Make Me Stay [Zarry AU]

29. Date

"This is...this beautiful Zayn", Harry gasped in surprise as he looked around his surroundings. He never thought their terrace could turn into such a romantic spot. There was a small table for 4 people, in the middle of the terrace. In the middle of it was 3 candles, red roses surrounding them. A picnic basket was beside it. And all the borders of the terrace were also decorated with candles. The small terrace looked beautiful. Harry was in awe with all of these.

"You liked it?", Zayn whispered into his ear, sending shivers down his spine. It then he realized that Zayn's arms were around his waist and his chin was on his shoulder. And his own hands were resting on Zayn's on his tummy.

"I loved it.", Harry whispered, without turning. He was still looking at the decorations and smiling big. His dimples poking out.

"Come on then, let's start our date.", Zayn said and kissed Harry's cheek before taking his hand and leading him to the table. He pulled out the chair for Harry like a gentleman and Harry raised an eyebrow playfully at his tgis action. Zayn laughed and took his own seat. Harry was looking down at his hands which were resting on the table, feeling shy all of a sudden. Zayn slowly placed his hands on Harry's, making Harry look at him. He smiled warmly at him.

"Hey, it's just me Harry."

"I kn-know. But it's my first time on a date.", Harry said then blushed with embarrassment. Zayn's eyes go wide.

"Wh-what?" He was amused that someone beautiful like Harry had never been on a date.

"Um, yeah. I've never been on a date before. Never had someone to take me on one.", Harry laughed lightly. "You are my first everything.", Harry admitted slowly. Still looking down.

Zayn leaned over the table and took Harry's chin and lifted his face up only to come across a sad smiled face.

"I ruined everything, didn't I?", Zayn whispered. Guilt evident in his voice. Harry didn't say anything, he didn't know what to say.

"I can't rewind the time, but I promise, I'll try to make it up to you for the rest of my life."

Harry gave him a small nod and a smile which Zayn returned.

"So lets start the dinner, I'm sure you are hungry", Zayn said making Harry giggle. He took out the food from the basket and they started eating.

For the rest of the night, they talked about anything and everything. Like how lucky they were to have friends like Liam, Louis and Niall. Zayn told him about how he was thinking about changing his major from art to English so that he could be with Harry more.

Harry told him that he love art and that he shouldn't change it just to be with him. Harry told him about the time when he was pregnant with the twins, how bad his cravings had gotten and how his friends were always there when he'd got midnight cravings. Zayn couldn't help but feel sad that he wasn't there. But one reassuring smile from Harry and his sadness washed away as soon it came.

They talked about how much they were missing the kids now that they were with their uncles in Louis' 3 bedroom apartment, just two blocks away. It was thoughtful of their friends that they wanted to give the couple some privacy so they moved to Louis' apartment for a week to give them their much needed alone time. They promised that they would call then and inform them about the kids time by time. At first, Harry didn't agree with the arrangements, but then when Louis pulled him to a corner and explained that he wanted to know what it's like to be a parent so he and Liam can try for a baby, he agreed.

Zayn told him that before they went, Louis helped him with the decorations while Harry was busy helping Niall and Liam with the packing. Though, the idea was his own which Harry appreciated.

After the dinner they chatted for a while then decided they should go back to their room. Both of them got up from their seats and Zayn walked around the table and came in front of him. They both looked into each other's eyes. They didn't say a word as a comfortable silence blanketed them. Both of them smiled at each other.

"I had a great time. Thank you for all these Zayn.", smiling, Harry whispered. Zayn smiled in response and opened his arms.

"Come here", Zayn said and Harry gladly did. Smiling, he sighed in content he Zayn wrapped him in his warm embrace.

"I love you.", Harry whispered and placed a kiss on Zayn's shoulder making him smile.

"I love you too.", Zayn said.

They broke the hug slowly and stared at each other with so much love in their eyes. Zayn's hand on Harry's waist and Harry's on Zayn's shoulder. They both started leaning in as they closed their eyes. Both of their faces were so close, they could feel each other's breath on their lips.

"Can I..Can I kiss you?", Zayn whispered. Instead of answering Harry just closed the gap between them, touching his lips with Zayn's.

Their date couldn't be more perfect.
