Zayn’s POV

The wind blew through Jessa’s long curls as we rode down the hills. She always took the lead when were skating down hill.

“Follow me?” He asked looking at us while we nodded.

She smiled and swerved before turning onto a dead end street. I followed close behind her and rode close to the groud. Down the empty street, we came to an abandoned building. We got off our boards and sat on the steps.

“Whoa, it’s nice here.” Harry was still standing while he admired the buildings.

“Yea, my brother and I used to campout over here. It’s been abandoned since the ‘70’s.” She leaned back on her elbows.

“I’m gonna go on a walk.” I already knew what Harry was doing when he said that.

“Bye.” I waved him off.

“Call if you get lost.” She chuckled watching him leave. “So what now?” She asked looking at me.

Great, now I have to do it. Fuckin’ Harry and his stupid dares.

Jess’a POV

“Bye.” Zayn fidgeted as Harry turned away.

“Call if you get lost.” I laughed knowing he was leaving so Zayn and I could talk. “So what now?”

“Let’s go skate.” Good save from the awkward silence.

“Okay.” I stood up and reached down to help him.

I led him down to the libraryswerving down the road. Zayn was doing the same until he hit a divider and flew off his board.

“Zayn!” I yelled jumping off mine to check on him.

I knelt down next to him while he laid on his back in the middle of the road, panting. He took a deep breath and looked at me.

“Are you okay?” I looked into his eyes as he nodded. “You sure?”

“Yea.” He mumbled standing up.

I watched him wipe his jeans. He already had a bruise forming on his wrist but he seemed fine.

“Can we talk about something?” He asked nervously.

“Sure.” I shrugged getting comfy.

“What’d your dad say when Vic told on you?” He wasn’t being straight with me but whatever.

“Just to be careful and that I’ll make my own mistakes. He acted really weird about it.” I looked up at him. “Why is that important?”

“Because I really like you and I don’t want to be a mistake.” He spoke quickly but I caught every word.

“I like you too.” I made his stop rambling.

“Really?” He looked shocked.

I cupped his cheeks before pressing my lips to his. He quickly kissed me back. When we pulled back, our eyes landed on each other.

“Whoa.” He breathed out. “I didn't think you would since you barely know me.”

“What happened to the cocky new kid I met a couple weeks ago?” I giggled letting go of his cheek. “And yea, well, I do.”

He chuckled before kissing my cheek. I rested my head on his shoulder and slipped my arm around his.

“What now?” He asked shyly.

“Now we get to know each other until we decide to date.” I mumbled looking at the sunset.

“I already know my decision.”

“Me too…” I smiled at my words but knew I had to wait for my dad and the guys to meet him. “But let’s give it a few days just incase you change your mind.” In translation: you have to be approved of first.

“Okay.” He didn't seem to mind. “We should probably start going back."

I nodded and stood up before reaching down to help him up. He stood with a sigh. I smiled as him as his arms snaked around my waist. He pulled me closer and we shared our first real kiss.

Notes
