Chapter Five

Zayn watched as Maria slept, her hair pooled around her, lips slightly ajar as she snored. She was so beautiful. His fingers slide across his canvas, wiping it clean of anything before quickly, thoughtlessly, began to draw the sleeping girl.

He had made countless drawings of her, each of her doing different things. But he couldn't help but to have a few of her just sleeping. His quick strokes left lines light as he sketched the shape of her curvy body under the sheets, the curls of her hair, outline of her face.

"You make me look so beautiful." His eyes darted to his now awake model as her eyes analyzed the sketch book. "You should really go by Martha's, she'll display your peices." Zayn shook his head, laying down onto the bed next to Maria.

"Guess what today is." Maria whispered, cuddling into Zayn's warm chest.

"13 days since I've met the most beautiful girl in the world." Zayn said as he kissed her hair, Maria laughed, closing her eyes and dozing. "Maria?" Her lack of response made him chuckle, but hold her even closer.

"Huh, wha?" She snapped her eyes open, her body jumped which slightly frightened Zayn but a smile formed on his lips as he began to laugh. "What? Did I fart?" That made Zayn laugh even harder. "Did you draw on my face?"

"No love, you're just the first person who sleeps as much I do- sleeps more than actually." He corrected himself. "And yes I drew on your face." He teased. Maria rubbed her face, looking at her fingers to see if anything would rub off. "I'm teasing love."

"Ha-ha." Maria mocked. "You better be glad that you're so charming, or else I'd -"

"You'd kiss me before going downstairs to get a shower so I can go get your surprise birthday breakfast." Zayn nonchalantly ordered her and she gasped, breaking herself out of his cuddling arms, she looked at the arm clock, 12:34 read back at her. "You didn't think I forgot did you?" He teased.

"No, I mean- maybe, wait you actually remembered?" Maria turned to Zayn with a look of awe. Zayn chuckled, sitting up and kissing her. Closing her eyes, Maria melted into the kiss.

"Well what else could today be?" Zayn asked and Maria still had her eyes closed. "Maria?"

"Oh, right." She opened her eyes with a blush. "Oh- it's the day that my Papi passed." Zayn frowned. That was ironic, the birth of one and the death of another celebrated in one day. "Crap. How did I forget both?"

"Because being a beautiful as you are is a hard job as it is." Zayn mummered and Maria giggled, kissing Zayn on the cheek. Standing, she stretched before heading for the strais. "Why don't you come shower with me, maybe instead of having a surprise birthday breakfast, we can f-"Her land line phone rung from bellow, quickly, she flew down the stairs and picked the phone up, bringing it calmly to her ear. "Mom."

That peaked up Zayn's interest. Silently he moved down the stairs, his eyes traced over the soft dimples of her back, he placed his thumbs on him before curving his hands around her hips. He listened as much as he could but her mothers voice was barely auditable without him pressing his ear against the phone. "-we're having some flight trouble but-"

"You shouldn't come." Maria said flatly, her mother went quiet for a moment, taken back. "I'm just really busy, especially with the Carnival coming up. Maybe next year." Maria said with intentions of that being it but her mother quickly discarded the idea.

"Oh honey stop being so silly, we'll be there later tomorrow." She laughed and Maria scoffed, hanging up the phone in frustration. Zayn pursed his lips together, his chin rested on her shoulder for a moment before kissing the soft skin of her back. Maria closed her eyes, moaning softly as Zayn kissed the tension out of her system.
