Louis' PoV

I went out with Liam to take pizza, and he hadn't stopped talking about Zayn , all of his projects and experiences he wanted to share with him since we walked out of home.

Sometimes i stopped to look at his lips moving with an absurd speed and making hundreds of words come out of them, accompanied by an enormous smile.

I would have wanted to ask him if he genuinely thought all those things and if he had realized what was happening at home between Zayn and Harry.

For me it was enough noticing how Harry's look was different from the usual.

It had been months since his eyes last sparkled like that and it had been months since the last time i saw him worrying about someone or something that wasn't his hair or his lyrics.

Since he'd made up with Zayn he'd literally reborned, and i couldn't understand if i was jealous or happy of seeing him like that again.

"Lou, would you mind if we stop by my mom's before going home?"
He diverted his glance from the street for a second to look at me
"She lives nearby the pizza place, it won't take long"
He kept talking quickly and smiling while driving. I seriosuly couldn't understand what was in his mind.

Did he became dumb or what?

"No problem. Can i ask why we need to stop there tho?"
I looked at him and almost regretted making that question when i saw his eyes shining and heard his answer.

"I took a puppy for Zayn"
He smiled while stopping the car at a red traffic light
"I know it's crazy, but he looks so upset lately and i wouldn't want him to think again about his answer to my proposal"

I sighed. He was screwed.

"Lee- I don't" I was stopped by him, talking again

"He often tells me how much he misses Boris now that it's not here anymore and how much company it was for him"

I saw his expression changing while remembering Zayn's speeches.

"Soon you'll move out and i won't always be at home when we'll be touring. I don't want him to be alone. A puppy would be a good distraction. Don't you think?"

He parked out of what i recognized was his mom's place and he turned at me, waiting for an answer.

I sighed again, giving up, and nodded.

"Yes, Liam. It's a very sweet thought"

Harry's PoV

I told Zayn i was going out for a walk, but i'd decided to stop on the swing in the garden at the last minute.

I hadn't rested well in days and i didn't feel like walking.

That day the sun was so high and it was hotter than what it was supposed to be during autumn.

I closed my eyes, enjoying the warmth that was caressing my face.

It was pleasant.

I started thinking of Zayn and the whole situation that had created lately.

I squeezed my fist, thinking of how that ring had turned him even more away from me, despite the promise we'd made.

I opened my eyes when i heard a car noise from the street and then saw Liam and Louis coming out.

I sat well and had to squeeze my eyes to realize what was in Payne's embrace, and i opened my mouth when i could finally see a little black nose between his arms.

Maybe now we had more than two people separating us.

Zayn's PoV

When i was done smoking, i turned what was left of the little roll of weed that made me company in the last half hour off on a canvas where i used to try the colors, and i stayed enchanted, looking at how the burn on the canvas became wider until it stopped.

I smiled at the strange figure it had made and put my hands in my hair.

I threw my head back, making it slightly dangling from the armrest of my adored leather sofa, loosing myself by enjoying the view i had from the window of the studio, distorted from my upside downed point of view.

The weather was beautiful that day, but, despite the strong sun, i could see some cloud, and, since my condition was bad in that moment, i could weirdly see them well, but they would also change their forms.

For a moment they transformed in birds.

While i was focused on the clouds i heard the door slamming against the wall.

I instantly got up and had to bring my hands on my head because it started hurting so bad that i felt like it was going to fall any second.

I raised my face while swearing in urdu and met a pair of black eyes, that were usually colored with a sweet chocolate brown.

"What the fuck is happening here?"

The voice echoed in my head, and i had to cover my ears, feeling them whistling.

I could only make a groan come out of my throat, and when i raised my face again towards Liam i noticed there was also Harry hiding behind him.

They both had a shocked look, and i think that i'd never wished for the ground under my feet to open and eat me like in that moment.

Heyy guys, how are you?

This is a very short chapter, but anyway, thoughts on the chapter? What do you think of Zayn? Is he being stupid or is he right having a bit of relax by his own? Did you expect this?
