near perfect.
I noticed she was staring at me so I smirked at her, "You have drool on your chin, Tors." She wiped her chin quickly and I laughed, she glared at me, "Now you're blushing!"
"Damnit! I always blush!"
"I think it's cute." I said, staring at her, a small smile on my lips. She blushed even deeper. I reached out and took her hand, "lets go."
We walked along the pavement in silence, it wasn't an awkward silence, in fact, it was quite comfortable. Our arms swung in between us. What Sophie said to me yesterday popped into my head again, curiosity won out.
"So, what did you and Sophie talk about yesterday?" I brung up casually. She stared at me, her beautiful green eyes widening in shock. "Sophie told me she talked to you, I saw her walking away."
"Oh." I waited for her to say more, to my surprise her eyes welled up with tears. I stopped her and before I could ask her what's wrong she spoke again, looking into my eyes, "I don't want to tell you because I'm scared you won't like me anymore."
I freaked out for a second because I didn't know how she knew I liked her, then I realised she meant as a friend, "Tori, don't be stupid, tell me."
"She told me to stay away from you..." My heart skipped a beat, Sophie still liked me? Wait, she was a bitch-whore.
"That's it?" I asked Tori, why would I be annoyed at her for that?
"She grabbed my wrist," she said looking at the floor, I felt my eyebrows come together in confusion. She didn't explain anymore so I asked,
"Did she hurt you?"
"No, she saw my wrist." Tori's voice cracked on the last syllable and I grabbed her wrist. There was nothing on it, I took her other hand. I froze upon seeing what was there. Four or five white lines, one of them was pink, healing. Scars. Oh my fucking god.
Without speaking, I hugged Tori as hard as I could and she started crying. "Tori why didn't you tell me? I would never, ever, ever hate you! You're so fucking stupid sometimes!" She hit me.
"Don't swear!"
"I'm sixteen, I'm allowed to swear sometimes." I quoted her from yesterday.
"Sometimes! Not all the time!" She laughed.
"Wait, what did Sophie say to you?"
"Freak, bitch, whore, attention seeker, nerd. Nothing unusual." She said this calmly but I could tell it hurt her.
"FUCKING BITCH!" She hit me again, "sorry but it's true!"
"Zayn..." She said slowly, "what time is it?"
I looked at my watch, "Fuck, run!" We had five minutes to get to school, I held her hand and kept at her pace all the way to school. We weren't that far away though, but it still took over five minutes, Tori was slow. At the gates we realised we both have the first same class so we ran to the Maths room together.
We sprinted down the hallway, still holding hands and burst through the classroom door, laughing our heads off. Mr. Reynolds looked at us like we were fucking demons as we so rudely disrupted the class. He gave us both a detention.
"Awh, the lovebirds have detention together." Said someone from the back of the class, Kyle. I wanted to punch that bastard in the face.
"Detention for Kyle too, all three of you in my room after school. Victoria, Zayn, sit down and copy the board." We did. I couldn't concentrate on maths class, not like I ever do, for many reasons. One, Tori was in the room, my eyes kept focusing themselves to her. Two, Kyle kept trying to call me out or insult me, I just clenched my fist and didnt do anything. Three, the whispers.
'Oh my god, he's going out with her!?'
'But she's a nerd!!'
'I heard she cuts.'
'What a freak, he's probably trying to make Sophie jealous.'
'That girl has issues.'
Assholes. What did they know. I saw Tori keep clenching her fists, I was behind her so I couldn't see her face but I hoped she wasn't crying. I hoped she wasn't, of course. The class passed really slowly and when the bell finally rang I met Tori out in the hall. A girl nudged past her saying freak.
"Excuse me?" I said to her. She batted her eyelashes at me.
"Yes?" Her voice sounded thick with what I suppose was meant to be seduction, ew.
"Would you apologise to my girlfriend?"
She blinked, "uh- sorry?"
"Now go tell your friends that I won't be so nice next time." She scuttled off.
"You didn't need to do that." Tori said with a smile on her face, huh, she was stronger than I thought.
I shrugged, "Stupid bitches don't know what they're talking about."
She laughed, "Bye, I need to go to my next class." She stood on her tiptoes and kissed me on the cheek, my lips curled up involuntarily.
"See ya, babe." She crinkled her nose as I called her that and walked away. I couldn't help but check out her ass as she walked away. Hey! I'm still a dude! And damn that girl is fine! Some of the people in the hall stopped to stare but I ignored them.
The next few classes were boring, the time wouldn't move and nobody was in any of my classes. Well, Dustin was in a few and Dennis too, of course. They had the same classes. I talked to them about Tori and they told me they had already punched a guy for insulting her. I smiled, glad my friends were sticking up for her too.
'Dude, do you like Tori?' Xavier asked me in lunch as we were kicking the football around.
'She's a great friend.' I replied, avoiding his question.
He smiled, "That's not what I asked." He paused to kick the ball, "Well since you don't like her I guess I can have a go, damn that body."
What an asshole! How fucking dare he! I grabbed the collar of his shirt and spat in his face, "Stay away from her."
Xavier burst out laughing, "I so knew you liked her bro." Fuck. Oops.
