Tell me if this offends anyone, please, I will immediately delete it. (A comment or DM will work, whatever you prefer, though just mentioning, a comment might reach me faster.)

Zayn sat on the sidelines, watching his friends Liam, Louis, Niall, and Harry engage in a lively game of football. He loved the camaraderie they shared, the laughter that filled the air, but a tinge of sadness gripped his heart. He had been diagnosed with Crohn's disease just a few weeks ago, and he hadn't mustered the courage to tell his friends yet. Fear of being left alone with his struggles consumed him, but today, something unexpected would happen that would change everything.

As the game progressed, Zayn found himself in the role of the goalkeeper. He stood tall, determined to protect his team's goal with every fiber of his being. The ball whizzed across the field, and Zayn's reflexes kicked in as he dove to block a powerful shot. But fate had a different plan. The ball hit a rough patch of grass, changing its trajectory at the last moment.

Time seemed to slow down as the ball struck Zayn right in the stomach. A sharp pain shot through his body, and he felt the warmth spread quickly. The unthinkable had happened; he had an accident and soiled his pants. Panic and embarrassment washed over him, and he desperately looked around, hoping no one had noticed.

But Liam, Louis, Niall, and Harry had seen everything. They rushed towards Zayn, concern etched on their faces. Liam knelt beside him, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Zayn, are you okay? What happened?"

Zayn's voice quivered with humiliation as he replied, "I... I had an accident. I'm so sorry, guys. I didn't mean to ruin the game."

Louis shook his head, his voice filled with compassion. "Zayn, accidents happen. Don't be sorry. Are you hurt? Do you need any help?"

Zayn's eyes filled with tears as he struggled to hold back his emotions. "It's not just an accident, guys. I have Crohn's disease. I was diagnosed a few weeks ago, and I didn't tell you because... because I was scared of being alone."

Niall placed a hand on Zayn's back, his voice full of empathy. "Mate, you should have told us. We're your friends, and we're here for you no matter what. We all have our struggles, and we stick together through thick and thin."

Harry nodded in agreement. "Zayn, you're not alone in this. We know people who have Crohn's disease, and it's more common than you think. We'll support you every step of the way."

Zayn felt a mix of relief and gratitude wash over him. He wiped away his tears and managed a weak smile. "Thank you, guys. I'm sorry for not telling you earlier. I was just scared."

Liam enveloped Zayn in a warm hug. "No need to apologize, Zayn. We understand. We're here for you, and we always will be."

In that moment, Zayn realized the true meaning of friendship. His friends had shown him unwavering support and understanding, embracing him despite his fears and insecurities. They continued to play football, but now, Zayn felt a renewed sense of strength and comfort. Though his journey with Crohn's disease would have its challenges, he knew he would never face them alone with Liam, Louis, Niall, and Harry by his side.
