Zayn

Before I had gotten off the phone with Niall I was sure to give him my phone number, making sure that if he ever needed me all he would have to do is give me a call. After I hung up I was hesitant, wanting to go see him while Liam slowly came out of the restroom and sat down next to me.

"What's on your mind?"

"I just...I don't know. It's all still so new to me, having feelings for a boy." I shrugged, furrowing my brows as I felt my phone buzz in my back pocket. I brought it out, smiling at the message from an unknown number as I quickly texted them back.

"So what are you gonna do? It's after visiting hours I bet, so I don't know if they'll let you in." Liam pointed out, making me grin as I stood up to get ready.

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean I can't sneak in." I gave an evil laugh as I tugged on a beanie, watching as Liam rolled his eyes and leaned back on my bed.

"Hilarious; call me if you need to be bailed out," I smiled. "But Zayn before you go; remember that you're leaving tomorrow. You know, for your tour?" I hadn't thought about that, furrowing my brows as I sighed and smacked my forehead.

"Yeah, you're right. Don't worry, I'll figure something out. Thanks, Liam."

Niall

I thought about what I had texted Zayn, wondering if he had taken me seriously or not. Maybe he had just said it to please me and didn't mean it, or he was on his way to me right now. I wouldn't know until later, but even now I was a little nervous and giddy. If he really did mean what he said, I couldn't help the small smile that started to form on my face, about to reach for my phone again until I heard a soft knock against my door.

There he was, red beanie covering his messy hair as he sent me a small smile. He walked inside, hands stuffed into his jean pockets as he awkwardly looked around before sitting in the chair next to my bed. With all the drama going on I'd forgotten just how beautiful of a person he really was; I couldn't stop staring at his eyes as he brought his hand up to my bruised one, his thumb gently running over my palm as he sighed.

"This is all my fault," He muttered, carefully lifting my hand and pressing a small kiss to it. I couldn't help but blush, my cheeks warming up at the action as he furrowed his brows. "All because of that stupid interview." At the mention of it I could feel the irritation bubble at the bottom of my stomach as I tried to suppress it.

"The crash itself? No. That wasn't your fault, so please don't blame yourself for it. But why did you say what you said in the interview? That really hurt." His eyes widened as he looked away, his eyes trained on the cast wrapped around my leg.

"I...that was all scripted. Management made us say that; all because we signed a stupid contract."

"Contract?" I cut in, furrowing my brows as it all started to piece together for me. "Wait...are you saying you guys are in a public relationship? It was all fake?" He nodded, giving a simple shrug of the shoulders as he confirmed what so many people had theorized for years since they'd first gotten "together".

"Yeah; for publicity, basically. I'm so sorry Niall, I really didn't mean the things that I said during that interview. In fact, at this point all I want to do is just be around you, not away from you," Again I blushed at his words, my heart beating faster as I bit my lip. "Don't tempt me like that," He muttered, leaning in closer as I leaned back into my pillow. He was out of the chair, hovering over me now as his hand came up to softly caress my face. Careful not to press on my bruises he leaned closer, his breath fanning over my face as I blinked.

"Like what?" I was almost breathless, looking to see his smile as he kept glancing down towards my lips.

"I think you know." That was the last thing he said before he closed his eyes and brought his lips to mine, the kiss slow and soft as he tilted his head. My heart monitor was going off the charts, my hand squeezing his bicep while he ran his thumb over my cheek and chin. He pulled away, resting his forehead against mine as he let out a deep breath that he'd been holding.

"I've been wanting to do that ever since I first lay my eyes on you." He chuckled, making me grin as I leaned up for another kiss. Well, up until we were interrupted.

"I...get your hands off my son." Oh geez.
