The Boy Across The Lake (BoyxBoy)

Choices of the future

Tom, obviously, for those who don't know what he looks like

Zach's POV

I combed my hair, sighing as it flopped in the wrong way, yet again. I have spent the last 30 minutes on trying to get my hair just right and I'm starting to feel I'm the one loosing.

"Calm down mate" Zayn said putting his hand on my shoulder, "you look great!"

"Thanks man" I mumble not satisfied, "so when does her plane touch down?"

"She should be here any minute actually, never mind the plane" he laughed moving away to look out the window, "I hope she finds her way alright, well Louis as he's driving."

"Don't worry it'll be fine" I reassured "its not like there's any way to get lost, its mainly one street here."

"I guess, and thanks for changing plans a little to fit us in" Zayn stated, "I wonder why the zoo needed Corey so badly."

"Well there was sorta the big accident, unless you forgot?"

"No, no I certainly didn't, but I wonder if something got out or anything, I guess it was a goo thing that she called if it was as I wouldn't want to be there with some beast on the loose" Zayn said plopping onto my bed.

"Yeah I feel you, you don't even know how bad it could be" I laughed, "I just Corey's okay with being all alone later when he gets back."

"Nah he has Tom, that's close enough to a human companion"

"Speaking of Corey what's up with you and him? You seemed to have taken a liking to him or something of the sort" I questioned honestly curious.

"No, well yes in a way, I just feel a little defensive towards him as he reminds me of my sister who commuted suicied when I was younger. That just hit me at home so I just want to make sure he's okay, but besides that there isn't any deeper, sexual reason" Zayn said choking up a little.

"I'm sorry man, I didn't know" I came over to him and hugged him.

"Yeah it's no problem" Liam said as we ordered popcorn, "I insist on paying."

"Fine by me" Zac said, arm slung over Luke's shoulders.

"Well of course it is you dick" Harry scoffed, "Liam lets just split it."

"No just let me pay its the least I can do" Liam argued.

Seirra sighed rubbing her temples as Niall was hugging her from behind, "at this point I don't care who pays, just someone buy it!"

Liam turned to the teenaged cashier who was smacking his gum, obviously bored out of his mind, and handed him a bundle of dollars "here, keep the change."

"Finally!" Seirra said snatching a bag and started eating the popcorn,"what movie are we seeing again?"

"Godzilla" Louis sad as we walked towards the screening room.

"That's still out?" I asked, it came out in the summer didn't it?

"You should know, you bought the tickets" Harry laughed.

"Whatever I'm just excited to finally see it!" Liam squealed as we entered the darkening room, commercials playing on the screen.

We picked a row in the middle, no one else was in there so we just talked and goofed around until the movie finally started.

I put my arm across Liam's shoulder and looked down the row seeing everyone else snuggled up with one and another. I sighed happily, content as Liam snuggled closer to my side.
