Pretend
It's Love
~Chapter
5~
My phone vibrates at like three in the
morning, I check it, thinking it's someone important.
It's an unknown number. I think about it but decide why not?
And answer. "Hello?" I say sleepily. "Did I wake
you up?" Instantly I know who it is, "Well, it's
three in the morning, so yes," I giggle. "Do you think
I could come over?" Harry asks. I get butterflies in my
stomach. "Ofcourse," I flirt. "I'll be over in
a few minutes." Then we hang up. I stay in my pajamas, not
wanting to look like I'm trying too hard. I brush my teeth
and redo my make up, that.. It's just a must. A knock on the
door sends me running downstairs. Harry walks in, looking not at
all in the I wanna hook up kind of way. But actually, quite
distressed.
"It's Zayn. He's really upset and no one knows why.
He won't talk to anyone, not even Perrie." He says
quickly. "And I'm supposed to do what..?" I ask,
kind of disappointed. "Well. He kind of agreed to come..
only if he could talk to you." Harry says slowly, trying not
to upset me. "You're kidding." I saw with no
emotion. Behind him, I see a desperate Zayn walk through the
door, trying hard to make eye contact with me. "Leave,"
I tell Harry, sitting on the couch. He leaves, leaving Zayn and I
alone. "Well?" I whisper. "You said it meant
nothing to you, did you mean it?" He whispers. Without
thinking, I nod once. "Then why can't you look at
me?" He asks, sitting down beside me. I turn my head farther
away and try to think up an answer. "If it meant nothing,
why can't you answer my question?" He pushes the
subject. "If it meant nothing, why are you ignoring
me?" He asks. Finally, I break. "Because I did feel a
little of something Zayn! But I know better!" I shout,
putting my face in my hands. "Better than what?" He
whispers.
"I'm not stupid enough to date you! You're just like
Ryan, the whole world watches your moves, I won't be good
enough and your image won't be able to take it!" I
finally break and explain.
"How would having a beautiful girl like you as my own ruin
my image?" He asks, licking his lips while staring at mine.
Then he kisses me, I pull away. "Because you already have a
girlfriend, Zayn," I say quietly. Before I know it, he's
kissing me again.
But this time, I don't even try to stop it.
"Oh my God," I whisper, when I wake up with Zayns armed
draped around my waist. I stir him awake. "What did we
do?" I whisper. He smiles, "Nothing but sleep,
love," He kisses my nose lightly. "That's great.
Except that there are probably a million people who know
you're here and that you spent the night." I snap. I
stand up, throwing the bed covers off. I stare at Zayns shirtless
body and melt. I command myself to look away. "You should
leave," I mumble. "I really shouldn't," He
protests. "Why?" I ask him. He stands up and walks over
so that our chests are almost touching. "Because you
don't want me to, and I don't want to leave you," He
whispers before kissing me again.
I turn on the TV. A One Direction interview is on, since Veronica
isn't home, and hasn't been since she's staying at
her Mom's house for a couple of weeks, I decide it's okay
to leave it on. "So, let's do a little guy talk,"
The male host winks. The boys laugh. "Any girlfriends?"
He asks. "Zayn?" He makes his question more direct.
"Yeah," He smiles. For a second, I actually think
he's going to say my name.
"Her name's Perrie, she's lovely," He smiles.
"But I heard you spent the night at a certain.. lady
friend's house last night," The host presses for more
information. Zayn shrugs, "She's a friend. A very good
friend," He says, staring straight into the camera as if to
send me a message.
Well yeah, Zayn. I got it.
