Chapter 2...

“Rikki…Rikki come on, open up, pplleeaasseee,” Ariel begged from the other side of my door. I lay on my bed looking at my posters. I couldn’t BELIEVE I had done that. I knew it would be a surreal moment if I ever meet him. But I never thought I would be such an IDIOT and look like one too. I slammed my face into the pillow and screamed. Ariel knocked on my door again.

“Rikki, PLEASE, come on, I look so stupid out here, knocking on your door,” She whined. I sighed and got up and opened my door, walked back to my bed and laid down.

“Yeah, well you didn’t gape at a guy you have had a crush on for like EVER and make yourself look like a total IDTIOT,” I said sighing. She sat on my bed and looked at me.

“Yeah well, when you turned and left, they ALL looked at me,” I looked at her.

“All five?” She nodded.

“All five,” I kept looking at her then burst out laughing. She smiled and hit me.

“Shut up, you know what; Zayn asked me if you were ok, you wanna know what I said?” She said looking at me, humor in her eyes, “ ‘ummm….uh, your just hot,’ and I left, that’s more stupid then what you did, and you made me do it,” I couldn’t help it. I burst out in a fit of laughs. I grabbed my stomach and rolled onto my side. She smiled and hit me with my pillow. I kept laughing and blocked myself from her blows. Finally I sat up, still giggling.

“Ok, that’s worse, I have to admit,” I said getting up. She nodded and got up as well.

“That’s why you’re going to go find him and say sorry,” I turned to her.

“WHAT, no WAY,” I screamed. She covered my mouth and shook her head.

“SHUT UP,” she whispered. I frowned at her. She looked around the room and then back at me, half smiling.

“He’s in the same hallway,” My eyes widened. I took her hand off my mouth and fell back onto my bad.

“This is just great, PERFECT, my life is only getting BETTER AND BETTER,” I said into my pillow. She sat down on my bed and patted my back.

“Come on, you love this boy, go tell him you where over taken by shock and love and you just couldn’t help yourself but stare at this god in front of you,” I took my pillow and chucked it at her head. She burst into giggles and fell off my bed. I started laughing and sighed.

“Should I really go talk to him?” I asked looking at the posters. She hit my back and squealed.

“YES OH MY GOD YES, GO, your totally in love with him, he’s super sweet AND he asked if you were ok, I think that deserves a proper hi, don’t you,” She said pushing me out the door. I was in the hall now. She stood in the doorway smiling at me. I sighed and walked down the hallway. I was going to make another fool of myself. I just knew it. I looked around me and turned the corner and ran straight into someone. I fell back onto my butt and so did they. I slapped my head and opened my eyes.

“I’m so…..” yeah you guessed it. It was Zayn. He smiled at me and I smiled back. Embarrassed. I got up and looked at him. I put my hand out and he grabbed it. A shock of electricity shot through my hand. I bite my lip and he stood up.

“We should really stop meeting in such weird ways,” I said. He laughed lightly and nodded.

“Yeah, then we could have conversations together, not your friend saying I’m hot,” his accent rung in my ears and I couldn’t help but squeal like a little girl inside. I laughed and nodded, putting hair behind my ear.

“Sorry about that, I just never thought…”

“You’d see me here, yeah I’m getting that a lot today,” His accent was amazing. I couldn’t believe I was standing here having a conversation with Zayn Malik, of One Direction. I rocked back and forth on my heels. He watched me and smiled. I smiled back. Oh my GOSH, his smile made me weak in the knees.

“Sorry, I don’t know what to say to you now,” I said laughing lightly. He nodded.

“Me either,” I looked up at him. He cleared his throat.

“I mean, now that I know you’re ok, I don’t know what to say,” I nodded and put my hands in my pockets and looked around.

“So are any of the others going here?” I asked. He shook his head.

“Nah, I just came here to get education, you know, just in case,” I nodded.

“I totally understand,” He smiled his perfect smile and pulled out his phone.

“I have to get going, their waiting for me downstairs,” I nodded and moved out of his way. He grabbed my hand and shook it. Looking me in the eyes.

“It was great meeting you….” He stopped. Right I never told him my name. I mentally slapped myself.

“Rikki,” he smiled.

“Rikki, it was nice meeting you, I’ll see you around sometime?” I nodded and he smiled and walked away. Slowly slipping his hand from mine. I held back a sigh as he walked away. Damn he was perfect. Something crinkled in my hand. I opened it. A piece of paper was there. I pulled it open and gasped. He had written his number down with under it “Call me, text me, just talk to me” I smiled and turned back to my room. Ariel sat on my bed. I closed my door and leaned against it. She got up and walked over to me.

“Sooo,” She said smiling. I smiled and held out my hand. She took the paper and her mouth gaped open. I nodded and clapped my hands. She looked at me.

“No WAY,’ I nodded.

“Can you believe it!!” I squealed. She squealed with me and wrapped her arms around me, hugging me tightly.

“Who is the best friend in the WORLD for making you go take to him?!” I laughed and hugged her back.

“YOU ARE!” She pulled back and grabbed my phone and put his number in, then gave me my phone. I took it and looked at her. She smiled.

“Text him,” I shook my head and threw my phone on my bed.

“No, he just went to hang out with his friends, I’m not going to interrupt him,” She sighed and laid on my bed.

“Why do you have to be so nice,” She asked looking at my ceiling.

“Because, “I said leaning over her, “there has to be a balance,” She looked at me then gaped at me and hit my head. I laughed and rubbed it, acting like it hurt. She laughed and stood up and went through my clothes. I looked at her.

“What are you doing?”

“Well, once you two start hanging out more, he’s going to ask you out, so I’m getting you outfit ready,” She said throwing a blue dress onto my bed. I grabbed it and put it back. She looked at me.

“He’s not going to ask me out Ariel, and if he does, it’s going to be a long time before that happens, you don’t need to do it now,” She sighed and grabbed her bag.

“Fine, but when he does, I’m the first person you’re calling, ok,” I nodded and she left my room. I sat on my bed, looking at me phone. I picked it up, put his number in and said something.

“Hey, it’s me, if you even know who me is,” he replied quickly and I smiled at what he said.

“How could I not know who me is, when she’s been on my mind all day,” I smiled and lay back on my bed. Ok maybe he was going to ask me out sooner than I thought. Or hoped at least.
