New Year's Eve

It was New Year's Eve. You decided to walk around the city for a little bit before heading back to your house. Crowds were everywhere and the amount of space decreased between each body the further you traveled towards the center of the city.


"Ooof!" You exclaimed from connecting with a stranger, "Watch it!" You rub your arm.


"Oh, sorry! I didn't see you..." said the boy with dark brown hair and dark eyes. "You aren't hurt are you? I wasn't watching where I was going," he said, feeling very embarrassed.


"No, I'm perfectly fine thanks," you responded.


"Haha okay. Um, I'm Zayn, what's your name?" 


You introduced yourself politely.


"Nice to meet you. I accidentally lost my friends in that huge crowd over there and I'd rather not go back in there... Especially since it's so close to midnight. I know a secret hill that I used to go to with my family on New Years, want to come with me up there?"


 "Sure, I'd love to Zayn," you say excitedly.


On the hilltop, you and Zayn talk like crazy getting to know each other. You both really seemed to get along.


With three seconds left before the new year, you and Zayn lean in close and on the twelth chime he gave you a short but sweet kiss on the cheek.


"Make a wish too," he said, smiling into your eyes. 


Instead of telling him what your wish was, you just closed your eyes before opening them again and grinning at Zayn. 


You both then lay on the ground, looking up at the fireworks, feeling as happy as a child on Christmas, but even better. Four years later, your wish comes true when Zayn proposed to you on that same hill right as the next new year started.
