“Yes, sooner it’s over, the sooner we can go home,” I said with a sigh.
As I passed him, Zak leaned in and whispered close to my ear, “By the way, what are you doing tonight?”
Instantly, my breathing sped up and became shallower as his question penetrated my brain, and I thought I might pass out.
“S-sorry?” I asked, wanting him to say it again so that I could be sure.
Catching hold of my bicep, he gently pulled me to a stop. “What are you doing tonight?”
My head whipped around so I could look at him, and I was faced with sincere blue eyes staring at me while his tongue swept along his plump bottom lip. He didn’t look nervous or unsure, and I would have bet money on the fact that he wasn’t feeling sick.
“Nothing. Well, except for some course work for social care.”
“Do you need to do that tonight?”
Did I? I usually did my work the day it was handed out, but it didn’t mean Ihadto do it then. I shook my head.
“Fancy going out for a Maccies?”
I did, but I knew Dad was making a curry. “My dad has organised dinner.” As soon as I said it, I regretted it. I could have gone and not had a burger. I could have said yes and stuffed myself to the point of feeling sick if it meant spending time with him. I could have asked Dad for a small portion of curry. My shoulders dipped with regret.
He gave me a sexy smirk. “That’s okay, we can just go and get a drink.”
“We can?” I swallowed, conscious that his eyes seemed to be staring at my lips. “Yeah, that sounds good.”
“I’ll pick you up at seven.” Dumbstruck, I nodded, and Zak smiled, giving me a quick wink before walking away.
As Zak sat down next to Liam, resting his arm on the back of the empty chair next to him, it struck me that he had no idea where I lived. Rushing over, I plonked myself down next to him and leaned closer to whisper, seeing as Mr Anderson was clapping his hands for silence.
“You need my address,” I stated.
“No, I don’t,” he whispered back. “I got your address from Liam.”
It was said with such confidence, in that super sexy accent of his, and my nerves kicked in again, realising I needed help from my friends. I was confident in so many ways, but not where Zak Hoyland was concerned, and I wasn’t going to risk missing out on something good.

Did you watch the match earlier? What a bag of wank. We couldn’t score in a titty bar atm.
ZAK
No I didn’t watch it. I saw the result though. Another draw isn’t great.
OSCAR
Hang on! Why didn’t you watch it? Please don’t tell me you’re not supporting City or United? If it’s United you’re dead to me!
ZAK
Lol. No. I had Maddy round. We watched a film.
OSCAR
Back the fuck up. Maddy the girl you’re not sure likes you?
