Touch (Z.S) (Rewriting)

Chapter 20.

The next morning, I had the worst headache in history of all headaches but that didn't stop me from comforting my sobbing best friend. I took some asprin anyways. He was crying all night yesterday and right when he woke up, he started crying again. It hurt seeing him like this but I knew better than to let myself cry with him.

I hold him in my arms, my chest getting wet from his tears. I rub his back slowly, kissing the top of his head. "Don't worry Niall, all couples get into arguements here and there... he'll come around, just give him time to cool down..." my tone is gentle with him. Everything would make him cry. I brought him up a banana because we ran out of apples and he started sobbing uncontrollably. I've never seen him this unstable in a long time.

"Look, how do you feel about baking? Wanna do that?" I suggest

Before Niall starts crying even more I say, "Actually, lets watch a movie and eat ice cream. I'll make some cookies."

Niall nods and sits up, wiping his wet face. I look at my drenched shirt and take it off right away then replace it with another t-shirt. I pick up Niall from my bed, carrying him off to the living room. I set him down on the couch, setting up the TV so it was on netflix. I ruffle Niall's hair before running to the kitchen. First, I get a tub of ice cream for Niall then I get right right into baking the chocolate chip cookies.

"Choose any movie you want!" I yell from the kitchen which wasn't too far, actually. Why did I yell like the kitchen was a mile away from the living room?

I'm rolling the cookie dough into small balls when I hear a sad sounding song playing. Niall's watching the Titanic isn't he? I run to the living room and quickly go back. "Niall not a sad movie! It's gonna make you feel even more sad!" I frown. I look through the movies until I come across The Interview. "There, that one's funny. I'll be here soon, Ni." I wipe his face again then quickly kiss his cheek. I skip back to the kitchen, rolling the dough into balls onto the cookie tray as fast as I could.

That didn't take me too long so after I put the tray in the oven, I ran to sit beside Niall. Right away, I wrapped my arms around him. He sniffles and I watch as he takes spoonfuls of chocolate ice cream into his mouth. I look back up at the TV screen and every here and there I would hear Niall giggle. This was a really funny movie and with Niall being a laughaholic, I knew that this movie might cheer him up. I smile everytime I hear him giggling.

I have to get up for a second to take the cookies out of the oven then put them on a plate. They were hot so I wait a minute before carrying the plate back to the living room and setting it down on the coffee table. "Don't eat them right away, they're still really hot" I warn Niall. He nods and lays his head down on my lap when I sit down.

A couple minutes later, I decide to take a cookie and try it. I bite into it, smiling in satisfaction. Not bad. I grab another one and give it to Niall. Niall simply smiles and bites into it. A basically moans which makes me feel proud.

"Where'd you learn to bake like this Harry?" he shoves the cookie down his throat

"I used to be a baker" I grin

...

Niall was passed out on my lap, chocolate all over his face and cookie crumbs on his body. I shut off the TV, stretching my arms. Was I stuck here till he woke up? Hopefully I can get up without waking him... It's worth shot.

I lift his head from my lap, moving my body carefully. Luckily, I successfully move from the couch and Niall was still asleep. I scoop him up in my arms, carrying him to his room. I chuckle at his chocolate covered face and set him on the bed. After I tuck him in, I wipe his face clean then leave a kiss on his forehead. Then I silently leave his room, stretching my arms.

Well, now that he's asleep, what do I do? I take my phone and lay on my bed.

To Zayn!: Zayn!!!

From Zayn!: Yes Harry??

To Zayn!: How are you?xx

From Zayn!: fine babe. You alone?

To Zayn!: kind of I guess??... Why?xx

From Zayn!: send nudes? ;)

My cheeks flush and I stare at my phone sceen in confusion. Was he being serious? My thumbs rest on the keyboard, not sure of what to type. What if he is being serious and I don't send anything? What if I send something and he's not being serious?

To Zayn!: ZAYN

From Zayn!: what?

To Zayn: I'm taking care of Niall, I'd rather not be horny while i'm making sure he's okay.xx

From Zayn: fine, I'll just come over at night to see you in person babe ;) good luck with Niall. P.S. if you could possibly be naked before I get there, that'd be even better. xxx

I roll my eyes and don't reply after that, a smile on my face. I still didn't know if he was being serious but if he does come over tonight, I'll be dressed in my pajamas. I yawn and lay in bed, my hands resting on my stomach. I wonder how long Ashton and Niall are going to take this break. How long are they going to last in general? I had a feeling they'd last at least half a year but anything could happen...

Then I start to think of Liam and Ashton. First thing that comes to mind is: PLOT TWIST Ashton and Liam end up dating. I chuckle to myself but then I start to feel bad for laughing when I shouldn't be. My friend was heart broken and I was making a joke out of it. I felt like a pretty bad friend now. First I cause Niall and Ashton to fight then I have a laugh over this? I'm messed up...

In all honesty, I saw that Ashton did like Niall and Niall liked him. Ashton was a great boyfriend too. He was caring, protective, funny... However, part of me kept hoping Liam would somehow magically end up with Niall. Liam was successful, smart, kind, good looking. He was the whole package! But I have to put Niall's happiness before mine so if he's happy with Ashton, I just have to get over it.

I lay there, staring at my window for a long time. Suddenly, I hear my door creak open and footsteps come closer. I turn back to see a tired looking Niall. His eyes are blood shot and his cheeks are red. He doesn't even have to say anything, I just nod and he gets in bed with me. I pull his body close to mine and he almost instantly fell back asleep. I sigh. "I'm sorry Niall.." I mumble. After that, I close my eyes and try to fall asleep along with him.

...

...

Ooo what do you think is gonna happen with Niall and Ashton? Do you think they're gonna go their seperate ways or get back together?

Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, it was more of a filler... Thanks for reading!xx
