I sat in my room after school with my laptop rested on my lap, attempting to Skype Justin. No answer. I groaned in frustration and pressed the retry button hoping this time for an answer.
After still not getting an answer I sighed and shut my laptop, sliding it under the bed and laying on my back looking at the ceiling. I miss him so much and now he isn’t even picking up my Skype calls… He never misses my Skype calls!
I slid off my bed and slipped my shoes on, fixing my hair in the mirror and grabbing my skateboard I shoved my cigarettes into my pocket then I was off, leaving my house and skating off into the darkness. The yellow streetlights being the only thing illuminating my path…
I ollied over a speed bump and came to an abrupt stop outside the park, I got off my skateboard and picked it up, stopping to put a cigarette into my mouth and shield it with my hand to light it as the night wind flapped my shirt.
After I finally succeeded in lighting it I strolled into the park and began walking towards the tree in the back right corner of the park’s pathway.
I took the cigarette out of my mouth to blow the smoke out then replaced it between my lips and keep walking, the silence surrounding me only being broken by my footsteps on the smooth concrete pathway.
I finally reached the tree and blew some smoke out of my nose before placing my foot on the truck for support and grabbing the branches I was about to push myself off the ground when I heard a rustle of leaves behind me then a twig snap.
It’s probably just a rabbit. I shrugged it off and was about to climb when a low, whisper of a voice came from behind me.
“You know that’s bad for you, right?” I froze and gasped as I span around to see Zayn leant against the tree a few feet away from the one I was about to climb, the cigarette fell from my lips onto the muddy ground of the forest and I stamped it out in a hurry, looking up at Zayn.
“Why are you here?” I asked and looked around at the otherwise empty park. He shrugged.
“I come here a lot.” He stated. I narrowed my eyes and pushed some hair out of my face.
“How come I’ve never seen you then?” He shrugged again.
“I come late at night… And I know when you come because usually I’m…” He turns and points to a tree in the middle of the cluster surrounding the edge of the park.
“Up there.” He smirked and my jaw dropped in disbelief. How could I have not noticed him?!
I nodded and cleared my throat before opening my mouth to speak but no words came out.
“What?” Asked Zayn and I sighed.
“Why did you come over here?” I asked and he licked his lips so they glistened in the dim lights in the park, my eyes fixed on his perfect pink lips as he parted them to speak.
“I wanted to say thank you.” He answered and I frowned, tearing my eyes away from his lips to look at his eyes that instantly made my knees weak.
“For what?” I replied, tilting my head to the side in confusion.
“For taking the blame for the whole bleachers thing.” He mumbled and I shook my head dismissively.
“No biggie.” I shrugged and he leaned forward so his warm breath tickled my nose, I took a step back but stopped when I felt the tree trunk press against my back. He took a step towards me with his hand rested on the tree at the side of my head.
“I want to show you how grateful I am.” He whispered and my knees felt weak again, my mouth going dry and my eyes staying locked with his.
“You don’t have to…” I breathed and his chocolate brown orbs shot between my lips and my eyes.
“But I want to…” He said before leaning in and connecting his soft lips with mine. I froze for a second before letting myself melt into the kiss and kissed him back, wrapping my arms around his neck as he leaned against me firmly.
He rested his other hand on my hip and pulled my lower half against his as his smooth tongue slipped between my lips and slid across my own. I groaned softly and allowed his tongue to explore my mouth as I involuntarily pressed my lower half harder against his.
He eventually pulled away and just looked at me, out of breath and licking my lips I stared back at him as he smiled then pecked my lips again and stood back away from me.
I stood flustered and fixed my hair then trailed my eyes down to the ground as I heard him sigh then walk back over to me. I felt two strong and rough fingers press against my chin as he gently tilted my head up to look into his eyes.
“Now Darren… I don’t suggest you climb trees at this hour… I’ll give you a lift home…” He breathed before standing back and taking my hand without giving me time to respond he began walking back towards the park gates. His warm hand squeezed tightly around my own I followed him in silence towards his car.
We got into his car and he started it up then pulled out of the car park and turned sharply as he slammed down on the accelerator and sped off towards my house.

The car drive there was silent. But not an awkward silence, just a silence. When he stopped outside my house I turned to face him and was about to thank him when my body disobeyed me and I ended up grabbing the sides of his face and pulling it to mine, smashing my lips against his before my brain had time to process.
