AN- This isn't a book (so dont kill me because I know I've been telling you guys I'm on a hiatus) but this is for cathartics' one-shot contest in which I decided to join. LOLOLOL I PRAY THIS IS GOOD ENOUGH.
But anyway to sum this scene up, Rose and Zayn are inside a pharmacy in the middle of the night to buy... well, er, um, *cough* condoms *cough* because they decided that since they've been on a relationship for 5 months already, why not take it to the next level, yeah?
But of course I still made this scene have that same awkward, sweet, cheesy, and funny conversations they always make.
So I hope you guys (especially jae or cathartics) enjoy it! xx

I push my shaking fists inside the pockets of my hoodie and bite my lip, trying to avoid eye contact with Zayn. Which he instantly notices because he has been my boyfriend for 5 months now and obviously has been studying my every move. I guess.
"Rose, I know you're nervous." Zayn whispers from behind me, his palm resting on my shoulder.
(Of course not, Zayn. Why would I be when your breath is on my neck and we're just buying condoms in the middle of the night? No shit sherlock, of course I'm hella nervous.)
"We don't have to do this, you know. Like, if you're not ready, I'll understand." I shake my head, my fists becoming tighter. I feel Zayn slip his arms on my waist, turning me around to face him. And once again, those coffee irises that make me go weak on the knees cast me into a spell.
(A spell where you just gotta listen to what Zayn says really)
"Rose," he says my name, forehead touching mine, and it just makes my heart melt because I could just listen to him saying my name, over and over again without getting tired.
It sounds cheesy, I know, but, it just rolls out of his mouth like he'd practice saying my name. He practically says my name like it's a song. That kind of song where his voice fits so perfectly with.
"We can just run out of this store and forget this ever happened, yeah?" Zayn whispers, eyes closed and grinning. He's teasing me, but I can sense a bit of seriousness in his tone.
I can't help but laugh a little, it was a tad shaky but, I managed to get the words out anyway. I shake my head, "I'm not backing up now, Zayn."
He opens his eyes. Making me wonder how on earth can eyes be as beautiful as his. "Are you sure? Because there's really no rush, I can wait." He says, sincerely. "I can wait an eternity just to have you in the end."
I spank his chest playfully, pushing him away. "You're real cheesy, Malik. You meant to do that." I roll my eyes.
He grins and shrugs, "Just trying to make you feel calm, Rose. I don't want you to feel pressured or anything."
I sigh, and place a hand on my chest. My heart beat still feels like it's the speakers of a concert. "I can't believe, you're not the slightest nervous right now."
And then it hits me, I don't even know if Zayn is a virgin or not. I study him for a moment, his lanky (yet dangerously sexy) posture, toned arms, skin full of tattooes, a gray beanie that makes him look rugged, not to mention a hint of stuble, a killer smile and an amazing kisser. I'm guessing he's not.
