Imagines (from my Instagram)

Bookworm

You are on your way out of the local cafe, sipping your strawberry-banana smoothie. Being the bookworm you are, you are walking slowly, also trying to balance the novel in your opposite hand.

Suddenly, you feel a liquid dropping down your back. You gasp, turning around to find the culprit.

Bad-boy Joey and his best friend Zayn are standing there, laughing their heads off. Well, Joey is. Zayn looks kids worried.

"What was that for?!"

Joey continues laughing, but Zayn stands up and walks over to you. "Joey's an idiot, I'm sorry."

"It's fine," you mutter, turning away to go home.

"Don't you want to clean it up?"

"I'm going home."

"Let me help you."

You nod cautiously and follow him towards the girls bathroom. You open the door, and Zayn surprisingly follows you. You stand uncomfortably as Zayn collects paper towels.

"Um, I think I've got it from here," you say.

He nods and hands you his handful of towel to clean yourself up. 

Ten minutes later, you walk out of the bathroom, and run into Zayn again.

"What are you still doing here?" You ask him, seeing there's no sign of Joey.

"Waiting for you," he replies with a smile.

You blush. "Thanks, but I think-"

"Wanna get out of here? Get something to eat?"

"Um.."

"Please, it's the least I could do. Joey's kinda an ass."

"I noticed," you laugh. "But yeah, I'd love to."

You smile as he takes your free hand, pulling you out the door for a night to remember.
