Because she made me believe (ZAYN MALIK)

Guilty

Dedicated to MelanieMalik6

ALLANA'S POV

The cold air of the air-conditioner hit my bare skin disturbing my peaceful slumber. Grumpily I shifted to my side , hoping to snuggle into Zayn's warm chest. However disappointment welcomed me as I opened my eyes to see the empty half of the bed with messy covers.

Perhaps Zayn was in the washroom. Lazily pushing myself into a sitting position I grabbed his t-shirt which was kept on the nightstand. Surprisingly the t-shirt was neatly folded .As I recalled the events of last night I remember pulling the material of Zayn's toned torso and discarding it ruthlessly. The memories of our special moment were enough to taint my cheeks crimson. Last night , I got an insight to a very different side of his personality which only made me fall for him harder , if that is possible anymore. Feeling the smooth material of his black AC-DC t-shirt , I inhale his scent lingering on the material . Okay so I guess I am officially creepy.

Slipping it on my body I start searching for my hair-tie as my long hair start annoying me. I swear Zayn has some serious issues with my hair-ties. At every opportunity he will remove the hair-tie from my hair , throwing it away carelessly. Shuffling the covers ,I discover a large chocolate bar with a note stuck on it. Opening the note I find a message written in Zayn's untidy writing. Honestly deciphering Egyptian symbols would be be easier than reading Zayn's scribbles.

Dear Miss Francis,

Good Morning love. As much as my heart desired to see your gorgeous smile when I woke up , I didn't want us to get caught by anyone . Thus, I left early saving both of us major drama. I hope your knee feels better and the blush on your cheeks is intact since our certain activities last night. I could've easily texted you but writing cute lovey dovey notes is more romantic I guess. See you soon.

The biggest cheeseball in the world but only for you baby girl ,

Zayn x

P.S. Eat the chocolate only after brushing your teeth . Be a good girl for me.

I re-read the note a few times before my jaws starting aching from smiling. Who would've known that the boy with a brooding , mysterious exterior could be such an incurable romantic at heart. Grinning I tuck the note in the pocket of my shorts walking towards the bathroom to complete my morning routine. Did I find my hair tie ? Nah! This is the fourth one I have lost courtesy Mr. Zayn Malik.

The pain in my knee has considerably lessened and the ugly gash seems to be healing although I am sure it will leave a scar on my skin. Stepping out of the bathroom I settle on the couch scrolling through my cell phone. Last night I remember Zayn and me had laughed our guts out on reports circulating the internet pertaining to Zayn's apparent crush on Kylie Jenner . He had favorited a picture of Kylie in a racy red and black outfit because he felt that the dress was edgy and had a certain appeal to it. As usual the simple gesture was blown out of proportion by the media with some reports even stating that Kylie was dumping her boyfriend Tyga for Zayn and her mother Kris had invited Zayn to an intimate dinner event when he visited L.A.

"Why did you favorite her picture if you were aware of the ruckus that would be created ?" I asked him as lay on the bed with his head on my lap.

" I didn't expect such a reaction on something as petty as a like on a picture. Besides I thought I'll ask her from where she bought the saucy outfit from." He replied grinning.

" Why do you wanna know that ? Are you buying it for yourself ?" I teased him stroking his hair softly.

" I wanted to buy it for you." He said narrowing his eyes at me.

" Zayn there is no way I am gonna wear that dress." I shrieked.

" Actually you are right baby girl . You don't have enough silicon in your body to rock that outfit." He said bursting in laughter at his silly joke. {A/N I hope you'll got the joke }

A loud knock on the door interrupted my train of thoughts. Opening the door I was engulfed in a tight hug by my brother. "Lama , I didn't know you would be awake at 8am in the morning ? Didn't the doctor give you sedatives ? I was worried so I decided to visit you early." Niall said walking inside the suite.

" I just woke up Ni and my medicines mainly consisted of pain killers. I am glad you came. You want to grab breakfast with me ? " I ask him settling on the couch.

" Aren't you my special sister ? Always hungry just like me." He chided me poking my cheek . I brushed his hand off me and he annoyingly repeated his actions.

" Allana I spoke to your dad last night. Informed him regarding the stampede and your injury. Did you have a word with him ?" He asks me.

Shoot I forgot to call my dad because I was busy with Zayn. Correction I was busy kissing Zayn.

" I slept quite early last night." I lie to him. " I'll call him in an hour after breakfast."

" Don't forget to call him . He misses you a lot." Niall says and I feel guilty since I haven't spoken to my dad over the past 4 days. There was a lot of work piled up for me and Zayn had also fallen sick. I was so engrossed in my personal life I had forgotten to call my father.

" Where is Sophia ? Is she still sleeping ?" Niall asks warily eyeing me with a frown on his face.

" She- uh - she went to meet Liam . She told me she will be back in 10-15 minutes." I lie again , feeling conscious of Niall's fixed gaze on me.

" Cool. I like your t-shirt. Never knew you were a fan of AC-DC." He says , his blue eyes peering at me.

" Uh- yeah- thanks . I have recently started following them." I reply hesitantly.

" Interesting . You know Zayn has a similar t-shirt. Funny coincidence isn't it ?" He says in a curt tone.

My forehead starts covering with sweat as I tug at the hem of Zayn's t-shirt. I have an eerie feeling with Niall's questions and a part of me wants to blurt out the truth to him while the other wants to keep Zayn's promise of hiding our relationship for a while.

" Umm yeah ... I mean I-umm am sure most of the AC-DC fans have similar kind of t-shirts." I stutter.

" Lama." Niall says taking my hand in both his hands " I want you to always remember that I got your back. Forever. You can tell me anything and I mean it. I will never judge you. You are my sister and you have always been my closest friend,just don't make any stupid choices yeah...please...don't blindly trust anybody. Some things and some people are not what they seem .There is always more to them than what meets the eyes. Be careful." Niall words startle me. It feels like he is carefully pouring out his thoughts to me.

His ocean blue eyes display his concern and worry for me. I open my mouth to respond back to him but I am at a loss of words. There is a lump forming in my throat and I feel like a traitor betraying my brother's trust. I want to tell him that his anxiety is unnecessary but I could empathize with Niall. After all he was just trying to protect his sister from making mistakes that would hurt her. How I wish I could tell him that choosing to be with Zayn is not a mistake but probably the only correct choice I have made so far. If not now , then maybe someday I would be able to tell Niall.

Giving him a small smile I envelop him in a hug. " I love you Ni."

" I love you too Lama." He replies softly. In that moment a new truth dawns upon me. Zayn won't be the cause of disruption in my relationship with Niall but I will be reason for sabotaging their friendship.
