They Don't Know About Us

Chapter 30 Zayn /

It's been two weeks since Gwen and I were together. All I could say is that, we love each other. We love each other so much and I couldn't be happier. Every kiss we shared, every time we touch, there would be an electric jolt running through my body. I love her. I really love her.

Gwen was the only one who made me feel this way. She was the only one who could make me feel this way. She was the only person who could love me as much as I love her, maybe even more.

We both on Gwen's couch, her laying on my arms was perfect. Right there. Just right there. In a perfect afternoon while watching funny videos in YouTube. My chin rested on her shoulder, where I could smell the goodness of her hair. Her back was rested on my chest, where I could feel her own heartbeat on mine. My arms around her waist, and our legs intwined.

Gwen's laugh filled the air. Her smile was big, small dimples were on the sides. I could feel the vibrations when she laughs or talks. And there was a comfortable silence between us.

I stared at her for a moment. There I just noticed that there was something different about her. Something about her was very different that really made her beautiful, but I couldn't point my finger on.

"You look different." I said, removing her from the YouTube videos. She paused the video we were currently watching from her mini iPad and looked at me confusingly.

"What?" She asked.

"I don't know." I said honestly, shrugging my shoulders. "But something is very different about you." I told her.

"In a good way or a bad way?" Gwen asked again.

"In a good way, of course. But I really don't know what." I said.

Gwen just smiled at me and stared at me. I could tell that she knows what I'm talking about. She just smiled at me and said, "Look harder." Letting me have a chance to figure it out.

I mused and looked at her. I then studied her textures first. Her brown eyes shined in a different way, but it wasn't what I was looking for. Her cheekbones were showing as she smiled. I focused on her lips, that faint color of pink that I would kiss later. I touched her cheeks and smoothly rubbed. Then I tucked the falling piece of hair behind her ear, making Gwen giggle. I studied her again and smiled, realizing what she wasn't using.

"You're not wearing make up." I smiled. Gwen smiled harder and nodded her head. "You look better with no make up." I said honestly. "You should do that more often."

"I only use make up when I leave the house." She explained.

"You're way more beautiful without any make up." I told her. She smiled at me, maybe she never received compliments like that before. I leaned in and kissed her smoothly, her hands grabbing my neck.

"I love you, you know that right?" Gwen said. I smiled at her and kissed her one more time, showing her how much I love her.

As we pulled back, I bit my lip while smiling. She then took out her earphones and plugged it on her iPad. As she puts one earphone on my ear and another earphone on her ear, she started to hug me and closed her eyes. The song Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars was playing.

When I checked again, Gwen was already fast asleep, listening to the song. I smiled at her and started to caress her face. Her smooth skin felt good on mine. She was truly beautiful and I love that about her. I gently kissed the top of her forehead.

I tangled her fingers around mine, trying to be careful not to wake her up. I started to notice her small hand perfectly fitting my big hand. This moment was really the perfect moment. It wasn't special, but it was perfect.