I heard girly squealing from near me and then a high pitched voice, "SEE! I knew he liked you!" I turned around to see a girl I don't know standing next to a blushing Tori. What the hell?
"Hey Zayn. This is my friend Jenna." Tori told me, hugging Xavier then me, I kissed her on the cheek, taking advantage of our supposed dating status. "She knows I'm not really your girlfriend."
I stared in shock, "Uh, what? Why?"
"She's like my second best friend. I tell her everything."
"Why didn't you go with her to carnival?"
"I had to babysit my annoyed little brother! God, I'll never get to have a normal teenage life! This is why nobody knows me!" The petite blonde girl called Jenna said. She was taller than Tori, no surprises, but still short with cropped blonde hair and blue eyes.
I smirked, "Vocal."
Jenna narrowed her eyes at me, then circled round me, basically raping me with her eyes, "You will do." I stared, what? She was being a freak.
Tori hit her, "JENNA!"
"What? He obviously likes you!"
"Oh my god, he's right there! He can hear us!"
"I know."
I had no idea what they were on about, girls. "Yeah, Z here does like Tori." Xavier told them. I shot him a glare that clearly said what the fuck.
Jenna giggled and squealed, whispering some more things to Tori. A while after Jenna shut up I said to Tori, "After detention I'll walk you back home, okay?"
"I'm not five." She frowned. I took a step towards her.
"Who says its for your protection? Maybe I just want to walk you home?" My voice went slightly deeper as I said this.
She raised an eyebrow, "Do you?"
I smirked and tapped me nose, "That's for me to know-"
She cut me off, "and you to tell me?" She added.
"You're a work of art." I laughed shaking my head at her.
"Z, I'm a masterpiece." I laughed then did a double take, then groaned.
"Don't call me Z."
"I think it's cute."
"I'm not cute. Stunningly sexy, maybe, but not cute." I grunted arrogantly.
"Hey! I'm definitely the sexy one!"
"Yes, you are." I stroked the side of her face with my thumb, only now realising how close we were. Should I kiss her? She glanced around self-conscientiously and that's when I remembered Xavier and Jenna were there. Me and Tori jumped apart. They burst out laughing.
"JAZMIN!" Jenna suddenly shouted and ran over to where Jazmin and Jack were standing. I looked at Tori questioningly.
"They're still friends." She explained.
"I don't think I like Jenna." I frowned. Tori didn't reply but Xavier nodded. Jazmin, Jenna and Jack were walking over to us.
It was kind of awkward when they got there. Xavier put one arm around Tori and I held her hand. She looked nervous. Jazmin and Jenna were talking and Jack walked right over to us, smirking. God, I wish I could rip that fucking assholes head off.
"Heard an interesting rumour about you today, Tor." He said to her.
"She doesn't need to hear it." I told him.
"But it's funny! It's probably true too! Since she's a psychopath and all. Sophie's been telling everyone she cuts herself!" He laughed and I couldn't take it anymore, I punched that arrogant asshole in the face.
Before I could do any really damage, Tori and Xavier dragged me away.
The rest of the day passed uneventfully. I saw Sophie and Kyle once but managed to avoid them. Before I knew it, the last bell had rang. I was about to sprint home, when I remember I had detention. Oh goody, Kyle was going to be there. I sighed and headed down the hall.
When I got to the door I heard voices inside, so I stopped and listened.
"It's okay. I'm sorry for Sophie, she just still has some feelings for Zayn and I understand that. I promise I'll make her be nicer to you. I didn't know what you were going through." I heard Kyles voice and my hands turned into fists.
"It's okay." I heard Toris sweet voice reply to him, then I walked in. She jumped slightly then came over to me and gave a hug, I kissed her forehead, sending a warning glance at Kyle, he smirked at me, dick.
I sat at the opposite side of the room to Kyle, and Tori sat near me. I was kind of pissed at her for forgiving Kyle but I still needed to pretend she was my girlfriend.
Detention was actually quite boring. Mr. Reynolds came in and made us sit in silence for twenty minutes, then let us leave. Kyle muttered a quick bye then almost ran away.
I grabbed Tori's hand and we walked out of the school too. "How much did you hear?" She asked me.
"What?"
"Of mine and Kyle's conversation. I know you're annoyed at me but I want to say I don't believe a word he says, I just want him to think I do." I let out a sigh of relief and kissed the top of her red-head.
We talked on the way back, and she brushed off everything that happened, like people insulting her, and she also criticised me for hitting Jack. I knew the insulting bothered her thought and she liked Jack being hit. Girls.
I hugged her once we got to the front of her house mumbling a goodbye. She said bye too then walk up the steps. After only walking two steps I shouted, "Tori, wait!"
She looked back at me expectantly and I jogged over, without thinking I grabbed her waist and pulled her close to my body. Leaning down to press my lips to hers. Her hand lay on my chest and she kissed me back. Fuck, that girl can kiss. It wasn't like kissing Sophie, with her it was nice, but it wasnt this. I couldn't really explain it.
Too soon, (I didn't want to push her) I pulled away and grinned.
"Should have done that yesterday."
I didn't stop smiling all the way home.
