"I'm done. That lasagna was really the best I've ever had. Thanks guys." Niall said after taking the last bite from his plate.

"Oh don't thanks us, Ni. They really make delicious food here. Lasagna is Louis and Michael's favourite food. It's like the only thing they eat here." Zayn said with a smile. But the smile faded as soon as he realised what an idiotic mistake he did. Zayn slowly dragged his eyes guiltily towards Niall to see the boy scowling at him. Zayn made an apologetic smile because it just slipped out his mind that Niall had warned him to not mention Myke in front of Harry.

'And Zayn, one important thing. As I told you that Harry doesn't like the fact that Myke is still in contact with Louis, so just don't bring him up in front of him. We want to break the wall that Harry had built around his heart and not cement it further, alright? So make sure that Myke stays away from Louis whenever Harry is around. Got it?'

But now the damage was already done.

" Y-you guys come here on such lunch dates with Michael as well? Is- is it like a umm.... double date? Just asking." Harry said, pretending to be as nonchalant as possible. It's not his fault that something in him hurt whenever the thought of Louis with Michael was brought up. It was as though his heart was so adapted to hearing LouisandHarry that Louis' name with anyone else just didn't seem right So, he couldn't help but point out this fact and ask Zayn about it.

But Zayn wasn't the one to reply. It was Louis who did.

"No. It's um it's just us when we hang out here. Myke has joined us only two times. And it wasn't umm.. wasn't a d-date." Louis said. He just didn't want Harry to think of him as a cheater. He knew that the green eyed boy resented him and thought of him as a betrayer but he didn't want Harry to think that he moved on, as if their relationship didn't mean anything to him. Because that definitely wasn't true. His relationship with Harry was everything to him and will forever be.

"Anyways," Niall spoke up to in attempt to deviate the topic of discussion. He wanted to hit Zayn for bringing up Myke inspite of his warning but what's done was done.
"Where are you guys headed to after this?"

"Nowhere. We'll go back home. Louis wasn't even willing to come here. He just wanted to sit in the house and sip his tea like some forty year old man. I literally had to emotionally blackmail him before he agreed to go out for lunch with us." Zayn said while rolling his eyes.

"Zayn!!" Louis glared at the raven haired boy. At this point, he wasn't even sure why he was still friends with a guy whose favourite hobby was to embarrass him.

Niall chuckled at Zayn's words and could have bet that he saw the side of Harry's lips rise up in a grin but quickly subsided as if the green eyed boy wanted himself to not smile.

Niall smirked because now he was determined to break the wall of separation between Louis and Harry and he already had a plan in action.

"Hey, why don't you guys come with us to our house? It's Saturday and I'm sure you all have nothing important to do. So instead of just lounging around at your place why not come to ours? We all can just watch some movies and have fun together like the old times. To revive the wonderful memories? Moreover, Anne will be so delighted to see y'all. What's say?"

Harry's head swivelled towards Niall as soon as the lad invited the other three to their house. This was totally out of the blue for him. Although he didn't have anything against spending time together with all of his friends, he also didn't want the tension between Louis and him grow. The invite was just unexpected for him.

But before Louis could even think about it, Zayn jumped in to answer for on his and Liam's behalf as well, "Really? That's a great idea Niall. It'd be fun. All of us would love to join in. Right babe?" He turned towards Liam and asked. Liam smile and nodded to show his consent. "Of course."

Niall then turned towards Louis to know the boy's response. "And what about you, Lou?"

The small boy's eyes went wide when the question came to him. Since, he liked the thought of all of them hanging around together and Zayn had already said yes, Louis wasn't left with any option other than agreeing. He was just worried that perhaps Harry wouldn't like the idea of him tagging along. It would be... It would be awkward, maybe? Because he knew that he wasn't Harry's friend anymore, just the manager. A worthless manager to a world famous singer.

"Umm... I mean if you and M-Mr. Styles don't mind then...umm..s-sure. I'd.. I'd like that." Louis said with a small smile of confirmation.

Niall scoffed and said, "ohh why would your Mr. Styles mind? He will obviously love having y'all around again and have fun. Right mate?" Niall asked Harry with a smirk.

"Uhh yeah yeah. Of course. It would be lovely to hang out like we used to. Why ..uhh why would I mind?" Harry stammered through his answer, just like Louis. He really wasn't going to oppose but he was just a bit unsure if he'd be able to control his emotions with Louis hanging out in his house with all of his friends as well. It would be a massive reminder of how this was such a normal and casual thing for them six years ago but at the same time, would also remind him of the painful years that he spent without having Louis under the same roof as him and cuddling him while they all watched a movie. Also, spending time together after so long would definitely not change the fact that Louis was the one because of which he had missed out so much in his life , in the past couple years. Things were still far from normal between them.

