This Is Us (Zayn malik)

Chapter 6

The next morning i was nervous as hell.
Yawning i rolled out of bed and made my way down stairs.
I stopped in my tracks when the smell of something burning hit my nose.
I walked in the kitchen taking in the scene in front of me.
Rose was standing in front of the stove waving her hands frantically.
"What the hell are you trying to do burn the building down" i choked out.
She turned around her eyes widened "sahara, im so glad your here, here you can help me with this" she grabbed me pushing me in front of the stove
I looked down into one of the pans to see what looked like bacon burning to a crisp.
I took the pan and dumped the bacon in the sink and switched on the garbage disposal.

"You'll be fine" rose said for the hundredth time since we stepped foot in the giant building.
"I..." I was speechless.
"Shh im sure they'll love you sahr just be yourself" rose gripped my shoulders steering me in the direction of the elevator.
"Yeah because I'm just the friendliest person" i rolled my eyes.
She just laughed as we got on the elevator.

"Sahara millington" the mans voice boomed.
"That's my name" i replied a little rudely.
He gave me a questioning look and i immediately regretted it.
"So we here at the label have decided to give you a record deal..."
Ow my god i have to be dreaming.
"on one condition"
Theres always a catch.
"You work in a group" he finished.
My face fell, i wasn't good working with others, especially strangers.
"If you agree you'll be working with two other girls who have won this opportunity in contests such as the x factor and american idol" ok i feel like he just hoed me.
Two other girls seems okay.
"Alright"?
"Great so if you'd sign the release form, and some other papers" he said opening a folder.

~
When we got back from the label rose insisted we go out and in her words "get shit faced" and after my last experience i wasn't all for it.
"Come on you deserve it" she urged.
I sat on the edge of my bed staring at the black tv screen.
" i really don't want to..."
"The boys will be there" she added.
I instantly perked up at the mention of that.
"Well there growing on me and there pretty fun to hang out with" i said smiling.
I'd get to see Zayn, and if i built up enough courage i could talk to him... Maybe... Probably not.
"Alright" i finally agreed.
"Yay, now to find an outfit" rose exclaimed clapping her hands.
She walked into my closet and came back out at least ten times with a different outfit and each one of them had something i disliked about them.
The umpteenth time she walked out holding a silver shirt with a sweetheart neckline made of stretchy fabric and a black pencil skirt with matching heels, of coarse.
"Im not wearing those" i pointed out.
"For the sake of my obsession to look good just wear them... for me" she whined.
"No"
"You have suck long toned legs what better way to show them off than wear heels" she sighed.
I rolled my eyes "nope" i said popping the p.
"For the boys" my mind instantly went to zayn.
"Maybe..."
"I'll tale that as a yes, hurry get dressed were leaving in 40" with that she scurried out the door.
I slipped into the clothes, and the heels.
When i glanced in the mirror i noticed how long my legs really did look.
I guess i looked... okay?
I sat in front of the mirror make up bag in front of me and began.
When i finished my make up, i did pretty damn good for a first timer.
"hey... you look amazing" rose chirped surprise leaking in her voice.
"Thanks, so i did good"?
"Totally, lets just get that hair under control " she picked up the waver from the dresser and walked towards me.
Things girls do to look good.

We took a cab to the club, this was also i first for me partying wasn't really in my thing.
When i stepped out of the cab onto wobbly legs i was met with a cool breeze, it actually felt good considering all the heat we've been having.
Rose took lead and walked in the direction of a black glass door.
She typed in a code on the security thingy and the door buzzed before opening.
The outside of the club was nothing compared to the inside.
Colorful lights everywere, dancing bodys, eardrum busting music and the heavy smell of alcohol.
"Stay close" rose yelled over the music.
She led me through a crowd until we reached the back of the club.
There was two large men like at the boys party, standing in front of a velvet rope.
Rose walked up to the less intimidating one and whispered something in his ear.
While she was carrying on a conversation with the man i looked beyond the rope into the private area.
The boys were sitting along a large black wrap around couch, Niall stuffing his face, louis whining like a child with his arms folded across his chest and his bottom lip stuck out., harry was sat next to a blonde and cute ginger chit chatting away, and zayn he was distant his eyes glued to his phone.
"Sahr... sahr" i pulled my eyes back to rose who was grinning mischievously at me.
"Come on" she waved me towards the bouncer who was holding back the rope.
I swear this girl gets any and everything she wants.
Once we crossed the threshold the boys noticed us.
Louis jumped up and rushed over to me "sahara you've came to save me" he cheered.
"Sure" i said a small frown forming.
"Please have a seat, rose" he took my hand and we sat down right across from zayn.
"Is everything alright lou" i asked?
"Harry's found new friends and left me" he whined.
"You have me now" i smiled sheepishly.
"Oh right, well would you fancy a drink" he asked?
I glanced around once more my eyes stopping on that ginger.
Something about him seemed so familiar.
"Sahara" louis snapped his fingers in front of my face.
I brought eyes back to him "huh"?
He looked in the direction i was just looking "oh thats ed, do you know him" he asked?
Ed...
Ed...
E...
Oh my GOD, that was ed sheeran.
"That's... that's Ed Sheeran" i whisper screamed.
"I take it your familiar with him" he said sounding kinda annoyed.
"I love his music" i couldn't stop smiling.
"Would you like to meet him" he asked?
My jaw dropped.
"Um... i mean... Yes" i stutterd.
He took hold of my hand once more and led me over to ed who happened to be sitting right next to zayn, whats up with all these coincidences today.
"Ed" louis said getting his attention.
He turned his head and i melted standing there.
He glanced up at me and smiled.
"Yes louis" he sounded amused.
"I'd like you to meet sahara she's a huge fan" he grinned.
"Oh is she now" he stood up and took my hand.
The second he did that I forgot how to breath.
In...
Out...
In...
Out...
"Any friend of the bands is a friend of mine, as long as you are not one of those stalker types" he joked.
I shook my head really fast in the process hurting my neck "never" i said smiling.
God he was so beautiful.
But not as beautiful as... stop sahara dont go there.
"I'm looking forward to getting to now you then, love" he kissed my cheek and sat back down resuming his conversation.
Ed sheeran just kissed me.
I was to happy, but deep down i felt this pang of betraylal.
When i glanced over i noticed zayn was no longer sitting there, i wonder if he saw all of that?

Zayn's pov
I had to get out of there.
His flirting with her was unbearable. but when he kissed her... fuck.
I slammed my fist on the sink counter.
I had to make her mine i couldn't live with the thought of another guy having her, touching her.
My phone ringing interrupted my raging thoughts.
"Hello" i answered.
"Hello zayn malik" the unknown voice asked?
Yes" i replied.
"This is managment" they continued.
"And we were just calling to let you know you were chosen to mentor the newest signed member of the label, sahara millington"
Yes this was the perfect chance.
"If you choose to do it or not it is your decision you are to let us know with in two days time"
With that the voice hung up.
Now i just had to come up with a plan to win her over.

A/N sorry for taking like forever back to school and everything so i'll try to update sooner.
