Those Eyes... (Zerrie Fanfic)

Chapter 53 - Happy Ending

Chapter 53:

"You look so beautiful!" Taylor gushed at me. I looked at myself in the mirror, everything was perfect, the white gown, my curly hair, the glittering jewellery, even my nails. Everything looked and felt perfect except for those blue eyes which only reflected the anger I had in my because he left me again.

"I'm sure you'll win an award there.", my mum said.

"Zayn will regret turning you down again." said Selena.

They continued to express their opinions on whether Zayn will regret or not but I just didn't care any more. All I wanted to hear was his voice, telling me that he was joking and didn't mean anything last night or all those times before when he didn't come back. I hear Taylor come in.

"You should really meet that fan of yours you know." 

Oh here she goes again. I didn't care any more about that fan although I felt terribly guilty for keeping him waiting. Why can't he just go! This was all Zayn's fault that I was in such a bad mood.

"Give him some sort of token and tell him to go because I don't have time."

"Okay, I'll just give him some signed posters or an album." Taylor sighed.

"No! Here. Give him this." 

I handed my ring to Taylor, there was no point wearing it any more...

"That's real gold!" Selena exclaimed.

"Are you sure you don't want to meet him?" Taylor insisted.

"No."

It was getting late so we all walked outside to the car that was arranged for me. As I was getting in, I nearly had a shock because I could have sworn I saw Zayn outside. Could he...? No. It wasn't possible.

"Taylor?"

"Yes."

"Did you ever see that fan?"

"Yeah I did. Today, he is very good looking Perrie but I don't understand why John kept saying he was drunk or drugged up? He looked pretty fresh today."

"Did he tell you his name?"

"No. I didn't ask. I do remember John telling me that he used to be a teacher once."

Selena and mum instantly stopped what they were doing and started to pay attention. My own heartbeat was pacing up and down in confusion to my doubt. It couldn't be Zayn but somewhere in me was telling me it was him. It was him all this time and I didn't even realise. Instead of getting inside the car, I ran to the gate, the butterflies inside me were fluttering and getting excited to see him again. I smiled, knowing it was him. However, there was no one at the gate. Not even John.

I knew this was too good to be true. What was I thinking... 

.....................................................

I breathed heavily before stepping in the red carpet. Within seconds, I felt the urge to close my eyes shut due to the constant bright flashings of the cameras but I carried on, pretending to smile and act as if everything was perfect.

Suddenly, my shoes caught the end of my gown and I nearly tripped. I would have fallen if it wasn't for someone's support. His hands wrapped themselves around my waist and I grabbed hold of his shoulder to avoid falling over completely. I had my eyes clenched shut because of the embarrassment. 

"I told you not to wear heels."

I knew that voice! I immediately  opened my eyes and met the exact brown ones that had me hooked all this time since the day I walked into that English lesson.

"You're still clumsy as ever." he smirked.

I started crying. It felt as if I was dreaming of that same Zayn that I met as a student but I wasn't dreaming. It was really him!

"I knew you'd come running back."

"You were there! Why did you go away? And yesterday, why did you go away?"

"I am sorry Perrie. Sorry for that and sorry for all the times I've made you cry but forget about yesterdays, I want us to think about the future. Together."

"Perrie Edwards, will you marry me?"

Zayn knelt down on the floor and took out the gold ring. I nodded and several more tears poured out. Happy tears this time. After he gently put the ring on my finger, he leaned in for a soft kiss. 

"I always end up making you cry." Zayn said.

We laughed and pressed our foreheads together. I saw my mum and Selena smile at last for me. Jade and Waliyah were also here with the four boys, beaming with joy. Even Tricia was smiling for the first time for us. 

"I love you Perrie."

"I love you too Zayn. Always."

We locked our eyes into each other. The blue met the brown ones once more, those eyes that had started the whole thing. Zayn put his finger under my chin and pulled me closer for one more kiss. Cheers and claps echoed everywhere at our happy ending.

This one's for all of you who preferred a happy ending so hope you all like it and sorry if it's too soppy haha! ;) x
