Zayn has left :( But in my heart he is still in 1D and I will always love him. So I'm sorry it took me so long to write this chapter it just has upset me so that I couldn't think about Zayn :( It really sucked and I know it sucked for alot of other people too. I hope everyone is coping with it okay now. I have been able to cope with it and I was finally able to write this chapter for you. This is pretty much a filler chapter but the next chapter is the one everyone is waiting for ;) I will give a warning in this chapter and the next chapter that There will be smut. In the next chapter, this is one warning and the second one will be in the beginning of the next chapter and that will be your last warning for smut because I just want to warn everyone because of my young readers. I will not change the smut because it is how I write and how I like it. But enough blabbering. Here are the outfits :)





Also remember that these ~~~ mean you should play a song in this case you should play How will I know by Sam Smith. Hope you enjoy :*

Chapter 28 – Take me home *Zayn’s P.O.V*

“Hi Zayn” Aubrey’s voice fills my ears once I enter our home “Hi baby” I give a toothy smile as she enters through the archway. Setting the McDonald’s bags down on the table she envelopes me in a hug. I kiss her forehead lovingly. So obviously I had to do something to show that I wasn’t just down town at a photoshoot. Her mom sworn to secrecy not to tell Aubrey that I was there or about the shoot or that I was even there. I trust her. I just hope she keeps it. I was able to make $350 and it’s enough to get the gift for Aubrey. It’s sad I have to lie to her, but it’s a surprise.

“How did the shopping trip go?” I ask looking down into her blue eyes “It was great, the girls both got beautiful dresses” right on queue Katie and Alexis run in “I smell McDonalds” Alexis says “Come eat girls” I say pulling out French fries “But Zayn you need to see our dresses!” Katie says and then runs into the other room, Alexis follows her “It’s all they could talk about on the way back” Aubrey smiles, folding her arms “About what?” I raise an eyebrow “You seeing there dresses” I nod “Go see them” Aubrey nudges my shoulder and I oblige. Taking a small step towards the living room Katie runs out of her room holding a zipped up dress that says ‘le princess’ on it. “Look how pretty it is Zayn” she quickly ushers next to me holding it up for me to unzip. Kneeling down to her level, I smile pulling the zipper down. The dress is very pretty for a little girl, Katie runs out holding the same exact thing. Unzipping hers; her dress is just as pretty as Katie’s.

“Now come and eat girls” I chuckle entering the kitchen again. Aubrey sits at the small island texting on her phone. Walking to the other side of the island I open the bags and search for the snack wraps. They’re her favorite. Finding what I was looking for I hold them out to Aubrey “For milady” I say in a funny accent. Aubrey looks up with a smile on her lips. I love when she smiles like that. “You’re so sweet Zayn” she grabs them, leaning up and kissing my cheek. Pulling out a medium fry I set in front of Aubrey who has now taken two bites of her snack wrap “Were they good for you?” They usually are, but I must ask seeing as how I’m not only there brother but there father as well. “They were perfect Zayn” she nods. Right on queue once again the girls enter sitting down next to Aubrey. Handing Alexis a cheeseburger and Katie a Mcchicken they instantly tear them open. I give them a large fry to share and I pull out the big mac for myself.

After taking one bite out of it I set it down. I begin to walk away before Katie asks “Where are you going?” the other two start to stare at me. I try to come up with a logical explanation “Bathroom” I exclaim before turning on my heel and ushering away. Slamming Aubrey’s door behind me I breathe with relief. Running over to the end table on my side of the bed I open the drawer. Pulling up my shirt from behind I pull the Manella folder that was stuck in my jeans and shirt out. It’s the photos from the shoot, they’re only a copy. Miss. Jackson said it’s the start of my portfolio for modeling which I told her this would probably be the only time I would model because it was a little awkward for me to stand there in just white boxers as Miss. Jackson watched. But she didn’t give me dirty looks or anything so I guess that’s good. She did say that they may be featured in a few magazines which is whatever no one important will see them.
Throwing the folder into the drawer I slam it shut. The $350 sits in my wallet which is good because I can run to the bank tomorrow and get my grandmother’s- I mean. You can’t know what it is yet.

