             “Are we ready to go?” Me and Zayn asked at the same time. “Yea if you’re ready to go we are” Danielle softly replied.  There were 2 black cars waiting outside our big London house, one could fit 4 people and the other one could fit 5. Me and Zayn went with Briar and Niall. Lou, El, Liam, Danielle and Harry all went together in the other car. It was about an hour ride because we lived out of the city a bit so the press wouldn’t bother us as much as they would’ve in the city, we were all ok with that because when we traveled together we always managed to keep busy and the time just flew by.

                “Remember when I first told you that I loved you?” Zayn asked me.  “ Yeah I was such a wreck that night!” I replied. 

“No you weren’t, you were just having a rough time and I understood that. You know I always think your beautiful, no matter what you look like or if your crying.” 

“Shanks babe I love you, I’m glad we met.”

“I love you to!  Did I tell you that you look beautiful yet tonight?” He looked at me worryingly

“Not yet” I said teasingly

“Well hun let me tell you that you look amazing in that dress and your scars are the most beautiful scars I have ever seen. Nobody will ever compare to you!”

Before I could even answer to what Zayn said Niall and Briar looked at each other than us on the other side of the car.  “Awwww! NOW KISS!!” they both said at the exact same time that it actually was scary.  I pulled Zayn in to me and I kissed him, he kissed me back we both smiled.   It’s true what they say when you smile when your kissing someone it means you are comfortable with them.

It was finally 9 o’clock when we pulled up just in time for our reservations.  “Hey guys are you ok if you stay in the car for like 5 minutes?” Niall’s asked in his irish accent as he got out of the car with Briar.  Zayn just looked at me confused and I gave him the same look.  I remember when a year ago I looked in to his deep brown eyes and fell in love.  Five minutes finally passed and the driver which happened to be Paul got out of the front seat and opened the door for Zayn and I.  “Thanks man” Zayn said.  Zayn grabbed my hand and we walked slowly in the light snow in to the restaurant. Which was empty I thought it was kind of weird, I than remembered that the public doesn’t know about us yet. 

                The boys told Zayn it would be a good idea to keep me and him a secret so I wouldn’t get hurt by Directioners, even though I was one myself but I do know how wild we can be so it is for the best. 

                “HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARLEY WE LOVE YOU!!” everyone screamed and ran up and gave me a hug.  “Group hug!!!”  Louis yelled, he enforced it and I was smiling and laughing.  We all sat down Briar and Zayn sat next to me. These two people mean the world to me and I don’t think I would be alive today if it wasn’t for the love of my life and my best friend.  I mean I love everyone else but those two saved my life. 

                The waitress came over and took our drink orders, when she saw the boys she went in to instant fan girl mode.  “Holy balls y-y-your One Direction! You’re the girlfriends! Omg!”  She gave me and Briar a dirty look “and who are you guys?”  She said snarly.  I opened my mouth and Harry looked at her and said “Does it matter to you? No. Ok now we’ll have nine Pepsis please!”  The waitress just stopped smiling and went back to work. 

“Thanks Hazza, I don’t think I would’ve been able to explain it.”

“Your welcome Marley, anything for the birthday girl!”

                “Doesn’t anyone remember one of the other reasons we came here tonight?!” Eleanor asked the table.  We all looked around because we were confused a bit, since we were all wrapped up in the moment. Briar finally clued in and remembered that me and Zayn were celebrating our one year anniversary. “HAPPY ONE YEAR GUYS!” Briar screamed out of the silence.

“Happy one year babe” Zayn said

“Happy one year!” I replied back to him lost in his facial features.

“KISS, KISS, KISS, KISS” chanted everyone.  Zayn grabbed my face and kissed me with as much passion as he does when he performs for thousands and thousands of fans.  Just as that moment the waitress walked in and dropped the tray of Pepsi that we all really wanted.  “bu-bu-but?” She asked confused.  Harry, Niall, Louis and Liam all walked up to her gave her 100 pounds, “Don’t tell the press or any of your friends or family, no one do you hear me?  We will give you backstage passes, and signed merch.” Said Liam as he is the most sternest.  At this point me and Zayn looked across the room concerned.  “Whats going on?” I whisper to Briar.  “The boys are telling her not to tell anyone about you and Zayn.” Briar said quietly back to me.
