Cheryl above. Love Katherine McNamara! ❤

Zayn dropped me home after that and I realized I was pretty late. I tried to sneak in without anyone knowing but being the ever so smart parents, my mom came out of the kitchen scaring me in the process.

'Yes, young lady? Thank God it's a Sunday tomorrow. I would have not let you in this late.'

'Mom? You would just shut me out?' I asked her in disbelief.

'I think,' she replied bluntly, 'Anyways, to your room now. Try not be late again.'

I nodded and ran off to my room and watched as Zayn glanced at my window one last time before speeding out the driveway. My heart rate paced just by thinking of all the time we spent together that day. It was to be cherished forever. Was this a new start? Was this going to last forever?

I tried my best to shake off the thoughts of Zayn for sometime to concentrate on changing and going to bed. I was scared this divided attention would affect my studies.

Monday came fast, I wanted to dress up more than I usually do. I woke up with a bright mood, took a quick shower and changed into my denim skirt and a white loose v neck full sleeved top. I tied my hair into a loose French braid and pat my lips with a light tint before heading downstairs.

'Bread,' I say and Harmony passes it on, I spread some Nutella on it and devour it before going outside to wear my dad was opening his car door.

'Why isn't mom up?' I asked him.

'Sleeping,' he said, 'She is ill. Had a fever so I told her to stay in bed and we could go to the doctor in the evening. Although she says it's a viral but still.'

I hum in response before a car pulls up at the driveway. White Ford Fusion. Zayn? He got out from his car and I eyed him questioningly. He chuckled and took me by the waist planting a kiss to my cheek whilst my dad looked at him skeptically.

'Zayn, my dad's here you know. Behind the car,' I told him and he walked up to my dad and shook his hand, coolly.

'How are you sir?' he said and my dad nodded shaking his hand strongly jerking it in the process, to which I laughed giving him a acknowledging nod.

'How about you?' he asked and Zayn gave his formal 'very well' reply before he asked the permission to take me to school with him. I gave him a flat face before diving into the passenger seat.

'You could have told me,' I said and he smirked.

'What's the fun in that?' he said slyly, 'And weren't you surprised?'

I smiled and hugged him, 'Yeah I was surprised. Thankyou.'

He started the car and the engine booked to life. 'I like you as my girlfriend. These frequent hugs and all. I enjoy that.'

'Shut up, you sound like some sort of creep,' I told him and he clicked his tongue.

'Yeah, but you're never going to loose that sass, will you?' he said and I chuckled, shaking my head.

We got to school in no time and I kissed him one last time on the cheek before going to my Maths class and greeting Stacie on my seat. 'So, Ryder got back to his routine of being late again?' I asked her amused.

She sighed, bored, 'He just had to.'

'Speak of the devil,' I said and nodded to the door, where Ryder entered. Stacie chuckled and shoved me lightly, 'My brother is an angel,' she said like a monk and I couldn't help but snort. 'Right.'

I went through the first half of the day quickly before heading to the canteen to get my lunch. I carried my tray to our table where Bella was already seated beside Ryder and Felicity was gagging at them as they kissed.
