Something Beautiful

Chapter Twelve

ZAYNS POV

This was not happening. In two days I was supposed to ask Delani to finally be mine. But that it wasn't looking like it was going to happen. I had just gotten the call that would ruin everything. It was my sister. while traveling she got into a horrible plane crash and she was one of the three survivers. But she was In critical condition. I was going to fly out tomorrow. Delani was important, but if my sister was going to die, it was worth living in America for a while. I needed to start packing now. I texted Delani and asked if she could come over. She replied really quick to my luck, she was on her way. It only took her fifteen minutes to get to the boat. I heard her get on the boat and ran into the room to meet her

"Zayn what happened?!"

I couldn't get any words out and she knew it was bad. She came over and hugged me. I explained to her what happened and told her I'd be living there for a while. I could tell she was getting emotional too, we were best friends and now we were being seperated just like that.

"Zayn i-im so sorry." She said between tears.

"Delani don't cry I hate it when you're sad." I said.

She laughed and wiped her tears.

"I'll take you to the airport tommorow, and I'll sleep over tonight. We can talk on the phone and Skype and. You'll be back before we know it." She comforted me.

I nodded and leaned my head on her shoulder.

In the car it was silent. Juliet was driving and me and Delani sat in the back. But silence was just us. It was also typical for us to realize that it was awkward so wed laugh. I didn't want to leave her, even if she wasn't mine. When I get back I was going to ask her to be my girlfriend, and then shed possibly say yes and shed be my princess and I could hold her hand and kiss her nose. I loved my fantasies. She was what I dreamed about at night and thought about during the day, and one day maybe shed think a out me.

"Were here" she tapped my shoulder.

We grabbed my bags and hooked everything up. I had Juliet and Delani at my sides. I was going to miss my friends, even though it wasn't going to be that long. We stopped at my gate. This was going to be the last time I saw her for a while, or at least in person. I gave Juliet a hug and whispered in her ear that she take care of Delani for me. She nodded and laughed. I walked over to Delani. She looked beautiful in her t shirt and shorts, hair in a side braid, making her look casual but cute. I loved how she could pull off anything. Just another special thing about her. She looked into my eyes.

"I'm going to miss you." She giggled.

I'm going to miss you too." I smiled.

We stared at each other for a few seconds. I felt a wave of confidence rush over me. Her eyes sparkeled cause of the tears that covered them. That's when it slept out, true but an accident. I said it.

"I love you Delani." I said breaking the silence. I heard Juliet gasp to the side.

"Hahaha I love you too Zayn" she laughed.

"I mean it though. I always have and I always will. I'll be back." I was on a roll. But what I did next I didn't expect. I leaned in and pressed my lips to hers. It lasted for a few seconds and then I pulled away. When I looked into her eyes again I saw sheer confusion. I was embarrassed. I awkwardly nodded and turned to my gate. I boarded without a word to her. What had I done.
