"Three"
"Two"
"One"
Zayn whispers and then takes away his hands from my eye. I look up completely blindfolded by the sight I am just seeing. Is this a dream? Am I still asleep? I don't want this to be a dream.
In front of me I see lanterns. The most beautiful ones I've ever seen. All just floating in the sky in a peaceful manner. There might be thousands, I can never be able to count how many are there right now. This feels like the scene in Rapunzel, except this is way more beautiful.
I get closer to Zayn and I hold his hand without taking my eyes off the lanterns even for a second. I feel him squeeze my hand but I don't react and I keep looking at the breathtaking view. Everything about it gives me goosebumps, I don't even have words to describe what I'm seeing right now without sounding cheesy as fuck.
I just stand there and adore what I'm seeing. I don't know for how long we're standing this way. I don't even wanna know how these got here. I'm so taken away by the presence of these lanterns. I can feel Zayn watching me and not the sky, I think I'm not sure, I'm just concentrating on the lit sky and I'm happy Zayn is just allowing me to enjoy the view.
After ages I guess. I don't even know how long, he finally speaks taking my breath away again.
"Happy birthday Angel"
I hear him say in the most sweetest/ sexiest voice I've ever heard, which is just perfect for the mood right now.
I turn and look at Zayn, whose giving me a wide smile. I'm so overwhelmed right now, I don't take time to think about anything, I jump on him and wrap my arms around him with tears in my eyes.
He's taken aback by my sudden move but then he wraps his hands around my pulling me closer to him. The smell of chocolate hitting me again.
He remembers! He remembered my birthday and gave me the best gift anyone has ever given me.
"T-thanks Zayn" I cry and he grabs my arm pulling me back.
"Angel don't cry. You're not gonna cry today" he says wiping my eyes and then wrapping his arms around me again, i hug him back like my life depends on him.
"I'm so happy Zayn" I speak and I feel him rubbing my back.
"I'm happy too" he says I can I feel him smiling.
"Thanks. Thank you so much for this" I say feeling the tears forming again.
"Shush let's admire this it's gonna fade in sometime." He whispers and I nod staying in the same position. I don't pull back from Zayn, for some odd reason i feel like staying like this now and forever.
We stay like that until I can see the last lantern vanish in the clouds. I finally pull back and look at Zayn with a huge smile on my face.
"Where is it going now?" I asked.
"I'm not sure about that" he chuckles rubbing his head with his left hand.
"How did it even come here? I'm so confused. How did know that those lanterns is comming here? Did you do this? I wanna kn-" he closes my mouth with his hand.
"Shush. You ask too many questions Angel." I glare at him.
"Which I will answer" he laughs making me smile.
"What's today?" He asks.
"My birthday duh" I roll my eyes.
"Yeah I know. But what's the date today?" He asks and I frown.
