Love At First Hate

Chapter 40 ~ PROM; part 2

*Lauren's POV*

I took a deep breathe and looked at the door. When I was small I would always say to myself that I would never make it to prom. But here I am, with my bestest friends behind me and better yet. With the most charming person holding my hand beside me.

"Ready?" He asked and I nodded since it was too good to be true.

He pushed open the door and we walked in through the front door. Everyone here was dancing and some stared at us with smiles. The only thing keeping me from falling down was his arms because it was such a beautiful moment.

"Picture?" Some photographer asked. I looked up at Zayn and we both nodded.

"Make sure to smile you two." I felt his hands on my waist and we both smiled at the camera. "You can pick up your pictures at the end of the dance or anytime, we're at that booth over there." Zayn muttered a quick 'thanks.'

"It's so beautiful in here." I quietly said, staring at the roof where stars were hung.

"True, but I prefer to look at someone that is more beautiful than the real stars and moon combined." Zayn smiled which made me blush madly.

But before I could say something back we were interrupted by someone calling our names.

"Zayn, Lauren," it was Logan and he wasn't alone. He was hand in hand with such a flawless girl whose brown hair was curled. "Congradulations." He winked at Zayn and then presented us his date.

"This is Claire, my uh girlfriend." So this was Claire. I wasn't even mad, the past wasn't in my mind and I extended a hand towards her. "I'm Lauren."

"Your eyes are so gorgeous probably better than Logan's." I laughed and Logan glared at her playfully.

"I see how it is. Zayn care for a dance?" Logan asked and it made us all laugh.

"Okay see you around guys. Have fun." With that Logan and Claire walked away. They were such a good couple to be honest.

"ZAUREN!" I looked at Camila waving her arms from a table not so far. "And they're back at that ship name." I said.

"I find it rather cute." Zayn shrugged and we made our way to the rectangular table.

"We need you guys to take care of the table, Harry and I are going to serve ourselves food. And we don't want peeps to take it, it's like close to the dance floor and yeah." Camila explained as Harry stood up.

"Sure, bring me some punch please?" Camz nodded and they made their way to the food table.

Zayn and I sat down next to each other and I didn't know what to say. Its like every time I'm close to him, I am not able to use my words all I can do is be silent. Words aren't good enough to describe my feelings.

"What did you think when the limo pulled up at your house?" Zayn asked.

"I don't know, I was kinda scared because I thought my dad would kill you, I'm his 'little' eighteen year old girl." I chuckled.

"Well, now I can call him Mike. So he likes me." Zayn said proudly. I looked at the people dancing to... what song is this? I don't know but I am quite sure it's Beyonce. Yep, definitely Beyonce I can see Dinah and Normani smiling like the Cheshire cat from here.

"Do you wanna kiss?" My eyes widened and I aware my cheeks flushed with the brightest shade of red. Ohmygod. "What?" I turned to look at Zayn who was smirking.

"A kiss," and then my eyes darted to the silver wrapped chocolate he held with two fingers.

I swallowed and nervously took the chocolate from his hand, popping it into my mouth. When I looked back at Zayn he was laughing to himself.
