(Zayn’s POV)

“What do you mean Maggie and Maddie are gone? They can’t just disappear!” Lilly shouted. For the past hour we’ve been trying to find them, but they’re just gone. The left no note and clearly the left no evidence of where they’re going.

“We will find them love. I mean, they’ve taken all of their stuff, but their phones. They’re probably just on their way home. They probably couldn’t handle this.” Liam was calming the girls down as we tried to get ahold of somebody back home so they could check if the had just gone back home. I on the other hand haven’t been doing much. I’ve helped look but I really don’t see what the big deal is. I mean if she doesn’t care about my feelings why the hell should I care about her location?

“I just hope they’re okay. I will never forgive myself if something happens to them.” Angie said sitting next to me on the couch.

“Jesus. They’re both 18 or over and capable of living on their own wherever they may be. So why don’t you all sit down and calm down.” I said with a huff.

“Okay, listen. I understand she dumped your sorry ass, and I’m not that sympathetic for you. You cheated on her, just when she needed you. So, I’m fucking glad she broke up with you. She doesn’t need you bringing her down. I know you still care about her, don’t act like you don’t. Part of the reason she left, I’m sure, is because she can’t handle the damn media who shouldn’t even be focusing on her. Now, you’re going to get your ass up and help us find them because if they are hurt and we could have done something to help them I will literally never forgive myself and I will make sure you don’t forget. Got it?” Lilly threw a pillow at me and walked out the door with Angie. Everybody in the house got really quiet.

I gulped, everybody staring at me. “Uhm, has anybody gotten ahold of Andy or Maz? They could check their houses for us?”

“They’re not going to be anywhere we can find them, or would expect them to be.” Liam said as if it was obvious.

“Well, lets go see if they went to the airport, I mean that’s somewhere, right?” I asked. We put on our shoes and drove to the airport, not even bothering to tell the girls.

“You stay here, I’ll go in and ask. I’ll be back soon. We don’t have time for a signing.” Liam said putting a hat on and sunglasses. Lilly’s right, I’m worried fucking sick if they’re okay. I’ll never forgive myself if something happens to them.

(Liam’s POV)

I walked into the airport, keeping my head down so nobody would recognize my face. I jogged up to the window and saw a lady about 30 leaning against the wall reading a magazine with some stupid story about how Zayn and Maggie broke up. Why can’t they give them so personal space?

“Hello Love, have you seen two girls who look like this, they probably left about twelve hours ago?” I said looking at the clock. I showed her a picture of Maggie and Maddie hugging from one of the nights they were at a club.

“Oh those two? Yeah they were here about 4 in the morning. They’re still on a flight somewhere. Why you needa know?” My heart dropped down to my stomach.

“Where are they going? They’re our friends and we really need to find them. They left without telling us. Ma’am please tell me.” I begged.

“Sorry son, I can’t give out that information.” Fine. Play that way.
