Chapter 23

Harry's POV:

I drop my arms by my sides and to let Zayn move towards the girls. I watch with tear drops threatening to fall as he crouches down in front of them.

His shoulders shake lightly with what I hope are happy tears.

This was so worth it.

Spending all that time away from Zayn, and paying some of Louis old friends to help the girls was worth it. Not only because they are little angels, but the look on Zayn's face was priceless.

Zayn's shaking arms slowly wrap around the Waliyha first, then grab Safaa and drag her into the hug.

His whole body quivers and his crying is muffled in the girls shoulders. The girls quickly return the hug with wet cheeks and flushed faces.

I bite my bottom lip and look over at Louis, who has a strange but endearing look on his face.

Zayn half pulls away from the girls, standing up with a hand on Safaa's shoulder and an arm wrapped around Waliyha's waist.

"D-did you do this?" He stutters meeting my gaze and throwing a soft smile down to the girls.

I nod my head at Louis, who all of a sudden looks hesitant and he walks to stand by me.

"Yeah, with the help of Louis."

Zayn turns his head towards Louis and gives him the nicest look I've seen between the two so far.

"Thanks.. mate." My heart swells at having my boyfriend and best friend acting kindly towards each other.

They're a long way from best friends, but at least they seem to have reached the beginning of liking each other.

Louis smiles back and then motions that he's going to leave and I grin and nod at him.

"No problem" He murmurs before slipping out the door.

That's when Zayn turns to me with an unreadable look.

"You." Is all he says before letting go wrapping is arms around my waist in a bone crunching hug.

I hug back tightly, still trying not to cry.

"How?"

"Louis and his old runaway buddies. He also helped find them a secure place to stay until you can afford them."

"And where is that?"

"You know my teacher? Ms. P? Well she sorta offered. But they can spend most of their time here with you." I reply quickly, hoping he won't refuse.

"Wrong." That one word makes me freeze.

"W-what?" I stammer searching his amused face.

"With us. They can spend most of their time here with us. I'd really like my sisters- damn it feels good having them here- get to know the love of my life." He says softly, taking his sisters by the hands and pulling them towards me.

That's when the tears spill over.

"What's wrong love?" Worry is etched onto his face and I chuckle slightly at his concerned expression.

In answer I just grab the girls and Zayn and wrap my arms around them, squeezing tightly.

The tears stop when I pull away and turn towards Zayn.

"It's just-- I love you so freaking much. All I've done so far is caused t-trouble and seeing that I can make you so happy. It's just-- I just-- It's almost too perfect to believe." I say quietly, watching the emotions flash past is eyes.
