16 ~ Zayn Malik

F I V E

-Next Morning (Monday)-

I just woke up and it's 10:30. Just like I expected, the boys weren't here. They have meetings after meetings today. I got up and threw on a pair of shorts and a shirt and grabbed my purse. I walked all around treating myself to things. It kind of felt lonely but I'd rather be by myself than with Perrie. I actually had 2 paparazzi after me but I've come to learn to ignore them. I walked back to the hotel. The boys were finally back. "We just had dinner, well except Zayn, but we're going out to the pool. Wanna come?" Asked Niall. "No thanks. I'm pretty tired of walking around all day." I said and he shrugged and walked off with the rest of the boys. Except Zayn. Obviously. My phone rang. King<3 read on the screen. "Yeah?" I asked. "Are you in your room or out with the boys?" He asked. "Room."

 I said. "I'm coming over." He hung up and I walked over to the door to open it. He walked in and I closed it. "Is everything okay?" I asked. "I-I need another smoke and this urge is about to beat me. I swear I'm going to turn crazy." He said pacing back and forth. "Zayn. Stop. Okay look at me." I said and he looked down at me. God those sparkling brown eyes. "Just breathe-" He went for it again. And just like yesterday, it was perfect and amazing and words honestly can't describe how I feel right now. I kissed back until Perrie's face began to pop in my head. "I've been waiting so many years to do that." He breathed heavily.

I can't anymore and just like him, my urge is beating me too, no matter the consequences. This time, I went for it. But her face kept popping up and I stopped. "Zayn..we can't just be kissing around.." I finally said. "I know.." He said. "So whatever happened?" I asked. "She forgave me..." He said sitting on the bed and I sighed. "And where is she?" I questioned taking a seat next to him. "Out." He said. "Hey, are you hungry?" He added. "Sort of." I said. "Wanna go out to dinner with me?" He asked. "Yeah, let me go change."

I put on a black crop top with a crème white skirt. I walked out of the bathroom. He looked up from his phone and smiled. "Ready." I said. He stood up and we walked out to the car where he insisted in letting the driver take a break, meaning he's driving. After a while of driving, we arrived at Dan Tana's Italian restaurant. We got off and walked inside. "Hi, how many- Oh. My. God." Said the hostess and Zayn smiled. "Ah Mr.Malik, your reserved table." Said the owner as hostess took a seat, almost passing out. We walked to the isolated side of the restaurant.

"Here are the menus." He said walking away. "Words can't describe how happy I am for you to come on tour with me." He said. "It seems like just yesterday I was backstage with you, helping you get ready for your audition." I said. "I know! These past few years have gone so fast yet so slow." He admitted. "So how's the fame Zayn?" I asked. "It can be great but not so great. I'm stressed, I don't get enough time with fans, I'm homesick but since you've been here, it hasn't been as bad." He said and I smiled.

We're halfway eating. Guess who stormed in? "Zayn! What are you doing here with her?! You and I should be having dinner together." She stomped her foot. "Lets go this instant!" She said and he stood up as he put money on the table. He gave me a glance before walking away. By the time I stood up they were already out the door. When I got outside, the car was gone. Really!?! He just fucking left me here alone! 9 miles away from the hotel! NINE! I called Liam and Paul but none answered. I have no money for a cab so I guess I'll have to get my way around here. I asked for directions almost every block.

I arrived to the hotel at midnight, now. I'm tired, my feet are throbbing and I'm beyond pissed off. I walked into the room to find 4/5 in there looking worried. "Oh my god where have you been!?" Asked Louis. "I called you as soon as I saw your missed call but you never answered." Said Liam. "Are you okay?" "Are you hurt?" "Where have you been?" They asked at once. "Why don't you ask the one who's not here." I said walking into the bathroom and they followed. I turned on the shower faucet and washed my feet.

"What did he do this time?" Asked Harry. "He took me out to dinner. Everything was going perfectly fine, we were getting along and laughing just like old times. Perrie stormed in and demanded Zayn to leave with her. The puppy followed her out leaving money for the food. I walked out and he left me all alone. I had no money so I had to walk 9 fucking miles here! I took off my heels and stepped all over pebbles and my feet fucking hurt! PLUS I ran a fucking mile because I was being followed by a creep, telling me to go back to his place!" I screamed getting my frustration out on them.

I sighed. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell at you-" I said. "It's okay Eris. You're obviously really mad and I am too. That was a dick move and he's never gonna hear the end of it." Said Liam. "I'm tired. I just want to lay down." I said. Lou came over and kissed my head. "You still have us okay." He said and I smiled as he walked out. "I'm gonna go call Paul and tell him you're okay. I'll be back." Said Liam stepping out.

Liam's P.O.V~

I walked right outside Zayn's room and called Paul. "Yes she's ok Paul, she just got back. She walked 9 miles here and almost got raped but she's absolutely perfect. Tired and sore but perfect...she came walking! I'm not sure from where..yes she was..she can tell you...ok bye Paul." I hung up and turned around to see Zayn and my blood boiled.

 "Is she here?" He asked. "Why the fuck do you care!? You fucking left her all alone! With no money to get a taxi! She walked 9 miles just to get here! She has cuts on her feet because she wasn't looking where she was running. You wanna know why she was running? She was running away from a guy who wanted to pleasure himself! She almost got raped because of you! She could've died and it would've been all your fucking fault! Every fucking command Perrie gives you, you fucking obey!" I yelled at him.

 "I'm not a dog!" He yelled in return. "So stop acting like one! Your best friend is in there crying because of you! She trusts you with her life Zayn! And you fucking let her down! You're supposed to be the one fighting anyone who hurts her, not be the one to hurt her." I said breathing heavily.

Calm down Liam. He's one of your best mates and you don't want to regret anything even though he deserves getting the shit beat out of him. He began walking to her room. "Don't you even dare go in there. Not after everything you put her through today." I said. "I'm her best friend." He said. "No Zayn you're not! Not until you get your head out of Perrie's ass and see what you're missing!" I yelled. "Don't you talk about my fiancé." He warned. "She can talk shit all she wants but when we do it, you want to fucking murder us. Hit me Zayn. Go ahead and hit me. In the end, I'm just backing up a true friend who I truly care for." I said walking into Harry's room and closed the door. I went and hugged Eris as she cried. I'm pretty sure she heard everything. After a couple minutes of crying, she said she wanted to sleep, so I walked out to let her rest.
