Ariana's POV.



"Hey." A familiar voice greeted as I was staring out the window. I turned and saw...


Jordan.


My eyes widen. What the hell was he doing here? I wanted to enjoy my time with Zayn since he'll be leaving on the other day and I'm not letting Jordan ruin this.

"Why hello, Jordan," I said sarcastically, "What brings you here?"

"Just getting coffee," he smiled and looked at Zayn who was actually watching us talk, "Who's your friend?"

"Oh. Um Jordan, this is Zayn, my friend. And Zayn, this is Jordan, my friend." I watched them do the guy hand shake thing, I don't know. 

"Mind if I sit here for a while?" he asked. Shit, he is ruing my day already.

I looked at Zayn, waiting for him to respond to Jordan's question. I didn't want to let Jordan stay a while but I'm guessing that Zayn would let him sit with us because Zayn thinks he's my friend.

"Oh sure, man. We won't mind at all. Right, Ari?" Zayn smiled at us. I just nodded.

Jordan took a chair and sat with us.

"Zayn. You look kinda familiar..?" Jordan said trying to make a conversation.

"Oh, I do?" Zayn asked playfully.

"Yeah, I think I've already seen you somewhere." Jordan mumbled trying to think.

And as he was thinking a waitress came to our table holding a paper cup, "Excuse me sir, did you order this coffee?"

"Oh, yes. Thanks," Jordan smiled as the waitress leaves, "Well, I gotta go guys. It was nice to meet you Zayn. Bye Ariana. Take care, you both!" he said bye and left with his coffee. Thank God he left quickly.

How can he act like that? Moved on so quick? Good. Well, after all he has someone else. The one he cheated me on with. Ew.

I let out a big sigh, phew. Zayn noticed.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

I cleared my throat, "That wasn't my friend Zayn."

"Really?," He raised a brow at me, "Who was that then?"

I closed my eyes deciding if I should tell him or not. Well. I should tell him because I told him that Jordan wasn't my friend.

"That guy was my.. my ex."

"Really? Wha-what happened?" he asked with wide eyes.

"Remember when we... um.. accidentally kissed in the hotel? After I exited your place, he texted me asking if we could meet. So.. we did. And he confessed to me that he had been cheating on me and he was only using me for money and fame."

"Whoa. He's such a dick." he snickered.

"I know right," I laughed, "What a dick."

Zayn probably noticed that I didn't like talking about it so he changed the subject, we talked about our family, friends, fans and other stuff. When our order arrived, I insisted Zayn that I would pay for our order. But he insisted on paying for us, there was nothing else I could do so I let him pay. I told him that I'll be the one to treat him next time. If there is next time. Good thing he knew how to use the money here.

We were done eating at almost 2pm, so we decided to go to a park which wasn't that crowded. There were only a few kids that obviously didn't know who we were, so we sat on a bench and watched them play.

"You know," Zayn said breaking the silence, "This may be the last day we may see each other."

"Like... forever?" I asked sadly.

"No. I meant we're heading back to London in 2 days." he mumbled placing his hand on top of mine.

My eyes landed on our hands and we stayed silent for a while.

"I wish we could see each other again." he smiled, and sat closer to me.

"We will, Zayn. We will." I smiled.

He slid his arm around me and he suddenly hugged me. This was somehow shocking but I didn't stop him anyaway.

"I'm going to miss you Ari." he whispered.

I hugged him back. I didn't know if our position here in a public place was cute or awkward, though there are only a few people. 

"I'll miss you,too Zayn."

He pulled away, "My god, I'm so awkward. Sorry for that." he blushed.

"It's okay Zayn." I laughed.

"It's still early. What else should we do?" he asked, changing subject.

I looked around and saw a swing. My eyes stayed at the swing for a while and I think Zayn noticed.

"Wanna go to the swing?" he chuckled.

His accent is so attractive, even that small laugh he just did, and I can't believe I'm just noticing that. I smiled at my feet and said 'sure' to Zayn. We walked to the swings and sat on them.

At first we just silently swing ourselves but after a few minutes of just swing ourselves, Zayn stood up and went behind me.

"Zayn, what are you doing? I can swing myself." I laughed. He only responded by giggling and pushing me some more.

"Zayn Malik! I swear to God if I fall, I'll-.."

"You're not going to fall. I'm here. I'll catch you."

I don't know how those words managed to make my cheeks heat up and turn red. Will you catch me if I fell for you?

"Of course I will." he laughed, "I will catch you if you fall."


Wait.


What?

"Oh my god. Did I say that out loud?" I snapped. My cheeks were now more red than before. That was totally embarrassing. I didn't know that I actually stated my thoughts.

"Well, yes you did." he laughed again.

"Why are you laughing? That wasn't even funny!" I slightly yelled.

"I know, I know. It wasn't funny, it's cute."

And with that he accidentally pushed me too hard making me go high on the swing. I held tight because it felt like I'm going to fall. Though I held tight, I lost my balance and fell from the swing which made me close my eyes.

I waited to hear a thud but I didn't hear it. I opened my eyes and found myself safe on Zayn's arms. He was carrying me bridal style. How did that even happen?

"Told you I'm gonna catch you." he smirked. Why was he so cute? I found myself blushing so hard because I was so embarrassed and what Zayn had just said was so cute

"You're so cute when you blush." he bit his lip.

I blushed harder than ever!

"Um." I gulped, Zayn noticed my expression because of the fact that he's not putting me down yet. That made him put me down. Now that was awkward.

Zayn pulled his phone from his pocket and checked the time. I glanced at his phone and saw that it was only half an hour left until 4pm.

Zayn suddenly took my hand and he ran pulling me with him.

"Zayn? Where are we going?"

"I don't know yet." he laughed.
