STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY

-Saffron-

“Um, Ms. Lendree? Are you SURE they want to talk to me?” I asked after I snapped back to reality.
“YES, Hunter. Now, go and have a talk.” Ms. Lendree went in before I can respond. I gulped before turning to the lads.

They were all smiles.

“Hello, Hunter.” Liam smiled so wide, he could've been awarded as the "Best Smile" and won the Guiness World Records' "Widest Smile."
“Hi, Liam.” I grinned as wide as he did.
“I assume, you know us all? Are you a directioner?” Louis asked with that usual alive aura.
“Um...yes. But I'm not, like, "OH MY GOSH! IT'S LOUIS TOMLINSON!" kind of directioner.” I said with all honesty.
“Really?” Niall asked with a raised a brow.
“Yes.” I replied, still smiling.

I believe that first impression lasts.

“Well, you must be curious why you're here and talking to us.” Harry said with a flirtatious smile. I gave it back. And when I did, Zayn looked over at Harry and glared at him.

Um...okay?

Harry stopped smiling and Zayn turned to me again.
“Yes, I am curious.” I agreed with Harry's statement earlier.
“Well, Liam?” Niall said, motioning for Liam to come forward.
“Lottie, you know Cody Sunn, right?” He asked. I nodded.
“You should avoid him.” He said quietly.

WHAT?

I mean, Cody looks so harmless. He's my 16-year-old English project partner. He's just there, bein' himself; just smiling when he needs to, talks when he needs to, moves when he needs to.

Really. Avoid him. Nice way to treat a nice guy.

“Look, Saff, he may look harmless, but there's something about you that makes him dangerous.” Liam explained.

ME? ABOUT ME? WHAT ABOUT ME THAT MAKES HIM DANGEROUS?

WHAT THE HELL?

OH! DOES HE...LIKE ME?

“We're gonna tell you everything in the right time. In the meantime, enjoy your classes.”
Niall said, and I mentally rolled my eyes.

Tell me one reason why I should enjoy my classes.

“Oh, I mean, try enjoying it.” Niall smiled at me, kind of a shy type.

Yeah. Let's bet I'm gonna sleep on my classes.

“Bye, Saff. See you.” They waved at me as they walked away. Then, Liam walked to me and whispered to my ear, “And if you're going to the concert, which is tomorrow, don't go alone. Cody is, um...a stalker. I hope I'll see you there.” He looked at me when he said told me the last part, then winked.

THOU. SHALT. NOT. BLUSH.

NO!

Not at least in from them.

“Liam! Where are you?” Louis' voice echoed through the hallways, making some teachers take a peek.
“We'll see you, yeah?” He asked as he walked the same way the other lads did.
“Yeah. I'll be there.” I replied, making him smile. So, I returned the favour.

What's so important with my presence?

“See ya! Don't tell anyone!” He waved at me before disappearing.

That's like, the fourth I heard them say, “See ya.”

Firstly, they want me to avoid the seem-to-be harmless Cody Sunn. Secondly, I have that thing that makes Cody "dangerous." Thirdly, they want me to not go alone at their concert tomorrow. Fourthly, I should be there at their concert. Lastly, they don't want me to tell anyone.

What next? They don't want me to date anyone?

Firstly, I don't still completely know them. Secondly, they're from the biggest boy-band, One Direction. And lastly, they're famous and they got their own lives.

What are they, my parents? Babysitters? Brothers? No!

So, why did they say all that to me?

I. AM. CONFUSED.

WHY DID THEY LEFT ME LIKE THIS?

Don't try to make stay, or ask if I'm okay. I don't have the answer. (Credits to "Irresistible" by the idiots themselves.)

“Hunter, get in now.” I snapped back to reality and met Ms. Lendree's glowing scarlet eyes.
“Oh. Yeah. Right, ma'am.” I said, getting back to room to continue with our discussion. I sat down on my chair again, my brain filled with questions. And one of them, is what?

“What did they tell you?” Liz whispered. I smiled at her apologetically and whispered, “I can't tell you, Liz. I'm so sorry.” She smiled back, though. “It's alright. You don't have to.”

Thank God for giving me an understanding best friend.

Notes

Zayn Malik, though.
