ZARAS POV
"SHIT SHIT" I yelled jumping out of bed I ran over to my desk and grabbed a hair tie to put my hair up how the fuck did I over sleep it's already 8:50 am and my lecture starts at 9
I paced my room quickly trying to pick an outfit that looked semi decent for my first lecture I sprinted to my bathroom brushing my teeth vigorously and moving onto scrubbing the dear life out of my face I stopped abruptly breathing heavily contemplating how I wasn't gonna make it for 9 so what was the point rushing
I sighed deeply calming down now moisturising my face and putting my clothes on I done some light makeup and let my hair down by brushing it and juzzjing it up at the roots for volume as I didn't exactly have time to curl it
Thank god I got my books last night otherwise I would've been so disorganised I grabbed my bag and locked my door with my interactive key I walked down my uni block to the main entrance and looked for the lecture room

I decided to go in through the back door so no one wouldn't notice me as easily I opened the door lightly which showed the large theatre room with chairs in a opera layout with desks attached to the seats with students sitting intently listening to the teacher writing away at their notebooks

"So when you are asked in the exam for the intercostal muscles for the diaphragm fo not forget to mention how they contract and relax-" the teacher spoke into her microphone
I tiptoed into the lecture only sweating a little and scanned the room to find an empty seat there was one right at the front at the end of the row
Fuck sake I murmured under my breath just my luck
That's when I got stopped
"Aahhhh Zara I see you decided to come not exactly the best first impression is it on your first day" the teacher said shooting me a look making everyone turn around
I stood their a nervous wreck wanting the ground to basically swallow me up
I gulped loudly and started walking down the stairs that led down to the last row at the from near the stage I shot her a fake smile "it won't happen again" I said sitting down practically face palming myself over and over again....

( 6 hours after the lecture finished)
I walked out of my apartment when I got a text from zion to meet him at his room
I had been a few days since our kiss and to be fair I didn't really know how to feel about it I mean does he like me, do I like him it's confusing
I walked out after getting dressed into something a bit more comfy I threw on some nike gym leggings and a starboy The Weeknd March hoodie that was oversized on me I slipped on my stefan janoskie white slip ons and made my way out the door
I approached his block ringing the bell that would sound his room
"Hey it's me" I said smiling to myself
"Yeah come through" he said his deep voice through the muffled microphone
The automatic doors opened as I walked through I passed a group of guys who stared at me probably because I was the only girl walking through an all guys apartment block
They talked to themselves as I noticed one of them turn back and look at me o roles my eyes approaching zions door knocking it a little too impatiently
He opened it up noticing my annoyed face
"Hey...you okay" he said
"Yeah yeah just walking through here did make me a little uncomfortable" I said moving a piece of hair behind my ear
"Why did someone say something" he asked politely liking concerned
"No no just a few guys staring at me" I said shaking my head
"I'm sorry" he said lowly
"No no why are you apologising idiot it's fine anyway let's drop it and tell me how have you been" I said smiling at Zion making my way to sit on his bed

"Good good I mean I heard what happened with you walking in late and all" he laughed
"Shut uppp" I said shaking my head
"Seriously a girl walks in late once and everyone on the course knows" I said laughing lightly even though I don't want to
"Yeah well first impressions count Zara I bet that teacher will be harsh on you" Zion said looking seriously at me

"Yeah well I don't give a fuck I'm smart I know I'll pass that class" I said confidently as he looked at me taken back a little
*ring ring*
I looked down at my phone to see it was mum who was calling me it kept ringing as I smacked my forehead with my hand
"What is it" Zion slugged looking up from his phone
"My mum" I said sighing
It stopped ringing
"Why didn't you answer I swear you said y'all were hella close" Zion said putting his phone away
"Yeahhh I know but then she's gonna be like where are you who are you with and Zion I can't lie you know she'll freak out if I say oh yeah mum just in some guys room" I said my hands falling onto my things in exasperation

"Dudeeee chilll im pretty sure she'll be fine okay" he said reassuringly
I picked up my phone and called back

(20 mins after talking to mum)

"Sorry" I said laughing putting my phone away as I noticed how long I was on the phone for
"No it's all good I'm actually super close with my mum too she's literally my rock" he said warmingly smiling to himself

Why did this make me feel some type of way finally a guy who actually didn't hate his mum
I laid down in his bed tucking myself into his covers that smelt of him a smell that I didn't mind infact I didn't mind at all
He came over and laid down as we both sat up against his headboard talking and talking till we both yawned

I felt my eyes go droopy as I tried to force them awake slowly Zion had extended his arms so that my head laid on it maybe it was that I felt comfortable or maybe that I was with Zion that my eyes shut into a deep sleep whilst he talked deeply about whatever......

ZIONS POV :

"Zara" I asked softly as I moved my head downwards to see her fast asleep in my arms
My heart became warm that same feeling I got when we both kissed but this time not at sporadic as before she lay peacefully against my yellow hoodie I laid her down a little more so that she was tucked in to my bed I took my phone out and snapped a pic of her in my arms before I moved near to her and fell asleep
