One Direction Imagines

Zayn Imagine for Gigi (@Gigi24)

"Can we go down to the beach now?" Zayn whines at you while the two of you sit on the couch together.

You roll your eyes, agitated. "I'm in the middle of a really good book, so no."

"But I want to goooooo," he pleads while he pokes at your arm.

"Let me finish this part," you tell him.

"Why are you such a bookworm?"

"You know what? Fine. Go put on your swimming trunks," you say while setting your book down on the couch.

"Yay!" he says excitedly while standing up. "You finally gave in!"

"Well how was I supposed to concentrate with you talking my ear off?"

"Oh, please. You love hearing my accent."

"Yeah, yeah," you laugh while leaving to go put on your bikini and pull your brown beachy waves back into a bun.

When you walk back out, Zayn looks at you from where he's waiting at the door. "Looking good," he smiles and winks.

"Oh, hush," you blush. "I don't even like how I look in this bathing suit. Let's just go."

He grabs your sides and pulls you close to him, gazing into your eyes. "But you look beautiful."

Your cheeks turn even more red and you lean up, giving him a quick kiss on the lips. "Thank you. And for what it's worth, you look fit," you tell him as you take hold of his hand, looking at him shirtless.

He chuckles. "Thanks babe. Let's go."

You drive down to the beach together and set up your beach chairs. After about an hour of sitting and talking, you start to get hot.

"Zayn, let's go down to the water. I want to cool off," you say.

"I don't want to. It'll mess my hair up," he claims.

"C'mon, Zaynie. I'll help you overcome your fear."

He blushes slightly. "I'm not afraid of anything."

You ignore his comment. "We don't have to go too far in. Pleeeeaaaaase?"

"Fine," he gives in and stands up, walking down to the ocean with you.

"That's far enough," he jerks to a stop after you go in far enough for the water to be at your knees.

"Oh, please. Zayn, I won't let you drown, I promise."

"I don't think I'll drown, it's just that...it's high tide, and...you know I can't swim," he looks down.

You laugh and grin at him. "I can help you," you reply softly as your fingers slowly intertwine themselves with his.

Zayn looks up at you and smiles. "I love you Gigi."

"I love you too," you beam at him. He's told you he loves you a million times, but you still always get butterflies in your stomach.

The rest of the afternoon, you spend time showing Zayn how to jump through waves. At one point, a really huge wave comes and he starts to run away but you pull him forward, going through it head first. When he comes up gasping for air, you just laugh and plant your lips firmly on his, reviving him. He probably didn't need mouth-to-mouth, but hey, it didn't hurt anyone to do it anyway.

A few hours later, the two of you decide to dry off and drive back to the flat the two of you share. When you get there, you sit on the couch, pull your knees up to your chest and wrap your arms around your legs, curling yourself into a ball. You shake, frozen from the cold water.

"You must be freezing," Zayn says, walking over to you with a blanket in hand. He sits down beside you and you lean your body against his as he drapes the blanket over you.

"Thanks," you smile as you close your eyes.

"No problem. Goodnight babe."

"Night Zayn."

"Oh, and Gigi?"

"Yes?" you reply.

"Do you think we could go in the water again tomorrow?"

You smile. "Of course, love."

Hope you like it Gigi! You're the first person to request a certain plot/setting (to help Zayn go into the water) so I hope it's alright!