'But, Anyways', Harry thought and continued saying, "You're all very welcome at our place."
Now was not the time to let his problems with Louis come in the way of having a great time with his friends, so Harry decided to put that thought aside and act as unfazed as he could.

"See Louis, told ya he won't mind. Now shall we?" Niall said with excitement.

"Yes, let's go. You guys go ahead, I'll just pay the bill and join y'all." Liam said as he saw the waitress approaching their table with the food bill.

"No wait, it's on me." Harry said and held Liam's hand to stop him from reaching down to his wallet that was in his jeans.

"Harry, mate it's fine. I can-" , Liam was cut of Harry shaking vigorously shaking his head. " Nope Liam, I've got this one. Your friend isn't that broke school boy anymore. Haha! But this is our first meeting after years so let me please. Besides, don't think I'm saving your money okay, you have to treat me with some best Chinese in the city next time and you know too well how much I eat away if the meal is Chinese." He said with a wink.

Liam chuckled and said, "Okay deal."

Louis couldn't help but smile with fond when he saw how down to earth Harry was. The green eyed boy almost had the entire world at his feet. He was at that peak of success where everyone had to look up to him to even have a glance and added to his incredible talent was his outrageously handsome look. Those dimpled smiles and cheeky lines had everyone hypnotized. Every other music director wanted him to sing for them. And to have that boy casually asking for a treat of Chinese food from his friend like that, was just so amusing. Having worked with numerous celebrities Louis knew how haughty or boastful some of them could be. He had been to parties that were thrown only for the soul purpose of flaunting the wealth to some people and he had also seen stars ignoring their own old school friends, as if being photographed with them would be such an ignominious thing. Admist all those superstars was Harry Styles, who was still as he used to be years ago. The blue eyed boy was definitely sure that Harry's behaviour on their first meet in the office was just a facade and that this froggy would never treat his managers like that. It was just him who had to face the sweet boy's wrath for reasons quite well known to him.

But right now he couldn't bring himself to stop admiring the gem of a person sitting next to him. Gosh, he loved him so freaking much.

"Your receipt, sir" the waitress said as she approached the table. She gave the total food bill to Harry as the boy extended his hand towards it. Harry fished his card out of his pocket to make the payment and handed it to the lady. The waitress entered the card in the card machine and starting tapping the details.

But hidden from everyone's sight was the subtle wink that Niall passed towards the waitress and the scant nod that the waitress gave him before starting her bit of acting.

"Excuse me sir, I'm sorry but seems like this machine just stopped working. I think it has some issue. There's another one at the reception so could you please come with me to make the payment." The waitress said, sounding a bit apologetic.

"Sure. You guys go ahead. I'll join y'all in a few." Harry said and stood up to go towards the counter.

"Okay let's go, guys." Niall said and gestured the other three to follow him.

Five minutes later, they were standing in the restaurant's parking right next to Harry and Niall's black Mercedes Benz C-Class, waiting for the singer.

For the next ten seconds, while Niall waited for Harry, Liam, Louis and Zayn kept ogling at the black beauty that was parked right in front of them.

But then Zayn remembered something.

"Ohh shoot!" Zayn exclaimed loudly and placed his hand on his heart with worry. His sudden shriek made the rest boys turn towards him.

"What happened, babe?" Liam asked with a concerned look on his face, as he moved to stand behind his boyfriend.

"I left my phone at the table." Zayn whined, looking like he was almost about to sob.

"Oh okay, I'll get it in a sec." Liam said instantly and made a move towards the restaurant's entry again.

Although Zayn grabbed him before he could leave. "No, you won't go. Uhh, I mean our car is parked a little far away, so baby, why don't you bring it here while Louis goes inside and gets my phone?" Zayn said as his gripped on Liam's arm tightened.

"Honey, it's fine. I'll go get your phone and then I can ge- OUCH" Liam stopped mid-sentence when Zayn pinched his arm harshly.

He looked up with furrowed eyebrows silently asking his boyfriend what he did to deserve that pinch. He was met with Zayn's eyes glaring at him.

"Let Louis go, baby." Zayn said with gritted teeth but with a fake smile plastered on his lips . His boyfriend can be a big doofus sometimes, really.

Although, it looked like now Liam seemed to understand what he was supposed to say. "OHHH I mean o-okay. As you say, babe. Louis, could you bring Zee's phone please?"

Louis, who was until now staring at his two utterly weird friends, nodded. "Yeah okay. But stop being such a careless brat Malik." He rolled his eyes and went inside the restaurant the second time in the day.

