When One Direction fell in love with me

Chapter 6 : Meeting Zayn

Laura

When we arrived, there was already a long line waiting in front of the club. We waited like 10 minutes and, as we were getting near the entrance, I saw a guy going out of the club and taking out a cigarette that he lit up.

Usually I'm not very attracted to guys who like to smoke but this one had some mysterious thing that I couldn't put my finger on and that made me unexpectedly attracted to him. I didn't realized I was staring at him until his eyes locked with mines and I quickly looked away, embarassed because I was caught staring at a stranger.

Lisa caught my attention by hitting me in the ribs with her elbow, signaling me to take out my cards for the bouncer. Of course, she got in and said she would wait for me inside. As I was fidgeting with my purse to find the fake ID that my cousin had given to me earlier, a deep masculine voice said from behind me :

- It's okay man, she's with me.

And just like that, the bouncer let me in and I felt a hand on my lower back leading me in.

I didn't even have time to turn around to thank the guy who helped me that my cousin dragged me to the bar, diving into the crowd of people.

- Told you it would work couz! she screamed over the loud music. She didn't even let me the time to tell her what happened before she had ordered us 2 shots of vodka each.

As I was downing my second one, I felt a hand on my lower back, making me turn around to see who it was. And there, next to me, stood the guy that I saw earlier smoking outside. He leaned in and said in my ear, making me blush :

- I've been searching for you everywhere since you left me at the entrance.

He brushed his hand against my shoulder all the way down to my wrist, making me shiver.

- I-eh-... I stuttered, looking where Lisa had been not even 2 seconds ago, but she had disappeared.

- Can I buy you a drink? he asked, his hand taking mine as the alcohol slowly started to make its effects on me.

I just nodded and he ordered 2 shots of vodka. We drank one each as he kept his hand in mine. He didn't seem to notice all the attention he was getting from the girls, his eyes never left me, almost making feel uncomfortable. I hadn't notice that he had tattoos earlier because he had a leather jacket on, but now that I see them, it made me even more curious, wanting to learn about him.

I was starting to feel a bit dizzy but it felt great. I heard a remix of the song Up All Night, I cried out :

- Oh my god I love this song!! Before going on the dancefloor and starting to dance.

He followed close behind me, his hand never leaving mine. And then he started to dance with me, putting his hand on my hips as I put mine around his neck. It's probably the alcohol that took away my shyness because usually I would never dance like that with a guy that I barely know.

I closed my eyes, losing myself into the music, as he put his forehead against mine. But what I wasn't expecting was to suddenly feel his lips on the side of my neck, making me gasp in shock. And then I felt them brushing against my ear as he asked :

- What's your name pretty girl?

- Laura... I whispered in his ear as I felt his lips moving along my jawline, making me shiver.

And then his lips were on mine. I didn't even take the time to process what was happening that I was kissing him back. Our lips were moving in sync, his body pressed against mine, and the alcohol made me lose track of the time.

Just as his tongue was asking for entrance, I was yanked away from him by... My cousin who was already pulling at my arm, away from the guy and screaming in my ear that we had to hurry or we would be late for our curfew. I was too drunk to be able to stop her so I just looked back behind me but I couldn't see him anymore through the crowd of people.

But as we were getting near the coat check, I felt a hand on my arm stopping me in my tracks. So I turned around to see him standing there. He put his hand on my cheek and leaned in.

- Let's meet again next week. Here. Same time. He said in my ear.

I just smiled and nodded. He beamed and whispered :

- I can't wait. He then pecked me on the lips before disappearing into the crowd.

Lisa, who hadn't seen anything, handed me my coat and we headed outside to the taxi that was waiting for us.
