Unexpected Love

Chapter 18

Ayan's POV
When I woke up I looked at the alarm clock. It read 2:35. I had woke up around this time multiple times. But it's not in the afternoon, it's in the middle of the night. Which is not as normal. I couldn't stop thinking about the events that accord today. Zayn wanted to hang out with me again. But as a date.

Now I did tell him a little lie. We're not really allowed to date. But we are allowed to meet up with someone if you think they are the one. And if Zayn see's me that way I don't know what I'll do. I know my parents won't approve. If I tell them his name I know one of my sisters will realize who he is.

Did I mention I had sisters? No? Well I have one sister named Amal who got married a couple months ago. Right after she graduated from college as a nurse. Her husband is a pretty wealthy doctor. As you can probably guess my parents definitely approve.

My other sister Ladan is still in college but is engaged to... A dentist. Which my parents obviously approve of. Do you expect me to come around and say "oh I'm going to marry and international pop star". Not gonna happen. I'm gonna go to college to be a nurse and get married to a pretty successful guy. Just like my parents wanted me to. That is what I want right?

But I can't help but think back to Zayn. The way that he blushes when he asks me about our religion. How he told me I was pretty and then looked surprised that he said that out loud. Will I ever find someone like that again?

I think I really am falling for an international pop star. And I slowly drift to sleep thinking about those gorgeous brown eyes of his.

•next day•

I woke up and looked at my alarm clock. It read 10:05. Still early for me but I might as well get up. I got up and went to the bathroom. I bruised my teeth and washed my face. I then tried to tame my wild black curls. After doing the best I could I put it up in a pony tail and walked down the stairs still in my pj's( honestly just a pair of sweats and a T-shirt).

I saw my sister Ladan and my mom about to. "Oh good you're awake. Ladan and I are going to go shopping for a wedding dress. I left a list of chores for to do while we're gone" my mom said picking up her purse and phone from the counter top in the kitchen. I was about to protest when u realized there's no use.

"Fine" I said. "Great, the list is on the kitchen counter. Bye" she said as she walked out the front door. The first thing I did was grab my iPod and my earphones and started blaring One Direction music into my ears. even though I know them I still love their music.

I had finished washing the dishes and making the beds so I went inside my room to grab my phone. I was about to turn the TV on in the family room when I realized I got a text from Harry.

From:TheCurls
No need to do the plan anymore.

To:TheCurls
What do you mean?

From:TheCurls
We made up.

To:TheCurls
Seriously?

From:TheCurls
Yeah, I'll explain later.

I didn't think Harry would actually do this himself. But he obviously really wants to be with Safiya. How will he handle it when he gets rejected.

Laila's POV
I was sitting on the couch on my phone bored as hell. Yesterday had been so fun. We just walked around the mall cracking jokes here and there and scaring the crap out of girls when they realized that they just saw 2/5 of One Direction.

I was so glad Safiya forgave Harry. I mean the poor guy could have done anything but instead he came to a city he doesn't know just for her. That's just too cute to ignore.

After a while my phone started ringing. I checked and saw it was Niall. "Hello" I said when I picked up. "Hey, Harry, Zayn, Safiya, Ayan, and I are all going to hannout today. You gonna come?" Niall asked. "Sure, why not" I answered. "Cool, we're going to meet up at the hotel in 3 hrs and just have a movie marathon. You want me to pick you up?" He asked.

I looked into the kitchen and saw my mom cooking something. Two of my younger brothers were out back playing basketball and my last brother was out hanging out with his friends.if anyone at home saw me getting picked up by a guy I would be in so much trouble. And he's not Muslim. If he was I could have made up some excuse. But I'm definitely not supposed to be close to a guy who's not even Muslim. "It's fine. I'll get Ayan or Safiya to pick me up in their way. Or just drive my self" I assure him nicely. "Okay, see you there" he said and hung up.

"Hey mom" I said out loud. "Yes" she called from the kitchen. "Can I hang out at a friends place today. We're just watching a bunch of movies" I said hoping she won't ask who. "Who's going to be there" she asked. I cringed, I really don't like long unless I have too. "It's with Safiya" I said hoping she won't realize I didn't say where. "Okay" she said going back to whatever she was doing. I smiled in victory but still felt a little guilt. Hopefully that will pass soon.

• 2hrs later •
I realized that Safiya would come and pick me up in a little so I decided to get dressed.

I chose a black maxi dress and put on a gray sheer button down blouse on top of the dress. I put on some flats and put on a little eyeliner. I lastly put in a gray scarf around my head.

I then got a text.

From: Safiya <3
I'm here

To: Safiya <3
I'll be out in a minute.

So I quickly checked how I look and went out the door.

I don't know what happen but I went up by 600 reads in the last 24 hrs. Which has never happened before. The most i had was probably 50 reads. I don't know what you guys did but keep it up! Love ya guys!
