The Nerd | Completed

Chapter Ten

After I had been awake for awhile we decided to watch a movie. I let him pick but I was surprised with what he picked.

"You like The Notebook? Wow I didn't know you liked that movie." I was appalled that he was interested in that kind of movie.

"No, I haven't even seen it but I've heard that apparently you guys are supposed to be obsessed with this type of movie." He smirked, he was obviously pleased with himself.

I rolled my eyes, "Seriously?!" I threw the pillow I was holding in my lap.

I laughed at his face when the pillow that I had hurled at him, hit him straight between his beautiful eyes.

His mouth was shaped into the form of an 'o' which obviously made me laugh harder. I looked up from the ground I had been staring at while I died of laughter.

I looked at his features while he was laughing, he had big brown eyes and just a little bit out a shine to them. I looked at his perfectly styled hair with his dark brown color matching his eyes. When he laughed his lips were in the perfect shape. I was staring at them when his laughter slowly came to an end.

I quickly looked away hoping he wouldn't notice my cheeks turning a deep crimson color.

He came over and sat down next to me after he finished putting the movie into the player.

"So you guys have popcorn?" He questioned me before he turned the movie on.

"Hmm, I think so. Come on, we can go check." I said while standing up.

He got up and followed me to the kitchen. I looked through the cabinets until I found what I was looking for, I had found the stash of popcorn packets that my mom had hidden from me.

I pulled it out and put it in the microwave before starting it. I turned around to see Zayn looking at me and smiling like a complete idiot.

"Why don't you take a picture, it'll last longer." I chuckled.

He grinned, "Sure, how do you want me to pose?" With that he makes these ridiculous poses make me laugh.

"You're so pretty when you laugh." He says thoughtfully.

I blush and turn back towards the microwave, "Thank you," it comes out no louder than a whisper which is why I'm surprised when he answers.

"How come you and Britney don't get along?" He inquires.

"She's popular and I'm not, nothing to it really." I lie.

It seems as if he could tell I was lying.

"You're lying Sam, I can tell. Now please tell me why," he practically begs.

"We used to be friends okay? Then when something happened she dropped off at the curb and became Ms. Popular." I regret telling him but he wouldn't have stopped bugging me about it until I told him.

I grabbed the popcorn and dumped it into a bowl before returning back to my room, with him hot on my heels.

I flopped down and pressed play before Zayn could even sit down.

I are a few pieces of popcorn and we watched the movie in silence.

Zayn's POV

I looked at her from the side as she watched the movie. She was so pretty, God what has happened to me?

A week ago I didn't even know who she was other than the school nerd. But then one day she barely ate anything and I had to find out why.

But she was more reserved than I had thought. She wasn't like the other girls who would kill to have one night me. She didn't really act like she even cared.

I could tell she had been broken, lied to, and used. I couldn't let that happen to her anymore. I was thrilled when she agreed to ditching school with me today.

I never expected her to actually say yes, in fact you could say I was surprised. She had just wanted to get rid of me in the beginning. But now she has seemed to get used to me.

I was admiring her long blonde hair and the way she had let it hang down her back freely. She looked prettier than words could say.

The movie credits had appeared on the screen which means that the movie was over, I didn't even really pay attention though.

I turned the TV off before looking at my phone, it was three- thirty. I should probably leave now but I didn't want to move.

I got up and grabbed the few things I had brought into the house and told Sam goodbye.

I already missed her...
