Mira's POV
I walked with Niall down the hall until we got to our English classroom. I looked up at him and got an excited feeling. I just realized that Niall was actually going to be in class with me, suddenly school seemed more bearable. But I spoke too soon, when I walked into the room, all eyes were on me. The kids who were a minute ago being loud and talking over eachother left and right, suddenly slowed to whispers and were eyeing me and eachother. I kind of hid behind Niall without realizing it. Niall seems to notice, and gives my hand a quick squeeze. I sat down in the back nervously. I knew the kids were any minute going to start in with all their stupid questions about where I've been and if I'm pregnant or not. I buried my face in my hands. I didn't want Niall to think I'm a loser at school....I mean I am, but I don't want Niall to know that! I didn't want him hear all the rumors about me and Zayn, because how uncomfortable for him is that?
"Mira?" Some quiet girls voice asks me. I look up, and see the girl who never talks much, but is always sweet to people. I always liked her, but never knew her name.
"Hi." I say, giving her a half smile.
"I don't want to be annoying or anything, but after you left school and everything, I just wanted to make sure you were ok." She says. I perked up in my seat. I couldn't believe it. Someone for once wasn't asking about me being pregnant or commenting on how big of a slut I am. I gave her a warm smile now.
"Thanks." I say. "I'm fine, thanks for asking." I didn't know what else to say, but my response was a far cry from what I wanted to say. I wanted to say thank you for being the first real human being at this school that actually cares about other people. Well I guess theres Amber too....but she's Amber. The girl just smiles and looks all cute and says "ok good." Wow I really love her. Why am I not her friend? Niall leans over to me.
"Who was that, she seemed nice." Niall says.
"This is gonna sound bad but I have no clue what her name is." I say. Then suddenly, right when I was about to say something to Niall, some guy comes bounding into the classroom, and sits right on my desk. He almost sat on my hands. I pulled back surprised.
"Heyyy there Servati. Zayn's been lookin for you all damn day." He says, pulling off his snapback and then swishing it back on the other way. I roll my eyes.
"Hey man, could you get off the lady's desk?" Niall says. I turn to him surprised, but a grin spreads across my face. The guy looks at him. I knew this douche was one of Zayn's friends. Why are all his friends complete dicks?
"Who the fuck are you?" The guy says, pulling out a piece of gum from his pocket.
"I'm Niall." Niall says nicely. I sort of giggled. He's always so polite to everyone.
"Ah, cool." He says, then turns back to me, not moving from his seat on my desk. "Well anyway, Zayn's gonna wait for you outside after class, he told me to tell ya that." I frown.
"Woah wait I don't want to-" But I'm cut off.
"Ight, cool. Cya kiddo." He says, then ruffles the top of my head. I cringe. Can he not...do that.
All through class I couldn't pay attention. I kept tapping my foot nervously on the side of the desk, and chewing on my pencil. Why does Zayn want to see me? I couldn't talk to Zayn with Niall here! I mean I know Niall wouldn't think theres anything going on between us, he's too smart for that...but then again, he did see me grind on Zayn at the party....god I keep forgeting about that. When the bell finally rang, I jumped in my seat. Shit shit shit. I anixously glanced out the doorway and my heart leaped. Zayn was leaning up against the door frame, waiting for me. i swallowed hard.
"Niall!" I say to him, a little too loudly. Niall turns to me as the rest of the class walks out the door. "Can you cover me?" I ask him, he tilts his head all confused.
"Cover you....from what?" He asks. I head nod towards the door where Zayn is. And Nial sees him.
"Mira." I heard Zayn's voice call. It was too late, he saw me, and theres no pretending like I didn't hear that. I glance nervously at Niall, trying to tell him in a look that theres nothing between me and Zayn. Period. But watching Niall's curious face at my probably weird facial expressions, I remembered that only girls can speak to each other through those looks.
"Hey Mira." Zayn calls again. I turn around and take a deep breath. I walk up to him out in the hallway, but before I do, I grab Niall's hand and yank him along with me. Niall was not leaving my side, especially now. I watch Zayn eye Niall with a pained expression.
"Mira, could I talk to you, alone?" Zayn asks.
"Alone? What, we are alone. The hallways empty!" I say like an idiot. Zayn nods at Niall, who got the message, but was reluctant to leave me.
"What do you have to tell me Zayn?" I say quickly, standing close to Niall. Zayn clears his throat. This was gettting increasingly awkward for everyone.
"I'll stand over here." Niall says slowly, pointing in the direction he was going to walk as he slowly steps away. My chest tightened. I knew Niall was didn't want any trouble, and was only trying to make the situation better, but damn it I didn't want him to leave. Zayn suddenly grabs my hand and walks me forward. I felt uncomfortable with his unfamilar touch. I turned around to Niall standing a couple feet away, as Zayn slowly walks me away even further. Niall gives me a frowny smile look, I could tell he didn't like me being with Zayn, but at the same time, he didn't know what to do about it. Zayn kept walking me away down the hall, I stopped paying attention to where we were going.
