The next day when Zayn wakes up, he finds his legs tangle with Harry's whilst the younger lad is staring deep into his eyes.

"Good morning." Zayn smiles sleepily as he wears an arm around Harry's waist and pulls him closer.

"Good morning, Z." Harry smiles as he softly  caress his tanned cheek. Zayn close his eyes when he feels a soft pair of lips touching his forehead.

"Thank you." Harry whispers once he pull away and smiles softly at his husband.

"For what?"

"For not pressing on that subject anymore. For not asking me anymore questions." Harry whispers referring to the conversation they had last night.

Harry was glad Zayn didn't ask him anything more after he told Zayn how he left Harry after the first time they had sex. After that, Zayn just kept holding him, muttering a thousand "Sorry" even after Harry's protest. Zayn held him until both the boys fell asleep from the exhaustion, like that.

"I don't think I was ready to hear anymore either." Zayn whispers as he runs a hand through Harry's  curls. "I can't believe I hurt you like that, Haz. I am so sorry."

"Don't Zayn. What's past is past. Let's not talk about that okay?"

Zayn nods.

"What if I see her again?" He asks. He curses himself mentally when he feels Harry going stiff under his touch.

Really Zayn? Are you kidding me? You're asking Harry about her in the early morning? Like, what the fuck? Somethings really never change, like your stupidity.

Shut the fuck up, mind.

You know I am right.

I am gonna kill you!

Oh love, I am a part of you. You can't kill me duh!

You-

"Well, do you want to talk to her?" Zayn's trail of thoughts break when he hears Harry's voice. He looks down at him then shakes his head.

Of course he don't. Why would he want to keep in touch with his ex?

Harry smiles and gives him a surprise peck on his pouty lips, making the older boy gasp.

"You look so funny." Harry giggles. And okay, Zayn really has to start a research on how a human being can possibly be this cute.

"But on a serious note Zayn, we really have to go get Al from my mum's house. I already miss her." Harry pouts sadly.

Last night, after calling Harry to this apartment, Zayn called Harry's mother and asked her if she could keep Aleeza's for the night to which she said yes. But it's been already a whole day that they have spent without seeing their baby girl, and they're already missing her.

"I am missing her too." Zayn nods sadly. "Let's get ready first then we'll take her to the park, okay?"

"Brilliant." Zayn loves the way Harry's eyes lit up at his suggestion. He also loves the way Harry smiles widely at him.

"Best way to start a Saturday, isn't it?" Zayn chuckles as Harry stretches a bit. He gets up from the bed and pads down to the bathroom.

"Indeed it is. But hey, Haz?"

"Yeah?" Harry turns to him with a raised eyebrow.

"How come this place looks so clean? I mean, I haven't been living here for what? Five months? Then how everything is so shiny and clean?" Zayn's asks as he make gestures with his hands. Harry rolls his eyes fondly at him.

"Well, I come here every once in a while after work, to clean this place. This place means a lot to you, Z. Couldn't let it rot in dust, could I?"

Why is your heart beating so fast, Zayn?

I-I don't know.

Admit you're falling for him.

No, I am not.

Denial is always the first step to love.

Shut up!

"Okay, now listen, Mr. Malik, I am gonna go take a shower, then you gonna treat me to an awesome breakfast before we go to pick up Aleeza. Okay?"

Zayn looks at Harry who has one hand on his hip with playful glare. He's looking at Zayn like he's talking to a child and Zayn finds it cute.

"Okay, Mr. Styles." Zayn chuckles, using the names they used to call by each other when they were in high school.

"It's Styles-Malik for you, boy." Harry flips his hair sassily before chuckling.

Zayn smiles fondly at him before nodding.

"Yeah, Harry Styles-Malik."

"Okay, now I am gonna go now. I can't wait to hold Al." Harry squeals as he pads down to the attached bathroom, closing the door softly behind him.

"Can I join?" Zayn yells from the bed cheekily, already knowing Harry's answer.

"Absolutely not."
