Secret Benefit ▸ ZM

When he lands on her page, Zayn's surprised.
She looks nice, has a great smile and brown hair that falls on her shoulders naturally. Her eyes seems like a mix between light and dark brown and she looks happy.
He knows it might just be because of the picture and not because she actually is, but still.
It's refreshing.
It's nothing like the others.
He likes the fact her profile doesn't have any naked photos or stuff like that.
It's nice.

So he checks every inch of it, reading her bio, glancing at the interests she put in and he's once again surprised, when he sees they have quite a few things in common. At least on paper.
He knows that real life can be a completely different thing.

"What are you doing?" Harry asks all of a sudden, bringing him back to reality. "You seem lost" he adds, chuckling lightly as he lets his boyfriend lay against his chest, head pressed on his shoulder while a hand circles on his stomach, over his clothes.

Zayn looks up, shrugging. "I'm just checking out the Secret Benefit's app thing. I think I've found a profile I like and I'm thinking about sending a text" he easily answers, letting his back hit the back of the chair he's sitting on. "I mean, I'm not saying I'm taking her out or anything, but maybe just a conversation..."

"It always starts like that" Louis —Harry's boyfriend— says, a soft smile on his face. "Then you'll be in love in no time" he adds, tilting his head to just stare into Harry's eyes. "Just like us"

"I hope not" Zayn's quick to reply. "I mean— nothing wrong with that, yeah? But that's not what I'm looking for, so I think I'll fine just as I am"

Harry shakes his head while Louis just shrugs and goes back to give his attention to his boyfriend, ignoring him completely.
He doesn't mind.
He kinda hates being the center of the attention, so these moments are good.
Even if he can feel Harry's eyes on him. He knows he's studying his expression and he's probably trying to understand what's going on in his mind.
Truth is, he doesn't even know himself.

But it doesn't matter. Not in that exact moment.
And that's why he finds himself liking the profile back.
This Rose girl seems interesting enough and he sure could use the distraction right now.
