ZAYN'S POV

I tightened the bow tie around my neck, then loosened it again nervously. Yes, I was nervous. Why? Because Harry and I were going public today, no excuses.

I had been preparing myself for this day ever since I promised Harry. And no backing out now. Harry is right, it's my life and I shouldn't give a damn what people think about me.

I was about halfway ready when Helen informed me that my parents were home and I groaned. Seriously? They don't show up for three weeks and now magically they're here today of all days? Just my luck.

I ruffled my hair as the last touch and texted Harry to be ready in 15 minutes. I shut the bedroom door behind me, tentatively walking downstairs.

But when has anything ever went my way?

My Mum saw me and gushed, pulling me into a tight hug. "Oh my, Zayn! You look so handome! You're going to a Halloween party, I'm guessing?"

"Er, thanks Mum. And yeah," I answered, returning her hug.

"But why don't you have a costume on then?"

"A costume was optional," I shrugged. "Don't take this the wrong way, but what are you guys doing here? I thought you were supposed to leave for a month?" I asked curiously.

"Oh! We got off for the holiday. So, do you have a date?" She enquired curiously.

I shifted nervously. "Um, yeah. I was just gonna go pick my date up. Don't wanna be late!"

"Oh my! Who is she? Do I get to meet her?"

I winced. Should I tell Mum about Harry? No. Not yet. "Er, yeah. We'll see. Later Mum."

"Bye sweetheart! Have fun!"

I shut the front door behind me and walked over to my Range Rover, greeting the gardener on the way.

I jumped in and drove the short distance to Harry's house, eager to see my adorable boyfriend. I parked in front of his house and texted him again, and about 5 minutes later he walked out of the house and my heart stuttered, literally.

He was looking so handsome, so... sexy. I just wanted to take him right here, right in my car. Hell, right on the street. I slapped myself mentally. Control yourself you pervert!

Harry opened the door and slid inside, his cologne wafting through the car. "Hey," he breathed, scooting closer to me and cupping my face, planting a sweet kiss on my lips.

I increased the pressure of my lips on his and carded my fingers through his styled curls. He pulled away, too soon for my liking.

"We're gonna be late!" Harry chuckled, noticing my pout.

"Fine. By the way, you look so gorgeous, it should be a crime," I gave him a sideways smirk. He blushed cutely.

"So do you, maybe even more," he winked at me, then pulled something out of his tux pocket and put it on his head. Kitty ears. As if he didn't look any cuter before. Surprisingly, the kitty ears made him look even more sexy. God damn it.

"Nice costume," I chuckled. He shrugged with a grin. "It is Halloween, after all."