I pulled away and he smiled before pressing the door unlock button and as I was getting out of the car I felt his warm hand clamp around my wrist. I turned to speak to him and he smirked at me from the drivers seat of his car.
“Goodnight Darren.” He mumbled and I smiled before replying.
“Sleep well Zayn.” He let go of my wrist and I walked up the path to my house and ran around the back, scaling the fence to get in then climbing up the tree in the backyard to slip over onto my windowsill and climb through the open window.
Being careful I didn’t slip as to not wake my mom I climbed through the window and jumped lightly onto the floor. Only to knock over a pile of conveniently placed school books that landed onto my polished wood floor with a loud crash. I heard a groan from my mom’s room and I panicked. Oh shit.
I flung myself at my bed, whacking my knee on my bedside table in the process I threw the covers over my still clothed body and curled up into a ball as I cradled my knee to my chest and bit my lip to suppress a yell of pain as the door opened and my room flooded with light.
My mom came in and looked around, picking up the books and setting them to the side before I heard some shuffling around then the door close.
I peeked up from below my covers and let out a sigh of relief, snuggling into my pillow and squeezing my eyes shut…

I woke up the next morning and tumbled out of bed. It was Saturday so I showered and walked downstairs, getting some toast and a glass of water.
After breakfast I decided to go out and just skate by myself for a bit so I grabbed my skateboard and ran outside.
I hopped onto my board and set off through the neighbourhood, jumping up curbs and weaving between bins with my headphones in blasting My Chemical Romance.
As I was skating suddenly a Great Dane puppy ran out of nowhere and into the middle of my path. Holy shit! In a hurry I swerved around it only to collide with a raised bit of pavement and flip off my board.
I landed on the concrete and whacked my head, black taking over instantly…
—
I woke up staring at a cream ceiling. Where the fuck am I? Sitting up I looked around trying to make sense of everything around me. My head throbbed in intense pain and my hand shot up to clutch at the area that was throbbing to feel… Bandage?
I heard a door open behind me then a voice.
Zayn walked in and grabbed a wheelie chair then sat down on it and smirked at me.
I looked around the room at all the posters and stuff and realised. I’m in Zayn’s room. And this is his bed…
I nodded slowly and continued to look around, Zayn must’ve noticed because he chuckled and leaned back in his chair.
“Yes. This is my room. And yes. It was my dog that caused you to crash and yes. You did pass out and yes. I did save you.” He said with a cocky grin as I refrained from rolling my eyes.
“Well… Thanks.” I croaked and struggled to swallow as my throat felt like it was bone dry.
Zayn got up and grabbed a glass of water from his desk and handed it from me. I took it gratefully then gulped it all down in a hurry.
He quirked an eyebrow and smiled with his eyes dancing with amusement. This time I did roll my eyes and sat back against the headboard as I looked around with my eyes finally falling on him.
He stared at me for a while before opening his mouth to speak. He then changed his mind and shut it again.
“What were you going to say?” I asked and he frowned, shaking his head.
“What?” He replied and I sighed, crossing my arms and rolling my eyes.
“You know fine rightly what. I want to know what you were about to say to me!” I demanded with an angry yet cute pout.
Zayn shook his head. “I wasn’t going to say anything.” He insisted but I scowled at him and rolled my eyes.
“Don’t lie to my Zayn. Tell me.” I ordered and smacked my fist down on the bed beside me for affect. Earning a roll of Zayn’s eyes and a chuckle.
“Nothing. I swear.” I shook my head and flailed my arms and legs in annoyance.
“I am not longer bullshitting Zayn. TELL ME!” I pleaded.
“No.” He said sternly.
“Please?” I asked hopefully.
“Nope.” He sang and I grumbled in irritation.
“Tellll meeeeee!” I begged and sat up on my knees, giving him my best puppy dog face with my face partially hidden by my bangs.
He shook his head and fell into a stubborn silence with his arms crossed so I sat back and started scrolling through my phone, sending him angry glances.
—
We sat in angry silence for a while until his dog came bounding into the room and leapt into my lap, licking my cheek and I grinned, hugging the large puppy with a grin.
“Date me.” I heard from Zayn’s place on the chair and my eyes snapped to look at him.
“What?” I whispered and he firmly nodded.
“You heard me. Date me.” He said again and I turned to face him. I opened my mouth to speak and then said the words that would change my life for good.
