We're both on Cloud Nine- Zayn Malik Fan Fic

10: Maybe it's the Weather

~Rydell's POV ~

"Come on. Come on. Come on." I whispered to myself jumping up and down as the taxi driver pulled up the driveway. It was mid morning when we arrived in Canada. He was pulling up rather slow because the driveway was still icy. I'm guessing Charlie hasn't gotten here yet.

"Calm down will ya?" Zayn said. He's been an absolute prick since we got off of the plane. Its probably because he's jet lagged.

Right when the taxi came to a stop I jumped out and opened the trunk not bothering to wait up for Zayn or the taxi driver. I ran over to the garage and put in the pin to open the garage door. Once it opened I ran and laid flat on my stomach to retrieve a small metal magnetic box from underneath the car. In the box was the keys to the house.

Charlie never really liked carrying the keys around and felt that putting "underneath the mat" or "in the mailbox" was too cliche. That's way he put it in a magnetic box underneath the car.

I grabbed the keys and opened the door, turning left and walking into the kitchen. I ran to the hallway and turned on the heater.

With so much excitement I had forgotten  my suitcase in the garage. I went back and saw Zayn walking into the kitchen, hauling my suitcases and his.

"Here forgot your suitcase." he mumbled

"Come on. Lets get you settled in the spare room so you can sleep your life away." I  teased

I took my suitcases from him and we went upstairs. I showed him the door to Charlie and Nicole's room, My room, and finally the spare room.

"Well that's the closet, the door to your bathroom and yeah. If you need more firewood for your fireplace there should be some out back but I think Charlie is gonna get more when he gets here. So yeah I'll be in my room if you need anything."

"Wait!" he said

"What?"

"Hot Chocolate?" he smiled

"Well we need to go into town to buy it at the market and I am kinda hungry so maybe we can grab a bite?"

"Ugh fine." he said and got up from the bed.

We went downstairs and got the car keys off of the key rack. Since Zayn didn't know his way around I would be the one driving.

"Do you know how to drive?" he asked

"No." I joked

"Are you serious?"

"I'm kidding!" I said as I put the gear into reverse.

"God almighty please be with me." he whispered as I pulled out of the garage

I parked on the side of the road across the street from the cafe we're gonna eat at.

"I'm alive." he said wiping his forehead with the back of his hand.

"Come on! It wasn't even bad!"

"You're right. It was horrible."

"Your such a dick." I said as I punched his shoulder.

We got out of the car and walked into the cafe. We were greeted by a girl about my age. She walked us to the back and sat us at a booth.

"What would you like to drink?" she asked Zayn as he was still standing up. He was going to sit across from me but he pushed me a little and sat next to me.

"What do you want Ry?"

"Chocolate milkshake."

"We'll have a chocolate milkshake and a hot chocolate." he said avoiding her gaze
