INT. CAR - DAY

Zayn, Liam, Louis, Niall, and Harry are on a road trip, driving back home. Zayn, who is autistic, is behind the wheel, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. With each passing mile, his need to pee becomes more urgent. He glances at the road signs, desperately searching for the nearest rest stop.

ZAYN
(whispering to himself)
Come on, Zayn. Just a little longer. You can hold it.

Zayn's friends are engrossed in their conversation, unaware of his growing discomfort. Zayn squirms in his seat, fidgeting nervously, trying to distract himself from the increasing pressure in his bladder. He bounces his leg up and down, hoping it will alleviate the urge.

The minutes tick by, and Zayn's desperation intensifies. He crosses and uncrosses his legs, his face contorting with the effort of holding on. Desperation takes hold of him, and he surreptitiously presses his hand against his crotch, trying to relieve some of the pressure.

Zayn's face contorts with a mixture of pain and embarrassment as he realizes he can't hold it any longer. His body betrays him, and a small trickle escapes, wetting his light gray sweatpants. Panic sets in as he glances at the seat, the growing stain becoming more noticeable.

ZAYN
(whispering to himself)
No, no, no. I can't believe this is happening.

Zayn's heart sinks as he envisions the boys' reactions if they were to find out. Fear grips him, and he decides to hide the accident until they reach home. As they near their destination, Zayn musters a weak smile.

ZAYN
(strained voice)
Hey, guys, just give me a minute. I need to grab something from the car before we head inside.

His friends nod and continue toward the house, unaware of Zayn's inner turmoil. As they disappear from view, Zayn takes a deep breath, his body trembling with shame and humiliation. Tears well up in his eyes as he finally allows himself to break down.

Zayn's cries echo through the empty car. He feels the weight of his secret pressing down on him, the shame becoming unbearable. Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approaches, and Liam appears, having forgotten something.

LIAM
(concerned)
Zayn? What's wrong?

Zayn's voice cracks as he tries to speak through his sobs.

ZAYN
I... I had an accident, Liam. I couldn't hold it anymore. I wet myself.

Liam's eyes widen with surprise and empathy. He rushes toward Zayn, wrapping his arms around him in a comforting embrace.

LIAM
Oh, Zayn. It's okay. I'm so sorry you had to go through that alone. You should have told us.

Zayn clings to Liam, his tears soaking into his friend's shirt. The weight of his secret is lifted, replaced by the warmth of understanding and acceptance.

ZAYN
(sobbing)
I was scared you'd all be mad at me, especially since it's your car.

LIAM
Zayn, accidents happen, especially under these circumstances. We're your friends, and we care about you. Never be afraid to reach out for help or share your struggles with us.

Zayn sniffles, feeling a sense of relief and gratitude wash over him. In that moment, he realizes the importance of opening up and trusting his friends.

ZAYN
Thank you, Liam. I'm sorry.

LIAM
No need to apologize, mate. Let's get you cleaned up and make sure you're okay.

Liam helps Zayn out of the car, their friendship strengthened by this vulnerable moment. Together, they walk toward the house, leaving the weight of shame and embarrassment behind them.
