"LOOK LOOK LOOK!"

"I'm looking Liam I'm looking" Zayn chuckled

"OK LOOK! It's a coffee table... right?" Zayn nodded "But.. It's also... A FRIDGE! IMAGINE ALL THE ICE CREAM WE CAN STORE IN THERE!"

Zayn laughed and nodded "So you want it?"

"I don't know Zayn, do I? It's not like I've been trying to convince you to buy it for the past 10 minutes!"

"No need to be sarcastic"

"Don't ask stupid questions" Liam crossed his arms and Zayn shook his head

Liam woke up and saw Zayn sleeping on the couch across from the one he was sleeping on, the room was covered in photos. There were also a few CDs on the coffee table that they wanted to watch but got too tired and didn't

Liam sat up and stretched and got up, he walked towards the kitchen- making sure not to step on any of the photos on the floor. He looked around the fairly clean kitchen then his eyes landed on the ring

He pursed his lips and walked towards it, he picked it up and tried to put it on. He frowned when it didn't fit. He put it back into the box and closed it, he ran his fingers through his hair and sighed

"Are you alright?"

Liam turned to Zayn and shrugged "The ring... doesn't fit"

Zayn stayed quiet for a few minutes before he nodded "That's a good thing"

"What?"

"I married you before the accident, I married the person you were... Not the person you currently are. Yes, technically we aren't divorced. But... I don't want you to feel obligated to stay with me"

Liam nodded and sat down on a stool "How did the accident happen?"

Zayn cringed and Liam frowned "Uhh... I caught this man, and He was jailed, and his wife didn't like that. So one day... when you were on your way to your parent's house, She purposely hit you with her car. Your car was damaged, and everyone was happy that you didn't suffer any like... permanent injuries. Apart from you losing your memories of course"

Liam nodded "Do you feel guilty?"

"I've been walking around with the feeling of being guilty on my shoulders for the past 2 years. It's all I feel"

"Don't... feel guilty"

"You forgot everything BECAUSE of me! How do I not feel guilty?"

"I'm remembering... bit by bit, I just need someone to fill in the gaps" Zayn sighed and Liam looked at a few pictures then at Zayn who was fiddling with his ring "Mind helping me with that?"

~~~~~

"This one is when... You first introduced me to your parents as your boyfriend" Zayn said pulling out a picture of when Liam seated on Zayn's lap and hugging him tightly

"How did they react?"

"OK PARENTS! You both know Zayn right?" Both of his parents nodded and he smiled "I met him in a closet... back when I was in the closet... Now he's my boyfriend. THREATEN HIM FATHER!" Liam said sitting down on Zayn's lap

"Well aren't you the nicest" Zayn mumbled wrapping his arms around Liam's waist

Liam turned to his parents who had their jaws dropped open. His mother stood up and ran inside "I NEED TO CAPTURE THIS MOMENT!"

"Oh god... that must've been-"

"The most supportive reaction I've ever seen from a parent," Zayn said and Liam turned to him
