Loved You First

Chapter 24 - Cold Feet

Zayn POV 

I ran outside expecting to still find Roger out there, but he was gone. He knew he didn’t want to see me again.

I turned back and wrapped my arms around Ang, I expected her to be a mess of tears but she was fine. 

“Come on guys lets all go back to the party and forget about it” She grabbed my hand and we all went back in and enjoyed the rest of the party. 

After the party was over we walked out said goodbye to Harry and Louis and I walked her to her car. 

“Im not gonna be able to see you for 2 days, Ang this is breaking my heart!” I said looking her up and down 

She threw her arms around me “I know babe” she kissed my cheek “But it'll all be fine”

She opened her car door and bent over to grab something from the passenger seat, it was her favorite beanie. 

“It’s gonna be cold so wear my beanie when your missin me” she said as she handed it to me 

I leaned in to give her a kiss but she threw her hand up “Nope we cant, traditions love” she gave me another hug and got into her car. 

I got into my car and started driving, all these thoughts were running through my mind, She cant stay with me we cant have sex and I cant even kiss her? 

I made up my mind, I was going to surprise her at her flat. I followed behind her car keeping my distance so she wouldn’t see me.

She pulled into her flat and I saw her get out of her car, I followed her hiding behind walls. 

She looked at her phone and giggled, I had sent her a text saying ‘I love you Evangeline, im at my flat now. 2 weeks 3 days till we can have a shag! Xx.’ 

I turned a corner quicker than expected and I was sure she saw me but she didn’t say anything she just continued in the maze of her complex.

We got closer to her flat and she started to undo her sari, removing the piece that hung over her shoulder.

Her back became even more exposed; she was so sexy I couldn’t take it. 

She reached over and pulled all of her hair to her right side showing her tattoo on her left shoulder. She then slid her right hand under her hair and lifted it so it slowly cascaded down her back. 

She opened the door to her flat and disappeared, I walked up to the door and before I knocked she opened it “You are rubbish at hiding Zayn!” 

“I knew you saw me.” I laughed 

“What are you doing here babe?” 

“I cant do this, I need to be with you Ang” I said pleading 

She stepped backwards inviting me into her flat but not saying a word, she turned and walked to her bedroom as I locked the door then followed behind. 

When I got to her room she was still unwrapping her sari, I walked up to her to help her out of it.

When I finally got her out of it she was standing in black lace boy shorts and she walked into the bathroom. 

I started to take off my pants and unbutton my shirt when she came out of the bathroom, wearing sweatpants and a see through white tank top. “What are you doing Zayn?” she chuckled 

“But I... we’re not?” I asked confused 

“Oh you wanted to have sex tonight? Haha no, Zayn remember we cant. I’m already breaking tradition with you even being here” She said as she walked over to hug me 

I rested my head on her shoulder as I hugged her, I laid down on the bed and she laid on top of me.

I slowly ran my fingers through her brown hair and watched her slowly drift to sleep. 

2 weeks later 

Evangeline POV 

I woke up and looked out my bedroom window taking in how blue the sky was and how everything seemed so peaceful.

’I cant believe today is the day’ I thought to myself. 

“Evangeline wake up, youll be late to your own wedding!” my mum shouted 

“I’m up mum!” I walked out to my living room and saw my mum my aunts Camilla and Eleanor. They jumped up and ran to me 

“its time to get married! Its time to get married!” Camilla yelled 

“Are you excited Ang” El asked 

“Yeah, im kinda nervous though!” 

Camilla leaned in “Why you’re already married” she backed up “You already had the Pakistani wedding, if I was you I would have been nervous for that one” 

“Yeah but everything was planned out for that one the reading of the holy book our vows. Zayn and I wrote our own vows for today! I’m not creative like him, my vows are going to be rubbish compared to his!” I said as I started pacing the living room 

“Ang, everything is going to be okay! Zayn loves you, we love you, everyone loves you. Im sure they’re great.” Eleanor said in her soothing voice almost making me forget that I was freaking out 

“Now go get dressed Ang, today is going to be an amazing day” Camilla said as she shoved me back to my room 

I walked to my room and started to do my hair and make up,

I could hear everyone chatting. Talking about when Zayn and I should have kids, when we should buy a home, all these suggestions Zayn and I had never talked about. 

Did I want kids? How many? When? Did Zayn? How would we pick a house? I started to feel faint, then my phone started to ring, it was Niall. 

“Oh my God Niall, I’m freaking out! I’m so nervous!” 

“haha Ang its okay” He said 

“You’re talking to Ang give me the phone” I heard Zayn she in his playful tone 

“No! You cant talk to her till you are at the alter, Harry get him off!” he shot back “I was just calling to tell you to calm down, I’m sure you’re freaking. Also, to tell you Zayn misses you! These past 4 days he has been losing his mind.” He got cut off again 

“I LOVE YOU EVANGELINE MALIK!” Zayn yelled 

“Go away Zayn! Why are you so stubborn! Go go go” Niall said “Well I guess that’s it now” He chuckled “See you later Ang! “ 

“Bye Niall, tell Zayn I love him too” 

All the nerves I felt before had suddenly fallen away, I stood looking in the mirror confident.

I was going to be with my husband today, the man that has loved me since he saw me in grade 6, the one I tried to hard to avoid. 

I was putting the finishing touches on my hair when my mum walked through the door. 

She was holding a blue jeweled hair pin. “I wore this when I married your dad, it matched my sari perfectly. I looked just like you do right now, nervous, I was scared, but its been the best 23 years of my life, even though your father is not easy to deal with by any means Evangeline, I could never picture my life without him” 

She walked over placing the pin in my hair “Its something blue, borrowed, old, and now new. I want you to keep it, my gift to you.” She started to cry as she stepped back to look at me 

I turned to face her “Mum you can’t cry, you’re going to make me cry. I’ve worked so hard on my make up mum please don’t” I started to whimper wiping a small tear from my eye 

“I’m sorry babe, come on lets put on your dress so we can go”

I walked out into the living room so everyone could help tie and button up the back of my dress. Afterwards, we headed for the limo. 

I started to feel nervous again…
