14: Zayn's Arrival 🧒🏽

This is what happened to Zayn when Nick and Selena were hanging with Fifth Harmony. I just wanted to keep you updated with Zayn (He's also the main character in here)

***************

Zayn

I parked my Mustang and locked it as I walked towards the field. I don't even know why I decided to come to this cheeky event, it's not even my type. 

I did it anyway because I probably wouldn't have anything to do back at home rather than eat, and I don't want that because I am keeping a nice diet of not getting fat.

"Zayn, mate, I didn't know you were coming..." Conner was my friend. (Conner Maynard) He put an arm around my shoulders and guided me into the huge green field. 

I saw so many pretty faces and famous ones, too. I was actually star-struck to see all my inspirations and favorite musicians all in a field. 

"I can introduce you to some girls I know if you like...?"

I turned to Conner and smiled, "Thanks, but I think I'll stay single... the person I love is already with a guy." I mumbled the last bit out, making Conner's eyes widen, "That's such a bummer, dude!"

I nodded, "It is a bummer... What's a bummer?" I said, after realizing that I have never heard the word before.

Conner chuckled and slapped my back, "Don't worry, we'll have time to learn new words, but right now, let's go have some fun and meet new people!"

I laughed at his enthusiasm and followed behind as he walked through the fans, crowd serving.

"So," Conner started as we slowed down to a walk. "Are you going to be performing or guest starring on any of the performances?"

I shook my head no, making Conner nod, "That's okay, you can hang with much more people. It's a better opportunity to know more people without performing."

"Yeah, I think-" I stopped mid-sentence when I notice a group of people walking. There was a mixture of boys and girls. 

I recognized Joe, Camila, Dinah, and Laurel. The two other guy and gal were hidden behind the group, making me unable to see them well.

"Zayn, mate, are you good?" Conner interrupted my staring. I immediately stared at my shoes, seeing that it was untied. I crouched, taking Conner by surprise as he stopped walking, too.

I sighed, "Conner, man, you can go on ahead, I'll catch up with you later. I got to go meet up some friends..."

"Um... alright, I'll see you soon, I guess," Conner patted my back as he jogged off into the crowd.

I looked up, trying to find Joe and the Fifth Harmony girls, but I couldn't, so I'm guessing they're off.

I sighed as I brushed my shirt- it was getting ruffled.

Taking a deep breath, I walked into the crowd of people; I'm not so brave when it comes to crowds. I don't like crowds.

A few girls and guys waved at me and some even patted my shoulder. I got to take a couple of pictures with some fans.

Just when I was about to sign a t-shirt, there was a loud blast of music. It was not regular loud blasts- it was just ear-rape! 

I put a hand to my ear and the fan did the same. She mouthed something to me and I shook my head violently, telling her I didn't get a single word she mouthed. After a few more times of trying and few more times of the music getting louder, the girl gave up.

"Sorry-" a loud voice boomed over the music. I looked up to see a guy standing on the stage with a mic to his lips and a sound-proof earphone over his ears. The sound died down and he chuckled, looking around nervously.

"The music kinda turned on by itself and we couldn't find the input," The guy looked around again and turned back. "Won't happen again, we promise!" 

Everyone returned to their chattering and I turned to the fan, signing her shirt for her. "This is so awesome! Thank you, Zayn, you're a really big part of my life- One Direction was, too!"

I nodded and beamed at her as she walked away from me. I continued to hurry across the field, hoping I don't have to sign too many t-shirts.

When I reached the front, I saw that the maintenance had put up a poster of Nick Jonas's face everywhere. Turns out; he's the opening host of this Coachella.

"Omg, I can't wait," someone squealed as they passed the banner. I sighed as I walked past it. I kinda quickly jogged back to see the time it starts; 5 minutes.

"Well, I could wait," I mumbled to myself, not too loud.
