Move In With Me ?

Chapter 9

It was almost ten at night when Liam came back to his apartment. Ruth pulled the cover over sleeping Zayn and took the empty blow of soup away. She closed the bedroom door and turned around to found her brother entering the apartment.

"hey," Liam said dropping the on the floor near the couch.

"Liam we need to talk," Ruth said and disappeared in the kitchen.

Liam frowned and followed her.

"what you wanna talk about," he asked leaning against the kitchen door frame.

"Liam are you sure Zayn is just your room mate," she asked putting the bowl in the sink.

"umm yeah. Why are you asking," Liam asked in confusion.

"well while searching for medicine box I found this," she said showing him the bottle of birth control pills, "do you have an explanation for this ?"

Liam closed his eyes and he kissed his teeth. How carelessly Zayn kept it in the bathroom !

"what ?" she asked raising her brows.

"um that.....yeah he takes them," Liam said and his sister looked at his very disapprovingly.

"don't play with him," she said in a very strict tone.

"it's not like I am the only one involved in this. He would have said if he had had a problem. He is into this as much as I am," Liam said making his sister sigh.

"well you are an adult you can do whatever you want. But just don't break his heart. He is such a lovely boy Liam," she said and Liam shook his head.

"I would break his heart if there was any string attached. But there is not. So chill. And what do you think I am ?" Liam asked looking dead at his sister.

"A fuckboy. Don't give me that look. I know you since the day you were born. Now go take bath I will warm up the food," she said and Liam rolled his eyes walking out of the kitchen. He took a quick bath and went inside his room. Zayn was sleeping soundly. Liam chose not to disturb him and went into his closet. He wore his sweat and tee and exited his bedroom.

Ruth was sitting on the dinning table doing something in her phone.

"how are you going to go home," he asked sitting in front of her.

"what I have husband for," she said keeping her phone aside. Liam smirked and served her food. Both of them had their dinner enjoying each other company and having a great laugh.

Liam missed having some time with his family.

Soon Ruth left and Liam went into his room. He stripped his clothes and got in bed. He leaned towards Zayn and touched his forehead. And it was normal. He laid down on his back and closed his eyes. Soon the sleep took over him and he drifted into slumber.

The next morning it was raining quite heavily. Liam woke up and looked outside his balcony. No sign of sun in the sky. Dark gray cloud covered the sky pouring down the rain non stop. Liam looked beside him. Zayn, even in the sickness looked gorgeous. He turned towards him and reached for his face. He touched his cheek and it felt warm. He still had fever.

"Zayn," the burnet man called his name. Zayn very slowly opened his eyes. He blinked couple more times before opening them properly.

"how are you feeling," Liam asked caressing his soft cheek.

Zayn pouted shaking his head. He hated being ill.

Liam smiled a little at him.

"okay how about you go fresh up while I prepare you breakfast. And after that we can watch a movie or something. How does that sounds," he asked and Zayn nodded.
