Love In Death (1D AU)

Chapter Eighteen - Kisses

Niall left straight after the song ended so he wouldn't invaded their privacy. He was pretty sure that she loved it and he asked her the big question. Niall hadn't decided what happens after that. Harry and him had been practicing that song for a while but he had never brought out such a beautiful guitar. Harry told him that it uses energy to create things and the bigger they are the more energy he needed to use. Niall was very grateful.

The guitar had a silver front with a silver pick-guard and if you looked at the base of the body it had Niall in black writing, inscribed at the bottom. Niall loved Harry for this.

When Harry and Helena came back from their date they were holding hands and Niall gave Harry a creepy smile. He just poked his tongue out at him. Perrie looked up from the book she was reading, and with a small smile on her face, eyed their intertwined hands.

Harry and Helena were so cute together.

Harry and Helena were so cute together. Zayn and Helena had been betting on when Harry was going to ask out Helena and he had been chickening out for the past 100 years. Perrie bet Zayn that less than a month into Niall's arrival, Helena and Harry would be together. It was Perrie's guess that won as they both came down home holding hands.

She looked up from her book and smirked. She couldn't wait for Zayn to get back, just so she could laugh in his face. She knew it would happen but now that it has, Perrie could not stop smiling. Instead of freaking everyone out with her creepy smile, Perrie stood up and walked into her room, She hadn't spent much time in there lately. She sat her book down on the bedside table and sat on the edge of the bed.
Perrie looked around at the attic that Zayn and her stayed in for the first time in a month. She saw, hanging from the ceiling, a beautiful chandeleer that was dusty and missing a few jewels. There were many boxes of old things that previous residents had left behind. The last thing she looked at was their bed. It was a four posted King size bed and it had five pillows on it. There was a light to the right of Perrie and she know it was Zayn. He came up and stood next to her.

"Did you hear the news?" Perrie asked with a smug smile. She took his hand in hers and look up at him. He sighed.

"Yes, I did, and I know you win." Perrie laughed at this, it was funny because it was true.

Zayn leaned down and kissed me, softly. Perrie giggled slightly into the kiss.

"Zayn...I was thinking...maybe we could...redecorate?" She said inbetween kisses. They stopped kissing and Zayn looked at her.

"I think...that's a great idea."

As soon as he said that Perrie ran downstairs to look for Helena and Kimmy. When she saw them talking in the living room she grabbed them both by the hands and lead them into the spare room.

"Perrie, what's going on?" Helena asked her.

"Zayn and I are re-decorating the attic and I don't know what to wear." Perrie knew it sounded stupid but she had grown fond of her dress and she didn't want it to get in the way.

After Perrie had run downstairs Zayn had decided to change his clothes into something more appropriate. He thought to embrace the modern fashion but he couldn't do that without Niall's help. Zayn met him in his room and he gave him a strange look.

"Ok, heres the thing. I need help with...fashion." Zayn tried to explain but it came out wrong.

"Uhh..." Niall said. He sat up on his bed and looked at him, confused.

Zayn took a deep breath and try to explain again. "Perrie and I are re-decorating the attic and I wanted to wear something more...casual." He said.

"Sure, I can help you." He said.

When Zayn returned to the attic there was some movement behind some boxes.

"Perrie?"

"Yeah, I'm behind these boxes." She popped her head out from behind the boxes and then walked out. Zayn's mouth dropped and his eyes raked, guiltlessly, up and down her body.

"What?" She said. Zayn shook his head as if to say 'nothing' but he continued staring with his mouth open. She was wearing light blue jeans and a grey singlet shirt, she was also wearing a red plaid shirt around her waist. She had her hair in a 50's swirl and a red bandana tied around her head like a headband.

"We should probably start by searching the boxes." Perrie said.

"Uh-huh."

"I want to do everything myself, no voo-doo magic." She joked.

"Uh-huh."

"Are you even listening?" She looked over at Zayn. He was not listening and she knew it, he loved looking at her and as cheesy as it sounded, he could sit and look at her all day. Zayn walked up to her and wrapped her arms around her waist.

"You look...beautiful." He whispered in her ear.

"You like?" She teased. "Let me see you." She pulled away, still holding his hands, and looked Zayn up and down.

"Wow, Zayn, you...wow." Zayn looked down at his outfit. He thought that she knew that he asked Niall for help because he was wearing black, tight jeans and a white t-shirt. He had kept his dog tag that he got from his army service. Zayn grabbed Perrie back into his arms and kissed her on the lips, softly. Eventually, Zayn deepened the kiss and backed her up against the closest wall.

Zayn guessed the attic would have to wait until tomorrow.