The three boys watched him enter the hotel. Liam turned around with a victorious smile , "YES we did it!"

Although he didn't get a loud cheer from Niall and a little happy dance from Zayn as he had expected. On the contrary, both of them were looking at him with narrowed eyes.

Zayn slapped him lightly on his face and said, "You almost spoiled it, Li."

(Imagine Zayn instead of Louis please lol!)

"Oh come on, babe it just slipped out of my mind. I forgot that this was the plan." he said appalled. He put his hand on his face and mumbled like a hurt puppy, " I genuinely got worried that your phone might actually get lost."

"Awwww baby, you can be sO STUPID SOMETIMES." Zayn grumbled.

"But yo-"

"Okay shut up, you two. Gosh, you two are still a headache. And by the way, not just Liam but you're also a horrendous actor Zayn. You looked like you were about to weep like a baby because of your lost phone. That was over the top, Malik." Niall said sternly and rolled his eyes at his overdramatic friends.

And the fight was on.

"Well, excuse me, Horan. I would love to see you do better than me. Louis didn't even get suspicious of me so I did good whereas you? The 'subtle' wink that you passed to the waitress was not as subtle as you think, alright. Louis could have seen it if I hadn't distracted him. And most importantly your forgetful @$$ couldn't even remember to tell the waitress what she was supposed to do. Had I not told her before you guys arrived, you would have kept winking and she would've just looked at you creepily without knowing what to do. Thank the Lord and me for that."

"Ohh please the wink? I did great. None of them eyed me sceptically like Louis was doing to you guys because of your overacting. You're definitely not a natural. And informing the waitress was Liam's duty not mine. Blame your boyfriend for telling the plan to the restaurant staff and leaving out this major part, Zaynie pooh."

"Don't call me that, you Horn."

"Shut up."

"You shut up."

"You s-"

"OKAY STOP! God, You two still fight the same way. But now is not the time alright. We need to leave before Louis and Harry come back. In the midst of your wonderful bickering session don't forget what was the actual purpose we did all this for. If they come back before we leave, they will definitely not agree to sit in the same car. So, we have to take one of the cars and leave so that they won't have any option other than driving together all alone."

"Exactly, tell your whining boyfriend to stop acting like a brat and let's go."

"You Ho-"

"Okay okay let's go." Liam interrupted before Zayn could start it again. He grabbed Zayn's waist and nudged him to move ahead.

"Wait wait, why aren't we going in this car? Harry and Louis can take our car, right? I wanna ride in this car. This is soooooo cool!" Zayn said excitedly.

"Still a princess." Niall mumbled to himself while rolling his eyes. " We're going in this car, that's final. Because I'm gonna text Harry saying that you guys had brought your car as well so I drove with you to show you the directions to our place and then I'll ask him to bring Louis in this car."

"But, it's still valid if we take this car and they take ours, innit?" Zayn huffed. He wanted to just enjoy sitting in that extremely stylish car. He wasn't asking for much, right.

Now Liam was getting annoyed too. They had to leave soon and Zayn's whining wasn't helping the situation at all. So, emegency called for some extreme measures. He went ahead and pinched Zayn's @$$ making the small boy jump with surprise. Liam bent forward and whispered slowly in Zayn's ears, making the raven haired boy's heart skip a beat. "Do you want me to spank you baby? Come on be a good boy for daddy and listen to what he says yeah. Daddy will treat you if you be good okay. We are going in our car, end of it. Okay baby?" Liam smile seductively in Zayn's ears before licking the back of his boyfriend's neck.

Zayn's sass immediately flew away when Liam oh so casually breathed out such naughty words right next to his ear.
"Y-Yes d-daddy." He immediately whispered with shyness and nervousness.

Being in a relationship for eight years pretty much gave them ample time to pull off a lot of their kinks. Not very intense but the duo still enjoyed every thing as a couple, be it sexual or chaste. And this daddy kink was just one of their secrets who no one needed to know.

Liam smirked when Zayn whimpered lowly at his words . He was always smug about the fact that only he could change the sassy, bold and persistent Zayn Malik into a shy and submissive boy.

"Are you two done? We need to hurry." Niall said when he saw Zayn and Liam whisper to each other. From the past horrifying experiences, he really wasn't interested in knowing what exactly was said between the two. Back in school days, he was the poor guy who accidentally had to hear a lot of sensual conversations between his friends and their boyfriends. It was so frustrating and gross for him to know about the adventures that his brother like best friends had during alone time with their darlings and he wasn't interested in knowing them now either.

"Yeah let's go." Liam said and started walking towards his car with Niall and Zayn following him.
