Zoe's POV

Enjoying a cold can of coke and celebrating the nice sunny weather and the fact that it's weekend again, Tamara, Danielle and I sit under the big birch tree in the park, cheering on the boys who are kicking a football around. 

The music from the stereo niall has brought, fills the air and blends with the sound of the singing birds. The air is thick with the smell of freshly mown grass. The smell of summer. 

Niall dramatically sings along to the music while Louis laughs hysterically at Harry's attempt of kicking the ball to him and past Liam. He's terrible, but seems to know it. 

Admitting his defeat, Harry joins us under the tree, and grab a can of coke from the stash in Louis' backpack. He looks nice in his shorts and black T-shirt, his hair ruffled, sticking to his temples. 

- "Better just join you ladies," he grins and lies flat down on his back, his arms behind his neck.

After awhile the rest of the boys sit down in the shadow of the old tree as well.
We talk about school and our plans for the weekend and the upcoming holiday, while Danielle clicks pictures of us.

I have dinner plans with Zayn tonight, but I don't feel like mentioning it. 

Niall wraps his arm around Tamara and she leans into him, and I give her a little smile which she returns.The others seem to notice it as well, though I'm happy they just let them be and don't comment on it.
Only there is ever so spontaneous but lovely Louis.

- "Are you two dating? I've seen you kiss," he asks, and Niall and Tamara both tense. They clearly haven't talked it through. Me and the others just cringe. You can literally cut through the awkwardness in the air.

- "Ok then, sorry I asked," he says, sounding just as cheerful as always, playing with the football.

After having spend the entire day in the park with my friends, I decide to take a quick shower before my date with Zayn. 

I do my make-up and create some waves to my otherwise straight hair, and put on a cute top and some skinny jeans. Good to go.

The doorbell goes off and I run downstairs, and open for him. He looks so handsome dressed all in black. After complimenting me, and kissing me, we get in the car and a bit later he pulls in at a romantic looking Italian restaurant. 

- "Looks nice," I say, slightly impressed.

- "Yeah," he chuckles. "It was actually Liam who recommended this place," he admits, looking down. 

- "So you're really, like friends again?" I ask. I hope they are, then at least one of my friends like him just a little bit. 

- "Yea I thinks so," he smiles. 

The doorman says something to Zayn in Italian as he opens the door for us, and we both just nod and smile.

- "He thinks you're Italian," I giggle.

- "Shut up," he says, amusement in his voice.
A blonde male waiter asks for Zayn's name and takes us to a table in the back, giving us each a menu. 

Having decided what to order, a young female waitress approaches our table with a note pad in hand. She doesn't look much older than us. 

- "Are you ready to order?" she asks, in a highly professional voice.

She scribbles our orders down on her note pad.
- "Thank you," she says, looking back up from her note pad, to collect the menus from our table. Her eyes widen when her eyes meet Zayn's, and her cheeks immediately redden. She recognizes him.

Suddenly I catch myself looking at her up and down. She's pretty without doubt. The way dirty blonde hair is tied up into a high ponytail, makes her blue eyes pop, and makes her high cheek bones even more prominent.

I look at Zayn who sits opposite to me with a raised eyebrow.
- "Can I help you?" he says, and I cringe at his rudeness, but also I enjoy it just a little bit. 

She blushes even more, and then her eyes meet mine, as she shoot me a glance that I can't read, and gets back to work.

- "You know her?" I ask, trying to catch Zayn eyes.

- "No, should I?" he says leaning back in his chair. 

- "Well she obviously knew you," I say, and finally his eyes connects with mine.

- "I don't know, just some girl I once met a party," he admits. One out of many apparently, I speak in my head.

- "Seemed like a little more than that," I snap at him, even though I didn't mean to.

- "Are you asking if I have slept with her?" I just look at him. I guess that is what I'm asking. "I don't know, maybe, can we not talk about this?" What does he mean "I don't know"? Is he telling me that can't even remember who he has slept with and who he has not?

We change the subject and talk about the upcoming holiday instead, as our food arrives. I tell him that I'm going to be spending a couple of days at Kayla's house, and then spend the rest at home. He hasn't got any plans.

It's dark and the air is cold and wet when he walks me to my door. But his hand is warm.
He plants a light kiss on my lips, and looks down at our entwined hands.
- "Actually I turned 19 today," he says. 

- "What!? Why didn't you tell me?" I say, but I can't stop smiling, at the thought that he decided to spend it with me.

- "I don't really like making a big deal out of it," he shrugs.

- "Well.. Happy birthday!" I say and pull him in for another kiss. "I'm not letting you in though," I joke.

- "No I wasn't.." he says in a serious tone, but smile when he realize I was just teasing him. "Funny,"