"Look Mira, I haven't seen you in forever. And I know the last time I saw you, I basically made a fool out of myself." Zayn says, his voice getting that higher lighter pitch it gets when he's talking all lovey to me. The fake deep toughness just melts off him as fast as it comes back on.
"Zayn, you didn't make a fool out of yourself. Don't worry about it, I'm fine....you're fine. Everythings great." I say, trying to lead the conversation out of where I think he was going.
"But Mira, are you sure? I mean what happened to you? I just remember seeing the whole school gathered on the front steps, so I came out...to see you crying with that guy. I mean you scared me, and then you left and never came back....shit Mira what happened?" Zayn asks. I could tell he genuinely wanted to know, and the weird thing was, he actually made me want to believe that he really was concerned for me. I had to think up a lie quick though.
"Oh, my grandma died. It was really sudden....and my uh...brother came to pick me up. That's all." I say, pulling the loose strands of hair back into my pony tail. Zayn in silent for a moment.
"Well I'm just glad you're ok." Zayn says. Suddenly we stop walking. And I just then looked at our surroundings.
"Um....where are we?" I ask nervously. We were in some empty part of the school, it looked like this used to be an old science wing but they shut it down. All the doors were locked and the walls were barren except for a few posters that said stuff like "Science is fun!" I litteraly felt like I was in some abandoned school.
"The back hall." Zayn says, a grin on his face. I back up a little.
"Whats...."the back hall," I say with an exaggerated tone on "back hall" like this was some place I should totally know about. Zayn takes my hands, and his eyes move up and down my body. Oh. Shit.
"Woah Zayn." I say, almost like he's a horse or something. I would have laughed at myself, if I wasn't living the situation right now.
"What's the matter Mira?" Zayn asks. "Don't worry, no one ever comes back here. It's just you....and me." He says. The way he said it almost sounded like me was mimicking someone....
"Zayn, I'm sorry.....I-" I start to say, but get cut off.
"Mira, I don't know if you love me, but I still love you, and I want to show you." He says. Damn he was sexy as hell, but his creepy meter just went up like 10 notches.
"Zayn, honestly....I can't do this....there's someone el-" I kept trying to mention Niall, and I think Zayn knew it too, and thats why he kept cutting me off.
"But suddenly in the midst of Zayn trying to make a move on me, I hear two familiar voices coming down the hall, that should not....and do not mix.
"Were almost there cutie, come on baby!" A high pitched voice says, followed by a very confused and reluctant Irish one. "Keria, I said I didn't want to go back here-" But suddenly all voices are cut off and everyone turns to look at eachother. My jaw dropped. Niall was standing there with Keira, who had a fake look of shock on her face.
"Mira? and Zayn? Who ever thought you two would be here?" Keira says looking from Zayn to Niall to me. Zayn frowns and pulls away from me.
"Keira you asshole you knew damn well I was taking Mira back here and you just wanted to be a bitch about it." Zayn says, clenching his fists. This would be another prime time to say "woah there horsey" to Zayn. I ran over to Niall, who was confused as hell.
"You and Zayn, were back here?" Niall asks. "Keira said no one went back here..." Niall says.
"Well everyone does honey, thats just what you say to get new people to come."Keira says, then turns on her fake surprise again.
"But, Mira and Zayn were together down here Niall. Doing stuff." She says. Oh for cryin out loud. Everyone here was wayyy too smart to fall for Keira's see through attempt to pretend like I was all over Zayn, and make it look like that to Niall, so I would hate Zayn and she could make him jealous and use this bullshit to get Zayn in bed again. Now whose the slut. But looking at everyone's confused faces...maybe I was the only one that saw that.
I just rolled my eyes at Keira.
"Sorry Zayn, its been fun and all, but I got to go." I say, taking Niall's hand and kind of jogging out of there. That situation was getting more and more awkward by the second. I heard Zayn and Keira arguing, but finally they leave too. I could hear their voices fading in the other direction. On the stairs I tried to explain to Niall Keira's stupid but complex mind and what she was trying to do there.
"Don't ever trust her Niall. She's one person that its ok to be a dick too, because she's a btich to everyone else." I tell him. he was frowning the whole time listening to me. I had already heard two bells ring, me and Niall were missing class. I get up from the stairs.
"Niall we should go, sorry you had to deal with all that." Niall stands up, then gets this look on his face. A wide grin forms on his lips.
"What?" I ask him, now smiling myself. Niall takes my hand and pulls me into him. I wrap my arms around him.
"ugh Niall stop making it so hard to leave you, we have to go to class." I say. Niall keeps hugging me. "damn it, I don't want to go." I say.
"Then don't." Niall says, putting my hair back behind my ears.
"You wanna go to the back hall?" He asks me.
