The Creep Around the Block

The thunder roared outside as Hurricane Sophia came. Trees were blowing everywhere. Other than Zayn and I, no one here is afraid of thunder or hurricanes. Danielle and Tanner didn't even give a fuck.

I was crouched in the corner by the patio door, shivering quite a bit. I wasn't cold, just scared as fuck. Meanwhile, Zayn was laying on the floor by the kitchen, under the blanket.

I could bluntly make out Harry's voice. "I can't stand to see them like this. They should at least be hiding together."

"Yea, they shouldn't be alone, so while we do whatever, they can be together." An Irish voice was heard.

"Sam? Zayn?" Kaitlynn sounded out.

I looked up, still crying.

"You guys wanna go stay close together?" Gemma awkwardly said, making hand gestures.

I looked over to Zayn. He had bloodshot eyes and eyeliner running down his face.

I waited til he gave me the look, then nodded. I slowly crawled over to him, still crying as thunder cracked through the dark sky.

When I arrived next to him, he took the blanket and wrapped it on me. I felt a little shocked and jerked away a little.

"What's wrong?" Zayn asked, still sniffling. It hurt to see him like this. But I probably looked the same.

"I'm upset with you." I didn't say that until after everyone's eyes averted away from us.

"For getting Jess pregnant?" He snorted.

"No, you pickle head. For telling Harry I kissed you purposely." I laughed and smacked the back of his head.

"Ow! And I'm really sorry for that. I was in... like with you and I didn't like the fact that you were together." He sniffled again.

"Are you still in like with me?" I asked.

"Maybe..." he mumbled. I laughed.

"But you have a child to Jess." I continued to cry, but I wasn't actually bawling.

"Wanna hear a secret? Jessica got an abortion the day she found out. And we aren't together. She's trying to make Harry jealous." He still had fear tears coming out, but he made no sounds.

"What?! Really?!" I shouted.

"Shh! I shouldn't have told you. Jess is gonna kill me. But rumor also has it that Harry doesn't even love you. That's what Jess told me." He sighed.

"I know he loves me. But lately, I question. When we were kissing in the rain, it seemed like he was kissing me with lust. I just hope that we don't break up. What would the twins do?" I layed my head on his chest.

"Well, I don't know. You get the twins and Tanner. Or Harry get the twins and you get Tanner. Or he gets Tanner. Or you get Tanner and a twin, and Harry gets a twin. Or you just keep them all and he visits with whoever you end up with." He smiled sadly.

Wow. Well then. That escalated quickly.

"But he loves me. So no need for that." I sadly smiled back.

A loud crack of thunder sounded through the house. I jumped into Zayn's lap. Absolutely no idea how, but it happened. I was bawling now. I hate the sound of it. It sounds like God punishing someone for some reason.

I turned and looked at Zayn. His face was soaked, and covered with black eyeliner.

"Zayn, why do you wear eyeliner?" I laughed, trying to take my mind off the hurricanes.

"Because I feel like it... I don't know to be honest." He hugged me tighter when a big gust of wind went by.

"Why are you scared of hurricanes?" I asked.

"Just think... if you were standing out there when it started, you'd be in the ocean when it ended." He said.

"Gee thanks." I poked his face.

You know what, sitting here won't do shit. Zayn and I need to move a little.

"Zayn, let's go sit somewhere else. On the couches?" I asked.

"Sure." With that, we stood. But when I went to take a step, Zayn swooped down and picked me up.

"Zayn!" I laughed.

He carried me, and the blanket, to the couch. We recieved weird looks from everyone.

"You love your tattoos?" Julia asked. I nodded.

"We all fucking match!" Perrie spazzed out.

Zayn and I sat side by side, the blanket over both of us.

"Give meh my baby!!!" I got a weird accent when I said it, but oh well.

Niall handed him over to me, and I tickled his tummy. I didn't make those cliche 'coochie coochie coo' noises though.

"So the wedding." Kaitlynn said out of nowhere. She's so fucking concerned.

Harry coughed for a second, then said, "I think we need to put it off until July. Dani and Tanner might be able to walk by then. But the twins will be almost born..."

"How about May?" Lou asked.

"That's still a bit too far along. April?" I said.

"Works. When the storms over, we'll go Christmas shopping, then we'll get stuff ready for the wedding." Gemma spoke up.

"Alrighty. No, screw that, first thing we do is go down to that news station and find out who the creep is." Liam said.

"One thing, is it a boy? Because the guy in the alley the night we met Jess was the creep. That's what he told us." Harry made a good point.

"Maybe he was working for the creep." Julia had one of those 'AHA!' moments.

"Sam! What did the creep look like in your dreams?" Louis pointed at me.

