Loved You First

Chapter 2 - A Plan.

Evangeline POV 

I woke up the next morning in Zayns bed with Zayns body pressed against mine and his arms wrapped around me. Everything was fine, until I looked at my phone, I had 52 missed calls from Roger and almost twice as many texts. 

I hopped out of bed and immediately called Harry's girlfriend Camilla. 

“Camilla if Roger calls you please tell him I stayed with you at your flat and that I'm on my way now!!" I said pleading with her

" okay Evang I will... Are you okay?" 

" Ya I'm fine Camilla" 

"You know if you ever need anything you can tell me or Harry especially Zayn, hell anybody" she said with concern in her voice

"I'm okay Camilla I have to go I’ll see you at 5 for the next concert"

I walked quietly to the door and looked back at him sleeping peacefully. “Should I say bye or just leave?" I asked myself 

He was so beautiful I had always thought so, from the first day I met him back in grade 6. I even use to have a crush on him back in grade 9 & 10 but he practically laughed in my face about it. I wrote him a letter one day confessing everything and he laughed. So I pushed it all back and he started trying to hook me up with Roger so I went with it, eventually I started to care about Roger. 

I walked out of the flat without saying bye. I needed to get back to my place fast. Roger wasn't always bad he was actually a great guy. He just gets mad sometimes. 

Everyone does 

I got to my flat finally where Roger was waiting for me, He asked me where i was and I told him I was with Camilla.

He said "don't you fuckin lie I saw you leave Zayns complex" 

"Camilla and Harry live there too!!" I screamed back at him "call her if you want to Roger" 

He smiled and said " I believe ya babes" then he shoved me against the wall and started kissing me it was sweet… at first... Then he put his hand on my throat and started to squeeze. 

"Roger what are you doing???" I said in a raspy tone

"don't you ever fucking lie to me Evangeline! Do you think I'm stupid???" He yelled at me

His grip got tighter so tight I couldn't answer him. 

Zayn POV 

I woke up the next day at noon hoping to find Ang next to me but she was already gone. I groaned as i gt out of be and went to order food and get ready for the day. 

I had a sound check at 3. While I was relaxing around my flat Niall and Liam came over to eat with me, I told them that I finally decided that today would be the day I tell Evangeline how I feel about her! Whether she felt the same or not I didn't care I had to tell her.  

They both jumped up with excitement “Finally!” Liam yelled

“What made ya want to do it today?” Asked Niall

“I’ll tell you but you can’t say anything.” They nodded in to agree. “Ang slept here last night in bed with me.” Both of their mouths dropped to the floor

“annnnnnd” Niall asked

“Nothing we just slept but it was perfect. It felt right. I know she had to have felt it too. You can’t fake that feeling. While she was sleeping at one point she laid on my chest and wrapped herself around me, I looked down and she was smiling. It was just like old times.”

After sound check we went back stage to start getting ready. Ang was trimming Harry's hair and touching up Nialls blonde. She finally got to me and gave me a hug. 

"Thanks for letting me stay with you Zayn I was too drunk"

"It's cool Ang" I said with a smirk

I looked at her neck and I saw a bruise

"What's that all about Ang?" I asked in a forceful tone touching her neck 

She laughed and said "Roger and I had some rough sex today Zayn. Thanks for being nosy" She said with a wink while putting on a jumper covering her neck

Hearing her say that almost made me second guess my decision. Almost. 

Evangeline POV

I felt so bad lying to Zayn he was my best friend the only person I could be honest with. But with this I couldn’t, he would try to kill Roger so would the others. So I just kept this to myself it was his first time doing anything more than grabbing my wrists. He wouldn’t do it again. I was sure of it. 

Zayn POV 

She started working on my hair running her fingers through it and smacking me when I pulled away from her.  We were laughing and messing around. It felt like the old days.

Then it was show time. 

She walked us to the stage making final touches then wished us all luck as we ran out. Half way through the show I would tell her how I felt I had it all planned out. 

Evangeline POV

The boys looked great as they ran on stage. I stayed on the side waiting for them to run off in between songs if they needed anything. 

About half way through the show Zayn ran off and said "Listen to the words in these next two songs Ang, I am singing them for you to you about you" 

He hugged me tight kissed my cheek and ran back on stage. I was so confused, I saw Harry ask him something then look back at me and wink. 

What was he planning?

They started to sing 'More than this' and I started to think to myself "why this song?"

Zayn POV 

"I’ve never had the words to say, But now I’m askin’ you to stay

For a little while inside my arms, And as you close your eyes tonight, I pray that you will see the light, That’s shining from the stars above," I sang my part and I turned to look at her. I gave that song everything I had I wanted her to know exactly what I meant!

She looks so surprised! Did she really not know?
