A few things before you read:
1. This OS can be a stand alone OS or considered a continuation to my OS: Cry Me a River
2. This is set after Asad and Zoya are past tolerating each other and now begin to understand each other.
3. This OS is dedicated to my Zayn Malik loving soul sister Dippy aka "AussieChick" and I hope you like it love! Lol!
Let Me Love You
Zoya came downstairs for breakfast to see that no one was there.
"No one's home," she heard Jahapana call out from his room as he walked into the room in his casuals.
"I think the house speaks for itself," she giggled.
She got up and began making her coffee only to be joined by him. "Should I make you one too?"
"That'd be nice," he replied shuffling through the cabinets.
"Aren't you going to work today?" She asked noticing he wasn't in his usual suit and tie.
"Nope,"
"Oh, alright," she continued making the coffee.
"You know you could ask 'why?', in your words 'Koi punishment nahi hai'," he stated getting a chuckle out of her.
"Alright then why?" she asked adding in the two spoons of sugar she knew he drank.
"Because..." he finally fished something out of the cabinet, "I'm babysitting you today."
"Babysitting me? Why? I can take care of myself Mr. Khan!" She argued.
Yes she could, and he knew how well she did. Otherwise someone who's been through a cheating boyfriend whom they genuinely loved, would have been a living corpse.
She was strong.
"Hello! Mr. Khan?"
"Well, yes we all know how wonderful you can take care of yourself. That's why we've had let me count 4? No 5 near death experiences," he reminded her of the times she got herself in trouble.
But they were nothing compared to what she's been through.
For a girl he's hated since the first time he met her, she's grown on him quite a bit. Becoming almost a habit.
"So you're saying if I stay at home alone someone's going to come in a kill m..." she was stopped by his hand pressed against her lips.
Failing to find words to describe his action he just let go and spread some cream cheese on his bagel. "Want one?"
"That'd be nice," she reiterated his earlier response getting a smile out of him.
Good lord, she had never thought the day would come when she and Mr. Khan urf Jahapana would have a decent conversation let alone share a few chuckles and smiles.
But the way he's been for the past few weeks showed her that he had changed some of his ways, for the better of course.
He wasn't all that bad. Just a little too traditional is all. She could deal with that as long as that annoying typical Indian mentality was out, which it was.
He was a nice man, and he'd become something similar to a habit.
"So.. er... I think it was really great the way you dealt with that two timing turd."
"What?"
"Let's just say I'm a magical human being who knows everything and somehow I know about a certain leech you dated."
"I... you... how..." and then an epiphany struck her, "You read my diary didn't you!"
She got up from her seat to make it seem more dramatic.
"Well I mean some of your laundry was mixed with mine by mistake and it was right there on your bedside when I came return your clothes. Oh come on it had "Zoya's Diary" written in big letters on top of it, I gave into the temptation."
"Allah miyan! I am going to get back at you for this!" She threw a handful of cornflakes at him!
Dodging them, he caught her hand, "Wait so this means you're not mad?"
"No, don't worry about it. I hardly write in it anyways, as you may have noticed there were only about 2-3 entries 'cause I use as a place to vent. And I haven't had that many extreme 'talk to the finger' moments in my life so yeah, it's cool. I was actually planning on writing in it yesterday which is why it was out but then sleep overpowered,"
"And sleep wins every battle as we know," he completed for her sipping his coffee, "So why you were planning on writing in it yesterday? I believe you were pretty happy, was there a 'talk to the finger' moment I missed?"
"No, actually it was going to be my first happy entry."
He didn't bother asking her what it was going to be about because some things were better left unsaid.
"Well anyways, I just want you to know the way you dealt with everything was admirable. And I loved how you got your drama on and scared the shit out of him, and smearing the ashes of the roses he gave you was genius."
"Thanks," she said not knowing how to reply.
He read the confusion in her voice as hurt.
"Hey if it makes you feel better, I've been through it too,"
"YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND!"
"I tell you I've been through something like that and all you get out of that is that I... you make me wonder Zoya you really do," he laughed.
