My Son and My Boy Band Boyfriend

Chapter 11. Love Actually

Chapter 11

“You alright Mate?” asked Zayn as I stepped out on the balcony with him

I sighed and leant next to him, watching the smoke billow out of his mouth slowly and float up from the tip of the lit cigarette

“Yeah” I groaned, running my hands over my face and through my hair “Half-Half”

“Its Riley isn’t it”

"Is it that obvious?" 

"To me it is, I'm 1/4th of your best mate, I know when your down about a girl"

I groaned again "I'm just so freaking confused"

The light flickered on in the apartment upstairs and I could hear Draco laughing and splashing in the bath while Riley tried to clean him for bed 

"About what?" Zayn asked taking another drag "You like Riley, she thinks your a good sort, make a subtle move and if she refuses it you go on being friends, if she accepts it you move forward from there" 

"If I try that I'll end up freaking one of us out, myself or her"

"So freak out" he shrugged "Everyone gets freaked out at the beginning of a relationship, it's normal"

"Zayn" I moaned "This isn't a normal relationship"

He laughed "I know that, I've been there remember, with Rebecca"

I sighed "Then help me, none of the other boys know what they’re talking about"

He chuckled lowly, taking another drag "Didn't think they would"

I smiled 

"You really want to be with this girl"

I nodded slowly "I want to at least try..."

He grabbed my neck softly and smiled at me "Then come on" he stubbed out his cigarette and lead us back inside to his apartment 

"What are we doing?" I asked as Zayn picked up his phone 

"Shhh!" he hissed "Harry- you, me, Liam, Niall, Lou and Riley, movie night tonight" 

I frowned at him as he smirked 

"I have a plan"

Riley’s POV

"Riles" smiled Harry as he walked in, smiling at the little boy sloshing 

“Hey Haz, what’s up?” I asked as I wiped some water from my cheek

“Zayn called, having a movie marathon tonight, can you stay?”

“I don’t know” I sighed and grabbed a towel for Draco “I haven’t been home in a couple of days, I need clothes, Draco can’t keep wearing the same clothes, neither can I and I’m meant to be living with Stella, not here”

“We like you living here, you keep us sane and Draco keeps us on our toes” he smiled, walking over and picking the little boy from the tub and letting him drip as I wrapped the towel around him

“I can’t keep wearing your clothes Harry”

“Then go down stair and get Lou to drive you home, pack a bag for you and Drake and come back to put him to bed and for movie night”

I bit my lip “Will you be okay with him alone?”

“Not alone” he smiled “Liam’s across the hall, I’ll go over there or he can come here, it’ll be fine”

I smiled “Okay, I’ll run across the hall and see him and then get Louis to drive me”

Harry smirked as I kissed his cheek and Draco’s head and jogged downstairs

“Louis, I’ll be back in a minute, stay here” I called, flinging open the door and running across the hall to Liam

I knocked and he answered immediately

“What’s up Riley?” he asked

“I’m going out for a minute; Harry has Draco, make sure he doesn’t kill himself or my son” I pleaded

“They’ll be fine, Daddy direction to the rescue”

I smiled “Thank you”

He nodded and I ran back into the apartment to find Harry and Louis standing by the lounge with Draco in his fluffy white towel still in Harry’s arms
