Baby Just Say Yes (A Zariana Story)

Chapter 38

So, how was everyone’s Thanksgiving? Good, that’s nice! Who went Black Friday shopping? Not me, I can’t deal with that. Sorry I haven’t been on, haven’t been on my laptop in a while since I’ve been using my brand new tablet, and I don’t like uploading through it. Well, here goes, new chapter!!

Chapter 38

Ariana’s POV

Sleeping that night was easier than I thought. Life is much simple now that Zayn is out of my mind. I don’t have to worry about all these bad things, and I have been uploading more covers to my YouTube channel. I do songs, thinking maybe I’ll get discovered that way, but nothing has happened, but I still keep trying.

I woke up that morning feel better than ever. Finally, no school. I’m getting real tired of people’s bullshit. Of course, I didn’t really wake up, Liz screamed in my ear telling me to wake up. I missed that, Perrie woke me up by singing old songs that no teen should know the words to.

“Ari, get up, it’s Saturday!” Liz yelled in my ear, jumping on my bed. I smiled. Even though Liz is loud as fudge, I didn’t mind. 

“Oh yes, Saturday. One of the two days we’re legally allowed to miss school.” I said. 

“Uh huh. Hurry, I’m hungry. I wanna get to breakfast and eat something. That Chinese buffet yesterday at lunch was not satisfying. The whole meal fit in one plate, and you couldn’t get more.” Liz began to complain. I nodded while putting on my pink and white polka-dot skirt. I swear, they only served us two grains of rice.

“So, how you feeling?” Liz asked, while spraying some perfume, and I had finished putting on my white blouse, and was putting my hair into a high ponytail.

“Good. I thought I would’ve had a dream about Zayn, but I didn’t. You know, I think I’m over him.” I told her. 

“That’s good, really good. OK, let’s go.” Liz said, and we walked out the door, our stomachs growling, begging for food.

“Hey guys!” I exclaimed when I saw all my friends sitting at our table, having a conversation. Me and Liz had gone through the line, and had our food, which including, waffles, orange juice (A/N hmm, what’s my obsession with orange juice? I feel like I’ve been mentioning it a lot.), and hash browns. 

“Hey little red.” Leon said.

“Someone seems awfully happily.” Daniella added.

 “Let’s just say I have reconsidered my feelings for some people.” I told them.

“As in, you’re done with Zayn?” Vic asked. I nodded.

“Wow, good for you.” Avan said.

“Does this mean Perrie will leave you alone?” Matt asked.

“It should. If she wants Zayn, she can have him. I’m not gonna give up on life just because of one guy. There are too many fish in the sea to miss one. Sure, I did like Zayn, but it wasn’t worth it.” I told them. They all nodded and smiled. They were happy for me, I thought. These are my real friends, they care about me.

“Well, how bout a toast to celebrate?” Liz offered. We all grabbed our glasses of multiple juices or milk, and clinked them together.

“To Ari and her happiness!” Matt said.

“To Ari and her happiness!” The rest said.

“To me and my happiness!” I said. We laughed, and began to take drinks. This is the best I have ever felt in a while. All my problems were gone. All I needed was help from my friends, and crying in the woods to realize I needed help from my friends.

I was having such a lovely breakfast. Victoria was talking about this time she played an extra in some TV show, and actually had a line, when Liz began to shudder.

“What’s wrong?” I whispered to her.

“I feel like someone watching us.” She said.

“Liz, don’t be ridiculous, no one is looking at us.” I whispered back.

“I promise you Ari, there is.” 

“Whatever.” I told her, and began listening again to Victoria’s story. 

I had forgotten all about Liz’s incident, but I was reminded when she accidently bumped me when she turned around. I decided to ignore her. She kept staring at who knows what, and whispered something in my ear.

“I told you Ari, someone WAS watching us. It was Zayn.” Zayn? What does he want now? 

“And? What did you do?” I asked her.

“Gave him my intimidating look.” She said.

“Was he?” 

“I don’t know, why don’t you give him one?”

I decided to do it, not because Liz told me to, but I wanted Zayn to understand that I was done with all this and him. I turned around, and there he was, staring back at me. Why, why don’t you understand, I wanted to yell at him. But I didn’t. I tried putting on my best intimidating look, but I don’t know, I felt like it looked like my constipated look. I guess I did a good job, because Zayn turned around.

“Doesn’t he understand we can’t be together?” I asked Liz once we had turned around.

“Clearly not. He still likes you, you know.” Was Liz’s response.

“Well, he needs to get over it. We will never be able to be together, and besides, he has Perrie, and Perrie is actually very pretty. He should be happy to have a pretty girl like her.” I said, while biting a piece of my waffles. 

“You’re pretty too. Sure, you may not have a British accent like hers, but American accents like yours are considered attractive here, so that makes you double beautiful.” I laughed. In British standards, I was probably the hottest girl here. 

“Than if I’m so pretty, I could date a guy who’s not Zayn.” I said, standing up to throw my tray away: me, Liz, and the rest of us were going to go down to the rec room, since we have nothing to do.

“True. As soon as we get to the rec room, you and your single butt are going to mingle, a guy is sure to fall for you and your red hair.” Liz said, opening the door for me. I laughed. What she was doing for me is really nice. She was me to be happy.

“Alright, will do.” For some reason, I don’t think I would do this. Even though I kept telling everyone and myself and everyone else I was over Zayn, a small part kept telling me I wasn’t.

I don’t think Ariana is over Zayn, don’t you? Anyway, I’m glad people like this story. I never know how to end these chapters. So, how many of you are Americans or people who don’t live in the UK who watch UK X Factor, I can’t be the only one who likes it better than US X Factor. Well, there are only 5 acts, and one of them is Union J, and if you don’t know who they are you better got to my Tumblr and follow me, cuz they have taken over my life.