"Alright let me try to be a bit more sensitive," she said clearing her throat, "Oh you poor thing, YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND?"
He couldn't help but laugh, she was adorable.
"Not a girlfriend. We were engaged, I proposed to her thinking she was the one. I admired everything about her, even the things she didn't like about her. But turned out she was just in it for the money. She wasn't cheating like your scumback ex but she didn't love me and that's all it took for me to end it right then and there."
"So that's why you don't believe in love..." She had a Eureka moment, "But from the way you described it you seemed to really love her, for all the right reasons. And with that love and protection, and just that overall feeling of home that a girl wants in a guy's arms, it's a shame you gave up on love after her," she expressed her grief.
"Well you know about my mom's life, but I refused to let go of faith in love and than my own 'love' turned out to be a gold digger. So I guess it was natural for me to give up," he explained as he saw her understanding face, "But then again, after seeing how you dealt with your issues it makes me want to believe in the possibility of 'true love' being out there again," he placed his hand on top of hers.
"Well I'm glad I proved to be of some help," she caressed his hand with her thumb.
There was something about that moment; the time, the words, them...
Something which compelled them both to ask at the same time, "So do you think you'll ever love someone again?"
Upon realizing that they were both wondering the same question, the two couldn't help but laugh.
"Great minds think alike," she stated to ease the awkwardness as they both began to wonder their answers to the question.
Her eyes fell on their hands which were neatly placed one on top of the other and she looked up at him when she felt him picking her hand up,
"I believe things happen for a reason and if my first wasn't meant for me, than she wasn't my first," he said looking into her deep brown eyes.
They both knew that he didn't stay home to babysit her.
They both knew what they were headed for, and contrary to what Asad thought she'd do, Zoya didn't bother stopping it.
Rather she got up taking their hands which were now intertwined and helped him up.
"I believe that too," she said before she wrapped her arms around his neck and met him with a kiss that was long overdue.
She felt him kiss back before she broke it and made herself comfortable in his arms, "You're my," she began
"...first and last love," He completed for her, "And as much as you annoy me, you've grown to be teach me things about myself and life as a whole that I probably would have never come to learn without you."
"We've fought it for a while," she continued.
"But sometimes you let it happen," he stroked her hair.
"Yesterday... I was going to write about you," she looked up into his eyes.
"Thank you Zoya,"
"For?"
"For letting me love you," he said before she surprised him with another kiss.
Caught my surprise Asad stumbled a bit backwards before finally regaining his balance, accidently hitting the radio.

"If I was your man,
Baby you'd,

Never worry about,
What I do..."
Hands still wrapped around his neck she looked past him and saw that he switched the radio on,
"May I have this dance?" He pressed his forehead on hers.
"You may," she replied with that mischievous glint in her eyes.
"You're the type of woman,
Deserve good things
Fistful of diamonds,
Hand full of rings..."
"Baby you're a star, I just want to show you, you are..." he sang along his eyes not leaving hers for a even a moment.

"You should let me love you," she continued as they slow danced to the rest of the song.

"...baby good love and protection,
Make me your selection,
Show you the way love's supposed to be.

Baby you should let me love you,
Love you,
Love you..."

I hope you liked it!
I added the leap of time and understanding so it wouldn't be random jump from Tom and Jerry to Romeo and Juliet because trust me I hate random-no-development jumps too.
Having the foundation of understanding, care, and concern I tried to keep the rest as "in character" as possible.
And so I hope it didn't seem too out of place and that you liked it at least a little :)
For all those happy-ending saps who wanted a part II to Cry Me a River I hope you guys are happy!
The song I used was "Let Me Love You" by Mario and its a really sweet song that I came across when I saw Zayn Malik's audition for the X-Factor and I've loved it since.
Here's the full version:
