Louis hated Liam. And he hated him even more when he was so God damn right. But he just can't let his hateret cause any wrong to Zayn. So even though he was not sure himself how he was going to convince Zayn, he twisted the door knob and opened the door. And there sat Zayn on his bed ruining the beautiful creation of God. The rose petals where everywhere on his bed. He was picking the rose petals lost in his own thoughts. A small pout on his lips. He then huffed and looked up. Louis was just standing by the door, watching him. Or more like thinking of all the things he was going to tell him.

"Why are you killing those pretty flowers," Louis said sitting beside him.
"Human tents to ruin all the beautiful things," Zayn said letting out a deep breath.
"Yeah right," Louis chuckled.
"Zayn - ," he tried to say but the black haired beauty was quickly cut him.
"No. No I am not going to - ," Zayn said but Louis spoke making him stop.
"Listen to me before you say something. Please," Louis said with hope in his eyes.

"But Louis I have never done anything like that before," Zayn said looking down.
"We all do things for the first time. Yes it is scary at first but that don't mean we are not going to do it. We fight back our fears don't we," Louis said and Zayn nodded.
"Tell me wasn't it scary when you first started working for Liam, " Louis asked.
"It was," Zayn replied.
"But then you adjusted yourself. And in no time you loved working there," Louis said.
"That's because I loved being near Liam," Zayn wishpered but Louis heard it. He kissed his teeth and closed his eyes trying to stay calm. No matter what Liam do. Louis was never going to like him.

"Yeah for whatever reason. But the thing is that you started enjoying your work. And - ," Louis said but Zayn cut him again.
"But Louis I was fine because you were there. And taking up modelling as a permanent job means no you. I will be spending most of the time away from you and Niall. And I am not okay with that. How will I servive ?" Zayn explained. And that's when it hits Louis what he has done. He rubbed his hands over his face and breathed out heavily.

"Okay. Okay now listen. You are 22. A grown up," he said. Isn't it weird that those words were coming out of his mouth ? Because whenever anyone tried to tell him that Zayn was 22 , he replied by saying ' he is only 22'.
"Listen Zayn," he said turning towards him and taking his hand in his, "I know you liked your old job. But it was never meant for you. I asked you to interview for the job because at that time I didn't wanted you to go anywhere away from me. I wanted you to be infront of me all the time and I thought if you somehow got that job it will be easy. But I also knew that one day you have to go out on your on."

Zayn knew Louis was right. He was not always going to work as somebody's secretary. He always wanted to be an artist. But he never got the opportunity to attend any Art school.

"You are so talented Zee. Please don't waste this. You are so young. You can achieve so much. Please Zaynie just think about it, yeah. We all wants the best for you," Louis smiled hoping for his brother's agreement.
"I - I need sometime please," Zayn said.
"We have a lots of time Zee. Take as much as you need," Louis patted his shoulder and walked out of his room giving his some privacy.

Zayn laid down on his bed and turned to face the window. He saw the clouds covered the sky. But still they can't hide the sun. Every now and then it the brightest star was peeking out and then hiding behind the dark grey clouds. Zayn sat up and grabbed his sketch book and pencil set. He drew what he saw. After 15 minutes he closed the sketch book and kept it aside. He sighed and leaned back against the wall.

He always wanted to do something big. He wanted to be an artist and wanted to be know by all his masterpieces. He wanted to collaborate with big people. He wanted to have his own clothing business too. And maybe Liam brought that opportunity to him.

After his mind ran a marathon he finally came to a conclusion. He knew what he had to do.

He slowly got out of his bed and made his way downstairs. He was rubbing his eye from the back of his hand climbing down the steps one by one.

Liam and Louis was discussing something in a low voice while the files were scattered all over the dining table laptop was on and Louis was writing something on the note pad while carefully listening to Liam. The only time they are together without any argument was when they both work.

"Hey Zee, want some coffee," Eleanor asked holding a coffee mug.
Zayn nodded reaching for it ," what time is it ?"
"half past four," she said picking up her coffee mug from the table.

"El let's go for a walk," Zayn suggested. He just wanted to go out for a while. To clear his head.
"Leaving them alone," she asked pointing her thumb out to them.
"They are working. Let's go," Zayn said getting up and grabbing his coat and gloves.

After they wore their warm clothes they both left the house. Zayn stuffed his hand in his pocket and Eleanor held his arm holding his close. They walked in silence. Chilly air passing by them making them shivering as it hits their face. They walked into a small cafe and ordered two hot chocolate.

"I'm - I think I will sign the contract tomorrow," Zayn said looking out of the window.
Eleanor squeake hugging him tightly. She kissed his cheeks multiple times making Zayn push her away lightly.
"Okay okay stop !!Ewww," Zayn said wiping his cheeks.
"Shut up ! I'm so happy you have no idea ! I'm so proud of you," she said joining her hand and placing them under her chin.

Zayn smiled down at her. He didn't knew what he had done to deserve such supportive family.
"Let's go home," he said and she nodded happily.

They ordered two hot chocolate to go before they left the small cafe.

Zayn smiled to himself. He hoped everything will be fine. He hoped for the best for everyone. And he couldn't wait to tell those two people who matter the most to him.

The front door opened and a loud female voice filled the silent house.
"Gentlemen !!! Gather around we have an announcement to make!!" She yelled loudly.
Louis came out rushing.
"What ? What happened," his voice full of concerned.
"Relax babe. Where is Liam," she asked.
"Here. What happened," Liam came out of kitchen holding a bowl of popcorn.
"Nothing. Just take a seat and then we will tell you," she said and both the men sat down on the couch. Zayn was nibbling on his lips waiting for them to settle down.

"Okay Zayn have something to tell you both," she said looking back at Zayn.
The younger lad then cleared his throat before he began, "umm yeah. I - I think I will sign the contract - ."
He wasn't even finished and Liam pulled him in a tight hug. He then kissed him hard and Zayn giggled pulling back.
"I'm so fucking proud on you," Liam told him smiling widely. Zayn's eyes became glossy while he smiled down at him.

Louis then cleared his throat and Zayn pulled away from Liam completely.
"I know you can do this," Louis said hugging him firmly rubbing his back, "I'm so happy for you."

After zayn broke the new to them they all prepared a happy meal and had a great dinner. It was midnight and Zayn was sitting on his bed leaning against the wall sketching. Liam was sleeping peacefully beside him. Zayn was tired after the hot makeout session but he wanted to write down how he was ready to see the world in his diary. He wrote how thankful he was for every  single one of them. How he was falling for Liam more and more day by day.

The new flower of love has bloomed and it's beautiful.
