Faith (Islamic Fic)

Chapter 5

~Zayn’s P.O.V~

Hearing an annoying sound buzzing next to my ear made me huff in my pillow then push my body up with my elbows to try and look for that stupid phone.

I heard its noise and I felt its buzzing but I can’t find it under these damn pillows. Why do I have so many pillows anyways?

“Hello?” My voice was barely audible. I hate bed voice.

“Eh, man, you still sleeping? We need to be at Danny’s in thirty minutes.” I heard Louis say.

Groaning, I sighed, “Just let me take a quick shower and I’ll be ready.”

“Okay man, I’ll come pick you up in twenty.” He hung up.

Groaning loudly, I pushed my body from the warmth of my bed sheets and dragged myself to the shower. Five minutes later, I was in my open closet getting ready for the day.

Yeah, it was 11PM already but Danny was only going to be in town for the day so we had to go out and party. I haven’t seen him or any of my old friends in more than three months. This has to be freaking good if I was sacrificing my sleep.

Hearing the door-bell ring, I took my time perfecting my quiff ignoring the door. When I was satisfied with the result, I heard another ring on the door, so I groaned walking down stairs.

Another ring was heard, “Jeez, Louis, I’m coming man. Have patience.” I yelled making my way to the door.

Yanking the door open, I was about to yell at Louis when I realized that it wasn’t Louis. It was that guy from the market earlier today. He seemed startled by my impatience and yelling.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to ring so many times but I wasn’t sure if you were awake or not.” The boy said as his cheeks were slightly red in embarrassment.

“It’s, okay. What are you doing here anyways?” I asked in the least rude way I could manage. Seriously, didn’t this kid have a life or friends of his own to hang out with?

“You said you were taking me to have a tattoo?” He said more in a questioning way.

Oh, Right. I forgot about that. How was I supposed to tell him that I was busy without disappointing him again?

“It’s okay if you forgot, I mean, I’m sure you've got better things to do.” Great, he was already disappointed. I hate this.

Before I could say anything, Louis’s car parked in my drive way and he jumped off, doing a little run to the door.

“Sorry, I need to use your bathroom man.” He skipped passing us and did a little run/dance to my guest's bathroom near the living area. It was quite funny seeing him like that.

“Look, erm,” I paused trying to remember his name. What was it? Jamie? Jaden? Jay?

“Jo,” He said quickly. Right, Jo.

 “Okay, Jo, this is quite embarrassing to say but-“

“What’s embarrassing?” I was interrupted by Louis. How did he pee so fast?

“Well, I forgot about Danny’s today and promised Jo that I’d take him to get a tattoo.” I admitted feeling bad about it which was weird considering I only met this kid just a few days ago.

“You want to get a tattoo? Cool, mate. What did you have in mind?” Louis asked, generally interested in the subject for some reason.

“I don’t know yet. It’s kind of my first one so I just wanted something cool.” Jo shrugged but he was nervous, I could tell by the way he was chewing on his bottom lip. I had the same habit.
