"Sure love what is it?"

She seems tired and I wonder if this isn't the best time to be asking her if I can spend the summer in London with five boys in a famous band. It was too late now though because I'd already started talking and she wasn't gonna let it go at this point. Zayn comes over to stand next to me for moral support. I take a deep breath.

"Well Mum, you know Zayn's band, One Direction?" I ask.

"Well of course honey, why?" she replies.

"Umm so we were thinking," this is it there's no going back. The rest of my words come out at top speed. "Zayn is meeting the lads in London for the summer and he wanted me to come so I could meet them and everything. I swear I'll be responsible and not get in any trouble. What do you think? That okay?" I look up at her pleadingly.

She sighs and looks down at me.

"Oh I don't know love. I'm not a fan of the idea of you not having supervision all summer."

"Mum I promise to be responsible! And besides, I'm sure the lads are very well behaved. Right Z?"

I look over at Zayn and nudge him in the ribs.

"Oh. Sure, yeah. Very well behaved," he says half heatedly.

Mum doesn't say anything for a few minutes. Finally she speaks up.

"You swear nothing bad will happen? And you'll check in with me regularly?"

Was she being serious? She's really letting me do this?

I reply eagerly, "Yes, yes, yes! Oh Mum thank you so so so much! You have no idea how much this means."

"Oh your welcome sweetie," she says and pulls me in for a hug.

Zayn and I go back to my room.

"Soo, when do we leave?" I ask excitedly.

"Well I have to check with the lads but probably in early June." he replied.

"Ughhhh. That's like forever away!"

My face fell. I was too caught up in the idea of getting to leave that I didn't think about the fact that summer is a few months away still.

"Well it's not that bad Elle. It'll go by so fast you won't even notice. And hey, you've got me here now," he winked at me and sat down on my chair.

I laughed and jumped onto my bed. I flipped upside down to look for the bag of chips I had stashed under my bed earlier. When I found it a grabbed some to munch on then chucked the bag at Zayn. We eat in silence for a few minutes then Zayn looks up at me.

"What?" I ask suspiciously.

"Oh... Nothin," he replies with a smirk.

But I know him too well.

"Zaynie what are you hiding?

"Ugh. You got me." He says still smirking. "I know of somebody who fancies a certain someone," he winks discreetly.

"Zayn!" I throw a pillow at him starting to get a bit annoyed.

"Well I told the lads all about you and, don't get me wrong, they all think you sound awesome but Harry wouldn't stop asking me questions about you. I reckon he's got a bit of a crush already and he doesn't even know you." He explains grinning.

"Is that so..." I'm trying not to smile.

"Elena!"

I sit up on my bed and roll my eyes.

"Ugh. What Mum?!" I yell back at her.

"I need you to watch Hunter and Sam for a few hours. I'm going out with Derek. Oh and Zayn dear you're welcome to stay for dinner and Elle decides to make anything."

She's got to be kidding. She has gone out with Derek, her boyfriend, practically every other night since she met him three months ago. I roll my eyes and glance over at Zayn who nods that he'll stay.

"Alright Mum. Zayn and I will take care of it," I yell down the corridor.

"Thanks love. I'll be back late so if u could please get the boys in bed that would be wonderful. Love you."

Before I could object, she was out the door. I could hear Derek's car rumble down the bumpy driveway. Who knows when she'll be back.

"Well Z, we've got some kids to watch."

I walked over to Zayn and pulled him by his arm out to the living room where my brothers were playing with their superhero action figures. Zayn sat down with them and began entertaining them with his Hulk impersonation. They giggled hysterically and begged him to do it again. I plopped onto the couch and watched them admiring Zayn's patience and entertainment abilities that I know I'll never have.

"Hey Zayn? You wanna give me a hand with dinner?" I ask after they've been playing for a while.

I know neither of us are very handy in the kitchen but maybe together something edible will be made.

He looks up smiling from the "battle" he and Sam were having between Batman and the Joker.

"Sure!" He turns to Sam winking at him. "Good job dude but I think I won that last one."

He gets up and follows me to the kitchen. I look through the fridge and Zayn pulls random things out of cabinets.

We decide on heating up a can of tomato sauce and boiling some pasta.

After 30 or so minutes of messing around laughing and over cooking the pasta and burning the sauce, we set dishes on the table and call Hunter and Sam in.
