─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

The flat was unusually quiet for a Saturday afternoon. Y/N had woken up early, her usual routine of making breakfast for the boys already behind her. After everyone else had left to run errands or grab lunch, she found herself with an unexpected few hours of peace.

The kind of peace that could only come from a lazy day with no plans. And somehow, that quiet felt perfect.

She wandered into the living room, flipping through a magazine on the couch, when she noticed Zayn lounging on one of the armchairs, his eyes closed as he relaxed with a cup of tea in hand. "Not planning on doing much today?" Y/N asked, her voice playful but soft as she dropped down onto the couch beside him.

Zayn opened one eye, glancing at her, before raising his cup to take another sip. "Nah, just enjoying the silence for once. It's been a while." He let out a sigh and then flashed a small smile. "What about you?"

"I was thinking of catching up on some reading," Y/N said, stretching out on the couch, her magazine forgotten for the moment. "But I'm kinda enjoying the quiet too. Maybe I'll just nap, or..." She trailed off, her eyes scanning the room as if looking for inspiration.

Zayn raised an eyebrow, clearly amused. "Or what?"

Y/N smiled, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Or we could do something spontaneous. You know, nothing serious. Just... hang out."

Zayn let out a small chuckle, shaking his head. "You and your spontaneity. What did you have in mind? A walk? A movie? Or maybe you want to pick up some random hobby and make it your new thing?"

Y/N's face lit up as an idea struck her. "How about we go shopping? I need a few things, and it'd be fun to just wander around, and see what catches our eye."

Zayn's eyebrows rose, clearly intrigued by the idea. "Shopping, huh? Well, I could use a new hoodie. Let's make it happen."

Y/N jumped up from the couch, excitement bubbling inside her. "I'll drive."

Zayn smirked as he stood up. "As long as you're not driving that little Honda Jazz again." He said, almost groaning, Y/N laughed. "Nope, this time I'm taking the Range Rover. We'll get there in style."

Zayn's grin widened as he grabbed his jacket. "Alright, now you're talking."

The drive to the shopping district was relaxing, the city unusually calm for a Saturday afternoon. Y/N was behind the wheel, handling the Range Rover with ease. The two of them sang along to the radio, the sound of their laughter mixing with the music as they cruised through the streets.

After parking, they headed into one of the larger department stores, and it didn't take long before they were completely immersed in their shopping adventure. Y/N loved the sense of exploration that came with shopping—finding hidden gems she didn't even know she needed.

Zayn was more laid-back, enjoying the thrill of the hunt for a new hoodie but mostly happy to browse aimlessly.

"So, what are you looking for today?" Zayn asked, picking up a jacket and inspecting it.
