ZLS Chapter 7 -- Drumming Love


“What we gonna do tonight?” Jane asked me as my enter my room. I sigh and sitting on my bed, take off  my shoes.
“I don’t know”
“I just bought some DVDs and I think Ash and the others will come around tonight” She said as I enter bathroom, I wash my face and my hand.
“my friend invited me to come to One Direction’s gig tonight!” I walk off to my bed and like what I thought before, Jane get shocked. She get up from bed and sat on it. She can’t take off her eyes of me.
“and would you come?” she’s waiting my answer unpatiently.
“I really want, but --- “
“can I come with you?” she cut my sentence. “pleaseeeee!” she begged at me. I turn my head and face her.
“Jane, I have something to tell you” I said and suddenly I got nervous. I find my words to tell her the whole story, but I don’t know what I have to tell her from.

“go ahead!” she said and look me in the eyes. Her face turn to be serious. “Is everything alright? You look so nervous!”
“yeah, everything is great” I inhaled
“tell me whats goin on”
“well – this is about the ‘Z’ guy. He invited to come to One Direction’s gig” I told and stop.
“is the a boy directioner?” Jane asked and I shook my head
“he’s one of the lads in the band” I said and shoot to the main point. Jane get shocked once more. She cover her mouth with her hand and her eyes get wide. I bit my lip, don’t know what I’m gonna do. Jane looks like trying to calm herself down so we can continue this chat.
“is he Zayn?” Jane asked me, still in her shocked face. I nodded. “OH MY GOD! Why you haven’t tell me about this big and great news first? Why you’re telling me now?”
“I know and I’m sorry about that” I’m feeling so guilty when she said that. “I don’t know why I keep it quite, I was thinking that I’m not ready to see how everyone would react to me if they know I’m quite close with him”
“but I’m not that everyone. I’m your lovely and beautiful cousin” Jane said and I chuckled.
“I know you so well. You’re the loud one. I’m just afraid if you slipped out”
“why you have to afraid about that? You never complain about it before”
“because he’s famous. I don’t want to do anything that can disturb his job, I mean until now we’re just a good friend and I don’t want to there’s any rumours that can disturb him. Maybe that’s one of the reason I didn’t tell anyone about me and Zayn” I explained her. Jane nodded and smiled
“I guess Zayn and you is more than a good friend” Jane exclaimed. I rolled my eyes and stand up
“for now, we’re just a good friend” I walk to my wardrobe and changed my clothes. Today I have to come to my grandad’s studio. I’m going to teach drum to Alex, Jeremy and Tom. I teach about 6 students in there, which is devided into two section each 2 hours. So, I’ll be a drum teacher about 4 hours.
“where are you going to?” Jane asked still laying in my bed and texting Andrew, I guess.
“Grandad’s studio” I answered and sat on the bed, put my shoes on.
“hmm ... how about tonight then?”
“I’ll call you later, I almost late!” I take my phone and my bag and walk off to the door. “I’m going now, bye!”
“yeah .. bye!”
“Oh wait!” I turn to her once more. “Don’t touch anything here or make it mess. If it happen, I’m gonna kick you out the window!” I added.
“I won’t do anything if you take me to One Direction’s gig tonight” she said and I leave my room and walk to downstairs.
“where are you going, honey?” my nan asked me from the living room
“Studio. Did you forget, I’m a drum teacher on every Saturday!” I smiled and kiss her on the cheek.
“oh yeah, take care!” she said and I nodded. I leave the house and drove off to the studio, I drive by myself by the way :D


     It’s only took about 30 minutes to the studio by the car. The studio is quite huge, there many rooms on it. There a huge hall, several rooms for students to practice. It isn’t a music academy or music school. It just a studio, a place that my grandad spent the most, making music, practice, teaching and many more. But there’s some people who want to learning music instruments in here, so my grandad opened some classes for public to learning some music instruments. There’re many musicians who has worked with my grandad and some of them are teaching for some music instruments. I teach drum but also sometimes I teach piano to replace Mr. Bramwell if he couldn’t come to the class that day. I have been working here about 2 months and I’ve got loads of fun working here. I met loads of talented musicians in here and I’m so happy for that cause I’ve got new friends and new experience.

To : Z
I’ve arrived in London :)

I texted Zayn as I park my car in front of the studio. I almost forgot to text him, cause he had asked me to text him when I arrived.

From : Z
Great! Can’t wait to meet u! ;) xxx

To : Z
Me too. But I’ve something to do right now. Text you later! :) x

From : Z
Have fun! Catch u soon! ;) xXxx

I smile and get out of the car and enter the studio. I saw Jeremy and Alex are already there, sitting in the waiting seat and smile as they catch me.

“hey buddies!” I smile as approach them and give them a free hug. “how are you?”
“very well, thanks. How about you beautiful teacher?” Jeremy asked me as I sitting between them. Jeremy, Alex and Tom are in different ages, they’re about 10 years old.
“I’m really good” I answered and smile
“you look so gorgeous today, as usual” Alex added and smile at me. They’re really cute boys
I blushed, “thank you sweetie, you are two are handsome today!” I said and wrapped my arms on their shoulder. “where’s Tom?”
“he is on the way I think”            

     We’re waiting for Tom about 10 minutes. We’re start the class and play some chords. They’re so young, but they have the talent in playing drum. We have meeting only 2 hours every Saturday, but their progress is quite good. I love my students, cause I’ve got a loads of fun when I’m with them. I don’t have a younger brother or sister, so that why I love kids a lots.  We just finished the class after they played a song from Green Day, which was great. My phone vibrated ..

