(1D) Your First Date

Zayn: A Park

A few weeks after meeting Zayn and getting to know him he asked you on a date. Obviously, you agreed. He never told you where he was taking you. “Don’t worry about it” he’d said earlier.

“You’ll love it I promise.” He came to your hotel and picked you up from the front. You hopped into his car and he drove you a shirt distance to a small, peaceful park. Since it was already nearly eight o’clock in the evening, there were no children running around. All you could hear was the birds humming their lullabies as the soft, warm breeze blew your hair to one side.

Zayn took you to a small opening between two cherry blossom trees and unfolded a blanket from a basket you hadn’t noticed he’d been carrying. He laid it out and gestured for you to sit next to him, which you did. He took out two freshly made chicken sandwiches, a bowl of fruit, and some a couple of bottles of water. Handing you a sandwich, fork, and water, he whispered, “I thought you might like it here. I come here a lot when I want some peace and quiet. And when I heard how nice the weather was going to be, I thought I’d have to take you. You smile up at him. “I love it here. I really appreciate you taking me, too. It’s been kinda stressful being on my own for this long in a new place, and it’s nice to have someone to talk to, who I know will listen.” “No problem. I thought you could use some fun” he says with a smile.

Niall: Beach

Ever since you “saved” Niall at Nandos, you two had been chatting, texting, and hanging out every once in a while. When you were supposed to leave with your friend Y/F/N, you called your parents to let them know you’d be staying a little while longer. Anything to stay close to Niall. After about a month of hanging out, Niall finally asked you out on a date. He told you to dress a little warm, as it gets chilly at night. He comes to pick you up, you hop in, and he begins driving.

An hour later, he finally stops in the parking lot of a beach. He gets out of the car, walks to your side, and opens the door for you. Niall leads you to where the water meets the shore and you two walk along the edge for quite some time while talking about what you want in your future. At one point he stops and takes off his jacket. He spreads it out on the sand carefully a bit farther inland from where you were walking. Niall lies down and gestures for you to lay beside him. “This was really fun, Y/N. Just walking for a bit and learning even more about you” he says, lying on his side, head propped up on hand. You turn you head and smile at him. “I did, too. I had a great time. Thanks, Niall.”

Louis: Movie

You’d known Louis for a while now. It had been a few months of frequently being with him, mostly at home or casually out at places like the mall or pizza parlor. The fans were constantly saying you’d be a great match for him, but you weren’t sure if it was worth it: falling in love and getting hurt, whether it was from him or “fans”. That’s why you were and weren’t surprised that he had asked you to on a date. Louis wanted to take you to a movie, and you happily agreed, wondering which one you’d see. He told you that he wanted to see The Last Exorcism Part II, causing you to hesitate. You absolutely hated horror movies, and you thought Louis wasn’t the biggest fan either, so it was a mystery to you why he had chose that particular film.

Louis picked you up that Friday night with a smug smile on his face. “You ready?” he asked, almost mocking the scared look on your face. “Yup” you replied hurriedly as you buckled your seat belt. You two arrived at the theater, bought some popcorn and candy, and headed into the theater. You lead him to the back corner, wanting to be away from the few people in the room during these horrific couple of hours. As the first eerie scene came, you were terrified. You must have shown it, too, by hiding behind your coat because Louis was looking straight at you when you peeked out from behind the fabric. “You okay?” he asked you. You could tell he was smirking even though you couldn’t see him. “No. I’m not. I’m scared” you whispered, not wanting to disturb the other people. “What was that? I’m sorry, I couldn’t hear you” Louis said, his voice smiling. “I’m scared” you said only a little louder. “Aww, Y/N, why didn’t you say so?” Louis cooed as he brought your head to his shoulder. Despite his mocking, you were thankful he had done that, as the worst part was projected on the screen right at that moment.

Liam: Zoo

Knowing your love for animals, Liam thought it would be nice to ask you on a date to the local zoo. You joyfully agreed, as you though it’d be a lot of fun. You couldn’t wait for your first date with Liam, and neither could the fans! They were all so excited for you and shipped Y/S/N, even when you two hadn’t even gone on a date yet. Nonetheless, you were still so excited for the date. You dressed warmly, as it was not very warm or sunny outside that day. Liam arrived right on time and you hopped into the front sear after dashing out your front door.

The drive was fairly quick so you parked and walked the short distance to the entrance. Once inside, you marveled over all of the beautiful creatures. After taking a map from a small stand, you made it your goal to visit every single exhibit. Liam laughed as you dragged him from place to place and taking pictures of everything you saw. He finally convinced you to sit down for a bit to eat lunch near the baboon exhibit. You wolfed down your meal and took exquisite photos of the baboons grazing while Liam watched you as he finished eating. At the end of the day after meeting your goal and seeing every animal, you looked at Liam and said, “I had an amazing time today. You’re so fun to be around.” Liam turned to you and smiled. “Me too. I think we should definitely come here again sometime.”

Harry: Italian Restaurant

A few months after you first met Harry and became good friends, he asked you out on a date to your favorite Italian restaurant. You said yes, of course, happy to accompany him to the fancy place. That Friday night you spent your homework time preparing for Harry to pick you up. At six o’clock he arrived wearing sunglasses and holding flowers. He handed a pair to you along with the bouquet. “Just for safety” he said. It’s true, some fans weren’t even supportive of your friendship with Harry, let alone would they like a romantic relationship.

At the restaurant, the waiter led you to a quiet room in the back. You’d only been there once for a party your family threw for you one year. Now you were safely able to remove your sunglasses without being noticed by any unsupportive fans. Harry ordered you your favorite dish. He knew it by heart due to the few hundred times you had brought up how delicious it was. As you waited for your meals, Harry talked to you about your relationship. “I really like you Y/N. It’s so nice to be around you and, no matter what anyone thinks, I think that we could make this work if we really want it, which I do.”
