Zayn Malik's Long Lost Sister (Unedited)

37. Zayn & Donnie

The screen lit up with Edward's handsome face.

"Hello, gorgeous." Edward greets.

"Hey-"

"Someone wants to say hi, hold on." He sighs, the image going in to a blur before a small familiar face is seen.

"Hi, Riley." I smile. "How are you?"

"Hey, Marley. And I'm good. Where is your brother?" The little boy asks me.

"Sitting on the bed." I say, turning my attention to Zayn and wheeling out of the way. "He's been annoying me all day."

"Well, I like him even more now."

My eyebrows pulled together. "What-?"

"It's what brothers are supposed to do. It's why I treat Grace the way I do. Because if I didn't, how will she know that I love her?" His smile was adorable.

"Well, than Zayn is doing a spectacular job at being an older brother." I say with a shake of my head. "I guess he loves me more than he says."

"Edward is too good for loving us."

"That's not true." I say in defense.

"It is-" Riley begins, but Edward cuts him off quietly.

"Is not. I love you all."

"But you say Marley will some day have all your-" Riley was interrupted again.

"Be quiet." Edward hushed.

"Oh, you don't want her to know?" Riley slyly wiggles his eyebrows before turning back to the screen. "Guess what Edward says about you, Marley."

"I, uh..." My cheeks flamed as Zayn laughed behind me.

"I love this kid!" My brother shouts.

Riley noticeably starts walking away from Edward saying, "He says, 'Marley's so cute, I just wanna eat her up'-"

"Give me that, you little saint!" Edward shouts, snatching his phone back. "I can't believe you."

"Just wait, I haven't told her everything I wanted to yet!" Riley says, running in to the crowd.

"Just don't listen to him." Edward sighs. "He's got this thought in his head that no one loves him. And, I've never said that."

"Dammit, he's good looking..." I hear Zayn say from behind me. "Are you in love with my sister?" Zayn asks, just behind my right shoulder. His face lowers down so he's taking up the space just to the side of my head.

"I assume you must be Zayn?" Edward questions.

"Your assumptions are correct. Answer my question." Zayn says.

"You don't have to answer it." I sigh, rubbing my left shoulder. I think I hit it on something.

"Yes, he does."

"No, he doesn't."

"Don't listen to her." Zayn says, waving his hand in my direction as a dismiss.

"No, don't listen to him. He's just being a brother." I say, smacking his hand down.

"And I see that you two are starting the 'sibling love' right." Edward chuckles.

"I swear I've seen you before." Zayn says, his eyes squinting. "Have we met?"

"This is my first time meeting you." Edward says, his face confused but his voice is sure.

"Okay, must just be seeing things, then. Can I ask you something?"
