Being Pulled in a New Direction (Boyxboy)

Chapter 1

Yay next chapter ;p

Aaron:

UGH! How much longer! This plane ride is taking forever. I am so excited right now! I finally get to see Zayn after, what? 8 months? It felt like a lifetime...

I feel bad that i left Zayn with that ominous message. He pretended like it didn't bother him but i know it did. I see right through those big brown eyes. He never fools me. It's just that-- that... I don't know how to tell him. It's been eating at me ever since he left NYC. How would he react? How would he treat me? What will he say when I tell him that I'm gay? I hope things go over smoothly. I mean he shouldn't have a problem with it. I should hope not. He already treats me like I'm his boyfriend. With the pet names and everything. Sometimes it makes me wonder... I mean there was a time when I had a massive crush on Zayn. But that was a long time ago. And I would never tell him. Never ever. He is more like a brother to me now.

I decided to listen to some One Direction music. I felt it would fit the moment. Plus I thought it was kind of funny. I'm not a huge fan. But I'm a huge supporter of Zayn. So I figured I should listen to their music a bit more often. It's catchy and fun to dance to. I just wanted to pass the time.

By the time their album had played twice I saw the seat belt sign light up. The plane was preparing to land. I felt my stomach do backflips out of excitement and nervousness. I looked out of my window to the world below. I was smiling. I am so looking forward to this time with Zayn and getting to know his bandmates.

The plane had landed but I sat there for a while to wait for the cabin to clear up before I grabbed my carry-on. I walked off the ramp and toward the baggage claim. I scanned the floor but nope. No sign of my Zaynikans. I walked over to the carrosel to grab my luggage. With a lttle effort I got it off but of course, clumsy me, I fell right on my butt. " Do you need any help with that Love?" I heard from behind me.

I knew exactly who it was. "Zayn!" I screamed. Dropping my carry-on to the ground I lept into his arms. He chuckled and melted in my arms as always.

"Be careful where you scream my name AirBear." He wispered into my ear. "You could cause a riot."

"Oh sorry" I smiled realizing my mistake. I forgot about how famous Zayn was. Luckily the people around us could care less. I picked my luggage up and slung the carry-on over my shoulder. Which didn't last long because Zayn took it all from me right away. "you had a long flight" he said thoughtfully. I nodded even though I hated when he babied me. He tries to do everyting for me. We headed toward the parking lot. "That accents a trip." he teased. " you goin American on us?"

"Oh stop it" I grinned. "It sticks on to you"

He laughed and shook his head. We reached his sports car. He stuck my stuff in the trunk and I got in the passengers seat. He got in, looked at me and then wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my forehead. Worry shot across his face. I bit my lip and put my head on his shoulder. "What did you have to tell me AirBear?"

My heart dropped and I got a knot in my throat. I pulled away from him and looked out the window for a second. I took a deep breath than I looked back at him. "Well for a while now I have wanted to tell you this. I just didn't know when or how. I'm worried what you might think." I had an edge to my voice. Like I was about to cry but I wasn't. I guess it was the nerves. He nodded for me to continue. "Zayn, I--I'm gay." For a second there was silence. I got scared.

"That's all!" Zayn sighed. " I thought you had cancer or maybe that you were pregnant" He smirked. "Believe me I've known" I let out a long sigh of relief and punched him. "Come on. Let's get you home" I smiled at the words. He drove with his right hand and interlocked his fingers with mine in the left. He played all my favorite songs because he loved to hear me sing. He just smiled. It was weird driving on the left side of the road again. I guess I'll get used to it. We pulled into the parking garage of a huge apartment building. "You'll love the guys!" He said. He wheeled my luggage and I took the duffel bag from him and gave him that "CALM THE FUCK DOWN" face. We walk to the elevator and he pressed the PENTHOUSE button. I smiled because I never lived in a Penthouse. He looked over and must of read my thoughts. "Yeah we have a loft apartment. It has just enought room to fit the whole band."

"Will I have a place to sleep?" I asked.

"Of course AirBear!"

"Okay" I said mockingly.

The elevator doors opened to reveal a small hallway with a door at the end. "Now remember" Zayn said "That is the only lift that comes to our floor." I nodded.

He stuck the key card into the hole and turned the knob. "I'll get you a key later but just relax for today. We could even watch a movie" I smiled at the thought. I'm sure his bandmates would join in no doubt, but that's fine with me. As long as I am with my baby. "I"M HOME!!" Zayn yelled. I heard footsteps coming from the upstairs of the apartment. The rest of the band appeard infront of me. Starting with Niall, the cute blonde. Louis looking sexy as hell. Then Harry looking adorable. He was eyeing me. Looking at me up and down. Then Liam who I would say is the cutest of all. He's the one I was actually excited to meet. He looked at me and smiled. "You must be Aaron! We have heard a lot about you" He said looking at Zayn.

"You guys don't have to introduce yourselves. I'm sure he knows who you are." Zayn said smiling.

"Where do I sleep?" I asked Zayn

"I could sleep on the couch and he could have my bed" Liam said.

I think i might of blushed a little bit when Liam said that. It was just so kind and selfless.

"That's dumb Li" Zayn snapped. "He could just sleep with me"

"Zayn! You didn't have to snap in him. He was just being nice." I yelled.

"Sorry Babe" he said. He grabbed my duffel bag and said "I'm going to bring your stuff upstairs and get you unpacked. Meet me up there later for a tour of the place. Get to know the guys while I'm gone will ya?"

I nodded. I didn't realise the weird looks the guys were giving each other. "Do you have like some magical super power or something?" Niall laughed.

"No." I said confused

"You just yelled at Zayn and he backed down and apologized..." Liam stated.

"Yeah. So." I said still confused.

"The Zayn we know never does that" Harry said. "I can see that you mean a lot to Zayn..."

I smiled. "He means alot to me too." The guys smiled and went on with their business. So i went up the stairs. It didn't really take me that long to find Zayn's room. It was pretty big. It had a huge bed in the middle so i wasn't worried about my sleeping arangement. A sitting area by an array of windows that depicted a beautiful view of London. He had a walk in closet filled with shoes and snapbacks most likely. He had two dressers. One with his clothes and the other was being filled with my clothes. "I wanted you to be comfortable so i bought your own draw." He said.

"Thanks. Hey Zayn?"

"Yeah Aaron?"

"You think we could hold off on that tour? I'm exausted."

"Sure beb. You get some rest"

I kicked off my shoes and took off my jeans. I layed down in his bed. It was so warm and cozy. He tucked me in and kissed my forehead. "I love you" he wispered.

"I love you too!" I called as he went to go shut the blinds. He shut the door behind him. I drifted off almost instantly.
