"Is everything okay Harry?" I ask him anxiously

"Yeah, don’t worry love"

"Are you sure? I can go there if you want?"

"No no no. Everything's fine. I just need to pick up something for Anne first but I'll just catch up with you at the party" he explains

I sigh "Okay, just be careful and call me if you need something"

"Sure. Don't worry okay? I love you"

"Okay okay. Take care...” My eyes shift from the ground to Zayn "... Love you too"

I put my phone down and walk towards Zayn who's casually leaning on his car's hood with his eyes glued on the ground as he waits for me to finish my conversation with Harry over the phone. He looks up when I am just a few feet away

"He's not coming" I said lowly

Worry shows in his face "Is everything alright?"

I nod "He's just gonna catch up with us as the party, besides I told him to call me if something went wrong"

Zayn bobs his head then an awkward silence follows

"Um-.. I think we should leave now" he says

"Leave? What about Jill?" I ask confuse

 "She's with Louis..." he explains with brown eyes focus on me "... He ask her to help him out with the cake since Harry's not around"

"So it's just you and I?" I ask with a little panic on my voice

The corners of his lip pulled up into a small sorry smile "I guess so... Um-.. Is it-.. Do you want me t"

I shake my head, reading what he is thinking before he even says it "its okay... We- we should go"

He nods then went to open the front passenger door for me. I quickly climb in and watch as Zayn makes his way to the driver's seat

Considering what happened last night, being alone with Zayn is the last thing I want to happen. There's just this really awkward vibe in the air right now which made this trip really long and quite

I throw my head back down and stare at the blurry view outside the window

"Still worried about Harry?" Zayn suddenly asks but keeps his eyes glued on the road

I bit my lip "A little. He sounds... unpleasant over the phone"

He finally looks my way with an encouraging smile "Don't worry maybe he just woke up at the wrong side of the bed this morning"

I sigh and nod "I hope you're right. Are you like that when you wake up at the wrong side of the bed?"

He chuckle lowly "Like what?"

"All passive and stuff" I explain making an almost seriously kind of face

He laughs loudly now "Why do you have so many questions shorty?" 

I stuck my tongue out and fold my arms over my chest "Fine! I won't speak anymore"

This seems to amuse Zayn more making him chuckle with delight as he ruffles my hair

"I'm just asking... I didn't say that you should stop talking"

I turn my face away from him still not uttering a single word

He sigh "Sorry okay? I didn't mean it that way... I think he just misses you"

I look up to him curiously " What? But we're with each other last night...”
