As I opened the door of my flat, I saw Alia with several bags in her hands. She smiled at me apologetically.

"You do have a key of my flat, you didn't need to ring the bell." I said in a bored tone. She gave me a bored look.

"Can't you see I'm holding the grocery bags in my hand?" She asked, lifting the bags. I rolled my eyes and moved to a side, letting her in. She was living with me for almost a week now.

"How many more days are you gonna stay? I don't want Harry to be upset because of me." I said through a chuckle as I closed the door.

"Ha ha ha. Very funny." She replied in a sarcastic tone. I walked to her and smacked her arm. "Ow! What? My sister is moving in with her boyfriend in a week, I want to spend some time with her!" She exclaimed dramatically, placing her hand on her chest. I rolled my eyes.

"Alia, I know you're here because Muskaan and Soniya are here." I said, she shrugged in response.

"If you know, why are you asking?" She asked. Muskaan came towards us with a sigh. She rested her forehead on my shoulder.

"What happened?" I asked. She shook her head.

"Soniya is finally asleep, after 30 minutes of walking around carrying her. Being around kids is so tiring." She mumbled. I patted her head.

"So, should I have kids, or no?" Alia asked. I mentally facepalmed. Why does she have to be so... out of the world?

"Even after all the tiredness, it's worth it." Muskaan said again as she stood up straight, with a smile on her face. "Anyways, what about your date tonight?" She asked, facing me.

"What about it?" I asked again. Alia scoffed.

"Come on! It's your first date with Zayn since you got back together again. What are you wearing though?" She asked. A small smile lingered my lips as I thought about it. I had my dress prepared.

"Don't worry about it.." I answered, shrugging my shoulders.

*DING DONG*

"He came already?" Alia asked, confusion clear on her face. I shrugged my shoulders.

"Maybe it's Harry. You're living here from like, a week. He misses you." I said as I walked towards the door, hearing Alia chuckle. I opened the door to find a young boy. Standing with a parcel and a bouquet of light pink roses.

"Miss. Aisha?" The boy asked. I nodded.

"Yea, that's me." I answered. The boy smiled.

"A gift for you..." He said handing me the parcel and bouquet. I gave him a half smile. Who send this?

"From Mr. Zayn." He added, my smile grew wider. I took both of them and closed the door as he left. So, he sent me a gift just before our date.

"Who gave this? Mena massoud?" Alia asked. I shook my head and chuckled.

"You know I denied to go on a date with him, right?" I asked as I looked at the flowers. It had a note in them.

'You may not hold my hand for a while, But you hold my heart forever'

I smiled as I read it.

"He's cute though.." Alia interrupted. I gave her a look. Both of us sat on the couch.

"You know what? You should have auditioned for Jasmine.. I would love to see the look on Zayn's face when your Aladdin kisses you.." she said, imagining the scene.

"Your imagination level's great. But I suck at singing." I replied. She nodded.

"What's that?" Muskaan asked as she entered the living area, where we were seated.

"Zayn sent her a gift." Alia answered. Muskaan's eyes widened.

"So open it, what are you waiting for?" She said excitedly, making me laugh a little.

I opened the packing of the parcel. There was a box. I opened it. And my jaw dropped in amazement. It had a note in it.

'I thought this would look great on you. Wear this for our date today...'

"Oh my God! This is so beautiful!!" Muskaan and Alia chirped at the same time. I took my phone and called Zayn.

"Hello sugarcup.." he said. I chuckled at the nickname.

"You sent me a saree for date?!" I exclaimed as I removed it out of the box. It was really beautiful.

"Yea.. you like it?" He asked. I shook my head in disbelief.

"Like it? I love it!! I'll definitely wear it.." I said, making him laugh.

"You did take a matching outfit to her saree, right?" Alia asked in between, snatching the phone from my hand. Me and Muskaan facepalmed. He laughed.

"Yes bhabhi.. I did!!" I heard him reply. And I chuckled.

"Don't call me that! It makes me feel old!!" She yelled. I took the phone from her hand.

"Ok.. enough for today.." I said, making Alia frown.

"You're texting me the destination later, right?" I asked. He stopped laughing.

