Zayn's pov:

"Detention, both of you!" Coach yells at Malory and Louis before his eyes move towards Harry, Max and then at me. "All five of you!"

"What did I do?" Max and Harry whine at the same time. The coach walks over to Max, his eyes fixed on Max's as he keeps walking closer to him until he is only an inch apart from him. Coach looks like he is staring right into Max's soul. Max looks completely terrified. Anyone would be. "Okay, coach, detention, all of us." Max nervously mutters and coach steps away from him nodding his head as he walks out of the locker room.

Never have I ever gotten detention in my life. What am I getting myself into?

I probably have a bruise on my face from three of Malory's punches. God, she's like the next Mohammad Ali or Connor McGregor. I don't even want to know from where she learned to fight like that. Harry, on the other hand, is lying on the floor because he got kicked by Louis right in his manhood, 'accidentally'. The only person safe here is Max.

Remind me again, why did Harry and I got beat up in the fight between Louis and Malory? I have no clue.

Thanks to the coach who came rushing in and stopped the fight, otherwise Harry and I wouldn't have been able to walk for days. Call me dramatic but that is actually the case.

"We got detention because of this psycho!" Louis yells, pointing at Malory and I facepalm myself. Malory turns towards him with her eyes knitted together and lips tightly pursed, making me let out a groan because here we go again. Round two.

"Enough! Quiet both of you!" Harry's outburst was not expected but he yells as soon as Malory opened her mouth to say something. Harry pulls both of his hands in front of Malory and Louis on either side as he stands between them. "If anyone of you hits me again or each other, I'm going to get both of your asses suspended!" Harry seems extremely furious and done with both of them as he scolds them.

"Me too, I was also beaten up," I speak up quickly regretting it as everyone including Malory and Harry turns their attention towards me with their eyebrows knitted together.

"Who are you again?" Louis speaks up as he looks at me with a grimace.

"He's Zayn Malik and he's hot unlike you!" The comment quickly rolls off from Malory's mouth as all of the heads now turn towards her. She probably regrets speaking, because it's clear on her face. If we could feel someone else's embarrassment, I'd be doing that right now.

"Um, Malory that wasn't necessary," I quietly mutter beside her and she looks away, pursing her lips together in discomfort.

"Yeah... I know, shut up, it just came out." She whispers in a hushed voice and I step back from her. I shake my head at her in a gesture that I am not saying anything anymore. If the situation wasn't too tight right now, I would have actually thought it was cute of her to act like that.

She glares at Louis one more time before turning around and walking out of the locker room. I quickly follow her from behind and keep calling out her name but she does not stop for once, so I quickly catch her pace and grab her hand, turning her around to face me.

"I said, stop," I speak in a low voice and she glares at me quietly, before her eyes move to my hand on hers which makes me quickly remove it and place my hand on the back of my neck. "Where are you going?" I ask her politely.

"I hate Louis, we're in detention because of him! I'm going to make him pay for that." She states, thumping her leg upside down in frustration.

I raise one of my eyebrows at her words. "Uh, weren't you the one who marched into the boys' locker room and started beating Louis and got all of us into detention?" I make sure to carefully use my words because I don't want to make her angrier, and get her to go on a full-on crazy mode on everyone here including me.

"Yeah, well he started it! And totally deserved the beating!" She exclaims and I try to calm her down by putting both of my hands on her shoulders, carefully. I tell her to take deep breaths and slow down for a moment and tell me what exactly happened that made her so angry.

Malory does as told and relaxes a bit under my touch as I gently rub circles on both of her shoulders. I don't even know what I am doing, it is just happening naturally. To my surprise, it is actually working on Malory.

"So you know the reason now. Can I go and make him pay for what he did?" She says, after explaining to me what Louis did. I wanted to laugh but I actually controlled it and helped her calm down a bit. She looks cute when she is furious.

"If you beating him up wasn't an act of revenge, then what was that?" I ask her in confusion.

"Oh that was a starter, like when you go to a restaurant and they give you starters before the main meal." She states like it is quite obvious and I just look at her in worry. If that was not the main course then what the heck is the main course, what is wrong with this woman?

I come out of my thoughts to see Malory already on her way out, so I run behind her to stop her. "Are you skipping school, Malory Collins?!" I ask in a hushed voice as I walk beside her in worry, she is walking way too fast like she's on a march or something.

"Yes," my eyes widen at her response.

"Have you ever skipped school before? What if you get caught?!" I am flaring my hands everywhere as I try to knock some sense into her. She stops for a moment and looks at me dead in the eyes.

"No, I haven't before, " she states before continuing, "Get out of my way before I kick you down there," she threatens, pointing down to my manhood. I quickly put both of my hands down there and cover it, feeling completely threatened by her. She won't even hesitate before doing that. I already saw what happened to Harry back there, I don't want it to happen to me. I wonder how he would be moving right now.

Malory turns around and begins to walk away without saying anything further, so I let her go. I watch as her figure disappears from the hallway and I purse my lips in frustration because of what I am about to do next. "Screw it," I mumble as I quickly run behind her. Not to stop her but to join her.

