Tattoos & Flower Crowns {Z.M}

7. Merci

Authors Note- I've decided to expand the chapters of this book. I'm not sure, but it will be a little longer. Meaning, longer chapters and it will slow down. Hopefully you enjoy. (:

    Three months. Three months that Zayn and I have been together and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I've opened up about things, that I normally wouldn't and Zayn even cracked open his past for me. It's going really good. I've noticed a change in Zayn, he's been nicer to people. The first week or so when we started talking, he would snap at people, or curse them for even glancing in his direction. I mean he's still not a people person but he's getting there. I don't want him thinking I want to change him, but I think this change will be good for him.

    Right now, I'm listening to Zayn rant about his teacher yelling at him for having his phone out when it was just sitting on his binder. I don't really pay attention to his words. I pay attention to him. I watch as his eyebrows are furrowed, his hands making gestures with the words he's speaking. His eyes are a slightly darker color, but you wouldn't notice if you don't stare at his eyes all the time. He hasn't shaved in a a week or so, seeing the roughness already appearing. I smile gently, this beautiful man, is my boyfriend. He choose me over every other girl in school, in town. He choose me.

     "Baby are you even listening to me?" Zayn asks, a slightly annoyance hinted at his voice. I turn my attention onto his words before shaking my head. "No I'm not. I'm sorry, I was too busy admiring you." I state with a blush rising to my cheeks. Zayn's lips turn into a grin before he grabs my hand in his. He brings my palm to his mouth planting a kiss there. My eyes shine with so much happiness. My cheeks hurting from the huge smile on my face.

    "My aunt was wondering if you'll like to join us for dinner tonight. She wants you to bring your family." I state softly. I watch as his body tenses as I mention his family. I've noticed his family, is a very sore subject. I don't know why, but I'm curious about it. Zayn looks down at the steering wheel since we're sitting in his car. "My mom will probably come. My dad probably won't." Zayn states tightly and I turn my head to the side slightly looking at him.

    "Alright. There's no pressure on bringing them. Whatever your comfortable with then that's how we will do it." I state softly my thumb brushing along his skin. Zayn smiles slightly looking over at me. "Aren't I the one supposed to be comforting you, in hard times?" He asks softly, teasing obviously.

   "I don't mind being the guy once in a while." I joke softly. Zayn let's out a laugh before he pulls his hand away to start the car. He nods before smiling at me. A genuine smile. "I'll drop you off at your place, then I'll talk to my superiors and let you know princess." I nod when he says that before I buckle in.

     He drops me off, saying he will talk to his mother and father. I walk into the house making my way into the kitchen  and my aunt is in there preparing dinner. Connor is here too, surprisingly, as he stirs something in the pot on the stove.  "Are you joining us for dinner tonight Con?" I ask softly placing my bag down before making my way to the fridge. Connor smiles softly nodding. He turns around to face me after he covers it.

    "Yeah I am. Actually, I'm bringing a guest also." Connor states, a fond smile appearing on his lips. I raise an eyebrow, but before I can ask, he speaks up. "And I won't tell you. You'll just have to wait tonight." Connor states smugly before turning back around. I roll my eyes, before noticing how much food there actually preparing.

   "How many people are we feeding?" I ask with a small gasp. There's pots and pans filled with stuff and bowls filled with salads and chicken and such. My aunt laughs softly as I look at all the food surrounding the counters in the kitchen. "Well there will be us three, Connor's guest, Zayn and his parents. Plus Jay, my boyfriend." My aunt states a smile rising to her face as well as she mentions Jay. I've only met him once. But I hope he is good enough for Sadie.
