DAMAGED (the love begins)

Chapter 16- Turning into Him?

This morning it was everywhere in news that me and Zayn are together or had a night stand or every single rumor you can possibly come up with but for some reason it didn't upset me.

Zayn had called my university, telling them that I'll be leaving one day early. He has all my stuff packed and ready. I don't even know why're we going to Bradford. Doesn't his family live there?

I need to ask him but he's on the phone. He needs to realize that it's just me, him and mark in the car and if he's on the phone I have no one to talk too. Well I can talk to mark.

"So mark, are you married?"

I ask trying to start a conversation.

"Yes ma'am" he replies simply ending the conversation. Zayn on the other hand is still on the phone talking to who knows who but now is giving me a 'are you kidding me with that question' look.

'I'm bored' I mouth to him.

"Okay I'll call you back" with that he hangs up.

"Why are we going to Bradford?" I ask

"Because I want to"

"Why am I going?" I ask again. Annoyed.

"Because I want you too"

"Ugh Zayn why are you so difficult? and what will we tell your family?"

"That you're my friend?" He replies confused.

******

I wake up after god knows how long and guess what. I'm in the car alone. Shit. Im freaking out. Suddenly Zayn knocks on the window and waves at me, telling me that he's here. After 5 minutes he comes back inside. Oh god. He smells so good. Wait was he smoking?

"We'll be there in 10 minutes" he says. Oh okay

After 10 minutes we pull up in in front of this huge mansion and on the gates it says 'Y.J.M'. just like it's says on Zayn's gate. When we enter the gates, mark parks the car and immediately gets out leaving me with Zayn alone.

He gets hold of my hand "Laila don't worry okay? I want you to forget everything that happened yeah? you're here for vacation. I have 3 sisters and you can be with them. They're fun I guess. Don't worry please?"

While he's talking I can't help but notice he's not talking to my formally like he always does. He's actually talking normal! for once.

In return I just nod my head.

And we get out of the car. Right then this middle aged lady runs towards Zayn and hugs him. Maybe she's his mom?

"Hey mummy" Zayn laughs. And then three girls come and hug him. Which I assume are his sisters. After they're done with there family reunion, his mom turns to me.

"Oh hello there sunshine. You must be Laila right? Zayn told me you'd be coming" she smiles and pulls me in for a hug which I accept gladly.

"These are my daughters. Doniya, waliyha and safaa" I hug each one of them.

"Let's go inside. Dinner is ready" Trisha I think that's her name? says

As we head inside, the dinner was actually ready. Like everything was on the table ready to be eaten.

As we sit, I sit beside Zayn who is beside his mom, who is beside an empty chair which in guessing is Zayn's dad because it's the head chair. Beside the empty chair waliyha is sitting and beside her is doniya and finally between me and doniya, safaa is sitting.

"Sorry sorry guys. I'm late. I'm really sorry. I got stuck in a meeting". A Middle aged man rushed in the kitchen and Zayn immediately got up to hug him. "Hey dad, you okay?" he mumbles. I also get up and shake my hand with him. It's like they already know me? Wow did Zayn actually talk about me?

"So how are you Laila?" Zayn's dad asks as he starts to eat.

"Very well sir" I say. Wait. I. Just. Sounded. Like. Zayn.

What the actual F. U. C. K.

"Are you guys dating?" safaa asks our of now where which leads me to start coughing and Zayn to choke on his water.

"No" we both say it together

"Of course they are saff. Why wake would Zayn bring her here" Waliyha adds

"No" we say it again. Together. It's like we're thinking the same thing. But how? I mean he's so different. I can't help but notice that I'm starting fun talk like him too, which is really annoying. Or maybe I'm over thinking too much. Oh god bless me. Have mercy on me.

"Sorry guys I'm late too-" he stops mid sentence as soon as he makes eye contact with me. Matt??

What's he doing here?