~The Next Day~

*Zayn’s P.O.V*

“Girls it’s time to get ready” Aubrey calls from the bedroom. She had spent all morning curling her hair to make it look perfect. Which this is also my queue to leave; clicking the television off I head to our room “I’ll see you later babe” I say kissing her forehead. She looks magnificent right now; her face clean of makeup, her hair sits perfectly in curls on her shoulders “You’re going to try being there. Right?” She asks a little unsteady; I smile “Of course” Hopefully by now you know I’m not actually going to work. She tries hard not to frown but I can see it on her mouth “Hey” I coo, pulling her into a hug “Don’t be down, I’ll be there” I say into her hair. She now looks up, smiling a bit “Okay” we stare at each other for a second longer before she says “You’re going to ruin my hair” pushing me away suddenly. I chuckle lightly, kissing her forehead once more before I’m leaving.

*Aubrey’s P.O.V*

Now that Zayn has left I can get my gown out of its cover slip. I am actually very excited for this party and I can’t wait to wear my one of a kind dress. Allison and Sam, in who I met yesterday will be coming over so we can all get ready together “Come and sit Alexis” I say patting the chair that sits in front of my mirror. I’m going to be doing everyone’s hair so we have to get ready early. I really hope Zayn does show up, I would be heartbroken if he didn’t.

~~~

“Is everyone ready?” I call from the kitchen. I had gotten a glass of water to quench my thirst before we got there. Katie and Alexis run from there room “Yes!” they say. I did their hair in a pretty updo, curls dangle down on the sides. I put a golden clip in their hair from the set that Allison had bought me for the first date Zayn and I went on. Sam and Allison now come out holding there gowns up; we all look gorgeous. Right on time we hear a honk from outside. Opening the front door it’s our limo that my mother had sent for us. Rupert is in the driver seat as he waits for us to get in. Locking the door behind myself we carefully make our way to the car. Scooting in one at a time; being careful not to ruin our hair. Rupert starts to drive once our door is shut. I begin to look out the window wondering if Zayn will actually come. Did he lie just to shut me up? Or did he mean it?

~~~

Pulling up to the back of the event we enter with a huge chandelier hanging. Music plays loudly as people dance on the dance floor. The woman dressed in beautiful gowns, seeing gold clips in there hair as the men are dressed in tuxedos wearing golden detailed masks. Niall and Liam instantly catch our eyes and come over “Wow, you look beautiful” Liam says eyeing Allison. Niall is silent as he stares at Sam with his mouth slightly apart. She giggles as she grabs his hand and drags him to the dance floor. Katie and Alexis instantly run off to the snack table as I’m left alone at the entrance “You look very nice Aubrey” I jump lightly to the shock of Louis standing next to me “Oh, thank you Louis” a thin smile plays at my lips “Where’s Zayn?” He raises an eyebrow. I wish I knew. “He’ll be here” I say, reassuringly.; Trying to convince myself as well “Aubrey!” My mother calls me from across the room. Leaving Louis to fend for himself, I head over to my mother “You look beautiful darling!” She gives me a big hug “Where is Zayn?” She asks “He’ll be here” I say again. Hoping that he shows up soon; I look around trying to catch my attention to something else. Everyone dances happily, the couples having the time of their lives. I wish Zayn was here.

“I’m sure he’ll be here Aubrey” I break from my thoughts; I didn’t mean to say that out loud oops.

-Half an hour later-

*Zayn’s P.O.V*

Come on, you’re such a twat! I mentally yell at myself. My hands shake with fear, the little black box that I’ve been so nervous about sits in my pocket. I’m pacing back and forth near my bike that I rode here on. My tux is very tight around my neck but I don’t care. That’s the least of my problems right now. What if she says no? What if she laughs in my face and says that I’m a joke? Zayn! What is your problem? You love this girl and you know she loves you. Don’t throw that ring away. I look at the shiny ring in the box for the 20th time; Unsure if I should give it to her or just forget it. I huff and sit on the curb. Fuck. What if this blows up in my face again? I’ve never went as far as a ring before. What if it’s too early? My hands are on my face as I sit in agony with my thoughts.

