Chapter 23:

Zayn was still sleeping on top of me, his warm breath soothed my pale neck time after time, my hands slid up his back to dip into the brown ruffles and started stroking the luscious soft hair. I observed my adorable angel, wondering what dream could possibly be getting his attention, captivating him in pure innocence. I envied that dream. I wished I could wake up to this beautiful sight everyday...

"Perrie..." he murmured. 

"Good mourning sleeping beauty."

Zayn chuckled. "Can you stay longer?"

"Hmm... Now why would I do that?"

"Because -

Zayn stared sucking my neck gradually moving downwards to my stomach, leaving trails of warm and soft kisses along the way until he reached my sex but before he could do anything, I jumped out the bed, put my knickers and buttoned his shirt on, biting my lips with a triumph smirk playing on my face. 

"Don't be a spoilsport."

"I need breakfast." I said, nipping in to peck his lips.

"Make me some eggs then." 

"Who said I was making eggs?"

"Listen to your teacher like a good girl now." I rolled my eyes.

"Sunny side up please!" he shouted, pulling the duvets up and snoozing off to sleep again. What a lazy bum!

I cracked the egg on the pan and waited for it to cook, I though of trying to make the most of this one time opportunity with him so I decided to do something romantic with the breakfast. I fiddled the kitchen draws for a heart cutter, luckily he did have one and then I cut the toast with it, popping in the cooked egg after. I put some strawberries inside a bowl and sprayed it with whipped cream. The breakfast tray was ready, orange juice, strawberries with whipped cream, egg and toast but it needed something more. I went outside and picked a fully bloomed rose and ran back in, only to find Zayn already there.

"Did I ruin your surprise?"

"Yes!" I moaned.

"Come here gorgeous." Zayn swooped me to him and planted a kiss on me.

"You look so tempting in that..."

"No, I worked hard preparing this. You will not eat anything else mister!"

"We have time for that but first..."

Zayn picked me up and rested me on the counter and started unbuttoning my top when out of nowhere the door slammed shut...

"Zayn?" Tricia's voice boomed through the house.

"Oh my God! She can't see you like this!" Zayn said, sounding extremely panicked.

Before I could utter a word, Zayn picked me up and swiftly put me inside the pantry, kissing me quickly before closing it shut. 

"Zayn! I just..." 

There was a pause.

"What's all this...?"

"Erm... Breakfast." Zayn said.

"Yes I can see that but why have you cut the toast like that?"

"I was being creative..."

"It's a bit cheesy don't you think?"

Wow, even without intending to, she managed to pick on me. I waited for Zayn's reply, hoping he will defend me...

"It's a beautiful thought..." Zayn said softly, I could imagine his eyes admiring my effort with that precious smile. A blush crept on my cheeks, flattered by his sweet praise. I hadn't realised the sudden silence until Tricia spoke with a hint of obvious suspicion.

"You've got a girl here haven't you?" 

Panic built inside me as I soaked in her words, she knew or she was just going to find out! She shouldn't be sniffing her nose in Zayn's business though, he is a grown up for God's sake! And neither should you be sleeping with your teacher, the negative part of my mind taunted, reminding me I was the one stepping over the boundary. 

"Stop it mum!"

"Why is there a rose on the floor? You have got a girl here, just admit it. I'm not going to kill her." 

I wasn't so sure about that... I heard footsteps heading in opposite direction to where I was. Oh no! She was going to the bedroom! I was counting on Zayn to stop her but instead he opened the door and hugged me tightly.

"Zayn! Go stop her now!" I whispered loudly.

"She's not going to find anything. Don't worry." 

"My necklace is there Zayn. Bertha's necklace!" I cried, tears already losing hope.

Tricia was storming back, I didn't see any point in hiding but Zayn locked me in the pantry room again. 

"How old was she?"

"Who?"

"You know who?"

"Er 24!" Zayn blurted.

"Really? You're telling me a 24 year old just lost her virginity and vanished leaving her clothes behind?"

I can't believe it. She must have seen the blood. How could she invade Zayn's privacy like that?! 

"Don't be shocked mum. Some -

"Stop lying Zayn. I can always tell with your lies."

"I am not lying."

"Oh really. Then what is this!"

"It's grandma's necklace, what else?"

"Please Zayn, I am not dumb. I saw you put this on her at mum's lunch!"

I felt as if someone had stuck an arrow in my heart, piercing me slowly and painfully, she knew...

"I am right aren't I?"

Zayn didn't reply.

"It is her." Tricia cried.

"Mum please leave."
