Love at Fifth Sight

Chapter 16

Nela ran to the passengers side to talk, but the door was locked, "Dinah open up," he started to say but then he looked up and saw Zayn,"What is he doing here?!"

"He's being a friend, and more of a man than you'll ever be. Now leave!" Dinah screamed as she slammed her door shut.

"Dinah can we please talk about this?" No neckela pleaded.

But before she could answer, "I think you better leave," Zayn insisted.

"Who asked you? You British prick," he insulted.

"Nobody! But I'm sure she doesn't wanna talk to someone who fucked up this bad," Zayn screamed in his direction.

"Why you!" Nela said as he reached for Zayns neck, but the window rolled up and Dinah started to drive.

"DINAH!!!" the cheater screamed as she drove further a way.

Dinah continued to drive and she started bawling.

"Dinah..." Zayn said trying to get her attention.

She didn't answer.

"Dinah..." he said again while he placed his hands on the steering wheel atop of hers.

She looked up into his eyes.

"Your in no condition to drive, pull over at that park and we'll switch," he offered.

"I'm fine," she lied.

"No you're not. Pull over."

She reluctantly pulled over and got out, but she didn't go over to the passenger side. She went to a nearby bench and put her head in her hands and cried. Zayn got out of the car and sat next to her. Then he put his arm around her and pulled her close. She buried her head in the crevice of his neck.

He sighed at the sight of this, it made his heart break seeing her so sad, "Dinah do you know why I was mad that day you came and talked about Nela?"

She sniffled, "Why?"

"Because I know once a cheater always a cheater, and I knew you were gonna get hurt again, and I didn't want to see you get hurt," he answered truthfully, "Plus there's the matter of the question I was gonna ask you."

"What was the question?" Dinah asked with a curious glare. He sighed heavily, "I wanted to ask you if you'd go out with me?"

She looked perplexed, "Really?"

"Really. I had wanted to ask you out for a really long time. Do you remember that night when I called you after the tour?" he asked. She chuckled a bit, "How could I forget? You called me at such an ungodly hour."

He laughed in return, "I'll give you that, but I really did forget about the time change!"

Dinah laughed again as she wiped away more tears. More tears escaped her eyes and this time he wiped them away, "That night I was gonna ask you out over the phone, but I chickened out. I decided to come here and ask you out in person, but that day I arrived and you said you got back together with Tom Thumb back there. I was really upset."

She hung her head low to avoid eye contact, but Zayn lifted her head back up to look at his sincerity when he said, "Dinah you're beautiful, you're funny, you're intelligent, you're caring, your unique, and you're just absolutely perfect. I just wanted you to be mine," he said as he looked down into her eyes.

She sat up without ever breaking eye contact, and quickly hugged Zayn and he hugged back.

"Dinah your amazing, and he didn't deserve you anyway," he whispered into her ear.

"Thank you Zayn..." she whispered back. He smiled, "No problem."

They sat there hugging each other but then Zayn started singing into her ear (go to the media section),"What do you say Dinah? Will you go out with me. I promise I will be loyal to you. I'll be better than he was."

Dinah separated herself from Zayn, "Zayn... I'd love to," she said hesitantly. That caused him to release a huge sigh, "But?"

"But I need some time to think," she explained.

"I understand. But I don't have time. I'm leaving tomorrow, and you know that," he pointed out.

"I know, I know, but I still need to think. As you can see my relationships aren't the best. I just need time. Please," she said with sorrow in her voice and eyes.

"I understand," he started, "We should get going," he said sadly as he got up and walked to the car.

Dinah followed Zayn to the car and got in. He started to drive, "I'm sorry I can't give you an answer right now," she stated as she noted his somber disposition.
