Liam snuggled into Zayn's neck, holding onto his shirt tightly.
"What-"
"Shhh... go back to bed" Zayn whispered, it Then Liam realized he was being moved
"Where...?"
"The bedroom, I'm sure your back hurts from sleeping on the couch all this time"
Liam smiled sleepily and shook his head "Not really... you're comfy" Zayn froze and looked at Liam who let out a quiet laugh "Yeah... I wake up a lot during the night"
Zayn chuckled then kept on walking "Should've known"
Liam hummed and nodded "Yeah... you should've. You're my husband you should know that at least"
"Worst husband of the decade aren't I?"
Liam shook his head "No... You still always made sure I went back to sleep"
Zayn furrowed his brows and looked down at Liam "What?" Zayn looked at Liam who was already back asleep. Zayn wanted to wake him up, talk to him more, but just shook his head and opened the bedroom door, he opened it and walked towards the bed, and laid Liam down
He was about to walk away when the grip Liam had on his shirt tightened. He smiled and shook his head
"You never change don't you..." he whispered before he got into the bed beside Liam. Liam immediately snuggled up to him and Zayn started to rub up and down his back
He kissed Liam's forehead and sighed
"Whatever you choose... I'll always love you" he mumbled before he fell asleep
~~~~~
"I GOT YOU SOMETHING!"
Zayn chuckled "What did you get me? What's the occasion?"
Liam skipped into the room and sat down beside Zayn, he gave him a wrapped present and Zayn smiled, he kissed Liam's cheek
Liam smiled "Happy birthday donkey"
Zayn shook his head "Donkey?"
"Yep, you carried me on your back to the top of the mountain, it was either donkey, horsey, or pack mule... I chose donkey because it's the closest to Shrek"
"What does Shrek have to do with this?"
"Shrek is an ogre who hates people who talk too much, and likes to live in isolation." Liam rested his chin against Zayn's shoulder "Remind you of anyone"
Zayn chuckled and nodded "Yeah"
"You're just too pretty to be Shrek"
"Yes I'm the level of pretty to be called donkey" he mumbled then opened the gift, he raised an eyebrow when he saw it was a book
"I opened your Amazon wish list. I knew you've been wanting it for a while. So I got it for ya" Liam said with a smile
Zayn hugged him tightly "You are one of a kind"
"But you'll tell me if you won't like it right"
Zayn smiled "I will, but I'm sure I'll like it. It's been in my cart for a while"
Liam smiled "For once, I probably got you a good birthday gift that won't die out"
Liam opened his eyes and looked at Zayn, he chuckled and Zayn kept rubbing his back. He looked at the book Zayn was reading and smiled
"I'll take it that you liked the book?"
Zayn furrowed his brows and looked at Liam "What?"
"In a dream... I saw that I was the one who gave you the book, for your birthday"
Zayn sat up and pulled Liam up with him "Not a dream babes, not a dream"
"What is it-"
"Memory"
Liam smiled and rested his head against Zayn's neck "I told you, you help me remember stuff"
Zayn pulled Liam on his lap and rubbed his back "I'm glad."
Liam put his head on Zayn's shoulder and sighed, he held onto him tightly and looked out the window. They stayed like that for a while before Liam pulled away
"I want to see the sunset from the top of the mountain"
"When? Today?"
Liam shook his head "I want to finish the portrait first, then we'll go up there"
Zayn nodded "ok"
~~~~~
They didn't know how they got into this position. One second they were sitting across from each other... and the next they were cuddled up on the couch. This time they were both very much wide awake. Liam had photos in his hand and he was asking Zayn about them, they'd laugh about dozens of them, and some they'd just laugh at, and some they'd just nod and put down
"Ok, what about... this one?"
Zayn chuckled "That was when you were going around saying you want to go to Italy for our wedding anniversary. You wanted to stay there for a year but I told you, we can't stay there for a year because I had work."
"Is that why I look so sad?"
Zayn nodded and stayed quiet for a few more minutes before he spoke again "I actually... asked my boss for a break from work, I had lots of break credit and I told him, I'd like a break for a month so I can take you to Italy for our anniversary... but that didn't happen"
Liam put the photos down and turned to Zayn "What was the last thing you said to me?"
Zayn turned the ring around until Liam held his hand, he squeezed Liam's hand and took a deep breath
"I'll buy groceries on my way back"
Liam nodded and sat up "Charming"
Zayn rolled his eyes "I didn't know that would've been the last thing I would say to my husband, If I knew I would've probably not let you leave in the first place!" Zayn said sitting up
Liam laughed and nodded "Again, charming"
They both sat there quietly, it was that comfortable silence between them both. From the corner of his eyes, Liam can see Zayn fiddling with the necklaces around his neck. They both stayed like that before Liam sighed and turned to Zayn
"Don't act like an idiot"
"What-"
Liam grabbed Zayn's face, pulled him closer, and kissed him, he didn't expect Zayn to pull his closer and kiss him back