“Zayn?” A familiar voice calls me from behind. Turning quickly, it’s.. Rupert? “Rupert?” I stand quickly “Uh, hi” I side smile, my nerves everywhere “Is everything alright?” looking down he holds a cigarette between his fingers; his eyes instantly widen “Let’s um, keep this between us. Yeah?” I nod quickly, looking around to see if anyone else is around. The music plays loudly in the distance; I’m a block away from the house because I couldn’t find a parking space. So here I am. “Penny for your thoughts?” Rupert asks before puffing on the stick “Uh, well.. I’m just.. Unsure if I should give Aubrey my gift” My fingers feel clammy, What if he laughs at me too? “I see, what is it?” He raises an eyebrow again. Fuck, what do I do? Give him the ring? Or drop it. Fuck. Yolo. Pulling the black box from my pocket I hand it to him. He’s taken aback a bit as he opens it “Sir, a.. ring?” and that’s when I can’t hold it in anymore

“Yes. I know. It’s crazy Innit? But I love her okay? I can’t go a day without her and she just makes me so happy and I love her to the point that if she broke me I would let her do it again and again. I know giving her a ring is crazy but I’m not asking her to marry me. It’s a promise ring. I want her to know she has my heart and I want to know that her’s is mine and I’ve never wanted to be with a girl so bad. And she’s just, so beautiful. And when she smiles it lights up my whole day; and she has this laugh, gosh it is so cute. She laughs where she does this cute little snort and my stomach get so many butterflies that I feel like I could puke. And honestly, if I gave her that ring who knows if she even feels the same about me? Does she love me too? Rupert. Help. Me. What do I do?” When I finish I am so out of breath I have to get my composure back. I ruffle my hands through my hair as I look at Rupert. He is surprisingly, just standing there. Not saying a thing. We stand in silence for a moment before he steps closer to me. He lightly grabs my hand, placing the box in my palm.

“This is what you’re going to do” He takes one last puff of his cigarette before he throws it in the road “You’re going to go in there, sweep that girl off her feet. There is a small pathway that leads to a garden with a stone bench to the left of the backyard. Bring her back there, and tell her everything you just told me. Pull this ring out and tell her you promise your heart to her. Get your head out of your ass, quit being a puss and get that girl before somebody else does” As he finishes his sentence he pulls a comb from his pocket, slicking my hair back he kindly fixes it for me. I stand a bit shocked about this whole situation. He now adjusts the bow tie around my neck so I look like I never touched it in the first place “Go get that girl Zayn” he says, pointing down the street. I stand for a moment, before my feet kick in ignition and I’m running to the event.

~~~

Tying the gold mask around my head I enter the room casually. Men and woman in all sorts of colored gowns dance on the dance floor. I look around for Aubrey, luckily to find her staring straight at me.

*Aubrey’s P.O.V*

Finishing up a small piece of cheesecake I continue to watch the door waiting for Zayn to walk through. Throwing the plate away I turn away for a moment to look at the chocolate fountain and I stare one last time. Standing there, black tux, gold mask and handsome as hell. Zayn stands at the doorway; a smile grows widely on my face as I start walking towards him. He instantly notices me as he starts heading towards me as well.

*Zayn’s P.O.V*

Wow she is absolutely stunning. Her pink gown fits perfectly on her body. She looks elegant. Her hair sits in curls on her shoulders as golden flowers dangle along them. My heart almost stops just from the sight of her “Zayn” She says in barely a whisper, her mouth in a perfect smile. I will never forget this moment. “You look beautiful” I manage to say, pulling her hand to my mouth as I give it a light kiss “I thought you wouldn’t come” She says sadly “I said I would” I smile again, kissing her forehead “This next one is for the couples on the dance floor” the dj in the far back says into the microphone. A slow song starts to play as Aubrey takes my hand and leads me to the dance floor. Placing our hands in position we begin to slow dance to the music. She smells sweet of strawberries, she’s in my chest now and my head lays on hers. I could stay like this forever. As we dance I begin to notice that everyone has given us space as they make a circle around us, watching us dance. Everyone is in an awe expression as they continue to watch us. Miss. Jackson stands along the people as she smiles, almost as if she’s about to cry. Then I spot Rupert who nods slowly, I mentally thank him for earlier.

The song ends and we pull away from each other, kissing her forehead before we’re fully apart. Everyone begins to clap and make woo noises. Aubrey giggles as I pull her into me “Happy Birthday Aubrey!” Miss. Jackson calls and then everyone starts to cheer for her. I step away giving her some space, only to be pulled back as she lays her head on my chest. After a minute everyone stops and encloses the circle, music begins to play and everyone starts to dance again. Now’s my chance. I pull her by her hand “I want to show you something” I say as we head outside “O-Okay” She stutters as I pull her along. You can do this Zayn. Finding the path that Rupert had told me about, I walk along the stones until seeing the garden behind some bushes, and there’s the stone bench. As we approach it I pull my mask off; My stomach begins to get butterflies, my heart begins to race and my palms start to get sweaty. I almost consider turning back around until Rupert’s words echo in my mind “Get your head out of your ass, go get that girl”

Aubrey adjusts her dress before sitting on the stone, she looks up at me a glimmer in her eyes and the butterflies begin to form in my stomach again. I sit next to her, holding her hand in mine “What did you want to show me Zayn?” She asks quietly, she looks a bit nervous and I smile at how cute she is “I.. Wanted to give you your gift” I say a bit shaky. Gosh she looks so beautiful. I clear my throat before speaking “Aubrey.. “ and that’s when everything pours out, telling her my truest feelings. I leave out the part that I love her though; I want to save that for later. Pulling out the box and opening it I set it between us. Her face is in awe “Zayn..” I interrupt her quickly “I’m not asking for marriage, it’s a promise ring..” I reassure her. She eyes me still before looking down at the box and picking it up “It’s beautiful” she exclaims pulling it out “It was my grandmother’s..” reminiscing my grandmother’s long white hair and how special she was to me.

Aubrey stares at the ring a second longer before she’s pulling it out and smiling “My heart is yours Aubrey..” she looks at me through her lashes, the smile never leaving her mouth “Mine was yours from the very beginning..” She hushes before slipping the ring on her finger.
I almost jump for joy but luckily am able to keep myself together as I pull Aubrey into a passionate kiss. One in which you feel everything. Where nothing could feel as amazing as this. As we finish our foreheads touch as I stare into her blue eyes. Standing I hold out my hand to her “Want to get out of here?” She obliges with a smile and placing her hand in mine “I thought you’d never ask” We rush out of the garden, down the pathway and head for the side walk. Aubrey stares back at her party before she walks even closer to me. Finally making it to my bike I get on “Bunch your dress up babe” she does as I say before sitting behind me, wrapping her arms around my waist.

*Aubrey’s P.O.V*

