{REMEMBER THIS IS A ZAYN CHAPTER}

Fuck, I feel so stupid. I don't know how many times my mum brought up Sydney being my girlfriend this weekend. She's so fucking right. That's what we are, just without the boyfriend/girlfriend label. I guess I'm just scared-scared that it'll scare Sydney off.

In the small span of two months, she's taken up the empty space in my heart. She's changed everything. It's like I'm not being held down my gravity anymore; it's her. She's my whole world and so much more. I'm stupidly in love with Sydney François, and I'm scared that she'll leave me because of that.

Love is just a scary thing. Loving someone means that they have a significant part in your life. It's not just a word, like some people use it. You don't really 'love' that pair of shoes, because as soon as they get tattered and torn, you'll throw them in the garbage. When you love someone, you'll do everything for that person, even if it means going to hell and back.

My alarm goes off, signaling that I need to get out of bed and get ready for work. I grab my phone, turning off the alarm, and checking my texts. Surprisingly enough, I have one from just the girl I wanted to hear from.

I can't help the smile that spreads across mu lips, as I put my phone down. I roll out of my bed, groaning, and looking through my closet. I find my favourite white and red muscle shirt, and a pair of black jeans. I hop into the shower, before getting dressed, styling my hair, and brushing my teeth. I decide against shaving, leaving the stubble on my jaw, chin, and upper lip. I quickly fix myself a salad, then grab my jacket and my bike helmet.

The second I open the door, Anthony's head snaps up. He has a smug smirk playing on his lips. I flip him off, glaring as I continue to my room to put my helmet and jacket away, then to the break room, where I put my salad away. I make my way bag, sliding onto one of the bar stools.

"How was your weekend with angel and the fam?" Anthony asks, smirking to himself.

"It was great. Nice to see my family, and Danny and Jesy."

"Oh, how are they working out?"

"They are doing great. Still going strong."

"How are you and Syd working out?"
