Chapter 22: Introducing my boyfriend(Zayn)

So finally everything's alright and Mia's cooled down. The lads have gone home but not before the burst out laughing at Mia's reaction. First she was a fiery as a lioness and the next as pliant as a kitten. Sometimes I couldn't understand that girl. When the lads and I were back at home in my room, mainly doing nothing we started laughing.

That was so awkward,"Niall declares. I mean like one second, Mia was throwing books at you and the next second she's in you arms, crying,"

I know right?"Liam says. I swear that girl is just plain feisty, funny and so unexpected,"

Can say I blame her for hitting Zayn,"Harry says laughing. I would have threw bricks at my best friend if he did that to me,"

I don't know about you guys but I know I just laughed my arse off,"Louis says.

The lads left the next day and Mia promised she would visit them before they left. The lads made the both of us promise we would visit before we left again for our tour.

I snap out of my thoughts and head to Mia's house. She told me we could go out do something today and couldn't wait too. I was still debating whether I should tell Mia about my feelings and I wanted too. I was sure of myself this time and I wanted to tell her. I run up the steps and walk straight into her house without knocking(the door was not locked) and I see Mia and a familiar looking guy leaning down to her.

Ahem,"I clear my throat and they see me and pull back.

Er, hey Zayn,"Mia says, looking sheepish.

Hey Mia,"I tell her tersely. Who's this?"

Leo,"The guy says and holds his hand out to me. I don't take it, instead I feigned a smile.

Er, hello,"I tell him. So what are you doing here?"

Oh I'm just down to see Mia before I move back to London today,"he says.

Oh,"I say and nod. So how do you know Mia?"

Er I met her at school and then back at New York and we started dating,"he says with a triumphant smile. Mia gives me a funny look. I feel like my heart has dropped down to the floor. Stupid, stupid me.

Oh,"I say and give Mia a look.

Well, I, er, gotta go Mia,"Leo says finally. I'll call you okay? And when will you go back to New York?"

Er, I don't know,"Mia shrugs and a light bulb lights up in my head.

I am bloody smart,"I think to myself. After that Leo leaves, I stood next to Mia and smiled.

Mia?"I ask slowly.

Yeah, Zayn?"she says as equally slow.

I was wondering if you'd like to come with us boys on tour to New York,"I start. I can pay for your flight ticket because I just want to spend time with you,"

Well, I would love to come with you boys,"Mia starts. But I don't want you to pay for my ticket,"she continues firmly.

Why not?"I ask and frown.

You're my best friend and I don't want you to spend money on me when I can get the ticket myself, thank you very much,"Mia says with a smile. Is Eleanor and Danielle coming along to?"

Yeah,"I lie. I was sure they weren't coming but I'll get Louis and Liam to get them to come. Anything to get Mia away from that daft idiot.

Well okay,"Mia says thoughtfully after a while. I'll come but only if I can pay for my own boarding, entertainment and more,"

What?"I protest. No can do. I'm asking you so I should pay,"

Then I'm not coming,"Mia says in a very simple tone.

I look at her and I know this is one of the things that's made me fall for her. Even now when I had money, she refused to let me pay for anything concerning the both of us.

Fine then,"I say quickly.

Great, so when will you guys leave for New York?"she asks.

In a week or two,"I tell her. We'll spend a month in New York and then its heading to Australia for us,"

Okay then I'd better book my flight tickets,"Mia says, thinking hard.

There's no need for that,"I tell Mia. We're flying via private jet,"

Wow, really?"Mia asks, looking impressed.

Course,"I tell her. We're loaded,"

She laughs. Zayn why haven't you shaved your stubble?"she asks curiously.

I think it looks sexy on me, don't you think?"I say.

No it doesn't. You look daft,"Mia jokes.

I do?"I say and then lunge to tickle her at her weak spot.

Zayn!"Mia yells laughing.

What were you saying about my stubble again?"I ask her.

It looks so sexy,"Mia says finally. Just stop tickling me,"

I let her up and she stuck her tongue out.
