part six: hate to admit

Harry and Zayn waited at the dock with Anne and Mary whilst Robin pulled the yacht up.

Zayn had laced his hands around Harry's waist during this time and Harry didn't complain.

"Come on Mum," Anne spoke, grabbing Mary's hand and helping her up and onto the yacht once Robin had arrived.

This left Harry and Zayn on the dock.

Slowly, Zayn leaned into Harry's ear and whispered: "When do I get to kiss you? Of course, only for the show of it..."

"Zayn," Harry rolled his eyes and pushed him away. "Stop,"

With a smirk, Zayn let go of Harry's hand and stepped back. "Whatever you say love,"

This made Harry's stomach turn in the best way possible. But Harry wasn't going to let that ruin his day. It had barely started.

The yacht hasn't been pulled out since George was last here, and Harry didn't know what do expect for the day. He wasn't ready for the pile of emotions this was going to unleash.

"Come on lads!" Robin called from the top of the yacht where he was sat driving it.

It seemed that Mary was settled in and she was smiling quite widely as well, motioning for the boys to join them.

Zayn turned to Harry with a rather concerned look on his face.

"May I ask you a question Harry?" He asked softly, stepping a good length closer to Harry.

"Uh huh," Harry mumbled, his eyes on the yacht watching his wildly call for him as if he couldn't hear.

Harry put a soft hand up which told his parents one minute.

This caused 'Ooos' to be changed from the yacht. Harry wondered if they were surprised as to why George wasn't here.

"You don't look okay. Are you okay?" Zayn was genuinely concerned at this point, as Harry was so fixated on the yacht.

"Is that your question?" Harry frowned, finally snapping out of his gaze.

Zayn shook his head. "No," Is all he simply said.

"Well then let's get on with it," Harry said impatiently as he walked ahead of Zayn and towards the yacht.

His family cheered from the deck.

"Finally! Get your asses in here lovebirds!" Anne yelled gaining a laugh from Zayn as he caught up to Harry.

"You didn't let me ask my question," Zayn then spoke softly watching as Harry climbed onto the yacht, Zayn following behind him.

"I don't want to hear it right now Zayn," Harry interlaced his fingers with Zayn's. "Now, lets give them what they want okay?"

Sighing, Zayn plastered a smile on and pressed a kiss against Harry's cheek. It was genuine to him, but Harry seemed to think otherwise.

"What took you two so long?" Robin asked as he carefully pulled away from the dock and onto the open lake.

Sarcastically, Harry rolled his eyes and said; "We're just so in love,"

This was a joke obviously, even for his parents' understanding. But they ate it all up.

"You two are very cute you know that?" Mary smiled, holding onto the sides of her seat as Robin began to drive steadily once he got the hang out of the yacht again.

Mary was wearing the same sun hat she wore the last time the family had been on the yacht. The last time George was here.

Anne disappeared into the cockpit Robin was sat in, steering the yacht.
