Give Me Love (A Zayn Malik Fan Fiction)

Chapter Twelve - The Date

Again, everything was perfect the next month and a half. More and more people were taking my side ever since Olivia and Macey started to support me in public. More people talked to me no matter where I was and no matter whom I was around. They realized Tracy couldn’t kick everyone out just because they were talking to me. Zayn talked to me a few times outside of Romeo and Juliet but he usually kept his distance. Harry knew about us. I was actually kind of close with Harry since he was friends with Macey and Olivia he was often at my cabin. He told me that he knew all about me and Zayn.

Zayn hadn’t told him voluntarily. Harry had asked a lot of question about what happened that first day at the camp and where Zayn was going all the time and Zayn eventually told him. Macey or Olivia didn’t know anything yet though. I was planning on telling them when Zayn agreed on telling the rest of the world. Right now it was only I, Zayn and Harry that knew. I was fine with that right now because I know how much trouble Zayn was in with the press.

Harry and Zayn left the camp for a few days since One Direction was invited to play at the Olympics closing ceremony! Everyone on the camp was watching the whole thing on a big screen. More than half of the people on the camp were musicians so of course we had to watch “The Symphony of British Music”. It was amazing and that was actually the first time I ever heard One Direction sing. The song was really catchy and good so I understood why it had been so successful with it.

The day after Zayn came back to the camp he had plenty of stories to tell me. He met tons of celebrities backstage and I was very jealous. I also found out that Harry and the rest of the band was good friends with Ed Sheeran. I was so jealous because I’ve been a fan of Ed for so many years back when no one knew who he was and loved every single one of his songs. On the ceremony he did an amazing cover of Pink Floyds “Wish You Were Here” together with a few of UK’s talented musicians. It was amazing seeing him there considering I saw him on YouTube with not too many views.

I bet that’s how the One Direction fans also felt since many of them was there from the start. Zayn had told me all about X-factor and their journey to success was incredible.

It was yet another week after the closing ceremony and Zayn and I were sitting in or usual spots in the meadow.

“You know what?” Zayn asked me with a voice filled with excitement.

“No?” I said with a smile. I was hoping, hoping so bad he would make us official.

“That date you could win with me?”

“Yes…” I looked at his silly face expression.

”I heard you tried to leave the competition. That hurt me.”

”I’m sorry. It was before. I don’t know why really. You were just really mean to me that first day.”     

“It’s fine Jesse. It’s I that have to apologize and I’ve already done that a million times so you’ve said you don’t want to her more. But Jesse, you won it.”

“What? I did? Did you cheat?” I looked at him suspiciously.

“I didn’t cheat! I promise.” He shakes his head honestly. “You won it, fair and square. Aren’t you excited? We get to spend an entire night together out in the world without anyone wondering.”

“But they will notice. The way we look at each-other and talk to one another.”

”I’ve talked to the people in charge of the show and the episode isn’t released until November or something! They don’t reveal anything until then!”

“Okay, but we should still just act like friends. It will be weird otherwise.” I mean the cameramen would wonder what kind of whores we were if we would be all over each-other when that date was supposed to be our first meeting.

The next day was a Sunday and we left camp in the afternoon without anyone noticing. We had a pretty weird date considering the cameras around us. I thought the whole concept of the show was really weird considering it was only a entertaining show that would show fans and others how it would be to date a celebrity.

The first thing they did was to interview both of us separately where we told the camera some things about ourselves.

For the first thing of the date, we were suppose to cock diner but no one of us really know how to cook so we just ended up making sandwiches with all kinds of gross stuff on but it still tasted good. After that we went to the movies and then we bought an ice cream walking around in the park discussing the movie and some other random things.

The date ended with a simple hug and smile and then we went separate ways and told the cameras what we thought of the date. I said something like “Zayn is very down to earth considering he’s a celebrity. He treated me well and was really nice to talk to.”

Then we went back to the camp in the same car. Alone in the backseat where we could be ourselves. We laughed, talked and kissed, even though the chauffeur saw everything… When the car parked at the camp it was beyond dark outside but we ran down to our meadow anyway, Zayn grabbed a blanket fast in his cabin on the way so we didn’t have to lie down in the wet grass. All day we both wanted to be alone with each-other but now I realized I couldn’t it. Something was haunting me and I had to tell him. 

”I’ve got something to tell you Zayn.” I said as out make out started to heat up. It actually made me feel uncomfortable. I needed to tell him this.

“I’ve something to say as well!” He said excitedly. Since he obviously was going to tell me something happy I let him go first.

“I’m going to tell everyone about us. Tomorrow if I get the right opportunity. I don’t want to hide you anymore; I want the world to know who I love.”

“Thanks Zayn, it means a lot.” I said and kissed him deeply.

“You don’t have to thank me; of course you should be shared with the rest of the world!” I said pecking my lips again. “Now what did you have to tell me?”

“Oh, it was nothing.” I couldn’t tell him know. I wanted the world to know first. Then I could tell him.

“Okay.” He said and started to kiss me again. I pulled away. “I’m sorry, I have to go, the girls are probably getting suspicious.” 

After giving him a quick kiss I ran through the forest and back to the cabin. I probably left Zayn confused but I had to go. I was also confused since I had something to say that I couldn’t hide forever but I was also so damn happy because he was telling everyone tomorrow!

I had a huge grin on my face when I opened the door of the cabin.

“Where you going all the time Jessica?” Macey asked me as she greeted me when I closed  the door behind me.

“And why do you have a huge smile on your face?” Olivia added. “Tell us!”

”You can’t tell anyone about this yet!” I said seriously as I sat down on my bed.

“Of course, you can trust us! Tell now!”

“What if I told you that I’ve been seeing Zayn and that we’ve been a couple ever since the second week of the camp?” I said hesitating not knowing how they would react.

“Shut up!”

I told them a lot of things and it felt like everything was going to be fine. For the first time in a very long time I could be truly happy. If only I had known what the world had in store for me tomorrow…
