twelve: the plan
"No. No way in hell." Louis says, shaking his head as he looks at Zayn in pure disbelief. He'd been doing that a lot lately.
"Look, I'm not exactly happy about it either... but this is the only way we can both get what we want. If we get married, my dad doesn't cut me off and you get the help you need. I'll claim the kid, I'll be the dad you want me to be... Think of it as like a business deal, not as a marriage."
"I'm not going to spend the rest of my life with you." Louis says, crossing his arms over his chest as he glares at Zayn.
"And you don't have to. People get divorced all the time, and that's what we're going to do. We'll just get married, convince everyone that we're the happy little family they want us to be... and after like a year or two... we get a divorce. I'll still help with the kids, but you won't have to pretend you enjoy the pleasure of my company." Zayn shrugs, almost like it was the most brilliant idea in the world. Zayn had a habit of convincing Louis though... and Louis honestly didn't think it sounded that bad. Whether he wanted to admit it or not, Louis was going to need Zayn's help...
"That's it? We pretend we love each other for a year, and then we just end it?" Louis asks, just making sure that what he was hearing was true. Zayn nods, a small smile on his face as he sticks his hand out for Louis to shake.
"No strings attached." Zayn says with a wink. Louis glares at Zayn, refusing to shake his hand.
"The last time you said that, I got pregnant." Louis points out, arching his eyebrows at Zayn as he chuckles. Louis didn't find this a laughing matter.
"Sorry... but do we have a deal or not?" Zayn asks, turning serious. Louis lets out a sigh, unsure if this was going to stab him in the back or not... Who's to say Zayn will keep up his side of the bargain?
"What guarantee do I have that you're going to keep your promise?" Louis whispers, biting his bottom lip. Normally he would care less if Zayn kept his promise... but there were children involved.
"I'll tell my dad the truth, and he'll cut me off." Zayn says, looking sincere as he speaks. Louis nods before sticking out his hand. Zayn takes it into his grip, a small smile on his face.
"It was a pleasure doing business with you Mr. Tomlinson. Now, would you care to join me?" Zayn lets go of Louis' hand, holding out his arm as if he was going to escort Louis. Louis rolls his eyes, pushing past Zayn and back into the older boys office. Charlotte was still sitting there, doodling in her notebook as she waited patiently. She smiled brightly when she saw Louis.
"It's nice to meet you, Louis. I'm Charlotte." She sticks out her hand for him to shake, her smile still bright. Louis returns it halfheartedly before sitting on Zayn's desk. Zayn sits down in his chair, looking at Louis for a second before giving his full attention to Charlotte.
"Shall we pick up where we left off?" Zayn said, smiling at Charlotte. Charlotte nodded, eagerly picking up her pen.
"So as I said earlier, this interview is solely about yours and Louis' relationship. My first question is obviously how the two of you started dating, assuming that you are in fact dating of course." Charlotte talks excitedly, her voice overly high pitched. Louis was already getting a headache and she hadn't really asked them anything. Zayn just chuckles, looking at Louis again before he answers the question.
"Well, I've known Louis since I was twelve. His family was fairly close with mine so we saw each other a lot. It really wasn't until last year that Louis and I started to really hang out as just the two of us... I don't really know how it happened, but one day I realized that I was crazy about him... and I went for it. Luckily for me, he felt the same way and we've been together since then." Zayn says, his eyes connecting with Louis' but Louis knew that it was all just some made up shit. If there was one thing Louis absolutely knew about Zayn, it was that he was a wonderful liar.
"That's adorable. Do you care to add anything Louis?" Charlotte is looking at Louis expectantly, making the young boy freeze on the spot. He wasn't good at lying, he'd never been good at it.
"Uh... Not really? Zayn did a pretty good job." Louis says, biting his bottom lip. Charlotte laughs a little before nodding.
"Alright, next question. Who was the first to say I love you?" Charlotte smiles brightly and Louis honestly wants to know who thought of these questions. What kind of question was that?
"It was me, no doubt about it. It was like right after I got back from some sort of business trip, I'm not sure where... but he had met me at the airport and like I had really missed him... so I just told him that I loved him, he said it back almost instantly." Zayn finishes and Louis just continues to stare at Zayn. He kind of admired him... He had put a lot of thought into this...
"Excuse me while I try not to coo. You guys are seriously goals already! Now, next question... What do you guys do on your typical Friday nights?"
"It really just depends. Most of the time we go out and do something pretty chill. Louis likes it most when we just order in and watch movies at home... He doesn't like going out very much and I guess that's just one of the many things I love about him." Zayn smiles, and that was how the next hour went. Zayn answering Charlotte's questions, always relating them back to how much he loved Louis. By the end of the hour, Louis was almost convinced that Zayn actually was in love with him...
But he knew better than that.
Zayn was just a really good liar.
