She's Not Afraid

Chapter 2

I woke up to a shirtless Zayn playing with my hair. 

"Good morning," I said starring into his beautiful brown eyes as he smiled at me.

"You're gorgeous when you sleep," He said kissing my forehead and wrapping his arms around me.

"I know," I said cockily as I pressed my lips against his bare chest and began tracing his arabic tattoo with my index finger. 

"So what do you wanna do today?" Zayn asked in a gentle tone.

"I wanna have a lazy day with you," I said.

Just then his phone rang ruining our moment. 

After a few minutes on the phone Zayn declared that he had to go to rehearsals and apologized. 

"You can come if you want," Zayn offered. 

"Nah," I said declining the offer. 

"That's fine," Zayn said bending down to kiss me on the lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck to make the kiss last as long as possible. It didn't last as long as I wanted but it did last until we were both gasping for air.

"I got to get dressed babe," Zayn whisper. 

"I probably should too," I said leaping off the bed.

"What about your lazy day?"

"Did you seriously think I would have a lazy day without you? Boooooring!" 

I put on my olive romper and stilettos. My hair looked wild but sexy as always.

"So what are you gonna be up to now then," Zayn asked.

"I'm gonna go strut around town, sign a few autographs for my fans & pose for a few pictures for the paparazzi," I said as I applied some lip gloss & smacked my lips together. 

"So we'll catch up after rehearsals then?" Zayn said buttoning up his shirt. 

"Yup," I said kissing him on the cheek. 

We drove together in Zayn's car. Zayn got off at the studio and I took the wheel from that point. Starbucks or Milkshake city? I couldn't decide where to go for breakfast. A milkshake isn't exactly breakfast but it was for me. Plus what better way to start your day than with a milkshake and being surrounded by directioners & my new fan base that love and admire my guts. I sound so cocky right now. I guess I am in a way. I'm just very aware of my talent. 

I pulled up in front of Milkshake City. I wanted to be near my fans and One Direction's fans right now. Even if it meant an extra 30 minutes at the gym, not to mention the horrible stomach ache I was going to suffer from afterwards. 

There weren't many people inside, well duh how could I have been so stupid. Who casually strolls into Milkshake city for a milkshake this early in the morning? I did, but I'm not like everyone else. A couple of girls followed me inside

 "OH MY GOD IT'S RENEE," They squealed in unison. 

I played it cool and acted like I just wanted to order a milkshake. I ordered the One Direction, I was after all a directioner before a became Zayn's girlfriend. 

"OMG I can't believe she just ordered the One Direction milkshake," one of them said to the other in attempt to keeping me from hearing it.

I smiled smugly to myself. I got my milkshake and smiled at the two girls. 

"Hello," I said in a sweet tone. 

"Hiya!" They said at the same time.

"We're huge fans," Said the red headed one with the freckles. 

"Totally, we hope you win the xfactor. You definitely deserve to." Agreed the blond one. 

Way to boost my already too big ego, I thought to myself. 

 "Can we get a picture?" Asked the redhead.

"Of course," I said.

I posed for pictures with the two girls and even followed them on twitter. 

Then I was off on my next mission. I went for a stroll around London letting everyone admire me and letting the paparazzi take as many pictures as possible as I sipped on my One Direction smoothie. I was one of the most publicized contestant on the xfactor and I was going to keep it that way until I won.

Around noon I got a call from zayn asking me to drop by the studio. We were going to grab lunch with the rest of the crew. 

Zayn took the wheel when I arrived at the studio. Unlike me, Zayn hated the paparazzi, and hated every aspect of his life publicized. I didn't enjoy every aspect of my life being publicized either. I only got what I wanted to be publicized to be publicized. I was good at that. Call me manipulative if you want. That's what I am in a way. 

We had lunch at Nandos which was paid for by Niall with his Nandos black card. Nandos is holy to Niall. We got a table at the back away from windows because the only thing bigger than me in England right now was One Direction and if those girls saw one direction in Nandos best believe it would fill up in a matter of seconds.

I casually updated my twitter. 

"You'd better not be tweeting about where we're eating," Louis said. 

"Maybe I am," I smirked.

"You're such a fame whore," Louis said making me roll my eyes at him.

"Only stating the facts," Louis said in a sassy tone.

I took a picture of my lunch and decided to instagram it for my fans later. I always snapped a picture of the lads and a third picture of me and Zayn looking cute. 

"You're coming with me to Bradford tonight right?" Zayn asked me.

"We're doing a performance at Leicester Square tonight," Liam reminded him.

"Oh right," Zayn said. "Tomorrow then?" 

"I have rehearsals," I told him. "Why don't you just go alone?"

"She has a point," Said Harry.

"I mean pretty soon you'll be going on tour and I need to prepare for the finale. I don't wanna hold you back from hanging out with your family." I added. 

"Alright," Zayn said pecking me on the cheek. 

One Direction was going on tour with Little Mix to my home country, the United States of America. After the xfactor finale I was going to meet them there so I could promote myself. This week was the week of the finale and right after that I was going to take the next plane to the USA and live it up. Promoting myself, spending time with my boyfriend and partying. 

I uploaded the instagram pictures as soon as we stepped foot out of Nandos and into our cars. I always tweeted about the wonderful lunch we just had at Nandos. As the fangirls retweeted me and liked my picture like crazy me and Zayn were on our way back to his place to finally have that lazy day together, even though it was only going to last until tonight when he'd be off to perform at Leicester Square with the boys.
