Safe and Sound (Niall Horan & Zayn Malik FanFiction)

Chapter Ten: Just Trust Him.

Leoni's POV.

A knock at my bedroom door wakes me instantly. I look at Zayn, still sleeping with his head in my lap.

"Come in." I whisper, hoping whoever is at the door can hear me. They did, and Maja shuffles into my bedroom.

"Hey sweetie, what's up?" I ask while playing with Zayn's hair.

"Is he okay?" She asks, pointing at Zayn.

"No he's really poorly, I'm looking after him, what's wrong?"

"I was making out with Niall at his house and completely freaked out and made him bring me home!'' She huffs, sitting in the space on the bed next to me.

"Why did you freak out?" I whisper, pulling the blanket over her, making sure not to wake up Zayn in the process.

"I don't know, he's nothing like that guy, he smells different, looks different, acts different, kisses different, there's nothing the same but I just can't help thinking he'll do the same!"

"Babe, he's so lovely, he'll never hurt you." I reassure.

She nods, "I know! I frustrate myself so much!"

Zayn coughs loudly, waking himself up.

"Why's there another person in your bed?" He asks groggily, Maja explains what happened to him.

"Niall wouldn't hurt a fly, I promise." Zayn smiles, staying in his sleeping position, head in my lap and arms around my thighs, cuddling close.

"I know, I just can't be alone with him, it scares me." She whispers.

Zayn nods, "He really likes you Maj, you should talk to him, he's probably freaking out right now."

"What if he wants S.E.X." She spells out the word sex like a child.

Zayn laughs, "Niall's like a puppy, you know? He just wants someone to cuddle and look after him, the furthest he'd go without your permission is probably lick your face because he's hungry or something!''

I smile reassuringly at Maja, she's so much braver than she thinks.

"Yeah, thank you guys." She grins and hugs me quickly before disappearing out of my bedroom door.

"Thank you for being so supportive with Maja." I whisper to Zayn and kiss his forehead.

"It's fine, she needs all the support she can get." He smiles, drawing circles on my bare knee with his fingertip.

''Z! That tickles.'' I giggle and he grins and kisses my knee.

"Are you feeling better yet?"

He shakes his head, "Not really, have you got any more pain killers?''

"Yeah." I grab the pills off of the bedside table and pass them to him with a bottle of water.

"Thank you, the flu sucks."

"I got my flu shot." I smirk.

"Well you're a clever clogs aren't you missy." He smiles and pulls me onto his lap so I'm straddling him.

Niall's POV. (Strong language.)

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuckery fuck.

I've screwed it all up. God Niall you're so stupid.

Why the fuck did I do that?

I know about what happened so why the actual fuck did I just do that?
