Oops? ? Zouis Talik

The day Louis left, everyone was an emotional wreck. Louis kept a brave face for Zayn, keeping calm and collected while saying bye to all of his boys, only to break down as he pulled away from Zayn's house.

The night before however, Damian being the least attached to Louis, no one expected him to react the way he did, as soon as Zayn told him that Louis was going to be gone for two months, he broke down crying and quickly climbed out of his chair and on to the dinner table and rushed across to hug him. Elijah on the other hand, instantly dropped his gaze to his hands and started picking at the skin by his fingers nervously chewing on his lip.

Zayn had been able to hold it together the morning Louis left. He smiled at the arsehole reporters, he kissed Louis softly on his cheek and he held the boys tightly as they called out to their dad who smiled sadly before waving one last time before getting in to the blacked out van. Zayn held it together when the twins kept asking questions about when Louis was coming home, held it together when Elijah quietly complained when he cut his sandwhich in to squares and not triangles like Louis and held it together as he tucked his sad sleepy children in to bed that night.

He couldn't hold it together though when he climbed in to his California king sized bed and realized that for the first time in a while he was truly alone, that no one was going to walk in later and curl up in bed beside him, that he was going to wake up alone. Louis hadn't been living with him but he'd gotten used to just going over to his house or meeting him and all the other lads somewhere. Alone wasn't something that suited Zayn very well.

The longer he laid in bed the more began regret not accepting Louis' 'offer' of being his boyfriend. Being his boyfriend would have been a solid commitment meaning even if Louis was tempted he most likely wouldn't cheat...that hadn't stopped him before though. But just 'being' or whatever they are now, Louis is free to do whatever he wants. What if he goes out and finds some fit South American? Louis isn't tied down, he doesn't have to answer to Zayn or even really consider him if he wants to...fuck someone. 

Needless to say falling asleep that night was a difficult task for Zayn.

 As soon as Louis and the rest of One Direction left England, the press went nuts. They started following Zayn everywhere he went, the store, his office, to his clients houses, to visit his family and even took to following whoever was watching Damian and Elijah when he wasn't with them. 

It was becoming too much for Zayn, he was constantly looking over his shoulder trying to avoid the camera. He was getting tired of spending ten minutes honking his horn and inching down his front drive and with the twins birthday party being today, he wanted everyone to just go away. 

He was setting trays of food out on the table and making sure that the people from the petting zoo kept the animals in their cages when his doorbell rang. Instantly he heard two sets of feet stomping their way down the stairs.

"Nan's here! Daddy! Nan is here!" Damian yelled as he ran to the door and began jumping trying to reach the top lock. 

Zayn hadn't seen his mum since he left for the promo tour, it wasn't that he was ignoring her persay, he just really didn't want to have the talk he knew they were definitely going to have today. When he finally made it to the front door he saw his mum and sisters all pulling the newly four year old boys in different directions.

"It'd be much appreciated if you didn't rip off my kids arms today." he chuckled crossing his arms over his chest.

"Bro! It was hell getting in here, what are they even trying to get pictures of?" Donyia sighed kissing Damians cheek making him groan and try to push her away
