She's Mine

Chapter 15

Zayn’s POV

“Uh, this Friday… hmmm…” I needed her answer, every second felt like an hour, every minute felt like a day. I knew the boys were furious, just by Liam’s tight grip on my arm, I knew they would never forgive me. But she was my dream girl, and I didn’t want to waste time before she was gone. “I can show you around London!” I suggested, smiling like an idiot. “Hmm, sounds cool. Sure, I’ll love to.” YES, YES, YES, I thought to myself. Liam’s hand withdrew from my arm, making it feel a bit numb. “Aright, see you guys tomorrow. Take care!” She watched us walk away a little before she shut the door. 

“WHAT THE HELL MAN?!” Liam shoved me a little. “What? I like her too! You can’t stop me from asking her out!” I retorted, leaving them silent. Nobody said a word as we got to Harry’s front porch. “Zayn’s right, he deserves a chance…” Harry broke the silence, leaving us all shocked that he sided with me. “We all deserve a chance with her, which ever she likes more… well gets her.” His proposition was reasonable, and we our nodded heads in agreement. “So do your best trying to win her heart, mate! Because I’m next!” Liam declared, fixing his jacket a bit. Oh I will do more than try, I will definitely win her heart this Friday night and that’s a promise. 

*Friday Night*

Alright, cologne, check. Ahh, hair perfectly quiffed, double check! I stared at my reflection through my bathroom mirror, everything was perfect. I grabbed my keys and walked out of my bedroom door. “I’m going out, mum. Be back by 12,” I notified my mother as I walked straight through the living room to the front door. “Alright, sweetie. Take care.” That was the last thing I heard once I walked outside. The sun was shining brightly, considering it was pass noon. The weather was perfect, it wasn’t too cold or too hot. It was like Spring weather. I pulled the handle of my car and slided right in. I started the engine and nervously drove to her house. ‘Calm down, Zayn. Act cool, Rachel is just a gir- No, she isn’t just a girl, she’s my soulmate. You have to impress her.’ I was so caught up with talking to myself that I didn’t even realized that I passed her house. Smooth, Zayn, just smooth. As I finally parked in her drive way, I notice four faces staring out of Harry’s window. Of course, they were watching me. Watching me slip up, so they could get there turn… But that won’t happen, I won’t let that happen. I pushed the yellow-lit door bell, and waited for what seemed like a century. Suddenly the door knob started to turn and the door began to pull back. 

My big smile faded a little when I realized the person standing behind the door wasn’t her. “Hi, Erick.” I politely said. “I don’t like you.” He bluntly said, obviously he didn’t, but I couldn’t blame him. I wouldn’t like either if a guy was in front of my door waiting to go out with my sister. I awkwardly nodded my head, counting the seconds till I see Rae. “Erick, don’t be rude.” There she was, beautiful as always. She was dressed causally, but she was still beautiful. “Hey, lover boy. Snap out of it and listen up!” Erick’s fingers snap in front of me, causing me to flinch back and pay attention to him. “Alright, no holding hands, actually no touching in general. Absolutely no kissing, or else that perfect hair of yours will be shaved off… and bring her back by 10!” He finished harshly, and I nervously swallowed the lump in my throat. “Erick, shut up and get inside. He won’t take me out at all if you keep scaring him. I will die alone if you do this with every guy I hang out with!” Rae pushed her brother out of the way, and attempted to slam the door. “BY 10!” Erick swipe his hand near his neck, indicating he would kill me if I didn’t bring her back by ten. Rae took my hand and started to pull me along with her. She was touching my hand, wait wasn’t this a violation? I untangled my hand from hers, she turned to me and the most beautiful smile faced me. “You don’t have to follow his rules you know?” I just smiled back and quickly open the car door for her. She gladly went in, and I closed the door shut. Just before I went in myself, I looked at the window one last time. The four faces had disappeared. My heart sunk, I’m sorry guys.