"Are you kidding me? I'm gonna pick you up!" He replied. I nodded in realisation. I had been going to places by myself for a long time.

"O..ok. Bye then.." I said, but he interrupted.

"Aren't you missing those three magical words?" He asked. I could totally imagine him smirking. Blush crept up to my cheeks.

"Do I need to?" I asked, looking over at the girls as they were busy admiring the saree. He chuckled.

"Yes!" He said. I rolled my eyes playfully.

"Ok.. get ready. I'm gonna say it.." I trailed off.

"I'm waiting babe.." he said. I stayed silent for a while.

"See ya later!" I exclaimed. He huffed.

"That's not fair!!" He whined.

"Everything is fair in love and war.." I chuckled and ended the call.

I kept my phone aside and took a good look at the saree. It was a pastel pink coloured chiffon saree with embroidary at the borders. I opened the fold and a sleevless blouse fell on my lap. He did everything already.. I rushed to my room and tried it. It fitted me perfectly. I went out and stood in front of them.

"It's good, right?" I asked, looking at my sides, and then at them. Their jaws almost touched the floor. I saw Muskaan's lips curving up.

"The blouse fits you perfectly and all, but is that a love bite I see?" She asked in a wondering tone, pointing at my chest. Shit! How did I forget that?! My face started turning into a shade of red. I looked down immediately and place my hand over the spot.

"Um.. No, not at all?" It came out as a question. I looked up again, both of them were smirking.

"Aww.. don't act like you didn't do anything. We know you went with Zayn to his flat after the party and also the deed you did.." Alia said in a childish tone. Wow! Great way to embarass your sister.

"Alia, enough." I stated, the shy smile still on my face.

"Ok.. I just wanna watch you when you take it off.." She sang in a low voice, making Muskaan chuckle. My face went to the deeper shade.

"Allu.. please." I requested. She held her fist in front of her mouth and cleared her throat.

"PILLOWTALK!!" She sang. I shook my head rapidly.

"Ok! Stop it!!" I whined, hiding my face in my hands. The girls started laughing. I went and sat with them again.

"Ok enough! Does anyone know how to wear a saree?" Muskaan asked after they stopped laughing. Alia rolled her eyes.

"Of course Aisha does! She's a stylist after all.. right Aisha?" They looked at me hopefully. I nodded confidently. And they dragged me to the bedroom to 'glam me up'. Alia raided my closet to find matching accessories and footwear. While I wore the saree, with Muskaan helping me wherever needed.

After almost half an hour, we were successful. Alia gave me a pair of golden peep toe heels, my golden watch and a pair of small jhumke. Everything matched, not perfectly, but it was fine. Muskaan and Alia asked me if they can do my make up and hair, but I refused. They huffed angrily for some minutes, but then left my room.

I just brushed my hair lightly and let them down in their natural state. My face had the 'no make-up' make up look, with a bit of eyeliner and nude lipstick. I took a final look in the mirror, I was happy how I looked. I exited my room and some squeals made me jump. I saw the faces of the two girls, they were grinning from ear-to-ear. I sighed, what would I do in my life without these two idiots?

"I can't believe I'm saying this.. but you look more beautiful than me.." Alia sighed. My eyes widened in shock, while my hand rested on my chest. Did Alia say this? My very own, bitchy, annoying sister-

"Don't get too excited.. this compliment is just for today." She said, making me roll my eyes.

*DING DONG*

"He's here!" Both of them squealed. I raised my hands in defence. They were getting more excited than me.

"Guys.. relax. It's my date." I replied. Alia rushed to the door and opened it. I facepalmed. How are they this excited? I should be the one acting like this, right?

"Ok.. slowly... there's a small wall extension here..." we heard Alia mumbling.

"Ouch!" Zayn exclaimed, making us laugh.

"Told you.. we're almost here." Alia appeared with Zayn, her hand covering his eyes. And Oh My Gosh!! He was looking angelic! The white tux fitting him perfectly, his hair swept slightly to a side. He owned the look.

"Ok, I'm revealing your beautiful, gorgeous, breath-taking girlfriend now, so—"

"Just take your hand off already!" He whined. We chuckled.

