He couldn't help but to feel this huge warmth throughout his body as he woke up in his own home with Harry cuddled into his side. He was going to get off the couch but when he moved Harry's hands fisted into his shirt and he mumbled, "No don't leave." Zayn chuckled before dropping a kiss to Harry's cheek before pulling the blanket up more onto their bodies. Harry's eyes opened and he watched as the sunlight coming through the window hit them, making the green sparkle.

Harry yawned, "This couch is the most comfortable couch I have ever slept on in my life." Zayn smiled, "Wait until you get in my bed." Harry raised an eyebrow and Zayn laughed, "Like...you know what I mean." Harry kissed him on the nose, "I really like your place. Do you get bored here when you're alone?" Zayn nodded, "Yeah, I just sleep a lot or watch movies."

Harry turned onto his back and stared up at the ceiling, "I still live with my mom...wow I'm a loser." Zayn slipped his hand underneath Harry's shirt and rubbed his boyfriend warm stomach, "Would it be crazy if I asked you to live with me?" Harry looked at him, "Um..I don't know."

Zayn bit at his bottom lip, "Because I want you to....you know if you want to." He watched as Harry twisted his mouth a bit, clearly in thought.

"Well, I will like to live with you but only one condition."

Zayn smiled, "And what is that condition?" Harry sat up, "I want a dog."

Zayn nodded his head, "We can do that. But the dog has to be small, they don't allow large dogs in the condo." Harry beamed, "That's totally okay, oh my gosh I can't wait to like officially move. Oh gosh I wonder how my mother is going to take this news?" Zayn pulled Harry down on top of him, "We can tell her together."

Harry kissed him softly before pulling away, "I love you, Ze." Zayn ran his fingers through Harry's hair, "I love you too babe."

"Zayn! Oh it's so nice to see you." Johanna hugged him tightly before pulling away, "You look good, where's Harry?"

He walked into the warm house, "He wanted to get some more sleep so he's back at my place. He told me to tell you hi though and he will come see you tomorrow." Johanna shut the door, "Okay well if I'm right you're here to see Louis?"

Zayn stuffed his hands into the pockets of his jean jacket, "Yeah, I know I'm the last person he wants to see but we need to talk this out." She smiled, "I'm happy that you chose to do this, I would hate to see you two spilt after being much like brothers for so long." Zayn nodded in agreement, "So he's upstairs?" Johanna walked him over to the stairs, "Right in his room, don't know why he just go to his own place but whatever. Good luck."

Zayn walked up the steps, wood groaning underneath his feet and when he got onto the second floor his palms started to feel sweaty. But he knocked on Louis's door before opening it a bit and slipping inside. He shut it and Louis pulled the cover down from off of his head, "What are you doing here?" Zayn sat down on the desk chair, "Because we need to stop acting like children and talk."

Louis sat up, "So talk."

Zayn sighed, "Look we have been best friends for the longest and this is stupid. I know Harry is your brother and I know you told me not to go and mess with him but I don't like the fact that you kept saying all I do is break hearts. Yes I've broken my fair share of hearts but I also actually dated people who I really liked and who fucked me over as well. Harry is not just any person and you know I would never hurt your brother Louis. If I knew I was I wouldn't even have dated him in the first place. But all of this arguing and us canceling shows because of this is very stupid. I just want us to be okay again."

Louis bit his lip, "I'm really sorry Ze...I was just...I've always been the one to look after Harry and you know I couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that out of all people, he likes you. And I was so pissed off about it I wasn't actually thinking and I felt like an idiot during that interview and just everything."

Zayn got up and sat down on the edge of the bed, "So can we be okay again please? I miss hanging out with you and so does Harry."

Louis smiled, "Yeah we're okay." Zayn leaned over and hugged him, "This was easier than I expected." Louis laughed as they pulled away, "Yeah I had a lot of time to think things over while here by myself. By the way I seen the interview of you and Harry. I have to admit you guys are quite cute."

Zayn smiled, "Yeah..I love him." Louis nodded, "I can tell, just promise me you won't hurt him." Zayn nodded, "I promise, I swear I won't hurt him. He's important to me, I'll be even more upset with myself if I hurt him." Louis patted his shoulder, "But neither of us will be more angry than my mom who is probably standing outside the door right now." Right on cue the door opened and Johanna spoke, "Mhm Louis is right, don't go hurting my baby boy Zayn. He's too fragile for that."
Zayn got up, "I won't, now Louis come on and get up. Want to go out and get some food."

Louis grinned, "As long as we go to that diner with the mini muffin basket." Zayn rolled his eyes but nodded his head, "Yeah yeah okay."
