Talking To The Moon [z.m.]

33: Chains

Faith's POV

The ride to Uni was rather weird and strange. This morning we dropped off Alex at daycare and stopped to get some breakfast at a small restaurant. This was mine and Zayn's first trip to Uni together and it was weird having him come with me somewhere where he was usually never interested in.

On the other hand I was proud of him. He was never interested in school and focused more on hanging out with his friends. Now he was settling on a future for himself as an Art teacher and I couldn't be more proud of him.

When we walked inside the school, a couple of people looked at us while the others ignored us and went on to their first class. It must've looked bad since the last time they've seen Zayn he was with Dakota. I stayed by his side as we walked hand in hand towards our lockers and tried not to think about how it felt like I was in high school again.

As I opened my locker with Zayn standing beside me, I heard footsteps coming my way. When I turned my head, Anastasia, Mandy, and Sam were next to me with different facial expressions. Anastasia looked confused, Sam was blankly staring at Zayn, and Mandy bit her lip from her excitement. They didn't know that Zayn and I were back together so I had to let them in on the news. The only way we were going to have this chat was if Zayn wasn't here because they were very expressive when it came to boys.

"Uh," Zayn looks at the girls with a nervous glance. He scratches the back of his head from the weird looks the girls are giving him before he panics and turns to me. "I'm going to the men's room and then I'll be back to walk you to class, okay?"

I nod my head with a small smile before he leans over and places a hand on my shoulder and kisses the top of my head. I watch as he walks away and out of my eyesight before I turn my head to the three girls I call my best friends. Before I'm able to say a word, Mandy squeals happily.

"You're back together, aren't you?" She asks while tapping her feet on the ground excitedly. Her hands are over her mouth as she continues to fangirl over my relationship.

A smile emits from my lips, unable to refrain from Mandy's attitude. "Yes, we are back together." I confirm while she continues to jump like a little girl.

Sam grins and asks the next question. "How'd it happen? Did you do anything or did he make the first move?"

I sigh as I begin to tell the three of them what happened. It doesn't annoy me though because they're the first people I've shared this with besides myself and Zayn. I couldn't tell Harry anything the other day because Louis was there and I didn't want to hurt his feelings. I only wish he could move on and find someone who will give him the love he craves.

"He made the first move when he came to my house and asked me to tell him about the secret." I pause to catch their expressions. They're intrigued to know what happened since they've been begging me to tell him instead of pushing him away. "I told him and he forgave me."

"He had nothing to forgive you about either way, it wasn't your fault." Mandy says but I ignore her and continue on with the story.

"Eventually we talked about everything and um, yeah." I looked down at my hands to try to avoid them looking at me blush. I could sense Mandy's smirk and Anastasia and Sam's eyebrow raises. "I think you guys know what happened next."

Mandy holds a grip on my wrists as she groans. "God, the make up sex must've been good." She bites her lip while I burst out laughing and see Anastasia and Sam giving her weird looks.

"Well, gee, don't you watch enough soap operas.." Anastasia speaks and comments for the first time since they've been here. Sam laughs while Mandy shakes her head with a smile.
