Zayn Imagine for LizbethMalik
"You have got to be f***ing kidding me" I breathed out while feverishly scrolling down the e-mail my English teacher sent me. How the heck am I supposed to write a ten to twelve page paper in one day? He said that it was due next week! He can't just change the date like this! That's what you get for procrastinating (y/n), If you wrote the paper two weeks ago when it was assigned you wouldn't be in this position. I slammed my laptop closed and people turned their heads to look at me with annoyed expressions.
"Sorry" I whispered, my cheeks starting to flush bright red. I got up from my chair and went back up to the counter to order another Caramel Latte. I always did my work in Starbucks, something about the atmosphere makes it really easy to work and some of the workers here aren't half bad looking either.
After ordering I waited in line for my drink. Suddenly the door bell started to jingle, signaling someone else was walking into the shop. I instinctively turned my head to the door to look at who came in. My eyes instantly locked with a pair of brown eyes and my jaw almost dropped to the floor.
Holy sh*t, that is the most attractive boy I have ever seen in my entire life. He must have caught me staring because he gave me a small smirk and waved. Crap crap crap crap (y/n), stop staring he probably thinks you're a creep just smile back and turn away.
"Caramel Latte for (y/n)" the barista called and handed me my drink. I thanked the lady and headed back to where I was seated before. I took one sip of my drink and opened up my laptop. Alright (y,n), this is crunch time.
I plugged in my ear phones and opened up my "That's my jam" playlist on Itunes. I turned down the volume to a soft whisper so I could work and clicked open Microsoft Word. While I was typing, out of the corner of my eye I saw the boy I smiled at earlier sit at the table in front of me and open up a book. I briefly looked up and met his gaze again.
He smiled wide and I snapped my head back down to my laptop. God dammit (y,n), you are such an idiot. Get back to work and don't look at him again, I scolded myself. I started to burn through my essay and an hour later I was already 7 pages done. I took a final sip of my drink and got up to throw it away and stretch my back.
As I was passing the table the boy was sitting at I felt him look up at me. I made sure not to look at him again to save myself from further embarrassment. I threw my cup in the garbage can and turned back around toward my table. I stopped dead in my tracks and looked at the boy who was not looking at me, in fact, but now sitting one seat up at my table. What the hell?
I slowly made my way back to the table and took my seat across from this mysterious boy. My eyes never left his face but this time he did not look up at me. Instead he was sat there with a small smile playing at his lips reading his book. I coughed to let him know I was sitting there but he did not even flinch. I sat there bewildered for a couple minutes still trying to get some sort of response from the boy with no avail.
"Um, excuse me?" I spoke hesitantly. The boy looked up at me for a second and closed his book placing it on the table.
"Hmmmm" He responded, looking amused.
"May I ask why you are sitting here?" I asked a hint of annoyance in my voice.
"Oh, so you don't want me to sit here?" He said while leaning his elbows on the table. I got a good look at him and damn he really is attractive. He has dark shaggy hair that falls just above his eyes that are framed with long feminine-looking eye lashes.
He is wearing a black and white Nirvana sweatshirt that is rolled up to his elbows. His right arm is full of tattoos while his left arm does not have any. He has a very dark presence to him that I am to die for and by the look of it; he is attracted to me as well.
"No, no I'm fine with you sitting here." I started "But I'm just wondering why do you want to?"
"Well you see, usually when I see someone attractive I can pull out some witty pick-up line to get them to talk to me but I just can't seem to do that with you... and I have no idea why" He stated matter-of-factly. "I really want to get to know you so I figured if I sat here without saying anything you would talk to me first, and my plan worked." He gave me a cheeky smile. "I'm Zayn, and you are?"
"(y/n), and yes your plan did work" I laughed and smiled back.
"Well I'm glad, (y/n). It was really nice meeting with you." He then got up abruptly and put his coat on.
"When will I see you again?" I asked confused that he was leaving so quickly.
"Soon" He smiled and took my hand up to his mouth and gave it a lingering kiss. "Very soon" He then turned around on his heels and exited the shop without looking back. What the fuck just happened? I looked around and turned back to my computer.
What does he even mean by "soon"? I was so confused. I closed my laptop and collected all of my stuff. I put my laptop back in my bag and cleaned off the table. I then got up to put my coat on and slung my bag over my shoulder. I was about to exit the store when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I turned around and to my surprise I saw a book lying on the chair Zayn was sitting at. That was the book he was reading, he must have left it here. I made my way to the chair and picked up the book that had a bookmark sticking out of it.
I flipped the book open and stopped at the page he was on. I took out the book mark which was really just a note card and turned it around. On the back was a phone number and a small note.
I truly do look forward to seeing your beautiful face again. Maybe at dinner? Xx -Zayn
I smiled and put the bookmark back in its page. I closed the book and looked at its cover.
"Hmm that's interesting..." I spoke to myself. "Why the heck is he reading a One Direction biography?"
