Co-workers (Harry Styles AU) (SLOW UPDATES)

Chapter 2: Confusion

When we arrive at my house the boys rush into Liam's room. They are seriously to excited about that video game. I do a lot with them, but I could never get the hang of the video games, espically the war games. There was so many buttons that do so many different things. It is too confusing for me, but they don't mind just letting me watch.

Since I didn't run in with the boys, I met my parents at the door. Both of them work at the local hospital. Most of the time, they worked the night shifts. We were used to them being gone at nights.

"Bye Lily, please don't let those boys tear down the house," my father says walking towards the car. My mother comes down the stairs next.

"Please keep them under control," she says with a smirk.

"I'll try mom, but Liam and Niall have no control," I tell her.

"Well at least try to make Niall save us some food for once," she says with a smile. I begin laughing but as I think about it Niall does have a bad habit of stealing a good deal of our food. One time we left him alone in the kitchen for 10 minutes, and he downed a whole bag of chips and 5 Little Debbie snack cakes. He is definitely special, but we all love Niall to piecies.

"Oh," she adds, "I haven't got the talk to there new friend that much. Zach is it?"

"No mom, Zayn." I correct her.

"Well he is very polite and very cute!" She says with a wink. I honestly want to avoid this subject, but I blush anyways.

"Mom, don't you have some work to go to or something?" I ask hoping she will get the hint.

"I can tell you obviously like him, but I really do have to get to work. I want details later, okay?"

"Sure, whatever," I say just hoping she will drop it and leave.

"Bye Lily Anne, Love You!"

"Love you too, mom."

As they drive away I walk in the door and find Niall digging around in the kitchen.

"Nialler!" I say quite loudly, causing him to jump and look at me with guilt all over his face.

"I'm sorry, I'm just really hungry." He says and I can't help but smile. How could I not love him.

"Okay, I'll cook supper in a bit. How does that sound?"

"Great!" He says, "Why don't you come watch us play a bit. I'm gonna kick their bums." Niall says with way to much confidence.

"Whatever Niall, you always loose."

"Zayn hasn't played the game before so I might actually have a chonce!"
He says with a bright smile. I laugh at the way he says chance and follow him up the stair to Liam's room.

When I get there the only space left in the room is, of course, by Zayn. I just casually walk in and sit next to him like I've known him all my life. In reality my heart is racing and my palms are sweaty. Why does this boys have such an effect on me?

"Liam, I know you are cheating! You can not possibly kill so many people and I've only killed three!" Zayn pouts. Aww it's actually really cute. He has big brown eyes and those lips, ugh.

"Mate, I'm just that good," Liam says with a bit of an attitude.

"Whatever. Here Niall take over for me," Zayn says and tosses the controller over to the Irish boy. Niall instantly kills several people and Zayn sits there in shock. Seriously, pouty and frustrated Zayn is too adorable.

"Hey maybe you just need more practice." I tell Zayn, trying to make him feel a little better. He smiles and wraps his arm aroung me as we watch the other two play. Wot? He is basically holding me! What the heck? I barley know him. Maybe he is just trying to show me he appreciated me trying to make him feel better. There is no way he likes me. I keep think all this as we sit there. Finally, he breaks the silence between us.
