Jessa Malik Chapter 1

"I don't believe he's your brother," the girl said snidily, "Not for one second,"
I was sick of people not believing that Zayn was my brother. I tried to think of ways to prove it. I knew I couldn't really call him. I didn't want to bother him over something like this and I didn't want him thinking that I would care if a stupid fangirl believed that he was my brother or not. I wasn't entirely sure why it did bother me; but I had to say something now I'd started it. The girls still stared at me like a was a lying bitch trying to make up stories about being Zayn's sister because I was some obsessed fan that didn't have a life. That did it.
"Zayn is nineteen years old, he was born on the 12th of January 1993, three years before me. His full name is Zayn Jawaard Malik. His real name is spelt Z-A-I-N but he prefers it spelt Z-A-Y-N. Zayn means beautiful in Arabic. He's muslim and proud. He's 5'9 and grew up in Bradford," I guessed plenty of fans knew that about him. The girls still looked at me suspiciously, but I didn't stop there,
"His favourite colours blue and he smokes even though he's trying to stop. He's shy with new people and in interviews because he's scared he'll mess up. He got thrown out of two schools because of fighting. He carries a mirror with him at all times and is SO vain. He's got a habit of biting his bottom lip when he's nervous or hiding something. He felt a bit of an outcast when the band started but now they are so close it's unbelievable. He has three tatoos, a yin yang sign, our Grandpa's name in Arabic and 'Born Lucky' in Chinese, although the first tatoo he ever had got infected for two weeks," I supposed that really dedicated fans would know all that too so I could tell the girls still didn't believe me. I had to resort to telling them things only really close people to him knew,
"Zayn used to eat paper all the time when he was young and he can't sleep with the door open. He's had his ear pierced like seven times now. His favourite books are the Harry Potter books and he once won an award for playing the triangle at school. He went to Lower Fields Primary and Tongs High School. He loved English, Art and Drama at school and if he wasn't in the band then he'd probably be an English teacher, even though he used to model for some small agencies round Bradford before. He applied for the xfactor a year ealier but chickened out on the day. He's easily the tidiest out of the band and always brushes his teeth before a concert. His favourite artists are Chris Brown and Justin Timberlake. He has an iPhone and can't swim. His secret talent is drawing. He once bought me Justin Beiber concert tickets and is very protective of me. He's a protective boyfriend too and gets jealous easily. He likes girls with long dark brown hair and prefers curvy too skinny any day, he would date a fan, model or a normal girl. He falls hard if he likes a girl. He isn't a fan of rollercoasters and he doesn't like liars. I know this because he's my big brother and I love him to bits," I stopped there; I was satisfied with the astonished looks the girls faces. I couldn't fight the smile that curled at the corner of my mouth as they gushed,
"OMG, can you get him to come here now, can we see him, OMG!" I just laughed, turned on my heel and walked away leaving one of them hyperventilating and the other screaming "Oh my god, oh my god," over and over again.
I didn't want to be known as Zayn Malik's sister, I didn't want to be known just because of him. But I had to be honest and admit that I was more than happy my brother was 'famous' although it was often hard to think of it like that.
