“Danielle! Sweetheart! Come down stairs and help clean the house before everyone arrives!” My mother yelled from the kitchen for the millionth time.
I quickly tied my brunette and blond hair back into a messy bun and rushed down stairs, grabbing an apron along the way.
You see, my family have been close friends with the Malik family for a long time. Zayn Malik happens to be a part of that family and also my closest friend.
Zayn tried out for the X Factor and managed to get to the finals, with the help of four other lads. In boot camp, he didn’t make it through but Simon Cowell decided to create groups from the solo-artists who didn’t advance to the next round and since then, he has been 1/5th of One Direction.
Because of this change in fate, I rarely get to see him. Though we talk through the internet and our phones, it’s really hard being like that with someone that is really close to you.
Since the whole band is having a break here before they go on their tour in America. My mother happens to be a perfectionist and wants the visit to be to her standards: absolutely perfect.
After three long hours of cooking, cleaning and trying to calm my insane mother down, I heard the doorbell ring. At that moment, that sound was the most beautiful sound in the world.
I jumped at the chance to get away from the craziness that has taken over my mum and raced to the front door at lightning speed.
When I arrived at the door, i did a quick tidy up before I opened the door. Don’t want to look a mess when I meet One Direction for the first time.
As I opened the door, I managed to get a knock on my forehead. Great Danielle! A klutz: as always.
“Danielle. Damn it I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean too” Zayn began to babble. Guessing that he was the one that knocked my forehead, I pulled him into a hug to get him to shut up. As usual, worked like a charm.
While we hugged, I felt different emotions. Not happy that he was back, but a stirring in my heart. From the moment we touched, I felt an electric charge go through me. Something was changing, I felt it.
As I left Zayn’s embrace, l hid behind him. You see; I was shy and for the first time in the last few minutes, I noticed that there were cute four boys behind him.
“Guys, this is my best mate; Danielle.” Zayn announced, acknowledging my existence. “Dani, this is Liam, Harry Niall and Louis, the rest of One Direction.” Zayn announced, pointing to each of boy as he said their names.
Out of nowhere, my mother yelled “Food, come and get it” which caused all of the boys to run inside at top speed, creating a miniature stampede towards me. If it wasn’t for Zayn, I’d be as flat as a pancake.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
The afternoon with boys happened to be the most fun I had in a while. After lunch, I became more of my random, kind self after getting to know the boys a little bit better, which helped because my mum was on my ass to get the house clean, so the guys were happy to help.
The only thing on my mind was the emotions I kept feeling for Zayn, not only when I first saw him but all afternoon, which really confused me. Is it fate? Or is it all in my head?
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Before I knew it, it was time for the party and everyone I knew was here. All the boys went in different directions while Niall decided to stay with me. While I was having a chat with him, I noticed someone talking to Zayn.
“Sorry Niall, but I leave you here for a bit?” I asked, not wanting to feel bad after staying with me. “Sure thing Danielle, but come back soon.” He answered in a slight mocking tone, but I couldn’t help but giggle at it.
Now I take back my statement earlier of me noticing someone talking to Zayn, more like full on flirting by the school slut; Sofia. And from here; it looked like that she had Zayn’s full attention. With her amazing shape and beauty: even in a very low cut top and extremely tight mini skirt , I could never get Zayn. No matter how hard I tried.
But when she went in for the kiss, I completely lost it. The tears began to fall and I rushed out of the house as fast as I could, not caring that I bumped into anyone. After I managed to leave the house, I began running to the little park down the road.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
I sat alone at the park. I don’t even know how long for. I sat on the swing and balled my eyes out, not caring how people thought of me and how I looked. I just got to let go of all the emotions pent up inside of me in one swoop.
Out of the blue, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I jumped out of the swing and landed on the ground. I heard a familiar chuckle above me, when I turned my head to see who it was; all i could say was that I was shocked.
“Hey Danni, why did you leave?” Zayn asked, pulling me onto my feet. By his tone, it seemed he was oblivious of my emotions.
“Running away” I mumbled, only loud enough for him to hear, even though we were the only ones here. “Why?” he ask, taken aback by my earlier response.
“Because I have all these emotions for you, which I had for awhile but they really started coming back today and seeing Sofia with you; with her being so pretty compared to me and that you two were about to ki-”
My babbling was interrupted by Zayn placing his lips on mine. Even though they were gone as quickly as they were placed, I could help feel giddy from it.
“I couldn’t care less about Sofia. She was drunk and wanted to get laid, which I think Harry took care of that but I have those same emotions for awhile. All the songs on the album that talked about love, my inspiration was you and I have the most beautiful girl in the world in my arms and that’s all that matters.” He told me, pulling me into his embrace as he talked.
From the way that he said it and held me, I knew those words were true.
