Unbroken: A Zayn Malik Fanfiction

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Allison's P.O.V

Zayn left and I picked up the towels tossing them over my shoulder. This boy and running around naked, I swear he's almost as bad as Harry. Zayn at least somewhat covers up Harry however says to 'let him be' but I don't like 'letting him be' when I'm eating.

I walked over to the little bedside table and pulled out a pair of Zayn's sweat pants and a black tank top of mine. I closed it back again and suddenly my eye life felt like weights hanging over my eyes. Between the morning we had at the fall, the eventful night, and the not one but two scares the boys gave me I'm surprised I haven't fallen asleep standing. I stood back up and rubbed my eyes nearly walking into a wall trying to get to the bathroom. I giggled at myself and rolled my eyes,bi was getting giddy from how tired I was. Awesome.

I tossed everything on top of the counter and looked in the mirror. If I wasn't so tired and actually processed what I was seeing I would've screamed. I looked like a walking corpse.

My hair was tangled and ruffled all over the place with tinges of red in some of the bigger knots, my swim suit didn't even look like my swimsuit anymore. The black was so stained with blood that it looked like a deep colored red, I had deep black circles under my eyes, my entire body was just covered in blood. I couldn't stand looking at myself like this anymore. I turned away and stripped off my swimsuit tossing it into the shower. I turned on the water and let it fall over the swimsuit washing out some of the blood. I stepped inside the shower and I felt every bone in my body ache, it was as if the water was just washing the entire day away. I thought about this morning, waking up and finding Zayn, I now knew why he really growled, thank god. I thought about how he carried me to the fall, pushing him into the water and soon being pulled in, how he kept swimming under the water and coming up under me, how he would swim under the fall and pull me over to 'kiss in the fall' instead of the rain. It really was a shame for it to all end, but I was glad that I finally knew about all of them. I could actually help them instead of probably just making them suffer.

I snapped my head up and realized I had been standing in the shower. I got back to reality and washed my hair quickly just wanting to get back to Zayn. I scrubbed the blood off of my skin and shut the water off. I heard growls and hisses from downstairs and I started to panic a little. I jumped out of the shower and dried off letting my hair loose on my back. I got dressed and tip toed out of the room walking through the hallway and poked my head out from the top of the stairs.

"Boys?" Everyone looked up at me their eyes instantly going soft.

"I heard growling." I skipped down the stairs and over to Zayn who already had his arms open for me. I hopped into his lap and wrapped my arms around his neck rubbing his back softly.

"Sorry just, comes natural." He chuckled lying back against the couch pulling me along with him.

"Can I please ask my questions now." I pouted looking up at him and planted a small kiss on his cheek.

"Fine." He smiled wrapping his arms firmly around me and looking at the boys who just shrugged and leaned forward ready to answer.

"Is that what happened when you were attacked?" I looked up and I felt him tense up under my skin.

"It's when everything started happened, so yeah it's the best explanation." He shrugged and relaxed when he saw I had noticed.

"Why did you really leave?" I frowned when I remembered the times when he left. The loneliness, the sadness, the fear or never seeing him again.

"When I noticed what was happening I didn't even believe it, all I really for sure knew was that I could hurt you. I would go out and I could smell blood from an animal that wasn't even bleeding, imagine you. I didn't want to keep putting you in danger when I didn't know how to control myself so I left. I always stayed around, but not close enough to put you in danger." He explained it all and I realized he hadn't taken a breath, his eyes never leaving mine.
