Through the Dark
Zayn Who?
That night I had a dream that William and I were at a fancy restaurant. He was looking very nice in a suit and tie. I was dressed up in a white puffy dress with a black veil on. We were eating a big cake with roses on it, the waiter was serving us wine when I hear a big crash. The bus boy must have dropped a whole stack of plates. Ignoring the noise I look at William with stars in my eyes when someone grabs his arm and throws him out of his chair. "Hey! Stop it!" I shout at the guy. He throws William on the floor and is now kicking him in the stomach. Will is grunting in pain trying to get up. Getting out of my seat and running to the guy I grab his arm and he pushes me to the floor. Seeing his angry face gives me the chills. It was Zayn, with hate in his eyes. He's about to beat William to death when I start to cry. He stops and comes over to me. Reaching for me I flinch in horror and put my head down. He scoops me up and
throws me over his shoulders and carries me out into the darkness..
"What?" rubbing my eyes I sit up and stretch "What a weird dream." yawning I get out of bed and start to get ready. "Hair, I'm sick of you doing your own thing." putting on a headband I get my clothes and freshen up. Ready for my date with William I wait on the couch for his text. A few minutes later I get a call from Zayn.
‘Hello?’ my heart starts racing.
‘Hi Sara how are you? Sorry I haven’t call.’ His voice is angelic.
‘Oh that’s fine. It’s not like I’m waiting by the phone, so what’s up?’
‘I’m on break from rehearsals and thought I should give you a call. Do you miss me?’
‘Of course.’ Bu-bump ‘But I’m not the one who left.’ Suddenly my brain turns on and I remember all the websites and pictures of him and Perrie.
‘Well I miss you. I should be done here in another two days maybe I can stop by and..’
‘Zayn, I think we really need to talk. I feel weird saying this but I, Googled you and I found some surprising things. Who is..’
‘Zayn baby who are you talking to? We really need to leave if we want to make the reservations.’
‘Whose that?’
‘Yeah I’ll meet you in the car. Sara I uh have to go okay I’ll call you later. Bye love.’ Click.
And with that abrupt ending I put down my phone and start to sob my eyes out. Not getting very far with the sniffling and screaming the doorbell rings and I hear Williams voice.
“Sara are you okay? Can I come in?”
“Hold on.” Wiping my eyes and getting up off the floor I turn around to look at myself in the mirror. I look awful. Trying to take off my running mascara I get frustrated when my phone rings again. It has his name. “Go away liar.” I throw my phone on the couch and leave the apartment with William. After we order our lunch I have nothing much to say. Sitting there quietly I can’t seem to look William in the eyes.
“I’m glad we’re talking. I’m just sorry we didn’t earlier.” He says playing with his hair.
“Yeah it’s nice to just interact with someone who’s normal.” Looking away at the other people.
“Normal?” he says giving me a confused look “What do you mean?” Taking my hand into his.
“Just someone who’s like me, an average working person who no one gives a crap about.” What?
“Okay I’m not following. We’re still talking about us right?”
“I don’t know. Well before you, I went out with this other guy and he was amazing.”
“Ouch. And where does that leave me?” taking a drink of his tea.
“Oh sorry I didn’t mean amazing, I meant psychotic. We have never really been on a real date. We just stayed inside the house and hang out. No movies or walks through the park or even eating at a restaurant. He just kept me locked away. Something crazy like that.” Chugging my water to forget about that awkwardness I just let out of my mouth.
“Okay? Well I’ll assure you that I will never keep you locked inside”
Our food soon comes and we start talking and laughing and I honestly forget about Zayn. Hours later we end up at the City Park walking around and enjoying nature. It’s almost 4 and it starts to rain. Rushing under the shade house we are laughing our butts off when the lightning booms.
I get those butterflies again just looking at him. His blue eyes, his smile, and his warm hands holding me. Deep down I feel like this is the only chance for a normal relationship. And I want to keep it.
