"Do you get think you'll get married?" Zayn asks me.

I shrug my shoulders. "I don't know. You?"

"I hope so. Don't really want to spend the rest of my life alone." Zayn says. He dips his spoon into our shared sundae and eats the ice-cream off.

"What's the sudden interest?" I ask.

"Well Leigh-Anne if you most know, I've always had an interest in getting married, I just haven't found the right girl." Zayn says, shrugging casually. "I'm 36, time is running out."

"I wanna get married by the time I turn 40." He says some time after.

"You can get married at any age Zayn." I say, chuckling a bit.

"I know that, but I wanna be married before my hair starts turning grey." Zayn tells me.

I think over his words before speaking. "Okay. Let's make a pact."

"A pact?" Zayn says a confused tone.

"Yes a pact." I say.

"Alright. What about?" Zayn asks.

"If we can't find someone to get married to by the age of 40, we marry each other." I tell him.

"Why would we marry each other?"

"Because we're best friends meaning we can tolerate each other for a long time and you know how the saying goes; you'd be better off marrying your best friend or something like that."

Zayn thinks over my proposition and nods. "Why not, let's do it."

I stick out my pinky finger, "Pinky promise?"

Zayn smiles and sticks out his pinky finger as well, wrapping it around mine. "Pinky promise."

Zayn gets down on knee in front of me. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

"What are you doing?" I ask.

"I'm proposing to you properly." He says.

He takes a ring pop out of his jean pocket and grabs my hand.

"Will you, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, do me the favour of being my back-up wife?" Zayn asks.

"Yes! Yes! I would love to!" I yell excitedly.

He slides the ring pop on my ring finger and gets up to hug me.

I wipe pretend tears from my eyes. "This is the happiest day of my life."

Zayn chuckles and we go back to eating our sundae.

-- Four Years Later --

"You may now kiss the bride." The preacher says.

Zayn leans down and place a kiss on my lips.

"This is the best decision I have ever made." He says into the kiss.

I nod in agreement. He places another kiss on my lips and we part.

Our family and friends erupt in cheers as we make our way down the aisle. We exit the church and the crowd outside starts cheering and throwing rice and our direction.

We say goodbye to our friends and family and head for the car. Zayn opens the passenger door for me and I climb in. He walks to his side, sliding in.

He turns to me and places his hand on my thigh. "Are you ready to start our amazing life together?"

"Yeah." I say, while nodding.

He leans over and places one last kiss on my lips. He turns and puts the keys into the ignition. We pull away from the church.

I look over to my best friend turned husband and I couldn't have been more happy.

Hello guys.

This isn't that long and I'm sorry for that.

I thought the idea was pretty cute to be honest. I want a boy best friend so he can propose to me.

Did you enjoy it?

Hope you did. Goodbye. Love ya
