The room caught the heavy silence as Zayn clung unto Will even tighter. The words sounded so strange to Will that he had to seat up to get a better look at Zayn."What are you talking about?" Will asked thoughtfully as he couldn't recall doing such a thing. "That didn't happen.""Yes it did." Zayn sat up and he saw the confused look on Will's face. Does he really not remember?"If it wasn't my birthday then why did you ask us to meet at the park?""Well," he paused as his motive back then came back to him. "I only said that to buy enough time to get my thing without you noticing." he mumbled Zayn stared back at him speechlessly and he let out a sigh. He had resented Will for that day throughout the nine years they stayed apart, because it hurt him everytime he thought about it. If anyone knew what he went through on his birthday after his dad died, it would be Will. All he kept asking himself was why Will would try to make a new wound inside him by repeating the same thing. But it
"Delivery for Mr. Crest." Their heads all came up in unison at the voice of the delivery man and their eyes went down to the big basket of flowers with beautiful arrangements. Will blinked in surprise at the sight and he heard Tasha let out a whistle, obviously in astonishment."That would be me." Will got up confusedly and made his way to the man who took out his hard book for a signature. Will didn't remember ordering flowers, but he took the pen eitherway and put in his signature."Now that's a nice sight." Tasha grinned behind him as the basket got handed to him. He eyed the flowers that filled the room with a peculiar aroma and a smile curled up his lips.He could only think of one culprit."Thank you." he said to the delivery man as he walked away with a smile he didn't know he had."It's official, you're dating someone aren't you?" Tasha squinted as she wondered how he was going to lie his way out now."Well," Will raised his eyes, then a chuckle escaped his lips "yes, I am."
"So you're the boss of this place?" Jay asked as they went up the elevator."Yes I am.""At your age that's quite commendable.""I wouldn't say so, but thank you." Zayn gave a humble smile"I've been looking forward to seeing you for so many years now, and I'm glad I decided to pay a visit. Will has told me a lot of things about you," he leaned over and let out in a whisper that they all could hear "and he may and may not have told about how handsome and charming you are.""Oh, he did?" Zayn's smile brightened and Jay let out his loud laughter.Will stared at the two who were in a world of their own as they spoke about him without a care. The elevator fell open and Zayn gestured Jay out, Guy and Fudge followed behind and Will pursed his lips in tears.Why did his uncle pay a visit? It was so unlike him. He stared at the two who walked in front of him and he pulled them back."Why did you two let him out of the house?" Will questioned quietly "What were we supposed to do? he's been co
Will stared at his face in the mirror of the restroom as he'd been for the past thirty minutes. After taking the call, he was about to make his way back to Zayn's office when Guy and Fudge had stopped him. He knew his uncle had put them outside and he was about to blow up, when Guy's phone had been put up to his ears. He listened to the conversation and he frowned."Why are you on a call with him when he's in there with Zayn?"The look on their faces told Will his uncle's habit had picked up, he always had fun in doing sneaky things like this to catch his prey slipping up. He felt his insides clench up in anger, why is he doing that?"You know what happened nine years ago?"Zayn's voice came through and Will was so close to bursting in and give his uncle a pull on his beards, but Guy and Fudge had held him back. "Don't worry, the boss won't tell." Guy reassured Will who was slowly losing his anger. But the moment he put the phone back up to his ear and heard the rest of their conver
**Two weeks ago*It was all fun and games with a little touch if concern in Will's head, someone kept sending in a piece of flower everyday. And it wasn't Zayn.But for a reason, his mind was more preoccupied by something else. As much as he told himself to not let himself get affected by his uncle's words, it became impossible the moment he got conscious of his environment.*In the living room*Will sat with his legs pulled up between Zayn's open laps and with Zayn's arms wrapped around him. Their eyes stayed focus on the movie playing on the screen but Will's mind focused elsewhere, he'd tried not to react to Zayn's other arm that had been teasing his ear for a while. "Why do you keep doing that?" Will shrunk away as he felt his ears burn up"Doing what?" Zayn chuckled in a way that told it was on purpose. Will leaned forward and shot Zayn a glare that supposedly had the opposite effect."It's because you're so cute." Zayn smiled and went down to kiss him on the lips. Will felt his
Will waved his hand in front of him as his words played again in his head "I'm not saying we should break up or anything." he added and saw a slight relief on Zayn's face."Then, what do you mean?"Will exhaled softly, he had began the race so he might as well finish it. "It's just...I just feel we've been getting a little too, physical."Zayn's face scrunched up in confusion. He wasn't following."What I'm saying is, we need to cut down on... sleeping together.""You don't want to sleep in my room anymore?""No, I..." he exhaled again and shifted on the chair "Having, sex," his voice deemed at the word "I'm saying we should cut down on sex.""Oh," Zayn shifted as he finally got the message, he gave it a thought for a minute and sat on the headrest of the chair "Did I hurt you anywhere? Or was it uncomfortable?" "No, I'm fine. And it didn't feel uncomfortable. But I felt..." he paused, reasoning the words he was about to let out. He had to say it in a way that wouldn't hurt Zayn "It'
The loud tapping sound that filled the quiet room made most heads turn in on direction, their nervous glances shifting to each other anxiously as they sat around the round table, the meeting or rather the supposedly meeting had turned into a gathering with people wondering... where did things go wrong?"Can someone stop whatever's making that sound?" Zayn's sighed as he glared at the projected screen in the room.The others seated now shifted uncomfortably in their seats. They could stop the noise, But the problem at the moment was who would volunteer to tell the boss he was the one furiously tapping his finger on the table when he had such a scary look on his face.Their eyes turned to Will and they found the only solution to the issue, the other problem was how the solution didn't seem to be part of them in the spirit. "...ll ...Will ...Mister Crest!" Will's head shot up at the harsh whisper in his ear, his consciousness came back to him and he got flustered. He hadn't been listeni
What are the repercussions of not getting enough sleep? Of having so much on your mind that you couldn't concentrate on one thing? The answer is that all you do ends up a walking disaster.Will came out of the room just as Zayn stepped off the last stair, their eyes met and Zayn gave him a warm smile."Good morning.""Morning." Will replied. Then Zayn's eyes went down to Will's legs and he paused."Why... do you only have one pair of your slippers on?""Huh?" Will's eyes went down to his legs and he blinked, before muttering "You're right."Zayn watched him walk back into the room tiredly and he waited, only to see Will comeback out with the second pair, but now having the first pair off. He opened his mouth to speak but Will was already walking away.An hour later, in the car."What's my schedule today?" Zayn asked for the third time before Will finally snapped out of his daze"What?""My schedule." Zayn's repeated"Oh, yeah," Will blinked and he reached for his bag, fumbling through
