Strong (Zerrie FanFiction)

Chapter 7

A/n: Hey guys! I know that not that much people are even reading this story... But thank you to everyone who is reading it! If any of you happen to ship #camarry (Camila Cabello and Harry styles) then read "story of our lives" which was created by... ME! Again, thank you for still reading and I am sorry for not updating... I have been quite busy... Being that my math teacher just gives us a ton of algebra homework... And me having tutoring and piano/guitar lessons... Life can be so difficult sometimes... Eh!

Perrie's POV

We were all seated at the table, currently waiting for Simon. Me and the girls cooked up a fresh batch of Irish Soda Bread... Which Niall had suggested, and we also cooked Chicken Cutlets with a siding of freshly tossed salad. We had tea on the side.

We were silently sitting at the table, I was seated next to Jade and Zayn and Niall and Leigh-Anne were across from me. Simon was going to be sitting at the edge of the table, facing all of us. We haven't had a huge dinner like this before... Unless it is a special occasion. I really hope this so-called talk that Simon is having with me and Zayn is about him supporting our relationship... Or something along the lines of that. Simon is like family to me, and he is basically an uncle to the boys... So if he isn't fond of me and Zayn's relationship... We have to respect his decision.

About 5 minutes later, Simon arrived...

"Sorry for the inconvenience lads... I just had a Long phone chat with L.A Reid... We discussed new upcoming artists..." Simon explained.

"It's fine..." We all had replied, in unison.

We all 'pigged out.' Me and Niall had about 5 pieces of chicken cutlets and 6 batches of tea. We then, had about two pieces of the Irish soda bread, which Niall appreciated.

"This meal was splendid girls... Now, if you'll excuse us... I have to have a quick chat with Perrie and Zayn." Simon said, getting up from his seat.

Me and Zayn followed him out of the dining room and into a den. Simon closed the pair of French doors separating the den from the hallway. He left the windows open ajar and then took a seat on a leather recliner. Me and Zayn took a seat on the sofa... Which was far more comfy that the recliner. I quickly grabbed a toss pillow and placed it on my lap... My elbows rested on the pillow. Zayn, on the other hand, placed his arms behind his head. We stared at Simon, curiously and waited for him to tell us 'EVERYTHING.'

"I have heard quite a lot of news and lately on twitter... Something called 'Zerrie' is trending... Care to explain?" Simon nonchalantly asked us, staring at us amusingly.

"W-We are u-um..." I stammered.

"We're dating!" Zayn blurted out, his hands soon covered his mouth after realizing what he just said.

"Just as I suspected... That is... Perfect!" Simon clapped.

Me and Zayn stared at each other, highly confused.

"Ha-ha! This is great publicity for both of you... But I am still afraid that you, Perrie will get hate! Is it okay if you guys dial it down? I understand that you guys are two teenagers... Just falling in love... But I don't want you guys to go public just yet..." Simon explained.

I nodded, understandingly... But Zayn still hasn't said a word yet.

Finally, Zayn spoke...

"I agree with you simon... I am afraid that Perrie will get hate... But can you at least tell me when we can go public?" Zayn asked.