She took her hand off. His eyes blinked a few times, then wide opened. His mouth opened to say something, but hung there. His eyes roamed from my head to toe, and then to my face again. I blushed at his reaction. As we were enjoying watching each other, Alia snapped her fingers in front of his face. He looked a her with a bored expression.

"Don't look at me like that, devar ji... Just take her out of here already!" She pointed at me. He let out a silent chuckle and smiled at me. He stepped towards me, extending his hand out. I gave my hand in his, he bowed a little and kissed it, making my smile grow wider. He looked at Muskaan, and then Alia.

"See you later, ladies.." he said as we walked towards the door.

"Have fun!!" Muskaan yelled.

"We will!" I yelled back. Zayn stopped on his tracks and looked at me.

"We will?" He asked with a smirk. I hit his arms slightly and laughed.

"Let's go!" He chuckled as I said.

We reached his car. He opened the passenger seat for me like a gentleman, and rushed towards his door after closing mine. I chuckled. It made me remember our very first date, he gave me roses and chocolates. It was a really special day, and so was today. He entered the car and looked at me, resting his elbow on the steering wheel and leaning on it.

"What did I do to deserve such a beautiful soul like you?" He said through a sigh. I looked down as blush crept up my cheeks. He lifted my face with his fingers, his gaze meeting mine.

"You're looking really gorgeous Ash..." My heartbeat picked up pace as his mint breath hit my face. I moved my hand to cup his face

"So are you.. I've never seen such a beautiful man in my whole life!" I said brushing my thumb on his lips. He playfully tried to bite it, making both of us chuckle.

"Let's go?" I asked. He nodded and pulled back in his seat, buckling his belt. I did the same and we drove off.

After a while, the car stopped. I looked out of the window, it was a forest like area. I looked at Zayn. He unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car, rushing towards my side. I unbuckled mine too. He opened the door and took my hand, pulling me out of my seat. The cold breeze hit my arms. I pulled the free end of the saree around my arm and got out. I was still confused.

"I know the weather's a bit cold, but trust me." He said as he snaked his arm around my shoulder. I smiled and nodded. He smiled at me and covered my eyes. He lead me somewhere. The ground was a bit uneven, so I was scared. My clumsy-self didn't wanted to trip and fall.

After some seconds, my body felt a bit warm. He lifted his hand from my eyes. My eyes widened at the beautiful view in front of me. A dinner table was set in front of me, with a small campfire at a side. The surrounding was decorated with lanterns. It was breath-taking. My hand left the free end of saree down and instantly covered my mouth.

"I know its not that good. But, I tried my best.. for you." He said. I turned to him with teary eyes.

"Are you kidding me? Its absolutely beautiful! Thank you.." I exclaimed and hugged him. He kissed my temple as we pulled away.

"Anything for you love!" He said as he led me to the table. He pulled the chair out for me to sit. We both sat down. He connected his phone to a small Bluetooth speaker. I looked in his phone and chuckled at the 'playlist for date'. There was a wine bottle kept in a small bucket of ice. He opened the bottle and began serving two glasses. I watched him intently as he did all this. He looked cute.

"Your pizza sir.." a voice interrupted my thought. A boy stood there, holding two boxes of pizza. Zayn thanked him and he walked away.

"We didn't even pay him!" I said, he smiled at me.

"Everything is already done. You just enjoy the date!" He said resting his chin on his hand. I chuckled and served the slices of pizza to both of us. We ate all of it.

A familiar tune started playing, both of us smiled as we recognised it. It was our dear friend Nialler's song. He looked down as his cheeks changed colour. I chuckled, it wasn't often that you'd see him blushing.

"So.. can I have a dance with you?" He asked as he looked at me from under his lashes. I wanted to kiss him that moment, but there was a table separating us.

I held his hand and nodded. We got up from our chairs and swayed gently to the music. The steady wind, campfire, the atmosphere, him, everything felt cliche. It was lovely.

"You should wear saree often, it looks good on you.." he said in between. I hummed and nodded in appreciation. He had a good choice.

