Zayn met Liam when they were both 8, they were in 3rd grade and Liam's hands were covered in paint

Zayn was in the bathroom because he wanted to wash his hands when Liam walk in

His eyes met Zayn's and he smiled and stretched his hands out

"Hi, I'm Liam!"

Zayn blinked and looked back into the mirror "Your hands are covered in paint" He mumbled

Liam laughed quietly and shrugged, he walked towards the sink and started to wash his hands

They were quiet but then Liam looked at him

"What's your name?"

Zayn sighed "Zayn"

Liam smiled "It was nice meeting you Zayn"

Zayn frowned and turned to Liam "It.... Was it?"

Liam nodded "Of course it was!!" he said with more enthusiasm than Zayn could muster

He walked towards the tissue dispenser, took a few before he walked out

Zayn stayed quiet as he watched Liam turn to him with one more excited wave before he walked out

Liam was the first person in that whole place who was willingly nice to him

Every Time he saw Zayn, he smiled and waved. When he saw Zayn quietly sitting alone, he quietly sat with him

Zayn felt slightly less lonely in a place he was the outcast in. Though Harry was his neighbour, Liam didn't have to approach him.

Zayn can't imagine what would've happened had Liam stayed quiet while they were in the bathroom that day

~~~~~

Zayn walked into Brian's meeting room and everyone in turned to look at him

He walked in and put his hands inside his pockets until he stood at the opposite end of where Brian was seated

"Take a seat Zayn"

Zayn shook his head "No"

"Zayn-"

"I found my scholarships, and told them the only person they should be in contact with is me" He said before he turned around and walked away "FUCK YOU BRIAN"

He knew Brian would be having people over, and Zayn did it on purpose.

He didn't choose to be Brian's puppet, and he'll do everything in his power to ensure that Brian knows that

~~~~~

Liam hugged Louis tightly when he walked in

Louis hugged Liam back with a tired sigh

"Harry never came tonight" He muttered and Liam frowned

Liam wanted to scream but he didn't, he led Louis to the couch and sat him down

Isaac who was holding cactus frowned

"You alright?"

Louis let out a quiet laugh and shrugged

Isaac frowned looking at them before he turned cactus around

And ripped the battery out

"ISAAC!!"
