Ready To Run

••Three••

The yellow shining sun started rising from the ground. It filled the sky with mighty colours of red and splashed the clouds with endless rays of pink. It was bright and mesmerising as it invited Zayn to stare, deep into the horizon, through the opened window. Harry was sound asleep next to him on the bed , and everything seemed to be in balance right now. As he closes his eyes again he felt the heady pull of his dreams, beckoning him back to play. Forcing himself to stay awake, Zayn blinked his eyes down at he toddler curled up to his side, and smiled softly. Running his fingers through the curly hair, the alpha leaned down and pressed a kiss to Harry's forehead. His wolf wanted more, but Zayn wouldn't allow it. Well, not yet at least. Harry was still a child who didn't know any better. Yes they are meant to be, but that still doesn't change the fact that Harry is still five. Settling with just the soft kiss, Zayn rested back into the mattres and sighed.

He knew he was getting himself in way to deep already. He knew one of theses days, his wolf might slip and end up doing more than soft kisses the the orehead or cheek.That one day his wolf will want want and want, but sadly wont be able to have. Zayn dreaded the thought of that day, but just like the sun there was nothing anyone could do to stop it. Looking down when he felt Harry move. Zayn watched as Harry slowly and reluctantly uncover his face. He blinks then closes his eyes, and blinks again. Streaks of sunlight penetrate the window and blind him. Harry sits up and rubs his chubby little knuckles onto his eyes.

"Good morning sleepy head." Zayn said softly as he lets his arms lightly rub over Harry's warm back. Harry subconciously leans back into Zayn's hand, and lets out a cute quiet yawn before muttering out his own good morning.

They stayed in bed for a few minutes, with Harry laying down again, with his head laid on Zayn's chest and Zayn's arms wrapped around him. Their breaths in unison, along with the way their chests were rising and falling. In that moment Zayn knew everything would be alright. Knows that when the time was right for harry, that they could possibly be together one day in a romantic way. As long as he kept shifting his age and the way he looked wouldn't matter. He'd still look around Harry's age and everything will be perfect. So as they started their morning with a not so healthy choice of doughnuts and hot chocolate, and then an hour of them going on a walk together in their wolf forms. Zayn knew that Harry was a part of him, and that as long as he was with him there was no place he would rather be.
