Gotta Be You (One Direction Fan Fiction)

Lessons with Zayn

“Hey Cal, So I signed with the band! And I have not met with them yet but I am stoked. I cannot tell you the name of the band, but One Thing that you love about them is their sound. The meeting went very well, and I can’t wait to hear from you soon. Ttyl. Lizzy And you’re it!.” If Lizzy is doing well, then I am sure that I will be fine.

All of Callie’s lessons had gone really well, but she was nervous about the guy Zayn. All she knew about him was the fact that he had never swum before a day in his life. She wondered if he was afraid of water. Around 4 she heard some really loud guys come to her area of the pool where she had set up kickboards, flippers, and pulleys. As they walked nearer, she began to think that maybe one of these guys was her lesson. The guys approached her and each introduced themselves, and said that they were there as moral support for their friend Zayn. The boy’s names were Harry, Liam, Niall, Louis, and Zayn. They were all gorgeous. Harry had dark curly brown hair with pale green eyes that could take someone’s breath away. Liam also had wavy hair with subtle brown eyes. Niall had blonde hair that looked as though his hair had just been bleached, with vibrant blue eyes. Louis had straight brown hair with energetic brown eyes. And Zayn looked middle-eastern with dark features and really long eyelashes. All in all, Callie thought that the boys were ravishing. But she was a big fan of the boy’s music. They were her favorite non-country artist, One Direction. The boys soon made themselves bust by moving the lounge chairs by the pool so that the 4 boys could tan.

         “Hi guys, I am Callie. So Zayn, what made you decide to take swim lessons? Why have you not taken lessons before?”

“ Whoa, Guys she has an accent. Talk again.” Louis interjected.

“You will be hearing me talk for the next hour and forty-five.” Callie retorted

“ Well, Callie, the boys are forcing me to get into the water, because we want to do a music video in the water. And they want me to get over my fear of water. So they signed me up here.” Zayn said confidently. He looked over at the boys and gave them a wink. At the end of the lesson, Zayn was comfortable in the water. Mission Accomplished.

“Well thank you Callie for being patient with me today.” Zayn said happily

         “Your welcome. You were the easiest person I had a lesson with today.  Earlier today I had a class with 2 year olds and their mothers, and the mothers were harder to deal with than the toddlers.”

“ha, that’s good to know. So again thank you.” Zayn said laughing.  As the guys noticed that Callie and Zayn were done, they put the lounge chairs back where they were and put their shirts back on.

“Bye Callie with an accent. Nice to meet you.” Louis responded, as he was waving goodbye. Callie was in a way sad to see them go, but she knew that if she showed the boys that she was a big fan, then they would treat her differently. Wait a second, there were only four boys walking to the car. She turned around just as someone cleared his throat. She noticed that Harry was still there. “Hi, can I help you? Is there anything you need me to do? Do you want a lesson?”

“Oh no, But I think that Zayn needs another lesson. He does become quite skittish when it comes to water. And I am afraid that one lesson would not be enough. And it is also an excuse for Louis to see you. Sadly, he called dibs.”

“Oh, well, I will need to check with my manager to see my schedule. And I will have Sam call you within the next week.”

“ Or, I could just give you our numbers so that if one person does not pick up, then you may try the others.”

“ Um, I am not sure I like that, but just email me the numbers. Here I have a card.”

“ You have a card?”

“ I wanted to look professional. There is nothing wrong with trying to make a good impression.”

“Wow. So I will email you at CallieAustin@swimmingiscool.com ?”

“Yes that sounds great.” Just as Callie had confirmed the email, Niall came running up “Harry, Harry, Louis is chasing Kevin’s. I suggest you hurry up talking before Louis turns around and sees you talking Callie. Hey, Callie. Harry needs to go now. See you later.”

“Bye Niall and Harry.” Callie turned around, grabbed her stuff, and walked to the Women’s locker room. On her way out, Callie stopped by Sam’s office and asked him about her schedule and whether or not she could fit Zayn in.
