Further On (Zayn Malik)

Chapter 40

Chapter 40;

I realize it's been a few hours since I've been sitting out here so I go back into the studio. Emiliano and John are here.

"Ready for your big day tomorrow!" John exclaims, slapping my back.

"Absolutely," I smirk.

"Can you imagine all the honeys you're gonna get."

"Funny. I already have one."

"Oh no! He's one of those!" Emiliano gasps.

"I was just telling him about himself too." Rico comes from one of the rooms with Zoe.

"You gotta understand that in this industry of mine, we like to go all out. Stripper club tomorrow after the single drops. Drinks on me!" John cheers.

What's with them and their love for infidelity?

Zoe comes over to me to rub my shoulders and I light up my joint again.

"You seem tense." She purrs in my ear.

"Hah, do I?" I blow the smoke out.

"Mhmm," she says seductively then comes closer to my ear and whispers. "I know exactly what will relieve the stress."

Did she not just have a quickie with Rico just now? My head snaps up to one of the guards coming in.

"Someone is looking for you Zayn."

I move Zoe off me as I go to get my delivery. I've been waiting ages for them to deliver me my massage chair for when I'm in here. It's a shame they took so long. Putting out my joint, I put it on the staircase then continue to walk down.

"Daddy!" I hear a squeal.

Haven't heard that in a while.

"Noah!" I rush over to them.

Arielle is standing at the end of the walkway with a big smile and Suraiya's car seat is in her hands.

"We're here!" She says to me when I scoop Noah and Joel up at the same time.

"After so long," I mumble harshly to her.

Okay. I'm still a little pissed off.

"Well, I had one of your drivers drop us off here, I wasn't too sure," she chuckles nervously, tucking her hair behind her ear. "You look good."

"Yeah." I say dismissively.

"Deddy!"'Joel giggles, putting his hands on my face.

"You guys wanna see the new house?" I ask them and they just nod.

I don't think they know what I'm talking about.

"Stay here, I'm going to get my shirt." I tell her.

"Well, why can't we come in?"

"Because you can't," I snap, losing my patience with her.

"Sorry," she mumbles, looking down.

"Go get in the car," I give her my keys. "It's across the street."

She timidly takes it from me then lifts Suraiya's car seat and walks across the empty street cautiously with the boys.

"What was out there?"

"Nothing, uhm I'm gonna go. I'll see you guys tomorrow?"

"At the after party! Fuck yes, Zayn!" Rico chants and I just laugh, walking out the door.
