The boys album launch is tonight and I'm racing in the door from the airport. I had the judging gig in France and I'm just back .
I'm tagging along with mom tonight and the crew .
Oh and of course to support my boyfriend and my mates .

I haven't seen Zayn in 2 weeks , it's been 2 weeks since arriving back to London and he's been crazy busy .
Luckily I picked up a stunner of a dress in France last minute in Yves Saint Laurent that will hopefully make him swoon .

It's a long black strapless figure hugging dress to hide my cast with a criss cross back , because its long and a little oscar looking I have managed to get a thick gold chain in france and a gold statement skull ring from Ricky to add punk .
I don't want to go too formal but I don't want to have my brace on display in pictures so I have to add my own touches .

My hairdresser and makeup artist who I have worked with on photo shoots in the past are on hand to help .

My hair is down but pinned up on either side and back brushed so give it that edgey look .
My make up is amazing with gold liner outlining my eyes .
It's amazing I love it .

It's been 4 weeks since the accident so I have down graded one .
I have bought a walking stick .
Yea I know ... But it's not as bulky and I only need use it for another couple of weeks . Zayn doesn't know yet .

I picked up a shiny black walking stick from a vintage store In Florence while I was shopping with Ruby .
It's perfect , I knew it would look good with the dress and less bulky .

It's a struggle to get down the stairs but I finally make it , waiting at the bottom is Ricky and Mom .
Ricky's my wing woman while Zayn is mingling .
"You look amazing skylar oh my god , turn around , that dress is devine". Mom coos over me and I do the full turn batting my eyelash extensions at them .
"And the tatt is amazing , you can see it clearly in that dress ... and the other actually " Ricky winks .

James pulls up outside the venue and we are meet by a minder who I suspect Zayn has organised .
James is free to go now .
The venue is jammed with photographers and fans . on one side of the walkway is fans the other side paps . Mom makes a quick getaway up the walkway keeping her head down , but Ricky being Ricky takes my arm in hers and slowly walks up and I know she's totally taking the piss out off the situation , smiling and waving .

We stop a couple of seconds for pictures but I'm keen to get in there fast and see Zayn .
They arrived an hour ago , wouldn't you know we were late again.

I see the boys straight away taking photographs with various people .
Zayn has cut his hair it's shorter .
He looks hot posing and pouting for the cameras .
He's such a woman .
They are standing against a large canvas that's got the album picture on it .
I see them but they can't see me .
Mom is gone off mingling mixing business with pleasure so I'm left to mingle with Ricky who stops to chat with a Dj she's knows from around London .

"Skylar Carmicheal " A voice calls and I know it is straight away .
"Simon " I reply kissing his cheek .
"I heard about the injury but I here you are doing very well for yourself " he replies smiling .
"Thank you " .
I have always liked Simon , thou when I was younger he scared the hell outta me but I grew out of it .
"I hear your loved up with one of my boys " he raises and eyebrow and suddenly I want to ground to swallow me up .
"Don't look so frightened child I'm not giving you stick " he laughs
"Well in that case yes I am " I reply and he smiles .
"Go get a photo taken and il catch up with you soon I need a word with your mother we have a director here " he says and kisses my cheek goodbye .

I turn to Ricky to call her but she's too busy talking so I tell her i am off to mingle and I will be catch up with her soon.
I approach the photography corner and straightaway I'm urged on by there PR agent .

I catch Zayns eyes straight away and he grins widely at me .
"Hey baby " he says and wraps an arm around my waist .
"Hey " I reply through my teeth trying to smile for the cameras .
"You look amazing " he whispers into my ear then turns to smile again .

"You also look short which is not like you on a night out " he laughs
"In wearing canvas flats , hense the long dress " I whisper back into his ear and suddenly he lifts the hem of my dress and I'm mortified .

One photographer tells me to hold it up for a cheeky snap so I do but I can't stop laughing while Zayn points to my black canvas vans .
I'm mortified but he's having a great laugh at my expense.

