"We lost a human. An adult human. A drunk adult human. ZAYN, HOW DID WE LOSE MY BOYFRIEND?" Harry asks, as he paces around his yard, his fingers tangled in his hair. 

"Err, just check in your house, mate. He's not even lost. He probably just went inside." Zayn shrugs, peeling his wet shirt off his torso. Why he didn't take off his shirt before he sprayed himself with the hose, he doesn't know. 

"Yeah, yeah, let me check." Harry breathes, walking into the house, to see Louis sitting on the couch. He sighs in relief, until he sees that Louis is on the phone—Zayn's phone, to be specific. Then, he hears what Louis is saying.

"YAS, Liam! That's what I'm saying! I totally ship Ziam. You dump Ashley; Zayn dumps Perrie. You get together. I am captain of the Ziam ship!" Louis pauses, probably listening to what Liam's saying. "I don't care if you're not gay... anyone can turn gay for Zayn. Have you seen that boy? He's like a Vogue model. Or a Greek god." 

"Louis..." Harry approaches the boy, only to be shushed. 

"I'm having a serious conversation with Liam, Harry! Don't interrupt!" Louis says, then apologizes to Liam for the interruption. "We could go to gay bars together! Larry and Ziam! It just flows, doesn't it, Liam?"

Harry shakes his head, leaving the drunk boy to speak with Liam about Ziam in peace. 

So, Harry finds his way back out to Zayn, who is shivering in wet pants and no shirt. The cat is hissing at him from in the kennel. 

"Hey, Z, do you need some clothes?"

"Could you spare some? That'd be great." 

A few minutes later—Louis is still on the phone, and Liam is probably pretty annoyed—Harry comes out with a towel for Zayn, so he can dry off and change clothes in the house—though Harry's sure his neighbors wouldn't mind seeing the attractive boy strip in the front yard.

Harry takes the other towel he brought and dries the cat off with in, despite the many hisses in protest. After the cat is dry and fluffy, Harry puts on a flea collar he had bought prior on the cat. (He thought about buying one for himself, too, but that would probably be really weird.)

Harry doesn't usually do daily vlogs, but he feels that today would be a good day for one, seeing as he has a cat to introduce to his fans, a drunk boyfriend to make fun of, and another slightly buzzed friend to talk with. 

So he grabs his phone, and starts recording. 

"Hey guys! I wanted you to meet mine and Louis' new cat.. she doesn't have a name, yet." Harry focuses the camera on the little gray kitten, petting it and then scooping it up into his arms to bring it into the house. "Hi, Louis!" Harry points his camera right up close to Louis' face, almost up his nose. Louis swats the camera away, whining about how he's still taking to Liam. 

Harry then makes his way to the bathroom, where he opens the door without knocking, showing his fans an exclusive look at Zayn in only his underwear.

"Harry! Ever heard of knocking?" Zayn eyes the camera, dropping his hands over his junk—which, is already covered by underwear, but still. 

"Yeah.. I've heard of it.. but it doesn't sound fun." Harry teases, laughing at Zayn's blushing face.

"Get out!" he yells, pushing Harry out of the bathroom and slamming the door in his face. 

Harry smiles sheepishly at the camera. "It doesn't look like anyone wants to talk." he pouts, and as if on cue, the cat meow. "Oh! Except the little kitten here, I guess." 

Harry ends the video and uploads it to his computer, where he slightly edits it and uploads it. Then, he confronts Louis, again. 

"Done with Liam?" he asks, sitting on the couch next to Louis. Zayn is sitting on a chair a little ways away. 

"Yeah." Louis laughs. "He ships Ziam now." 

"Ziam?" Zayn asks, and Louis smiles evilly.

"Yours and Liam's ship name!" Louis explains. "I set up a time for you two to go out. Tomorrow at six, you both—and Harry and I, because double date!—are going out to dinner."

"But Per—"

"Shhh..." Louis reaches over to Zayn and presses a finger up to his lips. 

After a few ticks of silence, Harry speaks up. "I think Louis has a crush on you." 

"What?!" Louis blurts, looking over to Harry for an explaination. Zayn also raises an eyebrow. 

"He said that anyone could turn gay for you." Harry supports his statement. "He also called you a Vogue model, and a Greek god."

Zayn starts laughing. He doesn't end up saying anything, just makes kissy faces towards Louis, who backs away towards Harry.

That whole ordeal ends in a few minutes, when Louis suddenly remembers that there's a football match—his team (the Rovers) and Niall's team (Derby)—on in an hour. 

"We should invite Niall." Harry suggests. 

"If you want him to get murdered by Louis when Derby wins." Zayn says. 

"Derby will not win!" Louis replies. "Invite Niall."

"And Liam, because we might as well get the whole gang here." Zayn suggests, and Louis smirks at Zayn, mouthing "ZIAM."

So, within the next half hour, Harry finds himself squished on a couch next to Louis and Niall, where Liam sits on the other side of Niall. Zayn is still sitting on the other chair. The cat stretches itself across Niall and Liam's laps. (Well, more like across one of Liam's legs and one of Niall's, because the kitten is quite small.)

By the end of the night, Liam, Zayn, and Harry had excused themselves to the kitchen, where they carried out a conversation about pickles—"They're okay. I mean, the pickled ones are. The sweet ones are disgusting."—and Louis and Niall are still in the living room, cheering on their teams and yelling at each other occasionally. 

When it comes to it, Derby wins, 2-1.
