My Anchor [My North Star Part II (Final)]

Summary: All Zayn wants is a closure, he wants to know if there was something real between him and Liam, or was it all just a lie?

Warning!! Prepare tissues.

~*~

It had been ten hours since whatever happened, Liam never came back to him. Zayn could feel his heart shattering into a thousand pieces, or maybe a billion pieces, he can never tell. And, basically, he blames himself. Why did he had to become so vulnerable?

Zayn could hear one line that Liam told Harry "You're my only North Star" and it keeps repeating in Zayn's brain, and he should've seen it coming, but of course, he didn't.

But it's just that, Liam made him feel as if everything was real, like Zayn actually meant something and not just his damn employee, who was very easy to get. Maybe that's what he really meant to Liam.

Zayn found himself helping himself out of the house, and heading home, he could feel his tears roll down his cheek, and he wipes it away, because he felt so use. He made a man make him feel used, made him feel like a trash, and that was really something that Zayn didn't want to feel, that was something Zayn never wanted to feel, but right now, it was all he was feeling, and all he could blame was himself, because even if he wanted to blame Liam, he could only blame himself, because he was the one who was too vulnerable, too easy.

"Where have you been? I've been so worried", Zayn's mother worries, pulling Zayn in her arms, and Zayn couldn't help but let free his tears again and returns the embrace of his mother.

"Mum, I'm fine" Zayn tells, holding back his breath. He'll be fine, in time. He has to be.

"Are you sure?" His mother asks.

"Yes. Here's the money for Safaa" Zayn tells, handing his mother the money that Liam have given him, did he give this amount of money to Zayn in exchange of what happened between the both of them? Was that how low he looked at Zayn? And Zayn just felt disgusted with himself.

Zayn slept for three hours, before he started his day again. He was again heading to work, where he'll see Liam's face again, and he wasn't ready to see his face. But, he needed this job for his college, it would help him a lot, and thats all that he really needs.

Zayn walks in the building, his senses telling him not to, but he knew he had to. He saw Liam in a distance holding Harry's hand, and Zayn is just really disgusted, because although, how family-like they looked right now, Liam and Zayn both knew that last night happened, and Zayn stopped himself from thinking a lot about it, because to be honest, he had no right. Zayn should've known from last night, that it was a one time thing, never repeating again.

"Good Morning, Sir" Zayn greets his boss, before reaching his table and starts his work.

"Who are you again?" Harry asks behind him.

"He's my assistant, Harry, remember?" Liam answers the question.

"Uhm, Liam, I think I was asking him... You will just never learn" Harry rolls his eyes and leaves Liam, and walks away, and right now, Zayn understands whats happening with his boss. Liam enters his office and closes the door behind him leaving him and Zayn on his chair inside Liam's office.

"Why do you let him treat you like that?" Zayn asks, not looking at Liam, instead he's looking at the computer screen [monitor], and types whatever he had to type away.

"What are you talking about?" Liam asks, as he was caught off guard.

"I'm talking about Mr. Styles, Liam"

"I don't think that's any of your business, Zayn. And you're supposed to call me Mr. Payne" Liam answers, earning a frown from Zayn. Well, it just proved Zayn theory, that he was nothing but a one time thing. Just a one time thing.
