Little Things (1D Fan Short Story)

7. Merged into One

(Dedicates to lovely @SaiShruti1D and all the Malik girls.)

'Hey baby. How ya doing?' A smile came to my face when I heard his voice.

'I'm doing great. I'm excited, you know. That's why I called you.' His nervous voice filled my ear. It was another special day for him. Of course yes, he was doing this for five years, yet it's like the very first.

'You are going to be great as always. I know that.' I chuckled. His heavy breath and the screaming noise in the background made me nervous too.

'This is for us. Right?'

'Yeah, this is for us.' I reassured as always. When it comes to the stressful events and jobs, we both get inspired by this quote. It's the super glue that holds us together. And who are we?

Yeah, we are the couple that got engaged year ago, and the world knows us under the name "Sayn". I was comforting my fiancé Zayn Malik, the Bradford boy in the world's biggest boy band, One Direction. And here I am, Shruti, (Madly-waiting-to-be-Mrs. Malik) on her way back to the car with a fully loaded trolley and holding the phone on the left hand.

'How's the weather there?' I asked.

'It's cloudy but Paul said it's nothing to worry about. So... getting ready for your big day?' Guess he's calmed down.

'Oh yes, Zayn. Can't wait to meet my sister-in-laws. Just finished shopping. I'm in the middle of this huge parking lot, searching for the car.'

'Don't tell me you lost the car. AGAIN!'

We both couldn't hold our laughter because of the past incident. Once I came to the super market and I almost lost my car because I was so busy going through the shopping list but not remembering where I parked the car. For my good luck, Zayn was at home so he came and found the car for me. So carless, I know.

'It's a shame I don't have my private detective here with me.'

'Hey... If you want I can come right now.' He was so serious.

'I better spend my whole time here searching for it other than answering to your pissed off fans.'

'You know I won't let them hurt you, Shruti!'

'Baby, it's a joke. Get it? It's just a joke.' I don't want to mess things. Not now.

'Hey!!!! I found it.' I said gleefully as I spotted the red Toyota Civic parked under a tree. With the phone on one hand, and pushing the trolley from the other, I began to cross the road which seemed to be empty.

I can hear a familiar voice talking to Zayn. Oh. That's Harry. They both began to laugh.

'Zayn, say hi to-'

I didn't get the time to finish my line or get onto the other side of the road as something hard knocked me down. All I saw was the blue sky slowly fading away, making the whole world covering with pitch black.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Oh... my head. I can't feel my legs. What happened? What's that beeping sound?

'Doc, why can't you wake her up? It's been three days.' A worried tone. Three days?

'She's waking up. She's waking up!' It was hurtful, but I needed to figure where I was and who was crying. With my remained strength I slowly opened my eyes to find blurred figures staring at me. When I regained my eye sight I found Zayn, looking at me with eyes filled with tears and my mom standing right behind him.

'Oh thank god. You scared me, sweetheart.' He picked my hand and laid a soft kiss on my weak fingers. I smiled at him.

'Zayn? What are you doing here? Is everything okey? Where am I?' I took my gaze away from Zayn to figure out where I was.

'Shhhh... Don't talk. I'll explain.' He said. Mom and the old man in a white coat went out of the room.

'You were hit by a drunk driver. Remember? You were talking to me and the next thing I heard was a crashing noise and you were gone. I got panicked and waited on the line to hear your voice but the only voice I heard was the policeman's.' he let out a sigh.

'I don't know what might have happened to me if...' He looked down.

'Baby. It's okey. I'm here now. Don't. Please.' I got the picture from his brief explanation. Some fragments I still remember. It was so sudden.

'I shouldn't have called you. It was all me. I'm sorry Shruti.' He was silently crying. He loves me that much.

'Zayn,baby. Please look at me. It's not your fault. No. It was the driver. I know you. You are not capable of hurting anybody. Don't take this into your account.'

And he looked back at me. I continued, 'and one more thing, you can't lose me like that. And I have no plans to leave you yet. I'm stuck with you. 0% chance of getting away from me, you dumb ass.' I said with a smile. He start laughing for a good few minutes and only the return of the nurse made him back to normal.

'I'm glad you are here.' I said finally after the nurse left.

'How can I stay in the other end of the world, when my little princess is awfully hurt?' Zayn got up from his seat and bend towards me for a hug. Then he planted a soft kiss on my forehead and on my lips.

It's proven that we are meant for each other. Where ever we are, no one can take our hearts away from us because both the hearts have merged into one.
