If Only She Knew

Chapter 74: i'll always love him

Zayn's Point Of View

I woke up around 3:30 am for no reason. The room was pitch black. I turned my body around and saw Mia sleeping peacefully away, she had her body turned so she was facing me. I smiled as I watched her steady breathing. I noticed her naked body was shivering, the blanket had slowly fallen down over her arms.

Without disturbing her I shuffled my body closer to her. Pulling the blanket up over her shoulders. I carefully wrapped my arms around her body, letting the heat from my own travel to hers.
Without opening her eyes she snuggled herself into my chest. I was taken by surprise but in a good way. I gently brushed away the loose strands of her curls that fell in front of her face. She looked so beautiful like this, sleeping peacefully, dreaming hopefully about something good.

She's a nice girl. Intelligent, kind and just simply breathtaking i'd be lying if I said that I never thought about getting with her but she had a boyfriend and that was impossible but now... I have to admit i was so happy when I heard she broke up with him although they love each other deeply but I believe she deserves better. She deserves to be with someone who's willing to love her forever and not cheat on her.

I looked at the ceiling sighing softly. Why am I awake again? Why can't i fall back asleep? Normally I would be fighting everyone for waking me up and I would go back to sleep but now I'm lying here and not being able to fall asleep? It doesn't seem like me.

I closed my eyes trying to fall asleep but after minutes of pretending to be sleepy I gave up and reached over for the remote control and turned on the TV in front of the bed and lowered the volume quickly so I won't wake up the sleeping girl in my arms. I flipped through the channels and stopped once i saw a movie called Stash House on, although it was already midway through the movie I still watched it

Few minutes later the bad guy in the movie was running after the good guy as he got inside the house and his wife clicked on the button to close the door and I without noticing let out a squeal as he shot the good guy causing Mia to stir in her sleep and groan

My eyes glued to the top of her head as I froze not daring to move one muscle, her eyes opened slowly as she looked at the TV confused then her eyes met mine "Zayn?" She muttered touching my chin letting her fingers wander downwards to my jaw and chest

I smiled sadly at her "I didn't mean to wake you up I'm sorry, love, go back to sleep" I softly said

She brought her palm to my cheek and shook her head "it's okay don't worry about it. Are you alright?" She asked adjusting her chin on her other palm as she put it on my shirtless chest

I nodded "I just couldn't go back to sleep so I thought I'd watch something that's all" I replied looking back at the TV

She hummed pressing her lips under my jaw as i let out a throaty quiet groan causing it to vibrate against her lips and i tightened my grip on her lower back, she sucked on my skin gently and ran her hand up and down my chest "do you want to go back to sleep or do something else?" She asked making eye contact with me

I licked my lips and shook my head laughing a bit "no it's alright. Don't stop" She smirked straddling me and pressed her lips under my ear before leaning towards my lips as she left a tender kiss and tried to pull away but everything about her was so intoxicating that, I couldn't let her get away that easy. I grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her back against me as I deepened the kiss. My mind shut off as I focused wholly on the softness of her lips and the way that her body rocked against mine as I tasted her mouth. My hands dragged up and down the sides of her body, not able to focus on just touching one thing.
