Zayn's POV

I watched as she interacted with the other boys, admiring how well they took to her. They had always treated her sort of like a little sister, ever since we had been formed. She and Liam were pretty close, I don't know how that happened. But it did.

When she came with him earlier, I felt a sting of jealousy, but I didn't act on it. I couldn't act on it.

Liam was her best friend, I could tell that I was being replaced. She and I weren't on the best of terms and though we made up, I could still feel our distance. I didn't want it to be like this. Never did I think that we would come to this place in our friendship.

She loved me, as more than a friend, and I loved her the same. But I couldn't just leave my fiancée because I felt this way. I couldn't come to terms with my feelings, well I could, but I couldn't admit them to anyone else. I was safer this way. I didn't want to risk my friendship with Liv by going into a relationship and finding out that we couldn't work together. I couldn't end my relationship with Perrie to see if my feelings for Liv were real.

I'm conflicted with myself. And in the end, I knew that I would be losing one of the girls. Most-likely Olivia because she was the one being hurt through this whole thing.

"Zayn." I heard her voice pull me out of my thoughts. I looked up and saw that everyone was looking at me. I smiled, of course it didn't reach my eyes, and shook my head.

"Sorry. What's up?" I asked, sitting back on the couch.

"Everyone is getting ready to leave," Harry said, standing up. Everyone followed lead, getting their coats and whatnot. I stood up and watched as Liv stood by Liam. They were deep into a conversation, one that I wanted to interrupt so badly.

"Liv, let's hang out," I said, walking over to her and Liam. They looked at each other, like they had already planned to do something. Which I hope to God she says no to. "Please," I begged.

"Li, we can go to watch that movie tomorrow," she said.

"Sounds good. I'll text you," he said, hugging her. A little too long at that. "Bye, Z." I nodded at him before he left.

"So yes?" I asked, grinning widely.

"Yes," she chuckled, noticing how excited I had gotten.

We said bye to the other boys before meeting up with security. There had been fans crowded all over the building, so we needed help getting to the car. We were driving and there was little tension as she talked about work. I quite enjoyed listening to her talk, it was as annoying as when other people did it.

"What are we going to do?" she asked, sitting back in her seat.

"Let's get some food, maybe rent movies, and go back to mine."

"Are you sure it's okay to go back there?" she asked skeptically.

"Why wouldn't it be?" I asked, glancing over at her before looking back at the road. We were nearing the heart of the city.

"Perrie doesn't exactly like me and you live her," she mumbled the last part.

"Her and the other girls are out of town," I said, ignoring the last part. She only nodded as a result, making the car quiet.

We pulled up to a strip mall that held various stores and restaurants. I got out of the car and so did she, both of us looking at the buildings in front of us.

"Chinese?" she asked. Her eyes were glowing, that deep green making me swoon just a little. I couldn't say no to the look she was giving me.

"Sure," I said, pulling her towards the restaurant. We stood in line, eying everything in the warmers.

"It all looks so good. What are you getting?" she asked, moving back and forth on her heels.

"I agree with you on getting it all. Should we just do that?"

"No because we won't eat it all," she scoffed.

"We can try," I chuckled. She giggled and before she could answer, one of the workers asked what we had wanted. I told her that we would take on of everything, which earned us a weird look.

Not long later, we were walking out with various bags that held containers of food. I noticed a movie rental box and motioned for her to follow me. I stopped and put down the bags, going into search for movies that we could watch.

Her dark hair was flowing in the windy, making it cover her face. She continuously tried to blow it out of her face, but it didn't work. It made me chuckle. I got distracted by her.

"Shut up and chose a movie," she muttered, putting her bags down and pushing her hair out of her face.

"Yes ma'am," I said, chuckling at her and turning back to the machine.

I picked a few movies and we made our way back to the car.

The moment we got back to my house, we shooed all the pets into another room and set up the food containers. I grabbed us some drinks while she put in the first movie. She had always been comfortable in my house, seeing as she used to spend most of her time here. Before Perrie moved in, of course.

We sat back and the movie began. Both of us passed containers back and forth, grabbing a different every once in a while. She hogged all of the fried rice thought, I knew I should have gotten more than on container. It was her favorite.

"Share," I said, grabbing the box, attempting to take it from her.

"You should have gotten more," she mumbled with her mouth full. But of course I wasn't going to say anything because she'll throw it back at me. Her grip was tight on the container, so I ended up letting her have it.

"I thought you would've shared with me," I said, sticking my tongue at her.

"You're such a baby," she said. "I'll share."

She held the container out to me, which I gladly took from her. I took a huge spoonful and gave it back to her. She smiled and took it back.

"Thanks," I mumbled with my mouth full.

"Stop talking with your mouth full," she imitated my voice. And there it was. She busted out in hysterics as I glared at her.

We were really stuffed, both of us laying out on the couch. It was big enough for the both of us, well it could fit like ten people on it. She as laid on way and I was laid the other.

"I'm tired," she said, reaching over to grab the blanket that was placed on the back of the couch.

"Then sleep," I mumbled, already dozing off myself. She said something, but I didn't hear it before I fell asleep myself. So much for watching all the movies we rented.

Sometime later...

I heard the front door slam close, pulling me awake. I looked around as my eyes started to focus. The movie that we had been watching was on it's title page and Liv was passed on the side of me. She must've of drifted over to my side in her sleep. I smiled before I heard someone clear their throat.

I completely forgot how I had been woken up.

Shit it was Perrie.

"What is she doing here? And why are you two laying together?" she asked, placing her hands on her hips and glaring at me.

I'm in deep shit.
