“ZAYN!”  You frantically shouted, hoping through the kitchen trying to put your shoes on.

“WHAT?” He shouts back at you from down the hall as continue to pull open all the drawers and cupboards, searching in a panic.

“WHERE ARE MY EARRINGS?!” you question; now tearing through the coat closet.

“WHAT ONES?”

“THE CIRCLY-OVALY-ISH ONES, WITH THE PEARLS IN THE MIDDLE. THEY’RE THE ONES YOU GOT ME FOR CHRISTMAS LAST YEAR!”

“TAMMY, THEY’RE DOWN HERE.”

Quickly running down the short hallway to the bedroom, you walk in and Zayn immediately hands you the earrings you were looking for. You go into the bathroom to put them on and spray a bit of perfume. Going back to the bedroom, you go to the dresser, putting on the last of your accessories.

“We’re going to be late, babe.” Zayn hurries.

“I know, I’m ready… just one last thing.” You reply, walking over to Zayn and tying his tie for him. Once you were done, he quickly spun you around and did up the back of your dress for you.

“Ready?” he smiles gorgeously.

“Ready.”

Even after two years together, Zayn’s smile still made your heart flutter. It seemed like no matter how many times a day he smiled at you, you would still swoon just as hard each time. Half the time he would do it on purpose, just to tease, but you didn’t care because it was your favourite thing about him.

There’s a knock on the apartment door and Zayn goes to answer it while you get on your coat. Grabbing his from where he left it on the bed, you head to the entry way to find Zayn chatting with Louis. They both smile when they see you coming.

“Jeez Tammy, you look great and all… but you’re making us late, woman!” Louis teases.

“Sorry Lou! I couldn’t find my earrings. Zayn took just as long.” You winked, while handing Zayn his jacket.

“Yeah, yeah.” Zayn rolls his eyes before pressing a sweet kiss to your cheek and ushering the three of you out the door.

The boys had recently won an award for their newest single, so all of you and all their families, and management were going to a large celebratory party. Zayn had taken you to lots of these big types of parties over the years but you were most excited because it was to celebrate with friends and family, and was going to be a really good time.

You, Zayn, and Louis got downstairs to the limousine and all the boys teased you guys for running late as well. You and Zayn were, without fail, always the ones that were late. The boys used to make bets on it… but stopped because it was pointless.

You arrived at the event and were glad to see that it was pretty quiet. There was no red carpet or anything, and only a few fans were standing outside the building. The guys stopped for a few minutes to sign autographs and take pictures. Some of the fans even talked to you, telling your how beautiful you looked in your dress and how happy they were for you and Zayn.

You used to get major hate for being with Zayn, but the fans had grown to love you and accept you. In all honestly they were pretty great, once you got past their crazy-psycho-defensive-stalker-fan shell.

Dinner was lovely, and it was really great to see everyone. Being with the boys, you quickly grew to know everyone’s families and even considered them your own. You all chatted, and danced, and laughed the night away.

It was the end of the night and all the boys were giving their individual speeches.

“…and we couldn’t have done it without all of your love and support with us along the way. Having all of you here tonight is just as much an honour as it was to win this award.” Niall finished, raising his to a toast.

“Now, I think it’s my man Zayn’s turn… so ‘ere you go buddy.” He said with a slight drunken-Irish slur, stepping down and back over to the table.

Zayn gave you a nervous look, before pecking your cheek and heading up to the stage.

“These past few years have been indescribable. I could have never pictured that I would be giving a speech because we won this award. It is amazing, really! All the music, and the travel, and the shows… it has really been enough to last a life time. The best thing though… is the love we receive. Our family and out fans are so dedicated, never faltering, and they have loved us more than imaginable. There’s another kind of love, though, that I have had luck to receive and too feel. And that’s Tammy.”

Zayn stepped of the stage, microphone still in hand and made his way back over to you, standing in front of you.

“This love,” he continued “is compassionate. It’s tender, fun, beautiful, and perfect. Tammy, the love we share has, by far, been the best thing I have gotten out of these past few years. From the highs and the lows… you have always been there, dedicated, never faltering. Lately,” he paused, taking a breath “Your love something I’ve come to realize that I couldn’t do without. Right now, if all of this were to be stripped away, to disappear… the thing I would miss most would be you. Us. That is the one thing that I will need forever. You’re something I can’t do without."

"Tammy, I’m asking for you hand because the thing I treasure the most out of these past few years is you.” Never losing eye contact with you, Zayn slid down onto one knee. Placing a kiss on your forehead, he open up a small, black, velvet covered box. “Will you marry me?”

There had already been tears in your eyes from the other speeches, but this just through you over the edge. Blinded and not being able to talk, you just nod with the biggest smile on your face. You knew exactly how Zayn felt when he said those words because you have felt the same for him since day one.

He smiles, enveloping you in a giant hug while the room burst out into cheers. You kiss him softly. Pulling back, the two of you look into each other’s eyes knowing that your love was going to last forever.
