Changes

Chapter 28

Zayns POV

Thursday

I was driving home after dropping Leah off to her car. The rain was pounding onto the windshield, but it didn't phase me. I kept picturing the look on her face when leaned in to kiss her. She had, to my excitement, kissed me back.

Pulling up to my house I rushed inside in my already soaking wet clothes. Closing the door and taking my shoes off I walked into the kitchen and saw my mom cooking. She turned around and glared at me.

"why are you in soaking wet clothes? You're getting the floor wet and you are going to get yourself sick"

I mumbled a sorry as I ran up the stairs to change into warm clothes. Changing into a pair of warm sweatpants and a sweatshirt I went back downstairs.

Going into our TV room I saw my youngest sister Safaa watching a show. Laying down on the couch and putting my hood up I closed my eyes to relax.

"Oh Zayn you're back! How was your date?" my older sister Doniya asked

Opening my eyes I saw her standing over me. I sat up as she jumped next to me, egger to hear what I had to say.

I explained to her about our picnic and our games of football. And then I couldn’t help but grin as I told her about how the date ended.

When I was finished telling the story I felt her whack my arm “I can’t believe you left the poor girl in her car after you went up to her and kissed her by surprise!”

Before I could get a word out I heard Safaa yell “Eww you were kissing someone! That’s gross”

I let out a light laugh, remembering how I use to think that.

I turned back to Doniya “Well Leah seemed to enjoy it”

…

I had texted Leah later that night and waited for a response. When I saw what she texted me I excused myself from the room and called her.

“That was fast” she said when she answered the phone.

I couldn’t help myself, I was excited she was coming down. “Sorry, I just wasn’t expecting that. Are you really coming?”

She explained that she was going to stay at Louis and Harry’s but she was also visiting a friend of hers.

That’s when I made my decision to go back on Saturday instead of Sunday. More time with Leah.

We chatted for a little bit. I promised to text her when I was coming. Before I ended with my line from earlier, “Take Care”.

…

Later the next day I was sitting in my room when Doniya came in. She suggested that we go out for a little and see some of our friends. Since we were only a year apart, we hung out with a lot of the same people.

I got change and sent Leah a few quick texts then went out to go meet my friends.

When I was with my friends, all I could think about was getting to London and seeing her again. That was until one of my ex’s showed up. Whenever I was in town she always came and found me. Her name was Brie. She was my age, we were in the same grade at school. We had dated for a year before we broke up, when I had found her cheating on me.

Normally seeing Brie made me go into a bad mood, but I ignored her. Instead o thinking about the girl in my past, I thought of Leah, the girl who would hopefully be in my future.

Doniya had sensed my ucomfortableness around Brie, it usually got like that when we were around her because all she tried to do was flirt with me. This girl could not take a hint if it was handed to her. So we said our goodbyes to our friends and went back home for dinner.
