Heartbreak [zjm]

19. Spring Break

Spring Break came pretty soon and while I failed to mention it to Zayn, he was understanding.

"Belle!" Trisha exclaimed when I walked through their front door.

"We haven't talked in so long, I'm sorry, I've been busy," I sighed.

"It's alright love, Waliyha had been beginning to believe Zayn ran you off," she laughed and hugged her son.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"On a trip with her friends, she should be back tonight, if you're willing to stay that long."

"I'll ask Melissa, but I'm sure I can," I smiled at her and Mark came walking in.

"Belle, always great to see you," Mark hugged me.

"Would you like some tea?" Trisha offered.

"Yes please."

To: Melissa

Is it alright if I get home late tonight? I'm staying with Zayn and his family x

From: Melissa

That's alright, Kacin and I are going to get home at 8.

"Melissa, said it was alright," I spoke up as Trisha boiled some tea water for me. We sat down on the couch for a while and all talked.

"Belle needs an internship," Zayn mentioned and I shook my head at him.

"You guys don't have to intern me."

"That would be lovely!" Trisha clapped her hands and Mark smiled at me.

"It will be fine, I just need to get your transcript and approve by the school. Also an application would be nice."

Around 6, Waliyha came strutting through the front door. She looked a little bit more mature, but still the same girl I had known.

"Belle!" She screamed and jumped into my arms. "I was beginning to think you and Zayn broke up."

We caught up and being the great little sister she was, told the most embarrassing stories of Zayn ever.

That's when Trisha decided to get the photo album out of Zayn. He squeezed my hand tightly and calmly smiled at his mother.

This was a normal thing to do, which he probably didn't know.

Looking through his baby pictures, he had a wonderful childhood filled with crayons and mischief.

"I was a lovely child," he joked.

"I am really happy with the way he turned out, Belle. You should really consider the intern offer," Trisha smiled.

I wanted to accept the offer and hand in an application, but if Zayn and I broke up what would happen?

"I will consider it."

The rest of the night was filled with stories about Zayn's childhood and lovely tea made by Trisha.

"I would love to stay for the rest of the night, but Melissa is expecting me home," I smiled.

Zayn drove me home and went inside to see Melissa and Kacin.

"I think Belle should definitely intern at our business, it would interesting."

"It sounds like a great idea!" Melissa cheered.

Zayn parted his way and when I closed the door Melissa threw a fit.

"Are you kidding me? Trisha and Mark want you at their office and you're considering saying no?"
