A Year Without You - Ziam

Chapter Four

"Zayn?" Zayn looked up at Mrs.Thorton, who was standing by the chalkboard, everyone in class was looking at him as well.

"Uh, yeah?" He asked looking around the room before looking back at her.

"I've been calling you for five minutes, are you okay?" She asked frowning slightly, Zayn nodded slowly. "Well, you're needed at the office, someone needs to talk to you. Take your things, you might be there awhile."

He nodded closing his notebook and placing it in his bag, He looked to his left sighing seeing the empty seat, Niall, who sits behind him, patted his back gently. Zayn gave him a sad smile before getting up and walking out of the room to walk to the main office. He looked down at his feet as he walked, and went at a slow pace since he was the only one in the hall. Once he reached the office and he walked in, looking over at the ladies who work there, them giving me a sad smile.

"I was told to come here because I was needed" Zayn said holding onto the strap of his bag. Before she could reply, an officer walked over to him, showing Zayn his badge.

"Officer Davis, you need to come with me, please." He said putting his badge away after Zayn looked at it, his gaze going to the officer's face. Zayn frowned and took a small step back.

"Why do I need to go with you?" Heasked as Officer Davis looked at him, trying to be intimidating.

"We need to ask you a few questions about the disappearance of Liam Payne, since you were the last to see him alive."

Zayn looked at him eyed wide, hearing a gasp coming from the lady at the front desk, he began tearing up looking at the officer, "He's dead..?"

"No. We haven't found him nor a body, so we can't say he is dead, but you were the last person to be with him, so we need to ask you questions to further on with the case."

"Then why the hell did you say 'last to see him alive'?!" Zayn yelled becoming angry and his fists clenching. The officer only looked at him as Zayn glared at him.

"Let's go." Was all he said before walking out of the office, Zayn looked at the lady who shook her head and mouthed sorry. He huffed and followed him out of the office.

"Don't you have to call my parents first? I'm a minor and I can't just go with you without their permission." He said crossing his arms, refusing to walk any further.

"Your parents are at the station. I was asked to come get you since they're not allowed to leave the station either." Zayn frowned and followed him out of the school, yet he didn't know there were camera men and reporters outside, lots of them. Once they saw Zayn walk out they all ran towards him, officer Davis blocking them and keeping them away from Zayn.

"Zayn? Is it true you two argued? And Liam left really upset?"

"Did you have anything to do with Liam's disappearance?"

"Is it your fault he has gone missing?"

"Zayn, why did Liam leave? Did you tell him to?"

All these questions were thrown at him and Zayn began tearing up again, shoving microphones and cameras in his face. Officer Davis opened the door of his car for him, quickly getting in, he closed the door and looked back to the reporters.

"You are not allowed to be here, let alone interview a minor without his parents consent. Please leave the property before I call back up to escort you all out." Was all he said before getting into the driver's seat, driving out of the parking lot. Zayn turned around and the reporters stayed behind and began dispersing and going back to their vans.

Zayn sighed before his phone vibrated in my pocket. He took it out seeing he had a text message from Harry.

From Harry: Z? What happened?! We saw you get escorted out of campus by a cop!
