Malibami / 1d

chapter twenty

The past week has been hard. 

Ever since I walked in to Liam's frat house, seeing the fun my old friends had and realizing how shocked Dylan and Colin were about my arms, I realized what I had left behind. There was no way Dylan hadn't told my brother, just like there was no way Liam thought it was anybody else then Zayn who did it to me.

It was Friday, meaning that Christmas break would officially start after this last day of classes. And how would Kappa Sigma start Christmas break? An official Christmas frat party. First I didn't want to go, but I couldn't let Zayn down like that. 

I had been hanging out with him regular, but recently the only way we could hang out were with lots of alcohol or underneath the sheets which usually went well together. This resulted in cuddling until we fell asleep and me leaving early in the morning before he woke up.

I was ripped out of my thoughts when the doorbell rang. Kelsey and Lou had already left for classes so I got up and walked over to the door. 

I opened it and immediately, lips were pressed to mine. I was shocked and pulled away, seeing it was Zayn, smiling at me. "You left so early this morning." He pouted while walking past me, in to the little apartment. I turned around and held out my arms, hugging him. He picked me up in to the air slightly, making me squeal. "I like this little plaid skirt you're wearing." I giggled until he put me down.

Zayn walked over to the living room, plopped down on the couch and stared at me. I walked in to the kitchen and took some iced tea, drinking it and then walking over to Zayn.

I cuddled in to his side and we just sat there for a second. 

"We should probably go to class." I murmured. "We should." Zayn groaned. "Come on, two classes left until Christmas break." This got me excited. I was so excited for Christmas.

Besides having to spend some of it with my family, Liam included, Zayn and I had decided that since he was staying at the frat house this break, we could do festive things like watch every Christmas movie there was and decorating gingerbread houses.

"Okay, let's go!" I jumped up, grabbing his hand and pulling him up from the couch. Zayn laughed, following me. We both got our bags and walked out of the apartment.

I followed Zayn to his motorcycle, trying to sit down on it. "This skirt was not made for sitting on a motorcycle." I laughed, trying to keep it down but slightly failing. I grabbed my scarf and wrapped it around so people couldn't see my underwear.

We left and made the small drive to the building we had to go to. It was busy, people just got back from lunch and everyone was heading to their next class. We were running a little late, but looking around it looked like we weren't the only ones.

Zayn parked his motorcycle and got off, helping me get off. I quickly took off the scarf as cover up skirt and then grabbed Zayn's hand, walking in to the building. 

"Lily!" I looked up to see Rob walking over to me. I widened my eyes and dropped Zayn's hand, staring at him and then at Rob. "I'll see you around Lily." Zayn said, giving Rob a friendly nod and then walking off. 

Rob furrowed his brows and stared at Zayn who walked off and at me. "What were you doing with Zayn Malik? Didn't your brother tell you to try and stay away from him?" Rob immediately asked. This ment he probably did not see us holding hands.

"I know, but we're in the same class, so he just asked me something about the homework." I told him. We started walking, Rob basically bringing me to my next class, which didn't bother me. 

"Don't worry, Rob, I stay away from him as much as possible but that doesn't mean I shouldn't be friendly." I told him. He nodded, stopping at my classroom, watching me walk in.
