We're both on Cloud Nine- Zayn Malik Fan Fic

11: Jealously ruins Everything

~Rydell's POV~

I slowly opened my bedroom door and tip-toed to Zayn's room. I opened his door and crawled up to his bed. He laid peacefully looking much younger in his sleep. I could probably stay here all night and watch him sleep but we had to go to the bonfire.

Christmas was actually very fun this year. We didn't go out for two reasons one, well because it was Christmas and literally no one in town opens up except for the pharmacy and two, we were snowed in. That day Zayn woke me up and dragged me out to play in the snow like two little kids. After that we went back in and sat to eat breakfast with Charlie and Nicole. We had our present exchange and then spent the rest of the day watching movies.

I really didn't get much, not that I mind. Charlie got me a new laptop, along with some accessories. Nicole bought me some clothes online. Clothes that I had bothered her over and I guess it worked. Zayn gave me a charm bracelet I had set my eye on when we went into the antique shop. It already had a few charms on it such as a cross, a crown, and a small sun. Zayn added a phone booth, reminding me of London, a paintbrush, an owl just like my tattoo, and of course a mug representing hot chocolate. The smile he gave me when I asked him what the mug was for was absolutely adorable.

Did I seriously just say that?

I shook my head and nudged Zayn on his shoulder to try and wake him up.

"Zayn. Wake up." I whispered

"Mmm what?" he croaked

"C'mon get up."

"Five more minutes please."

"Zayn, please."

"Okay, okay let me just-" he faded off and started to move around. He lifted his head up and looked at the clock.

"Why in the fucking hell are you waking me up at eleven at night?"

"I told you not to go to sleep, but you didn't listen to me."

"Where are we going?" he asked

"Just get up. I promise it'll be fun."

"Hey! You made it!" Harry yelled as he made is way towards Zayn and I

"Wouldn't miss it for the world." I said

I looked over at Zayn and he seemed to be checking out the scene.

We were at Harry's house. He lives in the guest house at his parent's house which was over by the lake. The guest house and his parents house were a good distance away from each other, but either way his parents went into the city for the weekend.

"I'm gonna grab a beer." Zayn said

"Kitchen's that way mate." Harry said and Zayn went off in search of his beer

I followed Harry outside over to were the bonfire was at. I grabbed a beer from one of the coolers and sat on the couch.

"I've never seen you around. First time here?"

I looked up and saw there was a blonde guy, holding a beer, and smiling at me.

"Nah. I've been here before. I just stay here for a month and then leave."

"Cool. Cool." he said taking a sip from his beer bottle

"I'm Niall by the way." he said and extended his hand in effort to shake mine

"Rydell." I shook his hand

"Are you a friend of Harry's?" I asked as he sat down next to me

"Yeah. I'm crashing at his place for the holidays. Then I'll be back in New York and going to Uni." he said
