How you fell in love with Zayn Malik <3
(As usual Y/n means your name & P.O.V. means Point of View)
It was a chilly afternoon. You and the lads were relaxing in the lounge. You knew them for quite sometime and their house was like your second home. They were the brothers you never had, well all except Zayn because he was the boyfriend you always wanted. He didn't know though and he honestly didn't need to because you weren't planning on telling anyone. Zayn wasn't home yet, he'd gone out earlier. You were chatting with the rest of the boys as the fire in front of you sizzled and cracked. You heard the door open as you took a sip of your Hot Chocolate. Zayn came into the lounge, he practically ran. He had a huge grin on his face. "I've found her, she's the one!" He beamed. The boys and you shared confused looks. "Sorry Zayn, we don't all speak in riddles." Louis laughed. But now you knew exactly what he meant and it broke your heart. "So, what's her name then?" you asked, sucking it up and putting on a fake smile. You patted the seat next to you for him to sit. "Rebecca." he said, taking a seat and grabbing your hot chocolate, slurping down half the glass. "Oi! That was mine!" You say grabbing it back. "I know, but it was cold out there. Anyway, she's really nice. I accidentally bumped into her, we ended up chatting and having a coffee and somehow I got her to go on a date with me...Tomorrow!!" He adds grinning like a mad fool. "Wow Zayn! I never knew you got so talkative! Quite the 'Lady's Man' aren't ya?" Niall giggled also noticing Zayn's excitement like the rest of us. "Well, that's great then." You say taking a sip and pretending that this didn't mean much. "Yea, its just that I don't know what to do for our date." He says. "Just take her out for a romantic dinner and a movie, mate." Liam says. "I cant. This has to be spectacular, she's important to me. That's why I need your help y/n!" He says, hopefully. You look up at him. "ugh! why do you do this to me Malik?!" You think to yourself before answering. "Yea, sure! I don't see why not. You'd be lost without me, Zayn!" You say, smiling. He gives you a big hug, he even smells good. So, you all sit discussing plans for Zayn's date. Playful arguments here and there. Mostly with you and Louis. Harry had a bizarre idea to fly her to Paris, teasing Zayn about how he's taking this too seriously. So you suggested that they make Liam's idea of a dinner and a movie a little more interesting by taking her to a park at night, having dinner under a gazebo, lit up with fairy lights and then watching a movie on a projector, 'picnic-style' on blankets. Everyone loved the idea including Zayn who looked like he was about to burst with joy. "It sounds perfect!" He said grinning. "God y/n! Since when are you such a romantic?" Liam chuckled. "Well, at least I know what to do for our date then, y/n!" Harry winked. "Psssh! Get over yourself Styles!" You laughed. Everyone else did too, except Zayn who seemed a little unsettled. "Well, I'm gonna hit the hay!" Niall yawned. "Same." you all said, yawning in unison. Louis laughed. "Niall, your yawning is contagious!" He said as we all walked up stairs. You stood in the hallway and waited for each of them to say Goodnight and give you a hug. Zayn was last. "Goodnight y/n!" He said hugging you, and then kissing you on the cheek. "Goodnight Zayn." You whispered into his ear. He smiled, and you watched as he walked away into his room and quietly shut his door. You went to bed as well and had an unenjoyable restless slumber.
*Skipping to 30min before Date*
"Y/n!" Zayn shouts, running into the kitchen. "Y/n? Hey! So everything is prepared, right? The Food? The Movie? The lights? The flowers? Oh God! I forgot the flowers!" Zayn exclaims, face-palming himself. "Chill Zayn everything is sorted! And I got red roses by the way." You smile, smoothing out any creases on his clothing. "Really? Ah, thanks y/n! Your a saint!" He says, hugging you. "Its a pleasure." you say softly. The hug lasts a while. "Grenade man! Grenade!" You hear Louis shouting to Liam, who are playing PS4 in the lounge. You and Zayn pull apart and Niall walks into the kitchen. "Ey, Zayn. Isn't your date at 18:00?" He asks, opening the fridge. "Yea, why?" Zayn responds. "Coz its 17:50!" He says, taking some food. "What?! Oh gosh!" He says. "You better hurry!" you say. "Bye y/n!" He says, kissing you on the cheek hurriedly and runs out the door. "Bye Zayn!" You holler from the lounge, as the door shuts. You are so ready to burst into tears, this is killing you. "You really like him, don't you?" You hear Harry's voice behind you, which snaps you out of your thoughts. "What?" you say confused, turning to face him. "Zayn. You like him a lot?" he questions. You look to the ground. "I don't know what you're talking about." you say quietly. "Its as plain as day y/n. Anyone could see it." Liam says, putting the game on pause and walking towards you with Louis following. You look up, and a tear streams down your face. "Hey, its alright, love." Louis says, wiping your tears. "You cant let him get away y/n. You need to do something." Adds Niall. "Niall's right! We should go now y/n!" Harry shouts. "Wait. What?" you say confused as they start to grab their coats. "Guys we cant do this!" you say. "Your right y/n!" Louis says. "Your still in your sweats. Go put something nice on!" He says gesturing upstairs. "No, I mean we cant! This is wrong." You whisper. "Rubbish!" You hear Liam. "Y/n! You like him don't you?" he says, taking you by the shoulders. "Well you'll never have him if you don't try!" You give him a weak smile, well if Liam thinks this is good, then why not try? You ran upstairs. "That a girl!" You hear Niall shout. You come down later, wearing a black dress and heals with your hair up. "So, what'd you think?" you ask nervously. They stay quiet. "Gosh! is that bad?!" you ask. "No! No! You look Gorgeous!" Harry manages to chock out. "Um...Uh...Oh yea, right. To the park." Liam says, still stunned. "Yea." Louis and Niall follow. You giggle at their cuteness.