"But it would look even better on my bedroom floor." He moved closer to my ear and whispered, I looked down and laughed a little.

"Oh! How I missed the cheesy you!!" I whined. He laughed. I spoke again after his laughter stopped.

"You don't even know how many efforts it took to be wrapped around my body." It was true though, wearing saree was difficult. He raised one of his eyebrows and his lips turned into a smirk again.

"So its good then. It would be fun unwrapping my gift." He said again. I shook my head in disbelief, laughing. I rested my head on his shoulder.

"Thank you for giving us another chance." He said in a low voice, which broke me from my trance. I looked at him.

"I wanted to-"

The voice of sudden thunder made him stop talking. I mentally cursed, I didn't wanted this date to end this soon. We looked at each other.

"We should go.." He said.

"What about all this?" I looked at the set up and then at him. It would be ruined. He shook his head.

"It will be taken care of, honey. Don't worry." He assured me, while I nodded. We took our phones, and moved towards the car. We reached just in time, heavy showers started pouring. I frowned, which made Zayn chuckle.

"Babe, our date is not ruined." He stated as he turned the heat on. I nodded. He leaned towards me and pressed a quick kiss on my lips.

We buckled up and drove off. The rain was still pouring. "So what now?" I asked. It felt like my first date was ruined.

"I don't know.. Can we go to my place? Spend the night together maybe..." He suggested, and bit his lower lip. And I rolled my eyes playfully, remembering how Alia teased me today.

"Ok.." I answered, and he smirked. "Well, who said spending the night together meant having sex?" I mumbled and looked at him. He looked at me and pouted, which made me laugh.

"You're cute." I said again, and his pout grew into a smile.

He pulled into the driveway of his house. We entered and I breathed out of relief. His house was warm, and gave the feeling of home more than mine.

"You want anything?" He asked locking the door behind us. I nodded my head.

"Clothes. I don't want to sleep in this." I said lifting my saree a bit. He nodded. We went to his bedroom, he opened the closet and gestured me to take anything. I looked over my clothes which he kept with him from the past three months. Yea, it had been three months to July. But then, I smirked at my thoughts.

I closed it and opened the one with Zayn's clothes. He chuckled at my actions.

"What? I can't use my boyfriend's clothes?" I asked, looking at him. He shrugged.

"Who said that? What's mine is yours.." He said. I turned towards his clothes and took a white shirt out. I started taking my accessories off and taking off the saree. His warm finger glided over my bare waist, giving me tickles. He placed a kiss against my neck and rested his chin on my shoulders.

"Atleast let me change." I whispered through a chuckle. He spun me.

"I thought I would help you.." He whispered. I smirked and held his shoulders.

"Sure.." I said and pushed him away lightly. "Go get changed and get some warm blankets.." I ordered, crossing my arms against my chest. He angrily pouted at me like a five year old, took some clothes for himself and left the closet. I chuckled at his behaviour.

I wore the shirt and left the closet. There was no one in the bedroom, so I just sat on the bed with my back leaned against the head board.

Suddenly, Toby, his lovely labradoodle jumped on the bed. My face lightened up as I saw him and I quickly grabbed his face, petting him. I hadn't seen him in days, he was really cute though. He sat on my laps, placing his head on my stomach as he tried licking my hand. I loved playing with him.

"Oi! That's my cuddling partner." I turned my head towards Zayn as he spoke up. He sat beside me and pulled the blanket over us. I looked at him in disbelief and chuckle. "I ain't talking to you babe, I'm talking to Toby." He looked at him. "She's my cuddling partner, leave her alone." He said in a childish tone booping his nose, while Toby just licked his finger. We let out a small laugh. No wonder why Toby was adored by Zayn's fans.

"Oi! Where are ya going?" I asked with a pout as Zayn lifted him from my lap and got up. He gave me a quick kiss.

"Time for his dinner! Toby, dad's gonna give ya food, say bye to mommy.." He said in a childish tone, making me chuckle. His friends, family members, and even his fans knew that he considered himself as Toby's dad, which was really cute. He left the room with Toby, while I sighed. Am I the only one who finds English guys with their pets hot?

