Chapter 12

Ariana's POV

School was over, THANK GOD! I couldn’t bare people asking me questions about lunch, and couldn’t stand Perrie’s evil stares.

I promised Zayn we would practice the song, and I plan to do that, but first, I wanted to take a shower. I still felt dirty after Perrie had thrown that spaghetti on me.

Just as I was about to leave, Liz, who was “doing her homework” (also known as reading and taking notes from Allure magazine), asked, “And where are you going?” I stopped  walking, my hand on the door knob.

“Going to Zayn’s room. We’re going to practice our song. Speaking of practicing, you should get together with Harry.”

“Ugh, work with Harry, no thanks. I can’t stand him, even though he’s hot.” Liz said, not looking from her magazine.

“Well, I’m leaving, BYE!” I called out. Liz waved her hand bye.

Zayn’s room was halfway across the building, so I had to run up some stairs (the elevator wasn’t working). I pulled out the paper that had his room number. Room 347, yup, I was there. I knocked on the door.

"Hello, who- oh my god, a girl!" It was Jay, that loud guy with the curly hair in my homeroom class.  He's Zayn's roommate?

"Hey, you're Ariana, the girl Zayn likes, I mean, come in." Jay opened all of the door, and let me in. I'm Ariana, the girl Zayn likes? Why am I not surprised? I can tell that he likes me. No time to think about that now. When I walked in, I saw Zayn sitting on his bed with his computer.

"Hey, Ari, ready to hear the song?" Zayn asked.

"Yup. Have you hear it yet?" I asked him. He shook his head.

"I've been waiting for you."

"Aww, so adorable!" We turned around, to see Jay listening to our conversation.

"Jay, would you mind leaving us alone?" I asked him.

"Sure. I'm gonna go to Nathan's room, and play some video games. HAVE FUN!" yelled Jay, and ran out the door.

"Alright, let's hear." I said. Zayn slid the CD in his computer. The song was so pretty. It made me feel like a princess. But my favorite part was the chorus.

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone, I'll be waiting all's there's left to do is run

You'll be the prince, and I'll be the princess, it's a love story, baby just say yes

Zayn could be the prince, and I could be the princess. Wait, what am I thinking? He's my friend, I think, and I'm only suppose to like him as a friend. Besides, he has a girlfriend. He may not like her, but still.

When the song was over, Zayn looked at me. He bit his lip.

"Ari, I need to know." He began.

"Need to know what?" I asked him.

"I need to know...do you love me or not?"

Zayn's POV

I actually asked her that? I wanted to know, didn't I? Yeah, but I wasn't really planning on asking her. Well, you can't undo what you say.

Ariana just looked at me, not answering. She looked at the ground. She didn't need to say anything. Silence means no.

"I don't care if you don't like me. I need to tell you that I love you, and I can't bare to be without you." What the hell, Zayn? You weren't SUPPOSE to tell her all that!

Ariana still didn't answer. She was still looking at the ground. But she was smiling. No, she was laughing.

"Ari, why are you laughing?" I asked her. She looked up at me.

"because, you think I don't like you. Truth is, I do." WHAT?

"Then why do you act like you don't?" I wondered.

"Because, you have a girlfriend. You may not like her, but you're still with her. It's bad enough Perrie hates me, but I don't want her to hate me cuz I might steal her boyfriend." She was kinda right. I was relieved. Ariana DOES like me.

"Well, that's good." I said, trying to get rid of the awkward inside me. She smiled at me. I smiled back. She leaned in closer to me. I did the same. We closed our eyes. We were about to kiss, when the door burst open.

"Hel-LO!" It was Jay. Me and Ariana pulled apart immediately.

"What the hell is going on here?" Jay asked. I looked at Ari. She looked back.

"Oh my god, look at the time! I have to go! BYE!" Ariana yelled, and grabbed her stuff.

"See you at dinner!" I yelled. Ari ran to the door, pushing Jay out of the way.

"OK, what was that?" asked Jay when Ari left.

"What else? I tried kissing her." I told him.

"Well, sorry I ruined your kiss with the red head, roomie." Jay apologized.

"It's all right. I have more opportunities to kiss her." I said. Jay smirked.

"AHH, I've rubbed off on you. But, let's be honest, that Ariana girl is better than Perrie. Well, I'mma go take a piss." Jay said, patting my back, walking to the bathroom.

He was right, I thought. So was Ari. As much as I loved her, I couldn't be with her. or can I?

And that, everyone, was chapter 12. So, will Zayn and Ariana get together?? But I think the real question is, is there something going on between Jay and Nathan?? They've been spending A LOT of time together. Haha, well, anyway, keep on reading, and all these questions and more will be answered.

xox, Lizzie
