Jenna's POV

I woke up to the sound of a peacefull heartbeat and a pair of arms firmly tighten around my waist. I fluttered my eyelids open, to see Zayn's beautiful sleeping face. His left cheek was buried to the pillow and his plump, pinky lips were partly open letting soft snores slipping from his mouth. His long dark eyelashes were wet and the tears had dried to his unshaved cheeks.

Last night, after the breakdown he had, I brought him upstairs and I laied him down to my bed. I stayed by his side all the night until the morning, when he finally drifted into peacefull sleep. I couldn't help but let a smile creeped its way to my lips, looking at him. I buried my face to his clothed chest, wrapping my arms around his torso aswell. A yawn escaped his mouth and he looked down at me. He lifted my chin with his delicant fingers and he pressed his lips onto mines.

"Good morning" He said in his morning raspy voice and smiled to me.

"Good morning." I smiled.

"Do you want me to prepare something to eat?" I asked.

"I was thinking that maybe we can go out for breakfast today. It's a wonderful day!" I was surprised of his mood. A few hours later he was crying his heart out and now he wants to go out for breakfast? I decided to drop it so I nodded and I flashed him a soft smile. After all, going out and socialize will  make him good.

I rolled out of bed and I made my way to the bathroom. I quickly got my makeup and hair done and I slipped to my skinny jeans and grey sweatshirt and I walked out. Zayn was downstairs, in front of the mirror fixing his hair. 

"You think I look bad?" He asked me not taking his eyes of the mirror.

"Nope! You're always good looking!" I grinned and I hugged him from behind.

"Hmm...yeah right! Last night, I was a crying mess!" He smiled with his perfect smile of his.

"Yesterday was yesterday. And today you look hot!" I winked causing him to giggle. 

"Whatever! Are you ready to go, babe?" He grabbed his car keys and walked towards the door. 

"Yeah." I grabbed my purse and I followed him outside. 

"Shit!" He cursed under his breath. 

"What's wrong Zaynie?" 

"There are paps." Zayn rolled his eyes and I looked around to find some of them waiting right next to Zayn's car. When they saw us they started yelling and the flashes were blinding me. I lowered my head, facing the grey street and Zayn wrapped his arm protectively around my waist, gesturing me to the car. 

Zayn! Jenna! Over there please!

Guys, can we asked you some questions?

"I think we should answer their questions or they will never leave us alone!" I whispered to Zayn's ear.

He sighed and then put a warm smile on his face, leading me towards the group of the paps.

"Good morning!" He smiled at them and at this point they went crazy. The cameras were flashing and me and Zayn tried our best to give them a soft, genuine smile.

"Good morning guys! Is it true that you're living together now?" A blonde yound lady asked.

"Not this time but Jenna has already started packing her stuff." Zayn looked towards me and flashed me a smile.

"How do you deal with the hate, Jenna?" A ginger haired guy asked me.

"I don't really log in to my twitter, so I don't really know what they say about me." I said quietly.

"Zayn why you were at Perrie's house yesterday?" A man yelled and I turned around to face Zayn. The smile dropped in his face.

"I went to pick up some stuffs...." He spoke and turned his gaze away from him.

"Where are you guys going?" A voice popped out of nowhere, but Zayn has spoted the guy and answered his question.

"We're going out for breakfast, so if you don't mind guys! We just want to spend a nice relaxing day. Bye and thanks for your understanding."

The paps moved out of our way and we got into the car, driving to the nearest Starbucks.

***************************************        **********************      ***************************************

"Here's your order! Green tea latte, vanilla bean creme frappuccino, chocolate chunk cookies and your hot chocolate croissants." A young polite waitress comes over to our table and served our breakfast.

"Thank you!" Me and Zayn said in unison and after the girl left, I took a sip of my heavenly made green tea latte.

An awkward silence was filling the air and our surroundings were the only sounds we could hear.

"About what the pap said..." Zayn started catching my attention.

"....I went because I was drunk. Perrie doesn't mean anything to me." He said. It was like he was saying this more to convice himself, not me.

"Are you sure?" I asked flatly and I placed the cup on the table.

"Yes! Jenna, you're the only girl I want to be with!" He said and took my hands on his.

"Zayn, I want you to tell me the truth. Are you sure you're over Perrie?" I said looking him dead in the eyes. His caramel brown eyes were filled with guilt and he lowered his head, avoiding my gaze.

"I knew it...." I chuckled sarcastically to myself and I shook my head.

"What am I even doing in your life Zayn? You're obviously not ready to move on and we're almost two months together. I understand that you're heartbroken but at least you should tell me you don't wan-" I was about to finish my sentence but Zayn pressed his soft lips onto mine. A soft yet passionate kiss. I closed my eyes and after a few seconds I kissed him back.

"You're the one for me. I know that Jenna. I really care about you. You're something special to me." He whispered to my lips, resting his forehead against mine.

"You know I love you Zayn, but you have to let me help you! Are you ready to move on? Are you ready to do this?" I asked looking into his brown mesmering eyes. A few tears were about to fall but I wiped them away.

"I'm ready! I'm ready to leave the past behind and move on. Just please don't leave me!" He said and now I couldn't stop his tears.

"Never! I'm never going to leave you!" I whispered and I bent for another kiss.