~~~

The feeling of shock still runs through my body, I can’t believe he gave me a promise ring! He really does love me.. On the back of Zayn’s motorcycle I feel the wind in my hair; I feel so free. The sun begins to go down, the sky becoming a pretty pink and orange. I have no idea where we’re going until Zayn turns down a familiar dirt road. I instantly reminisce the first time he brought me here on our first date; this was where we also had our first kiss. Zayn parks at the end of the gravel, shutting off the ignition we hop off; grabbing my hand we start to walk down the path “You look very beautiful Aubrey” Zayn says to break our silence, I feel my cheeks warm but reply with “Thank you” We walk more in a silence for a minute longer until I ask “Why are we here Zayn?” He squeezes my hand, smiling wide “You’ll see” We continue to walk for another minute until on a small hill, there laid candles in a heart; a red blanket in the middle big enough for us to lie on. My mouth widens with joy “Zayn?” I smile up at him “I would have lit them but since no one was here it could start a fire” He chuckles lightly before he begin lighting them one by one.

I walk myself into the middle, sitting myself on the blanket and watch Zayn light the rest of the candles. Smoothing his pants out he sits down next to me, wrapping his arm around me “Happy birthday Aubrey” He whispers lightly into my ear, it’s so light it sends shivers down my spine. I lie my head on his shoulders, staring up at the stars. The warm air feels amazing on my skin; I remember the ring that is now on my finger. I look down at it, mesmerized at how beautiful it is. I can’t believe it. I come to realize that Zayn does love me; he wouldn’t do anything to hurt me. And come to think of it, I would spend the rest of my life with him. I.. I love him. “Zayn” I look up at him, wanting to tell him how I feel. He looks down at me; his piercing brown eyes look innocent; filled with love. And I can’t help myself, I have to kiss him. And that’s what I do; I kiss him passionately; feeling myself melt right into him. He’s taken aback for a second until his lips mold into mine, pulling me closer; deepening our kiss. Pulling apart, we rest our foreheads against each other; his breath smells light of mint and cigarettes. His usual scent that I could get used too.

I begin to feel my body rush with lust and I feel in this moment that I need him. I kiss him passionately once more, this time Zayn’s hand is on my face before he’s laying me down; his body hovering over me. He continues kissing me, running his hand along my body and I feel everything with him; I feel love. I pull on his jacket, getting him as close to me as he can get “Zayn” I say breathlessly. He looks down at me with innocent eyes, he licks his lip and I can’t help but quiver “Yes baby?” He hushes, pushing hair behind my ear “I.. I want you to take me home”
