Ever since I've agreed to be his girlfriend, Alex has been nothing but the best for me. So far, everything was butterflies and sunshines for me. I can also say the same thing for Jenny and Jack. We love to go on double dates and I've been spending more time in Jack's house, watching their band rehearse. There is an upcoming festival in our town and they are inviting amateur bands to have a chance to perform and who knows, maybe get discover. Fingers crossed, right?

As for Zayn, after his breakup with Sally, he started hanging out with us more. Word got spread around about his breakup and it seems more people side Sally than him but he couldn't care less. The weird thing is that he's been friendly with Alex but what is more weirder is that he's been extra friendly with me. When I said extra friendly, I meant, really extra friendly. He kept showering me with small gifts like a flower or some treats that I like. He also goes back to giving me pecks on the cheek or forehead. Alex disapproved at first, which is understandable considering he's my boyfriend now, but I reassured him that Zayn used to do it to me all time so it's nothing new. Going back to him being friendly with Alex and knowing how they weren't on good terms from the start so seeing both of them laughing at a joke is quite something. I still couldn't wrap my finger about my bestfriend being friendly with my boyfriend but I'm thankful that they, at least stop fighting. Jenny was curious about it but she didn't question him, not wanting to jinx anything. 

"Lucky?" I snapped out of my thoughts and look up at a pair of brown eyes that I love. "You okay? You seems to be far away." I shrugged but smile.

"Just daydreaming." He chuckled at my respond before heading back to his spot. My gaze follows Jack, who is comparing his non existent muscles with Zack. I, then, look at Rian who is behind his drum set, talking on the phone. Jenny is upstairs in the kitchen, getting some food for us. 

"Alright guys!" Alex shouted. "Let's start!" Everybody went to their places and Rian gave a signal before they started playing. They started playing "Somewhere In Neverland" which they have played before but a new version of it. My mind started to drift off again towards Zayn. What is that boy up to? No one can just be nice to someone that they don't like instantly. I can get that he's becoming nice to me because he wants to be my best friend back, but with Alex? I sighed out and ran my fingers through my hair. Jenny returned back from upstairs and flopped down next to me, handing a can of coke. 

We continued watching the guys until they end the band rehearsal.

"Bye gang!" I waved as Alex and I walk away from Jack's house. Alex wrapped an arm around my shoulders, pulling me closer. I leaned my head on his shoulder, taking in his warmth. "Let's hang at your place." He suggested. I nodded and he gave a little squeezed. 

"Lucky!" We stopped in our tracks and turn around. Zayn was jogging and stopped right in front of us. "Hey guys. Where were you from?"

"We were from Jack's place." I answered. "They had band rehearsal."

"Okay. Anyways, you free right now?" He shoved his hands in his pockets as he waits for my answer. I looked up at Alex and sense a hint of annoyance radiating from him. I smiled apologetically to Zayn.

"Sorry, Zayn. But I'm hanging with Alex." 

"But come on, it's just for one day. I promise that I won't disturb you anymore." He turn to look at Alex. "I won't cut in anymore. Just this once." I can feel Alex breathing out in frustration. I know he doesn't like it when someone interrupted our time but seeing the sad look on Zayn's face, I just couldn't help myself. I pulled myself from Alex's arm. 

"We can hang later at night, okay?" I reassured him. "Please?" I gave him a smile. Alex gives me a look before he finally agree. He pull my lips towards his, making me blush especially when I know Zayn is right there. We pulled apart and he gave me a peck on the top of my head. 

"Text me at night, kay?" I nodded and walk towards Zayn.

"Thanks man. I owe you." He said to Alex. He just nodded and sent me a smile as he made his way to his car. 

"So where are we going, Zayn?" I asked as he pulled my hand in his. He shot me a cheeky smile.

"You'll see but don't worry, you'll love it." I giggled and nodded. 

"Okay. I trust you." 

"But first, " He stopped and pull out his itouch and his earpieces. He shot me a look as he push his earpeices in my hands.

"Are you serious?" I exclaimed. He smile and nodded. I rolled my eyes and put them on. He then pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket. "You have to wear this." I raised my eyebrow questionally at him but he nodded. I puff out my cheeks and turned around. He blindfolded me and tied it at the back but not to tight.

"And because I don't want you to know where we are going." He said and started playing "Hands In the Air" by Timbaland feat Ne-yo. I giggle at his ridiculous song choice but it's a good beat. My hands immediately search for his because I hate the dark. His arms went around me and he push me slowly, not wanting me to step on anything or trip on my steps. He got me in what I think it's his car and soon he started driving away. I dance to the beat of the song, not caring he was right beside me. As long as he doesn't videotaped me. After driving for a few minutes, the car stop. The song was on repeat so I'm pretty sure it will get stuck in my head soon.

He got me out of the car and his arms went around me again. He pushed me slowly to start walking. I can feel his warmth breathe fanning my neck but I tried to ignored it as much as possible. I silently thank him for standing behind me so he won't be able to see the blush forming on my face. 

We walked for a few minutes until he stopped me. 

"Okay, ready?" He asked. I nodded. I felt his fingers untying the blindfold. My eyes slowly adjusted and I gasp at the sight in front of me.

"Woah." The only sound that escaped my lips.