He came back after a while and sat beside me. I smiled at him as he wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my shoulder, looking at me from under his lashes. And damn! He looked beautiful from every angle.. "I can't wait for you to move in with me." He said through a sigh. I placed my lips against his forehead.

"Me too.. I miss Toby everyday." I said with a smirk. Zayn glared at me, making me laugh. I turned the lights off and snuggled into the blanket, closer to Zayn. I hid my face into his chest. God! I felt so safe there, into his arms.

"Good night, babe." I mumbled. He kissed my forehead lightly, and then my lips.

"Good night.." He said, which was the only thing I heard before drifting off to sleep.

The next morning..

The constant buzzing of my phone interupted my sleep. I stretched and yawned, trying to go to sleep again. My phone started buzzing again. I opened my eyes unwillingly. Why do people have to disturb me on this fine morning with my boyfr- where's Zayn?

My eyes roamed the whole room for Zayn, who was supposed to be laying beside me. Then, the pleasant smell of eggs and bacon hit my nose. Ah! They smell so good!

I got up and walked towards the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, the smell making me do my morning routine quicker. Zayn didn't cook often, but when he did, he literally smashed it in the best way.

"Good morning!" Zayn said as soon as I left the bathroom. I went into his arms for a hug, exactly what I needed this fine morning.

"Good morning love.." I said. But groaned as my phone buzzed again. I rested my forehead on his shoulder.

"What happened hun? You're phone's been going off from almost an hour." He said. I looked at him and nodded. "You sure everything is okay?" He asked, I shrugged. We broke our hug and walked towards the bed.

I plopped down on the bed and took my phone, which was constantly buzzing. I raised an eyebrow. "What is wrong with people today?" I mumbled, making Zayn chuckle beside me. 43 messages?? Why? What on earth happened?

To Alia

Yes I was sleeping. I just woke up some minutes ago. What happened? Why are people messaging me?

From Alia

OH YOU FUCKING IDIOT! Open you Instagram and REPLY!!!

Instagram?

I quickly opened my Instagram to see what was actually wrong. But when I did, my eyes widened in shock. It took me some minutes to actually realise that was really happening. The first post on my page was this..

Tears formed in my eyes and I gasped in shock. I looked at Zayn, who was now standing in front of me. "You're my everything Aisha, you mean my world to me. And If you allow me to, I'll promise my heart, along with my love to you.. I'll be faithful and true. I'll promise to always be there for you." My breath hitched at his words, making my eyes watery and my heart pounding in my chest. "I'll cherish you until the end of time. I believe, God made me complete when he brought you into my life.. I wanted to tell this to the whole world. And I did... 'Cause you are my true love." Shivers went down my spine. He's so adorable..

"Now, I'm going to do the thing that I was going to do, 5 years ago..." He kneeled down on one knee as his hand went to his back pocket. I gasped, my hands covered my mouth as more tears started forming.

"Aisha Ronak Mehra..." He said, revealing a beautiful ring held in his fingers.

"Be mine?" Tears rolled down my cheeks as I grinned. I wanted to speak, but the words were stuck. So I just nodded my head. He held his hand out and I gave mine. He slid the ring and kissed my hand. I pulled him up and hugged him tightly.

"I love you, baby... This is the best day of my life.. thank you so much." I managed to say. He pulled away from me and cupped my face, wiping my tears with his thumb. I wrapped my arms around his neck and leaned in to kiss him. He wrapped his around my waist and deepened the kiss, lifting me lightly. I giggled against his lips.

"Oh God! I still can't believe this is happening.. I never thought you'd do it like this!" I said, still not believing we were actually engaged. He chuckled and kissed me one more time.

"I wanted the whole world to know that you are mine.. My Love.. My Fiancée.." He said, looking at me intently. "So, let's tell the world?" He asked with a grin, I nodded vigorously.

He quickly took a picture on my phone and I posted it. Loads of people reacted in some matter of seconds. I kept the phone to a side and hugged him again. I was so happy, I couldn't even express. My dream came true. I think this time, Fate wanted us to be together. And hopefully, we would be together, loving and adoring each other for the rest of our lives, or let's say, till the end..
