The five lads were still at Zayn's house for a few days to spend time with each other until today.

Louis had to leave because he wanted to spend some time with his wife and son before he starts working on the album. Though his wife, Eleanor understands this very well but little Freddie wanted to see his dad. [A/N: I know that Freddie is not Eleanor's son but just for the sake of the story, imagine it]

Liam had to leave because there was a sports event as his son, Bear's school and he was stubbornly asking for his dad to be there to see him performing. Liam isn't married yet but has a girlfriend, Maya.

So, it leaves Zayn, Harry and Niall together.

"You feeling better, lad?? ", Harry asked as she put a wet cloth on Niall's forehead.

Niall got fever few days after the show so, Harry and Zayn had been taking care of him.

"Harry (Harreh) ! I will be in the kitchen, making lunch", Zayn told.

"Wait! I am coming too", Harry called out. Zayn nodded and went to the kitchen. "Ni, you take rest and if you would need anything, just call me or Zayn".

"You like him, don't you?? ", Niall asked with a teasing smile on his face.

The question caught Harry off gaurd. "Wh-what?! ", he stammered.

"Oh! Please don't try to deny it Styles. I have seen how you look at him. I am your best friend, you can't hide such important things from me", Niall teased.

"Umm... Yeah I have feelings for him", Harry said, blushing and Niall smirked. "But when we both were apart, I realised that I don't like him. What I have for him is much more, I think I love him. The day when he confessed his love for me, I was shocked but deep down I knew I feel something for him too but I couldn't say anything because I was confused. Now, I know that i-i love him and I don't want to lose him again".

"Aww", Niall cooed. "My hazza is smitten for The Bradford bad boy".

Harry playfully swatted away his arm and looked down to hide his red cheeks.

"But I don't know if he feels the same. I mean, he had Gigi and what if he still loves her? ", Harry asked with a frown.

"You're stupid Haz. Do you think Zayn really loved her?? Never! He has always loved you since the first day of the band. You think that he forgot you while he was Gigi but let me tell you that there wasn't a single day when he has not talked about you. I and Liam stayed in touch with Zayn and he used to ask about you and Louis all the time. Gigi was just a PR stunt. He even broke up with her once but his management forced him to do it again. One day he got drunk and they both had sex. He immediately regretted it next morning but later he found out that Gigi was pregnant. He could not just abandon her and his child so, he decided to carry it on. But then she did something she should not have done and that was the last straw"

"Really! Do you know why they broke up?? ", Harry asked.

"I know but it's not my place to tell you because it's quite personal and it would be better if Zayn tells you by himself", Niall said with a sigh.

"I am going to help Zee in the kitchen. If you would need anything just call us".

Harry got up and went to the kitchen. Zayn had his back turned to him and he was chopping some vegetables.

Harry just stood there, swooning over the older lad. Zayn was skinny, maybe skinnier than a model but he was perfect in Harry's eyes. Harry couldn't help but stare at Zayn's beautiful figure. How he pushed his hairs when they came in front of his face, how his muscles flexed when he moved.

"I thought you are gonna take forever to come", Zayn joked.

Harry shook his head with a smile and stood next to Zayn.

"Can you boil water while I am cutting veggies?? ", Zayn asked.

Harry nodded and moved to get a pan.

"Do you remember Zee?? One day you told me you're gonna leave the band on 30th February", Harry said with a idiotic smile plastered on his face.

"Oh yeah", Zayn said, beaming up at him. "And you cried until you realised that 30th February didn't exist".

Harry chuckled at the memory as he turned the gas stove on. "I was so stupid to fall for your prank".

"Who said you are any better now?? ", Zayn teased.

Harry pouted and crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"You are cute Hazza", Zayn laughed and pinched his cheeks.

Harry's cheeks turned scarlet, not because of the pinch but because Zayn just called him cute.

After a few minutes, Zayn stood silent as if he was deep in thought.

Harry noticed it and put his hand on Zayn's shoulder. "What happened?? You okay?? "

Zayn gulped and nodded. "Gigi is going to come tomorrow to take Khai with her for one week".

Harry's lips formed an 'oh' and his hand fell from his shoulder to his own side.

"You and Niall can go back to your houses if you don't want to see her. I understand. Hell! It's gonna be damn awkward again", Zayn said with a sigh.

"Do you want me to stay with you??",Harry asked.

"I-i want you to stay with me because I know I can't handle her alone but I understand if you wanna go", Zayn said, looking down at his feet.

"I'll stay", Harry said with a soft smile on his face.

Zayn looked up at him with slightly glossy eyes.

"Really?! ", he whispered so softly that Harry thought for a second that he didn't even say it.

Harry nodded and hugged Zayn close to his chest. He slowly wrapped his arms around the younger lad's waist.

"I am gonna stay. By your side always", Harry whispered in his ear
