Moments (A Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson fanfic)

Chapter Twelve

Zayn's POV

               I laid wide awake in bed. I can't sleep at all. All I have on my mind is Vanessa. What if she's right? What if I jumped on her a little too fast in the midst of getting rid of my feelings for Perrie? No, my feelings for Vanessa are sincere right? Perrie's out of my life, Vanessa is now. I can't let her get away because of my jealousy getting the best of me. I sighed. I'm going to go apologize.

Vanessa's POV

                I was awaken by a knock on the door. Who could it be at 1 am? Groaning, I silently got out of bed to see who it was. To my surprise, when I answered the door, it was Zayn. I was about to shut the door in his face but Zayn put his foot to stop it. "Please Vanessa..." "What? Are you gonna yell at me again? Look, I don't have time for your bullshit, Zayn." I told him as I quietly closed the door behind me. He put his hands over my shoulders. "No, babe, I'm sorry for how I treated you earlier. I was worried about you. You're my friend, I don't want anything bad happening to you. I know I was a jerk. Please forgive me." A smile of satisfaction spread across my face. "I forgive you." Zayn suddenly pulled me into a hug. "I'm so sorry." he said as he ran his huge hand up and down the back of my head. "Dork, I already told you I forgive you!" I said breaking away from him.

               I sat down on the top step of the stairs and Zayn joined me. "So why were you here earlier?" I interrogated, looking out into the night sky. "To come tell you I'm leaving next week." "WHAT?!" "I'm leaving as in I have to go to America with the lads to do some extra shows for two weeks." "Oh..." "Yeah..." He looked as though he was about to say something else. I let it go. "Zayn?" "Hm?" "Is it bad that I still haven't heard any of you guys' songs?" "Very," he said letting out a chuckle. "Want me to sing you one?" I nodded my hand. "He takes your hand, I die a little. I watch your eyes and I'm in riddles. Why can't you look at me like that? When you walk by, I try to say it. But then I freeze and never do it. My tongue gets tied the words get trapped. I hear the beat of my heart getting louder whenever I'm near you..." He continued singing the song. I listened intently. "Oh how I wish, that was me..." "What was that called?" "I Wish." "I like it." We sat in silence for a while until I started shivering. "Zayn, I'm going to bed." Zayn stood up and helped me up. "Night Vanessa." "By the way, I like your hair better flat" I told him as I started messing it up. "Night dork."

Louis' POV

     "Did you tell Melissa?" Harry asked when I woke up the next morning. I walked into the kitchen to see him making a bowl of cereal. I sat down next to him and made a bowl for myself. "Yeah I told her." I said and rubbed my eyes. I was still half asleep. "How did she take it?" he asked. "A lot better than I thought she would. She's a little upset, but that's to be expected. We just decided that we would have to be together even more this week before we have to leave." "You two? Be together even more than you already are? Is that even possible?" he joked. I laughed. "She said the same thing. I guess we'll have to be together everyday for the next few days then." I smiled. I'm looking forward to that.

     After I finished my breakfast, took a shower, and got dressed I texted Melissa telling her that I would pick her up at the studio again. "So what are you guys planning to do today?" Harry asked. "I'm going to pick her up at the studio again. She doesn't know it yet but then we're gonna go to Green Park and I'm gonna bring a picnic again." "Isn't that what you did for your first date?" "Yeah." I smiled. "D'awww! Boobear that's so adowable!" he teased. I smiled and rolled my eyes and saw that I had a text.

From: Melissa

Okay. :D What are we doing?

To: Melissa

It's a surprise :)

These next few days are gonna be amazing.

Melissa's POV

     I'm wrapping up another day at work. Today was a little stressful. Today we had a family that wanted to take family portraits with their baby. Trying to get babies to sit still for pictures is always a fun time. At least Louis and I will be together again today. He won't tell me what we're doing though. I'm not sure whether I should be excited or scared. I'm definitley excited. I get my stuff and walk out the door when I see Louis standing in front of his car, right where he was yesterday. "Hello love!" he said as I walked up to him and he hugged me. "Will you please tell me what we're doing yet?" I asked anxiously. He just smiled and walked around the car to open the door for me, completely ignoring my question on purpose. "You're a pain in the butt sometimes." I laughed. "You love me right?" he asked. "Sometimes." I said. "Yes!" he said excited. I rolled my eyes and laughed. He's such a loser.

     A few minutes after he started driving I realized we weren't going to either one of our flats. "Where are we going??" I pleaded. "Green park!" he said excited. "Aww yay!" I smiled and looked down to see a picnic basket on the floor. Just like our first date. That's so sweet. We got to the park and set up our picnic close to, if not the same spot we were at on our first date. We sat there for a while just talking. It was really pretty because we got to watch the sun set from where we were sitting. We started throwing grapes at each other trying to make it in each other's mouths. We kept missing. Just then I saw a flashing light coming from behind a tree. Don't tell me that's- "Is that paparazzi?" Louis asked. Apparently he saw it too. "I think so." I replied. We packed up the picnic basket and started running from the paparazzi guy.

     We kept running until we lost sight of the paparazzi guy. We ended up towards the back of the park where there was a lonely trail surrounded by trees. There was absolutely nobody back here. It felt like we had the park to ourselves. It was great. We held hands walking through the park and just talked about random things. By this time it was dark outside. I noticed him looking up at the sky obviously thinking about something. "What are you thinking about?" I asked. "I love how whereever you are in the world, you're always looking at the same moon." I smiled. "That was deep, Dr. Tomlinson." He laughed. I stood on my toes to kiss him on the cheek and I rested my head on his shoulder as we continued walking. One of my favorite things about him is that I feel like I can talk to him about absolutely anything. I really wish he didn't have to leave in a few days.

Zayn's POV

She said she liked the song. What she didn't know was that I was singing about her.
