Change My Mind

Chapter 8 (No clue for the title 🤭)

Zayn's POV,

"Where did you go after school? I couldn't find you anywhere", I asked Harry who was sipping the apple juice I made for him. It's been an hour we're studying and I begged him to take a damn break or else, invite the whole damn school for my funeral.

"Yeah. I was with Louis", Harry answered and hearing he mentioned Louis, displeased feelings rushed through my body.

"I thought you two didn't work out yeah?", I said, but it came out in a harsh tone, which caused Harry frowned at me.

"Yeah, but now we discussed about it", Harry explained.

"So.. does it mean you two are-"

"No, no. We're gonna stay as friends", Harry cut me off. I heaved a sigh of relief when Harry mentioned the "friend" word.

"So.. what's up with you and Gigi?", Harry brought up the question, looking down without facing at me.

"Nothing?", I answered, my voice going up in the end.

"Really? You two were literally making out in the middle of cafeteria", Harry arched his brows, crossing his hands and pointed out. Okay, where did the word "making out" come from? I wanted to laugh at his dramatic behaviour.

"Is that why you're glaring at me the whole damn day?", I exclaimed.

"N-no. Why would I?", Harry stuttered and his cheeks turned in pink shade, immediately looked away from me. To be honest, it's quite impossible for me to resist Harry's blush which made me wanna tease him more only to enjoy his blush.

I leaned down to his ears and whispered, "Are you jealous, Styles?", I felt Harry body tensed up as my breath hit his neck and I realized myself in the same condition as Harry.

"In your dreams, Malik", Harry said in a gentle low tone as his usual but maybe it's the way he turned around to meet my gaze, or maybe our faces were inches away. I felt my pulsation doubled up as I felt the warmth breath against my nose. I bet Harry's feeling the same way as I could heard the uneven heartbeats from his chest. We both stared into each eyes as I tilted my head and leaned in closer and closer.

*Phone ringing*

We both jumped as I heard my phone ringing and leaned back quickly. I was so embarrassed, trying to recall what just happened and how I was attracted to him, and urge feeling to kiss him.

I quickly answered the phone without even looking at who's calling. My brain, somehow wasn't processing straight.

"Hello", I said and hear Liam on the other line.

"Zayn, wanna go partying with me?", Liam asked and I thought for a moment, looking over to Harry, who was still blushing.

"Hold on", I said to Liam and tap the mute button on the phone and stated to Harry, " Liam want me to come along to the party"

"Uh- Nice?", Harry frowned a bit, and asked in a questioning tone, not having a clue what I meant.

"Can we study later? It's Friday and I can't just sit in my room and study my ass off", I said, and Harry chuckled.

"Then go. You don't even have to ask me. But it's really respectful of you to ask for a permission from your tutor, Mr Malik", Harry playfully teased and smirked. Damn, I just realized I've never seen him smirked and he looked absolutely hot.

"Why, thank you Mr Styles", he chuckled as I teased and trust me, I could listen to his sweet laugh all day. I unmutted and reply to Liam who was waiting for my response, " Hey, Liam. I'll see you in an hour yeah?"
