John had texted me the details of Zayn and I's 'meeting place'. It was going to be near my cousins place, apparently I haven't seen him in a while but I saw him last week. I sighed and got ready. I put on an aqua t-shirt and some skinny jeans. Do you know how hard skinny jeans are to get into? Should be an Olympic sport! Anyway, I didn't bother with make up because we 'weren't doing anything for the cameras'. Bullshit!
I tied my hair back into a ponytail and looked in the mirror. Hmm, maybe a little bit of mascara? Yes, ok. I added a little bit of mascara and grabbed my phone and car keys. Jade is staying home all day and I think Jesy and Leigh are coming round. I have no idea coz I have to do this stupid thing. I shut the down behind me and got into my car. I drove to my cousins street and parked there for what seemed like 5 minutes before I saw a black Bentley pull over in front of my Audi. That must be Zayn. No one else I know around here has a $32,000 Bentley casually sitting in their garages.
I saw him get out of his car and look around. I re-read my text and remembered that we had about 10 minutes to ourselves before the paps get here. Yay! Not. I got out as well so Zayn didn't look like a stupid, lost puppy. But he looked cute, even if I did call him stupid. He saw me and walked over.
"Hey." He said simply.
"Hi." I replied.
"This is going to be awkward" Zayn started. "We have 10 minutes of peace and quiet before the paps get here, but wouldn't that alarm the neighbours?" I thought about it and remembered all the times the paps have been around us and how crazy and loud they've been.
"Maybe it'll be only like, two or three people taking shots, not a whole crazy mob.." I said.
"Yeah I supposed that'd be logical.." he agreed. We sat there awkwardly for about 2 minutes before Zayn put an arm around my shoulder, just like yesterday. I rested my head on his chest and we stood there, leaning against my car until we heard more cars pull up. I left Zayn's embrace and went up to them, but before I could, Zayn pulled me back.
"What?" I asked him.
He just looked into my eyes, trying to figure out something, something I don't know what. He put one hand on my cheek, holding it there.
"Do you want to do this? I mean, John set this up, isn't it too much publicity too soon?" he whispered. I sighed.
"I-I don't know, we are pretty popular already, guess John wants it to be world-wide like you guys" I answered.
"That still doesn't answer my question" Zayn stated. I looked at him, just silently taking in his features; chocolate brown eyes, jawline, stubble on his chin and under his mouth and those eyelashes. Just, wow.
"I-I, yes. Why not?" I said smiling, watching Zayn's face light up. My phone went off and I had to pull away to check the message.
'Time's up guys. Paps are waiting!'
Ugh, it was John. Did he have contact with one of the photographers or what? I went in for a hug. I wrapped my arms around Zayn's waist while his arms went around my shoulders. That should be enough for the paps to start their stories off with. We just stood there and hugged. I don't know how long afterwards but Zayn eventually pulled away and put his hands on my waist. He slowly leaned down as I leant up. I shut my eyes just as our lips touched. Oh my God, wow.
It was only meant to be a peck, I think, but who cares right? It was our first kiss as a couple, and I intended it to be a good one. Pretty sure Zayn did too. Our mouths moved in sync and after a few seconds Zayn pulled away. I probably had a look of disappointment on my face because he just laughed and hugged me again. Once we both pulled away, Zayn gestured to a Segway, for two. I looked at him in surprise. He just laughed.
"Yes love, a Segway" he stated.
"Well obviously!" I said, getting over excited. See, I've never been on a Segway before. I know, sad life I have right? Well, not anymore! I grabbed Zayn's hand and we walked to the Segway, ok, I guess I sped walked a bit. We got on and rode around the street, it was so much fun! I'm definitely going on another Segway sometime. I was stoked. The paps kept their distance, and soon I forgot they were even there because I was having so much fun on the Segway. Cant wait for more days like this!
