Something Beautiful

Chapter six

I crept onto the boat making sure not to wake Zayn and Don. I had been out late from my "date" with Hayden. He took me out to a nice Italian reastraunt and taught me how to slow dance. It was so romantic and perfect and wonderful and ahhhh. Magical. Hayden treated me different than most guys. He cared for me and made sure he was gentle when he held my hand. He didn't drag me or yell at me. He was a true gentleman.

I walked into Zayns room and saw he had laid a t shirt and sweatpants out on the bunk for me. How thoughtful. I went to the bathroom to change, thinking about how perfect everything was right now. I was humming the song Zayn was humming earlier. But I didn't know it. Once I was changed I went back to the room and got into my bunk. I laid there for a minute and smiled to myself. Could he be the one. I didn't count on it. I imagined us growing up and getting married at a nice church then having kids who grew up successful and then wed grow old together and remember this date.

"How was your date" I heard snapping me out of my fantasy. I didn't know he was awake... Could he sense my happiness?

"Perfect" I responded

"Oh. That's good" he said.

"Mhmm. Thank you for taking me out today Zayn. I had a lot of fun."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it" he said. And with that we both drifted off into sleep.

ZAYNS POV

She went out with Hayden yesterday. I was happy for her. She seemed to really like him. I'm glad I introduced her to him. They look good together. I climbed the ladder to the top of the boat where she looked out to the ocean. Her long dark brown waves flowing in the wind. She was wearing one of the shirts I bought her. It was blue and hugged her figure perfectly. It looked good on her. I went up to her and smiled.

"Boo" I laughed

She jumped at my out burst and giggled.

"Hi Zayn" she grinned.

She had a beautiful smile.

DELANIS POV

We stared at each other for a while. I couldn't help myself from laughing. Once we stopped, we went down to the docks and hung our feet. It was so nice outside today. He started humming... It was a different song. But I knew this song well.

"Forever can never be long enough for me. To feel like I've had long enough with you. Together can never be close enough to me. Forget the world now we won't let them see. But there's one thing left to do."

He sang. I decided to join in. It was a love song, but it didn't feel awkward. He had a beautiful voice.

"Maaaaaaaaaarrrry me. Today and everyday. Marrrrrrry me. If I ever get the nerve to say hello in this cafe say you will. Ooooohoooooh. Say you will. Oohooh."

We sang the rest of the song. His voice was beautiful. The kind of voice you'd fall in love with.

"You have a beautiful voice, Delani." He complimemted .

I blushed in response.

ZAYNS POV

She had the voice of an angel. She sang with passion and joy. She crinkeled her nose every time she missed a beat and we laughed. We sat there and talked for hours on hours. I found out how she ended up here. What an asshole. When I found out there were 3. It made me realize how strong yet delicate she was. The way she talked about her past with confidence and made it seem like it was no big deal. I started to notice the color of her eyes. Rich yet bright. She had perfect bone structure and her face was beautiful even though her makeup had come off when she cried just nights ago. I wanted to hold her. I wanted to protect her and make her happy. I wanted her to be mine. But her heart belonged to Hayden. And it was all my fault.
