One night stand-Zayn Malik

Chapter 46-One step closer.

" Alright, the beers are in ice buckets, birthday greetings are hanging from the wall, snacks or on the table aaaand" Erica ran to the kitchen and came back holding a champagne bottle. " This one is waiting"

I fixed my black dress as I smiled to Erica who had been helping me decorate a little for Harry's birthday.

" All we need now is the birthday boy and guests" She said and sat down on the chair to get a little rest. She had been looking forward to this since Zayn talked to her about it. Me on the other hand was nervous. Zayn was at the airport getting Niall and I hadn't seen the boys for a long time, accept when I met Harry on new years.

" You alright?" Erica asked when she saw how distance I was. I looked at her and opened my mouth but closed it again.

" This is going to be fun, don't worry" She stood up and walked to me to give me one of her best hugs. They were comforting and she made me relax.

" You are amazing, Harry is going to love this" I said and Erica couldn't help but flush. The doorbell rang and the first guests were right on time.

More people kept coming with every minuet and before we knew it only an hour was left of Harry's birthday and the flat was almost full. I looked around hoping to see Zayn but they weren't here yet. Where were they?

" HEY" I heard shouted in the door and out of the elevator walked five boys and two girls.

I took a deep breath before I walked confident to them.

" Tara" Harry's face lightened up as walked to him and waved. I wrapped my hands around his neck and kissed him on the cheek.

" Happy birthday ! " I felt all of the boys eyes on me as I wished Harry a happy birthday, except Niall's who was just looking around.

" Thank you so much, and wow this is really a party" He said and left out a little laugh.

" I'm sorry I took over and invited some people" I didn't notice that Erica was standing behind me. Harry took her hand and kissed it lightly.

" Thank you love" He smiled and I heard Erica gasp. She really wasn't smooth but that made her so cute.

Harry was dragged into hugs and kisses but the boys stood still.

" So nice to see you again" Liam said as he kissed me lightly on the cheek without letting his girlfriends hand go. " This is Sophia, Sophia this is Tara, she used to tour with us, in fact she designed our clothes for the tour and owns Richi Dúrier"

I smiled kindly to Liam for introducing me so well but my eyes got wider as I looked at Sophia.

" Oh my god, I love everything you design ! " Her jaw seemed to have dropped at first but when she started talking her eyes lightened up and a big smile grew on her lips. " Such an honour to meet you" She offered me her hand.

I looked at Liam who smiled and rolled his eyes. " You too ! So lovely to meet someone who appreciated your work" I was speechless. Somehow it was different to hear something like this from someone you wanted to get to know better than in the papers after fashion week.

" I just love your style and everything" She said and I couldn't help but blush.

" I would be happy to give you a dress when the boys get their next Brit Award"

Sophia left out a little high pitched noise as she buried her face in her hands. Everyone left out a laugh and Liam wrapped his hands around her.

" As you see she is used to hang out with celebs" Louis said and Sophia hit him loose in the shoulder as a joke.
