Lets Try Again(A Zayn Malik Story)

I do get emotional

Zayns pov
Everyone has taken their girls & families out.I have no idea where they went but I do know none of us will be at the same restaurant.

"I hungey."Amina said,claiming on my lap."Alright lets go find some food."I picker her up carrying her down stairs."Apple slices,crisp,turkey meat,cookies-"

"Cookies pwease?"I looked at her,my daughter is my weakness.

"Alright,one."She kissed my cheeked,I swear she knows what she's doing."Tank you."

"You're welcome baby."



We laid on the bed playing a game on my iPad.Elena is taking a lifetime to get ready."Did you really give her a cookie?"Lena walked in with her boots in her hand."She was hungry.Plus you were taking a long time."

"Yah,I hungey daddy gave me cookie."
"I see,ready?"

"We've been ready."



"Puppy!"Amina squealed in my arms,we saw a furry white puppy in the pet store."I see,I think mummy should let us get one."

Amina looked at Elena."I will think about it."Mina was satisfied with that answer,I'll have to convince her.




Neither of us are big on fancy restaurants but I found a nice ,kid friendly."Cake!"Amina pointed out on the dessert menu."If you eat your veggies,ill order one."I said,Mina intertwined our fingers."Okay."

"She is such a daddies girl."Elena smiled at us.I can't help but think about all the bullshit we've been through this year.A lot of mistakes on my part,especially with Kinsley.I still cringe for not protecting my daughter.That will never happen again for number of reasons.One main important reason Elena & I will never break up again,whatever we go through we will be okay.If we do argue ,she will go to one side of the house& I'll go to the other NO calling it quits."Baby?"

"Mm?"I zoned out for whole I guess."You okay?"

"Yeah just thinking."I stole one of Mina's chicken fingers."Good or bad?"I finished eating my food."Good,happy to be out with my family.No interruption,cameras flashing left &right.Us together."

"I love it,I think Mina does too."She wasn't even paying attention."I can get use to this for awhile.Also with you helping me."She winked at me."I done-"

"So am I,we both want some cake."Amina flashed that sneaky grin.I order them a chocolate cake,this is what makes me happy."Is everyone coming to Bradford for Christmas ?"I asked.

"Just me,you & pebbles,we will see Esme before her & everyone else goes to Dublin."

"First Christmas without her?"
"Yeah,something new ."

"We can go with them if you want,last thing I want is for you to be away from your family as well."

Esme,Jaslyne,Marci,Keeva &Tavi are all Elena have on her dads side."I have my family,my dads sister said she will stop by."

"That's perfect babe."

"I have to admit I do get emotional during Christmas.So be prepared for the tears buddy."I fed Amina piece of cake."I hate seeing you cry but you know Im here babe."

"I know."
"All gone?"My baby looks disappointed but she's not getting anymore sweets."Yup,it's all in your tummy sweetie."Amina giggled her way onto my lap."Ready?"
"Yup."



When we got back,Elena went to get pebbles ready for bed.Im in the kitchen talking to Liam,they are the only ones here."I think I want to propose to Elena."

"You think or you know?"
"I know,this year has been hectic not at all the easiest."

"I know how you feel."

"You want to ask Dani?"This is the first time I heard about this from him."Absolutely but it's different from her & I,no baby in the mix.Make sure you're doing for the right reasons not just because you have Amina."

"I want to spend the rest of my life with her.She knows me the best minus all of the fame."

"I agree,Elena can look at you & speak what you want to say.Really freaky."I laughed but its true."When do you want to pop the question?"

"Christmas,her dads sister will be there so something special."

"Ring picked out?"

"It's actually a promise ring my dad gave my mum."

"The girls are going to go mental."

"You all-","Hey,coming to bed?"Lena said,wearing one of my long shirts the met right above her knee."Yah,night mate."Liam smiled at me."Night you two,kiss Mina for me."

"Will do."

I held Elena from behind,giving her little kisses on her neck.We walked into our room Amina sleeping right in the middle of the bed.Once I changed,I joined her & Lena ."Thank you for our date tonight."We rested our hands on Mina's back,she was facing me."No problem."
.
"You alright ?"
"Yeah just tired."I heard Elena giggle."Go to sleep baby,I love you."
"I love you too."
