Don't read around family, for things might get a little steamy for Zarry. Though just a little ... 😉

Harry

Zayn was snuggled up to me, my arms wrapped around him. His hair tickled my nose making me scrunch it. I rubbed circles on his back while he traced the skin on my chest, going over the tattoos I had.

I smiled. I was so happy, so content. I was holding him in my arms and I couldn't ask for much of anything else. 
Although we had yet to talk about the brief kiss we shared earlier.

After our ice cream escapade, we cleaned up everything and I concluded we were going to stay over night. Of course Nola was so very happy and so was mum, in turn making me happy. We watched a film or two before Nola started to doze off again.

My plan was to bring her in my room and for her to sleep there. But she was not having any of that. She insisted she sleep with mum and of course I let her. It's not like I was going to make her anyway. Besides, I figured she was safe enough. I was happy that mum is actually trying. I don't know what got into her but I'm glad she's trying to get back on her feet.

I joked around with Nola before she went with mum. I faked hurt that she was going to leave me alone but then Zayn stepped up and offered to keep me company with a blush on his face. I of course agreed. I mean who am I to deny such an offer.

Mum replied to that by saying we needed 'alone time.' Which caused us both to become flustered.

"Are we going to talk about earlier?" Zayn breaks me out of my thoughts. I glance down to see curious hazel eyes looking back up at me.

My heart started to pick up.

" what about earlier?" I manage to keep my voice steady. I know exactly what he's talking about. I'm just not sure if I'm ready to talk about it. I mean it was barely a kiss and what if he says that we shouldn't do that anymore as not to jeopardize our friendship? I would be crushed. This boy is everything to me.

"Harry." He drags out my name. He sits up and I follow. "You know what I'm talking about." He says. I sigh.

"Look, I know I kissed you and I shouldn't have without your permission, but I... I just couldn't help myself Zee. I saw an opportunity and I took it. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable or anything I just..." I trail off.

He reaches over to turn on the lamp and faces me. His eyes are scrunched.

"You saw an opportunity." He questions. "What do you mean by that?
" I sigh again knowing I have to tell the whole truth.

I have to tell my bestfriend that I'm in love with him.

I couldn't look him in the eyes when I started, instead I played with my lip ring and stared at my fingers picking at the fabric covering my bed.

"Every since I met you, I've liked you. At the time I didn't think anything of it. I just thought of course you're supposed to like your friends, I mean why would you want to be friends with someone you don't like. It was logical to me. But over time I realized that I might have had a little crush on my best friend. But still I never said anything because I thought it would go away." I looked up at Zayn making eye contact. He looked a little scared but happy at the same time.

I continued. "But it didn't go away. No matter how hard I tried, and believe me I tried. I didn't want to mess up our friendship because of my stupid feelings. So I hid them and kept them to myself." I looked away again. My heart was pounding in my chest and it felt as if I would break through any moment and run out of this room to get way from all of this. But I had to finish.
