"Zayn?" "Yeah?" "What's wrong?" "Nothing, why?" "You've been staring at the wall for fifteen minutes." "Oh? Sorry." I raised my eyebrow. "What's up?" "Just thinking." "Bout what?" "Us." I gulped, scooting closer to him. "What about us?" "Why do you love me?" I drew my eyebrows together in confusion but answered anyway. "You're a really sweet guy that actually cares about me. You're trying to change for me which is amazing. You've went out of your way to be nice to me. You're very attractive and I love to spend time with you. Why?" "I'm just afraid..." "Afraid of what?" "I'm afraid one day you'll see me how I see myself." My eyes glossed over. "What? Babe, what do you mean?" "I'm afraid you'll see how horrible of a person I am and not wanna be with me and...I don't know. It's scary. I've killed people and that might not be dawning on you now but it will sooner or later and you'll leave me. All because I'm a monster." "That's not gonna happen Zayn. You're not a monster okay? You did a couple bad things but you're a good person that just made a bad choice alright? Those things don't make me love you any less." "Honestly?" I nod. He pulls me into his lap, holding me against him. "I love you." "I love you too Zayn. So much. I always will." My hand reached up, tangling my fingers in his hair. He leaned down, pressing our lips together. "You promise me?" I nod, kissing him again. "You PROMISE me?" I nod, growing confused. "Good." "Zayn? What are you talking about?" "Nothing. By the way we leave in two days." "Two days? How long will we be gone?" "Long enough." "I need to know how long we'll be gone so I can pack." "Pack for a week." I nod, putting my face in his neck. "I need to call work." "It's already taken care of." "What?" "I called Marcy and told her." "Oh...Thanks." He nods, putting his face in my neck as well.

We were as close as we possibly could be.

"I have to go babe." I groan. "Why?" "I've have to go to work." "Oh...Where do you work?" "Tattoo parlor." I nod, slipping my hands into his. "I'll miss you." "I'll miss you too." He presses a quick kiss to my lips before setting me beside him and throwing his coat on. "Bye Blue." "Bye Dumbass."

I smile to myself, wrapping myself in a blanket, staring at nothing. I'm completely, utterly in love with that boy.

The door opened. "Why are you so smiley babe?" "Zayn." "Oh really?" He asks, plopping down beside me. I nod. "Yeah...We're going on vacation...Did he tell you?" "No...? Where to?" "I dunno. He won't tell me." "Oh. How long will you be gone?" "A week." He nods, wrapping an arm around my shoulders. "No! You stink!" I exclaim, laughing. "Oh c'mere. You know you love it!" I squeal as he pulls me into his lap, engulfing me in his horrible, sweaty smell. "Are you excited for the vacation?" I nodded, hugging him back. "Be careful okay?" "What do you mean?" "I don't want him to hurt you." "He wouldn't hurt me." "I'm just saying...He snaps a lot. Be safe okay?" I nod. "Call me if he does something. Promise me." "I will. Promise." "Good." He presses a kiss to my forehead. "Don't get pregnant." "What?! I won't!!" "Mhmm...Just be safe." I roll my eyes and get up, going upstairs to shower.

When I got out, Zayn was sitting on my bed. My face went red and I quickly covered myself with my towel. "What the hell are you doing here?! Aren't you supposed to be at work?" He smirked. "Hello to you too babe. And for your information, I didn't actually have to go to work. I went to get you something." I rolled my eyes. "Zayn!! You shouldn't've got something for me. Now leave so I can change." "Hmm, don't think so babe. I like my view." "I hate you." "Oh come on baby, just change." I rolled my eyes, doing so anyway. I slipped on some yoga shorts and a sports bra.

"C'mere babe." I crawled in bed beside him, cuddling into his chest. "What'd you get me anyway?" "I can't tell you actually." I pout, kissing his jaw. "Why?" "Because it's a secret till...forever." "A secret till forever?" He nods, smiling. "Makes sense baby." We sit in silence for a while. "How long do you think we'll be together?" "I dunno. Hopefully for a while." I answer honestly, slipping my hand into his. He nods, seeming to like my answer. "I hope so too. As long as I don't mess up." "I trust you won't." "I might though. I'm worried I will." I shook my head and sat up so I was straddling his waist, a knee on each side of him. "You won't mess up." "But if I do you said you won't give me another chance." "Then don't give me a reason to not give you one."
