At 6 o'clock, Liam was at my house. At 6:30, I was still having a hard time picking out what I was going to wear. At 7, Luke was was knocking at the door. I was a nervous wreak, and Peighton, no matter how hard I tired, wouldn't let go of my leg. I groaned, asking Liam to go let Luke in, then bent down to Peighton's height. I unwrapped her arms from my leg, and held them in my arms.
"No go, daddy. No go!" She whined. I shifted her onto my lap so I was siting on the floor. I looked her right in the eyes, and it looked like she was going to start crying at any moment. I understand why. I've never left her like this at night.
"Daddy, is just going to have diner with Papa. Okay? I'll be back later, but you need to be good for Uncle Liam. If I hear you were bad, you're going to be in a lot of trouble. Do you understand?" I asked with a stern look. She nodded sadly, and gave me a big hug. "Okay then. Go find Uncle Liam." She ran off to the entry way, and I followed, only to find Liam talking to Luke and Peighton giving Luke a look. I sighed, and walked over to the three. Luke smiled when he saw me, and I blushed a little, not exactly knowing why.
"You look amazing, Zayn. Ready to go?" Luke asked.
"Yeah. Just remember, Li, she needs to be in bed by 8. I don't care what she tells you. 8 is bedtime." Liam chuckled at me, and started pushing me out the door.
"Go. Have fun. I got it. Bye," He said, closing and locking the door in my face. I huffed, turning to look at a grinning Luke. He stretched out his hand, which I took automatically. It felt like we were never separated. It still felt right, no matter how many years went by. He lead me to his car, and we headed out to wherever we were going. It was silent, but it was one that wasn't awkward. It felt comfortable, like all those days we spent laying on his bed. After a few minutes of driving he finally broke the silence.
"So, what made you decide to become a stylist?" He asked.
"I don't know. It was a way of putting my style out there, while still putting each individual personality of whoever I was working with. I've always loved working with clothes, I just didn't want to run my own fashion company. I knew I wouldn't be able to with a daughter to look after. What about you? What made you want to start a band and post videos on YouTube?" I asked. He smile slightly, turning his head to look at me, then the road.
"You. I wanted to somehow tell you I still loved you. So I talked to Calum and he talked to Michael. At first it was just to see if we could actually sound good together. We got a small fan group very quickly, and when we did our first gig we needed a drummer. That's when Ashton can into the picture. When we were writing our songs, I just kept thinking about how I felt when we met, when we first got together, when we first said 'I love you', and when you left. You were my inspiration to keep going because I knew that we would meet again. I just didn't have the beautiful daughter in the picture, but she's an added bonus," He said, pulling into the parking lot of a diner. I smiled because he remembered I hated fancy restaurants.
"You remembered?" I asked, still in shock.
"Yeah I did. I also remember you don't like getting spoiled but you also secretly love it. I remember that you can't eat any pork because of your religion. I remember when I first saw you, and you looked like you wanted to kill your parents for making you spend your summer down in Australia instead of Bradford with your friends, even though we both know you would have been up in your room drawing the entire time," He smirked, grabbing my hand, and leading me inside. We sat down in a both at the back, hoping to not draw to much attention to us. The waitress came over, and got our orders with the slight fangirling. I could tell she wanted to ask Luke for a picture, but she composed herself, and kept herself in check.
"I can't believe you remember all of that. I remember how much I hated my parents for making me go to Bradford. I didn't want to leave you. I was hoping for a way I could see you again. My friend Niall was the reason I knew of your band. He has been following you since your cover of Teenage Dirtbag. Then he got mad because I knew a member of his favorite band, but I didn't keep in touch. I was kind of mad at myself for that too. But I gave up after you stopped answering my calls," I said, looking down slowly. I felt a finger hold up my chin so I was looking into Luke's eyes.
"It was my fault we lost touch. I'm sorry. If I knew about the situation, I would have found a way to fly out to see you, and to be with through all those months," He said. I nodded knowing he was telling the truth just by looking in his eyes. Then he did something I've wanted him to since we first saw each other a few months ago. He kissed me. It still gave me those butterflies like when we were together in Australia. He pulled back, and I couldn't help the smile that was on my face. "You're so beautiful when you smile like that. Never stop," He said. Our food soon arrived, and we began eating. We talked about how life has been for the past couple of years, and how we managed to stay out of relationships completely. I still found it funny that he turned down every girl that threw themselves at him.
We soon left, and walked to the park that was just down the street. It was silent, yet comforting. We stopped when we got to a bench, and we sat down, enjoying the quietness of the park. He grabbed my hand in his, and rubbed it slightly with the back of his thumb. I smiled, laying my head on his shoulder, loving the closeness we still had. I could tell he was nervous, but I didn't want to push him into something he didn't want. He soon ended the silence, and stood in front of me.
"I know you probably still don't fully trust me, but I've wanted you back since I saw you that day we saw each other in the office. I want to be back in yours and Peighton's life. I know she hates me, but I want to try to be a dad, and a good boyfriend to you. Please, Zee. Will you please be mine again?"
