Loved You First

#4 - Date

-- Angela's P.o.V --

I got to Nandos in no time. I was there a bit early. Zayn wasn't there yet. He said we'd meet here around 6. It was just only 5:00.

"Mind if I join you?" a curly haired boy asked me.

"No not at all." he sat down in front of me.

"What is a beautiful lady like you doing here in this restaurant all alone?" he asked taking my hand.

"I'm actually waiting for someone." he frowned.

"Oh is that so? My name is Harry by the way." he gazed into my eyes. He has such pretty green eyes. Angela snap out of it.

I looked away and looked back at him. "Angela."

"Well that's a pretty name." I shook my head.

"Harry." someone with blonde hair called out from behind him.

"Niall, come join me and Angela over here." Harry motioned him to come sit at our table.

"Hey there pretty lady. Niall is the name" Niall said as he sat down next to Harry.

"Angela." He took my hand and shook it.

I smiled and so did he. We chit chatted for awhile and exchanged numbers.

"We should get going now, it was nice meeting you Angela." Harry said as he hugged me. I returned the hug and same went with Niall.

They both left Nandos and that's when I saw Zayn walking in.

"Zayn." I called out. Zayn walked to where I was at.

"Hey babe. You're looking very beautiful today." he complimented. Wait, what? Did he just call me babe? That's a first.

"Why thank you." I said a bit blushing. "You're looking nice yourself" I complimented back as he sat down in front of me.

"Its been so long since we hung out." He started the conversation.

I nodded "Yeah, I miss them old times."

"Hey, I uhm wanna tell you something." he looked down but looked back up into my eyes until we were interrupted.

"Can I take your orders?" a waiter asked.

"I can get the usual?" Zayn asked.

"Sure thing Mr.Malik. And for our lady over here?" the waiter looks towards me. I didn't know what to order.

"Just get her the same thing" Zayn said. And the waiter left.

"So you come here a lot huh?" I asked. He nodded. "So what was the thing you wanted to tell me?"

"Well uhmm..Never mind its nothing" he said shaking his head.

"Well okay. So how's life and the family?" I asked. I didn't want it to be awkward.

"Its good. The family is good. Maybe you can come by my house sometimes. We missed you." he gazed into my eyes.

"Yeah sure. I'd love that." he has such pretty hazel eyes.

"Here's your order." the waiter came and put our food in the table.

Me and Zayn said thank you and the waiter left. We ate our food and chit chatted more.

-- Zayn's P.o.V --

An looks so beautiful today. I wanted to tell her that I think I was falling for her but probably she wouldn't feel the same way. I've known her for so long maybe she only think of us as brothers and sisters or just friends.

I also wanted to tell her that I was auditioning for the xfactor in less than a week. But I don't know, I think I should at least tell her about that. I know that she'll support me like when we were little kids.

"Hey I wanna tell you something." I said kinda nervous.

"Yeah Zayn what is it?"

"Well I'm auditioning for the xfactor"

"Wow that's great." she said with joy.

"Yeah, I audition this week." I looked down.

"Why are you sad? Shouldn't you be happy?" she got up and sat next to me.

I hugged her tight "I love you".

She pushes back from the hug. "What?" she looked into my eyes shock. "Zayn--"

I cut her off "An, I'm sorry. But I like you. I really really like you. And yes I've like you for a long time now. And I didn't know how else to tell you. You probably don't feel the same way about me. But I hope we can still stay friends."

Zayn just admitted his love for me. What should I do? Should I tell him how I feel about him?

"Zayn, I uhm-- I need to go. I had fun with you tho" I gave him a quick peek on his cheeks not even realising I did and walked out of the restaurant.

What just happened? I thought. As I walked out of the restaurant I stopped. Its raining. Shit. How am I gonna get home now? Ugh. Might as well walk in the rain right?

I started running until someone grabbed my wrist and turn me around. It was Zayn. He pulled me close to him and...
