Hold On To You

7

"Good morning, Liam." Liam looked up from his computer and saw Zayn standing there with a grin on his face. Liam had spent the evening yesterday, looking at better apartments that he could move into.

Liam knew that he wanted Zayn and he was attracted to him, but he was a CEO and he didn't want to seem like some sort of gold-digger. Which he wasn't. "Good morning" Liam replied with a shaky smile on his face. What did Zayn want? Liam thought as he stared at the man that was in
front of him.

"What can I do for you?" Liam asked the man who was standing in front of him wearing a designer suit.

"I was wondering if we could talk in my office later." Zayn told him.

Why did Zayn want to talk to him? Was it something bad? Liam couldn't help but wonder about that.

"Is something bad?" Liam couldn't help but ask. Zayn grinned again.

"I hope not. We'll talk later, I'll come and get you." Zayn told him and then turned around and left. Liam was left staring after him with a weird expression on his face. What was that all about? Liam thought but he managed to look back at the computer screen.

Liam tried to focus on his work for the next couple of hours, but his mind drifted back to Zayn and why he wanted to talk to him. His mind was a wreck.

He wanted to find out what it was, but he didn't want to find out at the same time. He was nervous.

He was in the middle of working on
something on his computer when Zayn's voice interrupted him.

"Can I talk to you now?" Zayn asked, Liam looked up and nodded.

"Sure." Liam replied and got up from his chair and started following Zayn.

He took a breath when he was in the elevator
that was going up to Zayn's office. He released it shakily.

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Liam asked Zayn when they went into the office. Zayn went behind the desk and gestured for Liam to sit down. "You can sit down." Zayn told him.

Liam slowly lowered himself into the chair that was in front of the desk. "So, now can you tell me what you wanted to talk about?" Liam asked Zayn. Zayn raised an eyebrow at him.

"So, there's that fiery temper that I have been waiting to come out." Zayn murmured.

Liam just chuckled. Of course, Zayn would
think that.

"So, I have to go to a charity ball, and I was wondering if you would come with me?" Zayn asked.

Liam was stunned. Zayn wanted to go to a charity ball with him. Why?

"Why do you want to go with me?" Liam asked finally after a few minutes of silence.

Zayn looked surprised. "Why can't I go with you?" Zayn asked Liam. Liam stared at Zayn open-mouthed for a few minutes.

"I- just thought that you would want to go with someone else. You know, like a woman-" Liam told him.

"You do know that I'm bi, right?" Zayn asked him.

Liam looked shocked. "Y-You're b-bi."

Liam stuttered. Zayn grinned at him. "Yes, I am. I am out and I want you to come with me. Please?" Zayn begged him.

"What about Hazel?" Liam asked. If he went
with Zayn. Who would mind Hazel? "Can Marie mind Hazel? It's this Saturday." Zayn told Liam.

Liam sighed.

"I'll have to ask and then I'll let you know." Liam told Zayn.

"Okay, I'll come by your desk and ask you tomorrow," Zayn told him. Liam nodded and stood up.
