Part 36 - Zayn's Problem

It’s 4.00 p.m. already I didn’t realize that. We decided to go home because we know that Liam would be worried about us. Maybe especially Louis because he’s always protective when it comes to Elena. Louis and I had a little conversation when I was about to ask Elena out this morning.

So when I was about to knock Elena’s room, Louis just passed.

“Zayn?”

“Hey Lou.”

“Take Elena out?”

I was surprised at first, but then I realized that he always could read everyone’s mind. “It’s a good day to clear things up.”

“You’re not going to do any thing worse to her.” He was a bit suspicious.

“You know that. Everything’s already fine. I’ve been so bad to her, I know.” I meant it so bad.

He saw me and came closer to pat my shoulder. “It’s good that you still have your gentle side. Think before you act!”

It was clearly seen that Louis also got upset about that night at the carnival. I don’t want to make him disappointed. I don’t want to make the lads disappointed anymore.

So Elena and I just got home and apparently Louis, Niall, Liam and Harry are playing a war with their nerf guns. I immediately know that because right when I open the door, I suddenly get hit in the chest with the bullet.

“OW!!”

It hurts but not really bad. Niall, Louis, Liam and Harry slowly stick out their head from their hiding places. But then they hide themselves again when I catch them up.

Louis suddenly shouts, “targets are getting surprised!”

“What?” I get confused, I laugh it off instead.

Elena who’s still waiting for me to make a move, sticks out her head to look inside.

I take a step, but suddenly Louis shouts again, “target is making a move, warning! I repeat, target is making a move!”

Louis then hides himself down behind the sofa, and I can see Niall is crawling while carrying his nerf gun with his left hand -- over to the other hiding place. The table.

“Guys it’s not fair that we both don’t have any guns.” I said to them, complaining.

Suddenly two nerf guns are thrown over at me from the sofa near the stairs. I wonder either it’s Liam or Harry.

I smile at Elena at my back and she smiles back at me. We reach our guns and the war starts when I shout, “FOR NARNIAAA!!!”

[Let’s go to Elena’s POV!]

“Thank you for today, Zayn. I really had so much fun.” I said, smiling at his sweet face.

He smiles back at me. “No. Thank you.”

I smile at him weirdly. “Why did you say it back? I thought that it was supposed to be ‘you’re welcome’?”

“No. I guess ‘taking you out’ is my new hobby now. I really enjoyed every single minute with you and I think I’m the one who got the favor the most.” He said sincerely. I can see that from his eyes.

My reaction to those words is only smiling. “Really?” I said shyly, looking at my feet.

I hear he chuckles. Then he touches my left cheek by his right hand and suddenly he kisses my right cheek very gently. Oh, God! Oh, God!! Oh, GOD!! I feel hot inside! No kidding! I get really surprised and freeze! My heart beats faster and faster now!