From : Z
Meet me in Starbuck an hours ago! ;) xx

I have one more class left, I could go anywhere. I’ll stay here until about 3 pm. Thats why sometimes I forget my lunch every Saturday. I got a lot of fun when it comes from drum, so sometimes I can forget anything in the real life.

To : Z
I can’t. Sorry! :( x

From : Z
Why? Xx

To : Z
I’ve one class left to teach, I’ll finished it around 3 pm

From : Z
How about your lunch?

To : Z
I’ll grab my lunch as I finished my class ;)

From : Z
It’s too late for lunch. I’ll go get you something for lunch. Send me the address of your workplace! Xx

To : Z
Are u serious?

From : Z
100% ! send me the address. I’m going to get there around 30 minutes maybe ;) xX

I smiled and send him the address of the studio. I don’t know what I’m feeling now, but I’m so happy. I can’t keep my smile off of my face.

“why are you smiling like that? Are you crazy?” Lucy asked me and broke my thought. I shook my head
“nothing!” I answered her still smiling. “I’m going to class now”

     My second class is starting. This class is also concist of 3 student, they’re Toby, James and Sandra. Sandra is the only girl in my class, so I’m really happy for that. Cause most of girls take piano or violin class than drum. So I’m massively excited when I found out there’s a girl in my class.
They’re a bit older than Alex, Jeremy and Tom. Toby is 12 yo, James is 13 yo and Sandra is 12 yo. Like my class before, Toby, Sandra and James also have a good progress of playing drum. They’re so talented and it’s easy to teach all of them. I asked them to play Ignorance by Paramore and they’re did it well. Honestly, I’m so proud of all of my students.

From : Z
I’m in outside the studio. Take me inside maybe ;D xx

I smiled as I opened the new message from Zayn.

“okey guys, gimme 5 minutes to meet my friend outside. I’ll be back soon!” I exclaimed and they’re nodded.

     I walk off to the outside and I smilied as I saw Zayn is standing there, holding a plastic bag. I bet, that’s a foods like he have said that he’ll bring me some foods for lunch. He smile back at me as he saw me out of the door. His smile is the best smile I ever seen. He pulled me into a hug as I stand in front of him.

“so busy, huh?” he asked as he realased his hug and face me. I chuckled
“but not as busy as you” I said with smile. I really love every moment when I’m around Zayn
“of course! I’m extremely busy, but no matter how busy I am, I always have a time to meet you” he said with a cute smile. I know, my face is turn to red right now. “I love when you’re blushing” he added and pinched my cheek, I blushed even more. “here”, he said and handed me the plastic bag that he brought. “don’t let your stomatch eaten by itself” he said and I giggle.
“ thank you sir” I said and laughed. “let’s come inside. My students is waiting for me!” . 

     We entered the studio and most of the people in the studio looking at us. I saw Lucy’s mouth dropped and I walk to Lucy’s desk and Zayn followed behind me.

“Lucy, can I take my friend to the class?” I asked her and she just looking at me without say anything. “hey Lucy!” I waving my hand in front of her face and I heard Zayn chuckled behind me.
“oh yeah!” she said dan akhirnya sadar juga dari lamunan panjangnya. “can I help you?”
I sigh, “yeah, can I take my friend to the class?”
“sure, you can!” she answered and I thank her. Zayn and I walk off to the class and meet my students.

“hey guys, I’m back!” I exclaimed and put on the plastic bag in my desk. “Do you mind if I bring my friend to the class today?” I added and glanced at Zayn. He stood next to me and give my students his best smile.
“oh my God!” Sandra get shocked and stand up. “are you Zayn Malik from One Direction?” she asked and Zayn nodded.
“yes I am” he answered and smile
“I can’t believe I can meet you. I’m your fan!” she said and still standing there.
“you can take a photo with him after class, okay?” I said to her and she nodded. 

We started the classes again, we have about 30 minutes remaining.  Zayn’s sitting on my chair and he keep stared at me during the class which made me so blush.

“okay guys! See you next Saturday and keep practicing at home” I said as the class’ over. James and Toby are leaving the class and Sandra come to Zayn and me.
“errmm ... can I take a picture with you Zayn?” she asked Zayn and he nodded
“sure”
“come on, I’ll take it for you San!” I take her phone and take her picture and Zayn. They both are so cute. I handed her phone back as I’ve got the best  angle of the photo.
“thank you, Nessa. I love you!” she said to me and kiss me in the cheek.
“anytime sweetie!” I said and hugged her. “I love you too” I added
“and I love you Zayn!” she said, looks so shy. I giggle
“I love you too beautiful” Zayn said and Sandra leaving the class. Zayn keep staring at me and smile.
“why are you always stared  at me like that?” I asked and he chuckled
“you’re beautiful” he said as I chewed the pizza that he just bought. I blushed of what he just said. “you’re blushing” he leaning down to look me in the eyes. I’m trying to hold my laugh.
“so stop doing this to me!” I said
“I won’t!” he stick out his tongue. “so, will you come to the gig tonight?” he asked and his face turn to serious a little bit. I stopped chewing and look at him in the eyes.
