Take it off

10

Liam woke up to his phone ringing, he groaned and turned to the other side

Yet it kept on ringing, he sighed and sat up before he answered with a mumbled greeting, and all Niall said was

"Come to my dorm room," He said then the line went dead, Liam shivered and took a shaky breath

~~~~~

Liam saw Zayn in the kitchen, he gave him a small forced smile and Zayn frowned

"Are you alright?"

Liam shrugged "I think so, Niall wants to see me"

"Aren't you... Friends?"

Liam nodded "Yeah, but he sounded angry," He said, rubbing the back of his neck

Zayn slowly nodded "Ok, do you want me to drop you off?" He said, giving Liam the to-go coffee cup

Liam shook his head "No, it's ok. I want to walk"

Zayn nodded, Liam walked towards him and kissed him

Zayn smiled and kissed Liam back, they pulled away and rested their foreheads together

"Call me if you need anything"

Liam smiled "I will"

~~~~~

When Liam reached Niall's room, he knocked, a minute later the door opened and he led Liam inside

Harry was seated on the couch, he looked at Liam and then at Niall

"Is... Everything OK?"

Niall stayed quiet and turned to Liam "Are you dating Zayn Malik?"

Liam's eyes widened "What?"

Niall opened his phone and showed Liam

Liam took Niall's phone and felt his throat dry

There were pictures of him and Zayn, one was when they were leaving the restaurant and another was them in Zayn's car, making out before they got out

"H-How did you get these?"

Niall crossed his arms "Doesn't matter"

Harry frowned "It kinda does..."

Niall groaned and turned to Liam "Someone from my class saw you, and took the photos then sent them to me to confirm it's you"

Liam stayed quiet and then looked at Niall again "I can explain"

Niall shook his head "There's nothing for you to explain!!"

"Niall-"

"You moved out, drove a fancy car, got a wardrobe change. None of it is you, he did it all!!"

Harry stood up "OK, stop it."

Niall slowly shook his head "There's no job, is there? You're just Zayn Malik's something, shaking your arse for him are you"

Liam cringed and Harry stepped between them "Alright you're done. Stop"

Niall looked at Harry "You knew"

Harry threw his hands up "Of course I knew, because he knew you'd react this way!!"

"Because I'm worried!!"

"He's not a child!! Why are you treating him like he's one?!"

Niall wanted to reply but he stopped, he looked at Liam from over Harry's shoulder

He was looking at Niall then cleared his throat "Mind if I leave? If you both continue to talk about me like I'm not here, I might as well not be"

Harry turned to Liam and gripped his arm "No, wait-"
