The day we met (Zayn Malik Fanfic)

Chapter 20 "Just as he promised"

Zayn's P.O.V

We were all just hanging out in my place, me, the boys, Jane and Ella, when all of a sudden, two people screaming just barged right into my front door making all of us jump out of our seats.

"What the hell has gotten into you two?", Harry yelled, catching his breath from the scare we just got.

"Oh my god, you guys", Ivy squealed. 

"Yes? Babe, are you OK?", I asked, a bit concerned, at this point, I wasn't sure whether she was happy or sad.

"OK? OK? OK is not the word for it", Gemma yelled, ok so that definitely was out of excitement, it must be good news. 

"Are we just going to yell, squeal and jump all day or are you actually going to share whatever news you have?", Niall asked, getting a little impatient.

"Right", Ivy said, more calm now, "Take a seat everybody", she announced, 'Me and Gemma have some really exciting news to share with you all". We all took a seat, right where everbody was before these two crazy girls came running in, I couldn't help but smile at how happy they looked, Ivy had the biggest smile on her face and Gemma was literally jumping and squealing like a little bunny.

Ivy's P.O.V

"Right" I tried to calm myself down but my heart was just bouncing and beating so fast, it felt impossible. "Take a seat everybody, Me and Gemma have some really exciting news to share with you all", I annonced, everyone took a seat in the living room, where we basically were.

"Me and Gemma are going to New York where our art work will be displayed at an art gallery", I was so excited that the previous sentence came out of my mouth as fast as possible, and by the looks the guys had on their faces, I wasn't sure any of them caught on what I'd just said. Everyone was just staring blatantly at both of us like we were speaking in Chinese, until someone finally spoke up,

"I'm not really sure what you just said but I think you said something about going to a fart gallery in New York?", Niall said, raising his eybrows, unsure of what he heard. I looked over at Gemma and we both broke out in laughter.

"I think what Ivy was trying to say is that college picked the two us plus two other students to go to New York where we will be tutored with some really famous professors and at the end of the year, some of our art work will be displayed at an art gallery", Gemma explained.

"Oh my god", Zayn shouted, running over to me and giving me a bear squishing hug, "I'm so proud of you", he gently said into my ear. We then started to recieve congratulations from all the other guys, "Is it like a summer course thing?", Ella asked.

"Nope, we finish the rest of the school year there", I said, my voice still shaking from excitement.

"Wait, so you're going away for a year?", Zayn said, sounding a bit hurt. In all honesty, I haven't thought about being away for the rest of the year, the news was way to exciting that I haven't thought about leaving all my friends here and espcially Zayn, I felt selfish forgetting about all of that and thinking about myself. "I haven't even thought about that", I whispered to myself, my thoughts obviously being outspoken by accident, even though I didn't mean to blurt it out, my voice was loud enough among the slience that swept the room. "You haven't thought about me?", Zayn whispered, sounded like he choked on his own words. "Zayn, I ...", I didn't know what to say, my mouth froze, and before I could even think about mending what i'd just said, Zayn was long gone, slamming the door behind him.

"What a douche, don't even bother Ivy, he's just being selfish, congratulations babe", Harry said, giving me a reassuring hug. I hugged back but quickly pulled away and ran after Zayn. He was being selfish, but I still felt guilty not talking to him about it before.