*Skipping car ride*
Once you get there, the five of you are hiding in a bush a few meters away from Zayn and Rebecca, who are now watching the movie. "Guys, I cant do this!" you whisper shout. "Yes, you can y/n just try!" Louis says pushing you forwards. You trip over a branch and fall straight onto the projector which stops the movie. Zayn and Rebecca immediately turn around to find you on the floor which is wet grass. Ugh! Great! You think to yourself getting up and brushing dirt off of you with your hands. You look up to see Zayn and his date awkwardly staring at you. "Y/n?!" Zayn says confused. "Oh uh Hi Zayn!" You say awkwardly. "What are you doing here?" he asks. "Who is she?" asks Rebecca, raising an eyebrow. "I'm-" "She's just a friend." Zayn cuts you off. Well that hurt. "Oh, what's she doing her then?" she asks. "I don't know. What. Are. You. Doing. Here. Y/n?!" Zayn asks you, between gritted teeth. "I-uh-I came for...uh." You stutter. "Well, whatever you came for you should leave." says Zayn, his eyes gesturing to a nervous Rebecca. "But Zayn I came to-" You try to say, but then its starts to rain really hard."Aaaah!!" Rebecca squeals. "My Hair!!" she shouts running to Zayn's car. "Oh this is just great! Thanks a lot Y/n! Rebecca! I'm coming babe!" He shouts running after her. Thank goodness it was raining, other wise he'd have seen your tears, you were utterly crushed. "Oh God! Y/n we're so sorry!" you hear Liam from the bush. They come running to you. "Y/n its gonna be okay!" Louis consoles you in a hug and you break down it tears. You're all soaking wet so they take you to the car and drive you back to their house. You get a change of clothes once your home and warm yourselves up. You've been silent since what happened. "Y/n? Please say something!" Niall begs, you're all in the lounge with blankets. The door opens. "I'll tell you what she should say." Zayn shouts as the door shuts. You sit up. "She should give me a big apology!" He shouts, glaring at you. "Zayn-" You stand up. "What Y/n?? Huh? Why did you come? You messed everything up!" The rest of the boys stood up too. "You cant blame me for the rain!!" You shout back. "No! I cant! But as usual as soon as you came everything went wrong!!" He screamed. "What the heck is that supposed to mean?" You say lowering your voice. "You know exactly what I mean Y/n! You ruin everything!" he says. You bite your lip hard and look at the ground, tears start to flow again. "Whoa! Zayn, calm down." Liam says. "No Liam! Rebecca was important to me." He says. "And you are important to her." Harry says pointing at you. "What?" Zayn says. You look up. "Take one good look at her Zayn. She's all you need." Louis adds. "I-I don't understand." Zayn stutters. "She came to tell you that Zayn." Says Niall. "I came to tell you that I love you. But I'm not so sure anymore." You say running upstairs. Zayn runs after you. "Y/n!" He shouts. "I didn't know..." he says grabbing your wrist. "What do you know?!" You shout pulling out of his grip. "I know that I love you too!" He whispers. You turn back to face him, "What?" You say in the same tone as him. "I love you." he says walking towards you. "I always did. I just never knew how to tell you, I never thought you'd like me back." "But Zayn I-" he cut you off, "I'm sorry for all the horrid things I said I didn't mean it, I know I don't deserve you." "Zayn I just..." you try to say. "Just say you'll be mine?!" He asks but before you answer his lips crash against yours. Surprised, you kiss back. He pulls away. "I take that as a yes then?" He grins and you nod. "Aaaaaw! This is such a loving moment!" Louis says. You and Zayn turn to see the lads smiling at the bottom of the stairs. "Get a room!!" Harry shouts as Louis throws a pillow at you, you all laugh. The End.
