The Ignorant Lie

07

Harry was sitting in the middle of the garden with a clear view of the main door. The air was a bit chilly but he didn't care. He was pretending to listen one his close member talking about something one of his partner has to say about some money transfer.

He was having a hard time focusing on his work because it was getting dark and louis hasn't returned from his 'date'.

He doesn't want to admit but he was seething with jealousy, someone dared to step a foot in his kingdom and stole something of his right under his nose.

Zayn drove louis back to Styles residents. He was still shook at the size of the mansion but one look at louis soft, shy smiling face made him forget everything. He softly looked at him and smiled

"I had a nice time with you, louis. I'd like to spend more time with you and i'm really glad mum choose you i can tell why." He told honestly.

"I'm glad mum chose you too, she was right about you. I'm not going to lie I was terrified and you not being there, at our engagement, made it even worse. It wasn't the best circumstances, our meeting i mean if our mums thoughts we were compatible for each other i want to give us an honest try and see where the future takes us" He said honestly, no reason for lying after they have to share a life.

They both sat in comfortable silence until louis remember what liam said-

If you like him, invite him in I'd be on my best behavior and if you don't kick him out .

Right. Invite him in.

Louis nervously turned towards him and asked "do you wanna come in?"

Zayn smile and nodded. They both walked out of the car and walked inside.

Liam came out of the house with surprised expressions
"Zayn Malik, accounting major. What are you doing here. What a pleasant surprise"

"Liam Payne. Right?" Zayn asked equally surprised.

"So you are infamous zayn, Louis' fiance, What a small world"

Louis looked at liam first and then zayn confused

"Louis Zayn and I used to go to the same college. He was your usual jock, such a playboy. Girls used to break up their boyfriend after getting a single look from him, and him and gigi were the IT couple--" He ranted oblivious to uncomfortable silence around him.

Zayn chuckled cheeks scarlet with embarrassment "That's all in the past now louis I swear, I've told you all about them." He turned towards his fiance trying to appease him discomfort.

Louis forced a smile that didn't reach his eyes, he didn't want to admit but he was fuming with jealousy. They all stood in uncomfortable silence until liam broke it with his chirpy voice still oblivious of the tension.

"Come on Zayn I'll introduce you to Harry." He took his hand and dragged him towards garden excitedly. Zayn throw a nervous glance at Louis who was following them silently, his head hung low.

♨

Harry was on his phone when they all walked up to them he didn't notice them "-- nothing can't be fixed. I don't care how much it costs deal with it Sheeran. Alright Bye."

"Harry this is Zayn Malik. My old classmate and Louis' fiance." He said excitedly still holding zayn's hand. Harry was sitting uninterested, his head snapped up at the mention of Louis' fiance his brows knit together lips pressed in thin line.

"Zayn Malik?" He looked at him up and down eyes lingering on their joined hands for a second.

"Come on sit with us" He motioned at chairs in front of him. Zayn sat nervously looking between louis, liam and harry.