"I'm going to kill you " I say in between poses .
"Ah no your not , you love me " he replies and looks down at me winking .
"Don't look so smug "
I shake my head and turn to walk away but he fallows me telling his agent they had there photos .

"Drink ?" he asks holding his hand against my lower back moving us thru the crowd .
"Yes please " I reply and he leads us to a private area where close family and friends sit .

I see his sister Donyia and his mother .
"I didn't realise they were here " I turn to Zayn who is smiling .
"Yea , last minute " he replies .

They stand to greet me with hugs and kisses when they see us .
"Oh how's the leg love " Patricia asks taking me from Zayn's grip and sitting me down next to her .
"I'm ok , healing " I smile back at her .


He sits next to me placing one hand on my knee and the other handing me a glass of champagne .
" only another couple of weeks , at least the crutches are gone " I laugh and look at Zayn who picks up my walking stick laughing at me as he examines it carefully .

"You wouldn't of come in crutches anyway babe don't lie " he teases and tips my chin up to lay his lips on mine. It's a short sweet kiss but I have waited almost 2 weeks for it .

"That's good news " Patrica says and Donyia starts up conversation about our holiday and what I have been up to since I was last at there's .


"Il be back in a minute babe , il leave ye talk . I'm nearly finished all the PR shit and il be back up shortly " he says kissing my lips softly again .

"Tell Ricky I'm here if you see her " I call back and he winks .

I settle into conversation with the girls catching up on all that's been happening . I must say Donyia has really come out of her shell around me and I suspect that she was just shy when we first meet because now she's all chat , maybe it's the alcohol but I don't care .
El isn't here and I so wish she was . She couldn't make it and I haven't had time to catch up with her since the holiday .

Zayn reappears with my mom in tow About an hour later . He smiles and winks my way .
Parading my mom around .
Oh god I hope they get on ,
He introduces them and they sit for a drink .

"Your a suck up , bringing mom up when you knew I would " i tease him and his arms snake around my waist holding me against him .
He laughs .
"I have missed you so much " he says and kisses my forehead .

"Me too , you finished ?" I ask in hope.
"Yes I am all yours " he replies .
"Just how I like you all mine " I say and reach my head up to kiss him again , this time his lips linger on mine for a moment and i have missed this , he is about to pull me up onto his lap until Harry makes an appearance .

"Alright it's only been two weeks ye have all night to make out " he scoffs and bends to kiss my cheek greeting me .
"Two weeks is too long " I reply and Zayn kisses my cheek .

"Courtney my sweetheart , the second love of my life " Harry winks flirtely at my mother who stands to greet him scoffing .
He's just a flirt its embarrassing .

Zayn is in stitches at Harry and his forwardness and I scowl at him .
"What ? if you turn out anything like your mother when your older il be a happy man " he says laughing and I hit his arm rolling my eyes .

"I'm joking , you'll be the hottest milf " he says his lips against my cheek and his cheesiness makes me laugh too .

"There going to play the album shortly" he tells me .
"Oh nice one , can't wait to here it all " I reply still sitting snugly beside him staring at him all goofily .
He peaks the top of my nose .


The Dj starts up with the boys album.
I can't really dance so Donyia and I stand up by the railing and watch everybody instead .
Zayn stays dancing with me , his arms around me as I just dance a little on the spot trying not to put to much pressure on my knee .
I love to dance but this is annoying .

The song that Zayn had hummed before starts to play and it's *the best song ever * .
"This is the song remember " he says into my ear. I nod and sing along and smirks at me.
"How do you no ?" he asks accusingly but a smile plays on his lips.
I shrug at him .

"You've had a sneaky pre listen at home before it came out haven't you ? You know that's illegal " he teases
"Oh and what are you going to about it?" I say .

"You'll see later , in bed " he threatens and my lower half does a loop the loop.

"Oh I can't wait " I smile and his lips are on mine again but this time hard ..