"He never had a face. I don't even know if he's a boy or not." I rubbed my face with my hands.

"Well, boy or not, the news place will know who it is. Back to the wedding. April, we'll have a professional plan it, outdoors, all that stuff." Kaitlynn got overjoyed.

"Well I just want to thank you guys for taking our minds off the hurricane. It means a lot." Zayn smiled. I looked at him and smiled.

"It's nice to see you aren't pissy with Zayn." Harry laughed. I kept thinking of what Zayn said.

"Yea. But I'm really nervous. Christmas, Wedding, two pregnant chicks. This is a really busy year." I sighed, nuzzling into Zayn's chest.

As if on cue, all the lights in the house went out at the same time.

I waited a couple moments before saying, "Well this sucks."

"Agreed." Everyone said together.

I set down the last lit candle on the coffee table. Thank god Dani and Tanner were asleep. They'd be just as freaked out as me.

"Done. And done. Now what?" Liam asked, I could bluntly see everyone was looking at Zayn and I, huddled on the couch.

"Well, I'm gonna go cry in the corner again. I don't know what you guys are gonna do." I spoke up and stood.

"No," Zayn pulled me down by my waist. "You're gonna stay here with me, because if you don't, I'll get scared."

"Fine!" I whined.

Everyone sat down in a circle, and Louis spoke up, "Would you rather?"

"Louis, you're so childish." Gemma laughed.

"Liam, would you rather shag Perrie right now, or go back in time amd change something?" Zayn asked from next to me.

"Go back in time. I get to shag Perrie whenever I want." He laughed.

"What would you change?" Zayn asked.

"I would change the day we all fucked up our lives and accidentally walked into the alley with HIM." Liam sighed.

"Smart, Liam, ask someone." Zayn spoke.

"Gemma, would you rather marry Louis or Niall, and Harry and Sam aren't getting married, so you wouldn't be related."

"Simple. Marry Niall. Sam and I would be sisters in law, and Niall and Harry would be brothers in law." She shrugged. "Julia would you rather have never met anyone here, and be a millionaire, or have met everyone and never give tattoos?"

"Never give tattoos." She looked shocked that Gemma would even ask something like that, "Sam, would you rather shag Harry and marry Zayn, or marry Harry and shag Zayn?"

"Well," I raised an eyebrow, "I don't know what Zayn's like in bed..."

"Well, he's better than Harry in bed. That's for sure." Jess got into the conversation.

"Well damn. I guess shag Zayn, marry Harry." I laughed. I looked at Harry. He was pouting like a little 5 year old.

"Sorry babe." I laughed. "Okay, Zayn, would you rather..."

I thought of something we talked about earlier.

"... have a kid to Jess or tell everyone the truth?"

"Uhh, tell them the truth." He said nervously.

"What truth?" Kaitlynn asked.

"Nothing." Zayn mumbled. "Harry, would you rather marry Sammy or tell the truth?"

"What truth?" I asked.

"Nothing!" Harry got defensive, "Marry Sam."

"Alright, before shit gets weird, let's just all do something else." Julia nervously laughed.

"I agree. Let's just all get some sleep." Perrie nuzzled into Liam's chest on the couch.

Harry walked into the bedroom, Niall and Julia went to a couch, gemma layed on the floor, Louis and Kaitlynn layed on the floor. Zayn and I stayed where we were. I didn't plan on getting any sleep tonight.

"You know, someone can have the guest room." I laughed. Everyone jumped up at the same time.

"Louis and Kaitlynn can take it." Niall gave up.

Good for him.

Zayn and I were still up at 2 in the morning.

"Zayn?" I asked tiredly.

A crack of thunder went through the room, and I jumped. Zayn quickly wrapped his arms around me.

"Don't worry, I got you." He whispered in my ear. When I finally calmed down, he said, "Yea?"

I said, "What is the truth you and Harry were talking about?"

He sighed, rubbing his back into my shoulder.

"Nothing love. Just stuff from when we were younger." "Alright. Well, can you help me sleep?" I asked, battling my eyelashes.

He yawned and rubbed his face, "How?"

"Play with my hair, rub my back, I don't know. I just can't sleep."

As if planned, a gust of wind blew through an open the house and blew out all the candles in the living room. Shit, we must've left a window open!

"Zayn, we left a window open. Will you help me find it?" I batted my eyelashes again.

He simply grunted in response and I stood. He did the same and we startedx the search.

We looked around the living room before walking into the kitchen.

The window above the stove was wide open. When did I open that?

Zayn and I slumped back to the living room after shutting the window. I plopped onto the couch, and Zayn layed down. I layed on top of him, and he played with my hair.

I felt the winds die down around us. The thunder stopped. We survived the hurricane.

Just as the thought entered my mind, I fell asleep
