Opposites Attract

Chapter 16

Zayn's POV (next morning):

Something moved in my arms, making me jump out of my sleep, forgetting about last night. Liam was in my arms, fast asleep and I smiled down at him; he looked so cute. He stirred his nose scrunching as he stretched, and opened his eyes.

"Hi." He said, his voice deep with sleep. "What time is it?" I turned over, looking at my phone.

"7:15am." He groaned and buried his face in my neck. "Can we just stay here?" He whined and I laughed.

"Yes, we can stay here." I wrapped my arm around him tighter and I felt him smile against my skin.

 "I love you." I kissed the top of his head.

 "I love you too." Snores soon left his lips again and I ran my hands through his hair softly. I was so happy in this moment and I couldn't ask for more. My eyes stayed glued on him and butterflies exploded in my stomach. I could imagine myself with him for a while... maybe even married with kids. I'd like that, that'd make me extremely happy. The only problem right now was that he didn't fully trust me... yeah, he said he loved me, and I knew he did, but that didn't mean that he trusted me. I just had a feeling. I absentmindedly played with his hair and he squirmed, loosely hanging his arm over my stomach. I really kinda did love him, no one had made my heart flutter so much just by looking at me.

   At around 3pm, Liam and I both woke up, feeling completely refreshed.

"Wanna watch movies?" Liam asked. I laughed; he was such a movie person.

"Sure. Wanna go get take out?" He nodded and slowly, we got out of bed, getting dressed. Liam took one of my sweaters out of the closet and slipped it over his tshirt. He turned to me, a smile on his face as he slipped the too long sleeves over his hands.

 "You're so cute." I said and wrapped my arms around him, kissing him. I pulled away and put on one of my jumpers.

"Harry's taking Louis out tonight..." Liam said, looking at his phone. Oh? Louis was going a date? That was something new... Liam didn't look happy.

 "You have to let him do what he wants..." I said and he nodded, sighing.

"I know.." I kissed him again and grabbed his hand and we left, heading to the little Chinese place down the road. As we walked, students filled the courtyard as their classes let out and I spotted two familiar faces, one wearing a flower crown. They were hand in hand and Louis actually looked quite happy. I honestly couldn't wait to get Louis alone and make him tell me what had happened between him and Harry after he left our dorm room. Louis and Harry got swallowed by the crowd of people and Liam and I continued to get Chinese and then made our way back the room to enjoy a little date.
