Zayn kept smiling to me the whole time. I kinda lost myself remembering of that day and I think he did the same thing inside his mind. We were just smiling at each other and nobody was getting why but at same, they understand the power of that picture. Every couple's picture has a story behind it: a kiss, a laugh, a smile, a hug, a word, a conversation. And in that picture, everything was a reason to smile. The fact we looked so young made it even more special and there we were, smiling and blushing to each other.
- I remember this day so well. – He started to say. – And your dress, Chris, Gosh..
- I wish I could still fit it. I still have it somewhere.
- I am sure you do.
- Don't even dare to say you want to see me wearing this again..I am sure..
- We want! – Cameran jumped to my side – we really want to see you wearing this!
- Okay..okay..you won but not now. I promise I will.
- I knew you loved it, I knew we would won. – Zayn started to say making silly faces. – I knew, I knew!
- Don't make me think twice, boy.
- Gosh, you were so young, our love birds. – Yaser said – do you have more pictures of both of you ?
I tried to give a look like "I am thinking" but I actually knew the answer for that question so well. There was a box in my room, hided, only with memories of both of us. I never looked at it too many times, I didn't want to feel my heart more broken, if it was possible to be even more, so I just hided it in the last door of my closet.
- Wait a minute. – I said. – You want to come with me ? – I asked Zayn.
He got up and followed my steps, holding my hand from behind. He stayed in the door looking at my room like he had never been there. I giggled knowing it wasn't true at all.
- Want to give me a help ?
- Why is this box so heavy ? – he said trying to bring it closer to his body.
- It's like our love.
- Is this all about us ?
- A box like this only could be ours.
- You never touched on it, right ?
- Actually..only twice in 4 years. When I brought it and right now.
- Why ?
- I just didn't want to miss you even more that I was. I didn't want to be even more broken. I put all of our pictures in here, I didn't know how that one came mixed in the other ones.
- Well, I know. – he said grabbing the box and walking to the door – It's the destiny.
That made me think. Without a word, we walked to the room, Zayn walked like he wasn't holding anything, if it was me, I would be in the floor of how tired I would be. The box was heavy and big, I didn't even know what were there, if we would find more than pictures, if there was any piece of clothes or even money.
Zayn opened it and coughed. That made me realize of how much time we hadn't seen each other.
- I think we may find spiders here and it's all of your fault.
- ZAYN! You better not scare me with that.
- Okay..Okay..so let me put everything out of this.
His family kept looking at him and to everything he was holding; Cameran sat next to me in the sofa, I was always looking if there was any spiders but nothing was there. There was diaries, pictures, unwrapped gifts that we gifted each other, and a old sweatshirt from him. I remember that sweatshirt. Zayn was smiling a lot, he was caring more about it than noticing if there was any spiders.
- So the sweatshirt was here! I tried to find it..you should get scared for this.
- I..I..you gave it to me, Z!
- Sorry babe – he came closer to be, hugging my leg – I didn't know where it was but I am sure it was luckier than me.
- What do you mean ?
- Explain to you later, babe..let's see those pictures!
He put the his s-shirt covering my legs while he was trading the pictures by everybody. He sat next to Cameran, smiling like a fool.
- Let's see what we find here.
He gave to me some pictures there was in the box, I looked around and Trisha was already laughing with Zi looking to some, Yaser kept smiling seeing the ones that Zayn gave to them and Zayn..Zayn was showing Zayn a picture. Our first picture together. I couldn't believe that one had to be seen by him first. I tried to control myself and not cry, not in front of them, not in that moment. Maybe it would be better if I could had seen those pictures before I knew that all of this would happen and at same time, maybe it wouldn't be.
The first picture was special and weird at same time. I remember to take it, I remember who took it: my mother. We still were friends in that moment but I already loved him more than that. It was my mom's birthday and she invited him to the big party that was in that house. I tried to look as best as I could, not because it was a party to many people and there would be paparazis but because Zayn would be there and I wanted to impress that boy. How amazing, right?
- It's time to the picture! – I remember to hear my mom saying this. – Zayn and Christine, come here my loves!
- Mrs Brunches..you know I don't like cameras a lot.
- Oh Zayn, it's just a little memory. I am sure you and Chris already took tons.
- No mom, actually we didn't. I respect his choices.
- Nah..your mom is right. Let's take one, together!
- Are you sure ?
- Yes! Maybe we can laugh after this..who knows ?
And he was right. Back to the future, I was laughing with tears in my eyes. Zayn looked at me, quite confusing but that smile didn't fade.
- Why are you laughing, babe ? You ok ?
- Because you were right.
