The Promise {Book 1: Harry Styles}

Chapter 14: No one else, but Her

Zayn was still fast asleep as I woke up that morning, his strong arms are still wrapped around my waist and I tried to squirm out of his tight embrace. He was so peaceful at his sleep and I tried my best to not wake him up as I luckily got out of his embrace.

When I thought that I got out of his embrace, his hand yanks me and I fell on the soft bed.

“Please don’t go.” He murmured and opens his eyes. His brown eyes meeting mine as I sat on the edge of the bed, Indian style.

“I have to, Zayn.” I said as I smiled warmly at him. He even looks gorgeous even when he just woke up. When I woke up, I look like a hurricane just past through my hair.

“Stay for breakfast then.” He said as he sat up, his knees brushing to mine and I felt a sudden electric shock hit my body.

“Fine.” I said and I stood up again, hopefully he won’t grab my wrist and pull me again.

“Wait!” He said quickly as I was near to open the door.

“I forgot something.” He said shyly, hiding his face as I saw a bright shade of pink. I never thought boys can blush. They look cute.

I look at him again and knitted my eyebrows giving him the time to continue what he was about to say. A few seconds later, he still didn’t speak. I stood there waiting for him to speak and when it didn’t came I open the door to his room and almost halfway to the hall when a hand pulled me again. I almost stumble on the floor but luckily, his hands were strong to catch me.

What is it with boys pulling me? Seriously?

I was spin around and saw that Zayn’s hand was on my wrist, which obviously pulled me. And when I got my balance back, Zayn stared at me so intently. My eyes meeting his own again.

I forgot to even process what happened next.

Zayn’s lips met my cheeks, giving me a soppy kiss.

“That. I forgot.” He winks at me and ran like a maniac down the hall and to the kitchen. His laugh echoing in the house. I was taken aback with his sudden move so I was frozen on my place.

“Well, that was a move.” A voice from behind me said. I hold onto my chest where my heart was located to stop from breathing fast.

“You scared the shit out of me, Liam.” I said as I saw a smirk on his face.

“Good Morning. Sleep well?” He asks as he wriggled his eyebrows at me.

“We didn’t do anything, okay?” I said as I look at him with disgust.

“I know. I just like seeing you annoyed.” He chuckled at me as I pouted and folded my arms.

“You’re more annoying. For a second I thought you were the ‘good lad’ on the band.” I joke as I laugh at him.

“I am. It’s just that sometimes I need to get loose and have some fun and be…annoying.” He laughs again, and both our laughs echoing louder that Zayn’s awhile ago.

“Let’s go. I’m starving and your prince awaits you!” He jokes as I hit him hard on his arms. He didn’t even got hurt on my punch, I did. He puts his arms around my shoulders like a brother-sister like hold and we both went to the kitchen.

When we reach the end of the stairs the two boys started eating their breakfast. We both enter the kitchen and sat on the chair.

“Good Morning, love.” Niall said as he tried talking with his mouth fall.

“Morning.” I said as I started on eating my breakfast which Zayn puts in front of me. I smiled and gave my ‘thank you’ to him.

Breakfast at Zayn’s flat was incredible. The boys are really fun to hang out with and you can open to them anything and they will listen to you. I even got to know them more, than the last time I saw them.

I didn’t even notice the time and I was drive home and soon I was on my flat lounging at the couch as I tried to recall all that happened last night. I doze off as tiredness hit me again and I enter the land of sleep.

*HARRY’S POV*

(last night)

I got ecstatic when the news came to me, I don’t know if the boys got it too. But I was sure they did, but I just want to see their reactions after they saw it. So I made my way to the other boy’s flat. Louis didn’t bother waking up, so I went on my own.

When I got on the boy’s front door, I got my spare key (which all of us got one) and open the door. The flat was quiet and I know the boys will get mad at me when they hear me scream at their face but they will thank me after that if they heard it.

 I got on Zayn’s room first, since it was the nearest room on the hallway.

I open slightly the door and saw his figure on his bed, I was about to jump on him and scream to his face when I saw another figure move in the dark shadow of his room. The light that was emitting on his windows gives me a clearer view of who’s on his side. I almost think that maybe it was one of his girls that he wants to get in bed but when a familiar brunette haired girl came to my vision I was taken aback and was frozen on my state.

Zayn’s hands are safely embraced around her waist and both of them got so close together you wouldn’t even see an inch. She looks so peaceful and vulnerable when she sleeps and I quickly made my way to the door and slowly lock it without making any sound.

I felt a lump in my throat got stuck up and felt that my eyes are glassy.

I got that one feeling I hate the most—jealousy.

But I don’t have the right to get mad at her because I don’t have a relationship with her. But a part of me just can’t get the jealousy out off me.

Even if how hard I think that maybe some time in the future she will actually like me, but when I got closer and closer to her to express my feelings, someone will just have to be there to ruin it and it’s even harder to get mad at him because he became one of my brother and if that makes them both happy…I think I’ll leave them alone.

But in my mind, there’s still a very slight possibility that she feels the same way as I do. A part of me too saying that I shouldn’t give up and wait for the moment she will actually have feelings for me and another part of me saying that she wouldn’t have feelings for me.

If she actually doesn’t like me then I’ll just find someone better.

But I know to myself that…

There’s no one better than Florence.
