[Zayn's P.O.V]
"Zayn, you don't really have to do that..." Louis whined from his bed.
"You might trip on them, Lou." I said as I continue to pick up his clothes on the floor.
Louis was released from the hospital an hour ago and I walked to his place as soon as I can. Louis has a huge cast on his left feet and bandages all over his body and around his head.
With that condition, I quickly rearrange some of his furnitures to make it easier for him to navigate. I started picking up things from his floor so he wouldn't trip on them and cause more injuries.
"Zayn, seriously, you might hurt yourself." Louis said.
"I'm almost done, okay?" I said after picking up a few more clothes then dropping them in the hamper. "There done."
"Now cuddle with me!" Louis said with open arms.
I just chuckled and carefully get on the bed with him.
"You're really starting to show." he commented while placing his hand on my 14 week old bump.
"Baby Zouis' a size of a lemon now." I smiled, thinking back to the pregnancy research I had last night while I was bored.
"Cute." Louis chuckled, "You've been researching I see."
"I was bored." I said before yawning. "So sleepy."
"Don't you have a tutor session in an hour?" he said.
"Oh, forgot to text Luke he don't have to come today." I said before grabbing my phone.
"Zayn, won't your dad be pissed?" he asked.
"I have to take care of you." I pouted.
He chuckled, "You don't have to worry, Z, I won't be leaving the bed anyway, and Mom will just bring food here. You moved my study table beside my bed so I think I could eat well and all."
"But Lou-"
He stopped me with a kiss, "Liam will come over later if you're still worried. Besides, I think you're dad will hate me more when he finds out you skipped tutor with Luke just for me."
I huffed and crossed my arms after sitting up, "Dad really needs to go easy on you."
"I'll get his approval someday, Z, you'll see." he grinned which made me smile and my heart beat.
This is one of the many reasons to love Louis, he's so positive and doesn't give up easily.
"Well, fine, I guess I'll see you tomorrow, cause I'm sure my parents won't let me out after tutor cause it'll be late... I can't believe they gave me a 6PM curfew." I said annoyed.
"Well, you really need to be careful since you're pregnant and all, especially now since your knight in shining armor is injured and couldn't protect you." Louis winked.
"Whatever you goof." I laughed before giving him a kiss then leaving his place.

[Louis' P.O.V]
After Zayn left, I decided to play on my phone to kill boredom.
"Hey, Lou!" a voice greeted.
I looked up and saw Niall and Harry, who's holding a fruit basket, "Mom wants me to give this to you." Harry as he place the basket on my study table.
"How are ya feeling?" Niall asked before sitting on my bed, "Liam had something important to do so we'll be your nurses for a while!"
"Well, shit I'm screwed." I said with a horrified look.
"Hey!" Harry said, "We gave you a fruit basket and this is how you thank us?" he said dramatically, "We also have to sacrifice our free time for you!"
"You mean the time you two use to eat eachother's faces?" I raised my eyebrow at them.
"Yeah- I mean no! Why would we do that?" Harry laughed nervously.
"We're best mates!" Niall defended.
"For fuck sake, just come out you two!" I rolled my eyes.
"We're not inside of something...?" Harry said.
"Harry, no... Just... Shut the fuck up." I glared.
He huffed, "You're really rude."
"Whatever. So anything happened in school?" I asked.
"Nothing much really. We tried like following Miles around." Niall said, "But it's like she's a ninja!"
"Yeah, and Liam tried following Justin around too, which I still don't get, but we haven't heard anything from him yet." Harry shrugged before swinging around on my chair.
"Ugh... why can't they just quit?" I sighed, "I hope they won't hurt Zayn."
"I'm sure they won't, I mean... His dad's intimidating as fuck, and I don't think anyone would want to mess with him." Niall said.
"Well, I hope so." I sighed.
"We should stop talking about this," Harry said, "You need rest, Lou."
"Yeah, this problem is giving me a headache." I said honestly.
"We should watch a movie or something." Niall suggested.
"You two go watch it in my laptop, I'm going to take a nap." I yawned.

[A week later...]
Some of my wounds and injuries healed after a week of being locked up in my house. It was boring and lonely when Zayn has to leave since I don't think he'll be comfortable enough to sleep over cause my bed isn't as spacious as his and I'm really scared of the growing bump being squeezed or Zayn falling off the bed.
I still have my cast on and Liam's been very cautious of it. I'm grateful but sometimes it gets a little suffocating when he goes all mother hen on me.
"Louis, let me carry that for you." he said with a concern look.
"Liam, my bag only has one book inside, I think I'll manage." I said.
We continue walking through the hallways to the cafeteria.
"Right, sorry... how long will you keep that cast on?" he asked.
"About like four to six weeks." I answered, "Anyway, have you heard anything from Miles?"
"Er, nothing yet, has she been bothering you?"
"Surprisingly not."
"She must be guilty."
"She better be." I muttered before letting Liam open the door to the cafeteria since he beat me to it.
We walked to our usual table and Liam helped me settle down, "I'll get us food, what do you want to eat?"
"Just get me whatever looks good." I shrugged, "Oh, and can I borrow your phone? Mine's dead and I want to check up on Zayn."
"Oh, uhm... sure, here you go. Don't read my texts though or answer any calls." he looked at me sternly.
I smirked.
"Louis, I mean it." he glared.
I rolled my eyes, "Fine fine, I won't."
He still doesn't believe me.
"I promise, Li!" I crossed my heart.
"Fine." he said before handing me his phone and leaving.
I unlocked his phone and sent Zayn a message. After receiving a reply, I locked the phone and placed it on the table.
It wasn't long after until it started buzzing. It was a call.
I ignored just like I promised Liam. The phone didn't stop ringing until it reaches 3 missed calls.
'Wonder who it is...' I thought to myself.
A message came,
'Answer the phone, Payne, this is my new number -M'
...M...?
