You Belong With Me (Zayn Malik)

Sooo, this is a new start. I'm sorry if it's weird because I've been gone and stop writing because an unknown reason that I still seem can't to find it.

And again, I'm sorry for not updating this story, YOUR story for SO LONG. You can blame me. But with school, and life, and another unknown reason made me stop writing.

This is a request from Babyswifties. Hope you enjoy it!

I hate seeing him like this.

"Pearl, come on. I was just with you, and we were just walking down the street." Ia menghembuskan nafas berat. "She's my bestfriend, okay?" Right. I was just his bestfriend.

"Pearl, Indi is my bestfriend. Ever since we spent time together, I barely saw her, I barely had time with her, I barely talked to her. And now I want to spent time with her. I needed to spent time with her." Zayn membawa jemarinya mengacak-acak rambutnya yang sudah mulai memanjang. Apapun yang Pearl katakan di seberang sana, it's definitely not good. It was never good.

God, why did you give her answers and explanation when she didn't even want to understand it, Zayn?

"Sorry 'bout that. Pearl memintaku kembali.. Um, menemaninya." Aku tersenyum dan mengangguk, mencoba memberinya pengertian. Pengertian yang selalu kuberikan selama 10 tahun belakangan ini. "I'm fine. You should go to her."

"Are you sure you're okay? Because we were just met like about 5 seconds." I laughed at him. "Go get her, you dork." He smiled at me. "It's glad to see you laugh again, Indi. I miss you like hell." Believe me, I was about to cry when he hugged me.

"I'll see you later. Bye."

And so did I.

"Serena, jika aku dapat bertukar kehidupan dengan Pearl untuk satu jam saja, aku tidak akan melakukan apa yang ia lakukan." Serena is my only friend in school. Well, other than Zayn who's got his popularity above him.

"What do you mean you wouldn't did what she did?" Tanyanya. "I'm saying, that.. Kika aku mempunyai kekasih, aku tidak akan memaksanya untuk terus bersamaku. I mean, he has life, parents, friends, pets, homeworks, imagine if you were stuck with someone 24/7?" I snapped.

"Indi you were jealous." Ujar Serena di balik telpon. "Tell me about it." Kataku. Dan oh, jangan lupakan nada sarkastik di dalamnya. "C'mon, there's no time to sass me, smartass. Kau harus mengatakan hal ini padanya, Indi. At least let him know." Aku tertawa. "Serena, believe me, the last thing I want to do is confessing to him about my feeling right in front of his door."

"Then so be it!" Serena selalu bertingkah seperti ini. Ini bukan kali pertama kami untuk berdebat tentang hal ini. "Serena, kau tau apa yang akan terjadi jika aku mengatakan padanya apa yang kurasakan. It changes everything." Aku menghembuskan nafas berat.

"Indi, kapan kau akan melupakan kebahagiaan orang lain dan memikirkan kebahagiaanmu untuk sekali dalam hidup?" Tanya Serena. "It's called selfish, Serena." Jawabku. "Yeah, but it's Pearl Tyree that we're talking about, Indi. She's more selfish and evil than Lucifer." Instead of arguing, aku menertawakan kalimat terakhirnya. Yang kemudian di ikuti gelak tawa Serena sendiri.

Sudah dua minggu sejak Zayn menemuiku kembali, dan meninggalkanku setelah lima detik kami bertemu.

He's right. I barely saw him. I barely had time with him. I barely talked to him.

I miss him.

I love him.

"Hey." Aku tersenyum saat ibuku menghampiriku di kamarku. "Hey, mum." Ia menjalankan tangannya untuk mengusap rambutku dengan lembut. "Ada Zayn di bawah. And.. I hate to say this but.. He looked like a mess."

Dengan terburu-buru aku menuruni tangga dan mendapati Zayn di depan pintu rumahku.. Dengan sebuah botol whiskey di tangannya.

"Oh my God." Aku sedikit membungkuk untuk membantu Zayn berdiri. "Zayn, come on. We better get you inside." Aku—dengan bantuan ibuku—memapah Zayn yang tidak lama, ia ambruk tepat di sofa. Ia terlihat kacau—tidak, ia memang kacau.

Dan kalimat terakhirku baru saja membuat sebuah pertanyaan retoris—untuk saat ini. "What did she do to you, Zayn?"

So, technically I was watching him all night, in case he's waking up and confused. And being up all night was the part of I was watching him all night.

"Ugh, Indi?" And finally. "Hi." Aku tersenyum. "How are you feeling?" Tanyaku. "Bad headache." I chuckled. "Here, I've got painkillers for you." Ia meminumnya dengan segera.

"Jadi, ada apa? Why'd you start drinking again?" Tanyaku. And that's when he started sobbing. "Hey, hey, hey. It's okay. I was just asking, it's your choice not to answer." Aku tersenyum menatapnya. "Why'd you have to be so damn cute, Indi?" I'm pretty sure my ears are still working and Zayn just said that?

No, he doesn't. He has Pearl. If he says anything about beautiful or cute or any other compliment about how pretty a girl is, it's got to be Pearl.

"I still can't believe I could drove here safely. I'm sorry. And thank you for taking care of me." Aku terkekeh. "Even if you got yourself a wrong door." Kami tertawa bersamaan. "But it's okay. And you're welcome." Aku tersenyum.

"Indi, I'm sorry. We've been so distant lately. I shouldn't have. But I was just so in love with Pearl, and I thought this could work and—" did he say was? "Did you just say was?" Tanyaku.

"I broke up with her, Indi." He's crying. "I loved her, and she didn't." Katanya. "Zayn.. She don't deserve your tears. Not one bit of your hair." I hugged him.

It was a nice feeling. A comfortable feeling. It's like I can feel that he needs me. He need me to be here just like he used to be here when I needed him to. Which is why I'm here.

Because he belongs to me.

And that was the start. I'm sorry I'm using English too much. And correct me if I'm wrong. I've watched way too much western movies, I've read so many English books, it's just feel wierd to wrote in Bahasa after that.

I'm trying to wrote normal again and I'm obviously still learning, though.

By the way, hope you liked it!
