3 years later...

"Sadielane Thompson."

I could feel my heart beating wildly in my chest as I walk to the stage. Today was the day I have been waiting for in a long, long time. I could hear a big whoop in the crowd from Eliz, and I smiled widely at her enthusiam. Despite that my family was not here, I imagine their smiling faces in the crowd somewhere as well as Zayn's and the boys'.

To my surprise, the graduation finished quickly. I went to Isa first as well as my other friends who were graduating with me. We congratulated one other and bade our goodbyes for now since we had a party planned later that day. I pulled out my phone to call my mum whilst I headed to Eliz.

"Congratulations baby!" Mum literally yelled on the phone.

"I need an ear doctor after that Mum," I answered with a chuckle. When she didn't respond, I was shocked. I looked at the phone to see that the call has ended, either she hung up on me or the line just went dead. "What the?" I said to myself. 

"I couldn't help myself baby." I could hear my mum, but this time, it was not on the phone anymore. I turned around to see Sandra in the flesh, and I was so surprise that I stood there as she hugged me.

"Mum, you're here. I can't believe you're really here," I said to her. Never in the 4 years of my study has my mum ever visited me, but I don't mean that as a bad thing. We just didn't have enough money for her to come and go. I also haven't been home since then.

"I'm sorry, we were a tad late," she said as she break the hug. 

"We?" I asked confused. Her eyes narrowed to my back, and I hurriedly turned around to see Zayn's face briefly before he gave me a bone-crushing hug.

"I miss you so much, baby," he whispered in my ear. 

"God, I miss you too," I said. I hugged him tightly like my life depended on it. It has been months since I've seen him, and I missed his touch so much. His voice. Above all, I missed his lips and so I pulled back without caring about the world, I give him a kiss. It was an innocent kiss since I hated PDA. 

Suddenly I hear someone say, "Gross". I knew that someone's voice that it took me just a second to pull back and see if I was right. Dylan.

"Dylan oh my god, you're here," I yelled as I ran to my brother. He smiled at me smugly. The crowd seemed to have vanished after my reunion with Dylan, Mum, and Zayn, but the surprise did not stop there. I looked around to see Tricia and Zayn's sisters and of course the boys. 

"Surprise," Eliz said after we were all caught up.

"You did this?" I asked Eliz.

"Of course not silly," she chuckled, "I help came up with it."

"Then who.." I trailed as I was pulled back with a hug. I smiled, of course he would. "Zayn." In response, he smiled michiviously. As I said, I am not a huge fan of PDA, but something told me this was different. I could feel everyone's eyes on us but despite that I said, "I love you Zayn Javadd Malik, you know that?" 

"I do, and I am the luckiest guy to have you," he said. He was acting weird. I looked at him for a hint of what he was up to, but I got nothing. He gave me a genuine smile that I swear could bring peace on this planet as he continued, "which is why I have a question to ask you."

"O..kay," I said unsure. He was definitely acting weird.

"I've never felt anything like this before, Sadie," he started and I could feel my heart pounding loudly. I was not in my graduation anymore but with him. It was only us at that moment. "You are the world to me, love. I will never let this feeling go. I will never let you go. I don't have a fucking clue what I am going to do without you, so I sure am not planning on doing that," he said and I chuckled both with nervousness and his charm. "I love you so much." he added. Before my mind could register what was happening, Zayn was on his knees with a ring on his hand. "Sadielane Thompson, will you do the honor of marrying me?"
