Chapter 24: Gemes

Previously in chapter 23...

"I ruined us. I've ruined our friendship, haven't I? You don't trust me and I can't stand it. I've never felt like this towards anyone before. I've never had the need so strong to protect someone... The need to have someone in my arms, to have someone be beside me, to be there for someone. You've made me mad for you Emily in such a short amount of time."

"Li...Liam... What are you trying to say?"

"I'm trying to say to you Emily.... That... I'm truly, madly and deeply in love with you. I need you Emily."

"Li... I..."

"Shh. Don't say anything."

"Liam, Liam I can't. I'm sorry. I'm not ready... Can we... Everything you said was beautiul, and I'm touched at the thought of you being in love with me. But, can we... Just stay friends for now? Be how we usually are?"

"Come here." 

"I love you."

"I...I love you too Liam."

What is Maz going to think?

Gemes. (n) The anger one feels inside but does not know how to express it. 

***Zayn's P.O.V***

I would say that the past week has been brilliant, you know. Mine and Dee's relationship but it hasn't. Our life has been about trying to figure out what is up with Liam and Emily, help sort those two out... Well I say we but I've basically just been following Dynasty's orders. That's what all lads do dont they? Else our balls would be on the line and we have fun times with our balls. Anyway, I'm off track. Today is the first day that we have our own day together so I'm planning something special. Dont know what yet, but it will be special. 

Rolling over, I can't help but smile as Dynastys head lays on my pillow. She looks so beautiful asleep, peaceful and calm. 

"Stop staring at me. It's creepy as fuck." 

"Well good morning to you too."  

Her shoulders jiggle as we both let out a small laugh. Let me just point something out before you jump to any conclusions, she SLEPT over. We didn't do anything... I wish... but still we didn't do anything. We wanted to spend some time together so she stayed over for the evening for a movie night. We both ended up falling asleep on the sofa and then being the gentleman I am, I carried her upstairs when I woke up and layed her in my bed. I didn't take advantage, I just slipped into a vest top and shorts and jumped into bed beside her. I usually sleep in boxers but I didn't want to surprise her in the morning if I got a... 

"Zayn? Seriously stop staring at me." 

"Oh shit, sorry." 

Turning herself around, she smiles and snuggles into my chest. I love this fact shes grumpy in the mornings, shes clearly not a morning person, just like me. 

"Zayn? How did we end up here. Last thing I remember was watching scar face in your living room and  Tony said 'You fuck with me, you are fucking with the best!'" 

I didnt think she'd be into that film but she was totally up for it... then she fell asleep. Oh well, it was cute to see her fall asleep in my arms. 

"You fell asleep so I carried you up here, I must be a bad host." I look at her winking, leaning in to kiss her head. Her arm stretches out pushing me away, smurking. "Yeah, you really are! Making the guest fall asleep? Just shows you aren't cut out for it Zee."