God, what is she making me do? The worst part is that she isn't even making me do anything. It's me who does not want to leave her alone in this situation.

I am going to regret this so much.

Malory's POV:

Zayn is probably regretting his decision to join me right now, I can see it on his face. I told him many times to go away and let me do my work alone, but he wouldn't budge. I even threatened to beat him black and blue but nothing bothered him and he decided to stick anyway, making me question his sanity. I can't believe he skipped school for the first time just to help me out.

"Can you explain to me why did we buy so many fish, Malory?" Zayn asks in disgust, carrying a shopping bag full of six stinky fish in his hands. I am so bad, I made him hold that. I don't want to die because of the bad odour getting to my head.

"Because we're taking revenge," I say nonchalantly and he lets out a loud groan, following me behind.

"Whose house is this?"

"Louis',"

"Isn't he at school?" Zayn asks and I nod my head and look over at him, quickly holding back my laugh at his facial expressions. His nose is scrunched up and eyes are squinted because of the smell. He is getting seriously tortured by these stinky fish.

"And his parents are out of town for two days," I inform him as I take out the spare key of Louis' house from my bag.

"How are we going to get insi-"

Before he can even complete his sentence, I open the lock with the key and kick the door wide open, turning around to wink at Zayn who quietly stares at me with his mouth slightly agape in surprise. "I don't even want to know how you got the key," he says, as he shakes his head and I chuckle, walking inside Louis' house with Zayn.

"Harry always has a spare key of Louis' house in our shared car, so I took it on our way here," I explain as I head upstairs to the bedrooms.

"More like stole it," Zayn comments from behind and I just ignore him, walking towards my destination.

I have been to Louis' house many times, thanks to my mother, who is Louis' mum's friend and my brother who is Louis' best friend, so they both have dragged me to his house many times. But I have never been upstairs to any of the bedrooms.

As soon as I open the door of his room, I ready myself to step inside a disastrous boyish room with clothes and snacks lying around the floor but shockingly, I find none. Instead, his room is completely opposite of what I had imagined, it's neat and clean with everything at its proper place. Why the hell is his room so tidy?

It's even tidier than mine.

That's when the realization hits me, "Oh, we're in the wrong room, Zayn!" I quickly say and step back, shutting the door behind me. Zayn raises his eyebrow at me and I gesture him to follow me to our actual destination. "We had walked into his older sister's room, she doesn't live here anymore," I explain it to Zayn and he huffs, still carrying the bag of fish in his hand. Louis is not the only child, he has an elder sister who shifted to The United States for her college. I wish she was the only child of her parents though.

Opening the door of the room next to Louis' sister's, I step inside and let out a loud groan. "Expected," I say, walking inside a place which has currently experienced a tornado. Packets of crisps, socks, converse, PlayStation, a bunch of T-shirts, jeans and what not is scattered all around his room.

"Do you seriously want to mess up this already messed up place?" Zayn questions from the doorway and I pass him a half-smile before grabbing the fish from him and hide two under Louis' bed, one in the empty compartment of his closet, one under his study table and two in his room's balcony.

"God, they stink so bad!" I gag, covering my nose with the palm of my hand.

"Didn't you think that before handing me a bag full of them?!" Zayn exclaims as he glares at me and I awkwardly purse my lips together. I mumble him a sorry and sheepishly smile at him. He might have felt awful, no doubt because he is looking at me like he would kill me. I try to ignore Zayn's glares by giving him toothy smiles, which makes him roll his eyes at me.

Walking over to Louis' study desk, I tear a page from his notebook which is lying there and write a quick note on it.

Enjoy your seafood, Lewis. ;)
-From your one and only.

"Are we done here?" Zayn asks from behind and I place the note above Louis' notebook so he can find it easily. I turn around to face Zayn and grab a glue from my pocket, walking over to the bedroom door where he is leaned on.

"Just one more thing," I say before putting some glue in his room's lock and shutting the door behind me as I walk out of Louis' house with a proud grin on my face.

"You're evil, you know that?" Zayn chuckles, shaking his head at me and I smile shrugging my shoulders before getting inside my car along with Zayn by my side.

"He messed up with the wrong person," I say, looking over at Zayn with a chuckle.

He shakes his head, a smile coming over his face. "Never had I ever imagined my first time skipping the school would be to help Malory Collins piss off someone," he laughs as his eyes meet mine, a smile forms on my lips due to his words.

"Never had I ever imagined Zayn Malik would be skipping school with me for the first time," his smile grows as he looks at me. I never knew I'd actually enjoy doing something crazy like this with someone else, especially Zayn. I'm more of a person who likes to do all her experiments alone. He seems more of a person to stay in his comfort zone and not go near things which smell trouble. I guess he went a little wrong there when he first walked up to me.

"Strangely, it felt good. It was something exciting and scary which made me feel like a badass." He grins at me, looking proud as if he had achieved something big, which makes me lightly laugh at him. He strangely seems cute to me right now or maybe the smell of the fish got to my head way too much.

"Then I guess I am turning you into a bad boy,"
