harry was a little stunned. he was expecting things to get a little weird when zayn told him there is a way to keep him just as young, but he wasn't expecting that. harry was thinking about how bonding in the stories he always reads, goes. a bite on the neck or drinking one another's blood or something. but harry had to sacrifice his soul, literally sacrifice his soul to a devil. that's something he never thought he'd do in his life. but then again, he didn't expect to be dating a demon need.




anyways, it was bizarre. zayn also said that he was have to be on the brink of death for it to even happen, which the idea definitely frightened harry, but technically he'd still be alive right? he doesn't have to fully die, just be close enough to it. how would that happen though? what could harry do to be close to death? biggest question however, is was harry willing to go through with that at all?




what if something went wrong and harry actually dies? that thought scared him. truth is, it wasn't even the thought of him dying that scared him, it was the thought of never seeing zayn again. the thought of zayn living until the end of time being tortured by his guilt for killing harry on accident. how would be able to live with that?





harry couldn't stop himself from thinking about all the little scenarios in his head of every possible outcome. hell, he hadn't even made a decision yet and he was stressing. he could feel zayn's eyes watching him. his hands are sweating and he feels hot, he can't stop moving his eyes around, thinking hard.



"babe?" zayn speaks again after several minutes of silence between the two of them. zayn, of course expected harry to be weirded out by this, which is why he chose not to bring it up before. but harry was asking, and zayn told him exactly what he needed to know. there was no doubt in zayn's mind that harry was his soul mate, and he would kill to bond with harry, but essentially, it was all up to harry. zayn would not force harry to do something he didn't want. hell, if harry wanted to end this right now and save himself the heart break in the end, zayn would have no choice but to let him go.




that's how deep zayn's live for him ran. he was willing to let harry go. he knew from the first beginning before he first spoke to harry, what challenges would be faced if they had got into a relationship. it was hard for a demon to date a human. there was just so many differences. but once their world's collided, they couldn't help but fall for one another.




zayn smiles weakly at harry, caressing his cheek gently. "you don't have to decide now. you don't have to decide ever, if you don't want to. it's your body." zayn reassures him when he sees harry's worrying eyes. harry snaps out of his state, gazing at zayn.



"zayn i-"



"harry, you have years upon years to-"



"what happens?" harry interrupts. zayn stops, tilting his head to the side.




"what, love?"



"i mean, what happens if you uh, t-take my soul?" harry swallows.




"you'll become my soulmate, quite literally." zayn replies.



"oh." harry bites his lip, looking at zayn weirdly. zayn runs a hand through his own hair, sighing softly keeping his face neutral. "so, basically, you want me to sell my soul to you?" harry asked, eyeing zayn suspiciously. zayn shakes his head.



"i don't want you to do anything. it's your choice. do you think that's my intention? to trick you into giving me your soul?" zayn asked, plainly, clearly offended that harry would think so low of him.
