I'd Dye For You || m.c.

Chapter 20

Zoë's POV

Recap
________________

"Oh, um thank y-........Oh my god." I say, shocked by who he was.

"Hey Zee."
________________

"Zayn?" I ask, excitedly.

"Zoë?" He says mocking my excitement.

I bolt to him and embrace him in a huge hug.

"Oh my god! I haven't seen you since high school. How are you?" I ask, releasing him from my death grip.

"I've been so-so. Missing you a lot since you've moved away. But I don't think that'll be happening much more." He says mysteriously.

"What do you mean?" I ask muddled.

"I'm moving to Sydney!" Zayn explains tempestuously.

"Oh my god really! That's amazing Zayn!!!" I congratulate him.

"Yeah, I'm moving in with this guy named Liam. He used to be a hairdresser or something but now he's a nursing assistant. He worked on his medical degree while paying off his student loans as a hairdresser."

Liam.....Why does that sound familiar?

"Which hospital does he work at?" I ask trying to figure out how I know him.

"Um Sydney Central Hospital I think." Zayn says, scratching the back of his head.

Ohhhh now I got it. That was the nurse Michael went all wacko on.

"Michael?" Zayn asks.

Oh god I was thinking out loud.

"Yeah you were."

Stop!

"Go."

"You really are exactly the same aren't you? Now I see why I liked you." I say poking his chest.

"Wanna take a walk? I can show you some more reasons why you liked me." Zayn says suggestively, winking one of his beautiful coffee colored eyes.

Damn I remember why I fell for him now.

"Sure Zaynie." I accept, hooking my arm with his.

"Oh we aren't going to bring back the old nicknames are we?" He groans.

"Sorry buddy, but you did it first. Did you know that Calum tries to call me Zee? I don't let him, that's only what you call me." I say, as he begins leading us down the pier to where there were less people.

"Really? Well at least you remembered me." He says, looking of at the distant waves.

"Remember you? I could never forget you Zayn." I say, looking up to him.

He looks down at me, since he was a good foot taller than me, and smiles warmly at me. I smile back and lean my head against his arm.

We eventually reach the end of the dock where the pier meets the ocean. There isn't anyone down here since the sun has started to get lower and lower in the sky.

"Wow." I say looking at the bright pink and orange colors covering the sky. Sunsets really were a miracle from above. How can one thing be so beautiful?

"Yeah, it's glorious isn't it?" Zayn adds.

"Mhm." I hum in reply.

"Like you." He states, turning towards me.

I turn to him and look straight into his eyes. They were so warm and looked so comforting. I really have missed him.

"Zoë, did you know that before I met you I never knew what it was like to smile for no reason? You're gorgeous."

Flashback

"Why are you so nice to me?" I ask seriously.

"What do you mean?" He asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Why aren't you like the rest of the people in this god awful school who despise me and think I'm some sort of disease that needs to be quarantined." I elaborate.

"Because, for one, I'm not like the rest of the dicks in this school. And two, you're not a disease." He says, lightly grabbing my wrists, pulling me closer.

"You're gorgeous." He says, as he leans in.

"You're gorgeous."

I can't help the smile that has crept onto my face as I step closer to him. I grab ahold of both of his hands and begin to swing them back and forth. He leans down and rests his forehead against mine. We stand like this for a few seconds before we both pull our heads back and look deep into each other's eyes.

"You're wonderful." I say as I grab him roughly and slam my lips onto his.

He responds almost immediately and begins kissing me back, equally as rough. His hands slide down to my waist as mine tangle into his hair. I feel his tongue sweep against my bottom lip, and I easily give in and let him explore my mouth. The kiss keeps getting more and more heated as we keep going. I never wanted it to end, even though I was running out of oxygen. Finally we had to break apart to get some air before one of us turned blue and died.

Panting and exhausted, we stood there with out foreheads pressed up against one another's.

"I've missed you so much Zaynie." I whisper.

"I've missed you more Zee." He whispers back.

"Do you have a hotel here or something?" I ask, wanting to get out of here before it gets dark.

"Yeah I do, it's just up there. Are you staying in a hotel, too?"

"No I'm staying with some friends." I say, remembering Michael.

"Do you want me to walk you back there?" Zayn asks.

"No, no, no. I want to catch up more. I haven't seen you in 2 years. I'm sure they'll be fine without me for one night. Let's go back to yours." I suggest, not wanting questions from everyone about Zayn right now.

"Alright, let's go then." Zayn says, holding out his arm for me.

"Let's." I say fancily, as we begin our walk back to his hotel room.

How do you think Michael is going to react?
