Chapter 13

As we were driving down the road, Story of My Life came on and I glanced at Zayn. He was smiling as he started to sing Harry's part. As soon as it got to his solo, Sammie tugged on his arm. "Yes sweetie?" "You sound just like Zayn Malik!!" "That's because I am." He said laughing. "No you're not!" "I promise I am." "Hey Sam, what's that one song you like?" "Uh....oh!! Whstsnslaahsie." She mumbled. I smirked. I knew what she wanted. "What was that?" "What Makes You Beautiful." He smiled. "So c-c'mon. You got it wrong. To prove I'm right, I put it in a so-o-ng! I don't know why you're being shy. And turn away when I look into your eyes!!" "Oh my gosh you are!!!" He laughed as she flung her arms around his neck. "I told you princess." She giggled and kissed his cheek. "Uncle Zayn?" "Mhmm?" "You're my favourite." "Thank you." We pulled into her driveway and hopped out. I got her out and Zayn grabbed her bag. We walked up to the front door and knocked. She was jumping around, I guess still excited about Zayn. The door opened and she jumped into Jordan's arms. "How's Mikayla doing?" I asked hugging him. "She's doing a lot better. She's hoping to get released tonight." "I hope she does." He nodded. "Me too. It's different without her around." I nodded. "I bet...Sammie Jo just found out that Zayn is the same Zayn she has pictures of. She never put it together." He laughed. "Yeah, I was wondering when she'd realize it." "Yeah daddy! He sings really good!!" "I know he does. I've heard him before. Why don't you go play with your doll?" "Okay!" She ran over to me. "My Aunt Towwi!" "Bye sweetie. Love you." "I love you too." I kissed her head and then she clung to Zayn. "Bye Uncle Zayn!!" "Bye Princess." He kissed her head and she finally let go of him and ran to her room. "Thanks for watching her." "You're welcome. It was fun. Except for 2:30 this morning but, it's all taken care of." "Did she wake you up?" He groaned. "Yes, but I'm glad she did." Zayn said, grabbing my hand. "What happened?" "There was someone in the house." "What?! Is everything okay? Did you call the police??" "It was Josh." "Josh?? What? Why was he in there?" "He er, needed to talk to Tori." "Oh alright. Is everything okay?" "It is now. Thanks." He nodded. "I'll see you two some time." "Alright bye." We waved as we walked off. Zayn pulled me into his arms and kissed me hard. "I love you." "Where'd that come from?" I asked half laughing. He shrugged. "I felt like you needed to know." I smiled. "I love you too." I kissed him again. He squeezed me tighter. "Let's go home." I climbed into the passenger's side. "Actually, how about we go get your stuff so we don't have to do it later." "Alright babe." He grabbed my hand and kissed it. "While I was gone the other day and you were at the hospital, I got your Christmas present!" "Zayn! I told you not to get me anything." "And I told you I was!" I reached up and grabbed his hat from his head. "Hey!" "What?" "You took my hat." "Yes I did." "Give it back." "Whatcha gonna do about it if I don't?" He glanced over with a devilish smirk. He leaned over while we were at a red light and kissed me hard. I wrapped my arms around his neck, enjoying it. He suddenly pulled away and I saw he had the hat. "Told ya I'd get it." "Okay. I give you props on that but, how about we make a bet." "I'm listening." "The first to kiss the other loses." "Alright. Fair enough. Wager?" "I win, you have to do whatever I say." "Alright. Same for me. I win, you have to do what I say." "Alright." I grabbed his hand in mine. "This is going to be fun."

"Thank you again Zayn." "You're very very welcome. I want you here though." I smiled to myself and went upstairs. I changed into some short shorts and a tank top. I'm going to win this. I put on some lip gloss and went downstairs. "Hey babe. You look good." "Thanks." I walked over and sat as close as I could to him. He wrapped an arm around me. "Ah, you did that so you'd win huh?" I smirked. "Maybe." "Yeah, well I can do that to." He raised up and slipped off his shirt. He knows I like his abs! I straddled him and stared up at him. He leaned in to kiss me but stopped. "This is f****** hard babe." "Tell me about it. But I WILL win." "We'll see about that."
