How To Seduce

6. Are You Zayn's Girlfriend?

 <<Lea, Lea…>> I hear a muffled voice and feel a hand on my hip, gently shaking me awake.

I mumble something uncomprehensible under my breath and drown the world covering my head with a pillow, hoping to be able to go back to sleep undisturbed.

<<Lea, please, wake up!…>> I slowly peek through one eye to see Zayn smiling while holding up the cushion.

<<Why did you wake me up? On a Saturday morning too!>> I huff, rubbing my eyes, probably smudging the black mascara from the previous night.

<<Le, it’s past eleven.>> he smirks. Bloody hell.

I suddenly pull up into a sitting position, feeling my head go dizzy from the abrupt movement, and put a hand to my spinning head.

<<Oh so now you hurry!>> he laughs, dropping the pillow into my lap and awkwardly patting my knee.

<<Mh, so I have a favor to ask…>> he pauses, picking up a strand of my dark hair to play with it.

After a couple of moments of silence I look up into his eyes pushing him on.

He takes a deep breath, closes his eyes interrupting our connection and opens them again staring intensely into mine.

<<I have to go back home, to visit my mom and family.>>

I nod in understanding, of course I would have missed him with the empty flat in my hands but it was no problem, nothing I wasn’t sure I could take care of.

<<So, would you come with me?>> he asks.

I feel my whole body go tense, that’s not what I expected, that definitely wasn’t even close.

<<At your house?>> Nod.

<<With you?>> Nod.

<<Today?>> Nod.

<<And your family will be there?>> Nod with a small smile.

<<And when would we be leaving?>> I ask, not entirely sure whether I had just accepted or not.

<<That’s why I woke you up: just about now, as soon as you’re ready we’re off, mum’s making us lunch.>> he smiles.

I nod with a small smile. <<Well, I’ll go get dressed then.>> I leave his room to walk into mine, nervous for no apparent reason.

After wearing a warm cozy dress and my uggs, me and Zayn left the apartment and got into his car, ready for the ride to his house.

<<It’s not very far, about a quarter of an hour drive and we’ll be there.>> he gives me a smile before starting the car and heading up the road.

The radio fills the silence in the car, while I torture my hands on the hem of the dress uneasily.

<<Zayn?>>

<<Yeah?>>

I notice him looking at me out of the corner of his eye.

<<Don’t you have to work today?>> I ask.

He shakes his head, halting at the stop sign and looking left and right before restarting the car and answering me.
