Strong (Zerrie FanFiction)

Chapter 3

Perrie's Pov

"Eeeekkkkk!" the three girls screamed into my ear. 

"Gosh guys, calm down.... It's just a date.... I am not even sure that we are even going to become a thing, so don't make a big deal out of it..." I said, shrugging.

"Pezzz!!! You are going on a date with the Zayn Malik!!" Jesy yelled.

"Fangirl much?!" I joked.

    Jesy playfully punched me. Zayn had texted me 'I'm going to pick you up at 8:30, we are going to dinner and then ice skating!! :-) See you then love, excited for our date!! -Love, Zayn <3" He put a heart at the end of his name!!! Soo cute!! I couldn't wait for our date, it was snowing outside, so I realized that I had to wear something warm, but yet something cute for dinner. 

"We need to get you dressed, something warm...." Jade said, as if reading my mind.

"Yep, we are going to dinner first, then ice skating..." I said, Jade tugging me arm. She dragged me upstairs and placed me down on the bed. She fished into the closet and picked up a black lacy dress, it was long-sleeved. She placed a black lacy sweater and then placed some leggings underneath. She passed me some black-heeled boots. She tossed me a winter coat, knee-length and it had fleece inside. She gave me a white woolly scarf and tossed me some leather gloves. Then, she gave me some furry earmuffs. I might have gone overboard, but boy was I warm! I looked at the clock and it read 7:45. He was going to be here soon. Before I went downstairs, I applied make-up. I put some pink, unnoticable blush and some red lipgloss. I was going for a natural look. 

"Perrie, Zayn's car pulled up the driveway, get your butt down here!!" Leigh-Ann yelled. 

"Coming!!!" I yelled back. 

    I quickly grabbed my purse which contained some chapstick, because of the weather, and my phone, also, my wallet.... I wasn't going to let Zayn pay for everything. I made my way downstairs and Zayn was waiting, sitting on a couch.

"Hey Zayn!" I said, a little too perky. 

"Oh, hey Perrie" he said, getting up. 

    He was wearing a fleece jacket with skinny jeans. He must be freezing!! Or is it that guys just don't like to wear winter clothing.... His loss... Eh, whatever...

"Shall we?" he said, linking his arms into mine.

"We shall...." I said, grinning foolishly.

    The girls were just squealing. Zayn led me outside, I turned back a motioned a "Dial-it-down" signal to them. They kept on squealing, well at least Leigh-Ann and Jade were, Jesy was just mouthing something to me, I squinted.. She said "Go get em'"  

    Zayn led me to his car and we drove off. He switched on the radio and immediately, our song "What Makes You Beatiful" popped up. I just chuckled at Zayn's reaction.

"I still can't believe that we are on the radio... I know that our song has been playing for like, months already, but it seemed like it was just yesterday when we were on the X-Factor...." he said, his eyes were fixed up on the road. 

"Yep, us too..." I said, looking down and playing with my hands. 

"We are going to Olive Garden... then we are going Ice skatin'" Zayn said.

"Oh, ok, I got your text..." I said, blushing.

"Cool, well we are here!" Zayn said, pulling up the car to the Olive Garden parking lot.

    Zayn got out of the car and opened up the car door for me. Such a gentlemen. I mouthed "Thank-you" and we linked arms. He guided me to the front door. He lead me to the Receptionist. 

"Hello Sir, how may I help you?" the woman said, not even looking up to see who it is.

"Um, private room for Malik?" Zayn said.

Then the lady looked up. She had a huge smile on her face, I'm guessing that she is a fan...

"Oh, hello Mr. Malik, follow me..." she said, winking at Zayn.

I felt a hint of jealously, but I let it go. The lady guided us to a back room where the lights were dimmed and there was a seperate table, with a spotlight shining on it. There were only two chairs and there were cute sunfloweres in a vase on top of the table. It was sooo perfect!!!

"Wow..." I said, speechless. It was so private, no paparazzi, no fans, just me and Zayn. I wasn't really bothered by the fans... but it would be nice to have some privacy during our date... 

"I know, I called in early reservations and I told them to make everything perfect!" Zayn said, grabbing a hold of my hand.

"Awww, that was so sweet!" I said, kissing Zayn's cheek. 

The receptionist cleared her throat, obviously jealous. She lead us to the table and handed us menus. 

"Call me if you need me..." the lady said, winking at Zayn and walking away.

"What's her problem?" Zayn asked.

"I dunno, probably somethin' is wrong with her eyes..." I said, chuckling. Zayn chuckled along as well.

Zayn's Pov

    This date was going great soo far! Well, except for the fact that the receptionist was flirting with me. Everytime that happened, Perrie would just turn bright red for a secound, then fluster back to its original color. I could tell she was jealous, but just a little bit. She dosen't need to worry though, my heart only wants Perrie, nobody else can take her spot in my heart....

    After we finished dinner, we were going to go ice skating. I grabbed  a hold of Perries hands'. I was about to place the money down for the bill, but Perrie insisted on paying for it.

"No Perrie, I am the one who is paying..." I said, pushing her money away.

"No Zayn... Fine, let's half it..." She said, placing her money down.

    Perrie is like no other girl. No one else would ever offer to pay. All the other girls' I have dated had always let me buy expensive things for them, they always let me pay the restarant bill, they never insisted to pay, ever!

"Ok, fine, let's half it... But I am paying for the ice skates and the fee to get in..." I said, putting 25 dollars down, Perrie was also placing down 25 dollars.

"No, Zayn, we are halfing it again...." Perrie said, playfully punching me.

"C'mon Perrie, this is a date... I am suppose to be paying!" I said, playfully punching her again.

"Zayn... I don't want you to pay for everything... I need to pay for things too..." she said, we were walking up to the car.

"You know, your not like any other girl that I have ever met..." I said, opening the car door for her.

"I get that alot..." Perrie winks.

What is that suppose to mean????
