The next morning when Zayn woke up, he heard rattling next to him. He could see that Harry was sitting at the little table in the room and opening a package of granola bars.

"Harry." He called through a sleepy voice.

"Wow. Look who is awake."

He giggled quietly. "Too bad. I didn't want to wake up."

"But then you wouldn't be able to see my beautiful face this morning."

Zayn laughed. "Oh shut up. What are you up so early for?"

"Early? It's not really early. It's ten thirty."

"Oh. It is?"

"Yes."

"Why does it feel so early then?"

"Because no one likes getting out of bed the next day when the sex was good the night before."

"Then why are you up and dressed? Are you saying I wasn't good?"

He took a bite of the granola bar. "No. You're going back home today. Plus we ran off without telling anybody anything. Our families are definitely looking for us."

Zayn groaned. "Oh yeah. I guess that's a very good reason to go ahead and get up." He sat up even though he didn't want to.

"Unfortunately, we brought no clothes when we skipped out so we'll have to get dressed in what we wore yesterday and worry about clothes later. I still showered though."

"Mhm."

"Also, I had to go down stairs and get us toothbrushes and stuff. They're cheap in quality but we'll only use it one time anyway."

"Did you get me one of those too?" He asked, gesturing his head to the granola bar he was eating.

"Yeah. I wanted to bring eggs and waffles up too but that's something you have to eat hot in order to fully enjoy it and I already know it would've been cold by the time we finished getting ready."

Zayn stood up out of the bed and stretched. "Yeah. Plus we don't have that kind of time anyway. We have to get back before our parents kill us."

"Tell me about it. Mom called me again this morning but I didn't answer the phone because I thought she might start screaming at me. I wasn't ready for that."

He sighed then collected his clothes from around the floor in the room. That's what happens when you ignore them."

"I know."

Zayn dragged himself inside the bathroom to get himself cleaned and clothed. It only took him twenty minutes or so and when he came outside, Harry handed him a package of granola bars.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

They didn't dally around too much longer. Instead they checked out of the hotel and headed straight home. The drive was short. So Harry specifically chose to wait until they were parked in his driveway before he started the conversation.

"So... we should talk." He said.

"Yes. We should. But I thought you were trying to avoid it."

He took off his seatbelt and faced him in the seat. "No. I wasn't trying to avoid it. I just wanted a better enviroment. That's why I said I didn't want to talk last night. Plus you left me no energy to think seriously anyway."

Zayn smiled and he took off his seatbelt so he could face him too. "Okay, I'll get right to the point. I just want to know what this means for us even if it means nothing. Cause I know this was so spur of the moment and I'm... I'm not really expecting anything right away, so..."
