"What do you think you're doing, Ed?" Louis asked,

Zayn was on his back on the couch, his eyes closed, both arms in his lap. His breathing was shallow and he seemed asleep. He was also wearing a red crop top. Bizarre.

Even more bizarre, were Ed's arms hovering over Zayn's stomach, moving side to side as if trying to resurrect him with some voodoo shit. Not that he doesn't trust Ed, it's just that Ed doesn't seem 'there' most of the time, his mind always wandering. He's never finished a sentence or hold a conversation for too long. Always had headphones on when he's with clients, zoning out. Thankfully no clients had complained about that. But it was business as usual, and clients might find it unusual when they saw them, some of them were friendly with Zayn and would wander to his office, where they were at the moment, if there was no one to meet them at the desk. And the desk was unattended..

"Boss man here is not feeling well, said he's feeling sick, upset tummy. So I'm doing what my mom did to me when I was sick as a baby. It always helped me" Louis was impressed he's never heard him utter so many words, but..

"What it is exactly you're doing then?" Louis asked again, Ed hadn't stopped whatever he was doing, humming quietly.

"Feng-sheining him" Ed replied.

"Feng shui Ed, you mean Feng shuing him" Louis was feeling exasperated, waving his arms around.

"Yeah..that as well" Ed was smiling at Louis seemingly pleased with himself.

"Oh my gosh, someone kill me now..." Louis sat down on Zayn's desk, crossing his legs. How and why did Zayn hire this bloody idiot, "Why is he wearing a crop top, Ed?" He was rubbing his forehead with his thumb. "Where did it come from?"

"His tummy needs to be exposed for the energy to work. And the top is mine" Ed was trying to explain, but Louis cut him off, shooing him with his arms-

"Can you go help Jake please? Just leave, please" he watched him shuffle out of the office, so slowly.

"That was harsh even for you, Lou" Zayn was chuckling at him, opening his eyes and putting his arms under his head.

"You've been awake all this time, Zayn?"

"It's always interesting listening to you interact with others. I feel so relaxed anyway, Ed's feng shein really worked" Zayn just couldn't help teasing him as he tried sitting up, but lied down immediately feeling sick again.

"Feng shui Zayn, feng sh..u..i "

Zayn reached for a small bin and started vomiting when a bout of sickness hit him.

"Eww, what's wrong with you?" Louis moved to open a window, "Whatever you have, I don't want, thank you" he said pulling a face at the smell.

"My stomach is bad, Lou" Zayn said in whisper.

"I've always known Harry is gonna poison you one of these days. What's he done to you?" Louis was trying not to get too close to him, cause vomit is just disgusting. Zayn had a mini fridge in his office, so he at least got him some cold water to rinse his mouth and hopefully throw that bin away. The

smell was awful. "Oh my god" he uttered turning his back, he's going to be sick as well. He hates being sick, has an unhealthy phobia of vomiting. This is all Harry's doing, wanting to finally get rid of him, he got Zayn sick knowing Louis had to take care of him and then choked from his own vomit as well.

"Lou.." Zayn was holding out his hand to Louis for the bottled water. Oh. Lou just rolled it to him on the floor, he cant come near, Zayn rolled his eyes, wished he didn't as he was heaving again.

"What did you eat last night, Zee? I need to know what to tell the police if the worse happened babe" Louis clicked the pen, paper in hand ready.

Zayn rolled his eyes, kinda wished he didn't again, "I'm fine. Haz made me an appointment for tomorrow with the doctor",

"He was already contemplating you being sick..interesting" Louis said irrationality clicking the pen it made an annoying noise, "..he probably made that appointment last week and just-"

"Louis, shut up! My head fucking hurts"

"I thought Ed already healed you with his voodoo shit.." Louis stood up, walked towards the door and shouted for Ed.

"Ed was a baby when his mom used that shit on him, did you think it would work on a grown up man?" Zayn asked the cold water bottle on his neck, very soothing.

"But why did you let him?" Louis chuckled, raising his eyebrows at him,

"Just to entertain him really"

"Yes boss man?" Just then, Ed popped his head in, not fully coming in.

"Can you get rid of that bin, boss man said to ask you. Thanks mate" Louis pouted at Ed.

"Okay sure, whatever boss man says. Oh, were you sick? Feng shein didn't work then?" Ed asked Zayn taking the bin and held it under his arm like it was a laundry basket .

Feng shui, Zayn could hear Louis muttering, he grinned at Ed, "Oh it worked, Louis just broke the spell mate"

Ed walked away laughing, pointing at Zayn, "nice one, boss man"

"Why does he keep calling you boss man?" Louis asked sitting next to Zayn, now he was finished puking. Zayn just shrugged, wrapping his arms around his waist, sinking into the couch.

"How are you Zee? What's wrong, babe" Louis massaged Zayn's feet, they were on his lap, by the way.

"Don't know. Will know tomorrow after the doctor's isn't it?" Zayn sighed eyes closed, the bottled cold water soothing on his neck.

"Okay then. I'm having lunch with Eleanor, I can cancel if you're not feeling well and need me here. I know how much of a baby you can be when not well" Louis was playing with Zayn's hair and playfully pulling the skin on his neck. Zayn cuddled up to his hand, feeling sleepy.

"That's okay, Lou. I'll be fine, Ed will be here to tend to my needs"

Louis snorted, "Please. He can't even feng shein himself", Zayn laughed so hard at that Louis smiling fondly at him, he wanted to see him laugh, he was looking all pale lately and Louis was worried it was stress. "Okay babe. I'll be off then, Jake is here anyway he can help as well. Or not. Harry will have a coronary if he hears that, have you noticed how he's always dropping by checking on you since Jake started working here?" Zarry groaned turning on his side, cuddling a pillow, desperate to shut his eyes and willing Louis to just go already so he could sleep.

"I know it's been fun seeing him all worked up" he grinned wickedly, then noticed Zayn was quiet. "Have some sleep babe, see you later. If I dont, I'll call you" he kissed Zayn's forehead, he was already asleep.

Louis told Ed and Jake not to disturb Zayn in his office, unless he calls for them. He was concerned about Jake seeing Zayn in that crop top, he's seen the looks he's always giving Zayn. As much as he didn't trust Harry with him, Zayn was the happiest he's seen in a long time and will do anything to make sure nothing interferes with Zayn's happiness. He will make life miserable for whoever messes with him. Harry included. He seemed to be making Zayn happy though. For now anyway.

They will know tomorrow what's wrong with Zayn, after his checked up with the doctor. For now, he closed the door behind him, hoping tomorrow brings in good news, that Zayn had nothing to worry about. All will be well.
