Forget Me Not [Z.M]

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

*Zayn's POV*

I flipped another pancake as Chloe and Lexa walked in together. She had her hair in a ponytail and was wearing black denim shorts, a white crop top and black vans.

I can't believe I nearly kissed her and told her to forget about it. I should have just told her how I feel.

"Morning ladies." I winked at both of them.

"Morning Malik" Chloe smiled and went to Harry. Lexa walked over to me.

"Hey Zaynie, I can't remember the last time you cooked without setting something on fire." She giggled, sitting on the counter.

"Haha, very funny. Well, I happen to be an amazing chef." I told her proudly.

"Yeah right." She shook her head. She knew me so well.

"Fine. I nearly burned down Nan's kitchen once so mum forced me to take cooking lessons. She even came with me." I said, putting a pancake on a plate and handing it to her.

"Thanks Zayn." She laughed and walked to the living room. I quickly turned the cooker off and went to the living room to join everyone.

"Zayn, did you know Chloe and Harry are a thing now?" She told me. I shook my head and looked at Harry.

"If you guys hadn't sneaked out yesterday you would have known." Harry said smugly.

"Speaking of sneaking out."

We looked up to see Laura walking in the room. She placed a magazine on the centre table.

"What is this?" She asked.

The cover was a picture of Lexa and I holding hands outside the cinema. I looked at Lexa who was reading the full article.

"So? What's the big deal?" I asked.

"What if something had happened between you two? The fans won't like it if they find out Zayn is back together with his ex girlfriend." Laura said.

"No, you got it wrong. Me and Zayn aren't together." Lexa told Karen.

"Let's hope it stays that way. You two shouldn't be seen together like this. Its bad publicity." Laura said.

"Why the hell do the rest of them get to have girlfriends? You were fine when I was with Perrie." I demanded. I was starting to get angry now.

"Zayn. You know what I mean." Liam was dating Danielle before all of this and Eleanor is a model." Laura said. "It's better if at least one of you appeared to be single so the fans will feel as if they have a chance.

"Now be careful. See you in Florida." Laura said before walking out.

I knew what the hell she meant. That Lexa isn't good enough for me. I need someone 'famous'. Well she isn't in control of who I date.

I didn't know why I was getting so angry since I wasn't even dating Lexa. I wish.

Maybe that's the problem. I want something I can't have.

"Fucking bullshit." I muttered, standing up and walking to my room.

*Lexa's POV*

I could feel everyone looking at me.

"He really likes you." Liam said. I shook my head, refusing to believe it.

"I doubt it. He just doesn't like being told what to do." I said in response. I gave the rest of my pancake to Niall before standing up.

"Where are you going?" Danielle asked me.

"To talk to Zayn." I answered leaving the rpo..

I walked upstairs and knocked on the door. I heard him mumble something and took it as a cue to come in. I walked into the room to find Zayn lying on his bed staring at the ceiling. I lay beside him and looked up.

"You have a pretty ceiling." I said after a few moments of silence.

He smiled. "I'm sorry I got angry down there. Management seems to mess with everything in my life. I can't go out with my best friend without getting told off."

I felt slightly disappointed. Friend zoned.

I snuggled up to Zayn and cuddled him. I felt him put his arms round me. We lay in silence for a while.

"I miss the days we used to go camping. Just lay there and stare at the sky." I said quietly.

No response.

I looked up to see that Zayn was fast asleep. I struggled to get out of his grasp but once I did I quietly put a blanket over him.

I looked at him one more time before walking downstairs. Everyone looked up when I entered into the room.

"He's asleep." I told them. They nodded and carried on with their conversations.

I sat beside Niall who put his feet on me.

"Niall. Get your smelly feet away from me before I burn them." I said sternly.

"Nahh. I think I'll keep them there." He grinned, wiggling his toes.

I pushed his feet off me. He pouted and put his head on my shoulder.

"Aw. Is little Niall sad." I asked. He nodded.

"Would Nialler like a big kiss." I continued.

"Yeah buddy." He grinned, sitting up straight.

"Too bad Leprechaun." I said pushing him away.

"We better start packing or at least get some more sleep. Because we will be leaving for Florida soon." Liam told us. I nodded.

"I'm going to get some shut eye." I said before running upstairs and into Zayn's room. He looked up when I came in.

"Hey. I thought you were sleeping." I said walking over to him.

"I was but you left me all alone." He frowned. I laughed and lay beside him.

He put the blanket over me, wrapping his arm around my waist. I smiled amd shut my eyes, falling asleep.

Zaynie and Alex sleeping. So cute x > > >
