You love running. It’s always been a stress reliever for you. Running gives you time to just think and get away even if it’s just for an hour or two. You’ve lived in London for about 6 months now and every morning you go out for a run. The exact same course everyday. You run through a residential area, then through the park and back to your flat. It was just like every other day. You got up, had a cup of tea and then left for your run. On your run you always passed this one house that you thought was absolutely gorgeous. You loved it. Today for some reason you found yourself admiring it more than usual. You actually stopped in front of it and examined it. Suddenly the shut of a door scared you out of your trance. You realized someone was coming out of the house. You couldn’t believe your eyes. It was Zayn Malik from One Direction. You were so embarrassed so you started to run off, just wanting to forget what just happened. Just as you started leaving you heard someone yell after you.
“Wait!”
You turned around and realized it was Zayn.“Is this really happening right now?” You thought as you walked back towards him.
“Umm. Hi.” You said a little nervously.
“Hey. I’m sorry, but I’ve noticed you running everyday past my house. Ummm. I know that sounds a bit strange. Wow. This sounded a lot better in my head.” He said while scratching the back of his head and looking at the ground. You smiled at his embarrassment.
“Hi, I’m (Y/N).” You said to try and break the awkwardness.
He looked up at you and your hand that you had put in front of you for him to shake.
“I’m Zayn.” He said shaking your hand.
“So, why did you end up stopping in front of my house today?”
“Well I’ve always noticed your house when I ran by. It’s gorgeous.”
“Well thank you. If you’d like to come by sometime I’ll show you around?”
“Wow. Really? You’d show a complete stranger around your house?”
“I think I can trust you.” Zayn said with a wink. “How about you come by tomorrow afternoon? Here put your number in my phone.”
He handed you his phone and you said your goodbyes. You finished your run and went back home. Later that night you got a text from Zayn and you two decided you’d come by around 2 tomorrow afternoon. You were really excited. You couldn’t decided if you were more excited about seeing the house or hanging out with Zayn. Technically you weren’t hanging out with Zayn though. He was just showing you his house.
“Don’t take things too far and get your hopes up (Y/N). He’s just showing you his house.” you said to yourself. The next morning you got up and did the same routine. You went for a run and this time when you ran by Zayn’s house he was outside and he waved.
“Can’t wait until this afternoon!” He yelled when you passed by.
“Me either!” You yelled and smiled.
When you got home you took a fast shower, did your make up and hair. You decided to wear your favorite pair of jeans and a cute blouse. You drove over to Zayn’s house.
“Wow. Weird seeing you in a car since you’re usually on foot.” He said with a laugh.You giggled and blushed a little bit.
“Come on inside.”
Zayn showed you around the entire house. The kitchen, living room, all the bedrooms, the backyard. Everywhere. He didn’t miss anything. He said he designed it himself, which you found kind of surprising. You were absolutely amazed by the house. It was beautiful and you loved it. You two had a cup of tea and sat in the dining room and just talked for hours.
“It’s a beautiful house, Zayn. You definitely did a good job with everything.”
“Thanks babe. I love this house. It’s just such a large house and it gets kind of lonely. It’d be nice to find someone to share it with.” He said looking a little sad.
“You’ll find someone Zayn. You’re handsome, funny, and you’re some girl’s dream guy. You’ll find her. She’ll be one lucky lady too.” You said rubbing his shoulder and giving him a reassuring smile.
He looked up at you and you couldn’t help but look into his mesmerizing brown eyes.
“Thanks (Y/N). You’ll find the perfect guy too. He’ll be a lucky lad. I promise you that.”
You blushed and you both continued talking and finished up your tea. You hadn’t even noticed that it was midnight you two had talked so much. You said your goodbyes and Zayn gave you a kiss on the cheek and you left. You couldn’t help but have feelings for Zayn. He was all you thought about that night. He seemed like your perfect guy, but it seemed like he had no interest.
You woke up the next morning and it was pouring down rain. You didn’t care though, you still went for your run. You ran past Zayn’s house and didn’t even give it a glance.
“(Y/N)!” You heard someone yell.
You turned around to see Zayn running out of his house in the rain after you. He came up to you and got extremely close.
“I’m sorry, but I need to do something that I’ve wanted to do since I laid eyes on you.”
He cupped your face in his hands and kissed you hard, but he was gentle at the same time. This was the perfect moment. Standing in the rain kissing the guy of your dreams. It all seemed too good to be true. Once you two parted Zayn placed his forehead to yours.
“(Y/N) you’re my perfect girl. I know that sounds crazy, but it’s true. You’re everything I could’ve ever wished for and more.”
You smiled and he hugged you closer and kissed your forehead. You and Zayn dated for 3 months before he asked you to move into his house with him. He seemed even more excited about it than you did, which seemed impossible. The day that you finally got all of your stuffed moved in you couldn’t help but smile at how amazing your life was and how lucky you were. Zayn came up behind you and wrapped his arms around your waist while placing a kiss on your neck. You turned so you were facing him and gave him a passionate kiss on the lips. You could feel him smile into the kiss.
“I told you you’d find the perfect girl to share this house with.”
“And you were absolutely right. Can’t believe she had been running past me all this time without me even knowing.” You laughed and kissed him again. You felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
