"ZAAAAAAYN!"

Zayn laughed and hugged Aisha when she ran over to him

He smiled and she giggled "I missed you!"

"Me too.. But you know work keeps me busy"

Aisha rolled her eyes "Yeah, busy being a hero. All that useless stuff"

Zayn chuckled "Where did you get all the sass from? Mama and baba wouldn't slapped the back of my head"

Aisha shrugged "They love me"

"We love you both equally"

Zayn smiled "Hi mama"

"How've you been Zayn?"

Zayn shrugged "I'm alright" He looked at Aisha who was trying to climb the side of his leg while holding his hand "What are you doing kid?!"

Aisha laughed and then let go of Zayn's hand and wrapped herself around his leg

"Can you turn me into a monkey?"

"N-No... I don't... Think so"

"MAMA. MONKEY"

"Aisha! Let your brother go and come here"

Aisha pouted "No! I barely see hiiiim"

"Hello!"

Aisha let go of Zayn's leg and turned around

"JULIA!"

~~~~~

Zayn was in the kitchen cooking with his mum

"When will Liam be here?"

Zayn looked at his watch then went back to cooking "In an hour maybe... He's spending sometime with Dylan and Niall"

"How are they?"

Zayn smiled "Good. They just came back from their honeymoon."

"Theyre absolutely lovely... What about Louis?"

"Well... He moved closer to Harry so I think that's-"

"LIAM!" "Hi bubba!"

Zayn smiled and looked at his mum who nodded with a smile "Go"

Zayn walked out of the kitchen and saw Liam hugging both girls by the open door

"Ok you both go away"

Aisha gave Zayn an offended look as Julia dragged her into the living room

"Hey babes"

Liam smiled, Zayn walked over to him and put his hand on Liams hips before they kissed

"Come in"

Liam sighed "I can't..."

"Why?"

"Wren won't come in..." Liam whispered

Zayn furrowed his brows and whispered "Why?"

"She doesn't believe that you're here..."

Zayn blinked "WREN!"

A little head poked in from behind a wall beside liam

She smiled when she saw zayn and ran towards him and he picked her up

"What did I say about giving dad a hard time?"

"It's a nono..."

"And what did you do?"

"A nono... But he didn't get me nuggets!"

"I did get you nuggets! You ate them with Niall"

"Oh..."
