Worth The Pain (A Zerrie Fanfiction)

Chapter 16

Photos of Zayn & Perrie leaving Heathrow airport. Obviously Perrie doesn't have purple hair anymore, oh well! :) --------->

"Zayn, it's been three days, why do we have to leave?" I sighed, packing my clothes into my bag.

"Because, I've tried to put the fact that Savanna is with Niall out of my mind, but I just can't do it. It really bothers me." Zayn lifted his bag and I rolled my eyes. I knew that he still felt something for Savanna, otherwise he wouldn't care if Savanna was there with Niall or not. 

We walked out of the hotel room, and down the elevator. Zayn grabbed my hand as we left the hotel and got into our taxi. I wasn't looking forward to getting back to London, but what I wanted didn't matter right now. It never mattered.

Heathrow airport was crowded with fans, I guess my tweet saying we cut the vacation short caused everyone to immediately get themselves to the airport and wait. There were two body guards waiting there for us, and they walked infront of us and guided us out. 

Arriving back at our flat was awkward. Zayn's things were all still at Niall's, so it still felt empty. 

"Let's go to Niall's." Zayn muttered, and I looked at the time. 

"Zayn, it's late. We shouldn't-" I started but Zayn cut me off.

"No, I need to go. Babe, you can stay here." Zayn wrapped his arms around my waist and I sighed. "I'm sorry, Perrie." He pressed his lips to my forehead. 

"I'm coming with you." I said, and Zayn grinned.

Niall's flat was dark, no lights were on but his car was there. Zayn knocked on the door, and we waited a couple of minutes to see a shirtless, messy-haired Niall open the door. Zayn and I both looked at each other, only assuming what he was doing in bed.

"Is Savanna here?" Zayn asked quietly, and I cringed at him saying her name. Niall nodded.

"Yeah, but she's sleeping in the guest room. Why do you ask?" Niall glanced over at me and I looked down at the ground. I folded my arms across my chest, and I felt Zayn's arm slip around my waist, almost as though he felt how awkward I felt. Zayn nodded, and then turned around to leave. He was being really rude to Niall, and I felt bad. I turned my head and quickly said goodbye to Niall, right before Zayn and I got into our awaiting taxi. 

We buckled ourselves in, Zayn told the man we were headed back to where we came from, and I rested my head on his shoulder. 

"Zayn, I want to ask you something." I said, my voice was quiet. 

"What is it babe?" 

"Why did you care so much about Savanna being here?" I looked down at his hand and played with his fingers. He sighed loudly, which caused me to look up at his face. 

"I just didn't want Niall shagging her." He said plainly, not looking back at me. I decided to just forget it and enjoy Zayn being next to me. 

We arrived back at our flat and decided we'd stay up to watch a movie. Jet lag wasn't very good to us, and neither of us were tired. I changed into a pair of Zayn's sweatpants and a tank top, and Zayn took off his shirt and wore a pair of pajama bottoms that hung low on his hips. We walked into the family area and cuddled up on the couch with a blanket. We turned on a movie, and I found myself dozing off soon after. I wasn't sure why, I just felt so safe in Zayn's arms that I couldn't help it. 

I woke up to the sounds of the birds chirping outside and the sun was shining in my eyes. I looked beside me and saw Zayn completely passed out. His mouth was open and he was snoring quietly. His arm was also draped over my waist. He must have brought me up to bed. I smiled at the though. 

I decided to wake Zayn up, because otherwise I would have nothing to do! I pushed the blankets off, and swung my legs on either side of his exposed back. I began running my fingernails gently up and down his back, seeing the goosebumps rise on his tan skin. I heard him let out a throaty groan and I smiled. I bent down and kissed his neck, and ran my fingers through his hair. 

"Wake up." I whispered in his ear and he tried to shake me off. 

"Go away." He mumbled into the pillow, and I bit his ear lobe seductively. 

"Zayn, please wake up." I said with a sexy tone, and I grabbed his ass. Zayn jumped, and flew off of the bed. I could not control my laughter, and I rolled onto the floor beside him. He grabbed my hips, and flipped me over so my back was on the ground and he was on top of me. 

"I'm going to punish you for disturbing my sleep." Zayn said, and then bit his bottom lip, and I pulled him down to kiss me. This was the happiest I had felt in awhile.
