Perfectly Polished (Zayn Malik Fanfic)

Chapter 2

Maria scooted into her room and the frame of her open window.

Footsteps could be heard down the hall and she slid the window shut as quietly as she could and ran to her bed. “Maria?” her mum whispered and she groaned like she was waking her up. “Sorry sweetheart, I thought I saw someone near your window.” Her voice trailed off as Maria waved her mum out of her room and she heard the door shut.

She jumped out of bed and through off the covers. She pulled the chain on her lamp and shadows slipped onto the walls and as the bulb sparked to life.

Maria changed out of her clothes and stripped the makeup off her face as she slid into an old pair of shorts and into a worn and stretched surfing shirt.

She was about to lay down to go to bed when her brother stumbled into her room. “Lou? What are you doing in here?” Lou was 21 but still lived at home, lame right? She finds him annoying since he’s way too protective of her and he could find out anything he wanted.

“Maria, where were you?” he sat down on the corner of the bed and she leaned back and chose to play stupid.

“What are you ta-?”

“Don’t lie!” he stood up with fire in his eyes but he kept his voice down for her sake and their mum wouldn’t hear. “I SAW YOU COME IN THROUGH YOUR WINDOW!” he paused for a minute then turned around to face to door as he ran his fingers through his hair. “FOR THE LOVE OF, MUM SAW YOU AND SHE DIDN’T SEE YOU DANCE OUT THE BACK DOOR TO GO WHEREEVER YOU WENT EVEN THOUGH YOU WALKED RIGHT BEHIND HER!” Lou took a deep breath and turned to face Maria again. “You’re getting reckless and… and who do you think she’ll blame if you get into some kind of trouble? It won’t be you…” his voice trailed off as he slipped into the hall and she could hear him punched the wall as her the bulb in her lamp sparked commencing the end of its days and she laid down to go to sleep.

Zayn drove into his drive way as he could see one of his roommates run into the house. He barely paid any mind, he was still thinking about Maria, he loved how her brown curls framed her face and how when she blushed her cheeks made her pale skin pinker.

His thoughts were interrupted when one of his mates jumped on his back. “ZAYN’S HOME FROM WATCHINGING THE FIREWORKS!” Zayn spun around as his other mate ran into the room and yelled at the blond demon on Zayn’s back.

“NIALL! I AM TRYING TO SLEEP! I COME OUT HERE TO FIND YOU HAPPY ATTACKING ZAYN LIKE HE BROUGHT YOU A HAPPY MEAL OR SOMETHING!” Niall made a depressed duck face as a pissed Liam stood with his hands on his hips.

“Ssssoooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyy!” Niall bounced onto the couch and used the flipper to turn on the television and watched cake boss as Liam walked into the kitchen and Zayn half mindedly followed Liam into the kitchen as he started making tea.

He didn’t even notice Liam talking to him as to his was off in Zayn world, but he did notice when he slapped him. Obviously his patience were running low as to he fell as h slapped him. “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?”

Zayn practically screamed as Liam gave him a cup of tea. “Who is she?”
