That One Show (z.s.)

Eight

*at the hotel*

Harry made it up to his room without being caught by management or the paparazzi. Once he got inside he shut the door behind him quietly and texted Zayn the room number.

Harry: "room # is 341 xoxo"

Zayn: "hittin me w the xoxo huh?"

Harry: "😌"

Zayn: "be there in a minute baby"

when Harry read the text his heart started pounding because he loved when Zayn called him that. It's been so long since they've been in this spot in their relationship.

Harry: "okay 🦋"

....

When Zayn got to Harry's room he knocked a few times before Harry opened...shirtless.

Zayn: "We need to talk, and you're not making it easy when I can see your bare chest like that."

Harry: "maybe that was the point"

Zayn: "cmon, we really need to chat. you can take your shirt off later...please."

Harry: "fine, if you really hate it that much you could've just told me."

Zayn: "you know I love it, now shut up and come sit"

Harry sat next to Zayn on the pull out couch that consumed the right wall of the hotel room and looked into his eyes.

Harry: "you go first, what do you need to say"

Zayn: "first, I'm sorry for what I said on that interview...I didn't wanna expose us and I was being selfish so I'm sorry...truly."

Harry: "no it's okay, I get it. I would've been mad if people started speculating that we were hooking up randomly."

Zayn: "...I wouldn't have been, I mean...never mind."

Harry: "you know what I meant Z, obviously I love hooking up with you, if I had the choice I'd have it three times a day for fuck sake, but rumors and paps and everything...you know how it gets."

Zayn: "anyway, second, I want to tell you that I never stopped loving you."

Harry's eyes opened wide...like he was stunned to hear those words slip from Zayn's mouth.

Zayn: "...I-I'm Sorry, did I say too much?"

Harry: "no-no Z you didn't. I feel the same way, I'm just awe struck that you said that..."

Zayn saw a tear fall from Harry's eye and he wiped it away from his cheek and smiled.

Zayn: "now you go...I wanna hear what you have to say"

Harry: "can I tell you while we cuddle instead? I've missed your body"

Zayn let out a little laugh and gestures towards the bed...

Zayn: "of course...baby"

Harry blushed to the point where his face turned pink, and Zayn smiled because he knew just how to make him red.
