8 year old Harry was drawing upstairs in his room when Anne, his mum called him from downstairs.
"Harry boy , dear come down for a sec"
Harry answered" coming mom"
He ran off to his mom. "Harry , be careful on the stairs. You can slip and get hurt" His mom said.
"Sorry, mom".Harry said
" Ah Harry dear , I called you to say another matter. " Anne said.
"what is it mom?" Harry asked.
" You know our neighbourhood house has been bought by another family and they reached here today. It is one of my old friend, Trisha and her family. I am seeing her after many years. They will be coming for dinner today. There may be 3 of them. She and her 2 kids. So I want you to be ready and pretty by the time baby"
"But , I am pretty ,mummy" Harry pouted.
" Yes you are my baby boy." Anne kissed Harry's cheeks" But be ready"
"Okay,mommy" Harry said and ran up the stairs .

It was dinner time. Door bell to the Styles' house rang. Anne rushed to the door from the kitchen and it was Trisha and her family. Harry was still in his room ,playing a bit after getting ready for this thing his mommy said.

"Come on in Trisha and kiddos" Anne welcomed them.
" Hey Anne" Trisha greeted her.
They came and sat in the living room.
" where is your boy, Anne?" Trisha asked.
"oh, He is probably in his room . I ll call him " Anne said and called out " Harry dear, come down . Meet your new neighbours"
" oh thats too formal, Anne. We are not only neighbours. " Trisha chuckled and said.
"I know..but they dont have to know now." Anne laughed
Harry closed his door and ran all the way down to the living room, giggling and bouncing his curls. He came and stood beside his mommy, too shy to look up,since he saw someone staring at him.
"Hey dear , what is your name?" Trisha asked.
"Harry" He shyly said , without even looking up.
"Aw..he is so cute,Anne. How many years old are you, Harry ? "
"8 " He said.
"Look up Harry.Dont you want to meet them? They are going to be your new neighbours and friends " Anne said to Harry.
Harry nodded and looked up, to see two beautiful hazel eyes staring at him, with a smile on his face. Harry immediately blushed and looked down again.
"Hi Anne Hi Harry, I am Doniya." the elder of Trisha's children said.
"Hi" Harry said in his small voice and gave her a pretty smile .
"Doniya,You remember Anne right. She left Bradford when you turned 5 years. "Trisha said.
" Yes I remember her mom. You both used to hang out together a lot right?"Doniya said.
"Yes Don.we used to . your mom was my best friend And I m happy that I got her back" Anne said."And you handsome, what is your name son?"

"Zayn , maam" Hearing his voice Harry suddenly looked up.Seeing this Zayn winked at him which caused Harry to blush again.Harry didn't know what was happening to him.
"Ah a pretty name for a handsome boy like you. How old are you dear? And call me Anne."
" I m 13 years old,Anne".
Trisha then pulled Harry to sit beside her, which was also near Zayn. Trisha and Anne began their elderly talks.
"You are sooo pretty" Zayn whispered in Harry's ear. Harry looked up , blushing and saw Zayn biting his lip and looking at him. He smiled and looked down.
"Anne, Can i go and see the garden and pool?" Doniya asked.
"Oh yes why not Don? Harry my dear, show them the pool and garden" Anne said ." After you finish, we ll have the dinner.We ll be in the kitchen ,okay"
With that they left the living room .
"Ok mommy" Harry said.
Doniya got up and started walking towards the door herself. Harry got up and waited for Zayn to get up.When he didn't , Harry looked at him who was looking right back at Harry with eyes full of fondness.
"Aren't you coming?" Harry asked in his small voice.
"I am.But I wanna hold hands with you while we are going.Is that okay?"
Zayn asked.
"ye...ah..." Harry said blushing.
Zayn got up and came near Harry.Harry was looking down again.
Zayn raised Harry's chin and made him look at him. Harry's cheeks were a beautiful pink by now.
"Why do u always look down? Am I that much horrible to look at?"Zayn asked frowning.
Harry got sad thinking he made the elder one sad. "No, Its not that. You...you are...soo" Harry stumbled on his words .
"I m ...come on pretty boy...tell me" Zayn asked and started to caress Harry's cheek."Your skin is so soft and smooth.."
Harry was blushing again.
"You are so handsome. Its just I m feeling too shy around you"Harry said,and looked down again.
"Not again Harry. I love seeing your face. You are so pretty.And Your cheeks are pink too just like your lips. And these curls..." Zayn touched his hair "They are so silky and smooth.. Oh my..I never thought a boy would be this beautiful."
Harry smiled widely popping his dimples . Zayn's eye widened "You have dimples too " and he unconsciously poked it which made Harry gasp . Zayn unable to resist it , kissed Harry on the cheek and moved on. Harry was shocked and he stood there touching his cheek exactly where Zayn kissed.
Without seeing Harry behind him, Zayn came back and grabbed Harry's hand and drag him along to the garden.
When they reach the garden, Zayn saw a red rose. He gently plucked it and came towards Harry.
"Here take it Harry...my pretty boy"
Harry blushed worse "thanks"he said
They strolled through the garden a bit and Harry got a lot more comfortable with Zayn.
And they started to talk about things and laughed at anything and everything. They were enjoying the time together when Anne called
"Harry dear, its time for dinner. Come on in. Get Zayn with you too".
Zayn got up and hold out his hand for Harry . Harry took it gladly, got up and gave a sloppy kiss on Zayn's cheek and ran away. Now it was time for Zayn to be shocked.

They happily ate dinner .Zayn and Harry was sitting next to each other, their hands interwined under the table, and played footsie throughout. .
When it was time for the dinner to end, Zayn and Harry was so in love,they didn't wanna part.
Zayn hugged Harry and whispered in his ear " Goodnight love, see you tomorrow. I ll be in ur dreams tonight"
Harry blushed and kissed Zayn's cheek, nodding."Goodnight Zaynie"

"A nickname, huh?"Zayn asked and kissed his pink cheeks.

Their mums were watching them and they were in awe. They wanted to set them up , when they become old. But its like the thing is already done.
"Bye Anne. Nice dinner though. Harry darling ,see u. Trisha said..
"bye" Harry said.
"I love you"Zayn mouthed.
"I love you too " Harry mouthed and blushed.
They bid goodbyes . Harry got ready for bed. But he couldn't sleep. He was smiling non stop thinking about the hazel-eyed boy he started to love .

When green met hazel.
