I didn't want to open my eyes.

I knew that today I was going to be with my mother helping her with last minute stuff before the rehearsal dinner. I didn't want her to ask me any questions about Zayn and I.

Zayn was still sleeping soundly next to me. After the embarrassing rejection, I was too scared to face him.

I knew I had to get up to start the day.

I got out of bed and stretched a little. In three days, this will all be over.

I grabbed somethings for me to shower and hopped in. The warm water woke me up. After I finished showering, I changed and then opened the door that led to my room.

Zayn wasn't there.

I headed downstairs and heard voices. I went into the kitchen and saw Zayn talking to my mother.

"(Y/n), you didn't tell me that Zayn could cook." My mom said with a smile.

I looked at the pancakes that he made. They looked delicious.

"It's one of his many hidden talents." I smiled.

Zayn winked at me and continued cooking. I sat down at the counter as my mom started setting the table.

She left the room once she was done and I turned to Zayn, "Is this part of the extra fees that you were talking about?"

He laughed at my joke, "No, I woke up early this morning and your mother was here about to cook."

"That was very kind of you. Did you need help with anything?" I asked him.

"Uh, could you get the fruit out of the fridge?"

I nodded, "Sure."

I got up and grabbed the strawberries and the whipped cream. I always liked to put a little on my pancakes.

I placed the strawberries on the table and the whipped cream. I turned around to get the orange juice, and bumped into Zayn. He reached one hand out to steady me. I felt heat from his touch.

"Sorry." I mumbled.

"It's okay." He smiled a little before placing the pancakes on the table.

"I'm going to go get everyone." I said before I could say or do anything embarrasing.

My parents were in the living room along with Olivia.

"Guys, breakfast is ready." I told them before I headed upstairs and told Bonnie, Alex, and Mark that breakfast was finished.

I couldn't find Easton. I headed back downstairs after checking the bathrooms for him. I saw him in the backyard. He was on his phone texting someone.

I opened the door and called out to him, "Hey! Come get breakfast!"

"I'm coming!" He told me.

I closed the door and headed back to the kitchen. Zayn and everyone else was already seated besides Easton. I wondered what he was doing.

I sat between Zayn and Olivia. She had whipped cream already all over her face. I laughed and took a picture before I wiped the mess off of her face.

"What are the plans for the day?" Zayn asked everyone. I was a little surprised at first at how everyone was so open to him. They, like I did, enjoyed to be in his company. It was just his charm.

Zayn could easily charm anyone.

"Well, the girls and I are going to my last fitting in a little while." My mom smiled. I was really excited to see my mother's dress. She didn't want to send any photos; she wanted it to be a surprise.
