INT. ZAYN'S BEDROOM - MORNING

The morning light spills through the curtains, casting a soft glow on the room. Zayn, a 16-year-old boy with autism, stirs awake. He blinks his eyes and realizes he has wet the bed. Panic washes over his face as he tries to comprehend the situation. He knows he needs help.

Zayn glances at the clock on his bedside table. It reads 5:30 AM. He knows his friends, Liam, Louis, Harry, and Niall, are still fast asleep. Determined, Zayn musters up his courage and decides to wake them.

He walks down the hallway, his pajamas clinging to his legs. Zayn reaches Liam's room first and gently knocks on the door. There's no response. He knocks again, this time a little louder. Still nothing. Zayn starts to feel anxious, but he doesn't give up.

Next, he heads to Louis' room. Zayn pushes open the door and finds Louis sprawled out on his bed, snoring softly. Zayn tugs at Louis' shirt sleeve, trying to get his attention. Louis stirs but doesn't fully wake up.

Zayn moves on to Harry's room. He opens the door and finds Harry curled up under the covers, his face buried in the pillow. Zayn taps Harry's shoulder, a desperate plea for help. Harry mumbles something incoherent, but it's clear he's still asleep.

Feeling increasingly frustrated, Zayn makes his way to Niall's room. He turns the doorknob and peeks inside. Niall is lying on his side, facing away from the door. Zayn approaches the bed and gently shakes Niall's shoulder, hoping to rouse him. Niall stirs but doesn't wake up.

Zayn's anxiety reaches its peak. He's tried everything he can think of, but his friends are still oblivious to his distress. Tears well up in his eyes as he realizes he might have to face this situation alone.

Just as Zayn's hope begins to fade, he hears footsteps approaching from behind him. Liam, the first friend he tried to wake, stands in the hallway, rubbing his eyes sleepily. He notices Zayn's wet pajamas and the tears on his cheeks.

LIAM
(Concerned)
Zayn, what's wrong? Are you okay?

Zayn looks up at Liam, relief flooding his face. He throws his arms around Liam in a tight embrace, grateful for his friend's understanding.

ZAYN
(Nonverbal, but expressing gratitude)
Mmm.

Liam wraps his arms around Zayn, offering comfort and support.

LIAM
(Whispering softly)
It's alright, Zayn. We're here for you. Let's get you cleaned up, okay?

Zayn nods, feeling a sense of relief wash over him. Finally, he has found someone who understands and is willing to help him through this embarrassing situation. As they walk back to Zayn's room, Liam's words of reassurance echo in Zayn's mind, reminding him that he's never alone, even in his most vulnerable moments.
