Creatures Lurking in The Dark (Ziall AU)

I Love Him

Niall's POV

I wake up with Zayn lying in my arms. His breath is slow and he is curled into me. We are a tangled knot of limbs. I don't think anyone could untangle us.

The best part is that neither of us is the big spoon or the little spoon. We are both just there. We exist. Neither of us have one specific shape or place hat we are at night. We just cuddle and end up in a mixed array of legs and arms and shoulders.

Eventually, Zee stirs and pulls me just slightly closer to him as he buries his head into my neck. I hold him for what feels like hours as I wait for him to wake up. To feel that I am here. To know that I was telling the truth last night.

I love Zayn. I won't lie to myself or to him any longer. I love him. I love him to death and I want to love him forever. I want to love him until the end of time. And I plan to. I plan to love him for as long as he will have me. And I plan to convince him to have me forever.

I know that I freaked him out when he found me with the human. I know I promised him, but temptation was too strong. I am gaining human traits though. A heart beat, blood that circulates through my veins. I'm slowly becoming alive again. And I can thank Zayn for that.

"Good morning sunshine." My words are slow and comfortable. I know that he will be cautious with me for a while. He likely thinks that I am going to attack him. He worries so much that he won't be able to tame me. This is an extreme version of "good girl tames the bad boy". Except he is a human boy that has some issues and I am a vampire that has enough problems to last lifetimes.

So maybe neither of us fits into a stereotype, but we have love. And isn't love considered the strongest and healthiest bond.

"Morning," his voice is rough with sleep and muffled as he speaks into my neck. I want him to love me as much as I love him, but you know what they say. Every relationship has one partner that loves more then the other.

He is literally giving me life. He is bringing me into a state of humanity. He is saving me. And I am just replaceable to him. I don't give him life. I don't have any power.

"Kiss?" I need to know he still trusts me enough to kiss me. I need to know that he will love me enough to not give up. Not yet.

He leans up and pecks my lips, but my craving isn't satisfied. I pull him flush against my body, lips interlocked as I kiss him and explore his mouth with my tongue. I kiss him hard as I feel him swelling a bit in his lower region and shove my body against him more. We make out for a good ten minutes before he pulls away and looks into my eyes.

"Are you okay with this?" I ask him, my eyes glancing down to his tightened jeans. He nods and pulls me to him again. And just like that, passion fills the room.

Hey guys! We didn't quite get the comments we were supposed to get. However, I don't typically agree with the update when idea, so here is an update. It isn't super long, but it helps with the cliff hanger. So have fun. Love you all.
