| CHAPTER XVIII |

"Zayn..."

I could hear my father's voice, it looked like he were trying to awaken me from that nightmare. I turned my body to the other side and opened my eyes. When I could see everything around me, I saw my father seated beside me on the bed.

"What time is it?" I said, realizing that I was in my old room.

"I don't know, but it's late. Louis is downstairs and wants to talk to you. He doesn't look well and I explained why you came here yesterday, but he wouldn't listen. I think you two need to talk." He said as he took steps toward the door.

"How did he know I was here?"

"He phoned me because he couldn't find you anywhere and he was worried. Well, I would be too."

"Tell him I'm on my way, I need to take a shower. My head is killing me."

I waited till my dad left to take my shower. I dressed in clothes that were still there and at every step of the stairs, I was psychologically preparing to face Louis and his rage.

I felt his deathly eyes as I sat down on the couch. I was not looking back to him, so I sat down and pressed my elbows in my lap.

"Hello." I said.

"Is this what you say to me? Just a hello? After what you did last night?" Louis spoke loudly and was really very disappointed.

My head's still killing me, so the housemaid came to me with a glass of water and a bottle of medication. I thanked her for that and I took two pills together. I put the bottle in my pocket and took a deep breath while I searched for the patience that still existed in me. Might have needed more patience than pills.

"What do you want me to say?" I asked when I could look him in the eye.

"You owe me at least a thousand excuses for what you did last night." He was trying to guilt me.

I walked away from him and took a deep breath wondering if it was really worth making the thousand excuses he thought he deserved.

"I no longer allow myself to stay in a place where I feel bad anymore. Not even though this place is my own wedding." I gave the answer the real Zayn would give and I was looking for him.

"You criticized my attitudes and always said that I only think about myself sometimes. But don't you think you only thought about yourself last night? When you left me alone in the middle of our wedding party? Everybody noticed, even my excuse that you were sick failed. That circus you set up to try to protect Harry was clearly why you wanted to disappear."

Recalling the last events seemed hard to him.

"I have already said why. It was something I wanted to do. I know it was bad, but trust me, it would have been much worse if I had stayed there."
