Me, Him and the Moon

TWENTY

Zayn and Liam leave Southall as decided and drive to

Jimmy's house.

Liam rings the door bell, Jimmy answers the door and invites them in. Suddenly a sweet little girl comes and wraps her arms around Liam. She says, "Dad doesn't let me have chocolates." Liam hugs her back and picks her up. He kisses her on the cheeks and then makes her sit on the nearby sofa. Liam puts his hands inside his pocket and pulls out a handfull of chocolate.

ZAYN: "When did you get these?" LIAM: "When you were placing the order." A brightly smiling Zayn nods while looking at the little girl.

Meanwhile Niall and Harry are working on some songs together at Niall's place and Louis has gone home to see his

sisters.

NIALL: "So how's it going on between you and Lou?" HARRY: "It's good."

NIALL: "Yeah he's a good lad." HARRY: "He's pretty frank and says whatever he wants to. That's what I like about him."

NIALL: "Yea he's the sassy one. So what's up with Zayn and

Liam?

HARRY: "They are on a date, don't know anything else." NIALL: "Ask them what's going on!"

Harry takes out his phone and messages Zayn.

JIMMY: "Zayn you should be prepared, they'll spread rumours about you. Bad ones. Really bad ones." ZAYN: "I'll do anything to get outta this." LIAM: "Zayn can I talk to you for a minute?" ZAYN: "Yeah Sure!"

Liam takes him to another room.

LIAM: "Zee, they'll try to take it all away from you, your work, your name, respect, fame. Everything." ZAYN: "Will they take you away too?" LIAM: "What?" (Confused)

ZAYN: "Will they take you from me?" LIAM: "Of course not, I'm with you."

For some minutes both of them keep looking at each other with a fond smile. Liam holds Zayn's hands.

LIAM: "Don't worry. We'll get through this. And I'll be by your side through it all."

Zayn holds Liam's face in his hands and presses a gentle kiss on his lips. Liam is in shock, it takes a moment for him to realise what just happened.

Zayn steps back but Liam isn't ready to let go, at least not yet. He pulls zayn by waist and kisses him back. After some seconds, both of them pull away. They smile at each other and go back to the hall, this time, hand in hand.
