xvviii- first

"Zayn! Zayn!" I screamed running out of my bedroom and through to the kitchen.

"What?! Oh my God are you okay? What's wrong?!" He yelled, dropping the container of yogurt in his hands. I laughed at that.

"Harry asked me on a date! A proper one! Like, a boyfriend-boyfriend date!" I exclaimed, all but jumping up and down in excitement.

Zayn's eyes softened, "That's amazing Niall, I'm happy for you, mate." He said genuinely, knowing how much this meant to me.

I let out a tiny, girlish scream before running out of the kitchen and back into my room.

Later that evening when Zayn and I were eating dinner, he finally said what we'd both been waiting for.

"Niall, please don't drink this time." He sighed, like a the weight of the statement had been lifted and the tension had snapped. I nodded furiously, almost dizzying myself.

"I promise. No alcohol. Nothing like that. I actually promise! Please let me go, Zayn! I won't drink!" I hyped myself up, leaning over the table towards him unconsciously. He let out a chuckle.

"I'm not the boss of you, you can do what you want to. I want you to go as well! Hell, I'm even excited about it!" He told me, sprinkling cheese over his pasta.

"Thank you. I know you aren't the boss of me. But, all this time, it's like you've had some weird, unspoken custody of me. I'm not complaining, it's what I needed." I told him, calming down.

"Needed?" Zayn asks, looking up at me.

"I don't need someone else to ground me now. I'm not going to go back to the depressed, mopey person I was. I am so, so happy. I love you so much, Zayn, I don't tell you that enough." I finished, Zayn looking a little stunned at my sudden speech.

"Love you too, Niall."
